On March 19, 2018, Royal Hawaiian Orchards, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), issued a press release announcing the filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission of a Schedule 14C Information Statement to inform the limited partners that limited partners holding approximately 85% of the Partnership’s outstanding Class A Units have adopted resolutions by majority written consent in lieu of a meeting of limited partners approving amendments to the Partnership’s Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, which, among other things, authorize the managing partner to effect pro rata splits and combinations of partnership interests, including reverse splits. The Schedule 14C further informs the limited partners that the managing partner has authorized a reverse split of our Class A Units on the basis of one post-split Unit for each 2000 pre-split Units, and the Partnership has filed a Schedule 13E-3 under Rule 13e-3 for a “going private transaction” in connection with the reverse split. Attached as Exhibit 99.1 is that press release which is incorporated by reference herein.
