Explanatory Note
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (Amendment No. 1) (the “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by United Natural Foods, Inc. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 19, 2011 (the “Original 8-K”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the decision by the Company’s Board of Directors regarding how frequently the Company will conduct future advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
(d) As previously reported, the Company held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders on December 13, 2011 (the “Annual Meeting”). In its Original 8-K, the Company reported the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting, including the approval by its stockholders, on an advisory basis, of the Board of Directors’ recommendation to hold an advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year.
In light of stockholder approval at the Annual Meeting to hold an advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year, the Company’s Board of Directors has determined to hold an advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year, until the next required advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. The Company is required to hold an advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every six years.
