Item 5.03 Amendments of Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
On December 21, 2023, the Board of Directors of Five Star Bancorp (the “Company”) approved the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”). The Bylaws were amended to reflect the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the use of universal proxy cards in contested director elections, along with certain other technical changes related thereto.
The Bylaws require shareholders of the Company to provide a notice of intention to solicit proxies in support of director nominees in accordance with Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and to deliver a proxy statement to the percentage of capital stock required to elect the nominee. The Company may also require the shareholders to furnish supplemental information reasonably requested by the Company and reasonable evidence that such shareholders have met the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(3) under the Exchange Act. The Company will also be permitted to disregard proxies or votes solicited for such shareholders’ nominees if such shareholders fail to comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(2) and Rule 14a-19(a)(3) under the Exchange Act.
The foregoing summary is not, nor is it intended to be, a complete or comprehensive summary of all of the changes to the Bylaws, and it is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Bylaws, a copy of which is being filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
