Item 5.07 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders OnJanuary 31, 2022 , the sole holder of the Company's Class B Voting Common Stock (the "Voting Stockholder") ratified certain "defective corporate acts" (as such term is defined in Section 204(h) of the General Corporation Law of theState of Delaware (the "DGCL")) relating to the Company's 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The ratification was approved by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") prior to submission to the Voting Stockholder. The Plan was originally approved by the Board and the Voting Stockholder and became effectiveMay 1, 2010 . As originally approved, Section 1.2 of the Plan provided that "no Award shall be granted under the plan after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date." SinceMay 1, 2020 , the Company has continued to grant awards under the Plan. The failure to amend the Plan to extend the end-date for making awards under the Plan was inadvertent and an unintentional oversight by Company personnel. All of the awards granted sinceMay 1, 2020 have been part of the Company's customary and ongoing long-term incentive compensation program for directors, executive officers and other key employees; have been reviewed and approved by the Company's Executive Chairman (who is also the sole beneficial owner of the Voting Stockholder) and by the People andCompensation Committee of the Board; have been disclosed and discussed in the "Executive Compensation" section of the Company's Annual Reports on Form 10-K; have been fully reflected in the Company's annual and quarterly financial statements; and for directors and executive officers, have been reported on periodic Section 16 filings. A complete list of those awards is attached as a schedule to the Board resolutions approving the ratification, which are included in Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this "Report"). The ratification described above was implemented pursuant to Section 204 of the DGCL. This Report, including Exhibit 99.1 (which is incorporated herein by reference), shall constitute the notice to stockholders required by Sections 204 and 228(e) of the DGCL.
