On May 25, 2006, the Registrant, formerly a Delaware corporation, completed its reincorporation in Nevada by a merger of the Registrant with and into its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kent International Holdings, Inc., a newly formed Nevada corporation. The reincorporation effected a change in the Registrant’s legal domicile from Delaware to Nevada and a change in the name of the Registrant from Cortech, Inc. to Kent International Holdings, Inc. The Registrant’s business, assets, liabilities, net worth and headquarters were unchanged as a result of the reincorporation and the directors and officers of the Registrant prior to the reincorporation continued to serve the Registrant after the reincorporation. In addition, the Registrant’s stockholders automatically became stockholders of Kent International Holdings, Inc. on a share-for-share basis. The Registrant’s shares will continue to be quoted on the Pink Sheets under a new trading symbol that is yet to be assigned. The Registrant will announce the new trading symbol via a press release.
The reincorporation was approved by stockholders holding the majority of the outstanding common shares of the Registrant on May 22, 2006 at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. A Certificate of Merger and Articles of Merger were filed with the Secretaries of State of Delaware and Nevada, respectively, on May 25, 2006, to effect the reincorporation.
