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

On June 23, 2015, the Company held its 2015 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). The proposals considered at the Annual Meeting are described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting as filed with the SEC on April 10, 2015 (the “Proxy”). At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved each of the proposals described in the Proxy before the Annual Meeting was adjourned. As of April 8, 2015, the record date, 178,391,749 shares of common stock were eligible to vote, of which 104,205,171 shares, or approximately 58.4%, were present to vote by proxy or in person.

First Proposal. The Company’s stockholders elected five directors of the Company (the “Directors”), who will serve until the 2016 annual meeting of stockholders and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. The Directors were elected pursuant to the voting results set forth below:

 

Name    For      Withheld  

Richard D. Kincaid

     55,826,592         2,507,657   

John A. Blumberg

     55,789,202         2,545,047   

Charles B. Duke

     55,715,376         2,618,873   

Daniel J. Sullivan

     55,746,604         2,587,645   

John P. Woodberry

     55,814,993         2,519,256   

Second Proposal. The Company’s stockholders ratified the appointment of KPMG LLP to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2015, as set forth below:

 

For   Against   Abstain
100,250,163   1,258,584   2,696,424

Third Proposal. The Company’s stockholders approved the Second Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan, as set forth below:

 

For   Against   Abstain
50,550,162   3,513,062   4,271,025

Fourth Proposal. The Company’s stockholders approved the Amended and Restated Secondary Equity Incentive Plan, as set forth below:

 

For   Against   Abstain
50,409,801   3,635,283   4,289,165

With respect to (i) each of the five director nominees, (ii) the third proposal, and (iii) the fourth proposal, the Company received 45,870,922 broker non-votes. Broker non-votes are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker holding shares of the Company’s common stock for a beneficial owner is present at the meeting, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote, but does not vote on a particular proposal because the broker does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item and has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner. A broker non-vote is not an indication of how the beneficial owner would have voted; it simply means that the beneficial owner did not instruct the broker as to how to vote his or her shares.
