EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Huntsman Corporation (the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 26, 2023 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The Original Form 8-K reported the final voting results of the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on April 21, 2023 (the “2023 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.

 

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 2023 Annual Meeting, a majority of the Company’s stockholders that voted on the matter indicated a preference to hold future Say-on-Pay votes every year as follows:

 

1 year   2 years   3 years   Abstain 
 148,785,128    107,505    8,295,794    571,383 

 

In light of these results and in accordance with its previous recommendation in the proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting, the Company’s Board of Directors determined 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 2029 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
