Item 8.01 — Other
Events.
On August 17,
2011, MedCath Corporation (the “Company”) filed a Definitive Proxy
Statement (the “Proxy Statement”) relating to a Special Meeting of
Stockholders to be held on September 22, 2011 (the “Special
Meeting”). In connection with the Special Meeting, the Company’s
Board of Directors (the “Board”) recommended a vote approving the
Asset Sale – Complete Liquidation Proposal, which includes (a) the
sale of all or substantially all of the remaining assets of the Company prior
to filing a certificate of dissolution and (b) the Company’s
complete liquidation (as the term “complete liquidation” is
described in Section 346(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended).
On August 26,
2011, subsequent to the filing the Proxy Statement, the Company entered into a
definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) to sell substantially all
the assets of Hualapai Mountain Medical Center in Kingman, Ariz., to Kingman
Regional Medical Center (the “Hualapai Sale”). The Hualapai Sale is
conditioned upon stockholder approval of the Asset Sale – Complete
Liquidation Proposal at the Special Meeting. The
Company filed a Supplement to the Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A (the
“Proxy Supplement”) on September 2, 2011 to provide details
related to the Hualapai Sale.
The Board continues to
recommend a vote “FOR” approval of the Asset Sale – Complete
Liquidation Proposal, which includes (a) the sale of all or substantially
all of the remaining assets of the Company prior to filing a certificate of
dissolution and (b) the Company’s complete liquidation (as the term
“complete liquidation” is described in Section 346(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended).
If a stockholder has
already submitted its proxy and does not wish to change its vote on the Asset
Sale – Complete Liquidation Proposal, as supplemented by the Proxy
Supplement, no further action by that stockholder is necessary. Stockholders do
not need to submit a new proxy unless they wish to change their vote on
Proposal 1. If stockholders have already submitted their proxy and they wish to
change their vote on any matter, they may revoke their proxy before it is voted
at the Special Meeting by (a) submitting written notice of revocation or
another proxy with new voting instructions to the Company’s Corporate
Secretary at its registered office at any time up to and including the last
business day preceding the day of the Special Meeting, (b) submitting
written notice of revocation or another proxy with new voting instructions to
the chairperson of the Special Meeting on the day of the Special Meeting,
(c) voting in person at the Special Meeting or (d) in any other
manner permitted by law.
All stockholders who
have not yet voted or who wish to change their vote on Proposal 1 are urged to
vote their shares in the manner described in the Proxy Statement as soon as
possible.
