The Inspector of Elections will execute a certificate as to the results of the voting, and that certificate will be filed with the minutes of this meeting. As we have sufficient votes to approve the adoption of the merger agreement, the proposal of the proxy to adjourn this meeting to a later date to solicit additional proxies is rendered moot, and will not be presented for a vote. The final tabulation of these votes will appear in the Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We currently expect the merger to be consummated on or around May 18, 2020, after buyer's remarketing period ends. — Darren Milliken, General Counsel – Forescout Technologies",
