Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
    
On February 12, 2016, the Board of Directors ("Board") of Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. (the "Company") amended and restated the bylaws of the Company. The material amendments to the bylaws adopted by the Board are these:

•
Article II and Article IV have been revised to reflect the creation of an "executive chairman" position on the Board. As previously disclosed, John F. Prim, who currently serves as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, is planning to resign from his role as Chief Executive Officer and assume the role of Executive Chairman effective July 1, 2016. Article IV has also been revised to eliminate the unused Chief Operating Officer position, and to permit limited delegation of the Board's power to appoint officers.
•
Section 3.10 has been revised to permit removal of any director with or without cause upon an affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Company's stock entitled to vote thereon.
•
Article II has been amended to clarify the adjournment procedures with respect to stockholder meetings.
•
Article V has been amended to clarify the quorum and voting rules for Board committees.

The foregoing description is a summary of the amendments to the bylaws adopted in connection with the amendment and restatement of the bylaws by the Board and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Restated and Amended Bylaws, as amended and restated February 12, 2016, filed herewith as Exhibit 3.2.6 and incorporated by reference into this Item 5.03.
