Explanatory Note
Trinity Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed May 3, 2011 solely for the purpose of disclosing under Item 5.07 of Form 8-K its decision, following its Annual Meeting of Stockholders, as to the frequency with which it expects to hold an advisory stockholder vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. This Amendment No. 1 does not otherwise revise the May 3, 2011 Form 8-K in any way.
Item 5.07   Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held May 2, 2011, consistent with the recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors, stockholders cast the highest numbers of votes for an annual frequency for future advisory votes on executive compensation. In light of this vote and consistent with the previous recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Board determined at its September 8, 2011 meeting that, until the next vote on the frequency of stockholder votes on executive compensation, the Company will hold future advisory votes on executive compensation every year.
