Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On June 6, 2013, at the annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (the “Company”), the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate”), which Amendment was filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on June 6, 2013. The Amendment made changes to Article VI of the Certificate that (i) eliminated the Company’s classified board of directors such that going forward, all directors will stand for election annually for a one-year term, (ii) removed a provision stating that directors may be removed only “for cause” and (iii) made other conforming changes to implement the non-classified board of directors.
The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
On June 6, 2013, upon the filing of the Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State, the Fifth Amended and Restated Bylaws of Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (the “Bylaws”) became effective, as previously-approved by the Company’s board of directors subject to the filing of the Amendment. The changes reflected in the Bylaws were to (i) make changes substantially identical to those set forth in the Amendment in order to de-classify the board of directors and (ii) eliminate all references to the office of “Executive Chairman,” as the Company no longer has such a role.
The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Bylaws, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Live Nation Entertainment, Inc., a corporation duly organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Corporation”), does hereby certify that:
1.    The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended, is hereby amended by deleting ARTICLE VI thereof and inserting the following in lieu thereof:

ARTICLE VI

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors under specified circumstances, the number of directors of the Corporation shall be fixed, and may be increased or decreased from time to time, exclusively by resolution adopted by a majority of the entire Board of Directors.

SECTION 2. Unless and except to the extent that the By-Laws of the Corporation shall so require, the election of directors of the Corporation need not be by written ballot.

SECTION 3. Beginning with the annual meeting of stockholders held in 2013, the Board of Directors shall be elected annually at each annual meeting of the stockholders. The directors will hold office until their respective death, resignation or removal and until their respective successors are elected and qualified.

SECTION 4. Except as otherwise provided by a Certificate of Designations, any director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed from office only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the total voting power of the Voting Stock (as defined in ARTICLE XI).

SECTION 5. Except as otherwise provided by a Certificate of Designations, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors or any vacancies in the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office or other cause shall be filled solely by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even though less than a quorum

Any director so chosen shall hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders, and until such director’s successor shall be elected and qualified. No decrease in the number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.”

OF
LIVE NATION ENTERTAINMENT, INC.
Incorporated under the Laws of the State of Delaware

SECTION 1.2 Books and Records . The books and records of the corporation may be kept outside the State of Delaware at such place or places as may from time to time be designated by the Board of Directors.
ARTICLE II
STOCKHOLDERS
SECTION 2.1 Annual Meeting . The annual meeting of the stockholders of the corporation shall be held on such date and at such place and time as may be fixed by resolution of the Board of Directors.
SECTION 2.2 Special Meeting . Except as otherwise required by law or provided by the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors designating the rights, powers and preferences of any series of Preferred Stock and the Certificate of Designations filed by the corporation with respect thereto (collectively, a “Certificate of Designations”), and except as set forth in the corporation’s certificate of incorporation, as amended or restated (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by the Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Chairman of the Board”) or by the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the entire Board of Directors.
SECTION 2.3 Place of Meeting . The Board of Directors or the Chairman of the Board may designate the place of meeting for any annual meeting or for any special meeting of the stockholders called by the Board of Directors or the Chairman of the Board. If no designation is so made, the place of meeting shall be the principal executive office of the corporation.
SECTION 2.4 Notice of Meeting . Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take action at a meeting, written or printed notice, stating the place, if any, date and time of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting and, in the case of special meetings, the purpose or purposes, of such meeting, shall be delivered by the corporation not less

