Securities registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Act:

(e) Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On August 23, 2021, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Core-Mark Holding Company Inc. (the “Company”) approved the Core-Mark Holding Company, Inc. Executive Change in Control Severance Pay Plan (the “Executive Severance Plan”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 17, 2021, by and among the Company, Performance Food Group Company, Longhorn Merger Sub I, Inc., and Longhorn Merger Sub II, LLC (the “Merger Agreement”), including the merger of Longhorn Merger Sub I, Inc. with and into the Company (the “merger”).

Under the Executive Severance Plan, employees of the Company with the title of Vice President, Senior Vice President or Executive Vice President (“participants”) are eligible for severance in the event of a participant’s termination of employment by the Company without “cause” or by the participant for “good reason” during the period commencing on the effective time of the merger and ending on the date that is twelve (12) months thereafter (a “Qualifying Termination”).

The Executive Severance Plan provides that participants are eligible to receive a cash severance payment upon a Qualifying Termination, the amount of which is determined based on the participant’s years of service with the Company, as set forth in the following table:

Additionally, Vice Presidents and Senior Vice Presidents are eligible for a minimum benefit payment equal to 12 months of base salary and target bonus and Executive Vice Presidents are eligible for a minimum benefit of payments equal to 18 months of base salary and target bonus. No severance payment will exceed 18 months of base salary and target bonus. Participants are also entitled to receive a prorated bonus for the year in which a Qualifying Termination occurs, with the amount of such prorated bonus equal to the product of (a) the participant’s target bonus for the year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs, and (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from January 1 through the date of the Qualifying Termination, and the denominator of which is 365. In addition, upon a Qualifying Termination, the Company will provide reimbursement for the cost of COBRA premiums for the number of months for which the participant receives the severance payments.

All severance benefits under the Executive Severance Plan are conditioned on the participant signing and not revoking a general release of claims. The Executive Severance Plan does not provide for any excise tax gross-up payments.

The foregoing description of the Executive Severance Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete copy of the Executive Severance Plan attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.

On August 25, 2021, the Company held a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders (the “Special Meeting”), at which holders of 38,293,588 shares of common stock were present in person or by proxy, representing 84.8% of the voting power of the shares of the Company’s common stock as of July 13, 2021, the record date for the Special Meeting, and constituting a quorum for the transaction of business. Each of the proposals listed below is described in more detail in the definitive proxy statement/prospectus filed July 14, 2021, and incorporated herein by reference. A summary of the voting results at the Special Meeting for each of the proposals is set forth below:

1. Merger Agreement Proposal. The stockholders adopted the Merger Agreement. The voting results for this proposal were as follows:

2. Merger-Related Compensation Proposal. The stockholders approved, on a non-binding advisory basis, compensation payable to executive officers of the Company in connection with the proposed transactions. The voting results for this proposal were as follows:

3. Core-Mark Adjournment Proposal. The stockholders voted to allow the chairman of the Special Meeting to adjourn the Special Meeting from time to time, if necessary or appropriate, (a) due to the absence of a quorum, (b) to solicit additional proxies in the event there are not sufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to approve the Merger Agreement Proposal or (c) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and mailing of any required supplement or amendment to the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, and the review of such materials by Company stockholders. Adjournment of the Special Meeting was not necessary or appropriate because there were sufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Merger Agreement Proposal and no additional time was required to timely provide any supplement or amendment to the proxy statement/prospectus. The voting results for this proposal were as follows:

As previously announced on August 5, 2021, the Board approved a $0.13 cash dividend per share. On August 23, 2021, the Board approved a revised payment date for the cash dividend of August 30, 2021. The cash dividend will be paid to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 20, 2021.
