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

On October 3, 2007, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Micromet, Inc. (the "Company") approved an amendment and restatement (the "Amendment and Restatement") of the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Bylaws. The purpose and intent of the Amendment and Restatement is to make clear that the Company may issue both uncertificated and certificated shares of its capital stock. The Board approved the Amendment and Restatement to ensure that the Company is in compliance with recent rules promulgated by the Nasdaq Stock Market requiring NASDAQ-listed issuers to be eligible for a Direct Registration Program by January 1, 2008. A Direct Registration Program permits an investor’s ownership of shares to be recorded and maintained on the books of the issuer or the transfer agent electronically without the issuance of a physical certificate.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the actual terms of the Amended and Restated Bylaws, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.7 and incorporated herein by reference.
