The amended By-Laws (i) explicitly provide that the Bylaws apply to all shareowner nominations and proposals of business and are the exclusive means for a shareowner to submit such business, other than proposals governed by Rule 14a-8 of the federal proxy rules (which provides its own procedural requirements) and Rule 14a-11 (if such Rule 14a-11 becomes effective), and (ii) expand the required disclosure regarding the shareowners making such proposals or nominations to include, among other things, all ownership interests, hedges, economic incentives (including derivative or temporary stock ownership) and rights to vote any shares of any security of the Company.
