Item 8.01. Announcement of Shareholder Meeting.
On December 28, 2016, Pillarstone Capital REIT (the “Company”) announced that its Board of Trustees has set May 11, 2017 as the date of the 2017 annual meeting of shareholders and the close of business on February 13, 2017, as the record date for determining shareholders entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the 2017 annual meeting of shareholders.
The annual meeting date represents a change of more than 30 days from the anniversary of the Company’s 2016 annual meeting of shareholders. As a result, the Company has set a new deadline for the receipt of any shareholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) for the 2017 annual meeting of shareholders. Any such shareholder proposal must be submitted in writing and received by the Secretary of the Company at 10011 Valley Forge Drive, Houston, Texas 77042 not later than 5:00 pm Central Time on January 11, 2017, which the Company has determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and send its proxy materials.
In addition, in accordance with the advance notice provisions set forth in the Company’s Bylaws, shareholders who wish to bring business before the 2017 annual meeting of shareholders outside of Rule 14a-8 or to nominate a person for election as a trustee must ensure that written notice of such proposal is received by the Secretary of the Company 10011 Valley Forge Drive, Houston, Texas 77042 not later than 5:00 pm Central Time on February 10, 2017.
