On February 27, 2013, Authentidate Holding Corp. (the “company”) reconvened its previously adjourned special meeting of common stockholders and, without conducting any business, further adjourned the special meeting until April 5, 2013, at 10:00 a.m. at the company’s corporate headquarters, located at Connell Corporate Center, 300 Connell Drive, 5^th Floor, Berkeley Heights, New Jersey 07922. The record date for stockholders entitled to vote at the special meeting remains January 7, 2013. The special meeting is being further adjourned to continue to provide the company with additional time to solicit proxies from its stockholders to establish the requisite quorum for the conduct of business at the special meeting. A majority of the company’s shares of common stock outstanding at the close of business on the record date of January 7, 2013 and entitled to vote at the special meeting must be present at the special meeting, either in person or by proxy, to establish a quorum. As of February 27, 2013, approximately 24 percent of the Company’s outstanding common shares have been voted in connection with the proposals to be considered at the special meeting.

On March 1, 2013, the company issued a press release announcing the adjournment of the meeting and a copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the information contained therein is incorporated herein by reference.
