Item 1. Description of Registrant's Securities to be Registered
Common Stock
The holders of Common Stock are entitled to cast one vote for each share of
record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders, including the election of
directors. The Company's Articles (and Bylaws) provide for a classified Board of
Directors with three classes serving staggered three year terms so that
approximately one-third of the directors will be elected at each annual meeting.
Subject to payment or provision for full cumulative dividends in respect of any
outstanding shares of preferred stocks, the holders of Common Stock are entitled
to receive dividends when and if declared by the Board of Directors out of
legally available funds. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of the affairs of the Company, the holders of the Common Stock are entitled to
share ratably in all remaining assets which are available for distribution to
them after the payment of liabilities and after provision has been made for each
class of stock, if any, having preference over the Common Stock. No holder of
any share of Common Stock or any other security of the Company, either now or
hereafter authorized or issued, shall have any preferential or preemptive right
to acquire additional shares of Common Stock or any other security of the
Company other than such, if any, as the Board of Directors may in its discretion
from time to time determine.