1



than ten (10) days nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting, either personally, by mail, except as otherwise provided by law, by a form of electronic transmission (consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is being given) or by other lawful means, to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited in the United States mail with postage thereon prepaid, addressed to the stockholder at his or her address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the corporation. Notice given by a form of electronic transmission shall be deemed given (i) if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice, (ii) if by electronic mail, when directed to the stockholder entitled to receive notice, (iii) if by posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (A) such posting and (B) the giving of such separate notice, and (iv) if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder. Such further notice shall be given as may be required by law. Meetings may be held without notice if all stockholders entitled to vote are present, or if notice is waived by those not present in accordance with Section 6.6 of these Bylaws. Any previously scheduled meeting of the stockholders may be postponed, and, unless the Certificate of Incorporation otherwise provides, any special meeting of the stockholders may be cancelled, by resolution of the Board of Directors upon public notice given prior to the date previously scheduled for such meeting of stockholders.
SECTION 2.5 Quorum and Adjournment . Except as otherwise provided by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of a majority of the total voting power of all classes of the then-outstanding capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Voting Stock”), represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders, except that when specified business is to be voted on by a class or series of stock voting as a separate class or series, the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of such class or series shall constitute a quorum of such class or series for the transaction of such business. Attendance of a person at a 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 shall not constitute the presence of such person for the purposes of determining whether a quorum exists. The chairman of the meeting or the holders of shares representing a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of Voting Stock so present may adjourn the meeting from time to time, whether or not there is such a quorum. No notice of the time and place of adjourned meetings need be given except as required by law; provided, however, that if the date of any adjourned meeting is more than thirty (30) days after the date for which the meeting was originally noticed, or if a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the place, if any, date and time of the adjourned meeting and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting shall be given in conformity herewith. The stockholders present at a duly called meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.
SECTION 2.6 Conduct of Business . The chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation of

2



the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as seem to him or her in order. The chairman shall have the power to adjourn the meeting to another place, if any, date and time.
SECTION 2.7 Proxies . At all meetings of stockholders, a stockholder may vote by proxy executed in writing (or in such manner prescribed by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware) by the stockholder, or by his or her duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Such proxy must be filed with the Secretary or his or her representative at or before the time of the meeting at which such proxy will be voted. No proxy shall be valid after eleven (11) months from the date of its execution. Each proxy shall be revocable unless expressly provided therein to be irrevocable or unless otherwise made irrevocable by law.
SECTION 2.8 Notice of Stockholder Business .
(A) At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business must be (1) specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (2) brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (3) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a stockholder present in person who (a)(i) was a beneficial owner of shares of the corporation both at the time of giving the notice provided for in this Section 2.8 and at the time of the meeting, (ii) is entitled to vote at the meeting and (iii) has complied with this Section 2.8 in all applicable respects or (b) properly made such proposal in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (as so amended and inclusive of such rules and regulations, the “Exchange Act”), and included in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors. The foregoing clause (3) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to propose business to be brought before an annual meeting of the stockholders. Stockholders shall not be permitted to propose business to be brought before a special meeting of the stockholders, and the only matters that may be brought before a special meeting are the matters specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the person calling the meeting pursuant to Section 2.2 of these Bylaws. For purposes of this Section 2.8 and Section 2.9, “present in person” shall mean that the stockholder proposing that the business be brought before the meeting of the corporation, or, if the proposing stockholder is not an individual, a qualified representative of such proposing stockholder, appear at such meeting. A “qualified representative” of such proposing stockholder shall be, if such proposing stockholder is (i) a general or limited partnership, any general partner or person who functions as a general partner of the general or limited partnership or (ii) a corporation or a limited liability company, any officer or person who functions as an officer, director, general partner or person who functions as an officer of the corporation or limited liability company or any officer, director, or general partner of any entity ultimately in control of the corporation or limited liability company. Stockholders seeking to nominate persons for election to the Board of Directors must comply with Section 2.9 and Section 2.10 of these Bylaws, and this Section 2.8 shall not be applicable to nominations except as expressly provided in Section 2.9 and Section 2.10 of these Bylaws; provided, however, that terms defined in this Section 2.8 and used in Section 2.9 and Section 2.10 of these Bylaws shall have the meaning defined in this Section 2.8 unless otherwise provided.

