Item 5.03 | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year. |
On February 25, 2016, the Company’s board of directors adopted an amendment and restatement of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amended and restated, the “Bylaws”), to (i) change the advance notice deadline for director nominations and stockholder proposals for the annual meeting from between 90 and 120 days prior to the anniversary of the prior year’s annual meeting to between 120 and 150 days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year’s proxy statement, in order to align the advance notice deadline with the deadline for submitting stockholder proposals under Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act; (ii) require that stockholders submitting proposals under the advance notice provisions of the Bylaws be a stockholder of record as of the record date of the annual meeting in addition to being a stockholder of record at the time of providing notice, and, unless the chairman of the annual meeting determines otherwise, appear in person at the annual meeting to present the proposal; (iii) remove a provision regarding filling vacancies on the Company’s board of directors that is no longer relevant since the Company has at least three independent directors; (iv) add procedures in the event of an emergency, including notice to directors and quorum for meetings of the Company’s board of directors; (v) remove references to “CBS Corporation”; and (vi) clarify that any committee of the Company’s board of directors may delegate some or all of its powers to one or more subcommittees. In addition, the Bylaws include various clarifying, conforming and ministerial changes. The Bylaws became effective upon adoption by the Company’s board of directors on February 25, 2016.
This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Bylaws, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
