Certificate of Incorporation/Bylaws Form 8 K

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

On August 9, 2024, One Stop Systems, Inc. (the "Company") amended Article II, Section 2.11 and Article, III Section 3.3 of its Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended (the "Bylaws"), to provide that, although directors shall be elected by a plurality of votes cast at a meeting of stockholders of the Company, in an uncontested election of directors, any director nominee who receives a greater number of votes "against" than votes "for" (excluding abstentions) his or her election must promptly tender his or her resignation. Following receipt of such resignation, the Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee (the "Committee") of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") will consider the resignation and recommend to the Board whether to accept such tendered resignation. Except in special circumstances, the Committee will be expected to accept and recommend acceptance of the resignation by the Board. The Board shall make a decision with respect to whether to accept or reject the director's resignation within 90 days following the applicable meeting of stockholders, which decision, once made by the Board, shall promptly be disclosed via a press release.

Any director who tenders his or her resignation pursuant to Article III, Section 3.3 of the amended Bylaws will not participate in the recommendation of the Committee or the decision of the Board with respect to such resignation. In the event that a director who receives a greater number of votes "against" than votes "for" (excluding abstentions) his or her election at a meeting of stockholders does not tender his or her resignation, he or she will not be re-nominated by the Board for re-election.

The foregoing process applies only in circumstances involving an uncontested election of directors. For purposes of the Bylaws, as amended, an "uncontested election" of directors of the Company means an election held at any meeting of stockholders where the number of nominees for election as a director is equal to the number of directors to be elected.

The foregoing amendments to the Bylaws are set forth in a Certificate of Amendment to the Bylaws. Pursuant to Article X of the Bylaws, stockholder approval was not required to amend the Bylaws.

The foregoing summary of the provisions of the Certificate of Amendment does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
