Item 5.03             Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
 
Effective June 26, 2007, the Board of Directors of State Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) amended the Company’s bylaws (the “Bylaws”) to permit the Company to issue uncertificated shares. Previously, the Bylaws required that all shares of capital stock of the Company be represented by certificates. The Bylaws were amended in order for the Company to become eligible to participate in a Direct Registration Program as required by NASDAQ Rule 4350(l). In addition, effective as of June 26, 2007 the Board of Directors of the Company amended the Bylaws to further define the responsibilities of the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer while those positions are held by different individuals.

The full text of the Bylaws, as amended, is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated into this Item 5.03 by reference.