3



(B) Without qualification, for business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must (1) provide Timely Notice (as defined below) thereof in writing and in proper form to the Secretary and (2) provide any updates or supplements to such notice at the times and in the forms required by this Section 2.8. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive office of the corporation not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day nor later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of any annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or more than thirty (30) days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder, to be timely, must be so delivered to the Secretary not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the later of (a) the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting and (b) the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such annual meeting was made (such notice within such time periods, “Timely Notice”). In no event shall any adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting or the public announcement thereof commence a new time period for the giving of Timely Notice as described above.
(C) To be in proper form for purposes of this Section 2.8, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be required to set forth:
(1) As to each Proposing Person (as defined below), (a) the name and address of such Proposing Person (including, if applicable, the name and address that appear on the corporation’s books and records) and (b) the class or series and number of shares of the corporation that are, directly or indirectly, owned of record or beneficially owned (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) by such Proposing Person, except that such Proposing Person in all events shall be deemed to beneficially own any shares of any class or series of the corporation as to which such Proposing Person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership at any time in the future (the disclosures to be made pursuant to the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) are referred to as “Stockholder Information”);
(2) As to each Proposing Person, (a) the full notional amount of any securities that, directly or indirectly, underlie any “derivative security” (as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1(c) under the Exchange Act) that constitutes a “call equivalent position” (as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1(b) under the Exchange Act) (“Synthetic Equity Position”) and that is, directly or indirectly, held or maintained by such Proposing Person, with respect to any shares of any class or series of shares of the corporation; provided that, for the purposes of the definition of “Synthetic Equity Position,” the term “derivative security” shall also include any security or instrument that would not otherwise constitute a “derivative security” as a result of any feature that would make any conversion, exercise or similar right or privilege of such security or instrument becoming determinable only at some future date or upon the happening of a future occurrence, in which case the determination of the amount of securities into which such security or instrument would be convertible or exercisable shall be made assuming that such security or instrument is immediately convertible or exercisable at the time of such determination; and, provided, further, that any Proposing Person satisfying the requirements of Rule 13d-1(b)(1) under the Exchange Act (other than a Proposing Person that so satisfies Rule 13d-1(b)(1) under

4



the Exchange Act solely by reason of Rule 13d-1(b)(1)(ii)(E)) shall not be deemed to hold or maintain the notional amount of any securities that underlie a Synthetic Equity Position held by such Proposing Person as a hedge with respect to a bona fide derivatives trade or position of such Proposing Person arising in the ordinary course of such Proposing Person’s business as a derivatives dealer, (b) any rights to dividends on the shares of any class or series of shares of the corporation owned beneficially by such Proposing Person that are separated or separable from the underlying shares of the corporation, (c)(x) if such Proposing Person is (i) a general or limited partnership, syndicate or other group, the identity of each general partner and each person who functions as a general partner of the general or limited partnership, each member of the syndicate or group and each person controlling the general partner or member and (ii) a corporation or a limited liability company, the identity of each officer and each person who functions as an officer of the corporation or limited liability company, each person controlling the corporation or limited liability company and each officer, director, general partner and person who functions as an officer, director or general partner of any entity ultimately in control of the corporation or limited liability company (each such person or persons set forth in the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), a “Responsible Person”), any fiduciary duties owed by such Responsible Person to the equity holders or other beneficiaries of such Proposing Person and any material interests or relationships of such Responsible Person that are not shared generally by other record or beneficial holders of the shares of any class or series of the corporation and that reasonably could have influenced the decision of such Proposing Person to propose such business to be brought before the meeting, and (y) if such Proposing Person is a natural person, any material interests or relationships of such natural person that are not shared generally by other record or beneficial holders of the shares of any class or series of the corporation and that reasonably could have influenced the decision of such Proposing Person to propose such business to be brought before the meeting, (d) any material equity interests or any Synthetic Equity Position in any principal competitor of the corporation held by such Proposing Person, (e) a summary of any material discussions regarding the business proposed to be brought before the meeting (x) between or among any of the Proposing Persons or (y) between or among any Proposing Person and any other record or beneficial holder of the shares of any class or series of the corporation (including, their names), (f) any material pending or threatened legal proceeding in which such Proposing Person is a party or material participant involving the corporation or any of its officers or directors, or any affiliate of the corporation, (g) any other material relationship between such Proposing Person, on the one hand, and the corporation, any affiliate of the corporation or any principal competitor of the corporation, on the other hand, (h) any direct or indirect material interest in any material contract or agreement of such Proposing Person with the corporation, any affiliate of the corporation or any principal competitor of the corporation (including, in any such case, any employment agreement, collective bargaining agreement or consulting agreement) and (i) any other information relating to such Proposing Person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies or consents by such Proposing Person in support of the business proposed to be brought before the meeting pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act (the disclosures to be made pursuant to the foregoing clauses (a) through (i) are referred to as “Disclosable Interests”); provided, however, that Disclosable Interests shall not include any such disclosures with respect to the ordinary course business activities of any broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company

