Item  5.03  Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
On December 16, 2016, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Papa Murphy's Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") approved and adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company as set forth in Exhibit 3.1 (the "Restated Bylaws"), which became effective immediately upon the Board's approval. The Restated Bylaws, among other things:
•
Require an incumbent director (other than an incumbent director designated by LEP Papa Murphy's Holdings, LLC or its permitted transferees) to tender his or her resignation upon his or her failure to receive a majority of the votes cast in an uncontested election of directors, subject to the Board's right to reject such resignation.
•
Clarify the Board's authority to cancel, postpone or reschedule a meeting of stockholders.
•
Clarify that Board nominations and proposals of other business to be considered at an annual meeting may be made only by stockholders who are stockholders at the time of the annual meeting.
•
Provide for additional disclosure requirements for notices of director nominations and stockholder proposals, including a requirement that stockholders update and supplement such notices.
•
Supplement the certification and disclosure requirements for any individual who has been proposed by a stockholder as a nominee for election to the Board, including affirmations required to be made by those individuals.
•
Clarify that the chairman of a stockholder meeting has the power to recess a stockholder meeting and adopt restrictions on the use of audio or video recording devices at stockholder meetings.
•
Remove the requirement that officers be elected annually and instead enable the Board to choose officers at any time to serve for such terms as the Board may determine.
The foregoing summary of the Restated Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Restated Bylaws. The Restated Bylaws are attached as Exhibit 3.1, which is incorporated herein by reference.
