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

Amendment and Restatement of Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

On June 12, 2007, Infinera Corporation (the “Company”) filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and amended and restated its bylaws in connection with the completion of its initial public offering of shares of its common stock. As described in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-140876), the Company’s board of directors and stockholders had previously approved the amendment and restatement of these documents to be effective upon the closing of the initial public offering.

As amended and restated, the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that, among other things, i) authorize 500,000,000 shares of common stock, (ii) delete all references to the various series of preferred stock that were previously authorized and instead create 25,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, (iii) eliminate the ability of the stockholders to take action by written consent, (iv) provide for advance notice periods for stockholder proposals and nominations of directors, (v) provide that special meetings of stockholders may not be called by stockholders, (vi) provide that vacancies on the board of directors, including newly-created directorships, may be filled only by a majority vote of directors then in office rather than by stockholders, (vii) require that directors only be removed from office for cause and only upon a supermajority stockholder vote, and (viii) establish a classified board of directors, as a result of which the successors to the directors whose terms have expired will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following their election.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to (i) the amended and restated certificate of incorporation, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1, and (ii) the amended and restated bylaws, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

The Company also announced that the underwriters of the offering exercised in full their option to purchase an additional 2,100,000 shares of the company’s common stock, bringing the total initial public offering size to $209.3 million prior to the deduction of underwriting discounts and estimated expenses paid by Infinera.
