REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF OUR COMMON STOCK AT A RATIO OF 1-FOR-100AND AMENDMENT TO OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
TO CHANGE OUR NAME
GENERAL
A. On February 26, 2007, our board of directors unanimously approved, and they recommended that our stockholders approve, a reverse split of our common stock and a change of our company’s name to Vectr Systems, Inc. Our board of directors concluded that the change of name and the reduction of the number of issued and outstanding shares of our common stock would better position our company to raise additional capital. On March 2, 2007, the holders of 36,994,586 issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, constituting approximately 55.25% of our issued and outstanding shares or common stock, approved both of these corporate changes.
The reverse stock split, when implemented, will not change the par value of our common stock. Except for any changes as a result of the treatment of fractional shares, each stockholder who owns 100 or more shares will hold the same percentage of common stock outstanding immediately following the reverse stock split as such stockholder did immediately prior to the reverse stock split. Each stockholder who owns less than 100 shares of our common stock will be rounded up to the next nearest whole share.
CONSENT REQUIRED
Approval of the reverse stock split and the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation required the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock as of March 2, 2007, which our board of directors established as the record date. Holders of approximately 55.25% of the outstanding shares of our common stock as of March 2, 2007 have given their written consent to the reverse stock split and the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation, and, accordingly, the requisite approvals for these actions have been obtained. We do not need to, nor do we intend to, seek additional stockholder approval prior to the effectiveness of these actions. This Information Statement is being mailed to you solely for your information. We are not providing you with a proxy and you are not requested to send a proxy.
EFFECTIVENESS OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
Twenty one days after this Information Statement has first been sent or given to stockholders, the reverse stock split will automatically become effective. The number of authorized shares will not be decreased nor will the par value per share be increased.
AMENDMENT TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
Approximately twenty days after this Information Statement has first been sent or given to stockholders, we will file an Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation changing the name of our company to Vectr Systems, Inc.
CERTAIN RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
The market price per new share of our common stock after the reverse stock split may not rise or remain constant in proportion to the reduction in the number of old shares of our common stock outstanding before the reverse stock split. Accordingly, the total market capitalization of our common stock after the reverse stock split may be lower than the total market capitalization before the reverse stock split. In the future, the market price of our common stock following the reverse stock split may not equal or exceed the market price prior to the reverse stock split. In many cases, the total market capitalization of a
|
|
- 4 - |
company following a reverse stock split is lower than the total market capitalization before the reverse stock split.
PRINCIPAL EFFECTS OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
The reverse stock split will be effected simultaneously for all of our issued and outstanding common stock and the exchange ratio will be the same for all of our common stock. The reverse stock split will affect all of our common stockholders uniformly and will not affect any stockholder's percentage ownership interests in our company or proportionate voting power, except to the extent that the reverse stock split results in fractional shares being rounded up to the next whole share. See "Fractional Shares" below.
The principal effect of the reverse stock split will be to reduce the number of issued and outstanding shares of our common stock from 66,952,430 shares to approximately 669,525 shares.
In addition, the reverse stock split will increase the number of stockholders who own odd lots (less than 100 shares). Stockholders who hold odd lots may experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares and may have greater difficulty in effecting sales.
Fractional Shares.
No scrip or fractional certificates will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Instead, any fractional share that results from the reverse stock split will be rounded up to the next whole share. This is being done to avoid the expense and inconvenience of issuing and transferring fractional shares of our common stock as a result of the reverse stock split.
Authorized Shares.
As of March 2, 2007, we had 100,000,000 shares of common stock authorized and 66,952,430 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Although the number of shares of common stock we are authorized to issue will not change as a result of the reverse stock split, the number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding will be reduced to a number that will be approximately equal to the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the reverse stock split divided by 100.
Potential Anti-Takeover Effect.
Although the increased proportion of unissued authorized shares to issued shares could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect (for example, by permitting issuances that would dilute the stock ownership of a person seeking to effect a change in the composition of our board of directors or contemplating a tender offer or other transaction for the combination of us with another company), the reverse stock split is not a response to any effort of which we are aware to accumulate our shares of common stock or obtain control of our company, nor is it part of a plan by our management to recommend a series of similar amendments to our board of directors and stockholders.
Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split
The following is a summary of the material federal income tax consequences of the reverse stock split. This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial opinions, published positions of the Internal Revenue Service, and all other applicable authorities as of the date of this document, all of which are subject to change (possibly with retroactive effect). This discussion does not describe all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to a holder in light of his or
|
|
- 5 - |
her particular circumstances or to holders subject to special rules (such as dealers in securities, financial institutions, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, foreign individuals and entities, and persons who acquired their common stock as compensation). In addition, this summary is limited to stockholders that hold their common stock as capital assets. This discussion also does not address any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign jurisdiction.
ACCORDINGLY, EACH STOCKHOLDER IS STRONGLY URGED TO CONSULT WITH A TAX ADVISOR TO DETERMINE THE PARTICULAR FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL OR FOREIGN INCOME OR OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH STOCKHOLDER OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT.
We believe that the reverse stock-split will qualify as a “recapitalization” under Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the IRC or as a stock-for-stock exchange under Section 1036(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, no gain or loss should be recognized by a stockholder upon such stockholder’s exchange of pre-reverse stock split shares for post-reverse stock split shares pursuant to the reverse stock split. The aggregate tax basis of the post-reverse stock split shares received in the reverse stock split will be the same as the stockholder’s aggregate tax basis in the pre-reverse stock split shares exchanged therefore. The stockholder’s holding period for the post-reverse stock split shares will include the period during which the stockholder held the pre-reverse stock split shares surrendered in the reverse stock split.
The tax treatment of each stockholder may vary depending upon the particular facts and circumstances of such stockholder. Each stockholder is urged to consult with such stockholder’s own tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences of the reverse stock split. Each stockholder should consult with his or her own tax advisor with respect to all of the potential tax consequences to him or her of the reverse stock split.
PROCEDURE FOR EFFECTING REVERSE STOCK SPLIT AND EXCHANGE OF STOCK CERTIFICATES
Approximately twenty days after this Information Statement has first been sent or given to stockholders, we will file an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation in the form approved by our board of directors and the majority of our stockholders with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. The reverse stock split will automatically become effective twenty one days after this Information Statement has first been sent or given to stockholders. Beginning at the effective time, each certificate representing pre-reverse split common shares will be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of post-reverse split common shares.
Our transfer agent is Allied Stock Transfer, 80 Orville Drive, Suite #100, Bohemia, N.Y. 11716 (Telephone: 631.327.0084; Facsimile: 631.567.0611), is acting as exchange agent for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock certificates. Holders of pre-reverse split common shares must surrender certificates representing pre-reverse split common shares for certificates representing post-reverse split common shares in accordance with the procedures set forth in the letter of transmittal accompanying this Information Statement. No new certificates for post-reverse split common shares will be issued to a stockholder until such stockholder has surrendered such stockholder's outstanding certificate(s), together with the properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, to the exchange agent. Our company will pay all fees, including the transfer agent's fee, associated with certificate exchange and delivery.
STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S).
