EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the Amendment) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 27, 2017 filed by BroadSoft, Inc. (the Company) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on May 3, 2017 (the Original Form 8-K). The Original Form 8-K reported the final voting results of the Companys 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on April 27, 2017 (the 2017 Annual Meeting). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Companys decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future stockholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Companys named executive officers (say on pay). No other changes have been made to the Original Form 8-K.
Item 5.07 | Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. |
As reported in the Original Form 8-K, at the 2017 Annual Meeting, a majority of the Companys stockholders that voted on the matter indicated a preference to hold, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the Companys future say on pay advisory vote on an annual basis. In accordance with the original recommendation of the Companys Board of Directors (the Board), as set forth in the Companys Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on March 17, 2017, and consistent with the stockholder voting results, on July 27, 2017, the Board determined that the say on pay vote will be conducted annually, until the next stockholder vote on say on pay frequency, which vote will occur no later than the Companys 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.
