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

On March 27, 2020, the board of directors (the “Board”) of Bel Fuse Inc. (the “Company”) amended the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws (as amended, the “By-Laws”) to expressly permit, to the extent provided by law, the Company to hold meetings of the Company’s shareholders in part or solely by means of remote communication, effective immediately. The amendments to the By-Laws also permit the Company, upon authorization of the Board, to postpone, reschedule or cancel any meeting of the Company’s shareholders previously scheduled by the Board.

The intent of the amendments to the By-Laws is to afford the Company with additional flexibility in connection with the means of conducting shareholders meetings and implementing any adjournments and/or postponements thereof to accommodate changing circumstances. At present, the Company expects to hold its annual meeting of shareholders in person in May 2020. However, given current circumstances, the Board determined that it would be prudent to authorize conducting the meeting by remote communications should that become a necessity.

The foregoing description of the amendments to the By-Laws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the By-Laws, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.

(d) Exhibits.

Exhibit 3.1 – Amended and Restated By-Laws of Bel Fuse Inc. (Adopted March 27, 2020).
