Item 5.03 | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year. |
On April 15, 2014, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Allied Nevada Gold Corp. (the “Company”) approved an amendment of Article IX of the Company’s By-laws (the “By-laws”), which sets forth the requirements to amend the By-Laws. As amended, Article IX provides that (i) Article IX may only be amended by a majority vote of stockholders, and (ii) all other By-Laws may be amended by a majority vote of stockholders or the Board. Prior to the amendment, a two-thirds vote of stockholders or the Board was required to amend the By-Laws, except for Article VIII of the By-Laws, which required an eighty percent (80%) vote of stockholders to amend. The amendment to the By-laws is effective immediately.
The foregoing description of the amendment to the Company’s By-laws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the By-laws, as conformed to reflect the April 15, 2014 amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
