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

The 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Greatbatch, Inc. was held on May 18, 2012. At the 2012 Annual Meeting, stockholders approved each of management’s proposals which consisted of (i) the election of eight (8) directors, all of whom were then serving as directors of Greatbatch, Inc., for a term of one (1) year and until their successors are elected and qualified; (ii) the re-approval of the Greatbatch, Inc. Executive Short Term Incentive Compensation Plan; (iii) the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm of Greatbatch, Inc. for fiscal year 2012; and (iv) the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of Greatbatch, Inc.’s named executive officers.

The voting results for each proposal, including the votes for and against or withheld, and any abstentions or broker non-votes, are described below. Abstentions and broker non-votes (if applicable) were counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum was present, but were not treated as votes cast. Therefore, abstentions and broker non-votes (if applicable) did not have the effect of a vote for or against such proposal and were not counted in determining the number of votes required for approval.
