On October 29, 2007, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Sun Communities, Inc. (the “Company”), amended Article VII, Sections 1, 2 and 3 of the Company’s Bylaws to provide the Board with the authority to issue non-certificated shares of stock and to make other technical changes to ensure compliance with the NYSE rules. This summary of the amendments to the Company’s Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment to the Bylaws of Sun Communities, Inc. attached as Exhibit 3.1 to this report.
