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

On March 4, 2020, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of REV Group, Inc. (the “Company”) amended and restated the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (as so amended and restated, the “Bylaws”) to adopt a majority voting standard in uncontested elections of directors. The Bylaws became effective immediately.

Section 2.07 of the Bylaws has been amended to provide for a majority voting standard in uncontested elections of directors. As a result, in an uncontested election, a director nominee will be elected upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the total votes cast in the election, which means that the number of votes cast “for” a nominee’s election must exceed the number of votes cast “against” that nominee’s election. The Bylaws retain a plurality vote standard for contested director elections. Previously, members of the Board were elected by a plurality vote standard in all director elections.

In connection with the approval of the Bylaws, the Board also approved changes to the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines to require any incumbent director who fails to receive the required number of votes for re-election to promptly tender his or her resignation, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board will make a recommendation to the Board on whether to accept or reject the resignation, or whether other action should be taken. Taking into account the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board will determine whether to accept or reject any such resignation, or what other action should be taken, within 90 days from the date of the certification of election results.

The foregoing description of the Bylaws is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Bylaws, which are filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and are incorporated herein by reference. The amended Corporate Governance Guidelines are available on the Company’s website at www.revgroup.com.
