Item 5.03.  Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

On June 4, 2021, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of SG Blocks, Inc. (the “Company”) amended and restated the Company’s bylaws (the “Bylaws”), effective immediately. The Bylaws include various technical, conforming, modernizing and clarifying changes, including the following new provisions:

 

Section 2.3 provides that, except as required by statute, special meetings of the stockholders may be called at any time only by (A) the direction of a majority of the Board, (B) the chairperson of the Board, (C) the chief executive officer or (D) the president (in the absence of a chief executive officer). A special meeting of the stockholders may not be called by any other person or persons.

 

Section 2.4 sets forth advance notice procedures for director nominations and other stockholder business. Stockholders seeking to nominate candidates for election as directors at or bring other business before an annual or special meeting of stockholders must provide timely notice thereof in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice generally will have to be delivered to and received at the Company’s principal executive offices before notice of the meeting is issued by the secretary of the Company, with such notice being served not less than 90 nor more than 120 days before the meeting.

 

Section 2.6 provides that the holders of one-third of the stock and entitled to vote, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings of the stockholders.

 

Section 2.9 provides that except as otherwise required by law, the Company’s certificate of incorporation or the Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Section 2.9 further provides that except as otherwise required by law, the articles of incorporation or the Bylaws, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

 

Section 2.10 provides that, subject to the rights of the holders of the shares of any series of preferred stock or any other class of stock or series thereof that have been expressly granted the right to take action by written consent, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Company must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be effected by any consent in writing by such stockholders.

 

Sections 8.1 and 8.2 set forth indemnity provisions in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law which provide for indemnification and advancement of expenses to present and former officers and directors.

 

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the Bylaws which are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
