8x8 seeks court validation of charter amendments after 2012 proxy error; hearing April 4
8X8 INC /DE/
- Filed Section 205 application to validate 2012 amendment raising authorized shares from 100M to 200M.
- 2012 proxy mistakenly called vote 'non-routine'; under NYSE rules it was routine, potentially affecting vote outcome.
- Delaware Chancery Court sets expedited hearing for April 4, 2024 to consider validation.
- Application also seeks validation of 2022 amendment to 300M shares and all stock issuances in reliance.
- Failure to validate could affect over 18M shares issued beyond original 100M authorization.
