Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On July 29, 2021, based on the recommendation of the nominating and corporate governance committee of the board of directors (the “Board”) of Health Catalyst, Inc. (the “Company”), the Board approved an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated bylaws (the “Amendment”), effective immediately. The Amendment designates the federal district courts as the exclusive jurisdiction for any litigation arising under the Securities Act of 1933. In addition, the Amendment provides that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of the Company’s capital stock is deemed to have notice of and consented to the foregoing provisions. The Board approved the Amendment in order to reduce any potential expenses that the Company may incur in connection with any of the specified types of actions or proceedings if the Company was required to defend any such potential actions or proceedings in multiple jurisdictions and in parallel proceedings in federal and state courts simultaneously.

AMENDMENT TO THE
AMENDED AND RESTATED
BYLAWS
OF
HEALTH CATALYST, INC.
(the “Corporation”)
Section 8 of Article VI of the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Corporation (the “Bylaws”), is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“SECTION 8. Exclusive Jurisdiction of Delaware Courts or the United States District Court. Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for any state law claims for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer or other employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the Certificate or Bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Corporation or any current or former director, officer or other employee or stockholder of the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine; provided, however, that this provision does not apply to actions arising under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the sole and exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause or causes of action under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including all causes of action asserted against any defendant to such complaint. For the avoidance of doubt, this provision is intended to benefit and may be enforced by the Corporation, its officers and directors, the underwriters to any offering giving rise to such complaint, and any other professional or entity whose profession gives authority to a statement made by that person or entity and who has prepared or certified any part of the documents underlying the offering. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Section 8 of Article VI.”
