Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 30, 2015, Edgewell Personal Care Company (formerly Energizer Holdings, Inc.) (the “Company”) and Energizer Holdings, Inc. (formerly Energizer SpinCo, Inc.) (“New Energizer”) entered into that certain Contribution Agreement described in more detail in Item 2.01 below (the “Contribution Agreement”), which description is incorporated by reference herein and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Contribution Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 2.01 Completion of the Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

Effective as of 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on July 1, 2015, the Company completed the previously announced spin-off of its Household Products business to the Company’s shareholders (the “Spin-Off”).

On June 30, 2015, pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement dated June 25, 2015 by and between the Company and New Energizer (the “Separation Agreement”) and the Contribution Agreement:

 

    The Company completed an internal reorganization, which we refer to as the “internal reorganization,” in connection with which New Energizer became the parent company of those Company operations comprising, and the entities that will conduct, the Household Products business; and

 

    In the final step of the internal reorganization and pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, New Energizer transferred approximately $1 billion to the Company in connection with the Company’s contribution of certain assets to New Energizer immediately prior to the completion of the Spin-Off.

The description of the Separation Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Separation Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 29, 2015 and which description is incorporated by reference herein.

Consummation of the Spin-Off was subject to customary closing conditions that were satisfied prior to the Spin-Off, including, among other things, the completion of the internal reorganization, the receipt of an opinion of tax counsel, the completion of related financing transactions, and the other conditions summarized in the Separation Agreement.

The Company completed the Spin-Off by distributing 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock of New Energizer to the Company’s shareholders. As a result of the distribution, New Energizer has separated from the Company and its common stock began regular-way trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “ENR” on July 1, 2015. The Company distributed a total of 62,193,281 shares of New Energizer common stock to the Company’s shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 16, 2015, the record date for the distribution, with one share of New Energizer common stock distributed for each share of Company common stock outstanding. Following the Spin-Off, the Company does not beneficially own any shares of common stock of New Energizer.

 

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

In connection with the consummation of the Spin-Off and as previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 28, 2015, each of Bill G. Armstrong, John E. Klein, W. Patrick McGinnis, J. Patrick Mulcahy and John R. Roberts resigned as a director of the Company to join the board of directors of New Energizer and each of David P. Hatfield, Rakesh Sachdev, and Carla C. Hendra has joined the Company’s Board of Directors, all effective July 1, 2015.


Following the Spin-Off, the Board of Directors of the Company consists of Ward M. Klein, David P. Hatfield, Daniel J. Heinrich, Carla C. Hendra, R. David Hoover, John C. Hunter, James C. Johnson and Rakesh Sachdev. Mr. Klein has been appointed Executive Chairman of the Board, Mr. Hoover has been appointed Lead Independent Director, and the composition of the Audit Committee, Nominating and Executive Compensation Committee and Finance and Oversight Committee were reconstituted as follows:

LaVigne, Brandon P. Davis and Brian K. Hamm resigned as officers of the Company to join New Energizer and Daniel J. Sescleifer retired as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, in each case effective July 1, 2015. The Company appointed Ward M. Klein as Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors, David P. Hatfield as President and Chief Executive Officer, Sandra J. Sheldon as Chief Financial Officer and Elizabeth E. Dreyer as Vice President, Controller and Chief Accounting Officer, in each case effective July 1, 2015.

 

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

Effective June 30, 2015, the Company changed its name from Energizer Holdings, Inc. to Edgewell Personal Care Company in connection with the Spin-Off.

The name change was effected through a short-form merger pursuant to Section 351.447 of The General and Business Corporation Law of Missouri (the “MGBCL”) by merging a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving corporation in the merger. Under the MGBCL, the merger did not require shareholder approval and had the effect of amending the Company’s articles of incorporation to reflect the new legal name of the Company. The Company also amended its bylaws, effective as of the same date, to reflect the name change.

A copy of the Articles of Merger effecting the name change is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated by reference herein. A copy of the bylaws of the Company, as amended and restated, is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 and is incorporated by reference herein.

The Company’s common stock began regular-way trading on the NYSE under the symbol “EPC” with the CUSIP No. 28035Q 102 on July 1, 2015.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On July 1, 2015, the Company issued a press release announcing the completion of the Spin-Off. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

In connection with the name change described above under Item 5.03, the Company launched a new corporate website: www.edgewell.com. The Company’s investor relations information, including press releases and links to the Company’s SEC filings, will now be found on this website. The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to these reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Company’s corporate governance documents, including the charters of the committees of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Corporate Governance Principles, and the Company’s Codes of Conduct, are available on this website.

