Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On February 19, 2013, PSS World Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) held a special meeting of shareholders to consider and vote on (1) a proposal to approve the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 24, 2012 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among McKesson Corporation, Palm Merger Sub, Inc., and the Company; (2) a non-binding advisory proposal to approve the compensation that may become payable to the Company’s named executive officers in connection with the merger; and (3) a proposal to approve the adjournment of the special meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies in support of Proposal 1 if there are insufficient votes at the time of the meeting to approve the Merger Agreement.
As of the close of business on January 7, 2013, which was the record date for the special meeting, 50,328,843 shares of Company common stock were issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. At the special meeting, holders of 40,304,805 shares of Company common stock were represented in person or by proxy, constituting a quorum.
