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

 

On July 5, 2017, Blue Apron Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a restated certificate of incorporation (the “Restated Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in connection with the closing of the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”). The Company’s board of directors and stockholders previously approved the Restated Certificate to be filed in connection with, and to be effective upon, the closing of the IPO.

 

The Restated Certificate amends and restates the Company’s certificate of incorporation in its entirety to, among other things: (i) revise the authorized capital stock of the Company to consist of 1,500,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, 175,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, 500,000,000 shares of Class C Capital Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share; (ii) eliminate all references to the previously existing series of preferred stock; (iii) establish a classified board of directors, divided into three classes, each of whose members will serve for staggered three-year terms; (iv) provide that directors may be removed from office only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the votes that all of the Company’s stockholders would be entitled to cast for the election of directors; (v) provide that any vacancy on the Company’s board of directors, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of its board of directors, may be filled only by vote of a majority of directors then in office; (vi) eliminate the ability of the Company’s stockholders to take action by written consent in lieu of a meeting and call special meetings of stockholders; (vii) provide that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee or stockholder of the Company to the Company or its stockholders, (c) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the General Corporation Law or as to which the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery or (d) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine; and (viii) provide that the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

The foregoing description of the amendments made by the Restated Certificate is qualified by reference to the Restated Certificate, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

On July 5, 2017, in connection with the closing of the IPO, amended and restated by-laws of the Company (the “Amended and Restated By-Laws”), previously approved by the Company’s board of directors to become effective immediately following the closing of the IPO, became effective. The Amended and Restated By-Laws amend and restate the Company’s bylaws in their entirety to, among other things: (i) eliminate the ability of the Company’s stockholders to take action by written consent in lieu of a meeting and call special meetings of stockholders; (ii) establish procedures relating to the presentation of stockholder proposals at stockholder meetings; (iii) establish procedures relating to the nomination of candidates for election to the Company’s board of directors; and (iv) conform to the amended provisions of the Restated Certificate.

 

The foregoing description of the amendments made by the Amended and Restated By-Laws is qualified by reference to the Amended and Restated By-Laws, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
