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

On May 15, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company
approved an amendment and restatement of the Company’s bylaws (the “ Amended and Restated Bylaws”), effective as of the
same date. Among other things, the amendments contained in the Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that any action required or permitted
by any provision of Connecticut law to be taken at a shareholders’ meeting may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice,
if consents in writing setting forth the action so taken are signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum
number of votes that would be required to authorize such action at a shareholders meeting.

The Bylaws also contain conforming, clarifying, and updating
changes to supplement the above amendments, as well as certain other routine and technical updates and revisions.

The foregoing description of amendments set forth in the
Amended and Restated Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amended and Restated
Bylaws, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K asExhibit 3.1and incorporated by reference herein.
