The information set forth in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.
Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On May 1, 2024, Safe & Green Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Restated Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio of 1-for-20 (the “Reverse Stock Split”), with an effective time of 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on May 2, 2024 (the “Effective Time”). The Company expects that upon the opening of trading on May 2, 2024, the Common Stock will begin trading under the existing trading symbol “SGBX” on a split-adjusted basis under a new CUSIP number, 78418A604.
As previously disclosed, at its annual meeting of stockholders held on December 6, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved a proposal to authorize the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) to amend the Restated Certificate to effect a reverse stock split at a ratio between 1-for-10 and 1-for-20, as determined by the Board in its discretion. On April 24, 2024, the Board approved the Reverse Stock Split.
No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock are instead entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the number shares of the Common Stock held by such stockholder before the Reverse Stock Split that would otherwise have been exchanged for such fractional share interest multiplied by the average closing price of the Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market for the 10 days preceding the Effective Time.
In addition, in connection with the Reverse Stock Split, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Company’s outstanding stock options and warrants will be reduced proportionately and the per share exercise price of the Company’s outstanding options and warrants will be increased proportionately.
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Exhibit 3.1
CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION OF SAFE & GREEN HOLDINGS CORP.
(Pursuant to Section 242 of the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware)
Safe & Green Holdings Corp. (the “Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “General Corporation Law”),
1. The Board of Directors of the Corporation has duly adopted a resolution pursuant to Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware setting forth a proposed amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended (the “Restated Certificate”), and declaring said amendment to be advisable. The requisite stockholders of the Corporation have duly approved said proposed amendment in accordance with Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. The amendment amends the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation as follows:
Article Fourth, Section (a) of the Restated Certificate is hereby amended to add the following paragraph immediately after the first paragraph of Article Fourth, Section (a):
“Upon this Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation becoming effective pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Effective Time”), the shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and the shares of Common Stock issued and held in the treasury of the Corporation immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be reclassified as and combined into a smaller number of shares such that every twenty (20) shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time are automatically combined into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, no fractional shares shall be issued and, in lieu thereof, any person who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock as a result of the reclassification and combination following the Effective Time (after taking into account all fractional shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder) shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the number of shares of the Common Stock held by such stockholder before the Reverse Stock Split that would otherwise have been exchanged for such fractional share interest multiplied by the average closing sales price of the Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market for the ten (10) days preceding the Effective Time.
Each stock certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, automatically and without the necessity of presenting the same for exchange, represent that number of whole shares of Common Stock after the Effective Time into which the shares of Common Stock formerly represented by such certificate shall have been reclassified and combined (as well as the right to receive cash in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock after the Effective Time), provided however, that each person of record holding a certificate that represented shares of Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall receive, upon surrender of such certificate, a new certificate evidencing and representing the number of whole shares of Common stock after the Effective Time into which the shares of Common Stock formerly represented by such certificate shall have been combined.”
2. This Certificate of Amendment shall be effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on May 2, 2024.
