Item 8.01. Other Events.

At a meeting on June 15, 2017 held after the Annual Meeting of
Shareholders, the Company’s Board of Directors discussed the
appropriate frequency for holding advisory votes on named
executive officer compensation, taking into consideration the
voting results on this matter at the Annual Meeting of
Shareholders and the preference expressed by shareholders
during their engagement with the Company, and decided that,
subject to the closing of the Company’s pending merger with
ATT Inc., the Company will hold future advisory votes on named
executive officer compensation on an annual basis. Based on the
expected timing of the merger, the Company does not expect to
hold another annual meeting of shareholders and, thus, does not
expect to provide shareholders another advisory vote on named
executive officer compensation.
