At our annual meeting of stockholders held on December 19, 2018, following the recommendation of our board of directors, our stockholders approved the amendments to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) described below. On January 8, 2019, we filed the Certificates of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (each a “Certificate of Amendment” and, together, the “Certificates of Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and the amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation became effective. The amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation are as follows:
We filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 105,000,000 shares to 1,100,000,000 shares and to increase our total authorized shares of capital stock from 120,005,000 shares to 1,115,005,000 shares.
We filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to permit stockholder action by written consent. The Certificate of Incorporation did not previously permit stockholder action by written consent.
We filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to permit a majority of our stockholders to request that we call a special meeting of stockholders. The Certificate of Incorporation did not previously permit stockholders to request that we call a special meeting of stockholders, and only permitted the chairman of our board of directors or the board of directors to call a special meeting of stockholders.
We filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to permit a majority of our stockholders to remove directors with or without cause. The Certificate of Incorporation previously provided that directors may only be removed for cause and by a vote of stockholders holding at least 66 2/3% of our common stock.
We filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to permit a majority of our stockholders to amend or repeal our Certificate of Incorporation or any provision thereof. The Certificate of Incorporation previously provided that certain provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation could only be amended or repealed with the affirmative vote of stockholders holding 80% of our common stock, unless such amendment or repeal was declared advisable by our board of directors by the affirmative vote of at least 75% of the entire board of directors, notwithstanding the fact that a lesser percentage may be specified by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
We filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to permit a majority of our stockholders to amend or repeal our Second Amended and Restated Bylaws or any provision thereof. The Certificate of Incorporation previously provided that the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws could only be amended or repealed with the affirmative vote of the stockholders holding 66 2/3% of our common stock.
We filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to designate the courts in the state of Delaware as the exclusive forum for all legal actions unless otherwise consented to by us. The Certificate of Incorporation did not previously have a provision regarding forum selection.
We filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to expressly opt-out of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. The Certificate of Incorporation did not previously opt-out of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Section 203 is an anti-takeover provision that generally prohibits a person or entity who acquires 15% or more in voting power from engaging in certain transactions with a corporation for a period of three years following the date such person or entity acquired the 15% or more in voting power.
We filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to renounce any interest or expectancy we may have in, or being offered an opportunity to participate in, any business opportunity that is presented to Elliott Management Corporation, or funds affiliated with Elliott Management Corporation, or any of its or their directors, officers, stockholders, or employees. The Certificate of Incorporation did not previously renounce our interest or expectancy in, or being offered an opportunity to participate in, any business opportunity.
The foregoing descriptions of the Certificates of Amendment are only summaries and do not purport to be complete, and such descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended by the Certificates of Amendment, a complete copy of which is filed hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and are incorporated herein by reference.
