To the extent required by Item 3.03 of Form 8-K, the information contained in Item 5.03 of this Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.03

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

On December 6, 2022, the Board of Directors Organon & Co. (the “Company”) approved and adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws (as so amended and restated, the “Amended Bylaws”), effective December 6, 2022.

The Amended Bylaws amended and restated the Company’s prior bylaws primarily to make compliance with the applicable provisions of the “universal proxy card” rules, as set forth in Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Rule 14a-19”), a requirement for a shareholder’s eligibility to nominate a director candidate.

Among other things, the Amended Bylaws:

address the universal proxy card rules by clarifying that no person may solicit proxies in support of a director nominee other than the Board’s nominees unless such person has complied with Rule 14a-19, including applicable notice and solicitation requirements;

enhance procedural mechanics and disclosure requirements in connection with stockholder nominations of directors and submissions of proposals regarding other business at stockholder meetings, such as requiring additional background information and disclosures regarding the proposing stockholders and the proposed nominees or other business; and

make certain technical, modernizing and clarifying changes.

The foregoing description of the terms of the Amended Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended Bylaws, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
