Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
The Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Security National Financial Corporation (the “Company”) was held on June 26, 2020, in Salt Lake City, Utah. As of the record date, there were issued and outstanding (including treasury stock) 15,878,480 shares of Class A common stock and 2,489,215 shares of Class C common stock, such Class C shares representing a weighted voting total of 24,892,150 Class C common shares, for a combined voting total of 40,770,630 Class A and Class C common shares. At the Annual Meeting there was present or represented by proxy a total of 11,606,236 Class A common shares (or approximately 73% of the outstanding Class A shares) and 2,458,849 Class C common shares (or approximately 99% of the outstanding Class C shares), such Class C shares representing a weighted voting total of 24,892,150 Class C common shares for a combined voting total of 36,498,386 Class A and Class C common shares (approximately 90% of the outstanding Class A and Class C shares). Accordingly, under Article IX of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act, the combined voting total of Class A and Class C common shares was a majority of the outstanding voting total of shares of Class A and Class C common stock and constituted a quorum for the Annual Meeting.
At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders (i) approved the election of Scott M. Quist, H. Craig Moody, S. Andrew Quist, John L. Cook, Gilbert A. Fuller, Robert G. Hunter, M.D., Jason G. Overbaugh, and Norman G. Wilbur, as directors of the Company; (ii) approved, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers; and (iii) ratified the Appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
The results of the voting at the Annual Meeting on the matters submitted to the stockholders are set forth below. It should be noted that at the Company’s Annual Meeting held on July 2, 2014, the stockholders approved a resolution providing for a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the Company’s Class C common stock and for weighted voting of the Class C common stock. As a result, each share of Class C common stock has weighted voting of ten votes per share and may be converted into one share of Class A common stock. The voting results at the Annual Meeting set forth below reflect the weighted voting for the Class C common shares.
