Results: For Proposal (1), all director nominees were elected to the Board. Proposals (2) and (3) were approved by shareholders. For Proposal (4), which was advisory in nature, shareholders voted in favor of conducting future shareholder advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year. For proposal (5), which was advisory in nature, shareholders approved the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.

Consistent with its recommendation to shareholders and the result of the shareholder vote on Proposal 4 discussed above, the Board of Directors of the Company decided to hold an advisory vote to approve the Company’s compensation paid to named executive officers (“Say-on-pay Vote”) every year. Accordingly, the Company expects to hold a Say-on-pay Vote every year until and including the year the Company holds another advisory vote on the frequency upon which the Company will seek Say-on-pay Votes, which will be no later than its Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2019.
