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

On March 23, 2023, in connection with a periodic review of the bylaws of TriNet Group, Inc. (the “Company”), the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company adopted and approved the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Amended Bylaws”). Among other things, the amendments effected by the Amended Bylaws:

Enhance procedural mechanics and disclosure requirements in connection with stockholder nominations of directors and submission of stockholder proposals made in connection with annual and special meetings of stockholders, including requiring additional disclosures, representations and warranties from nominating or proposing stockholders and proposed nominees and their respective affiliates and associates about their Company stock ownership (including derivative securities), agreements with respect to voting commitments and stock ownership, relationships among the nominating or proposing stockholders and proposed nominees and litigation with the Company, among other disclosures, and removing the requirement to provide the name and address of any other stockholder supporting the proposal;

Address matters regarding nominations of directors and solicitations of proxies in compliance with Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including:

Requiring the nominating stockholder or beneficial owner to represent that it intends to solicit proxies or votes from stockholders representing at least 67% of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote on the election of directors;

Requiring the nominating stockholder to provide prompt notice, no later than five business days prior to the applicable stockholder meeting, of reasonable evidence that it has met the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(3) of the Exchange Act;

Requiring that a stockholder soliciting proxies from other stockholders use a proxy card color other than white; and

Clarifying that a failure to provide information required by Rule 14a-19 or comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(2) or Rule 14a-19(a)(3) will result in the Company disregarding a stockholder’s nomination or proposal of other business;

Limiting the number of nominees that a stockholder may nominate to the number of directors to be elected at such meeting;

Modify the provisions relating to adjournment procedures and eliminating the requirement that a list of stockholders be made available at stockholder meetings, in each case, to reflect recent amendments to the Delaware General Corporation Law; and

Make various other updates, including administrative, ministerial, refining and conforming changes and adding gender neutral language.

The foregoing description is qualified in all respects by reference to the text of the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
