On August 28, 2012, the Board of Directors of First Community Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) voted to amend and restate the bylaws of the Company to require advance notice of stockholder proposed business prior to any annual meeting. In addition to other requirements, to be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be given to the Secretary of the Company not less than sixty (60) days nor more than ninety (90) days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders, if applicable. Section 2.2 of ARTICLE II of the Amended and Restated Bylaws sets forth the full requirements for a stockholder’s notice to be compliant.

 

Moreover, at any special meeting of stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the special meeting. Section 2.8 of ARTICLE II of the Amended and Restated Bylaws sets forth the proper procedures for bringing business before any special meeting.

 

The Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
