Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Verify the effective date of the increased authorized share count (200,000,000 common shares) for potential dilution analysis.
- Confirm the tenure of the newly elected Class III directors (Elizabeth Dávila and Joshua H. Levine) through 2015.
- Note the significant number of broker non-votes (12,245,081) on director elections and executive compensation, indicating a large block of shares held by brokers without voting instructions on these specific matters.
- Review the upcoming fiscal year-end (June 30, 2013) for which Grant Thornton LLP has been appointed as auditor.
