ACTION 1
TO AUTHORIZE THE FILING OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO EFFECT A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
On February 22, 2010, subject to stockholder approval, the Board of Directors, believing it to be in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders, authorized an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s Common Stock at a ratio of one-for-three (the “Reverse Split”) and recommended that it be submitted to its stockholders for approval.
The form of amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to effect the reverse stock split is attached as Exhibit A.
Reasons for the Reverse Split
The Company’s Board of Director’s believes that the Company presently has outstanding an exceedingly large number of shares of Common Stock, especially when considering the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued in the future as a result of warrant exercises and conversions of debentures . It is anticipated that the reverse stock split, if implemented, will (i) reduce the total number of outstanding shares of Company common stock to a more customary range for public companies, and (ii) allow the Company’s Common Stock to trade at a higher per-share price. With the Company’s Common Stock recently trading as low as $0.0181 per share, relatively small moves in absolute terms in the per-share trading price of our Common Stock translates into disproportionately large swings in the trading price on a percentage basis. The Company believes that these swings tend to bear little, if any, relationship to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and may negatively affect the price of the Company’s Common Stock. Furthermore, the Company believes that an increase in the per-share trading price may enhance the acceptability and marketability of our Common Stock to the financial community and investing public.
Potential Effects of a Reverse Stock Split
The immediate effect of a reverse stock split will be to reduce the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding. The Company also believes that the reverse split will increase the trading price of the Common Stock. There is, however, no assurance that a reverse stock split will increase the trading price of the Company’s Common Stock or increase the trading price on a permanent basis. Furthermore, any increase in price may not be proportionate the reduction in the number of outstanding shares of common stock, which could cause a decrease in the Company’s aggregate market capitalization.
In addition, possible future dilution to the Company’s existing common stockholders may be increased. Currently, the holders of the Company’s common stock own approximately 7.5% of the Company’s authorized shares of common stock. If the reverse stock split is implemented in a ratio of 1 for 3, the current holders of the Company’s common stock would own only approximately 2.5% of the Company’s authorized shares of common stock.
The decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding could decrease the liquidity of our Common Stock. In addition, the reverse stock split will likely increase the number of Company stockholder owning “odd-lots” (that is holdings of less than 100 shares). Stockholders owing odd-lots typically experience an increase in the per-share cost of selling shares and may also experience increased difficulty in selling the shares that are an odd-lot. For example, brokerage commissions are typically higher for sales of odd-lots.
