sale of our subsidiary, WV Fiber, Inc., to Ultra Global Investments, LLC under
the terms and conditions of a Stock Purchase Agreement between Integrated Media

2007.
NOTICE
IS
HEREBY GIVEN to inform the holders of record of shares of common stock and
preferred stock of Integrated Media Holdings, Inc. (the “Company,” “us,” “we,”
or “our”), that as of the close of business on April 11, 2007 (the “Record
Date”) our board of directors recommended and a majority of our stockholders
voted in favor of resolutions which accomplished the sale of WV Fiber, Inc.
to
Ultra Global Investments LLC. Our board of directors approved the sale on April
11, 2007. WV Fiber Inc. represents a significant portion of the Company’s
present operations and assets, so the board of directors decided to seek
stockholder approval as well. Two of our stockholders, who collectively hold
a
majority of the voting power of our common and preferred stock, have already
approved the transaction by written consent.
Two
consenting stockholders, SovCap Equity Partners, Ltd. and Wilhagan Ventures
(the
“Consenting Stockholders”), holds a total of 592,294 shares of our common stock
and 3,008,989 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, which votes together
with
the common stock on an as-if converted basis. For purposes of voting, each
share
of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 9.6 shares of our common stock.
Accordingly, the Consenting Stockholder has the right to vote an aggregate
of
28,886,294 shares of our common stock. This equals approximately 56% of the
total voting power entitled to vote on the foregoing resolutions as of the
Record Date. The Consenting Stockholder voted in favor of the corporate actions
and possessed the power to pass the corporate actions without the concurrence
of
any of our other stockholders.
The

REGULATION 14C AND SCHEDULE 14C THEREUNDER
April

2007
This
Information Statement and Notice of Action Taken Without a Meeting
(collectively, the "Information Statement") is furnished to the stockholders
of
Integrated Media Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, to provide information
with respect to an action taken by written consent of the holders of a majority
of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock that were entitled
to
vote on such action. This Information Statement also constitutes notice of
action taken without a meeting as required by Section 228(d) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law. The actions to be taken pursuant to the written consent
shall be made effective 20 days after the mailing of this Information
Statement.
The
written consent approved the sale of the Company's subsidiary, WV Fiber, Inc.,
to Ultra Global Investments LLC under the terms of a Stock Purchase Agreement,
or the definitive agreement, dated March 31, 2007. This transaction involves
the
sale of a significant portion of our assets, business and operations and,
conceivably, could constitute a sale of substantially all of the property and
assets of Integrated Media Holdings, Inc. within the meaning of Section 271(a)
of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Because a transaction subject to
Section 271(a) requires approval of a majority of the corporation's outstanding
voting shares under Delaware law, the board of directors sought the approval
by
our stockholders for the sale of WV Fiber. Two of our stockholders, SovCap
Equity Partners and Wilhagan Ventures, represent a majority of the outstanding
shares of our common stock and have signed the written consent. Therefore,
all
required corporate approvals of the transaction have been obtained. This
Information Statement is furnished solely for the purpose of informing
stockholders of this corporate action in the manner required by the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).
The
board
of directors of the Company approved the sale of WV Fiber, Inc. unanimous
written consent dated as of April 11, 2007 as it believes that such actions
are
in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The majority
stockholders of the Company, which comprises 56% of the total issued and
outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock entitled to vote on these
matters also approved the sale on April 11, 2007. This Information Statement
is
furnished only to inform stockholders of the Company of the above actions taken
by the majority stockholder of the Company before such action takes effect
in
accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to
time (the “Exchange Act”).
The
elimination of the need for a special or annual meeting of stockholders to
ratify or approve the action taken is authorized by Section 228(a) of the DGCL,
which provides that the written consent of stockholders holding at least a
majority of the voting power may be substituted for such a special or annual
meeting. In order to eliminate the costs and management time involved in holding
a special or annual meeting and in order to effect or ratify the Reverse Stock
Split and Amendment as early as possible in order to accomplish the purposes
of
the Company as hereafter described, the board of directors of the Company voted
to utilize the written consent of stockholders holding a majority of the voting
power of the Company.

