Item 3.03
Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
Resolute Energy Corporation (the "Company") held its Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2018 Annual Meeting") on June 19, 2018, the results of which are set forth in Item 5.07 below.
Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Amended and Restated Charter") approved by the Company's stockholders at the 2018 Annual Meeting, the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation was amended and restated to provide for declassification of the board of directors (the "Board"), among other things. In accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Charter, the current classified Board will be declassified over a two-year period, as follows:
•
Class I Directors will serve out their current terms expiring at our 2019 annual meeting, and they, or any successors, will stand for election to a one-year term at our 2019 annual meeting;
•
Class II Directors will serve out their current terms expiring at our 2020 annual meeting, and they, or any successors, will stand for election to a one-year term at our 2020 annual meeting; and
•
Class III Directors elected at the 2018 Annual Meeting will serve out a one-year term, and they, or any successors, will stand for election to a one-year term at our 2019 annual meeting.
Beginning with the 2020 annual meeting, all directors will be elected for a one-year term expiring at the next annual meeting of stockholders.
Delaware law provides that directors serving on boards that are not classified may be removed by stockholders with or without cause, while directors serving on boards that are classified may only be removed by stockholders for cause. To conform to Delaware law, the Amended and Restated Charter provides that upon the full declassification of the Board as of the 2020 annual meeting, all directors would be removable "for cause" upon the affirmative vote of a majority of stockholders or "without cause" upon the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of stockholders. Before that time, directors serving in a class elected for a three-year term at the 2016 annual meeting or the 2017 annual meeting may be removed only for cause. Directors elected for a one-year term at each annual meeting of stockholders from 2018 through 2019 may be removed with or without cause.
The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated Charter is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Amended and Restated Charter, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
