Material Changes and Voting Results
The following matters were submitted to a vote of security holders:
- Election of Directors: All six nominees (Ryan Edone, Duncan Gage, Eric Lipar, Bryan Sansbury, Steven Smith, and Robert Vahradian) were elected to one-year terms. While all received majority support, nominees Bryan Sansbury, Steven Smith, and Robert Vahradian received significant "withheld" votes compared to the other directors.
- Ratification of Auditors: The appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018, was ratified with overwhelming support.
- Executive Compensation (Say-on-Pay): The advisory vote to approve compensation paid to named executive officers for 2017 was approved.
- Frequency of Say-on-Pay: Stockholders voted to hold future advisory votes on executive compensation annually (1-year frequency). Consequently, the Board determined to hold a non-binding advisory vote every year until the next required frequency vote.