5



or other nominee who is a Proposing Person solely as a result of being the stockholder directed to prepare and submit the notice required by these Bylaws on behalf of a beneficial owner; and
(3) As to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting, (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting and any material interest in such business of each Proposing Person, (b) the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration), (c) a reasonably detailed description of all agreements, arrangements and understandings (x) between or among any of the Proposing Persons or (y) between or among any Proposing Person and any other record or beneficial holder(s) or person(s) who have a right to acquire beneficial ownership at any time in the future of the shares of any class or series of the corporation or any other person or entity (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such stockholder and (d) any other information relating to such item of business that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies in support of the business proposed to be brought before the meeting pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act; provided, however, that the disclosures required by this paragraph (3) shall not include any disclosures with respect to any broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee who is a Proposing Person solely as a result of being the stockholder directed to prepare and submit the notice required by these Bylaws on behalf of a beneficial owner.
(D) A Proposing Person shall update and supplement its notice to the corporation of its intent to propose business at an annual or special meeting, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be true and correct as of the record date for the meeting and as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive office of the corporation not later than five (5) business days after the record date for the meeting (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of the record date), and not later than eight (8) business days prior to the date for the meeting, if practicable, or any adjournment or postponement thereof (and, if not practicable, on the first practicable date prior to the date to which the meeting has been adjourned or postponed) (in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof).
(E) Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at an annual meeting except in accordance with this Section 2.8. The chairman of the annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine that the business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with this Section 2.8, and if he or she should so determine, he or she shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.
(F) Other than with respect to clause (A)(2) of this Section 2.8, this Section 2.8 is expressly intended to apply to any business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders other than any proposal made pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act. In addition to the requirements of this Section 2.8 with respect to any business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting, each Proposing Person shall comply with all applicable

6



requirements of the Exchange Act with respect to any such business. This Section 2.8 shall not be deemed to affect the rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.
(G) For purposes of this Section 2.8, the term “Proposing Person” shall mean (i) the stockholder providing the notice of business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting, (ii) the beneficial owner or beneficial owners, if different, on whose behalf the notice of the business proposed to be brought before the annual meeting is made and (iii) any participant (as defined in paragraphs (a)(ii)-(vi) of Instruction 3 to Item 4 of Schedule 14A) with such stockholder in such solicitation or associate (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act for purposes of these Bylaws) of such stockholder or beneficial owner.

(H) For purposes of these Bylaws, “public announcement” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by a national news service or in a document publicly filed by the corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
SECTION 2.9 Notice of Nominations to Directors .
(A) Nominations of any person for election to the Board of Directors at an annual meeting or at a special meeting (but only if the election of directors is a matter specified in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the person calling such special meeting) may be made at such meeting only (1) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, including by any committee or persons authorized to do so by the Board of Directors or these Bylaws, or (2) by a stockholder present in person (a)(i) who was a beneficial owner of shares of the corporation both at the time of giving the notice provided for in this Section 2.9 and at the time of the meeting, (ii) is entitled to vote at the meeting and (iii) has complied with this Section 2.9 and Section 2.10 as to such notice and nomination or (b) pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 14a-11. The foregoing clause (2) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to propose any nomination of a person or persons for election to the Board of Directors to be considered by the stockholders at an annual meeting or special meeting.
(B)(1) Without qualification, for a stockholder to make any nomination of a person or persons for election to the Board of Directors at an annual meeting or special meeting in lieu of an annual meeting (whether such nomination is made pursuant to Rule 14a-11 or otherwise), the stockholder must (a) provide notice thereof in writing and in proper form delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive office of the corporation (x) in the case of an annual meeting held within thirty (30) days of the preceding year’s annual meeting, not less than one hundred and twenty (120) days nor more than one hundred fifty (150) days prior to the mailing date of the proxy statement for the preceding year’s annual meeting in the case of an annual meeting, or (y) in the case of an annual meeting not held within thirty (30) days of the preceding year’s annual meeting or, in the case of a special meeting in lieu of an annual meeting, in the time specified in the 8-K to be issued by the corporation with respect to such meeting, which time shall be a reasonable period prior to the mailing of the corporation’s proxy materials and (b) provide the information, agreements and questionnaires with respect to such stockholder and its candidate for nomination as required to be set forth by this Section 2.9 and Section 2.10.

