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

On December 6, 2023, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Trimble Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), adopted amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws (as amended and restated, the “By-Laws”) to: (i) provide stockholders with a proxy access right, (ii) adopt a majority voting standard for the election of directors, and (iii) make other technical and conforming changes, including to update the procedures and disclosure requirements for director nominations made under the Company’s existing advance notice requirements to reflect the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s adoption of Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The By-Law amendments became effective as of December 6, 2023.

Specifically, Section 7 has been added to Article II of the By-Laws to provide a proxy access right permitting a stockholder, or a group of up to twenty (20) stockholders, owning three percent (3%) or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock continuously for at least three (3) years to nominate and include in the Company’s proxy materials director nominees constituting up to the greater of (i) twenty percent (20%) of the Board or (ii) two (2) directors, provided that the stockholder(s) and the nominee(s) satisfy the requirements specified in the By-Laws.

Furthermore, Section 1 of Article III of the By-Laws was amended to adopt a majority voting standard (in lieu of a plurality voting standard) for the election of directors.

Additional amendments were made to the By-Laws in connection with the above and to make clarifying or conforming language changes, in addition to other technical changes, such as amending Section 6 of Article II of the By-Laws to comply with the applicable provisions of the “universal proxy card” rules, as set forth in Rule 14a-19 of the Exchange Act, including a requirement for a stockholder’s eligibility to nominate a director candidate.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the By-Laws filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Report.
