Item 8.01 Other Matters
At its February 13, 2014 public meeting, the TVA Board of Directors (the “Board”) amended Section 1.7 of TVA’s Bylaws to replace an outdated reference to “Chairman of the governance committee” with “Chairman of the audit committee.”
The second sentence of Section 1.7 previously read as follows:
If the Chairman is unable to preside at a meeting of the Board, the Chairman shall designate a member of the Board to preside in his or her absence; provided that, in the absence of such a designation, the Chairman of the governance committee shall preside in the absence of the Chairman of the Board.
This sentence now reads as follows:
If the Chairman is unable to preside at a meeting of the Board, the Chairman shall designate a member of the Board to preside in his or her absence; provided that, in the absence of such a designation, the Chairman of the audit committee shall preside in the absence of the Chairman of the Board.
A copy of the Bylaws marked to reflect this amendment is filed as Exhibit 3.1.
