of Directors as the Company&#146;s Class&nbsp;II Directors. Messrs.&nbsp;Casey and Musbach were the only candidates nominated for election as Class&nbsp;II Directors at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, the election of Directors was uncontested and
Messrs. Casey and Musbach were elected at the Annual Meeting to serve as the Class II Directors of the Company for a term of three years. The table below sets forth the respective numbers of votes cast for, and the respective numbers of votes
withheld from, their election. There were a total of 1,295,776 broker &#147;non-votes&#148; with respect to the election of directors. Broker non-votes are shares for which beneficial owners did not provide voting instructions to their brokers with
respect to the election of directors and which, therefore, were not counted as shares voted in the election of directors. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>