SECTION 2.10 Additional Requirements for Valid Nomination of Candidates to Serve as Director and, if Elected, to be Seated as Directors .
(A) To be eligible to be a nominee for election as a director of the corporation at an annual or special meeting, a candidate must be nominated in the manner prescribed in Section 2.9. In addition, the Board of Directors may require the candidate for nomination, whether nominated by the Board of Directors or by a stockholder of record, to have previously delivered (in accordance with the time period prescribed for delivery in a notice to such candidate given by or on behalf of the Board of Directors) to the Secretary at the principal executive office of the corporation (i) a completed written questionnaire (in a form provided by the corporation) with respect to the background, qualifications, stock ownership and independence of such proposed nominee and (ii) a written representation and agreement (in a form provided by the corporation) that such candidate for nomination (a) is not and, if elected as a director during his or her term of office, will not become a party to (I) any agreement, arrangement or understanding with, and has not given and will not give any commitment or assurance to, any person or entity as to how such proposed nominee, if elected as a director of the corporation, will act or vote on any issue or question (a “Voting Commitment”) or (II) any Voting Commitment that could limit or interfere with such proposed nominee’s ability to comply, if elected as a director of the corporation, with such proposed nominee’s fiduciary duties under applicable law, (b) is not, and will not become a party to, any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or entity other than the

9



corporation with respect to any direct or indirect compensation, reimbursement or indemnification in connection with service or action as a director and (c) if elected as a director of the corporation, will comply with all applicable corporate governance, conflict of interest, confidentiality, stock ownership and trading and other policies and guidelines of the corporation applicable to directors and in effect during such person’s term in office as a director (and, if requested by any candidate for nomination, the Secretary shall provide to such candidate for nomination all such policies and guidelines then in effect).
(B) The Board of Directors may also require any proposed candidate for nomination as a Director to furnish such other information as may reasonably be requested by the Board of Directors in writing prior to the meeting of stockholders at which such candidate’s nomination is to be acted upon in order for the Board of Directors to determine the eligibility of such candidate for nomination to be an independent director of the corporation in accordance with the Board of Directors Governance Guidelines.
(C) No person shall be eligible for nomination as a director of the corporation unless such candidate for nomination and the Nominating Person seeking to place such candidate’s name in nomination has complied with Section 2.9 and this Section 2.10. The chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine that a nomination was not properly made in accordance with Section 2.9 and this Section 2.10, and if he or she should so determine, he or she shall so declare such determination to the meeting, the defective nomination shall be disregarded and any ballots cast for the nominee in question (but in the case of any form of ballot listing other qualified nominees, only the ballots cast for the nominee in question) shall be void and of no force or effect.
(D) Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, except as provided in Section 3.9, no person shall be eligible to be seated as a director of the corporation unless nominated and elected in accordance with this Section 2.10, as determined by a majority of directors on the Board of Directors then in office.
SECTION 2.11 Procedure for Election of Directors; Required Vote .
(A) Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, any Certificate of Designations or these Bylaws, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the total voting power of the Voting Stock actually present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter shall be the act of the stockholders; provided, however, that election of directors at all meetings of the stockholders at which directors are to be elected shall be, subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors under specified circumstances, in the manner provided in paragraphs (B) through (D) of this Section 2.11. No stockholder shall be entitled to exercise any right of cumulative voting. Every reference in these Bylaws to a majority or other proportion of shares, or a majority or other proportion of the votes of shares, of Voting Stock (or any one or more classes or series of Voting Stock) shall refer to such majority or other proportion of the votes to which such shares of Voting Stock entitle their holders to cast as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation; provided, however, that with respect to the election of directors, such voting standard shall be as further clarified in paragraph (B) of this Section 2.11.

