Explanatory Note
The Goldfield Corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Current Report on Form 8-K, dated May 30, 2013, (filed with the SEC on June 3, 2013) solely for the purpose of disclosing under Item 5.07 of Form 8-K the Company's decision following its annual meeting of stockholders, as to the frequency with which it expects to include a stockholder vote on the compensation of executives in future annual meeting proxy materials. This Amendment No. 1 does not otherwise revise the May 30, 2013 Form 8-K in any way.
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
At the Company's annual meeting of stockholders held on May 30, 2013, the Company's stockholders voted on an advisory proposal concerning the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation. As reported in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 30, 2013, at the meeting, consistent with the Company's Board of Directors' recommendation, stockholders cast the highest number of votes for a triennial (every three years) frequency instead of a biennial (every two years) or annual frequency. In light of these results, the Company's Board of Directors has determined that it will hold a triennial advisory vote on executive compensation. The Company will re-evaluate this determination in connection with its next stockholder advisory vote regarding the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation. The Company is required to hold votes on frequency every six calendar years.
