Item 8.01 Other Events. | |
On January 24, 2020, the Board of Directors of Knowles Corporation (the "Company") determined that its 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2020 Annual Meeting") will be held on April 28, 2020 at a time and location to be set forth in the Company's related proxy materials. The record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive notice of and vote at the 2020 Annual Meeting shall be the close of business on March 2, 2020. The date of the 2020 Annual Meeting differs by more than thirty (30) days from the anniversary date of the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, which was held on May 31, 2019. As a result, pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Company has set a new deadline for receipt of any stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act. The Company has set such deadline as the close of business on February 3, 2020, which the Company has determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and send its proxy materials, and is also the time by which notice of proposals must be received pursuant to the Company's Second Amended and Restated Bylaws. Stockholder proposals and other items of business should be submitted in writing to the Corporate Secretary, Knowles Corporation, 1151 Maplewood Drive, Itasca, Illinois 60143. All such proposals must be in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and the Company's Second Amended and Restated Bylaws in order to be considered for inclusion in the proxy materials for the 2020 Annual Meeting or to be considered at the 2020 Annual Meeting. |
