A proxy statement aims to give shareholders key company and executive information so they can make informed votes at shareholder meetings. Proxy statements ask shareholders to vote for such things as: Electing new board members. Approving the salaries of officers and other top directors.
A company's articles of association usually set out the format of the proxy form and the requirements for delivery to the directors. To validly appoint a proxy, the shareholder must send a 'proxy notice' to the director(s) at least 48 hours (two clear working days) before the relevant general meeting.
The notice must accompany, or the information in the notice must be incorporated into, the full set of proxy materials. The notice must be sent to shareholders at least 40 days prior to the shareholder meeting. The notice information is provided at the same time as the full set of proxy materials are delivered.
The information required in the proxy statement must include: (1) the identity of the late filer; (2) the number of late filings; (3) the number of transactions not reported on time; and (4) any known failure to file a required form. The solicitation of proxies section is required by Item 4 of Schedule 14A.
