Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On November 26, 2019, in connection with its periodic review of corporate governance matters, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of Olympic Steel, Inc. (the “Company”), based on the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board (the “Governance Committee”), adopted amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Code of Regulations (as so amended, the “Regulations”), effective immediately.
As amended, the Regulations now include an advance notice provision with respect to shareholder proposals of business as a complement to the advance notice provision with respect to the nomination of directors. Additionally, the amendments provide enhanced procedural and disclosure requirements for shareholder proposals of business and the nomination of directors, which are designed to foster greater transparency and a more orderly shareholder meeting process and, among other things, expand the information that shareholder proponents and others (each, a “Proposing Person”) must disclose to the Company, such as information regarding a Proposing Person’s direct and indirect ownership interests in the Company’s securities.
The foregoing description of the amendments to the Regulations, is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Regulations, as amended, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
Also on November 26, 2019, the Board, based on the recommendation of the Governance Committee, (a) authorized management to present a proposal at the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of shareholders to approve an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation that would allow the Company to implement majority voting in the election of directors and (b) adopted, effective immediately, a Policy of the Board of Directors Relating to Majority Voting (the “Majority Voting Policy”).
Pursuant to the Majority Voting Policy, in an uncontested election of directors, any nominee for director who receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election than votes “for” election is expected to tender his or her resignation following certification of the shareholder vote. In such an event, the Governance Committee will consider the tendered resignation and make a recommendation to the Board. The Board will act on the Governance Committee’s recommendation within 90 days following certification of the shareholder vote.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
