At the Annual General Meeting, our shareholders took the following actions on the proposals:
(1) Our shareholders reappointed Zachary S. Sternberg to our Board of Directors to serve for a term of three years ending at the conclusion of our annual general meeting of shareholders in 2024.
(2) Our shareholders approved our non-binding "say on pay" proposal regarding the compensation of our named executive officers, as described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, executive compensation tables, and accompanying narrative disclosures in our definitive proxy statement dated October 19, 2021.
(3) Our shareholders did not approve our proposal to set the minimum and maximum prices at which we may reissue our treasury shares, which was proposed as a special resolution under Irish law requiring at least 75% of the votes to be cast in favor for the resolution to pass. As only 68% of the votes were cast in favor of the resolution (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes), the resolution did not pass. Accordingly, we intend to continue to reissue our treasury shares to satisfy our obligations under our equity compensation awards and for other corporate purposes that may arise until May 25, 2022, the date on which our previous shareholder-approved price range expires, and after that date, we will issue new ordinary shares for these purposes.
(4) Our shareholders reappointed PricewaterhouseCoopers Ireland as our statutory auditor under Irish law to hold office until the conclusion of our annual general meeting of shareholders in 2022.
(5) Our shareholders authorized our Board of Directors or Audit Committee to determine the remuneration of PricewaterhouseCoopers Ireland in its capacity as our statory auditor under Irish law.
