This excerpt taken from the SMG DEF 14A filed Dec 20, 2006. SHAREHOLDER
PROPOSALS FOR 2008 ANNUAL MEETING
Proposals of shareholders intended to be presented at the 2008
Annual Meeting of Shareholders must be received by the Corporate
Secretary of the Company no later than August 22, 2007, to
be eligible for inclusion in the Company’s proxy, notice of
meeting and proxy statement relating to the 2008 Annual Meeting.
The Company will not be required to include in its proxy, notice
of meeting or proxy statement a shareholder proposal that is
received after that date or that otherwise fails to meet the
requirements for shareholder proposals established by applicable
SEC Rules.
The SEC has promulgated rules relating to the exercise of
discretionary voting authority pursuant to proxies solicited by
the Board of Directors. If a shareholder intends to present a
proposal at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders without the
inclusion of that proposal in the Company’s proxy materials
and written notice of the proposal is not received by the
Corporate Secretary of the Company by November 5, 2007, or
if the Company meets other requirements of the SEC Rules, the
proxies solicited by the Board of Directors for use at the 2008
Annual Meeting will confer discretionary authority to vote on
the proposal at the 2008 Annual Meeting.
In each case, written notice must be given to the Company’s
Corporate Secretary, at the following address: The Scotts
Miracle-Gro Company, 14111 Scottslawn Road, Marysville, Ohio
43041, Attn: Corporate Secretary.
