Explanatory Note

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) updates information originally provided under Item 5.07 in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed April 28, 2017 (the “Original Filing”), in which Myers Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) reported voting results for its Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on April 26, 2017, including the voting results for the Company’s advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation (the “Frequency Proposal”). Except for the foregoing, this Amendment does not modify or update any other disclosure contained in the Original Filing, and this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing.

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

On April 28, 2017, the Company reported in the Original Filing that a majority of the votes cast on the Frequency Proposal were cast in favor of conducting advisory votes on executive compensation annually. On May 30, 2017, after taking into consideration the shareholder vote cast on the Frequency Proposal and other factors, the Company’s Board of Directors determined that the Company will conduct advisory votes to approve the compensation of the Company’s executive officers on an annual basis. Accordingly, the Company will include an advisory vote on executive compensation in its proxy materials every year until the next shareholder vote on the frequency of such votes is held which will be no later than the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting of the Shareholders.

SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

Myers Industries, Inc.
