Stockholders of record of Company’s common stock at the close of business on November 8, 2021, the planned record date for the 2021 Annual Meeting, will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the 2021 Annual Meeting. The Company, however, reserves the right to change the record date prior to the 2021 Annual Meeting.
Since the date of this year’s annual meeting has been changed by more than 30 calendar days from the date of the previous year’s annual stockholder meeting, stockholders of the Company who wish to have a proposal considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2021 Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws must ensure that such proposal is delivered to or mailed to and received by the Company’s Secretary at AeroCentury Corp., 3000 El Camino Real, Bldg. 4, Suite 200, Palo Alto, CA 94306 on or before the close of business on October 18, 2021, which the Company has determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and distribute its proxy materials.
Any stockholder who intends to submit a director nomination or who intends to submit a proposal regarding any other matter of business at the 2021 Annual Meeting other than in accordance with Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act or otherwise must similarly make sure that such nomination or proposal and related notice, including any notice on Schedule 14N, are delivered to, or mailed and received at, the Company’s principal executive offices on or before the close of business on October 18, 2021.
In addition to complying with the October18, 2021 deadline, stockholder director nominations and stockholder proposals intended to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2021 Annual Meeting must also comply with all applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules, including Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, Delaware corporate law and the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Bylaws in order to be eligible for inclusion in the proxy materials for the 2021 Annual Meeting. Any director nominations and stockholder proposals received after the October 18, 2021 deadline will be considered untimely and will not be considered for inclusion in the proxy material for the 2021 Annual Meeting nor will it be considered at the 2021 Annual Meeting.
