EXPLANATORY NOTE
Renasant Corporation (the “Company”) is filing this Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) to amend the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2017 (the “Original Filing”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the determination of the Board of Directors of the Company regarding how frequently the Company will conduct future shareholder non-binding advisory votes on the compensation paid to its named executive officers. Except for the foregoing, no other changes are being made to the Original Filing, nor are any of the other disclosures in the Original Filing updated or modified in any way. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing.
Item 5.07    Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
(d)    As previously reported in the Original Filing, at the Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April 25, 2017, the Company’s shareholders recommended by a majority of votes cast that the non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers occur on an annual basis. This vote was consistent with the recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Company. Based on this shareholder vote and other factors the Board of Directors considered in making its original recommendation, the Board of Directors determined at its meeting on July 18, 2017 that the Company will conduct future shareholder advisory votes regarding the compensation paid to its named executive officers on an annual basis.
