PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS |
PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS | NOTE 11 PREFERRED STOCK PURCHASE RIGHTS The Company has a preferred stock purchase rights plan (the "Rights Plan") and each share of common stock has one-half of a preferred share purchase right (a "Right"). Under the terms of the Rights Plan, if a person or group acquires 15% or more of the outstanding common stock, each Right will entitle its holder (other than such person or members of such group) to purchase, at the Right's then current exercise price, a number of shares of the Company's common stock having a market value of twice such price. In addition, under certain circumstances if the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction, each Right will entitle its holder to purchase, at the Right's then current exercise price, a number of the acquiring company's common shares having a market value of twice such price. Each Right entitles the holder under certain circumstances to buy one one-thousandth of a share of Series B junior participating preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, at an exercise price of $150. Each share of Series B junior participating preferred stock will entitle its holder to 2,000 votes and will have a minimum preferential quarterly dividend payment equal to the greater of $1 per share or 2,000 times the amount paid to holders of common stock. Currently, 99,000 shares of Series B junior participating preferred stock have been reserved. The Rights will expire on April 7, 2013, unless previously exercised or redeemed at the option of the Board of Directors for $.01 per Right. As of the date of this report, the Board of Directors does not intend to renew or replace such plan.
