Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

The 2014 annual meeting of shareholders of The Providence Service Corporation (the “Company”), has been scheduled for July 23, 2014 (the “Annual Meeting”). The record date for the Annual Meeting has been set as the close of business on June 4, 2014. Because the date of the Annual Meeting has been changed by more than 30 days from the anniversary of the Company’s 2013 annual meeting of shareholders, the deadline for the submission of proposals by shareholders for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials relating to the Annual Meeting in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Rule 14a-8”), will be the close of business on May 26, 2014, which the Company believes is a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and send its proxy materials. To be eligible for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials, shareholder proposals must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8. Such proposals should be delivered to the Company’s Corporate Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Company, located at 64 E. Broadway Blvd., Tucson, Arizona 85701.

 

The deadline of May 26, 2014, applies only to shareholder proposals that are eligible for inclusion in the Annual Meeting in accordance with Rule 14a-8.
