elected as a director of the Corporation, will act or vote on any issue or question (a "Voting Commitment") that has not been disclosed to the Corporation or (B) any Voting Commitment that could limit or interfere with such
person's ability to comply, if elected as a director of the Corporation, with such person's fiduciary duties under applicable law, (ii) is not and will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person
or entity other than the Corporation with respect to any direct or indirect compensation, reimbursement or indemnification in connection with service or action as a director that has not been disclosed therein, and (iii) in such person's
individual capacity and on behalf of any person or entity on whose behalf the nomination is being made, would be in compliance, if elected as a director of the Corporation, and will comply with all applicable publicly disclosed corporate governance,
code of conduct, conflict of interest, confidentiality and stock ownership and trading policies and guidelines of the Corporation and any other policies and guidelines of the Corporation applicable to directors; (b) provide that, unless the

against the Corporation or any
- 2 -
director or officer or other employee of the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine shall be a state court located within the State of Delaware (or, if no state court located
within the State of Delaware has jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware); (c) provide that the Board may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meetings of the stockholders as it
shall deem appropriate and, except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations, the chairman of any meeting of the stockholders shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such
acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting; and (d) make certain conforming and other amendments necessary or desirable for the implementation of the foregoing.
The Amended and Restated Bylaws, are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.01 to this Report on Form 8-K.
SECTION 5 – CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
ITEM 5.07 SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
At the 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Sysco Corporation held on November 15, 2013, Sysco's stockholders re-elected each of
the Corporation's directors that had been nominated to serve until the Corporation's 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. John M. Cassaday was re-elected with 94.38% of the votes cast, Jonathan Golden was re-elected with 83.69% of the
votes cast, Joseph A. Hafner, Jr. was re-elected with 98.57% of the votes cast, Hans-Joachim Koerber was re-elected with 98.57% of the votes cast, Nancy S. Newcomb was re-elected with 98.62% of the votes cast, and Jackie M. Ward was re-elected with
92.25% of the votes cast. The stockholders also approved the adoption of the Sysco Corporation 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan and the compensation paid to Sysco's named executive officers, as disclosed in Sysco's 2013 proxy statement, and
ratified the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as Sysco's independent accountants for fiscal 2014. The stockholder vote on the Sysco Corporation 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan was approved by 75.19% of the votes cast, the stockholder
vote on executive compensation was approved by 89.66% of the votes cast, and the appointment of the independent accountants for fiscal 2014 was approved by 98.62% of the votes cast. With respect to each item, the number of votes cast includes all
"for" and "against" votes, and abstentions and broker non-votes are disregarded with respect to each item except the approval of the Sysco Corporation 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan. New York Stock Exchange rules require that the
proposal to approve the adoption of the Sysco Corporation 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan receive a majority of the votes cast, whether for, against or abstain. Accordingly, abstentions were counted as votes against with respect to this proposal.
