Item 5.03 - Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

In connection with a periodic review of the bylaws of Smartsheet Inc. (the “Company”), including review in the context of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's updates to Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Universal Proxy Rules”), the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) approved and adopted the Company’s amended and restated bylaws (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”), which became effective on January 31, 2024.

Among other things, the amendments effected by the Amended and Restated Bylaws:

address matters relating to the Universal Proxy Rules, including requirements that shareholders deliver a notice of nomination certifying to the Company in writing that they have complied with the Universal Proxy Rules requirements, and providing the Company a remedy if a shareholder fails to satisfy the Universal Proxy Rules requirements;
update the procedural requirements for shareholders to submit director nominations and propose other business;
update the information requirements for shareholders submitting director nominations and proposing other business, including requiring notice of the names of, among others, associated persons and any person acting in concert with such proposing shareholder, and requiring additional information, representations, and disclosures from such shareholders and from other persons related to a shareholder’s solicitation of proxies;
update the information and access requirements for shareholder director nominees, including requiring that proposed nominees submit requisite representations and disclosures, complete requisite questionnaires, consent to being named in any proxy statement related to the Company's shareholder meeting as well as being named in the associated proxy card as a nominee of a shareholder, and be available for interviews by the Board or any committee thereof;
restate the Board's rights related to managing the conduct of annual and special meetings of shareholders, including clarifying that the presiding person of a shareholder meeting may set additional attendance or other procedures for meeting attendees and Rule 14a-8 proponents;
require that a shareholder intending to authorize a qualified representative to act for such shareholder as a proxy to present a nomination or proposal at such meeting to give notice of such authorization to the Company at least three business days before the applicable meeting;
require that a shareholder directly or indirectly soliciting proxies from other shareholders use a proxy card color other than white; and
limit the number of nominees that a shareholder may nominate for election at a meeting to the number of directorships that are available for election at such meeting.

The Amended and Restated Bylaws also incorporate ministerial, clarifying, and conforming changes, including changes to align with the language used in certain provisions of the Universal Proxy Rules.

The foregoing summary of the Amended and Restated Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Amended and Restated Bylaws, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
