EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

On November 17, 2020, Zivo Bioscience, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Report”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission to report the voting results of the 2020 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2020 Annual Meeting”), including, among other matters, the approval, on an advisory basis, of the frequency of future non-binding stockholder advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (“say-on-pay votes”). The sole purpose of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A is to disclose, pursuant to Item 5.07(d) of Form 8-K, the Board of Directors’ determination on the frequency of future say-on-pay votes. Except for the foregoing, this Current Report on Form 8-K/A does not modify or update any other disclosure contained in the Original Report, and this Current Report on Form 8-K/A should be read in conjunction with the Original Report.

 

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

(d) A non-binding advisory vote was taken at the 2020 Annual Meeting on the frequency of future say-on-pay votes. The Company’s stockholders cast the greatest number of votes in favor of holding future say-on-pay votes on an annual basis. The Board has determined, consistent with the vote of the Company's stockholders, that the Company will hold future say-on-pay votes on an annual basis until the next required vote on the frequency of say-on-pay votes is presented to stockholders.
