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

On February 17, 2023, the Board of Directors of Mueller Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) approved amendments to the Company’s bylaws primarily in response to recent changes to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Delaware General Corporation Law. A summary of these amendments is set forth below:

Annual Meetings of Stockholders: Article II, Section 11 was amended to update the procedural mechanics for stockholder nominations of directors in accordance with Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and to make certain other changes related to the information required to be provided in connection with such nominations;
List of Stockholders: Article II, Section 8 was updated in order to remove a requirement that the list of stockholders be available during a meeting of stockholders; and
Number of Board Members: Article III, Section 1 was updated to reduce the number of directors from nine (9) to eight (8), to reflect the current size of the Board.

The foregoing summary does not purport to be a complete description of the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws, as adopted and effective on February 17, 2023 (the “Restated By-Laws”) and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Restated By-Laws, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference in this Item 5.03.
