EXPLANATORY NOTE
PrivateBancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 24, 2013 for the sole purpose of disclosing the Company’s decision as to the frequency with which it will include advisory votes on executive compensation in future annual meeting proxy materials.
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
As previously reported, at the Company’s 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 23, 2013, a majority of the shares voted were cast in favor of holding future advisory votes on executive compensation on an annual basis. After consideration of the stockholder vote, and in line with its recommendation disclosed in the Company’s 2013 Proxy Statement filed on April 12, 2013, the Board of Directors has determined that it intends to include an advisory vote on executive compensation at each Annual Meeting until such time as the Board determines to again seek stockholders’ input on the frequency of such votes. The Company will be required to hold another stockholder advisory vote on the frequency of votes on executive compensation no later than its 2019 Annual Meeting.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
