Item 5.03

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

On December 3, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Chevron Corporation (the “Corporation”) approved and adopted amended and restated By-Laws of the Corporation (the “By-Laws”), effective December 3, 2025. The following is a summary of the changes, all of which relate to simplifying Article II (titled “Officers”) to provide the Corporation with the flexibility to modernize officer titles and align officer title nomenclature with prevailing practice:

•Amended Article II, Section 2, to (i) provide that the Corporation shall have, in addition to a Chief Executive Officer and a Secretary, such other officers as may be elected by the Board to hold such offices that are created by resolution of the Board or created as authorized by the Board; (ii) delete the creation of other specific officers; and (iii) provide that officers shall have such powers and perform such duties as may from time to time be granted or assigned by the By-Laws, the Board or, subject to the control of the Board, by a committee thereof or by the Executive Committee, or as may otherwise be in accordance with the direction of the Board.

•Amended Article II, Sections 3 and 7, to delete the reference to the other powers and duties of the Chief Executive Officer and the Secretary, respectively, each of which was added to Article II, Section 2.

•Deleted Article II, Sections 4 through 6 and Sections 8 through 13, referencing the creation of Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; Vice President and General Counsel; Executive Vice Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents, and Vice Presidents; Assistant Secretaries; Treasurer; Assistant Treasurers; Controller; General Tax Counsel; and Other Officers.

•Renumbered various sections in Article II to reflect these amendments.

Underlines use the same word lists the scores use. AI, recession and tariffs follow Palanor’s word counter, so those counts match it exactly on the same text. Layoffs and buybacks use the terms the model was given. The model’s count is an estimate by meaning, not by string, so it can differ from the underlines.
