Morning, and welcome everyone to the 2021 Annual Shareholders Meeting of Motorola Solutions. I am Kristin Kruska, Corporate Vice President and Secretary of Motorola Solutions, and it is my pleasure to welcome you to our virtual shareholder meeting. For the second year in a row, we are holding our annual meeting entirely virtually due to the ongoing public health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and to support the health and wellness of our shareholders, directors, and team members. We are thankful we are able to connect with you, our shareholders, through this virtual meeting. We will conduct the business portion of our meeting first and answer any appropriate questions regarding matters on the agenda or the business of Motorola Solutions at the end of the meeting during our question- and- answer session.
During the meeting and our 15-minute question- and- answer session at the end of the call today, we may make forward-looking statements based on current expectations and factors that are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Please refer to the risk factors section of our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a detailed discussion of principles, risks, and uncertainties that could cause such differences. We do not undertake any duty to update any forward-looking statement. On the line with me today is Greg Brown, our Chairman and CEO, as well as our Board of Directors and representatives of PwC, the company's external auditors, who are available to answer questions at the end of the meeting. Motorola Solutions has appointed Ms. Rhoda Anderson of Broadridge Financial Solutions to act as the Inspector of Elections.
Now for the formal business of the meeting, which I now call to order. The procedures for the meeting can be found on the web portal or on our investor relations website. As a reminder, the proposals and the proxy statement are the only items of business that can be transacted at this meeting. Please note the meeting is being recorded. However, no one attending the virtual meeting is permitted to use any recording device or to copy any of the materials presented at the annual meeting, including by taking screenshots. Broadridge Financial Solutions has confirmed that the notice of internet availability of proxy materials was mailed on or about April 1, 2021, to each shareholder of record at the close of business on March 19, 2021.
The Inspector of Elections has determined that a sufficient number of shares entitled to vote at this meeting are present, virtually in person or by proxy, to constitute a quorum, and we may now proceed with the business of the meeting. It is 9:32 A.M. Central Time on Tuesday, May 18, 2021. I now declare the polls open for all matters of business. If there are any shareholders who have already voted and wish to revoke or change their vote, or who have not yet voted and wish to vote, you may do so on the web portal at this time. You may vote until all items of business as set forth in the agenda have been introduced and discussed.
If you have already sent in your proxy or voted via telephone or the internet and do not want to change your vote, you do not need to take any further action. The first matter is the election of the seven director nominees named in the proxy statement for a one-year term or until their successors are duly elected and qualified: Gregory Q. Brown, Kenneth C. Bennett, Steven T. Yahiaoui, Clayton M. Jones, Judy C. Lewent, Gregory K. Mondre, Joseph M. Tucci. Is there a second?
I second the motion.
The next matter to be acted upon is the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, as the company's independent registered public accounting firm for 2021. Is there a second?
I second the motion.
The next matter to be acted upon is the non-binding advisory vote to approve the company's executive compensation. The resolution provided in the proxy statement to be acted upon states, "Resolved that the shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the compensation discussion and analysis, the compensation tables, and other related disclosures in this proxy statement." Is there a second?
I second the motion.
At this time, I ask all shareholders who desire to vote to please conclude their voting through the virtual meeting website. I now declare the polls closed at 9:35 A.M. Central Time on May 18, 2021. Based on the preliminary review of the votes, the Inspector of Elections has informed me that all director nominees have been elected, that the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2021 has been ratified, and that our executive compensation has been approved by our shareholders on an advisory basis. We will report the official results of the shareholder vote with respect to each proposal on a Form 8-K within four business days of this meeting. This concludes the formal business of our annual meeting. I now declare the meeting adjourned.
We will now open the meeting for shareholder comments and questions that were entered today on the web portal. Please note we will attempt to answer as many questions as our 15-minute session allows, but only germane questions will be addressed. Our first question is a question regarding the Verizon announcement of working in the crisis communications section. With respect to Verizon and our vision and strategy, it has been our strategy to be the leading global provider of mission-critical communications, command center software, and video security for public safety and commercial customers. We believe we are well-positioned for growth utilizing our LMR platform for software and services and video growth, and we strive to provide an integrated end-to-end solution to our customers that delivers a clear return on investment. Our underlying purpose has always been and will always be helping customers be their best in the moments that matter.
We have no further questions today. On behalf of Motorola Solutions, thank you for your support and attendance. This concludes our 2021 Annual Meeting.
