Probably because a reverse split could be coming...
This was in that proxy
All officers and members of the Board of Directors have indicated their intention to vote in favor of approval of the Amendment, which would result in the Company receiving sufficient votes in favor of the Amendment. The Board of Directors believes it is important to allow all shareholders of the Company to participate in the amendment process and to express their opinion with respect to the Amendment, and as such, are seeking the approval of all of the Company’s shareholders, rather than taking action by themselves through their voting power under the Class B Common Stock.
As noted above, the Consent Period ends on July 5, 2019. The members of the Company’s Board of Directors will review the voting totals at the close of the Consent Period in making their determination of whether to proceed with the filing of the Amendment and the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split.
