(PINKSHEETS: RMLX), the hospitality in-room expert providing Internet-based Media, Entertainment and Business Solutions, today announced that at its annual meeting of stockholders held earlier today at its headquarters in Denver, Colorado, all of its current members of the board of directors were re-elected to serve for an additional one-year term.
The Board members are:
Michael S. Wasik of Superior, CO, CEO of Roomlinx, Inc.
Judson Just of Downers Grove, IL, Portfolio Manager for Peak 6 Investments
Christopher Blisard of Littleton, CO, COO of Circadence, Inc.
The amendment to the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance thereunder from 25,000,000 to 120,000,000 has been approved;
The amendment and restatement of the Company's Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's Common Stock from 245,000,000 to 1,500,000,000 has been approved;
The amendment of the Company's Articles of Incorporation effecting a 1-for-200 reverse stock split of the Company's stock has NOT been approved;
And the appointment of Stark Winter Schenkein & Co LLP as independent auditors of the Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008 has been ratified.
"The authorization of the additional shares will allow us to convert the Series C Preferred stock into Common Stock eliminating the 6% dividend payment on the $2.5MM investment completed last year," said Michael Wasik CEO. "The Board is pleased with this conversion as it decreases expenses and enhances profitability. This is important as we begin the installation of the Grand Bohemian Hotel in Asheville, NC this month; the first Kessler Collection property to be installed."
