Item 5.03

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

Amendment and Restatement of Bylaws

On July 11, 2023, pursuant to the power granted by the certificate of incorporation as permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), the board of directors (the “Board”) of SigmaTron International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), approved the amendment and restatement of the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated By-Laws attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 3.1 (the “New Bylaws”), effective as of July 31, 2023. The following is a summary of the material amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws effected by the New Bylaws:

 

   

amend certain provisions to align them with and conform them to amendments to the DGCL that have been effected since the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws were last materially amended, including, without limitation, to:

 

   

clarify that the Company may hold meetings of its stockholders by means of remote communications as permitted by Section 211 of the DGCL;

 

   

align the requirements for waivers of notice of meetings of the Board and stockholders to Section 229 of the DGCL;

 

   

clarify the ability of the person presiding over a meeting of the Company’s stockholders to prescribe rules and regulations for the conduct of such meeting;

 

   

permit stockholder and Board action by consent in lieu of a meeting to be taken by “electronic transmission” in addition to by “writing” as permitted by the DGCL; and

 

   

permit notice to stockholders and directors to be given by “electronic transmission” in addition to by “writing” to the extent and as permitted by the DGCL;

 

   

include a “forum selection” clause to require (i) Delaware corporate law related claims to be adjudicated by the Delaware Court of Chancery as permitted by Section 115 of the DGCL and (ii) actions asserting a cause of action under the Securities Act of 1933 to be adjudicated by the federal district court in the State of Delaware;

 

   

amend the provisions governing procedural and notice requirements for stockholders proposing to nominate individuals for election as directors or propose other business to be conducted (other than proposals to be included in the Company’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) at annual meetings of stockholders or to nominate individuals for election as directors at special meetings of stockholders at which one or more directors are to be elected pursuant to the Company’s notice of such meeting, including, without limitation, to:

 

   

modify the deadlines for (i) stockholder nominations of individuals for election as directors at any annual meeting of stockholders or any special meeting of stockholders at which one or more directors are to be elected pursuant to the Company’s notice of such meeting or (ii) stockholder proposals of other business to be conducted at any annual meeting of stockholders, in each case, to align with the deadlines that are most prevalent among public companies;

 

   

modify the notice requirements for stockholder nominations of individuals for election as directors to align with Rule 14a-19 (i.e., the “Universal proxy card rules”);

 

   

modify the notice requirements for stockholder nominations of individuals for election as directors and stockholder proposals of other business to require notification of intent to solicit proxies or deliver a proxy statement; and

 

   

clarify that a failure to comply with such notice and procedural requirements, including failing to appear at the meeting to present such nomination or business, will result in a stockholder’s nomination or proposal of other business being disregarded;

 

   

amend the provisions governing the Board to:

 

   

permit solely the Board to fill vacancies and newly created directorships on the Board;

 

   

permit solely the Board to fix the time and place of the first meeting of the Board following an annual meeting of stockholders; and

 

   

permit solely the Board to fix the number of directors constituting the Board;

 

   

amend the provisions governing meetings of stockholders to clarify that annual and special meetings of stockholders may be postponed by action of the Board at any time in advance of such meetings; and


   

amend the provisions governing indemnification and advancement of litigation expenses to require the Company to indemnify and advance the relevant litigation expenses solely to present and former directors and officers (and not also employees and agents as provided in the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws).

The foregoing description of the amendments effected by the New Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the New Bylaws attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit 3.1.

Restatement of Certificate of Incorporation

On July 11, 2023, the Board approved a restatement (the “Restatement”) of the Company’s certificate of incorporation (“Charter”) to restate and integrate (but not further amend) previously adopted amendments to the Charter and omit the provisions of the Company’s original certificate of incorporation naming the incorporator and the initial board of directors. The Restatement was filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on July 13, 2023.

