Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
(a) On April 29, 2021, the Board of Directors approved amendments to the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company. Below is a brief description of the substantive amendments.
•Section 2.01 (Annual Meetings) was amended to remove the default date for the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders, providing that the Company’s board of directors will designate the annual meeting date each year.
•2.05 (Notice of Meeting) and Section 2.10 (Proxies) were amended to provide for electronic transmission of notice of a meeting of shareholders or of shareholder proxies.
•Section 2.14(a)(i) (Notice of Shareholder Business and Nomination of Directors – Annual Meetings) was amended to clarify that clause (C) of such subsection is the exclusive means for a shareholder to make nominations or propose business (other than business included in the Company’s proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act of 1934) at an annual meeting of shareholders.
•Section 2.14(a)(ii) (Notice of Shareholder Business and Nomination of Directors – Annual Meetings) was amended to provide that, to be timely, a shareholder’s notice of nominations or a proposal of business to be conducted at an annual meeting of shareholders must be received by the Secretary of the Company not less than 80 days nor more than 105 days prior to the first annual anniversary of the immediately preceding annual meeting. Prior to the amendment, the period for such notice was calculated by reference to the anniversary of the mailing date of the proxy materials for the immediately preceding annual meeting.
•Section 2.14(a)(ii) (Notice of Shareholder Business and Nomination of Directors – Annual Meetings) was further amended to provide that the Company may require a proposed director nominee to furnish a completed and signed questionnaire in substantially the form that the Company requires of the Company’s directors and to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Company to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director of the Company, that could be material to a reasonable shareholder’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such nominee or that, in the Board of Directors’ judgment, is material to the Board of Directors’ ability to make recommendations to shareholders.
•Section 2.14 (Notice of Shareholder Business and Nomination of Directors) was amended to provide that a shareholder providing notice of nominations or a proposal of business to be conducted at a meeting of shareholders must provide the Company with certain information about the shares of the Company’s common stock in which the shareholder holds derivative or other interests.
•Section 3.12 (Committees) was amended to reduce the minimum number of directors on a committee of the Board of Directors of from two to one.
These amendments are effective April 29, 2021. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual text of the amendments.
