Section 5 Corporate Governance and Management
Item 5.07 | Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. |
PlainsCapital Corporation, a Texas corporation (the Company), held its Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the Annual Meeting) on May 11, 2011. On the March 18, 2011 record date (the Record Date), the Company had two classes of voting securities entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and Original Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, each of which entitles the holder to one vote per share. The Company did not have any shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Record Date, and, therefore, there were no shares of Common Stock represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. A total of 26,233,693 shares of Original Common Stock were represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting, representing 77.06% of the 34,041,088 shares of Original Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Record Date. The number of votes cast for, against, or withheld, as well as abstentions and broker non-votes, as applicable, with respect to each matter is set forth below.
