For item 3, the Board of Directors recommended an advisory vote frequency of “One Year” for the future non-binding advisory resolutions to approve the compensation of our named executive officers.

A shareholder advisory vote on the frequency of the shareholder advisory vote on the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers is required to be held at least once every six years.
