Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Changes in Fiscal Year
At its annual meeting of directors held on June 7, 2007, the board of directors of Brooke Capital Corporation, formerly known as First American Capital Corporation (the “Company”), amended the Company’s bylaws regarding the nomination of directors by the board of directors. The bylaws, as amended, now provide that with respect to nominations made by or at the direction of the board, if over 50% of the voting power of the Company is owned by an individual, group, or another Company, the directors meeting the independent standards imposed by applicable law or any stock exchange on which the Company is listed shall have neither the right nor the obligation as directors to cast votes for nominations of directors, unless specifically required by applicable law or a stock exchanges upon which the Company is listed. Such right and obligation will now rest solely with the authorized representatives of the controlling individual, group or other company. Similar changes were made to the Company’s bylaws with respect to board action to fill vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from an increase in the authorized number of directors.
Item 8.01. Other Events
At the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders held on June 7, 2007, the shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s bylaws to change the name of the Company from “First American Capital Corporation” to “Brooke Capital Corporation”.
