EXPLANATORY NOTE

This current report on Form 8-K/A (the "Amendment") amends the current report on Form 8-K dated June 19, 2017 filed by DXP Enterprises, Inc. (the "Company") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Original Form 8-K"). The Original Form 8-K reported the final voting results of the Company's 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 19, 2017 (the "2017 Annual Meeting"). The sole 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.

 

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 2017 Annual Meeting, 10,940,075 shares of Common Stock voted for one year, 4,311 shares of Common Stock voted for two years, 2,573,818 shares of Common Stock voted for three years, 37,608 shares of Common Stock abstained, 500 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Stock voted for one year, no shares of Series B Preferred Stock or Series A Preferred Stock voted for two years, three years, or abstained. The Company has considered the outcome of this advisory vote and has determined, as was recommended with respect to this proposal by the Company's board of directors in the proxy statement for the 2017 Annual Meeting, that the Company will hold future Say On Pay votes on an annual basis until the occurrence of the next advisory vote on the frequency of Say On Pay votes. The next advisory vote regarding the frequency of Say On Pay votes is required to occur no later than the Company's 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
