Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On October 16, 2020, at Lifeway’s
annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), we submitted two matters to a vote of securities holders. Proxies
for the Annual Meeting were solicited pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The persons
named as proxies on the proxy card voted in the manner indicated on the submitted proxy card and there was no solicitation of proxies
in opposition to management’s nominees as listed in the proxy statement. All of management’s nominees were elected
to the Board. Details of the voting are provided below:
Proposal 1:
To elect eight (8)
members of the Company's Board of Directors to one-year terms expiring at the next Annual Meeting of stockholders (or until successors
are elected or directors resign or are removed).
