EXPLANATORY NOTE
This current report on Form 8-K/A is being filed as an amendment (this “Amendment”) to the current report on Form 8-K filed by Express, Inc. (the “Company”) on June 9, 2011 (the “Original Report”). The Original Report was filed to report the results of the matters submitted to a vote at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held June 3, 2011 (the “Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company’s decision with respect to how frequently the Company will hold an advisory vote on executive compensation. Except for the foregoing, this Amendment does not amend, modify or update the disclosures contained in the Original Report.
Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
(d) At the Annual Meeting, the Company held an advisory vote on the frequency of a stockholder vote on executive compensation. As previously reported in the Original Report, the Company’s stockholders recommended holding an advisory vote on executive compensation every three years. In light of, and consistent with, the voting results, the Company’s Board of Directors has determined that the Company will hold future advisory votes on executive compensation every three years, until the next required advisory vote on this matter, which shall be no later than the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders in 2017, or until the Company’s Board of Directors elects to implement a different frequency for such advisory votes.
