07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. At the Annual Meeting, the Company's stockholders voted, on an advisory basis, on the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of the Company's named executive officers (the "Say-on-Frequency Proposal"). As reported in the Initial 8-K, the option of "every one year" received the highest number of votes cast by stockholders on the Say-on-Frequency Proposal. Based on the Company's prior practice of annual advisory votes on compensation of its named executive officers and the results of the advisory vote on the Say-on-Frequency Proposal, the Board of Directors has determined that the Company will hold a stockholder advisory vote on the compensation of the Company's named executive officers every year until the next required stockholder vote on frequency of advisory votes on the compensation of the Company's named executive officers, which is required to occur no later than the Company's annual meeting of stockholders in 2031.
