On September 10, 2013, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of DDR Corp. (the “Company”) approved the restatement of its Articles of Incorporation and the amendment and restatement of its Code of Regulations, as described below.
The Company restated its Articles of Incorporation by filing its Third Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Articles”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Ohio on September 13, 2013. The Amended and Restated Articles consolidate all amendments previously filed with the Ohio Secretary of State, inclusive of the Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation filed May 8, 2009 through Amendment No. 6 to the Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation filed May 15, 2013.
The Board also adopted an Amended and Restated Code of Regulations of the Company (the “Amended and Restated Code”). The Amended and Restated Code includes the following principal changes from the Company’s Amended and Restated Code of Regulations previously in effect:
| • | reflects the current name of the Company; |
| • | includes gender-neutral language; |
| • | expressly authorizes the creation of standing or special subcommittees, in addition to standing or special committees; |
| • | clarifies the duties and powers of the chief executive officer and president if such offices are not held by the same person and makes various conforming changes; |
| • | provides that (i) except as expressly required by law, the Amended and Restated Articles or other provisions of the Amended and Restated Code, at any meetings of shareholders at which a quorum is present, a majority of votes cast, whether in person or by proxy, on any matter properly brought before such meeting will be the act of the shareholders and (ii) an abstention shall not represent a vote cast; and |
| • | deletes inapplicable provisions expressly related to transactions with certain affiliates at the time of the Company’s initial public offering, as such entities are no longer affiliates of the Company. |
The Amended and Restated Articles and the Amended and Restated Code are filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 3.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
