Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On June 24, 2016, Carter Validus Mission Critical REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. At the meeting, the Company’s stockholders voted to elect five directors to the board of directors of the Company to hold office until the 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualify. Each of the five nominees for director was elected by our stockholders by the requisite vote necessary for approval, and the final voting results with respect to the proposal are set forth below:
Name of Director | For | Withheld | Abstentions | Broker Non-Votes | ||||||||
John E. Carter | 89,332,172.382 | 1,898,008.104 | — | 14,812,615.170 | ||||||||
Mario Garcia, Jr. | 88,546,144.303 | 2,684,036.183 | — | 14,812,615.170 | ||||||||
Randall Greene | 89,324,114.193 | 1,906,066.293 | — | 14,812,615.170 | ||||||||

Broker non-votes are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker holding shares of the Company's common stock for a beneficial owner is present at the meeting, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote, but does not vote on a particular proposal because the broker does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item and has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner. A broker non-vote is not an indication of how the beneficial owner would have voted; it simply means that the beneficial owner did not instruct the broker as to how to vote his or her shares.
