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

The 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of ModusLink Global Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) was held pursuant to notice at The Beverly Wilshire Hotel, 9500 Wilshire Boulevard, Beverly Hills, California, on December 9, 2014. The final voting results for each of the proposals submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company at the Annual Meeting are set forth below.

Proposal 1 – Election of Class III directors.

Mr. Fenton and Mr. Wald have each been elected to hold office until the 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until his successor is duly elected and qualified.

Proposal 2 was not approved as a result of the following vote:

Proposal 3 – To approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers. Proposal 3 was approved by the following vote:
