Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On November 10, 2011, Ladenburg Thalmann Financial Services Inc. (the "Company") filed a Current Report on Form 8–K (the "Original Report") to report the voting results of the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on November 10, 2011 (the "Annual Meeting") including, among other matters, the results of the advisory (non–binding) votes of its shareholders regarding the frequency of conducting an advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (the "Say–on–Pay Vote"). This Form 8–K/A is being filed as an amendment to the Original Report solely to disclose the decision of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") as to how frequently the Company will conduct an advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. Except for the foregoing, this Form 8-K/A does not modify or update any other disclosure contained in the Original Report and this Form 8-K/A should be read in conjunction with the Original Report.

In accordance with its prior recommendation that the Say-on-Pay Vote occur every year and the shareholder voting results at the Annual Meeting, in which every year received a plurality of the votes cast, the Board has determined that future advisory (non-binding) Say-on-Pay Votes will occur every year until the next advisory vote regarding frequency.
