Item  5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

At the annual meeting of shareholders of Amerigon Incorporated (the “Company”) held on June 24, 2011 (the “2011 Annual Meeting”), the shareholders approved the Amerigon Incorporated 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for the award to key employees, outside directors, consultants and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance-based shares and other awards which are denominated or payable in, valued by reference to, or otherwise based on our common stock. The Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).

The Plan is effective as of March 22, 2011, the date the Board approved the Plan, and may be terminated or, subject to certain provisions of the Plan, amended at any time by the Board. Unless sooner terminated by the Board, the Plan will terminate on March 22, 2021. Subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the Plan, awards may be granted for a maximum of 850,000 shares of our common stock during its term. Of this amount, the maximum number that may be issued in the form of “full value awards” is limited to 50,000 shares. The Plan prohibits amending the terms of outstanding awards to reduce the exercise price of outstanding stock options or stock appreciation rights or to cancel outstanding stock options or stock appreciation rights in exchange for cash, other awards or stock options or stock appreciation rights with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original stock options or stock appreciation rights without shareholder approval.

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan, which is listed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

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

At the 2011 Annual Meeting, the shareholders also approved an amendment to Article III, Section A of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”) to increase the authorized number of shares of the Company’s common stock from 30,000,000 to 55,000,000. The Company filed the Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation reflecting this modification with the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs Bureau of Commercial Services on June 29, 2011 (the “Amendment”).

The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. Set forth below is the amended text marked to show the changes made to Article III, Section A of the previous version of the Articles:

“The total number of shares which the corporation is authorized to issue is 35,000,00060,000,000, of which 30,000,000 55,000,000 shall be Common Stock, without par value, and 5,000,000 shall be Preferred Stock, without par value.”
