October 30, 2013, 5:23 am -- /EPR NETWORK/ -- Herrington Global today announced the results of its Special Stakeholders Meeting at which the stakeholders voted on certain proposals in connection with the Company's previously announced debt exchange offer. Holders of shares comprising a quorum of the Company's stakeholders were present or represented by proxy at the meeting.
At the Special Stakeholders Meeting, Stakeholders approved:
(1) the amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation increasing the authorized shares of its stock to four billion,
(2) the issuance of the consideration offered to holders of notes in the debt exchange and
(3) the potential issuance of shares of stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for, common stock in connection with future debt exchange transactions in an amount up to 365 million shares.
Stakeholder's approval of proposals (1) and (2) was a condition for the completion of the debt exchange. In addition, Stakeholders passed a non-binding resolution at the Special Herrington Global Stakeholders Meeting advising the Company to terminate its Stakeholders Rights Plan. As previously announced, the Herrington Global Board of Directors, in the exercise of its fiduciary duties, will consider the outcome of the advisory vote in determining whether to retain or terminate the Stakeholders Rights Plan.
