Shareholder Rights Plan

 

The Company is authorized to issue up to 5.0 million shares of preferred stock, of which 1.4 million shares have been designated as Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock in connection with the adoption of a rights agreement (see below). As of June 30, 2011 and 2010, no shares of preferred stock were issued or outstanding. The Company's Board of Directors may issue preferred stock in one or more series from time to time. The Board of Directors is authorized to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof.

 

On July 18, 2011, the Board of Directors adopted a stockholder rights plan (the "Rights Agreement"). Pursuant to the Rights Agreement, the Board of Directors declared a dividend distribution of one right for each share of common stock. Each right entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock at an initial exercise price of $350 per share. The Rights Agreement is intended to assure that all of the Company's stockholders receive fair and equal treatment in the event of any proposed takeover of the Company and to protect stockholders' interests in the event the Company is confronted with coercive or unfair takeover tactics.

 

Rights become exercisable after ten days following the acquisition by a person or group of beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the Company's outstanding common stock. If such a person or group acquires beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the common stock, each right (other than such person's or group's rights, which will become void) will entitle the holder to purchase, at the right's then-current exercise price, common stock having a market value equal to twice the exercise price. In addition, if the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction after a person has acquired 10% of more of our outstanding common stock, each right will entitle its holder to purchase, at the right's then-current exercise price, a number of the acquiring company's common shares having a market value of twice the exercise price. In certain circumstances, the rights may be redeemed by the Company at an initial redemption price of $0.001 per right. If not redeemed, the rights will expire on July 16, 2012.
