Explanatory Note:
This Form 8-K/A is being filed as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Registrant on June 3, 2011 in order to update information provided under Item 5.07 regarding the frequency of future stockholder non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of the Registrant’s named executive officers. Except as set forth herein, no other changes have been made to the Registrant’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 3, 2011.
Section 5—Corporate Governance and Management
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
As previously disclosed, at the Registrant’s annual meeting of stockholders held on May 27, 2011, a frequency of every year received a majority of the votes cast at such meeting with respect to the non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on the compensation of the Registrant’s named executive officers. In light of this result and other factors considered by the Board of Directors of the Registrant, the Board of Directors of the Registrant decided that the Registrant will hold a non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of its named executive officers each year at its annual meeting of stockholders until the next required non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of the same, which is no later than the Registrant’s annual meeting of stockholders in 2017.
