On June 16, 2016, The LGL Group, Inc. (the "Company") held its 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting").
The following matters were submitted to a vote of the Company's stockholders at the Annual Meeting: (i) the election of eight directors to serve until the Company's 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified; (ii) the adoption and approval of the Amended and Restated 2011 Incentive Plan; (iii) the ratification of the appointment of RSM US LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016; and (iv) a non-binding advisory resolution to approve the compensation of the Company's named executive officers. The four proposals are described in detail in the Company's definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 29, 2016 (the "Definitive Proxy Statement").
Each of the matters submitted to a vote of the Company's stockholders at the Annual Meeting was approved by the requisite vote of the Company's stockholders. Set forth below is the number of votes cast for, against or withheld, as well as the number of abstentions and broker non-votes as to each such matter, including a separate tabulation with respect to each nominee for director, as applicable.

As noted in the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement, Patrick J. Guarino, who had served as a director since 2006, did not stand for re-election at the Annual Meeting. Mr. Guarino's decision not to stand for re-election was due to personal reasons and not a result of any disagreement with the Company or its board of directors on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices.
The Company's stockholders approved the Company's Amended and Restated 2011 Incentive Plan (the "Amended 2011 Plan") to, among other things, (i) increase the number of shares of the Company's common stock available for issuance under the Amended 2011 Plan by an additional 250,000 shares, to a total of 750,000 shares, and (ii) increase the annual limitation on the amount of awards that may be made to any individual by 75,000 shares of common stock, to a total of 125,000 shares. A summary of the material terms of the Amended 2011 Plan is set forth in the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement. That summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Amended 2011 Plan, which is included as Annex A to the Definitive Proxy Statement and is incorporated herein by reference.
