I have a small position in a really crappy biotech that I have just let ride down. Should have just gotten rid of it months ago but held on.
They just recently closed a redeemable convertable preferred share offering of 50,000 shares of class A stock and 50,000 shares of class B stock for $30 million with the class B shares having 45,000 voting rights per share.
That is 2.25 Billion votes for a company with 90 million shares currently. They are going to vote on a reverse split, after which the preferred shares will be redeemable for 105% of the original cost?
"Each holder of the Preferred Stock shall have the right to cause the Company to redeem all or part of their shares of the Preferred Stock from the earlier of receipt of stockholder approval of the reverse stock split or of 90 days following the original issue date until 120 days following the original issue date, the “Redemption Date,” in cash at a redemption price equal to 105% of the stated value plus an amount equal to accumulated but unpaid dividends, if any, on such shares (whether or not earned or declared, but excluding interest on such dividends) up to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. The proceeds of the Offerings will be held in an escrow account until the expiration of the redemption period for the Series A Preferred Stock or the Series B Preferred Stock, as applicable, subject to the earlier payment to redeeming holders. Upon expiration of the redemption period, any proceeds remaining in escrow will be disbursed to the Company"
This seems so far out there as far as legal. I mean it seems about as legal as shoplifting.
