Explanatory Note

This Form 8-K/A is being filed as an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 9, 2015, by Ring Energy, Inc. (the “Company”), in order to update the information disclosed under “Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders” regarding the results of voting at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on June 5, 2015 (the “Annual Meeting”).

This Amendment is being filed solely for the purpose of disclosing the determination of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) with respect to the frequency of stockholder advisory votes on executive compensation. This Form 8-K/A does not amend or modify the original Form 8-K in any other respect.

At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders voted on, among other matters, a proposal regarding the frequency of stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers (the “Say on Frequency Proposal”). As previously reported by the Company, a majority of the votes cast on the Say on Frequency Proposal were cast in favor of holding stockholder advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers every year.

The Company has considered the outcome of this advisory vote and has determined that the Company will hold future votes on the compensation of named executive officers each year until the occurrence of the next advisory vote on the frequency of stockholder votes on executive compensation.
