Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On October 28, 2010, Stamps.com Inc. ("Stamps.com") issued a press release setting forth its financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2010. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and hereby incorporated by reference.
The information in the press release is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On October 28, 2010, the Board of Directors of Stamps.com approved a one-time special $2.00 per share dividend for all of the stockholders of Stamps.com. In order to prevent that dividend from diluting or enlarging the rights of the holders (including named executive officers) of outstanding stock options and purchase rights under certain Stamps.com employee plans, including its equity plans, in compliance with those plans the Board of Directors approved a reduction in the exercise or purchase price of affected options and rights in a manner that is both value neutral and that will not result in any additional stock-based compensation expense. To the extent that the exercise price cannot be adjusted in this manner without adverse tax consequences, the Board of Directors approved the making of value neutral cash payments that will be expensed as compensation. The option adjustments and cash payments will both be determined as of the ex-dividend date for the one-time special dividend.
