TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
(a) On October 20, 2009, the Board of Directors of Pinnacle Financial Partners Inc. (the
“Company”) approved an amendment to the Bylaws of the Company to provide that the term of a
director elected to fill a vacancy created by the resignation or removal of a director or the
increase in the size of the board shall continue until the next shareholders’ meeting at which
directors are elected. Previously the Bylaws of the Company provided that the term of a director
elected to fill a vacancy would continue until the expiration of the term of the director whose place
had become vacant, or in the case of an increase in the number of
directors, until the next meeting of the Company’s shareholders.
A copy of the Bylaws of the Company, as amended, is filed with this Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.2.
