EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Form 8-K/A is being filed as an amendment (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Dune Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 10, 2013 (“Original Filing”). The sole purpose of this Amendment No. 1 is to disclose the Company’s decision as to how frequently it will conduct future stockholder advisory votes regarding compensation awarded to its named executive officers. No other changes have been made to the Original Filing.
| Item 5.07(d) | Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. |
At the Company’s 2013 annual meeting of stockholders held on June 5, 2013, the Company’s stockholders voted on, among other matters, a proposal on the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes regarding compensation awarded to named executive officers. As previously reported by the Company, the proposal to hold annual votes received the highest number of votes cast, as well as a majority of the votes cast on the proposal. Based on these results, and consistent with the Company’s recommendation, the Company’s Board of Directors has determined that the Company will conduct future stockholder advisory votes regarding compensation awarded to its named executive officers annually. The next required stockholder advisory vote on the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes regarding compensation awarded to named executive officers will be conducted at the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders.
