Capital Bancorp adopts majority voting for directors, lowers amendment threshold from 2/3 to majority

In addition, effective May 22, 2023, the Board approved (i) conforming changes to our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws Amendment”) for the Director Election Voting Change, and (ii) a director resignation policy (the “Director Resignation Policy”).

At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Capital Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) held on May 18, 2023 (the “Annual Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders approved two proposals to amend (collectively, the “Amendments”) the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) to require (1) that directors be elected by a majority of votes cast in uncontested elections (but retaining a carve-out for plurality voting in contested elections where there are more nominees than seats) (“Director Election Voting Change”) and (2) the approval of holders of a majority, rather than two-thirds, of the Company’s shares for general amendments to the Articles.
