Item 5.03 Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
On September 28, 2007, the Board adopted an amendment to Article III, Section 3.2 of the Company’s bylaws (the “Bylaws”) to increase the number of directors to eight (8). Set forth below is the text of the revised Bylaw provision:
3.2 NUMBER OF DIRECTORS
The board of directors shall consist of eight (8) members. The number of directors may be changed by an amendment to this bylaw, duly adopted by the board of directors or by the stockholders, or by a duly adopted amendment to the certificate of incorporation. No reduction of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any director before that director’s term of office expires. If for any cause, the directors shall not have been elected at an annual meeting, they may be elected as soon thereafter as convenient at a special meeting of the stockholders called for that purpose in the manner provided in these Bylaws.
