EXPLANATORY NOTE
Spartech Corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 17, 2011, which was originally filed on March 21, 2011 (the “Original 8-K”), to update disclosures made under Item 5.07 regarding the frequency of future shareholder advisory (non-binding) votes on the compensation of the Company's named executive officers (“Say-on-Pay”).
Except for the foregoing, this Amendment No. 1 does not amend the Original 8-K in any way and does not modify or update any other disclosures contained in the Original 8-K. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Original 8-K.
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
At the Company's 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on March 17, 2011, the shareholders approved on a non-binding advisory basis, the holding of Say-on-Pay votes on an annual basis. In light of this result and other factors considered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, the Compensation Committee has determined that the Company will hold annual Say-on-Pay votes until the next required advisory vote on the frequency of Say-on-Pay votes occurs. The next non-binding advisory vote regarding such frequency will be held no later than the Company's 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, although an earlier vote regarding the frequency may be held at the Compensation Committee's discretion.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
