On November 15, 2018, the Amendment was approved by written consent by the Company’s stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding capital stock as of the record date for such action, which was October 31, 2018 (the “Record Date”). No other provision of the Plan was amended. The Company has filed a preliminary Information Statement on Schedule 14C (the “Information Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding the Amendment, and a definitive Information Statement will be subsequently filed and will be mailed to stockholders of record as of the Record Date.