WHEREAS, EPC and EHP have entered into the Separation and Distribution Agreement, which provides for, among other things: (a) the Internal Reorganization, which includes the transfer by EPC of the EHP Assets and the EHP Liabilities to EHP in actual or constructive exchange for (i) the issuance by EHP to EPC of shares of EHP Common Stock and (ii) the distribution by EHP to EPC of the EHP Cash Distribution (the “ Contribution ”); (b) the distribution by EPC of EHP Common Stock to EPC shareholders (the “ Distribution ”); and (c) the execution and delivery of certain agreements in order to facilitate and provide for the foregoing, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein;

WHEREAS, in order to complete and effectuate the Contribution, the parties desire to enter into this Agreement;

WHEREAS, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Contribution and the Distribution, taken together, are intended to qualify as a transaction that is generally tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Section 355 and Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code, and this Agreement is intended to be, and is hereby adopted as, a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g);

WHEREAS, this Agreement shall constitute an “Internal Reorganization Document” and an “Ancillary Agreement” for purposes of the Separation and Distribution Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the parties intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be effective on the Effective Date as of the Effective Time.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

Section 1 Contribution; Assumption of Liabilities .

(a) Effective as of 7:00 a.m., local time in New York, New York, on the Effective Date (the “ Effective Time ”), EPC hereby contributes, assigns, transfers, conveys and delivers to EHP, and EHP hereby accepts, all of EPC’s rights, title and interest in and to all of following Assets, as they exist as of the Effective Time (collectively, the “ Contributed Assets ”):

(i) 1,100 shares of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Energizer Investment Company, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of EPC (“ EIC ”), constituting all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of EIC (the “ EIC Shares ”);

(iii) all other Assets of EPC that constitute EHP Assets.

(c) Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Separation and Distribution Agreement, effective as of the Effective Time, in exchange for the contribution described in Section 1(a) , EHP hereby assumes the EHP Liabilities of EPC with effect as of the Effective Time and agrees to pay, perform, satisfy and discharge such EHP Liabilities in accordance with their respective terms.

Section 2 Deliveries .

In furtherance of the transactions contemplated by Section 1 , subject to the terms of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the parties agree to execute and deliver, and they will cause their respective Subsidiaries to execute and deliver (a) such stock powers, assignments of contracts, and other instruments of transfer, conveyance and assignment as, and to the extent, necessary or convenient to evidence the transfer, conveyance and assignment by EPC to EHP of all of EPC’s right, title and interest in and to the Contributed Assets, and to complete and evidence the Cash Payment and the Stock Issuance, and (b) such assumptions of contracts and other instruments of assumption as, and to the extent, necessary or convenient to evidence the valid and effective assumption of the Assumed Liabilities.

It is the parties’ intent that all of the benefits and burdens of ownership of the EIC Shares transfer to EHP at the Effective Time. To the extent that transfer of registered ownership of the EIC Shares is not perfected at the Effective Time or would be contrary to applicable Law, the parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts to provide to, or cause to be provided to, EHP, to the extent permitted by law, the rights and benefits associated with registered ownership of the EIC Shares and take such other actions as may reasonably be requested by EHP in order to place

(b) In connection with the arrangement set forth in Section 3(a) , and without limiting the foregoing, from and after the Effective Time, to the extent that transfer of registered ownership of the EIC Shares is not perfected at the Effective Time or would be contrary to applicable Law, EPC will (i) vote the EIC Shares at the meetings of EIC only as directed by EHP, (ii) observe all corporate formalities and filing requirements that may have to be met with regard to the EIC Shares, (iii) forward to EHP, or any other person identified by EHP, all dividends, distributions (liquidating or otherwise), and sale proceeds made with respect to the EHP, (iv) sell, transfer or encumber the EIC Shares only as directed by EHP, (v) immediately notify EHP upon attachment or attempted seizure of, or acquisition of any interest or assertion of any rights in, EIC Shares by any third party and take appropriate action to defend against such attachment and to protect EHP’s interest in the EIC Shares, and (vi) be entitled to rely on the written instructions of the directors or officers of EHP, and such instructions will be deemed to have been duly authorized by EHP.

