Item 3.03. | Material Modification of Rights of Security Holders. |
On May 4, 2016, Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) completed a reverse split of its common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio of one-for-seven (the “Reverse Split”).
As a result of the Reverse Split, every seven shares of the issued and outstanding Common Stock were automatically converted into one newly issued and outstanding share of Common Stock, without any change in the par value per share. Any fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Split have been rounded up to the nearest whole share. The Reverse Split has reduced the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding from approximately 113.3 million shares to approximately 16.2 million shares, and the number of authorized shares of Common Stock will be reduced from 500,000,000 shares to 71,428,571. The Company's Common Stock will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis at the market opening on May 5, 2016.
To effect the Reverse Split, the Company filed a Certificate of Change with the Secretary of State of Nevada pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes Sections 78.207 and 78.209. Under Nevada law, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation were deemed amended at the effective time of the Reverse Split, 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on May 4, 2016.
