Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
(a) On November 7, 2007, by action of its Board of Directors, the Company amended and restated its Bylaws. Descriptions of the provisions adopted or changed and, if applicable, the previous provisions are provided below. These descriptions are summaries and are qualified in their entirety by the Bylaws filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1, the text of which is incorporated by reference in this Item 5.03.
In August 2006, Nasdaq adopted rules requiring that listed securities be eligible for a Direct Registration Program by January 1, 2008. A Direct Registration Program permits an investor’s ownership to be recorded and maintained on the books of the issuer or the transfer agent without the issuance of a physical stock certificate. Since the Company’s Bylaws were silent on the issue of uncertificated shares, the Company’s Board of Directors determined that, in order for the Company’s securities to be eligible for a Direct Registration Program, it was necessary and appropriate to amend Article IV, Section 6(b) and Article VI, Sections 1, 2 and 3 of the Company’s Bylaws to provide the Company with the ability to have uncertificated shares. As amended, the Bylaws permit the Company to issue certificated or uncertificated shares.