The foregoing description of the Restatement is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Restatement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors at a meeting of stockholders may be made solely (i) by or at the direction of the board of directors, (ii) pursuant to the corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) (provided, however, that reference in the corporation’s notice of meeting to the election of directors or the election of members of the board of directors shall not include or be deemed to include nominations) or (iii) by any stockholder of the corporation who is a stockholder of record of the corporation at the time the notice provided for in this Section 2.3 is delivered as provided in this Section 2.3, who is entitled to vote for the election of directors at such meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Article II, Section 2.3. Such nominations made by a stockholder pursuant to clause (iii) of the preceding sentence shall be made pursuant to timely written notice to the secretary of the corporation.

The corporation may require any person named in a stockholder’s notice pursuant to this Section 2.3 to furnish a completed and executed questionnaire or such other information as it may reasonably require to determine the eligibility of such person to serve as a director of the corporation. No person shall be eligible to serve as a director of the corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of such stockholder) does not appear at the relevant annual meeting of stockholders or the relevant special meeting of stockholders, as applicable, to present a nomination, such nomination shall be disregarded notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such nominee may have been received by the corporation. The board of directors or the presiding officer shall, if the facts so warrant, determine and declare to the relevant annual meeting of stockholders or the relevant special meeting of stockholders, as applicable, that a nomination was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the by-laws, and the defective nomination shall be disregarded notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such nominee may have been received by the corporation. For purposes of these by-laws, “publicly disclosed” or “public disclosure” shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press, or a comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Nothing in this Section 2.3 shall be deemed to affect any rights or obligations, if any, of stockholders (i) with respect to inclusion of proposals in the corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 (or any successor thereto) promulgated under the Exchange Act (“Rule 14a-8”) or (ii) with respect to the inclusion of a nominee in a universal proxy card pursuant to Rule 14a-19 (or any successor thereto) promulgated under the Exchange Act. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual or special meeting of stockholders commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described in this Section 2.3.

SECTION 2.4. NOTICE OF BUSINESS. At an annual meeting of the stockholders (hereinafter referred to in this Section 2.4 as the “relevant annual meeting of stockholders”), only such business (other than nominations for election of persons to the board of directors, which shall be governed by Section 2.3) (such business is hereinafter referred to in this Section 2.4 as

 

3


“business”) shall be conducted as shall have been brought before the relevant annual meeting of stockholders (i) by or at the direction of the board of directors, (ii) pursuant to the corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) or (iii) by any stockholder of the corporation who is a stockholder of record of the corporation at the time the notice provided for in this Section 2.4 is delivered as provided in this Section 2.4, who is entitled to vote at the relevant annual meeting of stockholders and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Article II, Section 2.4. Such business brought by a stockholder pursuant to clause (iii) of the preceding sentence shall be made pursuant to timely written notice to the secretary of the corporation. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to, or mailed and received by, the secretary of the corporation at the principal executive office of the corporation, no later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders (provided, however, that in the event that the date of the relevant annual meeting of stockholders is more than thirty (30) days before or more than seventy (70) days after the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders, a stockholders’ notice must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to the relevant annual meeting of stockholders and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90th) day prior to the relevant annual meeting of stockholders or the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the relevant annual meeting of stockholders is first made by the corporation). The stockholder’s notice to the secretary shall set forth (A) as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the relevant annual meeting of stockholders, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the relevant annual meeting of stockholders, the text of such proposed business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and, in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend the by-laws of the corporation, the language of the proposed amendment) and the reasons for conducting such business at the relevant annual meeting of stockholders, (B) the name and address, as they appear on the corporation’s books, of the stockholder proposing such business and the name and address of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, (C) the class, series and number of shares of the corporation which are owned of record or are beneficially owned by such stockholder and the class, series and number of shares of the corporation which are beneficially owned by such beneficial owner, if any, (D) any material interest in such business of such stockholder and of the beneficial owner, if any, (E) a description of all arrangements or understandings between such stockholder and/or beneficial owner, if any, and any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business and any other material interest of such stockholder or such beneficial owner in such business, (F) a representation that such stockholder (or a qualified representative of such stockholder) intends to appear in person or by proxy at the relevant annual meeting of stockholders to bring such business before the relevant annual meeting of stockholders and (G) a representation whether such stockholder or such beneficial owner, if any, intends to or is part of a group which intends to (x) deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the corporation’s outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt such business and/or (y) otherwise solicit proxies from stockholders of the corporation in support of such business. No business shall be conducted at an annual meeting of the stockholders unless brought before the relevant annual meeting of stockholders in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4, if the stockholder (or a qualified representative of such stockholder) does not appear at the relevant annual meeting of stockholders

