Explanatory Note

On May 22, 2017, Lear Corporation (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K relating to the voting results at its annual meeting of stockholders on May 18, 2017 (the “Annual Meeting”). This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed solely to disclose the determination of the Board of Directors of the Company regarding how frequently the Company will include in its proxy materials an advisory vote on the compensation of its named executive officers (“Say on Pay Vote”).

Section 5 — Corporate Governance and Management

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

As previously reported, consistent with the Board of Directors’ recommendation at the Annual Meeting, stockholders holding a majority of shares voted for the one-year option with respect to the frequency of future Say On Pay Votes of the Company. Accordingly, in light of these voting results and other factors, the Board of Directors has determined that the Company will hold Say on Pay Votes every year until the next stockholder advisory vote on the frequency of Say on Pay Votes, which, in accordance with applicable law, will occur no later than the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders in 2023.
