(the “Amended Bylaws”), which became effective immediately. The Amended Bylaws establish a right for stockholders to call a special meeting and set forth the applicable requirements and procedures in connection therewith, including the time, place, manner, and required disclosures for stockholder-called special meetings. The Amended Bylaws require the Company’s Board of Directors to call a special meeting of its stockholders at the request of stockholders holding at least 30% in the aggregate of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company entitled to vote generally for the election of directors. Requesting stockholders must have held such shares continuously for a period of at least one year prior to the date the special meeting request is delivered. The right to call a special meeting requires that requesting stockholders provide certain information and is subject to timing and other requirements. The Amended Bylaws also incorporate certain clarifying and conforming changes.
