Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On January 28, 2016, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Time Warner Inc. (the "Company") adopted amendments to the Company's By-laws (the "By-laws"), which became effective immediately, to implement proxy access. Article III, Section 15 of the By-laws permits a stockholder, or a group of up to 20 stockholders, who has owned 3% or more of the Company's outstanding common stock continuously for at least three years, to nominate and have included in the Company's annual meeting proxy materials director nominees constituting up to the greater of two individuals or 20% of the Board, provided that the stockholder(s) and nominees satisfy the requirements specified in Article III, Section 15.
The amendments to the By-laws also make changes to the advance notice provisions in Article III, Section 3 of the By-laws to work with the new proxy access provisions in Article III, Section 15 of the By-laws.
The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Company's By-laws, as amended through January 28, 2016, which are attached as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are hereby incorporated by reference.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
