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

On February 23, 2017, CLARCOR Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Clarcor”), held a special meeting of stockholders to consider and vote upon the following matters:

 

(1) a proposal to adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 1, 2016 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Clarcor, Parker-Hannifin Corporation, an Ohio corporation (“Parker”) and Parker Eagle Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parker (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will be merged with and into Clarcor (the “Merger”), with Clarcor surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parker (the “Merger Proposal”);

 

(2) a proposal to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, certain compensation that may be paid or become payable to Clarcor’s named executive officers in connection with the consummation of the Merger (the “Advisory Compensation Proposal”); and

 

(3) a proposal to approve the adjournment of the special meeting from time to time, if necessary or appropriate, including to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to adopt the Merger Agreement or in the absence of a quorum (the “Adjournment Proposal”).

At the special meeting, approximately 41,581,119 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing approximately 85.37% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock entitled to vote as of the record date for the special meeting, were represented by person or by proxy, which constituted a quorum.

The final voting results for each item voted upon are set forth below:

Proposal One – Merger Proposal. The Merger Proposal was approved by the following vote:
