Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

On September 25, 2018, First Connecticut Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") held a Special Meeting of Stockholders (the "Meeting") in Farmington, Connecticut. Of the 16,250,954 shares of the Company's common stock outstanding at the close of business as of August 20, 2018, the record date for the Meeting, 12,159,156 shares were present or represented by proxy at the Meeting, constituting a quorum to conduct business.

The voting results from the Meeting as to each proposal presented to stockholders (each of which proposals is described in greater detail in the definitive proxy statement filed by the Company with the Securities Exchange Commission on August 22, 2018) were as follows and were each approved by the stockholders by the requisite vote:

PROPOSAL 1: the approval of the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of June 18, 2018, by and between the Company and People's United Financial, Inc. and the transactions contemplated thereby (the "merger proposal"):

	Votes For	Votes Against	Votes Abstained	Broker Non-Votes
Common Stock	11,626,397	468,017	64,742	0

PROPOSAL 2: the approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the compensation that certain executive officers of the Company may receive that is based on or otherwise relates to the merger:

	Votes For	Votes Against	Votes Abstained	Broker Non-Votes
Common Stock	10,285,375	1,627,285	246,496	0

In connection with the Meeting, the Company also solicited proxies with respect to a proposal to adjourn the Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, in the event there were not sufficient votes in favor of the Merger Agreement at the time of the Meeting. The adjournment proposal was not submitted to the shareholders of the Company for approval at the Meeting because Company shareholders approved the Merger Agreement, as noted above.

Item 8.01. Other Events

On September 26, 2018, the Company issued a press release (1) announcing the results of the shareholder vote at the Meeting and (2) announcing the receipt of all required regulatory approvals to complete the merger of the Company with and into People's United Financial, Inc. The merger remains subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close on October 1, 2018. A copy of the press release, which is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1, is incorporated herein by reference.
