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

On May 17, 2006, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of G&K Services, Inc. (the “Company”) added a Section to the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (“Bylaws”) and amended Section 22 of the Bylaws, in each case, as specifically described in Exhibit 3(ii) attached hereto. Exhibit 3(ii) also sets forth previous Section 22 of the Bylaws, the same now having been replaced in its entirety. The purpose of the added bylaw is to specify the requirements with which shareholders of the Company must comply in order to submit a proposal for consideration at an annual meeting. The amendments to Section 22 of the Bylaws shorten the notice requirements applicable to meetings of the Board, and set forth additional methods by which such notice may be provided.

Pursuant to existing authority provided in the Bylaws, subject to the limitations therein referenced, the Board was authorized to add such new Section to the Bylaws and to so amend the Bylaws absent further approval of or action by the Company’s shareholders. As a result, such additional Section and such amendment became effective on the date approved by the Board, i.e., May 17, 2006.
