Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On June 15, 2012, Vanguard Natural Resources, LLC (the “Company”) reconvened its 2012 Annual Meeting of Unitholders (the “Annual Meeting”), which was adjourned on May 18, 2012 to permit additional time to solicit unitholder votes to be cast for the third proposal found in the Company’s proxy statement filed on March 5, 2012 (the “Proxy”). At the Annual Meeting, a substantial majority of the votes cast were in favor of the third proposal described in the Proxy. However, because a majority of the Company's units outstanding were not cast at the Annual Meeting, the third proposal was not approved for failure to satisfy New York Stock Exchange voting requirements.
The final results of the third proposal described in the Proxy are as follows:
Proposal No. 3 —First Amendment to the Vanguard Natural Resources, LLC Long-Term Incentive Plan: Unitholders did not approve the First Amendment to the Vanguard Natural Resources, LLC Long-Term Incentive Plan.
