Item 5.02    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
MYR Group, Inc.’s (“MYR” or the “Company”) Corporate Governance Principles provide that directors are expected to tender their resignations immediately after the first annual meeting of stockholders following their 72nd birthday. In accordance with this policy, on April 20, 2023, Maurice E. Moore notified the Company of his decision to retire as a member of the board of directors (the “Board”), effective as of April 21, 2023. Mr. Moore served as a director since 2010 and as Chair of the Audit Committee. Mr. Moore’s retirement is not the result of any disagreement with the Company or the Board, and management expressed sincere appreciation for his 13 years of dutiful service. Mr. Moore was a Class II director. Following the resignations of Mr. Moore the Board approved a reduction in the size of the Board from nine directors to eight directors and a reduction in the size of Board Class II from three directors to two directors, effective April 21, 2023.
Item 5.03    Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
    The Company held its 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on April 20, 2023 (the “Annual Meeting”). At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the amendment of Article FIFTH of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to declassify the Board (the “Charter Amendment”). Pursuant to the Charter Amendment, the declassification of the Board will be phased in over the next three years, as described in MYR’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 6, 2023 (the “2023 Proxy Statement”).
In connection with the Charter Amendment, the Board approved conforming amendments to the Company’s By-Laws (the “By-Law Amendments”) to effect a phased-in declassification of the Board over the next three years, which amendments were contingent upon stockholder approval and implementation of the Charter Amendment. On April 20, 2023 (the “Effective Date”), the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware implementing the Charter Amendment. Consequently, the By-Law Amendments were also implemented on the Effective Date.
The foregoing descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete texts of the Certificate of Amendment and the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.07    Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
At the Annual Meeting on April 20, 2023, the Company’s stockholders considered five proposals, each of which is described in more detail in the 2023 Proxy Statement. The matters voted upon at the Annual Meeting and the results of the votes were as follows:
Proposal 1. Election of Three Class I Director Nominees for Three-Year Terms. The stockholders elected three Class I director nominees, Kenneth M. Hartwick, Jennifer E. Lowry, and Richard S.
