Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On September 17, 2014, the Board of Directors of Town Sports International Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) amended and restated the Company’s by-laws (the “By-Laws”) in the form of Exhibit 3.2 to this Form 8-K (the “Third Amended and Restated By-Laws”), effective immediately.

The By-Laws were amended to add a requirement that a stockholder seeking to act by written consent must request in writing that the Board of Directors fix a record date for the purpose of determining the stockholders entitled to take such action. Within ten days after receipt of a proper request, the Board of Directors may adopt a resolution fixing a record date, which record date must be not more than ten days after the date on which such record date is established. If no resolution fixing a record date has been adopted by the Board of Directors within such ten day period after the date on which such a request is received, (i) the record date when no prior action of the Board of Directors is required by applicable law, will be the first date on which valid signed written consents constituting the applicable percentage of the outstanding shares of the Company and setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is properly delivered to the Company and (ii) the record date when prior action by the Board of Directors is required by applicable law will be at the close of business on the date on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action. The amendment also requires that a stockholder seeking to act by written consent with respect to the election of directors or new business must give advance notice to the Company and includes disclosure requirements for stockholders proposing to take action by written consent, including, among other things, disclosing the text of the proposal and disclosures similar to those required for stockholders who submit director nominations and stockholder proposals to be made at an annual meeting of stockholders.

The foregoing description of the Third Amended and Restated By-Laws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual Third Amended and Restated By-Laws, which is filed as Exhibit 3.2 to this Form 8-K and is hereby incorporated by reference.
