Princeton Bancorp commits to amend articles to preserve shareholder rights in holding company reorganization
Princeton Bancorp, Inc.
- Company will allow shareholders with 20% of votes to call special meetings, reduce bylaw amendment vote to majority, and eliminate supermajority exceptions for articles amendments.
- Proxy advisor criticized reorganization for raising shareholder vote thresholds to two-thirds and removing special meeting rights; company says it will address majority of concerns.
- Two-thirds vote to amend bank's charter is a New Jersey statutory requirement that cannot be changed by the board.
- Proxy advisor recommended withholding votes for governance committee members due to supermajority vote; company argues it is statutory and will be eliminated post-reorganization.
- One director attended 100% of board and ALCO meetings but only 46% of Loan Committee meetings; company urges support for all nominees.
