Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.
On and effective as of March 28, 2016, the Board of Directors of Equinix, Inc. (Equinix) adopted Amended and Restated Bylaws which were
amended to add a new section 2.11 to Article II thereof to allow certain stockholders to include their director nominees in Equinixs annual meeting proxy materials (the Proxy Access Bylaw). Under the Proxy Access Bylaw, any
eligible stockholder, or eligible group of up to 20 stockholders, owning 3% or more of Equinixs outstanding common shares continuously for at least three years, may nominate and include in Equinixs annual meeting proxy materials director
nominees, up to a total number not to exceed 20% of the directors then serving on the Board of Directors, provided that the eligible stockholder or eligible group of stockholders and the director nominee(s) satisfy the requirements in the Proxy
Access Bylaw. The Proxy Access Bylaw will be first available to stockholders for Equinixs 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
The foregoing
summary of the Proxy Access Bylaw does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Bylaws. The Amended and Restated Bylaws, marked to show the Proxy Access Bylaw amendments,
