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

On May 22, 2024, Tutor Perini Corporation (the "Company") held its 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting") at which, upon recommendation of the Company's Board of Directors, the shareholders approved amendments (the "Amendments") to the Company's articles of organization and by-laws to adopt a majority voting standard for uncontested elections of directors, as described in the Company's definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 12, 2024 (the "Proxy Statement"). Under the Amendments, a candidate in an uncontested election of directors will be elected only if the votes cast “for” his or her election exceed the votes cast “against” his or her election. In contested elections, the voting standard will continue to be a plurality of votes cast.

The Amendments became effective upon receipt for filing of the Company's Restated Articles of Organization by the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on May 22, 2024.

The foregoing description of the Amendments is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Company's Restated Articles of Organization, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto, and the Company's Fifth Amended and Restated By-Laws, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.2 hereto, both of which are incorporated by reference into this Item 5.03.
