On February 3, 2009, the Board of Directors of Evercore Partners Inc. (the "Company") approved amendments to, and restated, the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Amended and Restated Bylaws"). The material changes effected by the adoption of the Amended and Restated Bylaws were to (i) expand the information required to be provided by any stockholder who proposes director nominations or any other business for consideration at a meeting of stockholders, including disclosure of hedging activity, and to require periodic updating of such information and (ii) update the advance notice provisions to ensure that such provisions are clear and unambiguous and that compliance with the notice procedures set forth in the Amended and Restated Bylaws is the exclusive means for a stockholder to make nominations or submit other business at a meeting of stockholders. The Amended and Restated Bylaws became effective on February 3, 2009.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits
A copy of the Amended and Restated Bylaws is attached as Exhibit 3.(ii) hereto and is hereby incorporated by reference.
