This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Energy XXI Gulf Coast, Inc. (the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 10, 2017 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The Original Form 8-K reported the final voting results of the Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 10, 2017 (the “Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company’s decision as to the frequency of future shareholder advisory votes regarding the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. Except as set forth herein, no other modifications have been made to the Original Form 8-K.
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
As previously disclosed in the Original Form 8-K, in a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers (say on pay) held at the Annual Meeting, 26,568,222 shares voted for one year, 333 shares voted for two years, 9,820 shares voted for three years, 469,562 shares abstained and there were 2,078,238 broker non-votes. In accordance with these results and its previous recommendation (as set forth in the definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting), the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that the Company will hold future say on pay votes every year until the next advisory vote on the frequency of say on pay votes.
