Item 5.07
|
Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
|
The registrant held its 2011 annual meeting of stockholders on May 25, 2011. At the close of business on the record date for the annual meeting 2,375,307 shares of the registrant’s class A common stock and 10,000,000 shares of the registrant’s class B common stock were issued and outstanding and eligible to vote at the meeting. Each share of the registrant’s class A common stock entitles its holder to one vote. Each share of the registrant’s class B common stock entitles its holder to ten votes with respect to the election of directors and one vote on all other matters.
At the 2011 annual meeting, the registrant’s stockholders voted on the three proposals described in detail in the registrant’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 25, 2011. Stockholders present at the 2011 annual meeting, either in person or by proxy, represented 98.1% of the 12,375,307 votes eligible at the meeting to vote on all matters other than the election of directors and 99.8% of the 102,375,307 votes eligible at the meeting for the election of each director nominee.
Proposal 1: Election of Directors
The registrant’s stockholders elected David A. Bowers, Serena S. Connelly, Norman S. Edelcup, Edward J. Hardin, Ann Manix, Glenn R. Simmons and Steven L. Watson as directors. Each director nominee received votes “For” his election from at least 99.0% of the eligible votes for the election of each director.
Proposal 2: Say-on-Pay, Nonbinding Advisory Vote Approving Executive Compensation
The registrant’s stockholders adopted a resolution, on a nonbinding advisory basis, approving the compensation of the registrant’s named executive officers as described in the registrant’s 2011 proxy statement. The resolution received the approval from 98.0% of the eligible votes for this proposal at the annual meeting.
Proposal 3: Say-When-on-Pay, Nonbinding Advisory Vote on the Preferred Frequency of Executive Compensation Votes
The registrant’s stockholders voted, on a nonbinding advisory basis, on the preferred frequency of every year, every other year or every third year for future advisory votes on the named executive officer compensation as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. An annual vote on such named executive officer compensation received the vote of 97.4% of the eligible votes for this proposal at the annual meeting. In light of the results of this nonbinding advisory vote, the registrant currently intends in the future to hold an annual nonbinding advisory vote on such named executive officer compensation.
