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

On April 5, 2017, TASER International, Inc. (the “Company”) filed an amendment to its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to change its name to Axon Enterprise, Inc. (the “Certificate of Amendment”). The name change was made pursuant to Section 242 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and was effective as of April 5, 2017. Under the DGCL, the amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation did not require stockholder approval to effect the name change. In addition, effective as of April 5, 2017, the amended and restated bylaws of the Company will also be amended and restated to reflect the name change to Axon Enterprise, Inc. (the “Amendment to Bylaws”).

The name change does not affect the rights of the Company’s security holders. There were no other changes to the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws in connection with the name change.

The Company anticipates that on April 5, 2017, the Company’s common stock, which trades on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange, will cease trading under the ticker symbol “TASR” and will commence trading under the ticker symbol “AAXN”. Along with the ticker change, the Company’s common stock has been assigned a new CUSIP number of 05464C 1010.

A copy of the Certificate of Amendment effecting the name change, as filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on April 5, 2017, is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the Amendment to Bylaws is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.2 and is incorporated by reference. A copy of the press release issued by the Company on April 5, 2017 announcing the name change has been filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
