The information in Item 2.02 of this Current Report and Exhibit 99.1 hereto are being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section.

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

On May 12, 2021, the Company held its 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) solely by means of remote communication, in a virtual format.  Holders of a total of 15,826,047 shares of Common Stock were present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting, representing approximately 71.70% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

The final voting results on the matters considered at the Annual Meeting are provided below.

Proposal 1:  The individuals listed below were elected as directors to hold office for a one-year term expiring at the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

* Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted in determining the number of votes with respect to Proposal 1 and, therefore, did not affect the outcome of the voting on Proposal 1.

Proposal 2:  Schneider Downs & Co., Inc. was ratified as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.

**Abstentions are counted towards the vote total for Proposal 2 and have the same effect as “Against” votes. Because broker non-votes are not deemed to be votes entitled to be cast, they did not affect the outcome of the voting on Proposal 2.

Proposal 3:  The amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to specifically provide for stockholder removal of directors either with or without cause, was not approved, as it did not receive the vote of at least 75% of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock.

***Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted towards the vote total for Proposal 3 and have the same effect as “Against” votes.

Proposal 4:  The compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers in 2020 was approved on a non-binding advisory basis.

****Abstentions are counted towards the vote total for Proposal 4 and have the same effect as “Against” votes. Because broker non-votes are not deemed to be votes entitled to be cast, they did not affect the outcome of the voting on Proposal 4.