|
We
signed
a definitive Stock Purchase Agreement on April 11, 2007 and the sale of WV
Stock
will be accounted for as of March 31, 2007. The Buyer met closing obligations
as
described above with the exception of surrendering of 4 million shares of our
stock. The Buyer must satisfy this obligation no later than on or around May
21,
2007. We will also hold an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $150,000,
to be paid in full within 60 days of the initial closing, and the HT Investments
note assumed by the buyer will remain outstanding until the note is satisfied
under its terms and conditions. We remain indirectly obligated on the HT
Investments note by way of a guarantee agreement issued to HT Investments on
February 7, 2007 and remains outstanding until the note is paid in full.
BACKGROUND
AND REASON FOR THE SALE
After
our
reorganization and corporate restructure during the 4th
quarter
of 2005 and 1st
quarter
of 2006, we have focused our business on becoming a leading provider of digital
content distribution and logistics solutions that support the delivery of
entertainment, information and social network services over the internet and
broadband networks. Our business objective is to become a leading provider
of
online and broadband distribution services and platforms for a wide range of
content owners and producers. Our sole subsidiary until August 2006, Endavo
Media and Communications, has been focused on the development and marketing
content delivery platforms and Internet-based
entertainment and information services for its customers, who are content owners
seeking to monetize, enable social networking and distribute content to broader
audiences through the Internet, IPTV, broadband TV, and portable handheld
consumer electronics. After our restructure was completed in April 2006, we
began looking for potential acquisitions that would support our vision and
business plan rollout.
On
August
8, 2006 we closed the purchase of the assets of WV Fiber LLC through the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Tennessee Nashville Division.
All assets and operations of WV Fiber LLC were purchased by Louros Networks,
a
newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of Integrated Media, in exchange for
$1,662,500 in cash and 4,055,448 shares of our common stock. As an additional
part of the purchase price, we satisfied certain pre-petition secured claims,
including principal and non-default interest, by agreeing to issue 917,486
Series A preferred shares, which were contributed to the company from our major
shareholder as the time of issuance, and by the issuance of a Secured Promissory
Note in the amount of $850,000. This note became due on November 8, 2006, with
a
20-day grace period. We were able to extend the payment terms on the note,
by
agreement with HT Investments, to begin making monthly payments March 15, 2007
totaling $1,035,000.
From
November 2006 through March 2007, we have attempted but were unable to obtain
private placement equity or debt financing sufficient to satisfy the HT
Investments obligation, thus giving them the right to foreclose on WV Fiber
and
put the company up for private sale. It was our belief that we would unlikely
receive any substantial return from such an action. We had received proposals
for asset-based debt financing and an offer to purchase WV Fiber, but were
unable to close those financing options. Our lack of options to refinance the
WV
Fiber secured debt, along with insufficient working capital for future
operations of all our subsidiaries, became a paramount concern for the board
of
directors over the past few months. Since the asset purchase, WV Fiber has
generated approximately $2.2 million in revenues and contributed approximately
$570,000 to our operating losses. During this period our stock price has fallen
by approximately 80%. As a result of these factors, our ability to repay our
current and due obligations and sustain all our subsidiaries declined
substantially.
On
March
14, 2007, we resolved the principal terms for sale of WV Fiber Inc. to a new
company to be formed by Peter Marcum and Harish Shah. Taking into account our
liquidity and other business factors, the board of directors authorized us
to
sign a letter of intent to sell WV Fiber as proposed. It is our belief that
the
sale of WV Fiber will relieve a substantial amount of pressure from liabilities
of the company and allows us to focus our energies and resources on the
development of our primary vision and business plan of building and marketing
digital content/media distribution platforms and content/service management
services.

2007.
