Item 5.07.Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

On May 30 and June 11, 2019, we held a special meeting of stockholders. Proxies were solicited pursuant to our definitive proxy statement filed on April 22, 2019 with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

The number of shares of the Corporation’s common stock entitled to vote at the special meeting was 11,972,328. The number of shares of common stock present or represented by valid proxy at the special meeting was 8,155,970. Each share of common stock was entitled to one vote with respect to matters submitted to the Corporation’s stockholders at the annual meeting.

 

Our stockholders were asked to vote upon and approve an amendment to the Corporation’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to authorize the Board of Directors, if in their judgement it is necessary, to effect a reverse stock split of the Corporation’s outstanding common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, at a whole number ratio in the range of 1-for-6 to 1-for-9, such ratio to be determined in the sole discretion of the Corporation’s Board of Directors, and authorize the Board of Directors to file such amendment, if in their judgement it is necessary.

 

As of May 30, 2019, although 72% of returned votes were in favor of the reverse split, only 38.5% of the outstanding shares voted in favor. We adjourned the special meeting until June 11, 2019 at 10 am at the same location in order to allow more shareholders to vote.

 

On May 11, 2019 we reconvened the special meeting and our stockholders approved the reverse stock split. The votes on this proposal were as follows:

 

FOR AGAINST ABSTAIN
6,451,354 1,681,392 23,224
