Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At the 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Capital Senior Living Corporation (the “Company”) held on May 25, 2011, Proposals 1, 2, 3 and 4 were approved by the Company’s stockholders and no other business was properly brought before the Annual Meeting. The proposals are described in detail in the proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 22, 2011. At the Annual Meeting, the holders of 24,505,811 shares of the Company’s common stock, which represents approximately 89% of the shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding and entitled to vote as of the record date for the Annual Meeting of March 28, 2011, were represented in person or by proxy. The voting results of the Annual Meeting are set forth below.

Proposal 1 – Election of Directors – The Company’s stockholders elected Lawrence A. Cohen, Craig F. Hartberg and E. Rodney Hornbake to each serve as a director of the Company for three-year terms expiring in 2014. The voting results for each of these individuals were as follows:

                         
            Votes

    21,326,378       404,641       2,774,792  
Craig F. Hartberg
    19,999,705       1,731,314       2,774,792  
E. Rodney Hornbake
    21,328,778       402,241       2,774,792  

Proposal 2 – Ratification of the Appointment of the Company’s Independent Auditors – The Company’s stockholders ratified the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s independent auditors. The voting results were 24,467,638 shares “FOR,” 25,036 shares “AGAINST,” and 13,136 abstentions.

Proposal 3 – Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation – The Company’s stockholders approved, on an advisory (nonbinding) basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in the Proxy Statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. The voting results were 21,488,978 shares “FOR,” 178,970 shares “AGAINST,” 63,071 abstentions, and 2,774,792 broker non-votes.

Proposal 4 – Advisory Vote on the Frequency of an Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation – The Company’s stockholders voted, on an advisory (nonbinding) basis, for the option of every one year as the preferred frequency for advisory votes on the Company’s executive compensation. The voting results were as follows:

         
Frequency   Votes “FOR”
Every One Year
    20,066,317  
Every Two Years
    41,861  
Every Three Years
    1,560,257  

There were 62,584 abstentions and 2,774,792 broker non-votes with respect to Proposal 4.

Consistent with a majority of the votes cast with respect to Proposal 4, the Company’s Board of Directors has determined that the Company will hold a stockholder advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers once every year until the next required vote on the frequency of stockholder votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as required pursuant to Section 14(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
