(6) No vote is being reported for a shareholder proposal to stop
100-1 voting power because it was not presented at the annual
meeting by the shareholder proponent or a designee of the
shareholder proponent as required, and therefore, was not
acted upon by the shareholders. However, if the shareholder
proposal had been acted upon, this proposal would have been
defeated by over a majority of the votes cast based on
proxies delivered prior to the closing of the polls for the
annual meeting.
(d) As noted above, over a majority of the votes cast by
shareholders voted to hold our advisory vote on executive
compensation every year. As such, the Board of Directors has
decided that it will include an advisory vote on executive
compensation in our proxy statements every year until the
next required advisory vote on the frequency of the executive
compensation vote.
