On May 19, 2020, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.06 per share of its common stock.  The dividend is payable on July 8, 2020 to stockholders of record on June 19, 2020. 

On May 21, 2020, the Company issued a press release regarding the annual meeting results, the election of Ms. Jacobs as a new director and the announcement of the cash dividend. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
