Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On November 19, 2009, Koss Corporation (the “Company”) amended its Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company from eight million five hundred thousand (8,500,000) to twenty million (20,000,000) with a $0.005 par value. The amendment was approved at a special meeting of stockholders on November 19, 2009.
The increase in the number of authorized shares was a condition of the two-for-one forward stock split that was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on October 7, 2009. The stock split is required in order to bring the Company into compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements.
The forward stock split will be effected in the form of a stock dividend of one share of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock outstanding on or about November 20, 2009, the record date for the stock split. The Company expects that the stock dividend will be distributed on December 1, 2009.
The foregoing description of the amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the amendment, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
A copy of the press release announcing the amendment is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
A description of the Company’s forward stock split is contained in Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
