CareCloud, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CCLD, CCLDO, CCLDP), a
leader in healthcare technology solutions for medical practices and
health systems nationwide, today announced that it continues to
solicit proxies from the holders (the “Series A Preferred
Shareholders”) of its 11% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual
Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) to approve an
amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Designations, Preferences
and Rights of its Series A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock
Proposal”). With approximately 11% of the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock having provided their voting instructions by proxy
to date, the Company’s Board of Directors is encouraged to see that
approximately 72% of these shares are in favor of the changes
recommended in the Preferred Stock Proposal.
“This is an important vote for Series A
Preferred Shareholders,” said Stephen Snyder, President of
CareCloud. “To become effective, the proposal needs the affirmative
vote of at least two-thirds of the shares of all outstanding Series
A Preferred Stock – or about 3 million of the outstanding 4.5
million shares. Series A Preferred Shareholders who would like to
submit their voting instructions can do so now through August 21,
2024, by calling 844-874-6164, by visiting www.aalvote.com/ccld, or
by mailing back the completed proxy card received from the Company.
If you vote by phone or over the internet, you will need your
control number from your proxy card. However, those who would
instead prefer to attend the Special Meeting in person can do so by
following the instructions contained in the Definitive Proxy
materials filed with the SEC.”
If the Preferred Stock Proposal is ultimately
approved, holders of Series A Preferred Stock would receive similar
change of control protections to those afforded to holders of the
Company’s Series B 8.75% Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred
Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). Also, the dividend of
Series A Preferred Stock would mirror that of the Series B
Preferred Stock, and the Company would, going forward, have the
right to exchange the shares of Series A Preferred Stock for common
stock at the liquidation preference value of the $25/share, plus
accrued and unpaid dividends.
If the Preferred Stock Proposal is not approved,
the terms remain the same as when the Series A Preferred Stock was
issued as previously disclosed in the prospectus. Accordingly, a
potential acquirer of the Company could acquire the common stock of
the Company, while leaving the Series A Preferred Stock outstanding
as a security of a public reporting company. As an example of
securities remaining outstanding after an acquisition, investors
may find New Fortress Energy’s (Nasdaq: NFE) acquisition of Golar
LNG Partners (Nasdaq: GMLP) to be a helpful, albeit somewhat
different and distinguishable, reference point.
Proxy solicitation is ongoing and the Company
cannot predict future proxy or voting results, which could be more
or less favorable than the trends seen to date. Any shares that are
not voted will be deemed “no” votes, making it more difficult for
the Company to achieve the minimum two-thirds vote in favor of the
Preferred Stock Proposal.
The information contained in this press release
is a summary of certain relevant portions of the Definitive Proxy
Statement and other materials filed with the SEC. It is important
that Series A Preferred Shareholders review the entirety of the
filings, which are available on the SEC’s website and on
https://ir.carecloud.com/series-a-special-proxy.
