The Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ:KHC) Files An 8-K Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

On December 9, 2016, The Kraft Heinz Companys (the Company) Board
of Directors amended the Companys Amended and Restated By-laws
(the By-Laws) to change our fiscal year end from the Sunday
closest to December 31 to the last Saturday in December of each
calendar year. This amendment will be effective on December 31,
2016 and, consequently, the change to our fiscal year will be
effective for our 2016 fiscal year. As a result of the change in
our fiscal year, our 2016 fiscal year end will be December 31,
2016 and our 2017 fiscal year end will be December 30, 2017.
However, the change is not deemed a change in fiscal year for
purposes of reporting subject to Rule 13a-10 or 15d-10 and, as a
result, a transition report is not required to be filed on Form
10-K for our 2016 fiscal year or 2015 fiscal year. This change is
intended to more closely align our fiscal year end date to the
close date of our U.S. and Canadian businesses and is not
expected to have an effect on our results.

The above description of the amendments to the By-Laws is not
complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
By-Laws, which are filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this report and
incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.

(d) The following exhibit is filed with this Current Report on
Form 8-K.
