EXPLANATORY NOTE
Proterra Inc (the “Company”) is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) to amend the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 2, 2022 (the “Original 8-K”). The Original 8-K reported the final voting results of the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 26, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Meeting”). This Amendment is being filed to disclose the Company’s decision as to how frequently it will conduct future stockholder advisory votes on named executive officer compensation (“say on pay”). No other changes have been made to the Original 8-K.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
As disclosed in the Original 8-K, the Company’s stockholders voted at the 2022 Annual Meeting meeting, on an advisory basis, to hold an advisory say on pay vote, on the compensation of our named executive officers every year. Based on these results, and consistent with its recommendation to stockholders, the Board has determined that the Company will hold a say on pay vote every year unless changed as a result of a subsequent vote on the frequency of future say on pay votes or until the Board of Directors of the Company determines that it is in the best interests of the Company to hold such vote with a different frequency. The Company expects to hold its next vote on the frequency of future say on pay votes no later than its 2028 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
