On February 16, 2011, Unified Grocers, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original 8-K”), to, among other things, report the results of the voting at the annual meeting of shareholders held February 16, 2011 on a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation. The Company’s Board of Directors has since evaluated the results of that non-binding advisory vote and made a determination as to whether the Company will submit future non-binding votes on executive compensation to the shareholders for consideration every one, two, or three years. This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed to update the disclosure under “Item 5.07, Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders” of the Original 8-K to provide information regarding the Board of Director’s determination. No other changes are being made to the Original 8-K.

 

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

As reported in the Company’s Original 8-K, at the annual meeting of shareholders held February 16, 2011, a non-binding advisory vote was held regarding the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes to approve the compensation of named executive officers. A majority of the shares voted for the Company to hold non-binding advisory votes every three years. In light of this result and after further discussion by the Board of Directors, the Board determined that the Company would hold non-binding advisory votes to approve the compensation of named executive officers every three years until the next required non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation.
