ITEM 8.01 – OTHER EVENTS
On March 24, 2010, the Company's board of directors determined to affect a decrease of the issued and outstanding common stock by the ratio of 1,000 existing shares of common stock for each new 1 share of common stock, effective as of April 1, 2010, without a change in the authorized shares of common stock of the Company (also known as a reverse stock split). Any fractional interests in connection with the payment of this reverse split will be rounded as follows:
| · | If the fractional shares are .50 or greater, then up to the next whole share |
| · | If the fractional shares are .499 or less, then down to the next whole share |
The trading symbol for the Company's common stock as of April 1, 2010 will remain as KEPI.
Under the provisions of the Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, shareholder approval is not required for this reverse split.
The board of directors believes the Company's shareholders will benefit from a capital structure more appropriate for a company of its operational and financial status. The Company has a new strategy to enhance shareholders' value. Part of this new strategy is encompassed by a reverse stock split, which should result in a higher price per share, and corresponding lower number of total shares issued. The board of directors believes that many institutional investors have shied away from making investments in the Company due to the low trading price of its common stock, the large number shares outstanding, and the trading volatility. An increased price, coupled with lower number of common shares outstanding and lower volatility, should help to increase the marketability of its stock to potential new investors. The board of directors believes that these changes will help to better position the Company to capture new growth opportunities and enable it to execute its business plans more effectively.
