     As previously reported on the Company’s Form 8-K, at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders the stockholders of Nash Finch approved amendments to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to declassify the Nash Finch Board so that each member of the Board will be elected annually. As a result, the Board nominated, and the Company’s stockholders elected at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders the following seven directors: Robert L. Bagby, Alec C. Covington, Sam K. Duncan, Mickey P. Foret, Douglas A. Hacker, U.S. Army Major General (Ret.) Hawthorne L. Proctor and William R. Voss to serve one-year terms expiring at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or until his successor shall have been elected and qualified.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

     As previously reported on the Company’s Form 8-K, the Board authorized amendments to Article III, Section I of the Company’s Bylaws relating to (1) the declassification of the Board and (2) the number of directors. Such amendments became effective upon stockholder approval of corresponding amendments to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

STOCKHOLDERS AND STOCKHOLDERS MEETINGS

1. The annual meeting of the stockholders of this Company for the election of directors and the transaction of such other business as may properly be brought before such meeting shall be held at such date, time and place, either within or outside the State of Delaware, as may be designated by resolution of the Board of Directors from time to time and stated in the notice of the meeting.

If, however, such majority shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until the requisite amount of voting stock shall be present. At such adjourned meeting at which the requisite amount of voting stock shall be represented any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified. Any question coming before a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be decided by a majority vote of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, then present in person or represented by proxy, unless the question is one upon which by express provision of the statutes or of the certificate of incorporation, a different vote is

1

required in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question.

3. At any meeting of the stockholders each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote in person or by written proxy for each share of the capital stock having voting power held by such stockholder.

4. Written or printed notice of an annual meeting stating the place, date and hour of the meeting shall be given to each stockholder entitled to vote thereat at such address as appears on the stock ledger of the Company not less than 20 days nor more than 60 days before the date of meeting.

Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the county where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified in the notice of the meeting, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present.

6. Special meetings of the stockholders, for any purpose or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by statute or by the certificate of incorporation, may be called at any time only by the Board Chair or the President or by an affirmative vote of two-thirds (2/3) of the full Board of Directors at any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors called for that purpose.

expiration of the terms for which they were elected and qualified; provided, however, that a director may be removed from office at any time but only (i) for cause, and (ii) then upon the affirmative vote of the holders of three-fourths (3/4) of all outstanding shares entitled to vote.

2. If the office of any director or directors becomes vacant by reason of death, resignation, or retirement, disqualification, removal from office, increase in the number of directors, or otherwise, a majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum, at a meeting called for that purpose, may choose a successor or successors, or a new director or directors in the event of an increase in the number of directors, who shall hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until a successor shall be elected and shall qualify.

3. In addition to the powers and authorities by these bylaws expressly conferred upon it, the Board of Directors may exercise all such powers of the Company and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or by the certificate of incorporation or by these bylaws directed or required to be exercised or done by the stockholders.

The Board Chair shall preside at all meetings of the stockholders and Board of Directors and otherwise shall have such duties and responsibilities as may be assigned from time to time by the Board of Directors. During the absence or disability of the Board Chair, the Board of Directors shall designate another director to discharge the duties of the Board Chair.

No notice of such meeting shall be necessary to the newly elected directors in order legally to constitute the meeting; provided, however, that a majority of the whole Board shall be present.

2. Meetings of the Board of Directors other than the annual meeting, may be called at any time by the Board Chair, Chief Executive Officer, President or Secretary, or in their absence by

3

the Executive Vice President, or by any Vice President or on the written request of any three directors; on one day’s notice to each director, either personally or by mail or by telegram.

4. Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, any actions required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors, or of any committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the Board or the committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board or the committee.

5. Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation, the Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation of directors.

4

their respective rights of indemnification under any by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders, provisions or law or otherwise, as well as their rights under this Article.
