VOTE REQUIRED

 

Our Bylaws provide that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of common stock is required to authorize an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to effect an alteration in the total number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock if that alteration occurs simultaneously with a reverse split of the common stock and the alteration is not pro rata with the reverse. Therefore, a total of 1,198,909,099 shares, representing approximately 50.1% of our outstanding shares of common stock, must be voted in favor of the Amendment in order for approval to be granted.

 

AMENDMENT TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

 

On March 1, 2013, our Board of Directors approved, subject to receiving the approval of the stockholders of our common stock, the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation in the form of Exhibit A attached to this Information Statement, to effect a decrease in the total number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock from 2,500,000,000 shares to 25,000,000, to occur simultaneously with a reverse of 500-to-1. We have obtained stockholder approval for the amendment by the affirmative vote of stockholders owning 1,630,849,811 shares, representing 68.0% of our outstanding shares of common stock on the record date of February 22, 2013. The proposed decreases will not become effective until the Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of Micro Imaging Technology, Inc., in the form of Exhibit A, is filed with the California Secretary of State. We expect to make the appropriate filing as soon as practicable.

 

ACTION — AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S CERTIFICATE OF

INCORPORATION TO EFFECT A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF COMMON STOCK

 

Our board of directors and holders of a majority of the outstanding voting power of the Company’s capital stock have adopted resolutions approving an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split of our issued and outstanding common stock, as described below.

 

The form of the amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Stock Split of our issued and outstanding common stock will be substantially as set forth on Appendix A (subject to any changes required by applicable law). The Reverse Stock Split would permit (but not require) our board of directors to effect a reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock at a ratio of one-for-five hundred (1:500). Our board of directors reserves the right to elect to abandon the Reverse Stock Split, if it determines, in its sole discretion, that the Reverse Stock Split is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

 

Upon effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, each 500 shares of existing common stock, as determined by our board of directors, will be combined into one share of common stock. Any fractional shares will be rounded up to the next whole number.

 

Background and Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split; Potential Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split

 

Our board of directors is effecting the Reverse Stock Split with the primary intent of increasing the market price of our common stock and to make our common stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other investors. The Company currently does not have any plans, arrangements or understandings, written or oral, to issue any of the authorized but unissued shares that would become available as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. In addition to increasing the market price of our common stock, the Reverse Stock Split would also reduce certain of our costs, as discussed below. Accordingly, for these and other reasons discussed below, we believe that effecting the Reverse Stock Split is in the Company’s and our stockholders’ best interests.

 

 
 

 

We believe that the Reverse Stock Split will make our common stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other investors, as we have been advised that the current market price of our common stock may affect its acceptability to certain institutional investors, professional investors and other members of the investing public. Many brokerage houses and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. In addition, some of those policies and practices may function to make the processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers. Moreover, because brokers’ commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher-priced stocks, the current average price per share of common stock can result in individual stockholders paying transaction costs representing a higher percentage of their total share value than would be the case if the share price were substantially higher. We believe that the Reverse Stock Split will make our common stock a more attractive and cost effective investment for many investors, which will enhance the liquidity of the holders of our common stock.

 

We believe that the Reverse Stock Split will enhance our ability to obtain a potential initial listing on a national exchange. The NASDAQ Capital Market requires, among other items, an initial bid price of least $4.00 per share and following initial listing, maintenance of a continued price of at least $1.00 per share. The NYSE MKT requires an initial listing bid price of $3.00 (or $2.00 depending on the applicable listing standard). Reducing the number of outstanding shares of our common stock should, absent other factors, increase the per share market price of our common stock, although we cannot provide any assurance that our minimum bid price would remain following the Reverse Stock Split over the minimum bid price requirement of any such stock exchange.

 

Reducing the number of outstanding shares of our common stock through the Reverse Stock Split is intended, absent other factors, to increase the per share market price of our common stock. However, other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Reverse Stock Split, if completed, will result in the intended benefits described above, that the market price of our common stock will increase following the Reverse Stock Split or that the market price of our common stock will not decrease in the future. Additionally, we cannot assure you that the market price per share of our common stock after a Reverse Stock Split will increase in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of our common stock outstanding before the Reverse Stock Split. Accordingly, the total market capitalization of our common stock after the Reverse Stock Split may be lower than the total market capitalization before the Reverse Stock Split.

