This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends and supplements the Current Report on Form 8-K of BB&T Corporation (the “Corporation”), originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 29, 2011 (the “Initial Filing”). The sole purpose for filing this Form 8-K/A is to disclose the Corporation’s determination with respect to the frequency of future non-binding shareholder advisory votes on the compensation of the Corporation’s named executive officers (each, a “say-on-pay vote”). No other changes have been made to the Initial Filing.

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

On April 26, 2011, the Corporation held its 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. As previously disclosed, a majority of shareholders voted in favor of conducting say-on-pay votes annually. This advisory vote was consistent with the recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”). In light of the shareholder vote, the Board determined at its meeting held on August 23, 2011, that the Corporation will hold a say-on-pay vote annually until the next vote on the frequency of say-on-pay votes is required (which will be no later than the 2017 Annual Meeting of Shareholders) or until the Board determines that a different frequency for say-on-pay votes is in the best interest of the Corporation and its shareholders.
