OKLAHOMA CITY - One of SandRidge Energy's largest shareholders called Wednesday for fellow investors to oust the company's directors and submitted its list of proposed directors.
TPG-Axon Capital Management LP is seeking to amend the company's bylaws and replace the current directors with a new slate of its choosing.
Officials of Oklahoma City-based SandRidge Energy Inc. declined to comment.
SandRidge last week said it set the consent date as Dec. 21 and that votes on the TPG-Axon proposal must be cast within 60 days. TPG-Axon on Monday filed suit in a Delaware Chancery Court challenging the date, saying the 60-day period should begin after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approves the paperwork it filed Wednesday.
