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

On March 26, 2026, EBR Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect a one-for-ten (1:10) reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), with an effective date and time for the Reverse Stock Split of April 1, 2026 at 4:00 a.m., Eastern Time (the “Effective Time”).

As previously reported, at its Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on March 11, 2026 (U.S. Pacific time), and upon the recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), the Company’s stockholders approved amendments to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Common Stock at a ratio ranging from any whole number between 1-for-5 and 1-for-20, as determined by the Board in its discretion. On March 17, 2026, the Board approved a final Reverse Stock Split ratio of 1-for-10 and abandoned all other amendments.

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, at the Effective Time, every ten (10) shares of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, were automatically converted, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, into one validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable share of Common Stock, subject to the treatment of fractional shares as described below. The Charter Amendment did not affect the number of authorized shares of Common Stock or the par value of each share of Common Stock. The Company's outstanding CHESS Depositary Interests ("CDIs") will not be consolidated as part of the Reverse Stock Split but rather the transmutation ratio of the CDIs to shares will change from 1-to-1 to 10-to-1 (referred to below as the "conversion ratio"). Accordingly, there is no anticipated change to the value of each CDI, nor will there be any change, except for possible minor rounding differences, to the number of CDIs that securityholders hold.

Where the Reverse Stock Split results in a fraction of a share because a shareholding is not evenly divisible by 10, that fraction will be rounded up to the nearest whole share, and the corresponding number of CDIs will be rounded up to the nearest multiple of 10, after taking into account the new conversion ratio of 10 CDIs to one share.

Monday, March 30, 2026 (Australian time) will be the last day for CDIs to trade on a 1:1 basis / pre-Reverse Stock Split basis on the Australian Exchange (“ASX”) and to request to convert securities between the CDI and share registers on a pre-Reverse Stock Split basis, and Tuesday, March 31, 2026 (Australian time) will be the first day for CDIs to trade on the basis of the new conversion ratio / post- Reverse Stock Split basis on a deferred settlement basis on the ASX.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Charter Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

EBR Systems, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Corporation”), hereby certifies that:

1.       The name of the Corporation is EBR Systems, Inc.

2.       The Certificate of Incorporation of this corporation was originally filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on April 25, 2003 and was last amended and restated on November 18, 2021, and further amended on May 22, 2025 (the “Restated Certificate”).

3.       The Board of Directors of the Corporation, acting in accordance with the provisions of Sections 141 and 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, adopted resolutions amending the Restated Certificate as follows:

(i)        Article IV, Part A of the Restated Certificate is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“This Company is authorized to issue two classes of stock to be designated, respectively, ***“Common Stock”***and ***“PreferredStock.”***The total number of shares which the Company is authorized to issue is 610,000,000 shares. 600,000,000 shares of which shall be Common Stock, having a par value per share of $0.0001. 10,000,000 shares of which shall be Preferred Stock, having a par value per share of $0.0001.

Effective as of 4:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on April 1, 2026 (the “Effective Time”), each ten (10) shares of the Common Stock issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the respective holders thereof, be combined and converted into one (1) share of Common Stock, subject to the treatment of fractional share interests as described below (the “ReverseStock Split”). No certificates representing fractional shares of common stock shall be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. All shares of Common Stock (including fractions thereof) issuable upon the Reverse Stock Split to a given holder shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the Reverse Stock Split would result in the issuance of a fractional share. If, after the aforementioned aggregation, the Reverse Stock Split would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall, in lieu of issuing any such fractional share, round up to the nearest whole number of shares in order to bring the number of shares held by such holder up to the next whole number of shares of Common Stock.”

4.       This Certificate of Amendment was duly adopted by the stockholders of the Corporation in accordance with the provision of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

In Witness Whereof, the Corporation has caused this Certificate of Amendment to be signed by a duly authorized officer as of March 26, 2026.
