Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

The 2014 annual meeting of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Cortland Bancorp (the “Company”) was called to order on May 27, 2014 and then adjourned to a later date without any business being conducted. Shortly before the Annual Meeting was scheduled to commence, the Company learned that its transfer agent would be unable to provide accurate voting tabulation results for any of the proposals to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. Although no official business was conducted at the meeting, management made a brief presentation of financial results and allowed time for shareholder questions. The Company will provide appropriate advance notice of the adjourned Annual Meeting, but the date of the rescheduled adjourned meeting has not yet been determined. The Company is in the process of selecting a new transfer agent.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued a press release on May 28, 2014 reporting that the SEC filed a complaint against Illinois Stock Transfer Company, the Company’s transfer agent, for multiple violations of the SEC’s transfer agent rules. The SEC press release and complaint are available at the SEC’s web site (http://www.sec.gov/News/PressRelease/Detail/Press Release/1370541926263). United States District Court Judge Rebecca R. Pallmeyer for the Northern District of Illinois issued an order under seal on May 22, 2014 appointing a receiver for Illinois Stock Transfer Company. The judicial order was unsealed on May 28, 2014.
