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

On September 7, 2007, the Board of Directors of Converted Organics Inc. (the "Company") acted to amend and restate the Company's Bylaws (the "Bylaws") to allow for the issuance of uncertificated shares that are registrable in book-entry form and to facilitate participation in the Direct Registration System ("DRS"). The objective of DRS is to allow investors to have securities registered in their names without the issuance of physical certificates, and to minimize the risks and delays associated with the transfer of physical certificates.

The full text of the Amended Bylaws Section 6.1 is filed as Exhibit 3.2A to this Current Report.
