CoSine Communications, Inc. Announces Effectiveness of Reverse/Forward Stock Split and Delisting of CoSine Common Stock

LOS GATOS, Calif., Dec. 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- CoSine Communications, Inc. ("CoSine") (Other OTC: COSN) announced today that its previously announced reverse/forward stock split will take effect at 5:00 pm and 5:01 pm ET, respectively, on December 28, 2015.  CoSine also announced it has received approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") clearing the 1-for-80,000 reverse stock split of CoSine's common stock previously approved by its stockholders and first announced on December 3, 2015.  Pursuant to the reverse stock split, stockholders owning fewer than 80,000 shares of CoSine's common stock will have such shares cancelled and converted into the right to receive $4.40 for each share of common stock held immediately prior to the effectiveness of the reverse stock split.  According to FINRA's approval, CoSine's common stock will be delisted from the OTC Pink marketplace and its trading symbol COSN will be deleted effective at the open of trading on December 29, 2015 and all trading in CoSine common stock will immediately cease.  

Effective immediately following the reverse stock split, CoSine will effect a forward stock split such that stockholders holding 80,000 or more shares of CoSine's common stock immediately prior to the effective time of the reverse stock split will not receive a cash payment, but will continue to hold the same number of shares of CoSine common stock after completion of the reverse/forward stock splits as they held immediately prior to the reverse stock split.

The primary purpose of the reverse/forward stock splits is to consolidate CoSine's ownership structure and facilitate the reorganization of CoSine as a wholly owned subsidiary of WebFinancial Holding Corporation, itself an indirect subsidiary of Steel Partners Holdings, L.P., which currently controls approximately 80.3% of CoSine's common stock.  Pursuant to the reorganization, (i) qualified holders of shares of CoSine's common stock outstanding after the effectiveness of the reverse/forward stock splits will have each of their shares converted into the right to receive $4.40 payable in shares of WebFinancial Holding Corporation common stock and Series A preferred stock, and (ii) all other holders of shares of CoSine's common stock outstanding after the effectiveness of the reverse/forward stock splits will have each of their shares converted into the right to receive a cash payment of $4.40. There is currently no public market for the shares of WebFinancial Holding Corporation common stock and Series A preferred stock and none is expected to develop. The reverse/forward stock splits will also eliminate the administrative burden of managing stockholder relations and communications and the expense of maintaining many small stockholder accounts and allow minority stockholders the ability to liquidate their shares of CoSine's common stock at a fair price without having to pay brokerage commissions.

CoSine mailed an Information Statement to stockholders describing the transaction on or about December 23, 2015.  The Information Statement describes the steps that stockholders should take in order to receive the cash consideration for those of their shares of common stock that are cancelled in the reverse stock split and converted into a right to receive cash.
