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

We held our Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 24, 2011. At the meeting, the following proposals were acted upon:

 Mr. Michael B. Targoff
    13,866,414       2,688,632       3,982,136  

Directors whose terms of office continued after the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and who were not subject to election at the 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders are Dr. Mark H. Rachesky, Hal Goldstein and Sai Devabhaktuni, whose terms expire in 2012, and Arthur L. Simon and John P. Stenbit whose terms expire in 2013.

(2) Ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2011. The votes were as follows:

                     
For    
    19,903,202

    13,769                           
Abstain
    620,211                                                     

(3) Approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as described in the Company’s Proxy Statement. The votes were as follows:

                     
For    
    14,012,497

    122,381

    2,420,168                                              

(4) Selection, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the frequency of future non-binding, advisory votes on compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers. The votes were as follows:

                     
One Year   
    14,688,036

The Board of Directors of the Company has determined, taking into account, among other things, the above-referenced shareholder vote, to include, on a non-binding, advisory basis, a shareholder vote on the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers in its proxy materials every year until the next required vote on the frequency of shareholder votes on the compensation of its named executive officers.
