Proposal Three: Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes on Named Executive Officer Compensation

The Company’s shareholders selected “1 YEAR” as the preferred frequency at which the Company should hold an advisory vote on executive officer compensation. The final voting results were as follows:

The Company’s Board of Directors previously determined that the Company would automatically follow the vote of a majority of votes cast by shareholders in determining the frequency of future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation. The Company’s shareholders voted that the Company will hold future advisory votes on named executive compensation every year, as was recommended with respect to this proposal by the Company’s Board of Directors in the Company’s definitive Proxy Statement. Based on the results of the vote, and consistent with the Board of Directors’ recommendation, the Company has determined to continue to hold advisory votes on named executive officer compensation every year until the next shareholder advisory vote on the frequency of holding future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation, which shall be no later than the Company’s 2027 annual meeting of shareholders.

Proposal Four: Ratification of the Company’s Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Company’s shareholders ratified the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021, as follows:

The proposal to ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP was a routine matter and, therefore, there were no broker non-votes relating to that matter.
