National Datacomputer, Inc. (“NDI”) (OTC Bulletin Board: NDCP) a leading provider of mobile computing solutions, announced on July 31, 2008, that the Company’s Board of Directors has approved a reverse stock split and established a ratio of 1-for-15. This move followed a vote at NDI’s Annual Shareholders’ Meeting on June 24, 2008, in which shareholders authorized the Board to effect the reverse stock split. Upon market open on July 31, 2008, NDI’s common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis under the new trading symbol "NDCP.” A copy of the Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation, as filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware and a copy of the press release announcing the stock split are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
The number of shares of NDI common stock authorized was reduced from 50,000,000 shares as of July 30, 2008, to approximately 3,333,333 shares post-split. The number of shares reserved for issuance under NDI’s stock option plans will also be reduced proportionately. As a result of the reverse stock split, every 15 shares of common stock of NDI that is issued and outstanding shall be automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share, without any change in the par value of such shares. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders who would be entitled to fractional shares will receive cash in lieu of receiving fractional shares. The reverse stock split affects all shares of common stock, stock options and warrants of NDI outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time of the reverse stock split.
Stockholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or "street name" will not be required to take any action to effect the exchange of their shares. Stockholders of record who hold share certificates will receive a letter of transmittal requesting that they surrender their old stock certificates for new stock certificates reflecting the adjusted number of shares as a result of the reverse stock split. American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, NDI’s transfer agent, will act as the exchange agent for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock certificates.
