(NewsTraders.com)-- Integrated Device Technology Inc. (IDTI) extended its shareholder rights plan, effective December 21, according to a Form 8-K filing.
The company's previous rights plan, which had a ten-year term, expired December 20.
As a result of the new rights plan, commonly referred to as a "poison pill" due to their anti-takeover properties, the company declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right for each share of common stock outstanding on Jan. 4, 1999.
Each right entitles the holder to purchase one one-hundredth of a share of Series A junior participating preferred stock at a price of $45 per one one-hundredth of a preferred share.
Based in Santa Clara, Calif., Integrated Device designs, develops, manufactures and markets high performance semiconductor products and modules.