10



(B) Each director to be elected by the stockholders of the corporation shall be elected by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast with respect to such director by the shares represented and entitled to vote therefor at a meeting of the stockholders for the election of directors at which a quorum is present (an “Election Meeting”); provided, however, that if the Board of Directors determines that the number of nominees exceeds the number of directors to be elected at such meeting (a “Contested Election”), and the Board of Directors has not rescinded such determination by the date that is twenty (20) days prior to the date of the Election Meeting as initially announced, each of the directors to be elected at the Election Meeting shall be elected by the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast by the shares represented and entitled to vote at such meeting with respect to the election of such director. For purposes of this Section 2.11, a “majority of the votes cast” means that the number of votes cast “for” a candidate for director exceeds the number of votes cast “against” that director. In an election other than a Contested Election, stockholders will be given the choice to cast votes “for” or “against” the election of directors or to “abstain” from such vote and shall not have the ability to cast any other vote with respect to such election of directors. In a Contested Election, stockholders will be given the choice to cast “for” or “withhold” votes for the election of directors and shall not have the ability to cast any other vote with respect to such election of directors. In the event an Election Meeting involves the election of directors by separate votes by class or classes or series, the determination as to whether an election constitutes a Contested Election shall be made on a class by class or series by series basis, as applicable.
(C) In the event one or more incumbent directors (each, a “Subject Director”) fails to receive the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at an Election Meeting at which there was no Contested Election, either (i) the Nominating and Governance Committee or (ii) if one or more of the members of the Nominating and Governance Committee is a Subject Director or if the Board of Directors determines that any decision to be made with respect to a Subject Director should be made by a committee other than the Nominating and Governance Committee, a committee consisting solely of independent directors (as determined in accordance with The New York Stock Exchange corporate governance standards, Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and the corporation’s independence standards) who are not Subject Directors (the committee described in clause (i) or (ii) of this sentence, the “Committee”) will make a determination as to whether to accept or reject any Resignations (as defined below) tendered pursuant to the corporation’s Board Policy Regarding Majority Voting, or whether other action should be taken (including whether to request that a Subject Director resign from the Board of Directors if no Resignation has been tendered following the relevant Election Meeting). The Committee will act with respect to any Subject Directors within ninety (90) days from the date of the certification of the election results and shall notify the Subject Directors of its decision. The Committee may consider all factors it considers relevant, including any stated reasons for “against” votes, whether the underlying cause or causes of the “against” votes are curable, the factors, if any, set forth in the corporation’s director selection guidelines or other policies that are to be considered by the Nominating and Governance Committee in evaluating potential candidates for the Board of Directors as such criteria relate to each Subject Director, the length of service of each Subject Director and each Subject Director’s contributions to the corporation. Subject Directors shall not participate in the deliberation or decision(s) of the Committee. The corporation shall publicly disclose the decision(s) of the Committee in a filing with the Securities and Exchange

11



Commission of a Current Report on Form 8-K to the extent then required by the rules and regulations governing such form. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the result of accepting all tendered Resignations then pending and requesting resignations from incumbent directors who did not submit a Resignation following the relevant Election Meeting would be that the corporation would have fewer than three directors who were in office before the election of directors, the Committee may determine to extend such 90-day period by an additional ninety (90) days if it determines that such an extension is in the best interests of the corporation and its stockholders. For purposes of this Section 2.11, a “Resignation” is an irrevocable resignation submitted by Subject Director following the relevant Election Meeting in accordance with the corporation’s Board Policy Regarding Majority Voting that will become effective upon acceptance of such resignation by the Committee.
(D) If a Subject Director’s tendered Resignation is not accepted by the Committee or such Subject Director does not otherwise submit his or her resignation to the Board of Directors, such director shall continue to serve until his or her successor is duly elected, or his or her earlier resignation or removal. If a Subject Director’s resignation is accepted by the Committee pursuant to this Section 2.11, or if a nominee for director is not elected and the nominee is not an incumbent director, then the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may fill any resulting vacancy or decrease the size of the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.9 of these Bylaws.
SECTION 2.12 Inspectors of Elections; Opening and Closing the Polls . The Board of Directors by resolution shall appoint one or more inspectors, which inspector or inspectors may include individuals who serve the corporation in other capacities, including, without limitation, as officers, employees, agents or representatives, to act at the meetings of stockholders and make a written report thereof. One or more persons may be designated as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate has been appointed to act or is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before discharging his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspectors shall have the duties prescribed by law.
The chairman of the meeting shall fix and announce at the meeting the date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting.
SECTION 2.13 No Stockholder Action by Written Consent . Except as otherwise provided by a Certificate of Designations, any action required or permitted to be taken by stockholders may be effected only at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be effected by a written consent or consents by stockholders in lieu of such a meeting.
SECTION 2.14 Stock List . A complete list of stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders, arranged in alphabetical order for each class of stock and showing the address of each such stockholder and the number of shares registered in his or her name, shall be open to the examination of any such stockholder for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting in the manner provided by law. The stock list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting as provided by law. This list shall

12



presumptively determine the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by each of them.

Attendance of a director at a 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 shall not constitute the presence of such director for the purposes of determining whether a quorum exists. The act of a majority of directors present at a meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board of Directors.

Except as otherwise provided by a Certificate of Designations, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors or any vacancies in the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office or other cause shall be filled solely by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors, or by the sole remaining director.