 

4


to present such business, such business shall be disregarded notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such business may have been received by the corporation. The board of directors or the presiding officer shall, if the facts so warrant, determine and declare to the relevant annual meeting of stockholders that a proposal was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the by-laws, and the defective proposal shall be disregarded notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such business may have been received by the corporation. Whether or not the foregoing procedures are followed, no matter which is not a proper matter for stockholder consideration shall be brought before any annual meeting of stockholders. Nothing in this Section 2.4 shall be deemed to affect any rights or obligations, if any, of stockholders with respect to inclusion of proposals in the corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting of stockholders commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described in this Section 2.4.

Section 2.5. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the stockholders for any purpose or purposes, unless otherwise prescribed by the DGCL or by the Certificate of Incorporation, may be called at any time, but solely and exclusively by the chairman of the board, chief executive officer, president or the directors entitled to cast a majority of the votes of the whole board of directors. Except as provided in the foregoing sentence, special meetings of stockholders may not be called by any other person or persons. Any special meeting of stockholders may be postponed by the board of directors or by the persons calling such meeting (if other than the board of directors) at any time in advance of such meeting.

SECTION 2.6. NOTICE OF SPECIAL MEETINGS. Notice of a special meeting shall be given that shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, if such date is different from the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, and the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise required by the DGCL or the Certificate of Incorporation, the notice of any special meeting shall be given to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice.

SECTION 2.7. RECORD DATE. In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or to consent to corporate action without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors, and which record date shall be (i) in the case of a determination of stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, unless otherwise required by applicable law, not more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, and, unless the board of directors determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date

 

5


of such meeting shall be the date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of such meeting shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, (ii) in the case of a determination of the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action without a meeting, not more than ten (10) days from the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors, and (iii) in the case of any other action, not more than sixty (60) days prior to such other action. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of such meeting; provided, however, that the board of directors may fix a new record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for the stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.7 at the adjourned meeting.

SECTION 2.8. LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS ENTITLED TO VOTE. The corporation shall prepare, no later than the tenth (10th) day before each meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder; provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the meeting date, such list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth (10th) day before the meeting date. Nothing contained in this section shall require the corporation to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of ten (10) days ending on the day before the meeting date: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours at the principal place of business of the corporation. In the event that the corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the corporation.

SECTION 2.9. STOCK LEDGER. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, the stock ledger of the corporation shall be the only conclusive evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list required by Section 2.8. of this Article II, or to vote in person or by proxy at a meeting of stockholders.

SECTION 2.10. QUORUM. At any meeting of the stockholders of the corporation, the holders of such number of the shares of issued and outstanding stock as are entitled to cast a majority of the votes thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by the DGCL or by the Certificate of Incorporation. If, however, such quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the stockholders, entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, by majority vote shall have power to adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum shall be present or represented. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place (including an adjournment taken to address a technical failure to convene or continue a meeting using remote communication), notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which

 

6


stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are (i) announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, (ii) displayed, during the time scheduled for the meeting, on the same electronic network used to enable stockholders and proxy holders to participate in the meeting by means of remote communication or (iii) set forth in the notice of meeting given in accordance with these by-laws. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the board of directors shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting in accordance with Section 2.7, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

