Genco Shipping amends poison pill to 10% trigger; grandfathers Diana Shipping
GENCO SHIPPING & TRADING LTD
- Acquiring Person threshold reduced to 10% (15% for 13G filers).
- Diana Shipping grandfathered at ~15% ownership; loses status if exceeds 15% or buys after a drop to 10%+.
- Board cites rapid accumulation by a competitor (Diana Shipping) as rationale.
- Amendment preserves existing rights plan structure; no other material changes.
