Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On May 19, 2011, Halliburton held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Stockholders were asked to consider and act upon, among other matters, an advisory vote on the frequency of an advisory vote on executive compensation. As previously reported, a majority of the votes cast on the frequency proposal were cast in favor of holding an advisory vote on executive compensation every year.
Our Board of Directors decided at a meeting held on July 21, 2011 that the company will include an advisory vote on executive compensation every year in its future proxy materials until the next stockholder vote on the frequency of these votes.
The information reported under Item 5.07 of the May 25, 2011 Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference.
