Item 8.01
|
Other Events.
|
|
The Board has established May 19, 2021 as the date of our 2021 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2021 Annual Meeting”). This date represents
a change of more than 30 days from the anniversary date of our 2020 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2020 Annual Meeting”). As a result, the deadlines for stockholder proposals set forth in our definitive proxy statement for the 2020
Annual Meeting are no longer effective.
Stockholder proposals intended for inclusion in our definitive proxy statement for the 2021 Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8, as well as
any stockholder proposals (other than director nominations) to be considered at the 2021 Annual Meeting, but not included in our proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8, must be received by March 17, 2021 (which we believe is a reasonable
time before we begin to print and send our proxy materials). The inclusion of any such stockholder proposals in our definitive proxy statement for the 2021 Annual Meeting will be subject to the requirements of the proxy rules adopted
under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including Rule 14a‑8. Under Rule 14a-4(c)(1) of the Exchange Act, the proxy holders designated by an executed proxy in the form accompanying our definitive proxy statement for the
2021 Annual Meeting will have discretionary authority to vote on any stockholder proposal that is not received on or prior to March 17, 2021.
Proxy access nominations for the 2021 Annual Meeting must be received by March 1, 2021. Proxy access nominations must meet all the requirements
set forth in our Fifth Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”).
A stockholder’s notice of director nominations to be considered at our 2021 Annual Meeting, but not included in our proxy materials, must be
received by March 1, 2021. Stockholder director nominations must meet all of the requirements set forth in our Bylaws.
Stockholder proposals (including proxy access nominations) should be addressed and sent to M. Paul Bunn, Executive Vice President, Chief
Financial Officer, and Secretary; Covenant Logistics Group, Inc.; 400 Birmingham Highway; Chattanooga, Tennessee 37419.
