     The stockholders approved, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s executive officers by the votes set forth in the table below:

Proposal III.

   

     The stockholders recommended the frequency with which the Company should hold its advisory vote on executive compensation, as set forth below:

 

One Year:

For:

      85,076,111   

Against:

      599,618   

Abstain:
