Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
Item 5.07(d).
As previously reported, consistent with the Board of Directors’ recommendation at X-Rite, Incorporated’s (the “Company”) 2011 Annual Meeting held on May 18, 2011, shareholders approved on an advisory, non-binding, basis the two(2) -year option with respect to the frequency of future shareholder advisory approval of executive compensation (“Say-on-Pay”).
The Board of Directors has determined that the Company will be following the shareholder advisory vote on the frequency of Say-on-Pay votes and will provide the shareholders with a Say-on-Pay vote on a biennial (every two (2) years) basis until the next required advisory vote on the frequency of future Say-on-Pay votes. Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the Company is required to provide shareholders at least once every six calendar years the opportunity to cast an advisory vote on the frequency of Say-on-Pay votes.
The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A to its Current Report on Form 8-K, which was originally filed on May 20, 2011, for the sole purpose of disclosing the Board of Directors’ decision regarding the frequency of Say-on-Pay votes as described above.
