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

 

As previously reported, on April 25, 2013, the Company held its 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). In its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 29, 2013, the Company reported the results of voting at the Annual Meeting, including the recommendation by its stockholders, on a non-binding and advisory basis, of a one-year frequency for non-binding and advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.

 

The Company is hereby amending its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 29, 2013 as stated herein and as added by item 5 below.

 

5.     In light of the recommendation at the Annual Meeting by its stockholders, on a non-binding and advisory basis, of a one-year frequency for non-binding and advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, the Company will hold future non-binding and advisory stockholder votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year until its next vote on the frequency of such stockholder advisory votes.
