Explanatory Note
This current report on Form 8-K/A (this "Amendment") amends the current report on Form 8-K filed by Monarch Casino & Resort, Inc. (the "Company") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 19, 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 June 14, 2017 (the "2017 Annual Meeting"). The purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company's decision regarding the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of its named executive officers ("say-on-pay votes"). No other changes are being made to the Original Form 8-K.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, in a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future say-on-pay votes held at the 2017 Annual Meeting, 7,415,663 shares voted for one year, 12,273 shares voted for two years, 6,445,040 shares voted for three years, and 2,152,178 shares abstained. The Company's board of directors considered the outcome of this advisory vote and 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 occurs. The next advisory vote on the frequency of say-on-pay votes is required to occur no later than the Company's 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.
