ITEM

AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR
On July 24, 2015, the Board of Directors of Columbia Sportswear Company (the "Company") approved an amendment to the Company's 2000 Restated Bylaws, as amended ("Restated Bylaws"), to clarify the roles of Chief Executive Officer and President as set forth in Exhibit 3.2.  In many respects, the Restated Bylaws previously treated the President as the Chief Executive Officer (the "CEO"). With the creation of  the President role at the Company that is separate from the role of the CEO, the Board of Directors amended the Restated Bylaws to clarify the language throughout the Restated Bylaws and vest ultimate governance authority in the CEO, except as otherwise determined by the Board of Directors.

Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the Corporation and the proposal of business to be considered by the shareholders may be made at an annual meeting of shareholders (i) pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting or any supplement thereto, (ii) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (iii) by any shareholder of the Corporation who was a shareholder of record both when notice is given as provided for in this Section 1.5 and on the date of the annual meeting, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.5.
(b)
For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder pursuant to this Section 1.5, the share
holder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation and such other business must be a proper matter for shareholder action, as determined by the Board of Directors.  To be timely, a shareholder's notice must be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation at least 90 days, and no earlier than 120 days, before the first anniversary of the date of the proxy statement for the preceding year's annual meeting; provided, however, that if the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 70 days after the anniversary date, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so delivered no earlier than 120 days before the annual meeting and no later than  the later of 90 days  prior to such annual meeting or 10 days following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Corporation.  The public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting will not commence a new time period for the giving of a shareholder's notice as described above.  The shareholder's notice shall set forth (i) as to each person whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election contest or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to

ote at the meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose such business or nomination, and (d) a representation as to whether the shareholder or beneficial owner, if any, intends or is part of a group that intends to (1) deli
ver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation's outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt the proposal or elect the nominee and/or (2) otherwise solicit proxies from shareholders in support
of such proposal or nomination.  The Corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish any other information it reasonably requires to determine the eligibility of the proposed nominee to serve as a director.
(c)
Notwithstanding anything in this S
ection 1.5 to the contrary, if the number of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of the Corporation at an annual meeting is increased and there is no public announcement by the Corporation naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased Board of Directors at least 100 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting, a shareholder's notice required by this Section 1.5 shall also be considered timely (but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase) if it is delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which the public announcement is first made by the Corporation.
(2)
Special Meetings of Shareholders

Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a special meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting (a) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (b) if the Board of Directors has determined that directors shall be elected at the meeting, by any shareholder of the Corporation who is a shareholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this Section 1.5, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.5. If the Corporation calls a special meeting of shareholders for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the Board of Directors, any such shareholder may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be), for election to the position(s) specified in the Corporation's notice of meeting, if the shareholder's notice required by this Section 1.5 is delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than the close of business on the 90th day prior to the special meeting and not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which public announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at the meeting. The public announcement of an adjournment of a special meeting shall not commence a new time period for the giving of a shareholder's notice as described above.
