Material Changes
The Board of Directors authorized an amendment to the Rights Agreement dated October 28, 1998. The material changes include:
- Revision of "Acquiring Person" Definition: The definition was revised to exclude a person who inadvertently becomes an Acquiring Person due to the Company's acquisition of its own common stock, unless that person subsequently acquires additional shares totaling 1% or more of the Company's common stock.
- Clarification of Redemption and Termination: A sentence in the Redemption and Termination section was deleted to clarify the section's intent.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
