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

The Board of Directors of Customers Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the adoption of an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws Amendment”), which became effective as of June 18, 2019. The Bylaws Amendment amends Article Three, Section 3.05(a) of the Amended and Restated Bylaws to provide that the vote required in the election of directors will be governed by the provisions of Article Eighteenth of the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation. The Bylaws Amendment was necessary to conform the voting provisions of the Amended and Restated Bylaws to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, which were amended upon the adoption by the Company’s shareholders at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of a proposal to provide for a majority voting standard in uncontested elections of directors.

The Bylaws Amendment is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
