Item 5.03    Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On June 9, 2021, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Travere Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) approved an amendment (the “Amendment”) to Article IX of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), effective as of such date, to revise the forum selection provision for the adjudication of certain disputes. The revised provision, as set forth in Article IX of the Bylaws, provides that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The revised provision also sets forth additional claims or causes of action that are subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware.

The description of the Amendment set forth above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full and complete Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
