Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

On June 3, 2013, the Company filed a Form 8-K (the “Original 8-K”) reporting the results of its 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. As reported in the Original 8-K, in a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future say-on-pay votes, 11,366,380 shares were voted in favor of having say-on-pay votes every year, 281,389 shares were voted in favor of having say-on-pay votes every two years, 6,178,514 shares were voted in favor of having say-on-pay votes every three years, 292,617 shares abstained and there were 15,151,838 broker non-votes.

The Company’s Board of Directors has carefully considered the outcome of this advisory vote and has determined, after such consideration, that it is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to hold say-on-pay advisory votes every three years (as the Board recommended in the Proxy Statement for the Company’s 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders), rather than every year or every other year. The frequency of say-on-pay advisory votes with respect to the compensation of the Company’s executive officers may be reconsidered in the future (and, under applicable rules, must be put forward again to the Company’s stockholders for their consideration and input no later than the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders).
