Accordingly, in order for a shareholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in our proxy materials for the Annual Meeting, the proposal must be received by our Corporate Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Company at 700 Canal St., Third Floor, Stamford, CT 06902, on or before 5:00 p.m. EST on January 27, 2017, and must comply with the procedures and requirements set forth in Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.
In accordance with the advance notice requirements contained in our amended and restated bylaws applicable for an annual meeting that is more than 30 days earlier than the anniversary date of the prior year’s annual meeting, for director nominations or other business to be brought before the Annual Meeting by a shareholder, other than Rule 14a-8 proposals described above, written notice must be delivered to our Corporate Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Company at 700 Canal St., Third Floor, Stamford, CT 06902, on or before 5:00 p.m. EST on April 16, 2017.
