IRVINE, Calif., Dec. 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/-- EP Global Communications, Inc. (otc-pink:EPGL) and Pricewaterhouse Coopers Caymans Ltd. (PwC) have entered an Agreement to mutually reduce their outstanding common share count by retiring a significant number of shares managed by PwC and matching shares held by Michael Hayes, Company President. The plan will be executed on January 30, 2015. This action involves no stock split of any kind.
Shareholders of record prior to January 30, 2015, will realize a percentage increase in their equity of EPGL as a result of the retirement of the shares managed by PwC and held by Mr. Hayes. The total number of shares to be retired will be determined in January via negotiation by the parties and the Company will reduce the authorized shares accordingly.
"This is something I have wanted to accomplish for our shareholders for some time now," says Mr. Hayes. "The shareholders made a sacrifice in 2012 to help us restructure the Company and that has been very successful for those shareholders, myself and PwC. Now we will return the favor by beginning to make EPGL shares more scarce. This action along with the development of our technologies by major corporations, will strengthen the emergence of EPGL as a leader in advanced MEMS technology research and development. We are very excited about the future for the valuable new art and intellectual properties that we have invented to date."