SECTION 2.11. VOTING. Unless otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, each stockholder shall at every meeting of the stockholders be entitled to vote in person or by proxy for each share of the capital stock having voting power held by such stockholder. When a quorum is present at any meeting, a majority of the votes cast by holders of stock having voting power present in person or represented by proxy shall decide any question (other than election of directors) brought before such meeting, unless the question is one upon which by express provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the corporation or its securities, a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question. Unless otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

SECTION 2.12. PROXY. Every stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporation action without a meeting may authorize another person or person to act for such stockholder by proxy by a document or by an electronic transmission or by other means permitted by applicable law, but no proxy shall be voted on after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable reproduction of the document (including any electronic transmission) created pursuant to this paragraph may be substituted or used in lieu of the original document for any and all purposes for which the original document could be used; provided that, such copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original document. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the secretary of the corporation. All voting, excepting where otherwise required by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or the board of directors may be by a voice vote.

SECTION 2.13. CHAIRMAN OF MEETING. The chairman of the board shall preside at all meetings of the stockholders. In the inability or refusal to act of the chairman, the vice chairman, the chief executive officer or the Lead Director, if any, or other director as determined by the board of directors (in that order) shall preside, and in their inability or refusal to act another person designated by the board of directors shall preside. The secretary of the corporation shall act as secretary of each meeting of the stockholders. In the event of his inability or refusal to act, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint a person who need not be a stockholder to act as secretary of the meeting.

SECTION 2.14. CONDUCT OF MEETINGS.

DIRECTORS

SECTION 3.1. DUTIES OF DIRECTORS. The business of the corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of its board of directors which may exercise all such powers of the corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these by-laws directed or required to be exercised or done by the stockholders.

SECTION 3.2. NUMBER OF DIRECTORS. The number of directors which shall constitute the whole board of directors shall be not less than three nor more than eleven.

Any director or the entire board of directors may be removed, with cause, by the vote of the holders of at least a majority of shares of stock then entitled to vote at an election of directors. Whenever the holders of shares of any class or series of stock are entitled to elect one or more directors by the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, the provisions of the preceding sentence shall apply, in respect to the removal with or without cause of a director or directors so elected, to the vote of the holders of the outstanding shares of that class or series of stock and not to the vote of the holders of the outstanding shares of stock as a whole. Unless otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number

 

9


of directors shall be filled by the vote of a majority of the directors then in office provided that a quorum is present, and any other vacancy occurring in the board of directors shall be filled solely and exclusively by a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, provided, however, that as nearly as may be possible, an equal number of directors of each class of directors shall be maintained. Any director elected to fill a vacancy not resulting from an increase in the number of directors shall have the same remaining term as that of his or her predecessor.

SECTION 3.4. SPECIAL VOTING RIGHTS OF STOCKHOLDERS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever the holders of any one or more classes or series of preferred stock issued by the corporation in accordance with the corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation shall have the right, voting separately by class or series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, the election, term of office, filling of vacancies and other features of such directorship shall be governed by the resolutions of the board of directors applicable to such series of preferred stock.

SECTION 3.9. QUORUM. At all meetings of the board of directors a majority of the then duly elected directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the act of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the board of directors, except as may be otherwise specifically provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation.

COMMITTEES OF DIRECTORS

SECTION 3.12. GENERAL. The board of directors may, by resolution or resolutions passed by a majority of the whole board, designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the corporation.

In the absence or disqualification of any member of such committee or committees, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not he or they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the board of directors to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member.

Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the board of directors, or in these by-laws, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the board of directors in the management of the business and affairs of the corporation, and may authorize the seal of the corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; but no such committee shall have the power or authority in reference to amending the Certificate of Incorporation, adopting an agreement of merger or consolidation, recommending to the stockholders the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the corporation’s property and assets, recommending to the stockholders a dissolution of the corporation or a revocation of a dissolution, or amending the by-laws of the corporation; and, unless the resolution, these by-laws, or the Certificate of Incorporation expressly so provide, no such committee shall have the power or authority to declare a dividend or to authorize the issuance of stock, or to adopt a certificate of ownership and merger.

