Reincorporation

 

On May 15, 2015, Superior Industries International, Inc. (the “Company”) changed its state of incorporation from California to Delaware (the “Reincorporation”), following board approval of the Reincorporation on May 5, 2015 and shareholder approval of the Reincorporation at the Company’s 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 5, 2015 (the “Annual Meeting”). This Reincorporation was effected on May 15, 2015 by merging the Company with and into a wholly owned Delaware subsidiary established for this purpose. Superior Industries International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Superior Delaware”), is deemed to be the successor issuer of Superior Industries International, Inc., a California corporation (“Superior California”), under Rule 12g-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. A copy of the Agreement and Plan of Merger of Superior Delaware and Superior California is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1.

 

The Reincorporation did not result in any change in the name, business, management, fiscal year, accounting, location of the principal executive officers, assets or liabilities of the Company. In addition, the Company’s common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE under the symbol “SUP.” Stockholders are not required to exchange Company shares in connection with the Reincorporation since shares in Superior California are deemed to represent an equal number of shares in Superior Delaware. As of May 15, 2015, the effective date of the Reincorporation, the Company’s authorized capital stock consisted of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. As of May 15, 2015, there were 26,648,726 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

 

Upon the effective date of the Reincorporation, the rights of the Company’s stockholders began to be governed by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Certificate of Incorporation of Superior Delaware attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and the Bylaws of Superior Delaware attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2. The form of common stock certificate of Superior Delaware is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1.

 

Additional information about the Reincorporation and a comparison of the rights of shareholders of Superior California and stockholders of Superior Delaware can be found in the Company’s revised Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A for the 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 28, 2015.
