Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions (see General Instruction A.2. below):

On May 6, 2014, Autoliv, Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). As discussed under Item 5.07 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to Article 5 of the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to declassify the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and provide for the annual election of all directors (the “Declassification Amendment”).

Under the Declassification Amendment, directors standing for election commencing with the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders will be elected for one year terms. Directors elected by stockholders prior to the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders, including directors that were elected at the Annual Meeting, will serve out their three year terms, and the entire Board will be elected annually commencing with the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders. A detailed description of the Declassification Amendment is set forth in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting (the “2014 Proxy Statement”), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2014.

Consistent with Delaware law, the Declassification Amendment also provides for the removal of a director without cause commencing from and after the election of directors at the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders. Until the election of directors at the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders, a director may be removed for cause only. In either case, the vote required to remove a director will be the affirmative vote of 80% of the Company’s outstanding shares entitled to vote in the election of directors.

The Declassification Amendment became effective upon the Company’s filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State on May 6, 2014 (the “Certificate of Amendment”).

In connection with the foregoing, and as described in the 2014 Proxy Statement, the Board also approved corresponding amendments to Section 3.1 of the Company’s Restated By-laws to declassify the Board and provide for the annual election of all directors of the Board on the schedule described above. The Board’s approval of these conforming amendments to the Restated By-laws was contingent upon stockholder approval of the Declassification Amendment. Accordingly, the Company’s Second Restated By-laws became effective as of May 6, 2014.

The foregoing descriptions of the Declassification Amendment and the Second Restated By-laws are qualified in their entirety by reference to the texts of the Certificate of Amendment and the Second Restated By-laws, which are filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
