Item 8.01.    OTHER EVENTS.

2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders

The Company has scheduled its next Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2020 Annual Meeting”) for July 28, 2020. The record date, time and location of the 2020 Annual Meeting will be set forth in the proxy statement for the 2020 Annual Meeting to be distributed to shareholders prior to the meeting.

Shareholder Proposal Deadline under Rule 14a-8

Because the scheduled date of the 2020 Annual Meeting is more than 30 days after the anniversary date of the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the deadline for shareholders to submit proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2020 Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as set forth in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, is no longer applicable. Pursuant to Rule 14a-5(f) under the Exchange Act, the Company is providing notice of the revised deadline for the submission of shareholder proposals in compliance with Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act in connection with the 2020 Annual Meeting. To be considered for inclusion in proxy materials for the 2020 Annual Meeting, shareholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act and intended to be presented at the 2020 Annual Meeting must be received by the Company’s Secretary, Chris Heaphy, at 200 East Long Lake Road, Suite 300, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan 48304-2324, no later than July 6, 2020. Any proposal received after such date will be considered untimely. All Rule 14a-8 proposals must be in compliance with applicable laws and regulations in order to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2020 Annual Meeting.
