EX-99 2 l12839aexv99.txt EXHIBIT 99 Exhibit 99 PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DATE: March 14, 2005 COMPANY: Central Federal Corporation 2923 Smith Road Fairlawn, Ohio 44333 CONTACT: Mark S. Allio Vice Chairman, President and CEO PHONE: 330.576.1334 FAX: 330.666.7959 CENTRAL FEDERAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES STOCKHOLDER PASSAGE OF REVERSE STOCK SPLIT Fairlawn, Ohio - March 14, 2005 - Central Federal Corporation (Nasdaq: GCFC) announced stockholders passed a 1-for-325 reverse stock split at a special meeting of stockholders held today. The Company had announced in October 2004 that it would ask stockholders to approve a reverse stock split in an effort to ease the economic and management burden of complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and federal securities laws. The Board of Directors established a reverse stock split ratio of 1-to-500 shares and set $14.50 per share as a fair price to compensate stockholders who held fewer than 500 shares on the effective date and who would no longer remain stockholders of the Company after the effective date. As discussed in the Company's February 2, 2005 press release, significant numbers of individuals had purchased share lots in quantities of 499 or fewer shares. The dramatic increase in shares held by stockholders who owned fewer than 500 shares had increased substantially the cost of the Company's effecting its going private transaction. As discussed in the Company's February 11, 2005 press release, the Board of Directors revised the ratio of the reverse stock split to 1-to-325 in an effort to reduce the aggregate cost of repurchasing shares. Moreover, the Board also reserved the right to abandon the transaction following stockholder approval in the interest of the Company and its shareholders if the cost of the transaction is expected to exceed $2 million. The Board is expected to make a decision within two weeks about whether to proceed with the reverse stock split transaction.
