Other Events.
On April 14, 2014, Astrotech Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that the Company’s 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) will be held on June 26, 2014. Shareholders of record at close of business on May 9, 2014 will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
Because the Annual Meeting will be held more than 30 days after the date of the anniversary of the Company’s 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the deadline for any shareholder proposal or shareholder nomination under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) listed in the Company’s 2013 Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2013, is no longer applicable. Any such shareholder proposal or nomination, including any notice on Schedule 14N, intended to be considered for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the Annual Meeting must be received by the Company on or before April 18, 2014 at the Company’s principal executive office, 401 Congress Ave., Suite 1650, Austin, Texas 78701, and directed to the attention of the Company’s Secretary. The Company currently intends to make the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting available beginning on or about May 23, 2014.
