Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year |
On March 30, 2023, the Board of Directors of the company approved the company’s Ninth Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”), effective as of such date, to:
|
• |
|
Update the requirements for stockholder nominations of directors and proposal of business for consideration at meetings of stockholders, including with respect to Rule 14a-19 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), relating to the universal proxy rules; |
|
• |
|
Add a requirement that any stockholder submitting a director nomination notice make a representation as to whether such stockholder intends to comply with Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act, and a requirement that a stockholder submitting such a director nomination notice deliver reasonable evidence that it has complied with the requirements of Rule 14a-19 of the Exchange Act; |
|
• |
|
Require that a stockholder directly or indirectly soliciting proxies from other stockholders use a proxy card color other than white; and |
|
• |
|
Remove the previous requirement that stockholders meet certain ownership thresholds in order to be eligible to submit a proposal to amend the bylaws. Effective immediately, stockholders may amend the bylaws by the affirmative vote of a majority of all votes entitled to be cast pursuant to a proposal properly submitted for approval at a meeting of stockholders. |
The Amended and Restated Bylaws also clarify provisions regulating the conduct of meetings of stockholders and incorporate certain immaterial clarifying, conforming and ministerial changes. With the exception of the changes described above, the Amended and Restated Bylaws remain unchanged from the company’s Eighth Amended and Restated Bylaws.
The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Bylaws, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
