EXPLANATORY NOTE
 
Tractor Supply Company (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 29, 2011 for the sole purpose of disclosing the Company’s decision as to the frequency with which it will include advisory votes on the compensation of its named executive officers in future annual meeting proxy materials.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
 
As previously reported, at the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders a majority of the shares cast voted, on an advisory basis, to hold future advisory votes on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers on an annual basis. After consideration of the stockholder voting results, the Company’s Board of Directors has determined that the Company will hold an annual advisory vote on the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers until the next stockholder advisory vote on the frequency of future votes on executive compensation, which will occur no later than the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders in 2017, or until the Board of Directors otherwise determines that a different frequency for such advisory vote would be in the best interests of the Company’s stockholders.
