Item5.03 |
Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year. |
●
|
Revisions to Section 2.14, which sets forth procedures that shareholders must follow to nominate candidates for director and propose business at shareholder meetings, to reflect the Securities and Exchange Commission's adoption of new Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") concerning "universal proxies." Among other things, Rule 14a-19 requires that in a contested director election, management and shareholders soliciting proxy votes for their candidates must include on the proxy card they send to shareholders all director nominees presented by management and shareholders for election at the shareholders meeting. The amendments to Section 2.14 include, without limitation:
|
o
|
in accordance with Rule 14a-19, a requirement that shareholders nominating their own director candidates solicit holders of at least 67 percent of the voting power of the shares of the Registrant's common stock entitled to vote in the election, and that shareholders provide the Registrant with advance notice of their intent to do so;
|
o
|
a requirement that the nominating shareholder provide the nominee's written consent to being named on the proxy card for the meeting and to serving for a full term if elected and
|
o
|
a provision that if a shareholder provides the required notice under Rule 14a-19 or includes such information in a proxy statement previously filed by the shareholder, but subsequently fails either to comply with Rule 14a-19 or to provide reasonable evidence of its compliance as requested by the Registrant, then the Registrant shall disregard the nomination and any proxies voted or votes solicited for the shareholder's nominees;
|
●
|
A requirement that a shareholder who solicits proxies from other shareholders must use a proxy card color other than white, which is reserved for the exclusive use of the Registrant's Board of Directors;
|
●
|
A provision permitting the Board of Directors to authorize a virtual shareholders meeting or the remote participation of shareholders in a shareholders meeting that is held in a physical place, in accordance with Louisiana law and
|
●
|
Other technical, clarifying and/or conforming changes.
