Item 8.01 Other Events.
The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of KnowBe4, Inc. (the “Company”) has scheduled its annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) for May 16, 2022. Because the Company did not hold an annual meeting of stockholders in 2021, the Company has set a deadline of March 28, 2022 for the receipt of any stockholder proposals for inclusion in the proxy materials to be distributed in connection with the Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, which the Company believes to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and distribute its proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. Any Exchange Act Rule 14a-8 proposal received after this date will be considered untimely. Stockholders should send any such proposal to KnowBe4, Inc., Attn: General Counsel, 33 N. Garden Ave, Suite 1200, Clearwater, Florida 33755, and any proposal must comply with all applicable requirements set forth in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Exchange Act Rule 14a-8, in order to be eligible for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the Annual Meeting.
Pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated bylaws (the “Bylaws”), any stockholder seeking to raise a proposal outside the processes of Exchange Act Rule 14a-8 or make a nomination for consideration at the Annual Meeting, but not included in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting, must comply with the requirements of the Bylaws, including by delivering notice of their proposal or nomination to KnowBe4, Inc., Attn: General Counsel, 33 N. Garden Ave, Suite 1200, Clearwater, Florida 33755, no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on March 28, 2022. Any proposal or nomination received after such date will be considered untimely and will not be considered at the Annual Meeting.
An adjournment, rescheduling or postponement of the Annual Meeting date, or any announcement of such action, will not commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for giving such notice under the Bylaws or submitting a proposal pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 14a-8.
