Explanatory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) is being filed as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by BIO-key International, Inc. (the “Company”) on June 27, 2018 (the “Original 8-K”). The Original 8-K was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to report the results of the matters submitted to a vote by the Company’s stockholders at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 22, 2018 (the “Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose, in accordance with Item 5.07(d) of Form 8-K, the Company’s decision as to how frequently the Company will conduct future shareholder advisory votes regarding named executive officer compensation. Except as set forth herein, no other modifications have been made to the Original 8-K.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
(d) At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders voted on, among other matters, an advisory proposal concerning the frequency of future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation. As reported in the Original 8-K, the Company’s shareholders approved, on an advisory basis, “three years” as the frequency for holding an advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. The recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Company as set forth in the Company’s proxy statement filed with the SEC on April 30, 2018 was to approve named executive officer compensation every year. Consistent with the recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Company, the Company has determined to hold the advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year until the next required vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.
