Vapor Corp. Announces Reverse Stock Split

DANIA BEACH, Fla., March 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Vapor Corp. (OTC Pink – Current Information Tier: VPCO) (the “Company”), a leading U.S.-based distributor and retailer of vaporizers, e-liquids, e-cigarettes and e-hookahs, today announced that effective at 5:00 pm, Eastern Time, on March 8, 2016 (the “Effective Time”), the Company will effect a one-for-70 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock. On February 1, 2016, the Company’s stockholders approved (1) an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split at a ratio between 1-for-10 and 1-for-70 and (2) an increase in the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance. The Board of Directors approved the implementation of a reverse stock split and determined the appropriate reverse stock split ratio to be 1-for-70. The Company’s common stock will be quoted on the OTC Pink-Current Information Tier on March 9, 2016 on a post-split basis.

As a result of the reverse stock split, every 70 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time will be consolidated into one issued and outstanding share, except to the extent that the reverse stock split results in any of the Company’s stockholders owning a fractional share, which would be rounded up to the next highest whole share

Quotation of the Company’s common stock will continue, on a split-adjusted basis, with the opening of the markets on Wednesday, March 9, 2016, under the trading symbol “VPCOD” under a new CUSIP number 922099601. The reverse stock split reduces the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding from approximately 973 million pre-reverse split shares to approximately 13.9 million post-reverse split.

Stockholders of record who hold physical certificates should submit their old certificates to the Company’s transfer agent, Equity Stock Transfer, LLC, in order to obtain new certificates. Stockholders owning shares via a broker or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, subject to brokers’ particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the reverse stock split. Equity Stock Transfer, LLC can be reached at (212) 575 5757.
