Item 5.07
|
Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
|
As previously reported, in the proxy statement for the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2011 Meeting"), the Board of Directors (the “Board”) recommended that stockholders vote, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, in favor of triennial future "say-on-pay" votes. Say-on-pay votes are periodic advisory (non-binding) stockholder votes to approve the compensation paid to the Company's named executive officers. At the 2011 Meeting, a majority of the shares cast on the matter voted in favor of an annual frequency for say-on-pay votes, and these results were timely reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 11, 2011 (the “Original Report”).
The Board carefully evaluated the voting results and various other factors. After consideration, the Board approved holding triennial say-on-pay votes and disclosed its determination in an amendment to the Original Report filed on August 22, 2011. The Board’s decision was based upon the fact that the Company does not provide any form of compensation to the Company’s executive officers. Instead, the compensation of the Company’s executive officers, all of whom are employed by the Company’s Manager, Invesco Advisers, Inc., is the exclusive responsibility of the Manager.
The Board has accepted Institutional Shareholder Services’ recent recommendation that say-on-pay votes occur annually consistent with stockholders’ preference. Therefore, the Board has determined that the Company will hold future advisory (non-binding) say-on-pay votes on an annual basis commencing with the Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2013.
On April 23, 2012, the Company is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K/A, further amending the Original Report, solely for the purpose of disclosing the Board's revised decision on the frequency of future say-on-pay votes.
