Item 5.03. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As described under Item 5.07 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, on May 12, 2015, at the 2015 Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) of Catamaran Corporation (the “Company”), the Company’s shareholders did not ratify an amendment (the “Advance Notice Bylaw Amendment”) to the Company’s amended and restated bylaws (the “Bylaws”) to add certain advance notice and other requirements for shareholders to propose director nominations or other business for shareholder meetings. The Advance Notice Bylaw Amendment became effective upon its approval by the Company’s board of directors on October 30, 2014. However, pursuant to the provisions of the Yukon Business Corporations Act, the Advance Notice Bylaw Amendment ceased to be effective upon the failure to obtain shareholder ratification at the Meeting. The further amended and restated bylaws, effective as of May 12, 2015, reflecting the removal of Sections 3.7 and 3.8 containing the Advance Notice Bylaw Amendment, are filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At the Meeting, Peter J. Bensen, Steven D. Cosler, William J. Davis, Steven B. Epstein, Betsy Holden, Karen Katen, Harry M. Kraemer, Anthony R. Masso, and Mark A. Thierer were each elected to serve as a director of the Company until the close of the next annual meeting of shareholders or until his or her successor is duly elected or appointed, whichever occurs first. Additionally, the Company's shareholders re-appointed KPMG LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2015, and approved, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company's named executive officers. The Company’s shareholders did not ratify the Advance Notice Bylaw Amendment.

Set forth below are the final voting results for each of the matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders of the Company.
