Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A amends the Current Report on Form 8-K of Seneca Biopharma, Inc. (the “Company”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 9, 2020 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The Original Form 8-K reported the final voting results of Proposal 6 of the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on August 7, 2020 (the “2020 Annual Meeting”). The purpose of this amendment is to disclose the Company’s decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future stockholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (“Say-On-Pay”). No other changes have been made to the Original Form 8-K.

 

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

 

As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, in a non-binding, advisory vote on the frequency of future Say-On-Pay votes held at the 2020 Annual Meeting, 2,949,201 votes were cast for one year, 237,046 votes were cast for two years, 2,167,362 votes were cast for three years, 367,533 votes abstained and there were 6,023,458 broker non-votes. The Company has considered the outcome of this advisory vote and has determined it will hold future Say-On-Pay votes every year until the occurrence of the next advisory vote on the frequency of Say-On-Pay. The next advisory vote on the frequency of Say-On-Pay is required to occur not later than the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
