Item 5.07(d)    Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
In connection with the annual shareholders meeting of SilverBow Resources, Inc. (“SilverBow” or the “Company”) held May 16, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously recommended that the Company shareholders vote for an advisory vote on the executive compensation of SilverBow Resources’ Named Executive Officers to occur every year. At the 2017 annual shareholders meeting, Company shareholders followed this recommendation with 99.0% of the Company’s shareholders voting on this proposal voting for an advisory vote to occur every year.
As provided in Item 5.07(d) of Form 8-K, in light of both the support of the Board of Directors of the Company and the vast majority of Company shareholders, SilverBow Resources will hold an annual shareholder advisory vote on the compensation of its Named Executive Officers at its 2018 annual meeting of shareholders, and continuing thereafter until such time that the frequency vote is next presented to shareholders or until the Board of Directors determines otherwise.
