ITEM 5.02 DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS, APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.
On May 4, 2016, Raul Vazquez was named to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Intuit Inc. (“Intuit”), and the number of directors was increased from eight to nine members. Mr. Vazquez was appointed to serve on the Audit and Risk Committee and the Acquisition Committee of the Board.
Mr. Vazquez will receive compensation for services as a non-employee director of Intuit consistent with the compensation generally provided to other Intuit non-employee directors, as determined by the Board from time to time, and disclosed in our 2015 proxy statement, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 25, 2015, including initial and succeeding grants to Mr. Vazquez of restricted stock units with a grant date fair value of approximately $75,000 and $195,000, respectively, on May 5, 2016. There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Vazquez and any other persons pursuant to which he was selected as a director, and there are no transactions involving Intuit and Mr. Vazquez that Intuit would be required to report pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
A copy of the press release announcing Mr. Vazquez’s appointment is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.01.
ITEM 5.03 AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR.
Effective May 5, 2016, the Board amended and restated Intuit’s Bylaws (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”) to implement proxy access. Article I, Section 1.13 of the Amended and Restated Bylaws permits a stockholder, or a group of up to 20 stockholders, owning at least 3% of Intuit’s outstanding shares that are entitled to vote generally in the election of directors continuously for at least three years to nominate and include in Intuit’s proxy materials up to 2 directors or 20% of the Board (rounded down), whichever number is greater, provided that the nominating stockholder(s) and the nominee(s) satisfy the requirements specified in the Amended and Restated Bylaws.
The Amended and Restated Bylaws also reflect (i) additional revisions and updates made to Article I, Section 1.12, to enhance procedural and informational requirements for advance notice of director nominations and other proposals brought before an annual and/or special meeting of Intuit’s stockholders, as applicable, (ii) certain other changes, updates and clarifications made to Article I, Section 1.4, regarding recess of meetings of stockholders; Article II, Section 2.7, regarding the organization of stockholder and Board meetings; Article II, Sections 4.2 and 4.3, regarding the roles of the Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson of the Board; Article V regarding uncertificated shares; Article VI regarding indemnification; and Article IX, Sections 9.6 and 9.7, regarding choice of forum, and (iii) certain other minor technical and conforming changes.
