SPOK HOLDINGS, INC. (SPOK) Files An 8-K Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On July 25, 2016, Spok Holdings, Inc. (the Company) held its 2016
Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the Annual Meeting). There were
20,547,871 shares of common stock eligible to vote, of which
19,184,472 shares were represented by proxy at the Annual
Meeting. The purpose of the Annual Meeting was to elect eight
directors; to ratify the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as the
Companys independent registered public accounting firm for the
year ending December 31, 2016; to approve, on an advisory basis,
the compensation of the Companys named executive officers (the
NEOs); and to approve the Spok Holdings, Inc. 2016 Employee Stock
Purchase Plan (“2016 ESPP”). No other business was transacted.
Nominees for election to the Board of Directors were approved by
a plurality of the votes properly cast by holders of the common
stock present by proxy at the Annual Meeting, each share being
entitled to one vote. Shares withheld from voting on the election
of directors, including broker non-votes, had no effect on the
outcome of the election of directors. Eight directors were
elected to hold office until the next annual meeting and until
their respective successors have been elected or appointed.
The results of the election of the directors; the ratification of
the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP; the advisory vote on the
compensation of the Companys NEOs; and the vote on the 2016 ESPP;
were as follows:
