Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
Effective on February 11, 2008, the Board of Directors of Health Fitness Corporation (the “Company”) has approved amendments to Sections 5.02, 5.04, 5.05 and 5.08 of the Company’s Restated Bylaws (the “Restated Bylaws”). The amendments allow for the issuance and transfer of uncertificated shares and thereby enable the Company to comply with direct registration program rules. A direct registration program allows for book-entry ownership of stock or other securities. Shares are owned, recorded and transferred electronically without issuance of physical stock certificates, which enables investors and broker-dealers to effect transactions without the risks and delays associated with transferring physical certificates. Because the Restated Bylaws previously provided that each shareholder was entitled to a physical stock certificate, the Company’s Board of Directors determined that, in order to confirm compliance with direct registration program rules, it was appropriate to amend the Restated Bylaws to provide the Company the authority to issue uncertificated shares and set forth the procedure by which shareholders may transfer uncertificated shares.
Consequently, Section 5.02 of the Restated Bylaws has been amended to provide that shares of the Company may be certificated, uncertificated or a combination thereof. Section 5.04 of the Restated Bylaws has been amended to add the ability of the Company to issue uncertificated shares, in addition to certificated shares, in the event of the replacement of lost, destroyed, mislaid or stolen certificates. Section 5.05 of the Restated Bylaws has been amended to provide that transfer of shares shall occur upon authorization of the registered holder of the shares and, in the case of uncertificated shares, compliance with such procedures as the Company or its transfer agent may require. The Restated Bylaws continue to provide that transfer of certificated shares shall only occur upon surrender of the certificate duly endorsed. Section 5.08 of the Restated Bylaws has been amended to add that option agreements among shareholders involving uncertificated shares shall be referenced in the stock records of the Company and its transfer agent.
The above summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment of the Restated Bylaws, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The full text of the Amendment to the Restated Bylaws is incorporated herein by reference.