As
of
April 11, 2007, the record date for this transaction, the holders of 28,896,294
shares, or approximately 56% of the total number of shares of common and
outstanding and beneficially owned by way of issued Series A preferred shares,
approved the sale of the WV Fiber Inc. and the definitive agreement. As the
transaction and the definitive agreement have been approved by holders of a
majority of the shares of our common stock, no proxies are being solicited

the

14C
thereunder. The sale of WV Fiber Inc. will not become effective until at least
20 days after the filing of this Information Statement. This Information
Statement is being mailed to the stockholders on or about April 12,

Vote
Required
The
Asset
Sale requires approval by holders of at least a majority of the outstanding
shares of the Company’s common stock who are present, or represented, and
entitled to vote thereon, at a special or annual meeting of stockholders.
Section 228(a) of the DGCL provides that the written consent of stockholders
holding at least a majority of the voting power may be substituted for such
a
special or annual meeting.
Our
board
of directors fixed the close of business on April 5, 2007 as the record date
for
determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the above noted action.
Two
consenting stockholders, SovCap Equity Partners, Ltd. and Wilhagan Ventures
(the
“Consenting Stockholders”), holds a total of 592,294 shares of our common stock
and 3,008,989 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, which votes together
with
the common stock on an as-if converted basis. For purposes of voting, each
share
of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 9.6 shares of our common stock.
Accordingly, the Consenting Stockholder has the right to vote an aggregate
of
28,886,294 shares of our common stock. This equals approximately 56% of the
total voting power entitled to vote on the foregoing resolutions as of the
Record Date. The Consenting Stockholder voted in favor of the corporate actions
and possessed the power to pass the corporate actions without the concurrence
of
any of our other stockholders.
Costs
of Distributing this Information Statement
We
will
pay all costs associated with the distribution of this information statement,
including the costs of printing and mailing. In addition, we will only deliver
one information statement to multiple stockholders sharing an address, unless
we
have received contrary instructions from one or more of the stockholders. Also,
we will promptly deliver a separate copy of this information statement and
future stockholder communication documents to any stockholder at a shared
address to which a single copy of this information statement was delivered,
or
deliver a single copy of this information statement and future stockholder
communication documents to any stockholder or stockholders sharing an address
to
which multiple copies are now delivered, upon written request to us at our
address noted above.
Stockholders
may also address future requests regarding delivery of information statements
and/or annual reports by contacting us at the address noted above.
Interest
in the Company's Directors and Management in the Asset Sale
Two
of
our officers or directors, Peter Marcum and Harish Shah, have a personal
ownership in Ultra Global Investments, LLC, the Buyer. Therefore, Mr. Marcum
and
Mr. Shah each has interest in the Asset Sale, other than as shareholders of
Integrated Media Holdings.
Regulatory
Matters
No
United
States federal or state regulatory requirements must be complied with or
approvals obtained as a condition of the proposed Asset Sale other than the
federal securities laws.
Federal
Income Tax Consequences of the Asset Sale
The
Asset
Sale will be a taxable transaction for the Company but not for our shareholders.
Any resulting gain will be offset by the Company's current and prior losses.
We
currently have a net loss carry forward of approximately $23 million, which
we
believe can be used to offset income or gains incurred from this
transaction.
Effective
Date
The
sale
of WV Fiber will be declared effective on or around April 26, 2007.
Rights
Of Dissenting Shareholders
Any
IMHI
stockholder is entitled to be paid the fair value of its shares in accordance
with Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
(“Delaware Law”) if the stockholder dissents to the Sale or any of the actions
resulting from or in connection with the Sale, including the exchange ratio
of
IMHI common stock or preferred stock for WV Fiber common stock. A brief summary
of the provisions of Delaware Law Sections 262 is set forth below and the
complete text of said Section is attached as Exhibit “A”.
Because
the Sale has been approved by the required vote of IMHI’s stockholders effective
twenty days from the mailing of this Information Statement, each holder of
shares of IMHI Common Stock who asserts dissenters’ rights and who follows the
procedures set forth in Section 262 of Delaware Law, will be entitled to have
his or her shares of IMHI Common Stock purchased by IMHI for cash at their
fair
market value. The fair market value of shares of IMHI Common Stock will be
determined as of the day before the first announcement of the terms of the
Sale,
excluding any appreciation or depreciation in consequence of the
Sale.
