With all do respect, I and the investment public should only go by what is filed on the SEC website. That is why it exists, so that there is only one enforceable, correct & accountable source for public disclosure. Imagine if everyone started claiming that they have a different interpretation in a private email.
The 8K is a material disclosure document that the company will cease contributions. This information cannot be disclosed in a 14-a and considered disseminated, thats why its done in a separate 8k. The 14-a is a form used to announce a special or annual meeting in which information in an 8k can be put to a vote. This is a change of the bylaws of the SPEC and requires 65% of the vote. If the 14a was to be modified or cancelled, it would clearly be announced in an 8k as such.
