NOTICE
OF INFORMATIONAL MEETING
Regarding Proposed Conversion to an LLC
August 13, 2004
Dear Golden Oval Eggs Shareholder:
We have now completed the SEC registration process for our proposed conversion to a Limited Liability Company (LLC). We will be holding a Special Meeting of Members on August 31, 2004 at our Renville offices to vote upon the proposal. Under separate cover, you will be receiving an "Information Statement—Prospectus" containing detailed information regarding the conversion and the formal Special Meeting notice, along with ballot materials that may be returned prior to or at the Special Meeting.
You may recall that, in April, we held a number of informational meetings in order to help members understand the proposed conversion and its expected impact on Golden Oval and our members. We have now scheduled a final informational meeting the week prior to the conversion vote in order to provide members with the latest information regarding the proposed conversion and its expected impact. If desired, members will also be able to return the ballot materials (again, these are being sent under separate cover) at the informational meeting. We strongly recommend your attendance at the following meeting:
Thursday, August 26 | Best Western Hotel and Restaurant 1111 Range Street North Mankato, Minnesota | 1:30 PM |
If you have questions, please call us at 888.744.8182. We look forward to seeing you at the informational meeting!
Sincerely,
| | |
