Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On December 15, 2022, as part of its periodic review of corporate governance matters, the Board of Directors of Salesforce, Inc. (the “Company”) amended and restated the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (as so amended and restated, the “Amended and Restated Bylaws” and such amendments, the “Bylaw Amendments”). The Bylaw Amendments, which are effective immediately, make certain limited updates to the procedures and disclosure requirements for director nominations made and business proposals submitted by stockholders (other than proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) and address the adoption by the Securities and Exchange Commission of “universal proxy” rules and related requirements (the “Universal Proxy Rules”), including to require certification of compliance with the Universal Proxy Rules and provide that a stockholder nomination will be deemed null and void if the nominating stockholder fails to comply with the Universal Proxy Rules. The amendments also include other conforming, technical and non-substantive changes.
The foregoing description of the Bylaw Amendments does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Bylaws, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
