share on the company’s common stock payable June 27, 2018, to
stockholders of record at the close of business on June 6, 2018.

independent public accountants for 2018 at its annual meeting of
stockholders held in Houston, Texas, on May 16, 2018. The advisory
resolution on executive compensation was not approved by the
stockholders.

Albrecht, Alan M. Bennett, James R. Boyd, Milton Carroll, Nance K.
Dicciani, Murry S. Gerber, José C. Grubisich, David J. Lesar, Robert A.
Malone, Jeffrey A. Miller, and Debra L. Reed.
We are disappointed that our advisory resolution on executive
compensation did not pass this year, but look forward to continuing our
active engagement with our stockholders concerning our compensation
program and other matters. Our Board of Directors has structured our
program to align executive compensation with the creation of shareholder
returns, which have exceeded our peers over the last one, three and five
year periods and to attract, motivate, and retain executives which is
especially important during a CEO transition period. This is the first
time our annual executive compensation proposal has not passed.
