Item 5.03 | Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year. |
On April 9, 2019, our board of directors, believing it to be in the best interests of MedAmerica Properties Inc. and our stockholders, approved a proposed amendment to our bylaws to remove Section 2.2 of our bylaws, which prohibited MedAmerica from compensating our directors (the “bylaw amendment”) and recommended to our stockholders adoption of the bylaw amendment and ratification of past compensation paid by MedAmerica to our directors (the “board compensation”). Delaware law permits the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares to approve the bylaw amendment and ratify the board compensation by written consent without holding a meeting. To avoid the significant costs and delays associated with holding a meeting, our board elected to seek approval of the bylaw amendment and ratification of board compensation by written consent. On April 12, 2019, the holders of a total of 1,504,567 shares of our common stock, which represents approximately 57.6% of the shares entitled to vote on the bylaw amendment and ratification of board compensation, consented in writing without a meeting to the amendment and ratification. Pursuant to Rule 14c-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the proposed bylaw amendment and ratification of board compensation could not be completed until twenty calendar days after the mailing of an information statement to our stockholders describing these actions. On April 26, 2019, we mailed the required information statement to our stockholders, and the bylaw amendment and ratification of board compensation became effective upon expiration of the twenty-day waiting period, on May 16, 2019. For more information, please see our Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 26, 2019.
This description of the bylaw amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the amended and restated bylaws which are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