A
holder
who wishes to exercise dissenters’ rights should deliver his or her written
demand to IMHI’s transfer agent, Atlas Stock Transfer Corp., 4455 South 700 East
Suite 200, Salt Lake City, Utah 84107 with a copy (which shall not constitute
notice) to Robert L. Sonfield, Jr., Esq., Sonfield & Sonfield, 770 South
Post Oak Lane, Houston, Texas 77056, on or before 20 days after the date of
mailing of this Information Statement. The demand will be sufficient if it
reasonably informs IMHI of the identity of the stockholder and that the
stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such holder’s shares. Any
stockholder who does not follow the foregoing is not entitled to payment for
his
shares under Delaware Law.
In
accordance with the regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act, the
authorization of the ASale will not become effective until twenty days after
IMHI has mailed this Information Statement to the stockholders of
IMHI.
Within
120 days after the effective date of the Sale, IMHI or any stockholder who
has
complied with Section 262 and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal rights
may
file a petition in the Delaware Court of Chancery demanding a determination
of
the value of the stock of all such stockholders. At any time within 60 days
after the effective date of the Sale, any stockholder shall have the right
to
withdraw such stockholder’s demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered
upon the Sale. After determining the stockholders entitled to an appraisal,
the
Court shall appraise the shares, determining their fair value exclusive of
any
element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the Sale,
together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount
determined to be the fair value. The Court shall direct the payment of the
fair
value of the shares, together with interest, if any, by the surviving or
resulting corporation to the stockholders entitled thereto. Interest may be
simple or compound, as the Court may direct. The costs of the proceeding may
be
determined by the Court and taxed upon the parties as the Court deems equitable
in the circumstances.
The
foregoing summary does not purport to provide comprehensive statements of the
procedures to be followed by a dissenting stockholder who seeks payment of
the
fair value of his shares of IMHI Common Stock. Delaware Law establishes the
procedures to be followed and failure to do so may result in the loss of all
dissenters’ rights. Accordingly, each stockholder who might desire to exercise
dissenters’ rights should carefully consider and comply with the provisions of
these sections and consult his legal advisor.
IMHI
HAS
RESERVED THE RIGHT TO ABANDON THE SALE IF IT DECIDES THAT THE NUMBER OF
STOCKHOLDERS EXERCISING DISSENTERS’ RIGHTS EXCEEDS AN AMOUNT IT DEEMS ACCEPTABLE
IN ITS SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION.
The
discussion contained herein is qualified in its entirety by and should be read
in conjunction with the form of the Agreement.
COMMUNICATIONS
WITH RESPECT TO DISSENTERS’ RIGHTS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED TO IMHI’S TRANSFER AGENT,
ATLAS STOCK TRANSFER CORP., 4455 SOUTH STREET, SUITE 200, SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH
84107.
Upon
filing a notice of election to dissent a dissenting shareholder will cease
to
have any of the rights of a shareholder except the right to be paid the fair
value of his IMHI Stock pursuant to the Delaware Law. If a shareholder loses
his
dissenters’ rights, either by withdrawal of his demand, abandonment of the Sale
by IMHI or otherwise, he will not have the right to receive a cash payment
for
his IMHI Stock and will be reinstated to all of his rights as a shareholder
as
they existed at the time of the filing of his demand.
THE
PROVISIONS OF DELAWARE LAW SECTION 262 ARE TECHNICAL AND COMPLEX. IT IS
SUGGESTED THAT ANY SHAREHOLDER WHO DESIRES TO EXERCISE RIGHTS TO DISSENT CONSULT
LEGAL COUNSEL, AS FAILURE TO COMPLY STRICTLY WITH SUCH PROVISIONS MAY LEAD
TO A
LOSS OF DISSENTERS’ RIGHTS.
