At the annual meeting of stockholders of Fluor Corporation (the “Company”) held on May 3, 2012 (the “Annual Meeting”), stockholders approved the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) to grant holders of at least 25% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock the right to call a special meeting of stockholders, subject to certain limitations and procedures in the Company’s bylaws.  The Certificate was filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on May 3, 2012, becoming effective on such date. Additional information concerning the Certificate was contained in the Company’s 2012 proxy statement, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2012 (the “2012 Proxy Statement”). A copy of the Certificate is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1.

 

In connection with the approval of the Certificate, the Board of Directors adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws as of May 3, 2012 (the “Bylaws”) to establish procedural requirements and limitations in order for stockholders to call a special meeting.  Additional information concerning the Bylaws was contained in the 2012 Proxy Statement. A copy of the Bylaws is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Certificate and the Bylaws are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate and the Bylaws filed herewith.
