The Company By-Laws provided under section 2 of Article III for a maximum of thirteen (13) directors.  Under Section V (4) of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Committee”) may make recommendations on Board structure and the Committee recommended unanimously on June 6, 2016 to increase the authorized number of directors to fifteen (15), since the Committee believes that the Board should be in a position to review desirable candidates as operations progress.

Under Section 9 of Article IX of the By-Laws, the Board may upon the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the directors amend the By-Laws.  Based upon the recommendation of the Committee, the increase of the directorship was approved unanimously by the Board on June 7, 2016. The effective date of the amendment to the Amended and Restated Bylaws of Zion Oil & Gas, Inc. is June 7, 2016 and the amended By-Laws are provided under Exhibit 3(i).1.
