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

On December 12, 2012, Pall Corporation (the “Registrant”) held its 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). At the Annual Meeting, the shareholders approved amendments to the Registrant’s By-Laws, which were adopted by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) on September 26, 2012, subject to shareholder approval. The amendments eliminate administratively burdensome provisions, provide the Board with more flexibility within the limits of applicable law and make the by-laws more consistent with New York law and current best practices. The amendments consist of the following: (i) eliminating requirement that annual shareholder meetings be held only within the State of New York, (ii) eliminating requirement that special shareholder meetings be held only within the State of New York in Glen Cove or New York City, (iii) allowing the vote requirement to capture a voting standard of less than a majority of shares represented and entitled to vote, and (iv) deleting requirement that the Board may only amend the by-laws at a regular or special meeting of the Board.

The foregoing description of the amendments to the Registrant’s by-laws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the by-laws, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1(i) and incorporated herein by reference.
