On November 21, 2013, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of ON Semiconductor Corporation (the “Company”) amended and restated the Company’s Bylaws to:

 

    amend Section 2 of Article II to allow stockholders to call a special meeting at a threshold of 25% of the voting power of the outstanding capital stock of the Company and to provide other procedures and changes to the Bylaws related to the calling of such special meeting by stockholders; and

 

    make clarifications, updates and other, non-substantive changes to the Bylaws in Articles II, III, IV, V and VI.

This description of the amendments to the amended and restated Bylaws of the Company is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the amended and restated Bylaws filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this report.

    amend the Tenth Article of the Certificate of Incorporation to remove the prohibition on stockholders acting by written consent in lieu of a meeting.

It is expected that the above described revisions to the Certificate of Incorporation will be presented to the stockholders of the Company for approval at the Company’s next annual meeting of stockholders in 2014.
