TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
(a) Effective December 18, 2006, Section 3.01 of our Bylaws was amended to add a new Section 3.01(d). Section 3.01(d) requires a director nominee (including an incumbent director) to agree to submit an irrevocable resignation if he or she does not receive a Majority Vote in an election in which the number of candidates does not exceed the number of directors to be elected. The effectiveness of any such resignation will be contingent upon the Board of Directors’ acceptance. The Management Development, Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board will recommend to the Board whether such resignation should be accepted or rejected. The Board must accept or reject any such resignation based upon such factors as the Board deems appropriate within 90 days after the election. “Majority Vote” means that when there is a quorum present more than 50% of the votes cast in the election of such director were “for” the election of such director, with votes cast being equal to the total of the votes “for” the election of such director plus the votes “withheld” from the election of such director.
Our Bylaws, as amended, are filed as Exhibit 3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual text of our Bylaws.
