Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On March 13, 2006, Integral Systems, Inc. elected by resolution of its Board of Directors, notwithstanding any provision in its charter or bylaws to the contrary, to become subject to Sections 3-803, 3-804 and 3-805 of Subtitle 8 of Title 3 of the Maryland General Corporation Law (“MGCL”), all as more particularly described in the Articles Supplementary filed as part of Exhibit 3 hereto. The Articles Supplementary were filed with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation, and became effective, on March 13, 2006. Section 3-803 of the MGCL requires the Board of Directors, before the first annual meeting of stockholders after the Company elects to be subject to Section 3-803, to designate by resolution, from among its members, directors to serve as class I directors, class II directors and class III directors. The term of each such class shall expire in successive years, as more fully described below in “Item 8.01 – Other Events.” At each annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company, the successors to the class of directors whose term expires at that meeting shall be elected to hold office for a term continuing until the annual meeting of stockholders held in the third year following the year of their election and their successors are elected and qualify. Section 3-804 of the MGCL requires the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all of the votes entitled to be cast by the stockholders generally in the election of directors to remove a director, and then only for cause in accordance with Section 2-406(b)(3) of the MGCL, and vests in the Board of Directors the power to fix the number of directors by resolution and to fill any vacancies on the Board of Directors for the remainder of the full term of the class of directors in which the vacancy occurred and until a successor is elected and qualifies. Section 3-805 of the MGCL states that the secretary of the Company may only call a special meeting of the stockholders on the written request of the stockholders entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting and in accordance with the procedures set forth under Section 2-502(b)(2) and (3) and (e) of the MGCL.
