Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
The Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) was initially called to order on November 6, 2018 and was adjourned in order to permit additional time to solicit stockholder votes with respect to Proposal 2. The Annual Meeting was reconvened on December 18, 2018.
At the Annual Meeting, the Company submitted two proposals to the vote of Stockholders, which are described in detail in the Company’s proxy statement dated September 20, 2018. The Company’s stockholders previously approved Proposal 1 on November 6, 2018. As of September 14, 2018, the record date for the Annual Meeting, 13,650,124 shares of common stock were eligible to be voted. Of the shares eligible to be voted, 10,725,976 shares were voted in person or by proxy in connection with Proposal 2. At the reconvened Annual Meeting held on December 18, 2018, Proposal 2 was approved as follows:
Proposal 2: Approval of Proposal to Authorize the Company to Issue Shares Below NAV
The Company’s stockholders approved a proposal to authorize the Company, with Board approval, to sell or otherwise issue up to 25% of the Company’s outstanding common stock at an offering price that is below the Company’s then current NAV per share. The voting results were as follows:
| Votes For | Votes Against | Abstentions | ||||
| All Stockholders | 7,168,869 | 3,229,854 | 327,252 | |||
| All Stockholders excluding Affiliates* | 6,915,444 | 3,229,854 | 327,252 | |||
* Adjusted for 253,425 affiliated shares. This motion received the affirmative vote of (i) the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at this meeting; and (ii) the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at this meeting that are not held by affiliated persons of the Company. For purposes of this proposal, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, defines “a majority of the outstanding shares” as: (i) 67% or more of the voting securities present at this meeting if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Company are present or represented by proxy; or (ii) 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Company, whichever is less.
