COVID-19-Related Annual Meeting Exec Orders: Rhode Island

By Randi Morrison posted 04-13-2020 07:55 PM

  
A new Rhode Island Executive Order facilitates companies' notice of a change from a physical location to a virtual-only meeting by allowing notification to stockholders in a manner consistent with the SEC staff's recent guidance. As previously reported, in mid-March, the SEC staff issued guidance to help companies that are changing or contemplating changing their annual shareholder meeting date, location or format (to virtual-only or hybrid from in-person-only) to do so without incurring additional proxy mailing expenses, subject to applicable state laws and the company's organizational documents.
