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

At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of SAIC, Inc. held on June 17, 2011, our stockholders approved an amendment to our certificate of incorporation to enable stockholders owning at least 10% individually, or 25% collectively, of the voting power of our outstanding shares to require the corporate secretary to call a special meeting of stockholders, subject to the provisions of our bylaws. Following stockholder approval of the amendment to our certificate of incorporation, our Board of Directors adopted, on June 17, 2011, corresponding changes to our bylaws, including requirements for requesting a special meeting and procedures to provide for an orderly process for calling a special meeting.

As amended, Section 2.02 of the bylaws provides that, for purposes of the ownership requirements, multiple special meeting requests will not be considered together if they relate to different items of business. In addition, in order to be valid, all special meeting requests must have been dated and delivered to the Secretary within sixty (60) days of the earliest dated special meeting request. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice and must be a proper subject for stockholder action under applicable law. Stockholders submitting a special meeting request are required to provide: (i) identifying information about each requesting stockholder, (ii) a brief description of each matter of business desired to be brought before the special meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the special meeting, (iii) the text of the proposal or business, (iv) a description of any material interest of each requesting stockholder in the business to be brought before the special meeting, and (v) any other information that is required to be set forth in a stockholders notice to bring business or a nominee for director before an annual meeting. Section 2.02 also describes how a stockholder may revoke a request for a special meeting.

The certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as amended, are attached to this report as Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 3.2, respectively, and are incorporated by reference.
