EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This current report on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends the current report on Form 8-K dated May 22, 2017 filed by Cytori Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 22, 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 22, 2017 (the “2017 Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company’s decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future stockholder advisory votes to approve the Company’s executive compensation (“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

 

(d)

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, 4,375,325 shares voted for one every year, 111,718 shares voted for every two years, 505,577 shares voted for every three years, 239,428 shares abstained and there were 10,371,088 broker non-votes. The Company has considered the outcome of this advisory vote and has determined, as was recommended with respect to this proposal by the Company’s board of directors in the proxy statement for the 2017 Annual Meeting, that the Company will hold future say on pay votes on an annual basis until the occurrence of the next advisory vote on the frequency of say on pay votes. The next advisory vote regarding the frequency of say on pay votes is required to occur no later than the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