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
The
Company has received no indication from any of its directors or non-employee
directors of any intent to oppose any action to be taken by the Company. There
have been no proposals for action submitted to the Company by any stockholders
other than the proposal, which is the subject of this Information Statement.

EXHIBIT
A
SECTION
262 GENERAL CORPORATION LAW OF DELAWARE APPRASIAL RIGHTS
(a)
Any
stockholder of a corporation of this State who holds shares of stock on the
date
of the making of a demand pursuant to subsection (d) of this section with
respect to such shares, who continuously holds such shares through the effective
date of the Sale or consolidation, who has otherwise complied with subsection
(d) of this section and who has neither voted in favor of the Sale or
consolidation nor consented thereto in writing pursuant to ss.228 of this title
shall be entitled to an appraisal by the Court of Chancery of the fair value
of
the stockholder’s shares of stock under the circumstances described in
subsections (b) and (c) of this section. As used in this section, the word
“stockholder” means a holder of record of stock in a stock corporation and also
a member of record of a nonstock corporation; the words “stock” and “share” mean
and include what is ordinarily meant by those words and also membership or
membership interest of a member of a nonstock corporation; and the words
“depository receipt” mean a receipt or other instrument issued by a depository
representing an interest in one or more shares, or fractions thereof, solely
of
stock of a corporation, which stock is deposited with the
depository.
(b)
Appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of any class or series of
stock of a constituent corporation in a Sale or consolidation to be effected
pursuant to ss.251 (other than a Sale effected pursuant to ss.251(g) of this
title), ss.252, ss.254, ss.257, ss.258, ss.263 or ss.264 of this
title:
(1)
Provided, however, that no appraisal rights under this section shall be
available for the shares of any class or series of stock, which stock, or
depository receipts in respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine
the stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting of
stockholders to act upon the agreement of Sale or consolidation, were either
(i)
listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market
system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc. or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 holders;
and further provided that no appraisal rights shall be available for any shares
of stock of the constituent corporation surviving a Sale if the Sale did not
require for its approval the vote of the stockholders of the surviving
corporation as provided in subsection (f) of ss.251 of this title.
(2)
Notwithstanding paragraph (1) of this subsection, appraisal rights under this
section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a
constituent corporation if the holders thereof are required by the terms of
an
agreement of Sale or consolidation pursuant to ss.ss.251, 252, 254, 257, 258,
263 and 264 of this title to accept for such stock anything except:
a.
Shares
of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from such Sale or
consolidation, or depository receipts in respect thereof;
b.
Shares
of stock of any other corporation, or depository receipts in respect thereof,
which shares of stock (or depository receipts in respect thereof) or depository
receipts at the effective date of the Sale or consolidation will be either
listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market
system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc. or held of record by more than 2,000
holders;
c.
Cash
in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in
the
foregoing subparagraphs a. and b. of this paragraph; or
d.
Any
combination of the shares of stock, depository receipts and cash in lieu of
fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in the foregoing
subparagraphs a., b. and c. of this paragraph.
(3)
In
the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Delaware corporation party to a
Sale
effected under ss.253 of this title is not owned by the parent corporation
immediately prior to the Sale, appraisal rights shall be available for the
shares of the subsidiary Delaware corporation.
(c)
Any
corporation may provide in its certificate of incorporation that appraisal
rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or
series of its stock as a result of an amendment to its certificate of
incorporation, any Sale or consolidation in which the corporation is a
constituent corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets
of
the corporation. If the certificate of incorporation contains such a provision,
the procedures of this section, including those set forth in subsections (d)
and
(e) of this section, shall apply as nearly as is practicable.
