The SEC approved amendments to the NYSE Listed Company Manual creating a uniform method for companies to provide notice of certain events and making other changes.
On January 11, 2013, the SEC issued an order approving amendments to the NYSE Listed Company Manual that, among other things:
  • Create a uniform method for listed companies to give the NYSE notice when required to do so under certain provisions of the Manual.
  • Reduce the number of copies of a proxy statement a listed company must submit to the NYSE from six to three.