Section 4 Consents; Further Assurances .

(a) In addition to the actions specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement and the Separation and Distribution Agreement, each of the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts, prior to and after the Effective Time, to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws and agreements to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that neither party shall be obligated under this Section 3 to pay any consideration, grant any concession or incur any additional Liability to any Third Party other than ordinary and customary fees paid to a Governmental Authority.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, prior to and after the Effective Time, each party shall cooperate with the other party, without any further consideration, but at the expense of the requesting party, (i) to execute and deliver, or use reasonable best efforts to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all instruments, including any instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer as such party may reasonably be requested to execute and deliver by the other party, (ii) to make, or cause to be made, all filings with, and to obtain, or cause to be obtained, all Consents of any Governmental Authority or any other Person under any permit, license, agreement, indenture or other instrument, (iii) to obtain, or cause to be obtained, any Governmental Approvals or other Consents required to effect the transactions contemplated hereby, (iv) to make, or cause to be made, all filings with a Governmental Authority necessary to ensure the assignment, transfer or other modification of Government Approvals as may be required pursuant to any Environmental Law; and (v) to take, or cause to be taken, all such other

 

3


actions as such Party may reasonably be requested to take by the other Party from time to time, in each case consistent with the terms of this Agreement, in order to effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the transfers of the Contributed Assets and assignments and assumptions of Assumed Liabilities, the Cash Payment and the Stock Issuance as contemplated by this Agreement and the other transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) Promptly following the Effective Time, EHP shall, and shall cause EIC to, amend and restate the Note in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A .

Section 5 Miscellaneous .

(a) Disclaimer . Except as expressly provided in the Separation and Distribution Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, (i) none of the parties is making any representation to any other party in connection with the Contribution, the Cash Payment or the Stock Issuance and (ii) EHP is not directly assuming any Liabilities of EIC or its subsidiaries under the Contribution.

(b) Separation Agreement; Entire Agreement .

Each party acknowledges that it and the other party may execute this Agreement by manual, stamp or mechanical signature, and that delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement (whether executed by manual, stamp or mechanical signature) by facsimile or by email in portable document format (PDF) shall be effective as delivery of such executed counterpart of this Agreement. Each party expressly adopts and confirms a stamp or mechanical signature (regardless of whether delivered in person, by mail, by courier, by facsimile or by email in portable document format (PDF)) made in its respective name as if it were a manual signature delivered in person, agrees that it shall not assert that any such signature or delivery is not adequate to bind it to the same extent as if it were signed manually and delivered in person and agrees that, at the reasonable request of the other party at any time, it shall as promptly as reasonably practicable cause this Agreement to be manually executed (any such execution to be as of the date of the initial date hereof) and delivered in person, by mail or by courier.

(e) Notices . All notices shall be in writing and shall be given or made in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.05 of the Separation and Distribution Agreement.

Exhibit 3.2

AMENDED BYLAWS

OF

EDGEWELL PERSONAL CARE COMPANY

Dated as of July 1, 2015

ARTICLE I - SHAREHOLDERS

SECTION 1 ANNUAL MEETING: The annual meeting of shareholders shall be held at the principal office of the Company, or at such other place either within or without the State of Missouri as the Directors may from time to time determine, at 2:00 P.M. on the fourth Monday in January in each year, or such other time as may be determined by the Chairman of the Board, or if such day be a legal holiday then on the next succeeding business day, to elect Directors and transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting.

SECTION 2 SPECIAL MEETINGS: Special meetings of shareholders may be called only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the entire Board of Directors or by the Chairman of the Board or the President by request for such a meeting in writing. Such request shall be delivered to the Secretary of the Company and shall state the purpose or purposes of the proposed meeting. Upon such direction or request, subject to any requirements or limitations imposed by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, by these Bylaws, or by law, it shall be the duty of the Secretary to call a special meeting of the shareholders to be held at such time as is specified in the request. Only such business shall be conducted, and only such proposals shall be acted upon, as are specified in the call of any special meeting of shareholders, and each such meeting shall be held at such time, and at such place either within or without the State of Missouri, as may be specified in the notice thereof. As used in these Bylaws, the terms “entire Board of Directors” means the total number of Directors fixed by, or in accordance with, these Bylaws.

SECTION 3 NOTICE.

