On May 25, 2016, PC Connection, Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), at which a quorum was present in person or by proxy.
At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2007 Plan”), which increased the number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2007 Plan from 1,600,000 to 1,700,000 shares, representing an increase of 100,000 shares. The amendment to the 2007 Plan had previously been adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors.
The 2007 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and other stock-based awards to our employees, officers, directors, consultants, and advisors, including those of our subsidiaries. The maximum number of shares with respect to which awards may be granted to any participant under the 2007 Plan may not exceed 250,000 shares per calendar year. A summary of the 2007 Plan was provided in the definitive proxy statement filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 7, 2016 under the heading “Proposal Three – Approval of Amendment to Amended and Restated 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended.” A copy of the 2007 Plan, including all amendments, is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
