Item 5.03       Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
 
On August 9, 2010, the Board of Directors of Gold Resource Corporation (the “Company”) amended and restated its bylaws, effective immediately.  A copy of the Company’s amended and restated bylaws is attached to this report as Exhibit 3.2.
 
The Company amended Section 1 of Article I to remove the requirement that its annual meeting be held within six months following the close of its last fiscal year, and amended Article VI to allow the Company to be eligible for the Direct Registration System (“DRS”) by permitting the issuance of uncertificated shares of the Company’s capital stock. The DRS enables investors to have securities recorded and maintained on the books of the issuer or the transfer agent without the issuance of a stock certificate and enables the electronic transfer of the securities.  The amended and restated bylaws also made several ministerial clarifications.
