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

A special meeting of shareholders of Tribute Pharmaceuticals Canada Inc. (“Tribute”) was held on February 1, 2016 in Toronto, Ontario (the “Meeting”). A total of 87,923,807 common shares of Tribute, out of a total of 126,252,792 common shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote as of the close of business on December 31, 2015, the record date of the Meeting (the "Record Date"), were present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting, and there were holders of at least 15% of Tribute’s common shares present in person or by proxy at the Meeting, which constituted a quorum. A summary of the voting results for the proposal submitted to a vote of the shareholders of Tribute, which is described in detail in Tribute’s Notice of Special Meeting and Management Information Circular dated January 5, 2016 (the “Information Circular”) and first mailed to Tribute’s shareholders on or about January 11, 2016, is set forth below.

Adoption of the Arrangement Resolution

As previously disclosed, on June 8, 2015, Tribute, POZEN Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pozen”), Aralez Pharmaceuticals plc, a public limited company formed under the laws of Ireland (formerly known as Aguono Limited, a private limited company formed under the laws of Ireland, and subsequently renamed Aralez Pharmaceuticals Limited prior to its re-registration as a public limited company) (“Former Parent”), Aralez Pharmaceuticals Holdings Limited, a private limited company formed under the laws of Ireland (formerly known as Trafwell Limited) (“Holdings”), ARLZ US Acquisition Corp., a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Former US Merger Sub”), and ARLZ CA Acquisition Corp., a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada (“Can Merger Sub”), entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Arrangement (“Agreement”). The Agreement was subsequently amended by Amendment No. 1, dated as of August 19, 2015, by and among Tribute, Former Parent, Holdings, Former US Merger Sub, ARLZ US Acquisition II Corp., a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware (“US Merger Sub”), Can Merger Sub and Pozen (“Amendment No. 1”), and by Amendment No. 2, dated as of December 7, 2015, by and among Tribute, Former Parent, Holdings, Aralez Pharmaceuticals Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada (“Parent” or “Aralez”), US Merger Sub, Can Merger Sub and Pozen (“Amendment No. 2” and, together with the Agreement and Amendment No. 1, the “Merger Agreement”).

In order to effect the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, US Merger Sub, an indirect subsidiary of Parent, will be merged with and into Pozen (the “Merger”). Pozen will be the surviving corporation and, through the Merger, will become an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. The acquisition of Pozen will be effected under Delaware law. In accordance with the Merger Agreement, immediately preceding the Merger, Can Merger Sub and Tribute will amalgamate by way of a court approved plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement” and together with the Merger, the “Merger Transactions”). The legal existence of Tribute will survive the amalgamation, and Tribute and Can Merger Sub will continue as one corporation (“Amalco”), with the property of Tribute and Can Merger Sub becoming the property of Amalco. Upon completion of the Arrangement, Tribute (as Amalco) will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

At the Meeting, the shareholders of Tribute voted upon and approved the special resolution (the “Arrangement Resolution”) set forth in the Information Circular approving, without limitation, the Merger Agreement and the Merger Transactions. Over 99% of the votes cast were in favor of the proposal. The results of the votes on this proposal were as follows:

Votes For		Votes Against
86,099,720		166,650

The Arrangement Resolution was also approved by at least a majority of the Minority Shareholders of Tribute. "Minority Shareholders" means the shareholders of Tribute as of the Record Date other than Robert Harris and Scott Langille.

The foregoing description of the Merger Transactions, the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Tribute on June 12, 2015 (with respect to the Agreement), and Exhibit 2.1 and Exhibit 2.2 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Tribute on December 8, 2015 (with respect to Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2, respectively) and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 8.01 Other Events

On February 1, 2016, Tribute issued a press release announcing that the Arrangement Resolution had been approved by the shareholders of Tribute. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
