Rhea-AI Filing Summary

The quorum requirement for annual and special meetings was reduced from a majority of shares entitled to vote to one-third of those shares.

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

On March 20, 2026, the Board of Directors of the registrant (“Laser Photonics” or the “Company”) amended section 2.6 of its Bylaws to reduce the quorum for annual and special meetings of the shareholders from a majority of the shares entitled to vote at such meetings to one-third (1/3rd ) of the shares entitled to vote at such meetings. The Board believed that this amendment will facilitate the holding of such meetings in light of the many retail investors that hold a small number of its shares who might not respond to requests in proxy statements that they receive and the decision by a number of broker/dealer firms to not exercise their discretionary authority to vote on behalf of such shareholders. A copy of the Amended and Restated Bylaws it attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
