Item 5.03
|
Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; change in Fiscal Year.
|
On September 17, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a change to the Company’s Bylaws to change the voting standards for meetings of shareholders.
As revised, the bylaws provide that when a quorum is present, most matters, including the election of directors, will be decided by the vote of the majority of the shares voting with respect to the matter. Abstentions will not be counted as shares voting with respect to a matter. Matters that will be determined by plurality voting include: election of directors if there are more director nominees than directorships to be filled; and matters that have more than two alternatives (other than abstain or withhold authority) (Article I, Section 7).
The foregoing description is a summary only, and is qualified by reference to the copy of the Bylaws, as amended and restated, included as Exhibit 3.3 to this report.
