The Shareholder Notice, contained in Section 11(a) of Article II of the Bylaws, generally prescribes the procedures that a stockholder of the Company must follow if the stockholder intends (i) to nominate a person for election to the Company’s Board of Directors at an annual meeting, or (ii) to propose other business to be considered by the stockholders at an annual meeting of stockholders. These procedures include, among other things, that the stockholder give timely notice to the Secretary of the Company of the nomination or other proposed business, that the notice contain specified information, and that the stockholder (and any Proposed Nominee) comply with certain other requirements.
In accordance with the Bylaws relating to the first Annual Meeting, notice by the stockholder must be received by the Secretary at the registered office of the Company not earlier than the 150th day prior to June 9, 2016 and not later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the later of the 120th day prior to June 9, 2016, or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. Accordingly, in order for a stockholder nomination or proposal to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, the stockholder must deliver a notice of such nomination or proposal to the Company’s Secretary on or before 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time on Monday, May 16, 2016, and comply with the requirements of the Bylaws.
Notices should be directed to our Secretary, Gregory J. Cannella, 4422 Route 27, Building C, Suite 1, Box 89, Kingston, New Jersey 08528-0089, and should comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8.
