Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On August 17, 2026, the Company held the Special Meeting to, among other things, consider and vote upon certain proposals related to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of May 16, 2026, by and among the Company, MMS USA Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Parent"), Covey Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned direct subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), and solely for the purposes of Section 10.14 of the Merger Agreement, Publicis Groupe, S.A., a French société anonyme, pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger"). As of the close of business on June 18, 2026, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were a total of 60,786,315 shares of common stock, par value $0.10 per share, of the Company ("Common Stock") issued and outstanding, each of which was entitled to one vote for each proposal at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, a total of 56,066,697 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 92.23% of the Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the record date, were represented in person or by proxy, which constituted a quorum for the Special Meeting. The Company's stockholders voted on the following proposals, and the final voting results for each of the proposals are described below.

1.            Merger Agreement Proposal. The stockholders adopted the Merger Agreement by the following votes:

Votes For Votes Against Votes Abstained Broker Non-Votes
51,578,202 60,073 53,553 4,374,869

2.            Adjournment Proposal. In connection with the Special Meeting, the Company also solicited proxies with respect to a proposal to adjourn the Special Meeting, and any adjourned session of the Special Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if there were insufficient votes to adopt the Merger Agreement (the "Adjournment Proposal"). Because there were sufficient votes to approve the Merger Agreement, the Adjournment Proposal was unnecessary and such proposal was not submitted to the stockholders for approval at the Special Meeting.
