Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders


Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

On June 29, 2012, the Company held its annual meeting of shareholders. The following proposals were submitted to the holders of the Company's capital stock for a vote:

(1) The election of seven (7) directors to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders, and until their successors shall be duly elected and qualified; and

(2) The ratification of the appointment of Padgett, Stratemann & Co., LLP, as independent public auditors of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.

At the meeting, 9,269,799 share of the Company's capital stock were represented, or 83.44% of the Company's voting capital stock. Securities brokers are not permitted to vote shares held in brokerage accounts on non-routine matters, including the election of directors, unless the beneficial owner of the shares gives specific instructions on how to vote. Accordingly, many of the proxies that were returned did not vote shares in the election of directors. In contrast, brokers were permitted to cast votes regarding ratification of auditors, even if they did not receive instructions from the beneficial owner of the shares.

The voting results were as follows:

(1) Election of directors. All seven nominees were elected to serve until the 2013 annual meeting, and until their successors are duly elected and qualified.
