This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed to update the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by The Warnaco Group, Inc. (the “Company”) on May 16, 2011 (the “Original Report”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The purpose of this amendment is to disclose, as required by SEC regulations, the Company’s decision regarding the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of its named executive officers. No changes have been made to the Original Report.
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
As reported in the Original Report, at the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 11, 2011, stockholders voted on an advisory basis, consistent with the Board of Directors recommendation in the Company’s 2011 proxy statement, in favor of holding future advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year. In light of these results, the Company’s Board of Directors has decided that future advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers will be held every year until the next advisory vote on the frequency of such votes, which in accordance with applicable law, will occur no later than the Company’s Annual Meeting in 2017.
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.
