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

A special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) of PharMerica Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), was held on November 9, 2017 to vote on the following matters: (i) a proposal to adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of August 1, 2017, by and among the Company, Phoenix Parent Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Phoenix Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”), (ii) a proposal to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, specified compensation that may be paid or become payable to the named executive officers of the Company in connection with the Merger and (iii) a proposal to approve the adjournment of the Special Meeting from time to time, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement. 

As of the close of business on September 28, 2017, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 31,118,927 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. 24,675,757 shares of the Company’s common stock were represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting, constituting a quorum.
