Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

(a) On June 30, 2020, Mylan N.V. (“Mylan” or the “Company”) held its annual general meeting of shareholders (the “AGM”) to (i) appoint two executive directors and eleven non-executive directors, each for a term ending immediately after the next annual general meeting held after their appointment; (ii) approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers of the Company; (iii) adopt the Dutch annual accounts for fiscal year 2019; (iv) ratify the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2020; (v) instruct Deloitte Accountants B.V. for the audit of the Company’s Dutch statutory annual accounts for fiscal year 2020; (vi) authorize Mylan’s Board of Directors (the “Mylan Board”) to acquire shares in the capital of the Company; and (vii) delegate to the Mylan Board the authority to issue ordinary shares and grant rights to subscribe for ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and to exclude or restrict pre-emptive rights.

On June 30, 2020, Mylan also held its extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “EGM”) in connection with the proposed transaction pursuant to which Mylan will combine with Pfizer Inc.’s (“Pfizer”) Upjohn business (the “Upjohn Business”) in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction (the “Combination”) to (i) approve the Combination Proposal (as defined below); (ii) adopt the Compensation Proposal (as defined below); (iii) adopt the Proposal Regarding Procedures for Determining Board Composition (as defined below); and (iv) adopt the Stockholder Special Meetings Proposal (as defined below).

As of the close of business on June 2, 2020, the record date for both the AGM and the EGM (the “Record Date”), there were issued and outstanding 516,947,234 ordinary shares of Mylan entitled to vote at each of the AGM and the EGM. As of the Record Date, there were no preferred shares of Mylan issued and outstanding. At least 50% of Mylan’s issued share capital was present or represented at each of the AGM and the EGM with respect to each proposal below, which exceeds the required quorum of at least one-third of Mylan’s issued share capital present or represented for each such proposal. With respect to each proposal below, any abstentions, “blank votes” and invalid votes were counted for the purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, but were not considered to be votes cast and therefore had no effect on the vote on any such proposal. Any “broker non-votes” with respect to any proposal were not treated as shares present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum with respect to such proposal and were not considered to be votes cast and therefore had no effect on the vote on such proposal.

(b) The certified results of the matters voted on at the AGM are set forth below.

Proposal No. 1 - Appointment of two executive directors and eleven non-executive directors, each for a term ending immediately after the next annual general meeting held after their appointment:
