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

This Amendment No. 1 amends the Current Report on Form 8-K of Actuant Corporation (the “Company”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 26, 2018 (the “Original Form 8-K”), which reported voting results from the Company’s Annual Meeting of the Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) held January 23, 2018. At the time of the Original Form 8-K, the Company’s Board of Directors had not made any determinations regarding the frequency of future advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company's Named Executive Officers (NEOs). This Amendment No. 1 updates the Original Form 8-K in order to report that the Company’s Board of Directors has since determined that future advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s NEOs will occur annually. The next advisory vote regarding the frequency of advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s NEOs will take place no later than our Annual Meeting to be held in 2024.
