Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
At a meeting held on January 17, 2013, the Board of Directors, with the approval of its Independent Directors Committee, amended the Company's Bylaws to (a) remove Section 5.3 (and renumber the subsequent Sections of Article V) and (b) remove from Section 12.1 a statement that Section 5.3 could only be altered, amended or repealed with the approval of the Independent Directors Committee or with the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Class A common stock which are voted with respect to the alteration, amendment or repeal.
Prior to its removal, Section 5.3 required that the Board of Directors appoint an Independent Directors Committee consisting of three or more directors, none of whom was an officer or employee of the Company and none of whom was a security holder, director, officer or employee of LNR Property Corporation (“LNR”) or a subsidiary of LNR, the principal functions of which were to review and approve or disapprove transactions between the Company and its more than 50% owned subsidiaries and LNR or any entity of which LNR owns more than 25% of the equity.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
At a meeting held on January 17, 2013, the Board of Directors voted to continue to have an Independent Directors Committee, but with different functions from those of the Independent Directors Committee that had been required by Section 5.3 of the Bylaws before it was removed from the Bylaws, and adopted a Charter for the Independent Directors Committee.
