Item 8.01.  Other Events.

 

2020 Annual Meeting Date

 

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Crawford United Corporation (the “Company”) has determined that the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2020 Annual Meeting”) will be held on June 30, 2020. Holders of record of the Company’s Class A and Class B common shares at the close of business on May 1, 2020 will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the meeting. Because the expected date of the 2020 Annual Meeting represents a change of more than 30 days from the anniversary of the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Company has set a new deadline for the receipt of shareholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2020 Annual Meeting.

 

Any shareholder proposal intended to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2020 Annual Meeting in accordance with Rule 14a-8 must be delivered to, or mailed to and received by, the Company’s Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices at 10514 Dupont Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44108 on or before the close of business on May 1, 2020. In addition to complying with this deadline, shareholder proposals intended to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2020 Annual Meeting must also comply with all applicable SEC rules.

 

In addition, the Company may use its discretion in voting shares by proxy with respect to matters proposed at the 2020 Annual Meeting that are not included in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2020 Annual Meeting, unless the Company receives notice of such matters prior to May 1, 2020.
