Item 5.03 Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
On August 8, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved new AMEX listing standards setting forth Direct Registration System (“DRS”) eligibility requirements. DRS enables investors to maintain securities electronically on the books of a transfer agent or issuer, and allows for the electronic transfer of securities. To meet DRS requirements, on May 11, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors amended and restated its bylaws to permit the issuance and transfer of uncertificated shares.
A copy of the Amended and Restated Bylaws is attached as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated into this Item 5.03 by reference.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
