Introduction
This Amendment No. 4 to Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) as a final amendment to that certain Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 filed by Lawrence J. Cohen, Jay Chazanoff and Peter Gray (the “Filing Persons”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 5, 2010, as amended on December 10, 2010, December 23, 2010 and December 30, 2010, in connection with the going private transaction by DVL, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“DVL”), pursuant to that certain definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A (the “Proxy Statement”) filed by DVL with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 30, 2010 pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and that certain Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 initially filed on October 26, 2010, and amended on December 10, 2010, December 23, 2010, December 30, 2010, and February 8, 2011 by DVL.
Based solely on publicly available information, at the Special Annual Meeting of stockholders held on January 28, 2011, a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of DVL’s common stock approved an amendment to DVL’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a 1-for-7,500 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”). On February 7, 2011, DVL filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State to effect the Reverse Stock Split. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 7,500 shares of pre-split Common Stock issued and outstanding on February 7, 2011, the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split, was converted into one post-split share of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”). Following the Reverse Stock Split, the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding will be reduced to approximately six thousand shares.
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, holders of certificates representing shares of pre-split Common Stock prior to the effective date have the right to receive, upon surrender of those certificates, post-split shares of Common Stock at the ratio of one share of post-split Common Stock for every 7,500 shares of pre-split Common Stock. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, holders of pre-split shares of Common Stock who otherwise would have received fractional shares will receive an amount in cash equal to $0.14 per pre-split share.
Based solely on publicly available information, the Reverse Stock Split reduced the number of record holders of the Common Stock (as defined by Rule 12g5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”)) to 218. It is expected that DVL will file a Form 15 with the SEC on February 8, 2011 to terminate registration of the Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the 1934 Act and to suspend its reporting obligations under the 1934 Act. Upon the filing of the Form 15, DVL’s obligation to file periodic reports with the SEC will be suspended.
