Item 5.03.    Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On May 9, 2023, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (the “Company”) approved amendments to the Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), which became effective immediately upon adoption. The Board adopted the amendments in an effort to modernize the Bylaws and to comply with the universal proxy rules adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Among other things, the amendments to the Bylaws:
update the procedural mechanics and disclosure requirements for stockholder nominations of directors and submissions of proposals, including to address rules related to the use of universal proxy cards adopted by the SEC under Rule 14a-19 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934;
require notice of stockholder nominations of directors or business to be brought before an annual meeting to be delivered within a window of 120 days and 90 days prior to the anniversary date of the preceding year’s annual meeting (previously 90 days and 60 days); and
require stockholders soliciting proxies from other stockholders to use a proxy card color other than white.
The foregoing description of the amendments to the Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to, and should be read in conjunction with, the full text of the Bylaws, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by this reference.
