The time allotted for Q&A on the proposals has expired, and we have received no questions regarding these proposals.

We'll pause briefly to allow for any additional votes. All votes being submitted. It is 8:07 A.M. Pacific Time, and the polls are now closed. Based on information we have received from our Inspector of Elections, I will now announce the preliminary voting results for the meeting, which remain subject to the Inspector of Elections' final report.
