Item 5.03

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

 

On October 29, 2020, the shareholders (the “Shareholders”) of Twin Disc, Incorporated (the “Company”) voted to approve an amendment (the “Articles of Amendment”) to the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation. The Articles of Amendment were effective as of the approval by the Shareholders.

 

The Articles of Amendment restated Article V of the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation. Prior to amendment, Article V of the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation read as follows:

 

 

The Board of Directors of this Corporation shall consist of such number of members as the By-Laws may provide, but not less than seven (7) members. Members of the Board of Directors shall have such qualifications and shall be elected in such manner, including division into classes for election, as may from time to time be provided by the By-Laws of this Corporation.

 

As revised, Article V of the Company’s Restated Articles of Incorporation reads as follows:

 

 

The Board of Directors of this Corporation shall consist of such number of Directors as shall be fixed from time to time solely by resolution of the Board of Directors, acting by the vote of not less than a majority of the Directors then in office. No decrease in the number of authorized Directors constituting the entire Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent Director. Members of the Board of Directors shall have such qualifications and shall be elected in such manner, including division into classes for election, as may from time to time be provided by the By-Laws of this Corporation.

 

A copy of the Articles of Amendment to the Restated Articles of Incorporation is attached as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The description of the Articles of Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 3.1.

 

Effective October 29, 2020, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) restated the Bylaws of the Company (the “Bylaws”). Consistent with the Articles of Amendment, the restated bylaws amended Article III, Section 2 of the Bylaws to provide that the number of directors serving on the Board shall be fixed from time to time by resolution of the Board. Prior to the Bylaws Amendment, the Bylaws required that the Board consist of no less than seven directors and no more than nine directors.

 

 

 

A copy of the restated Bylaws is attached as Exhibit 3.2 and incorporated herein by reference. The description of the amendment to the Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 3.2.
