standard (the plurality standard would continue to apply in
contested elections) and (ii) require that stockholder director
nominations include a written statement as to whether the nominee
intends to tender his or her irrevocable resignation upon his or
her election or re-election, which resignation will become
effective upon (x) such nominees failure to receive the requisite
number of votes for re-election at any future meeting at which
