Explanatory Note.

This Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Amendment”) is being filed as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Paychex, Inc. (the “Company”) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on October 12, 2017 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The Original Form 8-K reported the final voting results from the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on October 11, 2017 (the “Annual Meeting”). The purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the decision by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) regarding the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes on named executive officer compensation (“Say-on-Pay”). Except as set forth herein, no other modifications have been made to information contained in the Original Form 8-K.

 

Item 5.07.

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

(d) As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, in a non-binding advisory vote, a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting voted for one year as the frequency to hold future Say-on-Pay votes.  

As a result of this advisory vote, the Board determined that the Company will hold future Say-on-Pay votes every year until the occurrence of the next advisory vote on the frequency of Say-on-Pay votes, which is required to be held no later than the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.
