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

On March 27, 2013, Cooper-Standard Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Certificate of Amendment amending the Certificate of Designations (the “Certificate of Designations”) of 7% Cumulative Participating Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Preferred Stock”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Certificate of Amendment is effective as of March 27, 2013.

The amendment provides that the Company is not required to make an offer to redeem shares of Preferred Stock issued by the Company as “paid in kind” dividends prior to March 18, 2013 before the Company may repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any equity securities of the Company junior to the Preferred Stock so long as any such repurchase, redemption or other acquisition of junior equity securities is completed at a cash price per share greater than the then-applicable conversion price for the Preferred Stock.

The foregoing description of the amendment to the Certificate of Designations is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Designations of 7% Cumulative Participating Convertible Preferred Stock, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
