Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
The Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. (the “Registrant”) was held on March 24, 2016 (the “Meeting”).
The Registrant’s stockholders voted on proposals to: (i) elect directors; (ii) ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Registrant’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016; and (iii) approve on a non-binding advisory basis the compensation of our named executive officers.
All nominees for election to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) as directors were elected to serve until the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their respective successors are elected and qualified, or until the earlier of such director’s death, resignation or removal. The stockholders also ratified the selection of the independent registered public accountants and, on a non-binding advisory basis, did not approve the compensation of our named executive officers.
The number of votes cast for, against or withheld and the number of abstentions and broker non-votes with respect to each proposal is set forth below:

At the Meeting, Selwyn Joffe, the Chief Executive Officer of the Registrant, announced that Mel Marks, passed away on March 12, 2016. Since Mr. Marks passed away after the proxy materials for the Meeting were mailed, he was included as a nominee for election as a director in the proxy materials; however, in light of Mr. Marks’ passing, Mr. Marks was not included as one of the nominees for election as a director at the Meeting. The persons named as proxies in the form of proxy that accompanied the proxy statement did not exercise the discretionary authority granted to them to vote for an alternative nominee. Accordingly, there is currently a vacancy on the Board. Under the Registrant’s Amended and Restated By-laws, as amended, this vacancy may be filled by a majority of the directors in office after the vacancy has occurred.
