Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On September 14, 2021, New Senior Investment Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (“New Senior”), held a virtual special meeting of its stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to vote on the proposals identified in the definitive proxy statement of New Senior prepared in connection with the Merger (as defined below), which also constitutes a prospectus of Ventas, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ventas”), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 11, 2021 (as supplemented on September 7, 2021), which was first mailed to New Senior’s stockholders on August 11, 2021.

As of the close of business on August 6, 2021, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 84,063,182 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of New Senior (“New Senior Common Stock”) issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. 74.03% of all of the shares of issued and outstanding New Senior Common Stock entitled to vote were represented either virtually or by proxy at the Special Meeting. The tables below detail the voting results for each proposal:

 

1.

Proposal to adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 28, 2021 (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among New Senior, Ventas and Cadence Merger Sub LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a subsidiary of Ventas (“Merger Sub”), and thereby approve the merger of Merger Sub with and into New Senior (the “Merger”), with New Senior continuing as the surviving corporation and a subsidiary of Ventas (the “Merger Proposal”).

Set forth below are the voting results for the Merger Proposal.

2.

Proposal to approve, by advisory (non-binding) vote, the compensation that may be paid or become payable to the named executive officers of New Senior in connection with transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Non-Binding Compensation Proposal”).

Set forth below are the voting results for the Non-Binding Compensation Proposal.

3.

In connection with the Special Meeting, New Senior also solicited proxies with respect to the adjournment of the Special Meeting from time to time, if necessary or appropriate, (i) to solicit additional proxies in favor of the Merger Proposal if there are insufficient votes at the time of such adjournment to approve such proposal or (ii) if required to enable New Senior or Ventas to comply with the requirement in the Merger Agreement to provide notice to the other party 10 business days prior to the Special Meeting if it has determined that it is necessary to pay a REIT Dividend (as defined in the Merger Agreement) but is unable to provide such notice on or before the date that is 10 business days prior to the then-scheduled Special Meeting (the “Adjournment Proposal”). As there were sufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Merger Proposal, the Adjournment Proposal was unnecessary and such proposal was not submitted to the New Senior stockholders for approval at the Special Meeting.