(d)
Appraisal rights shall be perfected as follows:
(1)
If a
proposed Sale or consolidation for which appraisal rights are provided under
this section is to be submitted for approval at a meeting of stockholders,
the
corporation, not less than 20 days prior to the meeting, shall notify each
of
its stockholders who was such on the record date for such meeting with respect
to shares for which appraisal rights are available pursuant to subsection (b)
or
(c) hereof that appraisal rights are available for any or all of the shares
of
the constituent corporations, and shall include in such notice a copy of this
section. Each stockholder electing to demand the appraisal of such stockholder’s
shares shall deliver to the corporation, before the taking of the vote on the
Sale or consolidation, a written demand for appraisal of such stockholder’s
shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation
of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby
to
demand the appraisal of such stockholder’s shares. A proxy or vote against the
Sale or consolidation shall not constitute such a demand. A stockholder electing
to take such action must do so by a separate written demand as herein provided.
Within 10 days after the effective date of such Sale or consolidation, the
surviving or resulting corporation shall notify each stockholder of each
constituent corporation who has complied with this subsection and has not voted
in favor of or consented to the Sale or consolidation of the date that the
Sale
or consolidation has become effective; or
(2)
If
the Sale or consolidation was approved pursuant to ss.228 or ss.253 of this
title, then either a constituent corporation before the effective date of the
Sale or consolidation or the surviving or resulting corporation within 10 days
thereafter shall notify each of the holders of any class or series of stock
of
such constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal rights of the
approval of the Sale or consolidation and that appraisal rights are available
for any or all shares of such class or series of stock of such constituent
corporation, and shall include in such notice a copy of this section. Such
notice may, and, if given on or after the effective date of the Sale or
consolidation, shall, also notify such stockholders of the effective date of
the
Sale or consolidation. Any stockholder entitled to appraisal rights may, within
20 days after the date of mailing of such notice, demand in writing from the
surviving or resulting corporation the appraisal of such holder’s shares. Such
demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the
identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand
the appraisal of such holder’s shares. If such notice did not notify
stockholders of the effective date of the Sale or consolidation, either (i)
each
such constituent corporation shall send a second notice before the effective
date of the Sale or consolidation notifying each of the holders of any class
or
series of stock of such constituent corporation that are entitled to appraisal
rights of the effective date of the Sale or consolidation or (ii) the surviving
or resulting corporation shall send such a second notice to all such holders
on
or within 10 days after such effective date; provided, however, that if such
second notice is sent more than 20 days following the sending of the first
notice, such second notice need only be sent to each stockholder who is entitled
to appraisal rights and who has demanded appraisal of such holder’s shares in
accordance with this subsection. An affidavit of the secretary or assistant
secretary or of the transfer agent of the corporation that is required to give
either notice that such notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud,
be
prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For purposes of determining
the stockholders entitled to receive either notice, each constituent corporation
may fix, in advance, a record date that shall be not more than 10 days prior
to
the date the notice is given, provided, that if the notice is given on or after
the effective date of the Sale or consolidation, the record date shall be such
effective date. If no record date is fixed and the notice is given prior to
the
effective date, the record date shall be the close of business on the day next
preceding the day on which the notice is given.
(e)
Within 120 days after the effective date of the Sale or consolidation, the
surviving or resulting corporation or any stockholder who has complied with
subsections (a) and (d) hereof and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal
rights, may file a petition in the Court of Chancery demanding a determination
of the value of the stock of all such stockholders. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, at any time within 60 days after the effective date of the Sale
or
consolidation, any stockholder shall have the right to withdraw such
stockholder’s demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the Sale
or consolidation. Within 120 days after the effective date of the Sale or
consolidation, any stockholder who has complied with the requirements of
subsections (a) and (d) hereof, upon written request, shall be entitled to
receive from the corporation surviving the Sale or resulting from the
consolidation a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not
voted
in favor of the Sale or consolidation and with respect to which demands for
appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares.
Such written statement shall be mailed to the stockholder within 10 days after
such stockholder’s written request for such a statement is received by the
surviving or resulting corporation or within 10 days after expiration of the
period for delivery of demands for appraisal under subsection (d) hereof,
whichever is later.
