The new forum selection provision provides that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Company arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company governed by the internal affairs doctrine shall be a state or federal court located within the state of Delaware, in all cases subject to the court’s having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants. The forum selection provision further provides that any person that purchases or otherwise acquires an interest in stock of the Company will be deemed to have notice of and agree to comply with the foregoing provisions.
The foregoing description of the amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated Bylaws, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this current report and incorporated herein by reference.
