Explanatory Note

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed by Box, Inc. (“Box” or the “Company”) as an amendment (“Form 8-K Amendment”) to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 10, 2021 in order to disclose the final voting results for the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) held on September 9, 2021 as provided by First Coast Results, Inc., the independent Inspector of Election for the Annual Meeting (the “Inspector of Election”).

As described in more detail under Item 5.07 of this Form 8-K Amendment, at the Annual Meeting, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended, the “Charter”) to eliminate the supermajority stockholder vote requirement to amend, repeal or adopt all provisions of the Charter. The material terms of the Charter Amendment are summarized under the heading “Proposal No. 4 — Charter Amendment To Eliminate Supermajority Stockholder Vote Requirement To Amend Certain Charter Provisions” in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 19, 2021 (the “Definitive Proxy Statement”).

The Amendment became effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on September 14, 2021. A copy of the Certificate of Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders of the Company voted on the following proposals, each of which is more fully described in the Definitive Proxy Statement:

On September 14, 2021, the Inspector of Election issued its final report which certified the final voting results for the Annual Meeting. Set forth below are the final voting results as provided by the Inspector of Election. Set forth below are the final voting results as provided by the Inspector of Election, which remain unchanged from the preliminary results the Company previously disclosed in its Current Report on Form 8-K on September 10, 2021.

The Class A common stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock vote together as a single class unless otherwise provided. Each stockholder of record is entitled to one vote per share of Class A common stock and one vote per each share of Class A common stock underlying a share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on an “as converted” basis. On July 12, 2021, the record date for the Annual Meeting (the “Record Date”), there were 173,344,280 votes underlying the issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Present at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy were holders of shares of Class A common stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock representing an aggregate of 139,718,682 votes, or 80.60% of the voting power underlying the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting as of the Record Date, constituting a quorum.

The stockholders voted to re-elect each of the Company’s director nominees as a Class I director to serve until the Company’s 2024 annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. 

The stockholders voted to approve the amendment to the Company’s 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. 

The stockholders voted to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.
