ITEM 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal
Year.
On April 1, 2009, the Board of Directors of Pall Corporation (the
"Registrant") approved amendments to the Registrant's By-laws relating to
shareholder proposals for director nominations and other business to be properly
brought at an annual meeting of shareholders.
Specifically, the amendments to Section 2.07 clarify that the advance
notice provisions set forth in Section 2.07 apply whether or not the shareholder
proposals for director nomination or other business to be properly brought at an
annual meeting are proposed pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In addition, the amendments provide that a
shareholder must include the following information (in addition to the
information that was previously required) in his/her advance notice:
(a) information regarding any material interest of the shareholder (or
beneficial owner) in the director nomination or other business proposal; (b) a
description of all agreements, arrangements and understandings between the
shareholder, the beneficial owner and/or any director nominee (including their
respective affiliates or associates); and (c) an undertaking stating that the
shareholder will notify the Registrant in writing of any changes in the
information required to be included in the notice as of the meeting's record
date. These amendments are effective April 1, 2009.
The foregoing description of the amendments to the Registrant's By-laws is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the By-laws, a copy
of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3(ii) and incorporated herein by
