Cytori Announces New Annual Stockholders Meeting Date for July 11
Annual Meeting Adjourned to Provide Additional Time to Obtain Approval of Key Business
SAN DIEGO, CA — (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) Cytori Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CYTX) today announced that it reconvened its annual meeting of stockholders on Thursday, June 27, 2019 and adjourned the meeting until Thursday, July 11, 2019, at 9:00 a.m., Central Time. The annual meeting was adjourned to allow the Company’s stockholders an additional opportunity to evaluate Proposal 4, relating to the approval of a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock. Although more than 69% of the votes cast were in favor of the reverse stock split (Proposal 4), this constitutes approximately 48% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock and approval requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock.
The annual meeting was adjourned until 9:00 a.m., Central Time, on July 11, 2019 at 4200 Marathon Blvd., Suite 200, Austin Texas 78756, the Company’s offices in Austin, Texas. The record date for the annual meeting remains March 29, 2019. Stockholders that have yet to vote are requested to do so prior to the new July 11 meeting date and are encouraged to vote in favor of the reverse stock split as outlined in the Company’s proxy materials.
Stockholders who have previously sent in proxy cards or given instructions to brokers do not need to re-cast their votes unless they want to change their vote. Proxies previously submitted in respect of the meeting will be voted at the adjourned meeting unless properly revoked.
If stockholders have questions, need help voting shares, or want to change a vote in favor of Proposal 4, please call The Proxy Advisory Group, LLC, which is assisting the Company in this matter at 1-888-557-7699 or 1-888-55PROXY.
