More crap!: "AremisSoft/Buyback/Recap Plan -2:To File Proxy Statement
2001-06-15 14:27 (New York)

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--AremisSoft Corp.'s (AREM) board increased the company's
share repurchase program to up to 4 million shares from 1 million, and approved
a recapitalization program that would entail swapping existing common shares
for new Class A stock with identical rights.
As of April 27, the company had about 39.3 million common shares outstanding.
AremisSoft said that to date it has purchased 1 million of its common shares
under the previous buyback plan.
In a press release Friday, AremisSoft said each 1.1 shares of common stock
would be exchanged for one share of the new Class A stock. AremisSoft would pay
cash for any fractional shares resulting from the exchange.
The plan also calls for the creation of a new class of common shares, to be
called Class B shares, which may be issued in a series with rights to be
determined by the board. The company doesn't expect to list these shares on any
public exchange, but would use them for corporate purposes, including
acquisitions.
The recapitalization plan is subject to shareholder approval and the
continued listing of the company's shares.
AremisSoft said it expects to file a proxy statement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission in the near future with a proposed meeting date for a
shareholder vote. It set June 25 as the record date for the proposed meeting.
AremisSoft's shares recently traded at $13.75, up $1.10, or 8.7%, on Nasdaq
volume of about 1.7 million shares. Avearge daily volume is 2.1 million shares.