(f)
Upon
the filing of any such petition by a stockholder, service of a copy thereof
shall be made upon the surviving or resulting corporation, which shall within
20
days after such service file in the office of the Register in Chancery in which
the petition was filed a duly verified list containing the names and addresses
of all stockholders who have demanded payment for their shares and with whom
agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached by the
surviving or resulting corporation. If the petition shall be filed by the
surviving or resulting corporation, the petition shall be accompanied by such
a
duly verified list. The Register in Chancery, if so ordered by the Court, shall
give notice of the time and place fixed for the hearing of such petition by
registered or certified mail to the surviving or resulting corporation and
to
the stockholders shown on the list at the addresses therein stated. Such notice
shall also be given by 1 or more publications at least 1 week before the day
of
the hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation published in the City of
Wilmington, Delaware or such publication as the Court deems advisable. The
forms
of the notices by mail and by publication shall be approved by the Court, and
the costs thereof shall be borne by the surviving or resulting
corporation.
(g)
At
the hearing on such petition, the Court shall determine the stockholders who
have complied with this section and who have become entitled to appraisal
rights. The Court may require the stockholders who have demanded an appraisal
for their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to submit their
certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the
pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any stockholder fails to comply
with such direction, the Court may dismiss the proceedings as to such
stockholder.
(h)
After
determining the stockholders entitled to an appraisal, the Court shall appraise
the shares, determining their fair value exclusive of any element of value
arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the Sale or consolidation,
together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount
determined to be the fair value. In determining such fair value, the Court
shall
take into account all relevant factors. In determining the fair rate of
interest, the Court may consider all relevant factors, including the rate of
interest which the surviving or resulting corporation would have had to pay
to
borrow money during the pendency of the proceeding. Upon application by the
surviving or resulting corporation or by any stockholder entitled to participate
in the appraisal proceeding, the Court may, in its discretion, permit discovery
or other pretrial proceedings and may proceed to trial upon the appraisal prior
to the final determination of the stockholder entitled to an appraisal. Any
stockholder whose name appears on the list filed by the surviving or resulting
corporation pursuant to subsection (f) of this section and who has submitted
such stockholder’s certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery, if such is
required, may participate fully in all proceedings until it is finally
determined that such stockholder is not entitled to appraisal rights under
this
section.
(i)
The
Court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the shares, together with
interest, if any, by the surviving or resulting corporation to the stockholders
entitled thereto. Interest may be simple or compound, as the Court may direct.
Payment shall be so made to each such stockholder, in the case of holders of
uncertificated stock forthwith, and the case of holders of shares represented
by
certificates upon the surrender to the corporation of the certificates
representing such stock. The Court’s decree may be enforced as other decrees in
the Court of Chancery may be enforced, whether such surviving or resulting
corporation be a corporation of this State or of any state.
(j)
The
costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Court and taxed upon the
parties as the Court deems equitable in the circumstances. Upon application
of a
stockholder, the Court may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred
by
any stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including, without
limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to
be charged pro rata against the value of all the shares entitled to an
appraisal.
(k)
From
and after the effective date of the Sale or consolidation, no stockholder who
has demanded appraisal rights as provided in subsection (d) of this section
shall be entitled to vote such stock for any purpose or to receive payment
of
dividends or other distributions on the stock (except dividends or other
distributions payable to stockholders of record at a date which is prior to
the
effective date of the Sale or consolidation); provided, however, that if no
petition for an appraisal shall be filed within the time provided in subsection
(e) of this section, or if such stockholder shall deliver to the surviving
or
resulting corporation a written withdrawal of such stockholder’s demand for an
appraisal and an acceptance of the Sale or consolidation, either within 60
days
after the effective date of the Sale or consolidation as provided in subsection
(e) of this section or thereafter with the written approval of the corporation,
then the right of such stockholder to an appraisal shall cease. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no appraisal proceeding in the Court of Chancery shall be
dismissed as to any stockholder without the approval of the Court, and such
approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Court deems
just.
(l)
The
shares of the surviving or resulting corporation to which the shares of such
objecting stockholders would have been converted had they assented to the Sale
or consolidation shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares of
the
surviving or resulting corporation. (8 Del. C. 1953, ss.262; 56 Del. Laws,
