Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

Effective February 26, 2015, we amended our Certificate of Incorporation to remove the board size provision and update the classified board provision.  Pursuant to the staggered board provision, the directors shall be divided into three classes, designated Class I, Class II, and Class III.  Class I shall consist of up to three directors, Class II shall consist of up to three directors, and Class III shall consist of up to three directors.  Each such director shall serve for a term ending on the date of the third annual meeting of shareholders following the annual meeting at which the director was elected.  In order to implement a classified Board of directors, Class I shall serve a twelve (12) month term from the date of the 2013 annual stockholders meeting; Class II shall serve a twenty four (24) month term from the date of the 2013 annual stockholders meeting; and Class III shall serve a thirty-six (36) month term from the 2013 annual stockholders meeting.  Directors elected at each annual meeting commencing in 2014 shall be elected for a three year term as specified above. Our board size will be governed by Section 3.1 of our bylaws, that states that “The number of directors who shall constitute the whole board shall be such number not less than one (1) not more than nine (9) as the Board of Directors shall at the time have designated.”

 

The foregoing description of the Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.
