Explanatory Note

Pursuant to Instruction 2 to Item 5.02 of Form 8-K, Box, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A to amend the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 23, 2020, April 24, 2020 and May 27, 2020 (collectively, the “Original Filings”), to disclose the subsequent appointments of Jack Lazar, Bethany Mayer and Carl Bass to committees of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). The initial appointments to the Board of Ms. Mayer and Messrs. Lazar and Bass were disclosed in the Original Filings. At the time of the Original Filings, the Board had not determined to which committees, if any, Ms. Mayer and Messrs. Lazar and Bass would be appointed. Except as stated herein, the Original Filings shall remain in effect.

 

ITEM 5.02

The foregoing appointments will each be effective as of immediately following the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders to be held on July 15, 2020 (the “Annual Meeting”). In addition, because Messrs. Lazar and Bass are Class III directors of the Company up for election at the Annual Meeting, their appointments are contingent upon their election by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting.

 

ITEM 8.01

As a result of the committee appointments approved by the Board on June 23, 2020, immediately following the Annual Meeting, and contingent upon the election of Messrs.

the Compensation Committee of the Board will consist of Bethany Mayer (Chair), Sue Barsamian, Dana Evan and Peter Leav;

 

   

the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board will consist of Dana Evan (Chair), Sue Barsamian and Carl Bass; and

 

   

the Operating Committee of the Board will consist of Sue Barsamian (Chair), Kim Hammonds, Jack Lazar and Bethany Mayer.

Additionally, the Board approved the appointment of Dana Evan as the Company’s Lead Independent Director, effective as of immediately following the Annual Meeting.
