Item 8.01    Other Events.

 

Acxiom Corporation (the “Company”) is in the process of setting the date of its 2007 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2007 Annual Meeting”). It is expected that the date for the 2007 Annual Meeting will be greater than 30 days from the one-year anniversary of the date of the Company’s 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. As such, the Company has extended the deadline for the submission of stockholder proposals for the 2007 Annual Meeting. Stockholders who intend to present proposals at the 2007 Annual Meeting, and who wish to have those proposals included in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2007 Annual Meeting, must ensure that those proposals are received by the Corporate Secretary at 1 Information Way, Little Rock, Arkansas 72202 on or before November 6, 2007, which the Company has determined to be a reasonable time before it begins to print and mail its proxy materials. These proposals must meet the requirements set forth in the rules and regulations of the SEC in order to be eligible for inclusion in the proxy statement for the Company’s 2007 Annual meeting.

 

In addition, under the Company’s bylaws, stockholders who intend to submit a proposal regarding a director nomination or other matter of business at the 2007 Annual Meeting, and who do not intend to have these proposals included in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy relating to the 2007 Annual Meeting pursuant to SEC regulations, must ensure that notice of any such proposal (including certain additional information specified in the Company’s bylaws) is received by the Corporate Secretary at the address specified above on or before November 6, 2007. These proposals, and the additional information specified by the bylaws, must be submitted within this time period in order to be considered at the 2007 Annual Meeting.