Adequate provision shall be made for notice to members of all meetings; a majority of the members shall constitute a quorum unless the committee shall consist of one or two members, in which event one member shall constitute a

 

11


quorum; and all matters shall be determined by a majority vote of the members present. Action may be taken by any committee without a meeting if all members thereof consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission and the consent or consents are filed with the minutes of the proceedings of such committee. Members of any committee of the board of the directors may participate in any meeting of such committee by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating may hear each other, and participation in a meeting by such means shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

SECTION 3.14. GENERAL. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these by-laws, the board of directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation of directors. The directors may be paid their expenses, if any, for attendance at each meeting of the board of directors. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members of special or standing committees may be allowed like compensation for attending committee meetings.

The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

SECTION 8.2. POWER TO INDEMNIFY IN ACTIONS, SUITS OR PROCEEDINGS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION.

SECTION 8.3. INDEMNIFICATION AGAINST EXPENSES.

Any indemnification pursuant to Sections 8.1 and 8.2 of Article VIII (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 of Article VIII.

SECTION 8.5. EXPENSES PAYABLE IN ADVANCE. Expenses (including attorney’s fees) incurred by a director, officer, in defending a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer, incorporator, employee or agent to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this Article VIII.

SECTION 8.6. NON-EXCLUSIVITY OR INDEMNIFICATION AND ADVANCEMENT OF EXPENSES.

SECTION 8.7. INSURANCE. The corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, incorporator, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Article VIII.

ARTICLE X

FORUM FOR ADJUDICATION OF DISPUTES

SECTION 10.1 DELAWARE COURTS. Unless the corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or employee of the corporation to the corporation or the corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any civil action to interpret, apply or enforce any provision of the DGCL, (iv) any civil action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of these by-laws or (v) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine; provided, however, that in the event that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware lacks jurisdiction over any such action, the sole and exclusive forum for such action shall be another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, in all cases, subject to such court having personal jurisdiction over indispensable parties named as defendants. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.1 shall not apply to the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any action asserting claims under the Exchange Act.

SECTION 10.2 FEDERAL COURTS. Unless the corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be the sole and exclusive forum for any complaint asserting a cause of action under the Securities Act. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.2 shall not apply to any action asserting claims under the Exchange Act.

SECTION 10.3 APPLICATION. Failure to enforce the foregoing provisions of this Article X would cause the corporation irreparable harm and the corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, to enforce such provisions. Any person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article X. For avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.3 shall not apply to any action asserting claims under the Exchange Act.

20


notice of such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption of new by-laws is contained in the notice of such special meeting.

Exhibit 3.2

RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

OF

SIGMATRON INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Pursuant to Section 245 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware

SigmaTron International, Inc. (the “Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, does hereby certify as follows:

A.    The present name of the Corporation is “SigmaTron International, Inc.”;

B.    The Corporation was incorporated under the name “SigmaTron International, Inc.” by the filing of its original certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on November 16, 1993;

C.    This Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, which merely restates and integrates, but does not further amend the provisions of the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation, as theretofore amended or supplemented (and there is no discrepancy between such provisions and the provisions of the restated certificate of incorporation effected hereby), was duly adopted by the board of directors of the Corporation without a vote of the stockholders of the corporation in accordance with the provisions of Section 245 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware; and

D.    The certificate of incorporation of the Corporation is hereby restated to read in its entirety as follows:

FIRST: The name of the Corporation is SigmaTron International, Inc.

SECOND: The registered office of the Corporation is to be located at 1209 Orange Street, in the City of Wilmington in the County of New Castle, in the State of Delaware, 19801. The name of its registered agent at that address is CorpDirect Agents, Inc.

