Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

 

The Company held a Special Meeting of Shareholders on March 13, 2013.  Set forth below are the final results for the proposal submitted to shareholder vote.

 

Proposal No. 1 – Votes cast to authorize the Board of Directors to use its discretionary authority to affect a reverse stock split,  of not less than 1–for-3 and not more than 1-for-6 to the common stock, $1.00 par value, of the Corporation, was approved as follows:

 

For Against Abstain
7,277,866 1,324,620 41,786

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On March 13, 2013, at a Special Meeting of Stockholders, the Company’s stockholders approved a proposal that authorized the Company’s Board of Directors, in its discretion, to effect a reverse stock split by a ratio of not less than 1-for-3 and not more than 1-for-6 of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (“Common Stock”). The Company’s Board of Directors approved the implementation of a reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-6 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). As of the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split, every six shares of “old” Common Stock will be converted into one “new” share of Common Stock. Following the Reverse Stock Split, the “new” shares of Common Stock and that trading in the Common Stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market on a split adjusted basis would begin at the opening of trading on March 15, 2013 with the symbol of DRAM.

 

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, holders of certificates representing shares of “old” Common Stock prior to the effective date have the right to receive, upon surrender of those certificates, “new” shares of Common Stock at the ratio of one share of “new” Common Stock for every six shares of “old” Common Stock. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Instead, holders of “old” shares of Common Stock who otherwise would have received fractional shares will receive the number of shares rounded up to the next whole number.

 

Existing stockholders holding Common Stock certificates will receive a Letter of Transmittal from the Company’s transfer agent, American Stock Transfer and Trust Company with specific instructions regarding the exchange of shares. Additional information regarding the effects of the Reverse Stock Split may be found in the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 31, 2013.
