Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Nexalin Technology, Inc. adopted Second Amended and Restated Bylaws, effective immediately, making broad changes to its corporate governance framework. The bylaws update advance notice procedures for stockholder director nominations and other business, including provisions tailored to Rule 14a-19 and limits on the number of stockholder nominees.

The revisions modify how nominations may occur at special meetings, clarify that these procedures are the exclusive means for such nominations, and adjust rules on notices, waivers, voting standards, adjournments, and stockholder lists. The quorum requirement for stockholder meetings is lowered from a majority of the voting power of outstanding shares to one-third.

The bylaws now permit stockholder action by written consent subject to detailed procedures, and refine provisions on board structure, director terms, vacancies, removal and board meeting organization. They also update officer and stock certificate provisions, expand indemnification and advancement for directors and executive officers, and adopt exclusive forum clauses designating Delaware courts for internal corporate claims and U.S. federal courts for Securities Act claims.

Insights

Nexalin overhauls bylaws, tightening procedures and clarifying forums.

Nexalin Technology, Inc. has comprehensively updated its bylaws, with immediate effect, covering stockholder nominations, meeting mechanics, and board governance. The filing emphasizes detailed advance notice rules aligned with Rule 14a-19 and explicit limits on the number of stockholder nominees.

The reduction of the stockholder meeting quorum from a majority to one-third of voting power lowers the threshold needed to conduct business, which can make meetings easier to hold while concentrating influence among those who vote. Allowing stockholder action by written consent, under defined procedures and inspector review, introduces an additional pathway for corporate action outside meetings.

The expanded indemnification and advancement provisions for directors and executive officers, along with exclusive forum clauses steering internal corporate claims to Delaware courts and Securities Act claims to U.S. federal courts, may shape how future disputes are handled. Overall, these are structural and procedural changes rather than direct financial events, and their practical impact will depend on how stockholders and the board use the revised mechanisms.

Rule 14a-19 is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rule that governs how independent proxy advisory firms produce and distribute voting recommendations for shareholders. It requires these advisers to provide companies with notice of their recommendations and a chance to respond, and to disclose certain conflicts; think of it as a referee ensuring both sides see a game plan before fans cast votes. Investors care because proxy advisers influence voting outcomes and corporate governance, so the rule affects transparency, potential bias, and the reliability of guidance that many investors rely on when voting shares.

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

 

On June 16, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Nexalin Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) adopted the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Bylaws (as so amended and restated, the “Second Amended and Restated Bylaws”), which became effective immediately upon adoption. The Second Amended and Restated Bylaws amend and restate the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, as previously in effect (the “Prior Bylaws”).

 

The Second Amended and Restated Bylaws include, among other things, amendments that revise the advance notice procedures for stockholder director nominations and other stockholder business, including to address Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, timing requirements and limits on the number of stockholder nominees; and modify the procedures for stockholder nominations at special meetings, including to address Rule 14a-19 and to clarify that such procedures are the exclusive means for stockholder nominations at special meetings.

 

The Second Amended and Restated Bylaws also revise provisions regarding notices and waivers of notice for stockholder meetings, voting standards for stockholder action, adjournments, recesses and postponements of stockholder meetings, and the list of stockholders entitled to vote at stockholder meetings. In addition, the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws lower the quorum standard for stockholder meetings from a majority of the voting power of outstanding shares to one-third of the voting power of outstanding shares. The Second Amended and Restated Bylaws further replace the Prior Bylaws’ prohibition on stockholder action by written consent or electronic transmission with procedures for stockholder action by consent without a meeting, including procedures relating to record dates, requests to fix record dates and review of consents and revocations by independent inspectors of election.

 

In addition, the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws revise provisions relating to the Board, including provisions addressing the single-class Board structure, director terms, vacancies, future-effective resignations, director removal, Board meeting procedures and the organization of Board meetings. The Second Amended and Restated Bylaws also update provisions regarding the Company’s officers, stock certificates and uncertificated shares, lost certificates, transfers of stock and record dates.

 

The Second Amended and Restated Bylaws further amend and restate the indemnification and advancement provisions applicable to directors and executive officers, update the notice provisions to conform to Section 232 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, revise the amendment provision to clarify the Board’s authority to adopt, amend or repeal the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws unless otherwise provided by the Company’s certificate of incorporation, and make various other technical, conforming, clarifying and administrative changes.

 

The Second Amended and Restated Bylaws also add a forum selection provision providing that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the federal district court of the State of Delaware) will be the exclusive forum for certain internal corporate claims, including derivative actions, claims for breach of fiduciary duty, claims arising under the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, and claims governed by the internal affairs doctrine, and that the federal district courts of the United States will be the exclusive forum for claims arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; provided that the forum selection provision does not apply to claims arising under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

The foregoing summary of the amendments effected by the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
