Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On February 15, 2008, in compliance with Nasdaq and DTC direct registration requirements, the Company’s Board of Directors amended Article V, Section 4 of its Bylaws to authorize uncertificated securities. Previously, the Bylaws did not address this topic.
The amendment replaces the first sentence of Article V, Section 4 with the following:
The shares of capital stock of the corporation shall be represented by a certificate, unless and until the Board of Directors of the corporation adopts a resolution permitting shares to be uncertificated as well. Notwithstanding the adoption of any such resolution providing for uncertificated shares, every holder of capital stock of the corporation theretofore represented by certificates and, upon request, every holder of uncertificated shares, shall be entitled to have a certificate for shares of capital stock of the corporation signed by, or in the name of the corporation by, (a) the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, the President or any Executive Vice President, and (b) the Chief Financial Officer, the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, certifying the number of shares owned by such stockholder in the corporation.