THIRD: The purpose of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which a corporation may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

FOURTH: The total number of shares of stock of all classes which the Corporation is authorized to issue is Twelve Million Five Hundred Thousand (12,500,000) of which Twelve Million (12,000,000) shares shall be classified as common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”) and Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) shares shall be classified as preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”). The Preferred Stock shall be issuable in series with such designations, relative rights, preferences and liabilities as may be fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors.

 

1


The designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of the Preferred Stock (unless otherwise fixed by the Board of Directors) and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, are as follows:

(a)    The shares of Preferred Stock may be divided into and issued in one or more series, and each series shall be so designated so as to distinguish the shares thereof from the shares of all other series. All shares of Preferred Stock shall be identical except in respect of particulars which may be fixed by the Board of Directors. Each share of a series shall be identical in all respects with all other shares of such series, except as to the date from which dividends thereon shall be cumulative on any series as to which dividends are cumulative. Shares of Preferred Stock of any series which have been retired in any manner, including shares redeemed or reacquired by the Corporation and shares which have been converted into or exchanged for shares of any other class, or any series of the same or any other class, shall have the status of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued as shares of the series of which they were originally a part.

(b)    Before any shares of Preferred Stock of any series shall be issued, the Board of Directors, pursuant to authority hereby expressly vested in it, shall fix by resolution or resolutions the following provisions in respect of the shares of each such series so far as the same are not inconsistent with the provisions herein applicable to all series of Preferred Stock:

 

  (i)

the distinctive designations of each series and the number of shares which shall constitute such series, which number may be increased (except where otherwise provided by the Board of Directors in creating such series) from time to time by like action of the Board of Directors;

 

  (ii)

the annual rate or amount of dividends payable on shares of such series, whether such dividends shall be cumulative or non-cumulative, the conditions upon which and/or the dates when such dividends shall be payable and the date from which dividends on cumulative series shall accrue and be cumulative on all shares of such series issued prior to the payment date for the first dividend of such series;

 

  (iii)

whether such series shall be redeemable and, if so, the terms and conditions of such redemption, including the time or times when and the price or prices at which shares of such series shall be redeemable;

 

  (iv)

the amount payable on shares of such series in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation;

 

  (v)

whether such series shall be convertible into or exchangeable for shares of any other class, or any series of the same or any other class, and if so, the terms and conditions thereof, including the date or dates when such shares shall be convertible into or exchangeable for shares of any other class, or any series of the same or any other class, the price or prices or the rate or rates at which shares of such series shall be so convertible or exchangeable, and any adjustments which shall be made in such conversion or exchange prices or rates;

 

  (vi)

whether such series shall have any voting rights in addition to those prescribed by law and, if so, the terms and conditions of exercise of such voting rights; and

 

2


  (vii)

any other designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof.

So long as any shares of Preferred Stock of any series shall be outstanding, the Corporation will not declare or pay any dividends on the Common Stock (other than dividends payable solely in shares of Common Stock) or make any distributions of any kind, either directly or indirectly, in respect of shares of Common Stock, or make any payment on account of the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of Common Stock, unless on the payment, distribution or redemption date, as the case may be, all dividends on the then outstanding shares of Preferred Stock of all series of Preferred Stock then outstanding have been paid.

In case the Corporation shall not pay in full all dividends required to be paid on all shares of all series of Preferred Stock at the time outstanding to the full extent of the preference, if any, to which each such series is entitled, all series which are of equal rank with respect to such dividends, including accumulations thereof, if any, shall be entitled to such dividends in proportion to the amounts that would be payable on such series if all dividends were paid in full. Accumulations of dividends shall not bear interest.

In case the Corporation shall not pay in full all amounts required to be paid on all shares of all series of Preferred Stock at the time outstanding in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, the shares of all series of Preferred Stock shall share ratably in the payment of all amounts payable in the event of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up in accordance with the sums which would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable on such liquidation, dissolution or winding up were paid in full.

When dividends shall have been paid (or declared and set aside for payment) on the Preferred Stock to the full extent of the preference, if any, to which the Preferred Stock is entitled, dividends on the remaining class or classes of stock may then be paid out of the funds of the Corporation which are legally available therefor.