Certificates of stock shall be signed, countersigned and registered in such manner as the Board of Directors may by resolution prescribe, which resolution may permit all or any of the signatures on such certificates to be in facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate has ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the

18



corporation with the same effect as if he or she were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.
SECTION 5.2 Record Date . In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders, or to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may, except as otherwise required by law, fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors and which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting of stockholders, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the time for such other action as described above; provided, however, that if no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held, and, for determining stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of rights or to exercise any rights of change, conversion or exchange of stock or for any other purpose, the record date shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts a resolution relating thereto.
A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.
SECTION 5.3 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates . No certificate for shares of stock in the corporation or uncertificated shares of stock shall be issued in place of any certificate alleged to have been lost, destroyed or stolen, except on production of such evidence of such loss, destruction or theft and on delivery to the corporation of a bond of indemnity in such amount, upon such terms and secured by such surety, as the Board of Directors, or any financial officer of the corporation, may in its, or his or her, discretion require.
SECTION 5.4 Registered Stockholders . The corporation shall be entitled to treat the holder of record of any share or shares of stock as the holder in fact thereof and accordingly shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim or interest in such share on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, save as expressly provided by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

SECTION 6.1 Fiscal Year . The fiscal year of the corporation shall be as fixed by the Board of Directors.

SECTION 6.2 Dividends . The Board of Directors may from time to time declare, and the corporation may pay, dividends on its outstanding shares in the manner and upon the terms and conditions provided by law and the Certificate of Incorporation.
SECTION 6.3 Seal . The corporate seal shall have inscribed thereon the words “Corporate Seal,” the year of incorporation and around the margin thereof the words “Live Nation Entertainment, Inc.” The use of a seal or stamp by the corporation on corporate documents is not necessary and the lack thereof shall not in any way affect the legality of a corporate document.
SECTION 6.4 Facsimile Signatures . In addition to the provisions for use of facsimile signatures elsewhere specifically authorized in these Bylaws, facsimile signatures of any officer or officers of the corporation may be used whenever and as authorized by the Board of Directors or any committee thereof.

The Board of Directors, each committee thereof, each member of the Board of Directors and such committees and each officer of the corporation shall, in the performance of its, his or her duties, be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the books of account or other records of the corporation and upon such information, opinions, reports or documents presented to it or them by any of the corporation’s officers or employees, by any committee of the Board of Directors or by any other person as to matters that the Board, such committee, such member or such officer reasonably believes are within such other person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the corporation.
SECTION 6.6 Waiver of Notice . Whenever any notice is required to be given to any stockholder or director of the corporation under the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a waiver thereof in writing, signed by the person or persons entitled to such 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 the giving of such notice. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any annual or special meeting of the stockholders or the Board of Directors or committee thereof need be specified in any waiver of notice of such meeting. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a 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.
SECTION 6.7 Audits . The accounts, books and records of the corporation shall be audited upon the conclusion of each fiscal year by an independent certified public accountant selected by

the Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, and it shall be the duty of the Board of Directors, or such committee, to cause such audit to be done annually.
SECTION 6.8 Resignations . Any director or any officer, whether elected or appointed, may resign at any time by giving written notice of such resignation to the Chief Executive Officer or the Secretary, and such resignation shall be deemed to be effective as of the close of business on the date said notice is received by the Chief Executive Officer or the Secretary, or at such later time as is specified therein. No formal action shall be required of the Board of Directors or the stockholders to make any such resignation effective.
SECTION 6.9 Indemnification and Insurance .
(A) Each person who was or is made a party, or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved, in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative is or was a director or officer of the corporation or, while a director or officer of the corporation, is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans maintained or sponsored by the corporation, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the corporation to provide prior to such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith, and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that except as provided in paragraph (C) of this Section 6.9, the corporation shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section 6.9 shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition, such advances to be paid by the corporation within twenty (20) days after the receipt by the corporation of a statement or statements from the claimant requesting such advance or advances from time to time; provided, however, that if the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the corporation of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it

