Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On December 3, 2014, Multimedia Games Holding Company (the Company) held a special meeting of its shareholders (the Special Meeting) to consider certain proposals related to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 8, 2014 (the Merger Agreement), by and among the Company, Global Cash Access Holdings, Inc. (GCA) and Movie Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of GCA (Merger Sub), which provides, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, that Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of GCA (the Merger).
As of October 21, 2014, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 29,732,211 shares of the Companys common stock outstanding, each of which was entitled to one vote for each proposal at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, a total of 26,140,253 shares of the Companys common stock, representing approximately 87.9% of outstanding shares entitled to vote, were present in person or by proxy, constituting a quorum to conduct business.
At the Special Meeting, the following proposals were considered:
(1) The approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger;
(2) The approval, on a non-binding, advisory basis, of the Merger-related compensation of the Companys named executive officers; and
(3) The approval of the adjournment of the Special Meeting to another date and place if necessary or appropriate to solicit additional votes if there were insufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger.
All of the proposals were approved by the requisite vote of the Companys shareholders. The final voting results for each proposal are described below. For more information on each of these proposals, see the Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A for the Special Meeting, filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 22, 2014.
