Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
Pursuant to the reverse stock split, announced June 4, 2024, each twelve (12) shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock, $0.00001 par value per share, will be automatically combined and converted into one (1) outstanding share of common stock, $0.00001 par value per share. In addition, the current publicly traded common stock purchase warrants will be adjusted under the current terms of the warrant agreement so that each 12 warrants will be entitled to acquire one share of common stock at a revised purchase price per share of $60.00.
The Company will continue to be subject to periodic reporting and other requirements under the Securities and Exchange Act and the common stock and common stock purchase warrants will continue to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market “CEAD” and “CEADW,” respectively.
The purpose of the reverse stock split is to maintain the Company’s listing of its common stock and publicly traded common stock purchase warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company, however, cannot assure that the price of its common stock after the reverse stock split will reflect the reverse split ratio, that the price per share following the reverse split will be maintained for any period of time, or that the price will remain above the pre-split trading price.
Shares of the Company’s common stock have been assigned a new CUSIP number (86887P309). The common stock purchase warrants will retain their current CUSIP number.
The common stock is expected to begin trading on a split-adjusted basis, beginning on Friday, June 7, 2024.
No fractional shares will be issued and any fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split will be rounded up to the next whole share. Stockholders holding shares of CEAD common stock at registered brokerage firms, should consult with their broker for further information on their account. Stockholders who hold shares with our transfer agent will receive information in the mail about their accounts over the next few days. On June 4, 2024, the Company filed an amendment to its certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse split of the outstanding shares of common stock at the rate of one new share for every 12 shares then outstanding, rounding up to the next whole share for fractional shares resulting from the reverse split.
A copy of the amendment to the certificate of incorporation of the Company is attached, which shows the reverse split.
