Proxy Access Provisions: The amended Bylaws allow a stockholder or a group of up to 20 stockholders owning 3% or more of the voting power continuously for at least three years to nominate director candidates. These nominees may constitute up to the greater of two individuals or 20% of the number of directors in office and be included in the Corporation's proxy statement for an annual meeting, subject to specified requirements.
Management Commentary: The filing confirms that the departures of the three directors are routine retirements coinciding with the expiration of their terms and are not indicative of internal conflict.
