AI 繁中摘要

CoastalSouth Bancshares, Inc.（股票代碼：COSO）於2026年7月23日提交8-K表格，披露董事會已通過修訂公司章程（Bylaws），即時生效。主要變更包括兩項： 1. **獨家訴訟地點條款**：除非公司書面同意，所有「內部實體索賠」（定義見喬治亞州商業公司法，包括股東要求法院命令查閱公司紀錄等程序）必須在喬治亞州全州商業法院提起。此條款明確不適用於根據1933年證券法或1934年證券交易法提出的直接索賠。 2. **股東衍生訴訟持股門檻**：股東如要代表公司提起或維持衍生訴訟，必須在導致訴訟的行為或疏忽發生時，持有公司至少1%的已發行及流通在外股份，否則無訴訟資格。 這項修訂旨在集中管轄權、減少多重訴訟，並設定較高的股東代表門檻 🏛️。對投資者而言，潛在影響是限制了股東就公司內部事務（如查閱帳目、董事違責等）在聯邦法院或喬治亞州以外法院起訴的權利，同時要求衍生訴訟的原告須具備較大持股比例，可能增加小股東維權難度 📉。公司並未就此變更提供管理層展望，但此類章程修訂在美國上市公司中常見，主要為降低訴訟成本和防禦性訴訟風險。

 Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.
On July 23, 2026, the Board of Directors of CoastalSouth Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") approved an amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws, effective immediately, adding a new Article XII relating to exclusive forum and standing requirements for certain disputes.
The amendment provides that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Georgia State-wide Business Court will be the sole and exclusive forum for internal entity claims (as defined in the Georgia Business Corporation Code), including proceedings relating to the court-ordered inspection of corporate records by shareholders. The provision expressly does not apply to direct claims arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The amendment also establishes a minimum ownership requirement for shareholders seeking to commence or maintain a derivative proceeding on behalf of the Company. Under the amendment, a shareholder must have owned at least one percent (1%) of the Company's issued and outstanding shares at the time of the acts or omissions giving rise to the derivative proceeding in order to have standing to commence or maintain such action.
The foregoing description of the amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws, which is filed as Exhibit 3.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
