On October 27, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board met to further discuss the timeline for adoption of its Exposure Draft of a proposed Statement, Contingencies (Topic 450), Disclosure of Certain Loss Contingencies. For an overview of this Exposure Draft and the events leading up to its issuance, please see our previous blog on this subject.
On October 18, 2010, the SEC released proposed rules on "Shareholder Approval of Executive Compensation and Golden Parachute Compensation" which address three separate shareholder votes mandated by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act for annual meetings of shareholders conducted on or after January 21, 2011.
Yesterday, the SEC decided to stay the effectiveness of the proxy access rules pending resolution of a petition for review filed in connection with this lawsuit filed by the Business Rountable and U.S. Chamber of Commerce. As a result, proxy access will not take effect in 2010 and its potential applicability to the 2011 proxy season is in limbo.
