SECOND NOTICE: WE NEED YOUR VOTE!
YOU OWN SHARES IN UNIVERSAL SECURITY INSTRUMENTS, INC. (USI) AND NOW IS THE TIME TO VOTE FOR YOU TO RECEIVE A CASH DISTRIBUTION.
USI’s Board of Directors is asking you to vote FOR the sale of our assets to Feit Electric, which could provide you with a cash dividend of $2.51–$2.58 per share — an 83% to 88% premium over the October 29, 2024 closing price, the day the sale agreement with Feit was signed.
WE CANNOT DISTRIBUTE THIS CASH DIVIDEND TO YOU WITHOUT THE REQUIRED VOTES.
We have not received enough responses to proceed but you still have time to vote.
USI’s Board of Directors recommends voting FOR:
xThe Asset Sale
xThe Plan of Dissolution
xThe Charter Amendment
Failure to vote FOR these proposals by the March 6 deadline could lead to a decline in our share price, delisting USI from the NYSE, limiting access to shareholder information and significantly reducing your ability to buy and sell shares.
Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), the proxy advisory firm, recommended that you vote FOR the proposals.
