The number of votes cast for or against and the number of abstentions with respect to each proposal is set forth below. The Company's independent inspector of election reported the vote of the stockholders as follows:
Proposal No.1 - To elect nine directors to the Board of Directors to serve until the annual stockholders’ meeting in 2025, and until their respective successors have been elected and qualified.
