Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
The Board of Directors of Golfsmith International Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") amended Article VI of the Company's Amended and Restated By-laws (the "By-laws"), effective as of October 30, 2007, to allow for the issuance of uncertificated shares. By being able to issue uncertificated shares, the Company may now participate in the Direct Registration System, which is currently administered by the Company’s transfer agent, National City Investments. The Direct Registration System allows investors to have securities registered in their names without the issuance of physical certificates and allows investors to electronically transfer securities to broker-dealers in order to effect transactions without the risks and delays associated with transferring physical certificates. The amendment to the By-laws also provides that each registered stockholder shall continue to be entitled to a stock certificate upon written request to the transfer agent or registrar of the Company.
The full text of the Amended and Restated By-laws, as amended, is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report, and amended Article VI thereof is incorporated herein by reference.
