KLA-Tencor Corporation (the "Company") held its fiscal year 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2013 Annual Meeting") on November 6, 2013. Of the 166,720,455 shares of the Company's common stock outstanding as of September 17, 2013 (the record date), 146,162,782 shares, or 87.67%, were present or represented by proxy at the 2013 Annual Meeting. Five proposals were considered at the 2013 Annual Meeting.
Proposal One. Last year, the Company's stockholders approved management's proposal to declassify the Company's Board of Directors, beginning with the 2013 Annual Meeting. Accordingly, at the 2013 Annual Meeting, the stockholders elected the four candidates nominated by the Company's Board of Directors (whose three-year terms expired at the 2013 Annual Meeting) to serve as directors for one-year terms, each until his or her successor is duly elected.

Kennedy, who are designated as Class I Directors) and in 2015 (Robert T. Bond, Kiran M. Patel and David C. Wang, who are designated as Class III Directors) were not subject to reelection at the 2013 Annual Meeting, and their respective terms of office as members of the Board of Directors continued after the meeting.
