Item 5.03 - Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On May 1, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company approved and adopted an amendment to the Company's By-Laws. The amendment to the By-Laws is effective immediately upon approval by the Board of Directors. The amendment added a new Article VIII to the By-laws, which provides that, unless the Company consents to an alternative forum, a state or federal court within the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Company's stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware; or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine. The Board believes that the exclusive forum provision provided by the amendment is in the best interests of the Company because it will focus any future litigation covered by the provision in one jurisdiction, avoiding the risk, uncertainty and expense from concurrent multi-jurisdictional litigation. The provision does not preclude any type of legal actions against the Company or its directors, officers or other employees or limit or adversely impact any property right vested in the Company's stockholders; rather, it directs certain legal actions to a single jurisdiction, with the goal of securing a more efficient and effective resolution of those legal actions. The foregoing description of the amendment to the By-Laws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Company's Amended and Restated By-Laws, which are attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
