On March 26, 2012, the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board of Directors met and, based on the current size of the Company after a number of divestitures and the backgrounds of the existing directors, among other factors, recommended to the Board that reducing the normal size of the Board of Directors to seven members was in the best interest of the Company. Accordingly, on the same date, the Board of Directors approved the Amended and Restated By-Laws of the Company reducing the normal size of the Board of Directors from nine to seven members and eliminating the requirements that the Chairman of the Board also be the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and that the President of the Company also be the Chief Operating Officer of the Company.
The foregoing description of the amendment to the Company’s By-Laws is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amended and Restated By-Laws, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
