At the special meeting, First Community’s shareholders were asked to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the issuance of shares of common stock of First Community as consideration for the merger with Savannah River and, if necessary or appropriate, a proposal to authorize the board of directors to adjourn the special meeting to allow time for further solicitation of proxies in the event there were insufficient votes present at the special meeting, in person or by proxy, to approve the issuance of shares.
