The following individuals, each of whom was nominated for election to the Board of Directors by the Company, was elected by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting for a term of three years expiring at the 2026 Annual Meeting of shareholders.

The nomination of each of the above listed directors was made by the Board of Directors of the Company. Mr. Zimmer was completing a three year term as a member of the Board of Directors at the date of the Annual Meeting and each of Mr. Lisman and Mr. Liebau were first nominated for appointment to the Board, following recommendation from a Company shareholder, in connection with the 2023 Annual Meeting.

The terms of the following directors continued after the Annual Meeting: Harold M. Stratton II (until the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders); Thomas W. Florsheim, Jr. (until the 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders); Tina Chang (until the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders); and Frank J. Krejci (until the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders).

The shareholders voted at the Annual Meeting in favor of the compensation of the Company's named executive officers as disclosed in the Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting.

The shareholders voted to recommend that the Company include an advisory vote on the compensation of the Company's named executive officers pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") every year.

In accordance with the shareholder voting results, in which every "One Year" received the highest number of votes cast on the frequency proposal, and the Board of Directors' recommendation in the Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting, future shareholder non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation will continue to occur every one year.  Accordingly, the next shareholder non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation will be held at the Company's 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.  The next required shareholder non-binding advisory vote regarding the frequency interval will be held in six years at the Company's 2029 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
