Item 5.03 | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year. |
On October 19, 2021, the board of directors of AYRO, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the second amendment to the amended and restated bylaws (the “Second Amendment”), which will be effective as of October 19, 2021. The Second Amendment amends and restates Article II, Section 2.6 of the Company’s existing amended and restated bylaws in its entirety to lower the number of holders of the shares entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders constituting a quorum, in person or by proxy, from a majority to one-third. Specifically, the restated Section 2.6 states that “The holders of one-third of the voting power of the stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders, unless otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or the rules and regulations of any applicable stock exchange. Where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series is required, the holders of one-third of the voting power of the then-issued and outstanding shares of such class or series or classes or series, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter, except as otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or the rules and regulations of any applicable stock exchange.” The previous Section 2.6 stated, in its relevant section, that “The holders of a majority of the voting power of the stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders, unless otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or the rules and regulations of any applicable stock exchange. Where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series is required, a majority of the voting power of the then-issued and outstanding shares of such class or series or classes or series, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter, except as otherwise required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or the rules and regulations of any applicable stock exchange.”
The foregoing description of the Second Amendment is qualified by reference to the Second Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