(a) Except as otherwise required by the laws of Missouri, notice of each meeting of the shareholders, whether annual or special, shall be given, except that (i) it shall not be necessary to give notice to any shareholder who properly waives notice before or after the meeting, whether in writing or by electronic transmission or otherwise, and (ii) no notice of an adjourned meeting need be given except when required under these Bylaws or by law. Such notice shall state the date, time and place, if any, of the meeting (and the means of remote communications, if any, by which shareholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person at such meeting), and in the case of a special meeting, shall also state the purpose or purposes thereof. Except as otherwise required by law, each notice of a meeting shall be given in any manner permitted by law not less than 10 nor more than 70 days before the meeting and shall state the time and place of the meeting, and unless it is the annual meeting, shall state at whose direction or request the meeting is called and the purposes for which it is called. The attendance of any shareholder at a meeting, without protesting at the beginning of the meeting that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened, shall constitute a waiver of notice by such shareholder; and the requirement of notice may also be waived in accordance with Section 4(b) of Article 5 of these Bylaws. Any previously scheduled meeting of shareholders may be


postponed, and (unless the Articles of Incorporation otherwise provide) any special meeting of shareholders may be canceled or postponed, by resolution of the Board of Directors upon public notice (as defined in Section 6 of Article I of these Bylaws) given on or prior to the date previously scheduled for such meeting of shareholders.

(b) Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to shareholders, any notice to a shareholder given by the Company may be given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the shareholder to whom the notice is given. Any such consent shall be revocable by the shareholder by written notice to the Company. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked (i) if the Company is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Company in accordance with such consent and (ii) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company or to the transfer agent or other person responsible for the giving of notice; provided, however, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action. For purposes of these Bylaws, “electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.

(c) Notice shall be deemed given, if mailed, when deposited in the United States mail with postage prepaid, if addressed to a shareholder at his or her address on the Company’s records. Notice given by electronic transmission shall be deemed given (i) if by facsimile, when directed to a number at which the shareholder has consented to receive notice; (ii) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the shareholder has consented to receive notice; (iii) if by posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the shareholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (A) such posting and (B) the giving of such separate notice; and (iv) by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the shareholder.

SECTION 4 QUORUM; VOTING:

(a) At any meeting of the shareholders, every holder of common stock shall be entitled to vote in person, by a telephonic voting system (including one established by a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent), or by proxy appointed by a proper instrument in writing and subscribed by the shareholder or by his or her duly appointed attorney-in-fact. A shareholder may authorize another person or persons to act for him as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of a telegram, cablegram, or other means of electronic transmission to the person who will be the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder of the proxy to receive such transmission, provided that any such telegram, cablegram or other means of electronic transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission was authorized by the shareholder. Each shareholder shall have such voting power as is prescribed by the Articles of Incorporation with respect to the shares registered in his or her name on the books of the Company.


(b) At any meeting of shareholders, the holders of shares having a majority of the voting power entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for all purposes. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of shareholders, the holders of shares having a majority of the outstanding voting power present and entitled to vote at any meeting may adjourn the same from time to time for successive periods of not more than ninety days after such adjournment, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the original meeting.

(c) If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the holders of shares constituting a majority of the voting power represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the shareholders unless the vote of a greater number of shares is required by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, by these Bylaws or by law.

SECTION 5 ORGANIZATION; CONDUCT OF MEETING:

(a) Each meeting of shareholders shall be convened and presided over by the Chairman of the Board, if any, or in his or her absence, by the vice chairman of the Board, if any, or in his or her absence, by the Chief Executive Officer, if any, or in his or her absence, by a chairman of the meeting, which chairman must be an officer or director of the Company and must be designated as chairman of the meeting by the Board of Directors. The Secretary of the Company or, in his or her absence, a person whom the person presiding over the meeting shall appoint, shall act as Secretary of each meeting of shareholders. Whenever the Secretary shall act as chairman of the meeting, or shall be absent, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint a person present to act as Secretary of the meeting.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at a meeting except in accordance with the requirements and procedures set forth in this Section 5. The Board of Directors may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of shareholders as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the Board of Directors, the chairman of any meeting of shareholders shall have the right and authority to convene and adjourn the meeting, prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are necessary, appropriate or convenient for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting, (ii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present, (iii) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to shareholders of record of the Company, their duly authorized and constituted proxies and such other persons as the chairman of the meeting shall determine; (iv) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; (v) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants; (vi) adjournment of the meeting either by the chairman of the meeting or by vote of the shareholders by the vote of a majority of the voting power of the stock entitled to vote on the subject matter, present in person or by proxy at the meeting; and (vii) regulation of the voting or balloting, as applicable, including matters which are to be voted on by ballot, if any. Unless and except to the extent


