Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At a Special Meeting of Stockholders held on November 17, 2015, the stockholders of the Company voted to approve an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effect a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, together with a corresponding reduction in the total number of shares of authorized stock. The vote on such matter was as follows:

 

Votes for

     33,597,539   

Votes against

     3,386,220   

Abstentions

     42,311   

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, each 10 shares of issued and outstanding Echelon common stock will be converted into 1 share of Echelon common stock, and if applicable, cash in lieu of fractional shares that would otherwise have been issued. The reverse split will reduce the number of shares of Echelon’s outstanding common stock from approximately 44.1 million shares to approximately 4.1 million shares and it will also reduce the authorized number of shares of the Company’s stock from 100 million to 10 million. The reverse split is intended to become effective on December 7, 2015 and the Company’s split-adjusted common shares are expected to begin trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market on December 8, 2015.

A copy of the press release announcing the reverse stock split is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
