Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
|
Amendment to Bylaws
On May 5, 2020, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Entercom Communications Corp. (the “Company”), at the recommendation of the Company’s Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee approved and adopted an amendment to the Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”). The amendment to Section 5.02 of the Bylaws provides for a “Plurality Plus” voting standard with respect to uncontested elections of directors.
Each person who is nominated to stand for election as a director shall, as a condition to such nomination, tender an irrevocable resignation in advance of the meeting for the election of directors.
In an uncontested election:
- If any nominee who is not an incumbent director does not receive a majority of the votes cast (excluding broker non-vote and abstentions), then the resignation of such nominee will be automatically accepted.
- If any nominee who is an incumbent director does not receive a majority of the votes cast (excluding broker non-vote and abstentions), then the Nominating / Corporate Governance Committee will make a recommendation to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors will consider the Committee’s recommendation and publicly disclose the Board of Directors’ decision and the basis for that decision within 90 days from the date of the certification of the final election results. The subject director(s) will not participate in the decision.
The amendment to the Bylaws is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report.