determined by the Board of Directors or the chairman of the meeting, meetings of shareholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure. The chairman of the meeting shall have absolute authority to decide questions of compliance with the foregoing procedures, and his or her ruling thereon shall be final and conclusive.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Bylaws, unless otherwise required by law, if a shareholder (or qualified representative) does not appear at the annual or special meeting of shareholders of the Company to present a nomination or business proposed by such shareholder pursuant to Section 6 of this Article I or Section 1 of Article II, such nomination shall be disregarded and such proposed business shall not be transacted, even though proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Company. In order to be considered a qualified representative of the shareholder, a person must be a duly authorized officer, manager or partner of such shareholder or must be authorized by a writing executed by such shareholder or an electronic transmission delivered by such shareholder to act for such shareholder as proxy at the meeting of shareholders, and such person must produce such writing or electronic transmission, or a reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission, at the meeting of shareholders.

SECTION 6 BUSINESS TO BE CONDUCTED; ADVANCE NOTICE:

(a) At an annual meeting of shareholders, only such business (other than nominations of Directors, which must be made in compliance with, and shall be exclusively governed by, Section 1 of Article II of these Bylaws) shall be conducted as shall have been brought before the meeting (i) pursuant to the Company’s notice of the meeting (or any supplement thereto), (ii) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof or (iii) by any shareholder of the Company who is a shareholder of record at the time of giving of the notice provided for in this Section 6 and at the time of the annual meeting, who shall be entitled to vote at such meeting and who shall have complied with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 6; clause (iii) shall be the exclusive means for a shareholder to submit such business (other than matters properly brought under Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and included in the Company’s notice of meeting) before or at an annual meeting of shareholders.

(b) At any special meeting of shareholders, only such business or proposals as are specified in the notice of the meeting may be properly brought before the meeting.

(c) For any such business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder of record pursuant to Section 6(a)(iii) of this Article I of these Bylaws, the shareholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Company and any such proposed business must constitute a proper matter for shareholder action. To be timely, a shareholder’s notice, in writing, must be delivered to or mailed to and received by the Secretary of the Company at the principal offices of the Company not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days in advance of the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that (i) no annual meeting was held in the previous year or (ii) the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such date, notice by the shareholder must be received not earlier than the 120th day prior to the date of such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to


the date of such annual meeting or, the seventh day following the day on which notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or on which public notice was given. In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or the announcement thereof commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a shareholder’s notice as described above. Public notice shall be deemed to have been given if a public announcement is made by press release reported by a national news service or in a publicly available document filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business (other than the election of Directors) shall be conducted at an annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the chairman of the meeting may, if the facts warrant, determine that the proposed business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6 (including whether the shareholder or beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made solicited (or is part of a group which solicited) or did not so solicit, as the case may be, proxies in support of such shareholder’s proposal in compliance with such shareholder’s representation as required by clause (e)(iii)(e) of this Section 6); and, if the Chairman should so determine, the Chairman shall so declare to the meeting, and any such proposed business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6, a shareholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 6; provided, however, that any references in these Bylaws to the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder are not intended to and shall not limit the requirements applicable to business proposals to be considered pursuant to Section 6 of this Article I of these Bylaws (including clause (a)(iii) hereof). Nothing in this Section 6 shall be deemed to affect any rights of shareholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Company’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act. The provisions of this Section 6 shall also govern what constitutes timely notice for purposes of Rule 14a-4(c) of the Exchange Act.

(i) as to each matter the shareholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the text of the proposal or business (including any proposed resolutions), the reasons for proposing to conduct such business at the meeting and any material interest of such shareholder (and of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made) in such business;

(viii) a representation as to whether the shareholder or the beneficial owner, if any, intends or is part of a group which intends (1) to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Company’s outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt the proposal or (2) to otherwise solicit proxies from shareholders in support of such proposal. The meaning of the term “group” shall be within the meaning ascribed to such term under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.


