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

On December 12, 2022, the board of directors of SPX Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) approved an amendment and restatement of the Company’s amended and restated by-laws (as so amended and restated, the “Amended By-laws”), effective as of such date. Among other matters, the Amended By-laws update certain procedural requirements related to director nominations by stockholders in light of the recently effective “universal proxy” rules set forth in Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

The amendments effected by the Amended By-laws include:

•enhanced requirements regarding the information stockholders must submit and representations stockholders must make in connection with providing advance notice of stockholder meeting proposals and director nominations;

•requirements for stockholders submitting such proposals or director nominations to supplement the information provided in the notice as of the record date and, generally, as of ten (10) business days prior to the relevant stockholder meeting;

•a requirement that a stockholder or a qualified representative of the stockholder appear at the relevant stockholder meeting to present a nomination or other business under the advance notice provisions;

•a prohibition against a stockholder nominating a greater number of persons for election to the board of directors than are subject to election at the applicable stockholder meeting;

•a requirement that a stockholder proposing a matter for a vote by stockholders at a meeting solicit proxies from holders of shares with voting power sufficient to approve the matter;

•a requirement that a stockholder proposing director nominations comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-19, which requires the stockholder to solicit proxies from holders of shares representing 67% of the voting power of shares entitled to vote in the election of directors;

•a requirement that for an individual to be eligible for election as a director the individual must complete a questionnaire in a form provided by the Company to provide information relevant to election as a director, including with respect to background, qualifications, stock ownership and independence, and represent that he or she is not and, if elected as a director during his or her term of office, will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding specifying how he or she is to act or vote as a director on any issue or question;

•a requirement that a stockholder soliciting proxies from other stockholders use a proxy card color other than white;

•clarifying changes to provisions permitting stockholder meetings to be held by means of remote communication; and

•a provision for the Chairman of the Board (with a chain of succession in the Chairman’s absence) to serve as the presiding officer of stockholder meetings, with authority to establish and enforce rules for the conduct of stockholder meetings.

Under the Amended By-laws, the requirements related to stockholder proposals listed above do not apply to any proposal made in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act to be included in the Company’s proxy statement. The Amended By-laws also effected certain other administrative, modernizing, clarifying, and conforming changes, and changes in furtherance of gender neutrality.

The foregoing description of the changes effected by the Amended By-laws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended By-laws, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference. A marked copy of the Amended By-laws, which indicates the changes from the prior version of the Company’s amended and restated by-laws, is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.2.
