Item 5.03 Amendment to Bylaws.

 

Effective July 29, 2014, the Board adopted the Amended and Restated Bylaws of Barfresh Food Group Inc. dated July 29, 2014 (“Amended Bylaws”). The Amended Bylaws amend and restate the Corporation’s original bylaws (“Original Bylaws”) in their entirety. As such, the following summary of changes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety to the text of the Amended Bylaws, attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1:

 

ARTICLE I. MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS.

 

The following provisions were added or changed:

 

  Special meetings of the stockholders for any purpose shall be held only when called by the Chief Executive Officer or a majority of the Board. Pursuant to the Original Bylaws, Stockholders holding ten percent (10%) of outstanding shares could direct the President to call special meetings of stockholders.
     
  Notice for both annual and special meetings of stockholders shall be delivered not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date set for the meeting.
     
  A majority of shares entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, constitutes a quorum at any meeting of stockholders. Pursuant to the Original Bylaws, one-third of the shares was sufficient to constitute a quorum.
     
  Sections 5, 6 and 7 were added detailing exclusive procedures for nominations of directors and submission of shareholder proposals, including a carve-out for any right of a stockholder to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

 
 

 

ARTICLE II DIRECTORS.

 

The following provisions were added:

 

  Whenever the authorized number of directors is increased between annual meetings of the stockholders, a majority of the directors then in office shall have the power to elect such new directors for the balance of a term and until their successors are elected and qualified.
     
  Any decrease in the authorized number of directors shall not become effective until the expiration of the term of the directors then in office unless, at the time of such decrease, there shall be vacancies on the board that are being eliminated by the decrease.
     
  In the event the office of any director becomes vacant for any reason, a majority of the directors remaining in office, although less than a quorum, may elect a successor for the unexpired term and until his or her successor is elected and qualified was adopted.
     
  The Board in its discretion may submit any act or contract for approval or ratification at any annual meeting of the stockholders, or at any special meeting of the stockholders called for the purpose of considering any such act or contract, and any act or contract that shall be approved or be ratified by the vote of the stockholders holding a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy at such meeting (provided that a quorum is present), shall be as valid and as binding upon the Corporation and upon all the stockholders as if it has been approved or ratified by every stockholder of the Corporation. In addition, any such act or contract may be approved or ratified by the written consent of stockholders holding a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote and such consent shall be as valid and as binding upon the Corporation and upon all the stockholders.
