Item 5.03
|
AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR
|
Southwall Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) today announced that it has filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to (i) effect a 1-for-5 reverse stock split (“Reverse Stock Split”), effective on March 14, 2011 (the “Effective Time”), and (ii) reduce the number of authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), under the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, from 50 million to 10 million to reflect the Reverse Stock Split ratio.
As previously disclosed, at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company held on May 12, 2010, the stockholders approved a proposal to authorize the Board of Directors, in its discretion, to amend the Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effectuate the Reverse Stock Split and reduction in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. The Board of Directors voted to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split and reduction in authorized shares, to be effective March 14, 2011. For further information about the Reverse Stock Split and reduction in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, please refer to the Company’s definitive proxy statement as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 8, 2010.
At the Effective Time, every five shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will automatically be converted into one share of Common Stock. In lieu of fractional shares, stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares because they hold a number of shares not evenly divisible by the Reverse Stock Split ratio will automatically be entitled to receive an additional fraction of a share of Common Stock to round up to the next whole share. Further, shares of preferred stock and options outstanding as of the Effective Time will be adjusted in accordance with the terms thereof. These adjustments will include changes to the number of shares of Common Stock that may be obtained upon exercise or conversion of these securities, and changes to the applicable conversion or exercise price.
The Certificate of Amendment to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the Company is filed as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. The press release announcing the Reverse Stock Split is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
