Gamecom/Ferris CEO shareholder e-mail sent out today.
Friends and Shareholders:
I am pleased to forward you this morning’s press release announcing that GameCom’s merger with Ferris Productions, Inc. received strong shareholder approval at our shareholders’ meeting held late Friday afternoon. Ferris’ shareholders had previously approved the merger.
For all practical purposes, the merger with Ferris is complete; however, the merger will not be finally and legally concluded until later this week when the appropriate merger documentation is filed with the Secretaries of State in Delaware and Texas.
Although the corporate name, for at least the time being, will remain “GameCom, Inc.,” we will begin referring to the company as “GameCom/Ferris.” Please recall that one of the proposals which received shareholder approval on Friday was authorizing the board of directors to change the corporate name. Over the course of the next year, we intend to engage the services of marketing and focus group professionals to determine if an entirely new name is more appropriate to the company’s future.
The new slate of officers for GameCom/Ferris is as follows: L. Kelly Jones, chief executive officer; Bob Ferris, president; Lance Loesberg, executive vice-president; Rob White, vice-president of operations; Steve Haag, vice-president of business development; and Al Spivey, vice-president of production.
The new slate of directors, which, as described in the proxy statement, has been increased to five members, is as follows: John F. Aleckner, Jr.; Bob Ferris; L. Kelly Jones; Lance Loesberg; and Andy Wells.
I assure you, although I have lately been preoccupied with the merger and consummation of our business arrangement with Olympic Holdings, that the other officers have not been so distracted and have been hard at work advancing the interests of GameCom/Ferris. I believe you can expect a robust fall in terms of positive corporate advances.
We have a busy agenda of tradeshows and expositions. First on the schedule is the Association of Science and Technology Centers show to be held in Tucson on October 6th and 7th. Bob Ferris has been working hard on expanding our opportunities for deployment of virtual reality in museums and science centers, and we are anxiously looking forward to this visibility. I will be in New York City on October 17th spreading the word about GameCom/Ferris at the Emerging Company Reports booth at the New York Discovery Expo, and will be taping an appearance at the American Stock Exchange that same day. Later, we will be at the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions show in Orlando from November 14th through November 17th. As you know, this is the leading trade show for the amusement park business.
With the merger behind us, our full focus returns to building this newly-combined company and taking advantage of the very real opportunities which are afforded to us.
These are simply my personal comments, and should not be relied upon in your investment decisions. I strongly urge you to conduct your own due diligence with regard to an investment in GameCom/Ferris. I respectfully refer you to GameCom/Ferris' filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
L. Kelly Jones, GameCom CEO
