Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
On April 5, 2017, the Board of Directors of Digirad Corporation (the "Company") approved, and adopted effective as of such date, an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Amended and Restated Bylaws of Digirad Corporation (the "Bylaws"). The Amendment amends Article III Section 13 of the Bylaws to clarify the procedure regarding the removal of directors, consistent with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
Article III Section 13 of the Bylaws is amended by the Amendment to read as follows, with deletions shown by a strike-through and new text by an underline:
Section 13. Removal. Subject to any limitations imposed by law or the Certificate of Incorporation, any Director or the entire Board of Directors, or any individual Director, may be removed from office at any time only with cause , with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of Directors.
The Company intends to seek approval of the Company’s stockholders at the 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to make similar changes to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation regarding the removal of directors.
The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1.
