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

On July 24, 2012, upon the completion of the initial public offering (“IPO”) of shares of common stock of Five Below, Inc. (the “Company”), the Company filed the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of Five Below, Inc. (the “Post-IPO Charter”) which amended and restated the Company’s articles of incorporation in its entirety. As described in the final prospectus of the Company dated July 18, 2012, the changes to the articles of incorporation effected by the Post-IPO Charter are: (i) the setting of the authorized capitalization of the Company of 120 million shares of common stock and 5 million shares of preferred stock and (ii) the addition of provisions relating to the classification of the board of directors. The Post-IPO Charter was approved by the board of directors of the Company on June 12, 2012 and by the shareholders of the Company. The Post-IPO Charter became effective upon filing with the Department of State of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on July 24, 2012.

On June 12, 2012, the board of directors of the Company approved the amendment and restatement of the existing bylaws of the Company in their entirety to be effective upon completion of the IPO (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”). The Amended and Restated Bylaws were also approved by the shareholders. As described in the final prospectus of the Company dated July 18, 2012, the Amended and Restated Bylaws revised the bylaws to: (i) explicitly permit electronic communications in the context of voting, meetings, and notices; (ii) include a classified board provision; (iii) remove the provision permitting shareholders to act by written consent; and (iv) outline procedures for nominating persons to the board and filling any vacancy occurring in the board.
