As of the record date, June 28, 2017, there were 32,212,469 shares of Company Common Stock eligible to be voted at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, 26,742,291 shares, or approximately 83.01% of all outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, were present either in person or by proxy. Two matters were voted upon at the special meeting, with the Company’s Board of Directors recommending a vote “FOR” in connection with each of the proposals voted upon, as further described in the definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on June 29, 2017 and as supplemented on July 20, 2017 (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”).

Proposal No. 1 (the “Merger Proposal”) was to consider and vote on the proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement.

Proposal No. 2 (the “Adjournment Proposal”) was to consider and vote on any proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates if necessary or appropriate to solicit additional proxies if there were insufficient votes to adopt the Merger Agreement at the time of the Special Meeting.
