This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) is being filed to update the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) on June 16, 2023 (the “Original 8-K”).

No changes have been made to the Original 8-K.

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As previously reported in the Original 8-K, shareholders at the Company's 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 15, 2023, voted, on a non-binding advisory basis, in favor of holding future advisory votes on executive compensation every year. The Company’s Board of Directors has considered the outcome of that vote and decided that the Company will hold future non-binding, advisory votes on executive compensation every year until the Company’s Board of Directors otherwise determines that a different frequency for such non-binding, advisory votes is in the best interest of the Company or until the next required vote on the frequency of such votes.
