ITEM 5.03 |
Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year |
On August 8, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved new AMEX listing standards setting forth Direct Registration System (“DRS”) eligibility requirements, which require companies to become DRS eligible by January 1, 2008. DRS enables investors to maintain securities electronically on the books of a transfer agent or issuer, and allows for the electronic transfer of securities. To meet DRS requirements, on June 6, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors amended and restated its Bylaws to permit the issuance and transfer of uncertificated shares. Previously, the Company’s Bylaws provided every Company shareholder with the right to have a certificate certifying the number of shares owned by such shareholder. Such changes to the Bylaws are reflected in Article VI, Sections 1 and 6.