(f) The proposed business must not be an improper subject for shareholder action under applicable law, and the shareholder must comply with state law, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 6. The shareholder (or a qualified representative of the shareholder) must appear at the meeting of shareholders to propose such business and another shareholder must second the proposal.

SECTION 7 WRITTEN CONSENT OF SHAREHOLDERS: Any action which may be taken at any meeting of the shareholders, except the annual meeting of the shareholders, may be taken without a meeting if consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all of the shareholders entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof. Such consent may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1, (i) unless the shareholder (or a qualified representative of the shareholder) appears at the applicable meeting of shareholders to present the nomination and another shareholder seconds the shareholder’s motion, such nomination shall be disregarded, and (ii) a shareholder shall also comply with state law and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 1.

Attendance of a Director at any meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of the meeting except where a Director attends a meeting for the sole and express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Rules of procedures for the conduct of such meetings may be adopted by resolution of the Board of Directors.

(b) Members of the Board, or of any committee designated by the Board, may participate in a meeting of the Board or committee by means of a conference telephone or similar communication equipment whereby all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participants in a meeting in this manner shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

SECTION 5 QUORUM: A majority of the entire Board of Directors shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the Board, and the act of the majority of the Directors present at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board of Directors unless a greater number of Directors is required by the Articles of Incorporation, by these Bylaws or by law. At any meeting of Directors, whether or not a quorum is present, the Directors present thereat may adjourn the same from time to time without notice other than announcement at the meeting.

SECTION 6 WRITTEN CONSENT OF DIRECTORS: Any action which may be taken at any meeting of Directors, or of any committee of the Board, may be taken without a meeting if consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all of the members of the Board or committee. Such consents may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

SECTION 7 RESIGNATION OF DIRECTORS: Any Director of the Company may resign at any time by giving written notice of such resignation to the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the President, or the Secretary of the Company. Any such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein or, if no time is specified, upon receipt thereof by the Board of Directors or one of the above-named officers of the Company; and, unless specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

SECTION 8 VACANCIES: Vacancies on the Board and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of Directors to constitute the Board of Directors may be only filled by a majority of the Directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining Director.

SECTION 9 COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS: The Board of Directors may, by resolution passed by a majority of the entire Board, fix the terms and amount of compensation payable to any person for his or her services as Director, if he or she is not otherwise compensated for services rendered as an officer or employee of the Company; provided, however, that any Director may be reimbursed for reasonable and necessary expenses of


attending meetings of the Board, or otherwise incurred for any Company purpose; and provided, further, that members of special or standing committees may also be allowed compensation and expenses similarly incurred. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to preclude any Director from serving the Company in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor.

SECTION 10 COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS: The Board of Directors may, by resolution passed by a majority of the entire Board, designate two or more Directors to constitute an Executive Committee of the Board which shall have and shall exercise all of the authority of the Board of Directors in the management of the Company, in the intervals between meetings of the Board of Directors. In addition, the Board may appoint any other committee or committees, with such members, functions, and powers as the Board may designate. The Board shall have the power at any time to fill vacancies in, to change the size or membership of, or to dissolve any one or more of such committees. Each such committee shall have such name as may be determined by the Board, and shall keep regular minutes of its proceedings and report the same to the Board of Directors for approval as required. At all meetings of a committee, a majority of the committee members then in office shall constitute a quorum for the purpose of transacting business, and the acts of a majority of the committee members present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the acts of the committee. A Director who may be disqualified, by reason of personal interest, from voting on any particular matter before a meeting of a committee may nevertheless be counted for the purpose of constituting a quorum of the committee. Any action which is required to be or may be taken at a meeting of a committee of Directors may be taken without a meeting if consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, are signed by all the members of the committee.

To the extent permitted by law, the signatures of such officers, and the corporate seal, appearing on certificates of stock, may be facsimiles, engraved or printed. In case any such officer who signed or whose facsimile signature appears on any such certificate shall have ceased to be such officer before the certificate is issued, such certificate may nevertheless be issued by the Company with the same effect as if such officer had not ceased to be such officer at the date of its issue.

(b) The Company shall not issue a certificate for a fractional share; however, the Board of Directors may issue, in lieu of any fractional share, scrip or other evidence of ownership upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV, the Board of Directors may by resolution determine to issue certificateless shares, for registration in book entry accounts for shares of stock in such form as the appropriate officers of the Company may from time to time prescribe, in addition to or in place of shares of the Company represented by certificates, to the extent authorized by applicable law.

