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

On February 15, 2018, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of AtriCure, Inc. (the “Company”) amended and restated the Company’s Bylaws to change the voting standard for the election of directors from a plurality to a majority voting standard in uncontested elections. Pursuant to new Section 3.3 of the Bylaws, under the new majority voting standard, a nominee for director shall be elected to the Board only upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, which means that the number of votes “for” a nominee exceeds the votes cast “against” that director’s election with abstentions and broker non-votes, if applicable, not counted as votes cast with respect to a director’s election.

New Section 3.3 also implements a director resignation policy pursuant to which any director who fails to receive the required majority vote in an uncontested election will promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board for its consideration. Within 90 days following certification of the stockholder vote, the Board will publicly disclose its decision regarding whether to accept the resignation or take other action.

The foregoing description of the amendments to the Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws, filed as Exhibit 3.2 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
