Item 8.01. Other Events
Vectren Corporation's 2016 Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A that was printed and distributed to shareholders on March 29, 2016, contained a typographical error. This error was corrected in the electronic version filed via EDGAR on March 29, 2016.
In the printed and distributed copy of the 2016 Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, the first paragraph on page 79 under "Shareholder Proposals for 2017 Annual Meeting" read:
"Under Rule 14a-8 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, shareholders of the Company may present proper proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and for consideration at the 2016 annual meeting of its shareholders by submitting their proposals to the Company in a timely manner. In order to be so included for the 2016 annual meeting, shareholder proposals must be received at the Company’s principal office, One Vectren Square, 211 N.W. Riverside Drive, Evansville, Indiana 47708, Attention: Corporate Secretary, no later than November 29, 2016 and must otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8."
That paragraph should have read:
“Under Rule 14a-8 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, shareholders of the Company may present proper proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and for consideration at the 2017 annual meeting of its shareholders by submitting their proposals to the Company in a timely manner. In order to be so included for the 2017 annual meeting, shareholder proposals must be received at the Company’s principal office, One Vectren Square, 211 N.W. Riverside Drive, Evansville, Indiana 47708, Attention: Corporate Secretary, no later than November 29, 2016 and must otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8.”
This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed to clarify certain of the disclosures as explained above.
