MEMPHIS, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Board of Directors of FedEx Corporation (NYSE: FDX) will submit to shareowners a proposal to amend FedEx’s certificate of incorporation to allow holders of 20 percent or more of FedEx’s common stock to call a special meeting of shareowners, subject to certain customary conditions.
