Item 5.03

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

On April 17, 2018, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Blonder Tongue Laboratories, Inc. (the "Company") approved the amendment and restatement of the Company's existing Amended and Restated Bylaws, as previously amended. The Company's bylaws, as so amended and restated on April 17, 2018, are referred to herein as the "Amended and Restated Bylaws." The amendments approved by the Board as part of the amendment and restatement are generally intended to provide procedures with respect to stockholder proposals for action to be taken at meetings of the Company's stockholders, other than stockholder proposals relating to the nomination of candidates for election to the Board of Directors (Article III, Section 3 – Notification of Nomination – already included provisions regarding stockholder proposals relating to director nominations, and such provisions were not revised as part of the amendment and restatement). In addition to certain technical and other non-material revisions, the Amended and Restated Bylaws now include a new Section 10 – Notice of Stockholder Business; Nominations in Article II, which, among other things:

- requires that a stockholder desiring to propose business for action at a meeting of stockholders (other than a nomination for director) to provide notice to the Company within certain time frames specified in Section 10;

- requires that a stockholder's notice include certain information regarding the business the stockholder intends to propose, including the reasons for the proposal;

- requires that a stockholder's notice also include certain identifying information about the stockholder and the stockholder's ownership of the Company's securities;

- requires that a stockholder's notice provide a representation that the stockholder (or a qualified representative of the stockholder) intends to appear at the meeting to propose such business;

- requires that a stockholder's notice disclose any material interest of the stockholder in the proposed business and a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to the proposed business between the proposing stockholder and any other person; and

- requires the proposing stockholder to also comply with all applicable requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act") and the rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act.

The Amended and Restated Bylaws became effective immediately upon the approval thereof by the Board.

The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Bylaws, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