FIFTH: Intentionally Omitted.

SIXTH: The following provisions are inserted for the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation, and for further definition, limitation and regulation of the powers of the Corporation and of its directors and stockholders.

(1)    The number of directors of the Corporation shall be such as from time to time shall be fixed by, or in the manner provided in, the by-laws. Election of directors need not be by ballot unless the by-laws so provide.

(2)    The directors shall be divided into three classes designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, respectively. Each class shall consist, as nearly as may be possible, of one-third of the total number of directors constituting the entire Board of Directors. At each annual meeting of the stockholders, successors to the class of directors whose term expires at the annual meeting shall be elected for a three-year term. If the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly as equal as possible, but in no case shall a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director. A director shall hold office until the annual meeting for the year in which his term expires and until his successor shall be elected and shall qualify, subject, however, to prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office.

 

3


(3)    The initial Board of Directors shall consist of seven members, two of whom shall be Class I directors, two of whom shall be Class II directors and three of whom shall be Class III directors.

(4)    Subject to the rights, if any, of holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, any vacancy on the Board of Directors that results from an increase in the number of directors may be filled by a majority of the Board of Directors then in office, provided that a quorum is present, and any other vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum. Any director elected to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in such class shall hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class. Any director elected to fill a vacancy not resulting from an increase in the number of directors shall have the same remaining term as that of his predecessor. In no case shall a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director.

(5)    The Board of Directors shall have power without the assent or vote of the stockholders to make, alter, amend, change, add to or repeal the by-laws of the Corporation; to fix and vary the amount to be reserved for any proper purpose; to authorize and cause to be executed mortgages and liens on all or any part of the property of the Corporation; to determine the use and disposition of any surplus or net profits; and to fix the times for the declaration and payment of dividends.

(6)    In addition to the powers and authorities hereinbefore or by statute expressly conferred upon them, the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation; subject, nevertheless, to the provisions of the statutes of Delaware, of this Certificate, and to any by-laws from time to time made by the stockholders; provided, however. that no by-laws so made shall invalidate any prior act of the directors which would have been valid if such by-law had not been made.

SEVENTH: No director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided, however. that this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director: (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation and its stockholders; (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law; (iii) under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware; or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

EIGHTH: The Corporation shall indemnify, in accordance with and to the full extent now or hereafter permitted by law, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (including, without limitation, an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of his acting as a director of the Corporation (and the Corporation, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, may so indemnify a person by reason of the fact that he is or was an officer or employee of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation in any other capacity for or on behalf of the Corporation) against any liability or expense actually

 

4


or reasonably incurred by such person in respect thereof; provided, however. that the Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any such person: (i) with respect to proceedings, claims or actions initiated or brought voluntarily by such person and not by way of defense; or (ii) for any amounts paid in settlement of an action effected without the prior written consent of the Corporation to such settlement. Such indemnification is not exclusive of any other right or indemnification provided by law, agreement or otherwise.

NINTH: Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between the Corporation and its creditors or any class of them and/or between the Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware, may, on the application in a summary way of the Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation under the provisions of Section 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation under the provisions of Section 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as the said court directs. If a majority in number representing three-fourths in value of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of the Corporation as consequence of such compromise or arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and the said reorganization shall, if sanctioned by the court to which the said application has been made, be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders of the Corporation, as the case may be, and also on the Corporation.

TENTH: The Corporation reserves the right to change any provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation; provided, however. that notwithstanding anything else contained in the Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary and subject to the powers and rights of any series of Preferred Stock issued by the Corporation as provided herein, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the voting stock of the Corporation shall be required to amend, alter or repeal or adopt any provision inconsistent with Article Sixth, Article Seventh, Article Eighth, Article Ninth of this Certificate of Incorporation or this Article Tenth.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Restated Certificate of Incorporation to be signed by its duly authorized officer as of the date set forth below.