 

Procedure for Implementing the Reverse Stock Split

 

The Reverse Stock Split would become legally effective upon the filing of a certificate of amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of California. However, the exact timing of the reverse, in accordance with SEC regulations and procedures (the “Effective Time”) that will effect the Reverse Stock Split will be approximately 20 days after the mailing of this information statement. In addition, our board of directors reserves the right, notwithstanding stockholder approval and without further action by the stockholders, to elect not to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split if, at any time prior to filing the amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, our board of directors, in its sole discretion, determines that it is no longer in our best interest and the best interests of our stockholders to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split.

 

 
 

 

Effect of the Reverse Stock Split on Holders of Outstanding Common Stock

 

Upon effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, each 500 shares of existing common stock will be combined into one new share of common stock. The table below shows, as of February 22, 2013, the number of outstanding shares of common stock (excluding Treasury shares) that would result from the Reverse Stock Split (without giving effect to the treatment of fractional shares):

 

Reverse Stock Split Ratio

 

 

Approximate Number of
Outstanding Shares of
Common Stock
Following the Reverse Stock
Split

 

 

     
1-for-500

4,795,636

 

 

The Reverse Stock Split will affect all holders of our common stock uniformly and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except that as described below in “Fractional Shares,” record holders of common stock otherwise entitled to a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the next whole number. In addition, the Reverse Stock Split will not affect any stockholder’s proportionate voting power (subject to the treatment of fractional shares).

 

After the Effective Time, our common stock will have new Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures (CUSIP) numbers, which is a number used to identify our equity securities. After the Reverse Stock Split, we will continue to be subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our common stock will continue to be listed on the OTCQB under the symbol “MMTC” subject to any future decision of our Board of Directors to list our securities on a stock exchange.

 

Registered “Book-Entry” Holders of Common Stock (i.e. stockholders that are registered on the transfer agent’s books and records but do not hold stock certificates)

 

Certain of our registered holders of common stock may hold some or all of their shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent. These stockholders do not have stock certificates evidencing their ownership of the common stock. They are, however, provided with a statement reflecting the number of shares registered in their accounts.

 

Stockholders who hold shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent will not need to take action (the exchange will be automatic) to receive whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split common stock, subject to adjustment for treatment of fractional shares.

 

STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.

 

Fractional Shares

 

We do not currently intend to issue fractional shares in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Therefore, we will not issue certificates representing fractional shares. In lieu of issuing fractions of shares, we will round up to the next whole number.

 

Effect of the Reverse Stock Split on Employee Plans, Options, Restricted Stock Awards and Units, Warrants, and Convertible or Exchangeable Securities

 

Proportionate adjustments are generally required to be made to the per share exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities entitling the holders to purchase, exchange for, or convert into, shares of common stock. This would result in approximately the same aggregate price being required to be paid under such options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities upon exercise, and approximately the same value of shares of common stock being delivered upon such exercise, exchange or conversion, immediately following the Reverse Stock Split as was the case immediately preceding the Reverse Stock Split. The number of shares deliverable upon settlement or vesting of restricted stock awards will be similarly adjusted, subject to our treatment of fractional shares. The number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to these securities will be proportionately based upon the reverse stock split ratio of one-for five hundred (1:500), subject to our treatment of fractional shares.

 

 
 

 

Accounting Matters

 

The amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation will not affect the par value of our common stock per share, which will remain $0.01 par value per share. As a result, as of the Effective Time, the stated capital attributable to common stock and the additional paid-in capital account on our balance sheet will not change due to the Reverse Stock Split. Reported per share net income or loss will be higher because there will be fewer shares of common stock outstanding.

 

No Appraisal Rights

 

Under California law and our charter documents, holders of our common stock will not be entitled to dissenter’s rights or appraisal rights with respect to the Reverse Stock Split.
