GameCom to Adjourn Shareholder Meeting Until Friday, Sept. 21
ARLINGTON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 13, 2001--GameCom, Inc. (OTCBB:GAMZ - news), www.GameComInc.com, a leader in interactive Internet gaming, today announced that it plans to adjourn its shareholder meeting until Friday, Sept. 21.
The adjournment is a direct result of the recent terrorist attacks in New York.
The purpose of the shareholder meeting, originally scheduled for Sept. 14, was to finalize the merger with Ferris Productions, Inc. However, since GameCom's transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company, is currently closed for business, GameCom will be unable to certify the proxy results.
L. Kelly Jones, GameCom's chief executive officer, commented: ``Continental is located at Two Broadway in downtown New York City. We last orally obtained voting results from Continental early Tuesday morning; however, since then Continental has been evacuated from its offices. It is our understanding that currently all businesses south of 14th Street are closed for emergency vehicular access, and it is doubtful that Continental will re-open prior to Monday. The voting process requires us to obtain certified proxy results from Continental, which we simply will not be able to do tomorrow.
``Naturally, we are disappointed with this delay. Although the merger vote will be delayed by one week, both companies' personnel are already working together on new projects, and there will be no delay in the combined Company's progress. We have all been reminded that there are more important things in life than delaying the merger of GameCom and Ferris for one week. Our foremost thoughts are with the people in New York,'' Jones concluded.
