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

On August 23, 2013, Aradigm Corporation (the “Corporation”), filed with the Secretary of State of California an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Corporation’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Articles”). The Corporation’s board of directors and shareholders previously approved the Amendment on July 15, 2013. On February 3, 2014, the Corporation filed a Certificate of Correction with the Secretary of State of California to correct an error in the Amendment. The Certificate of Correction replaced the second sentence of the first paragraph of Article III of the Amended and Restated Articles in order to correct the total number of shares the Corporation is authorized to issue as previously approved by the Corporation’s board of directors and shareholders.

The Amendment amends the Amended and Restated Articles to increase the number of authorized shares of the Corporation to 1,006,830,627 shares. The Amendment and the Certificate of Correction are attached hereto as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.
