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

On May 5, 2022, Infrastructure and Energy Alternatives, Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), at which the Company’s stockholders voted to, among other things, approve amendments to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) and Article VIII of the Company’s Amended and Restated By Laws (the “By Laws”) to eliminate supermajority voting standards set forth therein. These amendments were reflected in the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended Charter”), which was filed with the Delaware Secretary of State and became effective on May 5, 2022, and the Company’s Second Amended and Restated By Laws (the “Amended By Laws”), which also became effective on May 5, 2022. In addition to the amendments to eliminate supermajority voting standards, the Amended Charter and Amended By Laws also include ministerial changes to certain contractual limitations, defined terms and references, and the manner in which the Chairman of the Board is designated. The Amended Charter also integrates prior amendments. The foregoing summary of the amendments is qualified in its entirety by the Amended Charter and Amended By Laws, copies of which, marked to show the amendments, are filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

Prior to filing the Amended Charter, the Company filed certificates of elimination (the “Certificates of Elimination”) with the Delaware Secretary of State to eliminate from the Charter all matters set forth in the Certificates of Designations for the Company’s Series A, B-1, B-2, and B-3 Preferred Stock, no shares of which remain outstanding. The Certificates of Elimination became effective May 5, 2022. Copies of the Certificates of Elimination are filed as Exhibits 3.3 through 3.6 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