SECTION 2 RECORD OWNERSHIP: The Company shall maintain a record of the name and address of the holder of each certificate, the number of shares represented thereby, and the date of issue and the number thereof. The Company shall be entitled to treat the holder of record of any share of stock as the holder in fact thereof, and accordingly it will not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim of interest in such share on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of Missouri.

SECTION 3 TRANSFERS: Transfers of stock of the Company shall be made on the books of the Company only by the holder thereof in person, or by such person’s duly appointed attorney-in-fact, lawfully constituted in writing, and upon the surrender of the certificate therefor for cancellation, with an assignment and power of transfer endorsed thereon or attached thereto, duly executed, with such proof of the authenticity of the transfer (or, with respect to


uncertificated shares, by deliver of duly executed instructions or in any other manner permitted by law) and payment of any applicable transfer taxes as the Company or its agents may reasonably require.

The Board of Directors may adopt such rules as it may deem expedient concerning the issue, transfer and registration of stock certificates of the Company.

SECTION 5 LOST CERTIFICATES: Each person whose certificate of stock has been lost, stolen or destroyed shall be entitled to have a replacement certificate issued in the same name and for the same number of shares as the original certificate, provided that such person has first filed with such officers of the Company, Transfer Agents and Registrars, as the Board of Directors may designate, an affidavit stating that such certificate was lost, stolen or destroyed and a bond of indemnity, each in the form and with such provisions as such officers, Transfer Agents and Registrars may reasonably deem satisfactory.

SECTION 6 TRANSFER BOOKS; RECORD DATES: The Board of Directors shall have power to close the stock transfer books of the Company as permitted by law; provided, however, that in lieu of closing the said books, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a date, not exceeding seventy days preceding the date of any meeting of shareholders, or the date for the payment of any dividend, or the date for the allotment of rights, or the date when any change or conversion or exchange of shares shall go into effect, as a record date to allow for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, any such meeting, and any adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any such dividend, or to receive any such allotment of rights or to exercise the rights in respect of any such change, conversion or exchange of shares, and in such case such shareholders, and only such shareholders, as shall be shareholders of record on the date of closing the transfer books or on the record date so fixed shall be entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, such meeting, and any adjournment thereof, or to receive payment of such dividend, or to receive such allotment of rights, or to exercise such rights, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the Company after such date of closing of the transfer books or such record date fixed as aforesaid. If the Board of Directors does not close the transfer books or set a record date for the determination of the shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting of shareholders, only the shareholders who are shareholders of record at the close of business on the twentieth day preceding the date of the meeting shall be entitled to notice of and to vote at the meeting and upon any adjournment of the meeting, except that if prior to the meeting written waivers of notice of the meeting are signed and delivered to the Company by all of the shareholders of record at the time the meeting is convened, only the shareholders who are shareholders of record at the time the meeting is convened shall be entitled to vote at the meeting and any adjournment of the meeting.

SECTION 7 DIVIDENDS: Dividends upon the outstanding shares of the Company may be declared by the Board of Directors at any regular or special meeting pursuant to law. Before payment of any dividend, there may be set aside out of any funds of the Company


available for dividends such sum or sums as the Directors from time to time, in their absolute discretion, think proper as a reserve fund to meet contingencies, or for equalizing dividends, or for repairing or maintaining any property of the Company, or for such other purpose as the Directors shall think conducive to the interest of the Company, and the Directors may modify or abolish any such reserve in the manner in which it was created.

SECTION 4 NOTICES:

(a) Whenever, under the provisions of applicable law, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, written notice is required to be given to any Director or shareholder, it shall not be construed to require personal notice, but such notice may be given by mail, by depositing the same in the post office or in a letter box, in a post-paid sealed wrapper, addressed to such Director or shareholder at such address as appears on the books of the Company, and such notice shall be deemed to be given at the time when the same shall be thus mailed, or may be given by telefax, telegraphic or other electronic transmission to the extent authorized or allowed by law.

(b) Any person may waive any notice required to be given under these Bylaws. Whenever notice is required to be given pursuant to the law of Missouri, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting of shareholders or the Board of Directors or a committee thereof shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the shareholder or Director attends such meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the shareholders or the Board of Directors or committee thereof need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the Articles of Incorporation or by these Bylaws.
