Item 8.01 Other Events
 
The Board of Directors of Plantronics, Inc. (the “Company”) has established June 28, 2019 as the date of the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2019 Annual Meeting”). This date represents an advance by more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the Company’s 2018 annual meeting of stockholders held on August 2, 2018. As a result, the deadlines for stockholders to submit proposals and nominations of directors as set forth in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for its 2018 annual meeting of stockholders have changed. The Company currently intends that annual meetings following 2019 will be held on a schedule that is substantially consistent with the 2019 Annual Meeting.

Under the Company’s amended and restated bylaws (the “Bylaws”), for stockholder proposals and director nominations to be presented at the 2019 Annual Meeting (other than by means of inclusion of a stockholder proposal in the Company’s proxy materials under Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which is described below), the Company must receive notice in accordance with the Bylaws at the Company’s principal executive offices not later than the close of business on March 25, 2019. The notice must include all of the information required by the Bylaws.

Stockholder proposals intended for inclusion in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the 2019 Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 must be received at the Company’s principal executive offices no later than March 25, 2019 (which the Company believes is a reasonable time before it begins to print and send its proxy materials).

Proposals and notices of proposals should be delivered to the Company’s Corporate Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices: Corporate Secretary, Plantronics, Inc., 345 Encinal Street, Santa Cruz, California 95060.
