Item 8.01 – Other Events.
On July 13, 2018, Goldman Sachs BDC, Inc. (the “Company”) reconvened its special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to vote on a proposal to authorize the Company, with the approval of the Company’s board of directors, to sell or otherwise issue shares of the Company’s common stock (during the 12 months following such stockholder authorization) at a price below the then-current net asset value per share, provided the number of shares issued does not exceed 25% of its then-outstanding common stock. The Special Meeting was originally scheduled for June 15, 2018 but was adjourned until July 13, 2018 in order to allow stockholders more time to vote on the proposal as sufficient votes had not been received to reach quorum to hold the meeting. Because the Company did not obtain the necessary votes to satisfy a quorum at the reconvened Special Meeting held on July 13, 2018, the Company closed the reconvened Special Meeting without conducting any business.
