Item 5.08 Shareholder Director Nominations.
The information below under Item 8.01 of this Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.08, to the extent applicable.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
The Board of Directors of SEACOR Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has established June 5, 2018 as the date of the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2018 Annual Meeting”). Because the date of the 2018 Annual Meeting is being advanced by more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2017 Annual Meeting”), in accordance with Rule 14a-5(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company is informing stockholders of this change.
The time and location of the 2018 Annual Meeting will be specified in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2018 Annual Meeting. Because the date of the 2018 Annual Meeting has been changed by more than 30 days from the anniversary of the 2017 Annual Meeting, a new deadline has been set for submission of proposals by stockholders intended to be included in the Company’s 2018 proxy statement.
Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), a shareholder intending to present a proposal to be included in the proxy statement for the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting must deliver a proposal in writing to the Company’s principal executive offices no later than a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and mail the proxy materials for the 2018 Annual Meeting. Accordingly, the new deadline for submission of proposals to be included in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2018 Annual Meeting is the close of business (5:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on Friday, April 6, 2018. Proposals should be delivered or mailed to and received by the Company’s Secretary at SEACOR Holdings Inc., 2200 Eller Drive, P.O. Box 13038, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33316. Proposals of stockholders must also comply with the SEC’s rules regarding the inclusion of shareholder proposals in proxy materials and the Company may omit any proposal from its proxy materials that does not comply with the SEC’s rules.
The Company’s Bylaws set forth when a stockholder must provide notice to the Company of director nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting. Because the date of the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting is more than 25 days from the anniversary date of the 2017 Annual Meeting, to be considered timely, notice by the stockholders must be received by the Company not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the date on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Company. As a result, these notices must be delivered or mailed to and received by the Company’s Secretary by the close of business (5:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on Friday, March 30, 2018 at the Company’s principal executive offices as indicated above. A stockholder’s notice to the Secretary must set forth the information described in the Company’s Bylaws as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting. A copy of the Company’s Bylaws is available on the SEC website attached as Exhibit 3.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 28, 2013 or can be obtained by contacting the Company’s Secretary at the address above.
