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

On June 6, 2012, the Registrant’s annual meeting of stockholders was held at the Registrant’s Burr Ridge, Illinois offices. A total of 14,888,533 of the Registrant’s shares of common stock were present or represented by proxy at the annual meeting. This represented approximately 96.63% of the Registrant’s shares outstanding on the April 17, 2012 record date. Three proposals were voted upon at the annual meeting and each was approved. Each of Gary Y. Kusumi, Thomas C. Davis, Nimrod T. Frazer, Mory Katz, David I. Schamis, Robert T. Williams and Paul J. Zucconi was elected as a director, each to serve until the Registrant’s next annual meeting of stockholders and until his successor is duly elected and qualified. In addition: (i) the appointment of KPMG LLP as the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2012 by the Registrant’s Audit Committee was ratified by the Registrant’s stockholders, and (ii) a “say-on-pay” resolution approving the compensation of the Registrant’s named executive officers was approved on a non-binding, advisory basis by the Registrant’s stockholders.

The following table sets forth the number of votes cast for, against or withheld, as well as the number of abstentions and broker non-votes for each of the proposals voted upon at the Registrant’s annual meeting of stockholders:
