Item 5.03    Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
As described in Item 5.07 below, at the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") of New Relic, Inc. (the "Company") held on August 18, 2021, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment (the "Declassification Amendment") to the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Restated Certificate") to declassify the Company's board of directors (the "Board")
and provide for the annual election of directors after the expiration of their current terms. As described in the Company's proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, the declassification of the Board will be phased out over a two-year period such that, beginning at the election of directors at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, all directors would be up for election for a one-year term. The Declassification Amendment was previously approved by the Board, subject to approval by the Company's stockholders, and became effective upon its filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on August 18, 2021.
On August 18, 2021, the Board adopted amendments to the Bylaws (the "Amended and Restated Bylaws") which, among other things, consist of: (i) implementing the Declassification Amendment, including conforming changes to reflect the phased declassification of the Board; (ii) updating the advanced notice provisions to revise the information to be included in and to accompany notices as to nominations for elections of directors in connection with annual meetings, revise the information to be included in and to accompany notices as to business proposals in connection with annual meetings, provide that the presiding officer of an annual meeting can determine whether business was properly brought before the annual meeting, expand the required information that must be provided by proponents of proposals, expand the definition of proponent to include affiliates and associates of stockholders who provide the notice of proposal or nomination and the beneficial owner(s) on whose behalf the nomination or proposal was made, and clarify that the obligation to update and supplement any notice under such provision shall not limit the Company's right to accept any deficiencies in any notice, to extend any applicable deadline or to permit a stockholder to amend or update any proposal or to submit a new proposal; (iii) providing that the presiding officer of an annual or special meeting, or a duly authorized officer of the Company, may postpone or adjourn any annual or special meeting for any purpose, and providing that if such meeting is reconvene, the adjourned meeting shall be deemed a continuation of the initial meeting; and (iv)
designating the U.S. federal district courts as the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum
.
Copies of the Restated Certificate, as amended by the Declassification Amendment (the "Amended Charter") and the Amended and Restated Bylaws are filed as Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing descriptions of the Amended Charter and the Amended and Restated Bylaws do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended Charter and the Amended and Restated Bylaws.
