Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
 
FormFactor, Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) on May 26, 2017 at its corporate headquarters at 7005 Southfront Road, Livermore, California 94551. At the meeting, the Company’s stockholders voted on the following five (5) proposals and cast their votes as follows:
 
Proposal 1: Election of three Class II directors to the Company’s Board of Directors, each to serve until his successor has been elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. The director nominees were:

On an advisory basis, the Company’s stockholders indicated their preference for the advisory vote on executive compensation to be held annually. In response to the voting results and other factors, the Company’s Board of Directors determined that the Company will hold an advisory vote on the named executive officer compensation every year. The Company will continue to hold advisory votes on named executive officer compensation every year until the next required advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation.
