Item 8.01. |
Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal
Year
|
On December 13, 2022, in connection with the new U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission rules regarding universal proxy
cards and a periodic review of the bylaws of CoreCivic, Inc., a
Maryland corporation (the “Company”), the Board of Directors (the
“Board”) of the Company approved and adopted the Tenth Amended and
Restated Bylaws (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”), effective
December 13, 2022. Among other things, the amendments effected
by the Amended and Restated Bylaws:
|
• |
|
Enhance procedural mechanics and disclosure requirements in
connection with stockholder proposals of business and nominations
of directors made in connection with annual and special meetings of
stockholders by, including, without limitation:
|
|
• |
|
Requiring that the stockholder proponent must provide certain
additional information to the Company (i) regarding the
business to be proposed by the proponent, including providing
disclosure regarding the text of any resolutions intended to be
presented at the meeting and any agreement between such proponent
and other persons with respect to the business being proposed; and
(ii) regarding such proponent (including associated persons)
in connection with the proposal, including requiring the proponent
to provide the same type of information that would be required if
the proponent were making a director nomination as referenced
below.
|
|
• |
|
Requiring that the stockholder proponent must provide certain
additional information to the Company regarding such proponent
(including associated persons) in connection with such nomination,
including providing disclosure regarding all direct or indirect
economic interests held by the proponent in the securities of the
Company (including derivative instruments), a representation
whether the proponent (or qualified representative) intends to
appear at the meeting to propose the nomination, and any additional
information regarding the proponent as may be reasonably requested
by the Company.
|
|
• |
|
Requiring that the stockholder proponent must provide certain
additional information to the Company regarding the nominee in
connection with such nomination, including providing disclosure
regarding all information with respect to the nominee that would be
required if the nominee were a stockholder proposing a nomination,
any direct or indirect compensation and other material involving
the nominee (including associated persons) and the proponent
regarding the nomination, and any additional information regarding
the nominee as may reasonably be requested by the Company.
|
|
• |
|
Requiring a stockholder who gave notice of any nomination to be
brought before a meeting of stockholders to update and supplement
such notice, if necessary, to ensure the information required by
the advance notice bylaws remains accurate, and to require that any
additional information requested by the Company pursuant to the
advance notice bylaws must be delivered not later than five
business days after any such request has been delivered.
|
|
• |
|
Adding a requirement that any stockholder submitting a nomination
notice make a representation as to whether such stockholder intends
to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the
Company’s nominees in accordance with Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
|
|
• |
|
Clarifying that, unless required by applicable law, if, after such
stockholder provides notice pursuant to Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act and
subsequently fails either to comply with the requirements of Rule
14a-19(a)(2) or
(3) under the Exchange Act or to provide documentation
reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such stockholder has
met the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(3) promulgated under the
Exchange Act (upon request by the Company), then such nomination
will be disregarded and no vote on such nominee proposed by such
stockholder will occur.
|
|
• |
|
Providing that the number of nominees proposed by stockholders
submitting a nomination notice may not exceed the number of
directors to be elected at the relevant meeting of
stockholders.
|
|
• |
|
Requiring a stockholder directly or indirectly soliciting proxies
from other stockholders use a proxy card color other than
white.
|
|
• |
|
Include a severability provision.
|
|
• |
|
Make various other updates, including clarifying, technical,
ministerial and conforming changes.
|

Restated Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the
