On August 14, 2017, Amedica Corporation sent the following letter to its stockholders:
August 14, 2017
Dear Stockholder:
The important special meeting of the stockholders of Amedica Corporation has been adjourned, and is now scheduled to be held on September 7, 2017.
As more fully described in the proxy statement, your Board of Directors unanimously recommends that stockholders vote FOR the approval of an amendment to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation to effectuate a reverse stock split.
The purpose of the Reverse Stock Split is to increase the per share trading price of our Common Stock, which we believe would allow us to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).
Your vote is important, no matter how many or how few shares you may own. Please vote TODAY by telephone, via the Internet, or by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the envelope provided.
Very truly yours,
B. Sonny Bal
Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer
