Item 5.08

Shareholder Director Nominations.

 

Item 8.01

Other Events.

 

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Raptor Pharmaceutical Corp. (“Raptor” or the “Company”) has established May 5, 2015 as the date of the Company’s 2015 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2015 Annual Meeting”). Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), stockholders may present proper proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement and for consideration at the Company’s next annual meeting of stockholders. To be eligible for inclusion in the Company’s 2015 proxy statement, any stockholder proposal must be received by the Company’s Corporate Secretary at its principal executive offices no later than February 19, 2015 and must otherwise comply with Rule 14a-8. While the Board will consider stockholder proposals, the Company reserves the right to omit from its 2015 proxy statement stockholder proposals that it is not required to include under the Exchange Act. The February 19, 2015 deadline will also apply in determining whether notice of a stockholder proposal is timely for purposes of exercising discretionary voting authority with respect to proxies under Rule 14a-4(c) of the Exchange Act. The Company’s bylaws also provide for separate notice procedures to propose business to be considered by stockholders at an annual meeting outside the processes of Rule 14a-8. To be considered timely under these provisions, the stockholder’s notice of such proposal must be received by the Company’s Corporate Secretary at its principal executive offices no later than the close of business on February 23, 2015. Proposals to be included in the 2015 proxy statement prepared by the Company must comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and the procedures set forth in the Company’s bylaws.
