EXPLANATORY NOTE
 
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Vaxart, Inc. (the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 28, 2023 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The Original Form 8-K was filed to report the results of the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2023 Annual Meeting”). In accordance with Item 5.07(d) of Form 8-K, this Amendment discloses the Company’s decision as to the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes regarding executive compensation (“Say-on-Pay Votes”). Except as set forth herein, 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 disclosed, at the 2023 Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders voted on a non-binding advisory basis on the frequency of the advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officer (the “Say-on-Frequency Proposal”). A majority of the votes at the 2023 Annual Meeting were cast in favor of conducting advisory Say-on-Pay Votes once every year.
 
After considering the results of the advisory vote on the Say-on-Pay Frequency Proposal, on October 18, 2023, the Company’s board of directors decided that it will include an advisory vote on the compensation paid to the named executive officers in its proxy materials every year until the next required vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on named executive officer compensation.
