Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
The Securities and Exchange Commission approved an amendment to the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) rules that requires all securities listed on the NYSE on and after January 1, 2008 to be eligible for the Direct Registration System (“DRS”) and any issuer listed on the NYSE to maintain a transfer agent for its securities which is eligible either for DRS operated by the Depository Trust Company or another registered clearing agency. DRS enables a stockholder to have securities registered in his or her name without the issuance of a physical certificate and to electronically transfer his or her securities to a broker-dealer. Accordingly, on December 7, 2007, the Board of Directors of Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. (the “Company”) approved amendments to the Company’s bylaws that were necessary to comply with the amended NYSE rules, and as the result of the Company’s securities being registered on the books of its transfer agent in the name of its stockholders without the issuance of a physical certificate.
The above description of the amendment to the Company’s bylaws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the bylaws of Company, as amended and in effect on December 7, 2007, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.2 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
