Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On September 15, 2023, at the annual meeting of stockholders of Apartment Income REIT Corp. (the “Company”), the Company’s stockholders approved certain amendments to the Company’s Articles of Amendment and Restatement (the “Charter”) to (i) lower the threshold for stockholders to remove directors to a simple majority of shares outstanding and eliminate the requirement that such removal be for “cause,” (ii) reduce to a simple majority the shareholder vote required to amend the Company’s Charter and Amended and Restated Bylaws, and (iii) to eliminate language that is by its terms no longer applicable due to the passage of time (as amended and restated, the “Amended and Restated Charter”).
The Company’s Board of Directors previously approved the amendments to the Charter, subject to receipt of the requisite stockholder approval. As a result, the Amended and Restated Charter became effective at 12:01 am (Eastern Time) on September 21, 2023, after the Company filed the Amended and Restated Charter with the Maryland Department of Assessments & Taxation on September 20, 2023.
The foregoing description is only a summary of the amendments and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Charter, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
