12 U.S.C. § 75 — Legal holiday, annual meeting on; proceedings where no election held on proper day
submitted 67 years ago by Pub. L. 86-230 to r/title-12-BANKS-AND-BANKING · 132 words · no verdicts yet
If a bank's yearly shareholder meeting date falls on a legal holiday, the meeting and director election move to the next banking day. If the election still doesn't happen on time, it can be rescheduled within 60 days, set either by the board or by shareholders holding two-thirds of the shares, with at least 10 days' mailed notice.
When the day fixed in the bylaws for the regular annual meeting of the shareholders falls on a legal holiday in the State* in which the bank is located, the shareholders meeting shall be held, and the directors elected, on the next following banking day. If, from any cause, an election of directors is not made on the day fixed, or in the event of a legal holiday, on the next following banking day, an election may be held on any subsequent day within sixty days of the day fixed, to be designated by the board of directors, or, if the directors fail to fix the day, by shareholders representing two-thirds of the shares, at least ten days’ notice thereof in all cases having been given by first-class mail to the shareholders.
