Proportional Representation Clause Samples

The Proportional Representation clause establishes a system where parties or groups are allocated representation in proportion to their share of votes or contributions. In practice, this means that if a party receives a certain percentage of votes or input, they are granted a corresponding percentage of seats, decision-making power, or benefits. This approach ensures that minority groups or smaller parties receive fair representation relative to their support, preventing dominance by a single majority and promoting a more balanced and inclusive governance structure.

Proportional Representation. If at any time the Cummins Group Beneficially Owns shares of Filtration Common Stock representing, in the aggregate, less than a majority but at least 10% of the total voting power of the then outstanding Filtration Voting Stock, the number of persons Cummins shall be entitled to designate for nomination by the Filtration Board (or any nominating committee thereof) for election to the Filtration Board shall be equal to the number of directors computed using the following formula (rounded to the nearest whole number): the product of (i) the percentage of the total voting power of the then outstanding Filtration Voting Stock Beneficially Owned by the Cummins Group and (ii) the number of directors then on the Filtration Board (assuming no vacancies exist). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the calculation set forth in the foregoing sentence would result in Cummins being entitled to elect a majority of the members of the Filtration Board solely as a result of rounding, the formula will be recalculated with the product being rounded down to the nearest whole number; provided, however, that, if the Cummins Group, at any time, acquires additional shares of Filtration Common Stock such that the Cummins Group Beneficially Owns shares of Filtration Common Stock representing, in the aggregate, a majority of the total voting power of the then outstanding Filtration Voting Stock, then the number of persons Cummins shall be entitled to designate for nomination by the Filtration Board (or any nominating committee thereof) for election to the Filtration Board shall be adjusted upward, if appropriate as a result of rounding, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.3(d). If the number of Cummins Designees serving on the Filtration Board exceeds the number determined pursuant to the foregoing sentences of this Section 7.3(d) (such difference being herein called the “Excess Director Number”), then Cummins in its discretion shall instruct such Cummins Designees (the number of which designees shall be equal to the Excess Director Number) to promptly resign from the Filtration Board, and, to the extent such persons do not so resign, Cummins shall assist Filtration in increasing the size of the Filtration Board, so that after giving effect to such increase, the number of Cummins Designees on the Filtration Board is in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.3(d). Cummins, in its discretion, may determine to designate fewer than its maximum number of Cummins D...
