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

On April 30, 2018, Exterran Corporation (the “Company”) amended Article SEVEN of its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to replace the vote required for stockholders to amend the Company’s Bylaws from the affirmative vote of the holders of 66-2/3% of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding common stock to the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding common stock. This amendment was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders described below. Following the filing of this amendment, the Company restated its certificate of incorporation.

The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which incorporates the amendment to Article SEVEN described above and which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated by reference.
