ITEM 5.03.   AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR.

 

On March 8, 2007, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Monster Worldwide, Inc. (the “Company”) amended Article III of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) to provide that the number of directors comprising the Board shall not be less than three and not more than twelve.  Previously, the Company’s Bylaws provided that the number of directors comprising the Board shall not be less than one and not more than nine. A copy of the Bylaws incorporating this change was filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 7, 2007.

 

On December 12, 2007, the Board amended Article VI of the Company’s Bylaws to clarify the authority to issue uncertificated shares of the Company’s stock and the procedures relating to the transfer of shares of the Company’s common stock.  The ability to issue uncertificated shares allows the Company’s securities to be eligible for a direct registration system (“DRS”) as required by the Nasdaq Stock Market.   The DRS will allow the Company’s stockholders to register shares of the Company’s common stock in their names without the issuance of physical certificates and will give the Company’s stockholders the ability to electronically transfer shares to brokers.  A copy of the Bylaws incorporating this change is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
