PAYLOCITY HOLDING CORPORATION (NASDAQ:PCTY) Files An 8-K Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security HoldersItem 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, in an advisory vote on the frequency of holding advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers held at the Annual Meeting, 17,722,437 shares voted for one year, 388,123 shares voted for two years, 30,486,233 shares voted for three years, 292,286 shares abstained and there were 960,414 broker non-votes. Although a majority of the votes of the Company’s stockholders were cast at the Annual Meeting in favor of holding a triennial, non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation, approximately 36% of the votes cast on the non-binding advisory “say on pay frequency” proposal were voted in favor of holding the non-binding advisory “say on pay” vote every one year.
The board of directors of the Company reviewed and considered the results of the advisory vote as well as general market practices and determined that the Company will conduct future stockholder non-binding advisory votes regarding the compensation to be paid by the Company to its named executive officers every one year, so that the next such vote will be held at its fiscal year 2018 annual meeting of stockholders. This policy will remain in effect until the occurrence of the next advisory vote on the frequency of the say-on-pay vote or until the board of directors determines that a different frequency for such advisory vote is in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders.
