Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On April 28, 2021, the shareholders of Glacier Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), approved an amendment (the "Articles Amendment") to the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles") to provide for indemnification of directors and officers of the Company to the fullest extent authorized or permitted under the Montana Business Corporation Act (the "MBCA"). At a meeting held on April 28, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") also approved an amendment (the "Bylaws Amendment") to the Company's Bylaws (the "Bylaws") intended to coordinate the indemnification provisions of the Articles, as amended, with similar provisions of the Bylaws.
The Articles Amendment provides for indemnification of directors and officers in the Articles, which was previously addressed in the Bylaws. The MBCA was amended effective June 1, 2020, to permit broader indemnification of a corporation's directors than had been authorized under the statutory provisions previously in effect, provided that the corporation's articles of incorporation include such authority. The Articles Amendment adds the indemnification provision to the Articles, and as a result, directors will be entitled to indemnification to the fullest extent now permitted by Montana law. The Bylaws Amendment coordinates the indemnification provisions of Article VI of the Bylaws with those in the Articles, as amended.
In addition to coordination of the indemnification provisions in the Articles and the Bylaws, the Bylaws Amendment also provides that the Company may, but is not obligated to, indemnify any employee or agent of the Company, and advance the reasonable expenses of such persons, if authorized by the Board.
The Articles Amendment was filed with the Montana Secretary of State on April 30, 2021.
A copy of the Amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation is included as Exhibit 3.1 to this current report on Form 8-K, and a copy of the Amended and Restated Bylaws is included as Exhibit 3.2 to this current report on Form 8-K, and each is incorporated by reference.
