Specifically, in the Proxy Statement filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2012, the Board of Directors recommends that Clorox's shareholders vote to approve an amendment to the Company's 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2005 Plan") to increase the number of shares that may be issued under the 2005 Plan by an additional 2,900,000 shares.