21



shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 6.9 or otherwise.
(B) To obtain indemnification under this Section 6.9, a claimant shall submit to the corporation a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to the claimant and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent the claimant is entitled to indemnification. Upon written request by a claimant for indemnification pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph (B), a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to the claimant’s entitlement thereto shall be made as follows: (1) if requested by the claimant, by Independent Counsel (as hereinafter defined), or (2) if no request is made by the claimant for a determination by Independent Counsel, (i) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting solely of Disinterested Directors (as hereinafter defined), or (ii) if a quorum of the Board of Directors consisting of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, such quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board of Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to the claimant, or (iii) if a quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by the stockholders of the corporation. In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel at the request of the claimant, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board of Directors unless there shall have occurred within two (2) years prior to the date of the commencement of the action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification is claimed a “Change in Control,” in which case the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the claimant unless the claimant shall request that such selection be made by the Board of Directors. If it is so determined that the claimant is entitled to indemnification, payment to the claimant shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination.
(C) If a claim under paragraph (A) of this Section 6.9 is not paid in full by the corporation within thirty (30) days after a written claim pursuant to paragraph (B) of this Section 6.9 has been received by the corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the corporation) that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct that makes it permissible under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware for the corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the corporation. Neither the failure of the corporation (including its Board of Directors, Independent Counsel or stockholders) to make a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including its Board of Directors, Independent Counsel or stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

22



(D) If a determination is made pursuant to paragraph (B) of this Section 6.9 that the claimant is entitled to indemnification, the corporation shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to paragraph (C) of this Section 6.9.
(E) The corporation shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to paragraph (C) of this Section 6.9 that the procedures and presumptions of this Section 6.9 are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in such proceeding that the corporation is bound by all the provisions of this Section 6.9.
(F) The right to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in this Section 6.9 shall not be exclusive of any other right that any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, any agreement or vote of stockholders or Disinterested Directors, or otherwise. No repeal or modification of this Section 6.9 shall in any way diminish or adversely affect the rights of any director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation hereunder in respect of any occurrence or matter arising prior to any such repeal or modification.
(G) The corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. To the extent that the corporation maintains any policy or policies providing such insurance, each such director or officer, and each such agent or employee to which rights to indemnification have been granted as provided in paragraph (H) of this Section 6.9, shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage thereunder for any such director, officer, employee or agent.
(H) The corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, grant rights to indemnification, and rights to be paid by the corporation the expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition, to any employee or agent of the corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Section 6.9 with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of the corporation.
(I) If any provision or provisions of this Section 6.9 shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (1) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Section 6.9 (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph of this Section 6.9 containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (2) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Section 6.9 (including, without limitation, each such portion of any paragraph of this Section 6.9 containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.
(J) For purposes of this Section 6.9:
(1) “Change in Control” means any of the following events:

23



(i) The acquisition in one or more transactions by any “Person” (as the term person is used for purposes of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act) of beneficial ownership of shares representing at least a majority of the total voting power of the Voting Stock; or
(ii) Consummation by the corporation, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, of (A) a merger or consolidation involving the corporation if the stockholders of the corporation immediately prior to such merger or consolidation do not own, directly or indirectly, immediately following such merger or consolidation, at least a majority of the total voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the entity resulting from such merger or consolidation or (B) a sale, conveyance, lease, license, exchange or transfer (for cash, shares of stock, securities or other consideration) of a majority or more of the assets or earning power of the corporation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a “Change in Control” shall not be deemed to occur solely because a majority or more of the total voting power of the Voting Stock is acquired by (a) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under one or more employee benefit plans maintained by the corporation or any of its subsidiaries or (b) any corporation that, immediately prior to such acquisition, is owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the corporation in the same proportion as their ownership of stock in the corporation immediately prior to such acquisition.
(2) “Disinterested Director” means a director of the corporation who is not and was not a party to the matter in respect of which indemnification is sought by the claimant.
(3) “Independent Counsel” means a law firm, a member of a law firm or an independent legal practitioner that is experienced in matters of corporation law and shall include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would not have a conflict of interest in representing either the corporation or the claimant in an action to determine the claimant’s rights under this Section 6.9.
(K) Any notice, request or other communication required or permitted to be given to the corporation under this Section 6.9 shall be in writing and either delivered in person or sent by telecopy, telex, telegram, overnight mail or courier service, or certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the Secretary and shall be effective only upon receipt by the Secretary.
SECTION 6.10 Forum for Adjudication of Disputes . Unless the corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivate action or proceeding brought on behalf of the corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the corporation to the corporation or the corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law or (iv) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine.
