Item 5.03. Amendment of Articles of Incorporations or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
As disclosed in Item 5.07 below, at the 2017 Annual Meeting the Stockholders (the Annual Meeting) of Boingo Wireless, Inc. (the Company) held on June 8, 2017, the Companys stockholders approved an amendment (the Certificate Amendment) to the Companys Certificate of Incorporation in order to declassify the Companys board of directors (the Board) and provide that directors shall be elected for one-year terms after the expiration of their respective current terms. The Certificate Amendment was previously approved by the Board, subject to stockholder approval, and became effective upon filing with the Delaware Secretary of State on June 9, 2017. Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the directors elected at or prior to the Annual Meeting will continue to serve out their three-year terms, but directors elected after the Annual Meeting will be elected to one-year terms. Therefore, beginning with the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, the entire Board will be elected on an annual basis.
Additionally, the Board previously approved an amendment and restatement of the Companys Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amended and restated, the Bylaws), effective upon the filing of the Certificate Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State. The amendments consist of conforming changes to reflect the declassification of the Board.
Copies of the Certificate Amendment and the Bylaws are filed as Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing descriptions of the Certificate Amendment and the Bylaws do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate Amendment and the Bylaws.
