Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On February 9, 2010, the Board of Directors of Palomar Medical Technologies, Inc. (the Company)
approved the Second Amended and Restated By-laws of the Company (the By-laws), which amends and
restates the Amended and Restated By-laws of the Company (the Previous By-laws) in their entirety.
The By-laws amend the Previous By-laws to, among other things:
|
o
|
|
provide that special meetings of stockholders may be called by the Board of Directors of
the Company (the Board), the Chairman of the Board or the Chief Executive
Officer. The Previous By-laws permitted only the Board to call special meetings of
stockholders;
|
o
|
|
provide that stockholders shall have a proportionate vote for each fractional share of
stock, if any, entitled to vote held of record by a stockholder;
|
o
|
|
establish separate procedures relating to the nomination of directors by stockholders and
the presentation of stockholder proposals (other than the nomination of directors) at
stockholders meetings. In addition to requiring additional information in an advance
notice that a stockholder must give to the Company to nominate directors or properly bring
business (other than the nomination of directors) before an annual meeting of
stockholders, the By-laws now provide that for any such notice to be timely, it must be
received by the Company not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first
anniversary of the preceding years annual meeting. In the event that the date of the
annual meeting is advanced by more than 20 days, or delayed by more than 60 days, from
such anniversary date, such notice must be received not earlier than the 120
th
day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of
(i) the 90
th
day prior to such annual meeting and (ii) the 10
th
day
following the day on which notice of the date of such annual meeting was mailed or public
disclosure of the date of such annual meeting was made, whichever first occurs. The
Previous By-laws provided that to be timely, such notice from a stockholder must be
delivered to the Company not later than the close of business on the 90
th
day
nor earlier than the close of business on the 120
th
day prior to the first
anniversary of the preceding years annual meeting, provided the event that the date
of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such
anniversary date, such notice must be delivered not earlier than the close of business on
the 120
th
day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of
business on the later of the 90
th
day prior to such annual meeting or the
10
th
day following the date on which public announcement of the date of such
meeting is first made;
|
o
|
|
provide that the Board may fix a record date in order for the Company to determine the
stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, and the
procedures relating to establishing such record date;
|
o
|
|
provide that the greater of (i) a majority of the directors at any time in office and (ii)
one third of the number of directors established by the Board shall constitute a quorum of
the Board. The Previous By-laws provided that a majority of the directors then in office
constitutes a quorum of the Board;
|
o
|
|
provide that vacancies on the Board cannot be filled by stockholders. The Previous By-laws
permitted stockholders to fill vacancies on the Board at any stockholder meeting in the
event that a vacancy was not filled by the Board;
|
o
|
|
not allow directors to be removed for cause by a vote of a majority of the directors then
in office, as was permitted by the Previous By-laws;
|
o
|
|
not authorize the Chief Executive Officer to appoint certain officers, as was permitted by the Previous
By-laws;
|
o
|
|
enhance the benefits of indemnification arrangements for directors and officers, including
providing that in any suit brought by a director or officer to enforce a right to
indemnification, or brought by the Company to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant
to the terms of an undertaking, the Company shall have the burden of proving that such
director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses;
|
o
|
|
permit the Board to provide that some or all of any or all classes or series of the Company's
stock can be uncertificated shares; and
|
o
|
|
allow stockholders to adopt new bylaws, which was not permitted by the Previous By-laws.
|
The
foregoing description of the By-laws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
By-laws, filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by
