Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

On April 9, 2023, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Beyond Meat, Inc. (the “Company”) approved and adopted amended and restated bylaws (the “Bylaws”), which became effective the same day.
Article I, Section 1.5 of the Bylaws was amended to modify the quorum required for the transaction of business at a meeting of stockholders of the Company to provide that the presence, in person or by proxy, of holders of one-third (1/3rd) of the voting power of the shares of stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting, except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws. Prior to this amendment, the presence, in person or by proxy, of holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting would constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting. The change to the quorum requirement for stockholder meetings was made to improve the Company’s ability to hold stockholder meetings when called.
The foregoing description of the amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Bylaws, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

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

The disclosure provided under Item 3.03 above is incorporated herein by reference.
