Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

As previously disclosed, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, entered into as of September 25, 2013 and effective as of October 1, 2013 by and among Premier, Inc. (the “Company”), Premier Healthcare Alliance, LP (f/k/a Premier Purchasing Partners, L.P.) (“Premier LP”) and its limited partners (the “Exchange Agreement”), commencing on October 31, 2014, and during each year thereafter, each limited partner will generally have the cumulative right to exchange, on a quarterly basis, a portion of its Premier LP Class B common units (“Class B Units”) for shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (“Class A Stock”), cash or a combination of both, the form of consideration to be at the discretion of the audit and compliance committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Audit Committee”). In connection with the October 31, 2014 quarterly exchange date, the Audit Committee determined to settle all exchanged Class B Units for shares of the Company’s Class A Stock. For each Class B Unit that is exchanged pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the limited partner will also surrender one corresponding share of the Company’s Class B common stock (“Class B Stock”), which will automatically be retired.

On October 31, 2014, the first quarterly exchange date under the Exchange Agreement, 4,685,267 Class B Units were exchanged for a like number of newly issued shares of Class A Stock. In addition, 4,685,267 shares of the Company’s Class B Stock were retired and are no longer outstanding. No additional consideration was paid in connection with the exchange. The shares of Class A Stock were issued in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on the basis that no public offering was made.

For additional information regarding the Exchange Agreement, see “Note 2—Initial Public Offering and Reorganization—Exchange Agreement” the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 4, 2014.
