| 2011-1971 | Shareholder Approval of Executive Compensation and Golden Parachute Compensation | Rule | We are adopting amendments to our rules to implement the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act relating to shareholder approval of executive compensation and "golden parachute" compensation arrangements. Section 951 of the Dodd-Frank Act amends the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by adding Section 14A, which requires companies to conduct a separate shareholder advisory vote to approve the compensation of executives, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K or any successor to Item 402. Section 14A also requires companies to conduct a separate shareholder advisory vote to determine how often an issuer will conduct a shareholder advisory vote on executive compensation. In addition, Section 14A requires companies soliciting votes to approve merger or acquisition transactions to provide disclosure of certain "golden parachute" compensation arrangements and, in certain circumstances, to conduct a separate shareholder advisory vote to approve the golden parachute compensation arrangements. | 2011-02-02 | 2011 | 2 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2011/02/02/2011-1971/shareholder-approval-of-executive-compensation-and-golden-parachute-compensation | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2011-02-02/pdf/2011-1971.pdf | Securities and Exchange Commission | 466 | We are adopting amendments to our rules to implement the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act relating to shareholder approval of executive compensation and "golden parachute" compensation arrangements.
