Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
(a) 1st Century Bancshares, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("
1st Century
"), held a special meeting (the "
Special Meeting
") of 1st Century stockholders on June 20, 2016. At the Special Meeting, 1st Century stockholders adopted the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 10, 2016 (the "
Merger Agreement
"), by and among Midland Financial Co., an Oklahoma corporation, MC 2016 Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Midland Financial Co., and 1st Century. Sufficient votes were received to approve the proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting, if necessary, desirable or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if, at the time of the Special Meeting, there are an insufficient number of votes in favor of adopting the Merger Agreement, but an adjournment was not necessary in light of the adoption of the Merger Agreement. In addition, the non-binding advisory proposal to approve certain compensation arrangements for 1st Century's named executive officers in connection with the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement was also approved by 1st Century stockholders.
(b) The items voted upon at the Special Meeting and the final voting results for each proposal were as follows:
1. To adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 10, 2016, by and among Midland Financial Co., MC 2016 Corp. and 1st Century, as such agreement may be amended from time to time
