Published in Stocks and Investing on Tuesday, February 17th 2009 at 15:01 GMT, Last Modified on 2009-02-17 15:02:16 by Market WireHERZLIA, Israel--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Israel Growth Partners Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") (OTCBB:IGPAA)(IGPAB, IGPAU, IGPBU, IGPAW, IGPAZ) today announced that at a special meeting of stockholders held on February 16, 2009, its stockholders voted to distribute its trust fund for the benefit of its Class B common stockholders, without the requirement that the Company dissolve and liquidate. As a result of the stockholder vote, all shares of Class B common stock have been canceled and converted into the right to receive a pro rata share of the trust fund distribution, expected to be $5.40 per share. The Company's Series B Units are being mandatorily separated into their component parts: two Class W warrants to purchase common stock and rights to receive the distribution on two Class B shares. The Company's Class B Common Stock [IGPAB] and Series B Units [IGPBU] will cease to be quoted on the over-the-counter bulletin board and will cease to trade or be tradeable.
The Company also announced that its common stockholders voted, at a continuation of the special meeting held today, February 17, 2009, to remove the blank check company restrictions from the Company's charter, allowing the Company to continue its corporate existence following the distribution of the trust fund.
The Trustee of the Company's trust fund, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, will distribute the trust fund proceeds as quickly as possible in accordance with its usual procedures to the record holders of the Company's Class B Common Stock as of February 17, 2009. The Company believes that virtually all of the Class B shares are held of record in "street name," which means that the cash distributions will be sent through the securities industry clearing system to stock brokerage and other financial firms for final distribution to beneficial owners of the Class B common stock. In general, Class B stockholders should contact their financial advisors for details about the receipt and disposition of their share of the cash distribution.
