This preliminary proxy statement outlines the proposals for Array Digital Infrastructure's upcoming annual meeting. The most significant item for shareholders is the proposed amendment to the company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation to exculpate officers from monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty of care. This change, permitted by recent Delaware law amendments, generally reduces accountability for officers, though companies argue it helps attract and retain qualified talent. Other proposals include the routine election of directors and ratification of the independent auditor, as well as an advisory vote on executive compensation. The filing also provides a summary of the company's 2025 transformation, including the previously announced sale of wireless operations and spectrum assets, which contributed to a return to profitability.
