Teen retailer Aeropostale has adopted a majority voting standard for electing members to its board.

An uncontested director-nominee to the board of the New York-based apparel chain must now receive a majority of the votes cast, the company said in a regulatory filing.

In addition, an incumbent director who fails to receive a majority of the votes cast must “tender his or her resignation,” the filing said. The board will then have 90 days to decide if that person should continue to serve.

All director nominees were elected at the June 30 annual meeting — but the executive compensation plan was soundly defeated, according to the late Thursday filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Aeropostale shares closed unchanged on Thursday, at $3.46.
