FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

DragonWave Provides Update on Share Consolidation

 

Ottawa, Canada, February 2, 2016 - DragonWave Inc. (TSX: DWI; NASDAQ: DRWI), a leading global supplier of packet microwave radio systems for mobile and access networks, confirmed today the consolidation (the “Consolidation”) of its common shares (“Common Shares”) on the basis of twenty-five (25) pre-Consolidation shares for one (1) post-Consolidation share.

 

The Common Shares will commence trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) and the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) on a consolidated basis at the opening of markets on February 4, 2016 under its current NASDAQ and TSX trading symbols, “DRWI” and “DWI”, respectively, under the new post-Consolidation CUSIP and ISIN numbers of 26144M400 and ISINCA26144M4002, respectively.

 

The Consolidation will reduce the number of outstanding Common Shares from 75,493,513 to 3,019,717. Proportionate adjustments will be made to the Company’s outstanding warrants, stock options and restricted share units. No fractional common shares will be issued pursuant to the Consolidation and any fractional shares that would have otherwise been issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

 

Registered holders of Common Shares have received letters of transmittal with respect to the Consolidation, which were mailed with the Management Proxy Circular on or about December 21, 2015. The Consolidation is now effective and registered shareholders should surrender their existing share certificates (representing pre-Consolidation Common Shares) for replacement share certificates (representing post-Consolidation Common Shares). Until surrendered, each existing share certificate will be deemed, for all purposes, to represent the number of Common Shares to which the holder thereof is entitled as a result of the Consolidation.

 

Registered shareholders can obtain copies of the letter of transmittal by contacting DragonWave’s transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. or under DragonWave’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

 

Shareholders who hold their shares through their broker or other intermediary and do not have actual share certificates/DRS Advices registered in their name will not be required to complete and return a letter of transmittal. Any pre-Consolidation shares owned by such shareholders will automatically be adjusted as a result of the

 



 

Consolidation to reflect the applicable number of post-Consolidation shares owned by them and no further action is required to be taken by such shareholders.

At a special meeting held on January 26, 2016, the Company’s shareholders approved a special resolution authorizing an amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation to consolidate its issued and outstanding common shares. The special resolution approving the Share Consolidation authorized the Company’s board of directors to fix a Share Consolidation ratio within a range between fifteen (15) old common shares for one (1) new common share and twenty-five (25) old common shares for one (1) new common share. On January 26, 2016, the Company’s board of directors determined to proceed with the Share Consolidation based on a ratio of twenty five (25) old common shares for one (1) new common share.

 



 

The Share Consolidation took effect as of February 2, 2016. Prior to the Share Consolidation taking effect, there were approximately 75.49 million common shares outstanding. As a result of the Share Consolidation, there are now approximately 3.02 million common shares outstanding.

 

Any fractional common shares created as a result of the Share Consolidation were rounded down to the nearest whole number. The number of common shares issuable and the exercise price of all outstanding incentive stock options were adjusted downward and upward, respectively, based on the Share Consolidation ratio. The number of common share issuable and exercise price of all of the outstanding warrants were adjusted downward and upward, respectively, based on the Share Consolidation ratio. The number of common shares issuable upon the vesting of outstanding restricted share units was similarly adjusted downward.

 

The post-Share Consolidation common shares will commence trading on the NASDAQ and the TSX on a consolidated basis at the opening of markets on February 4, 2016 under its current NASDAQ and TSX trading symbols, “DRWI” and “DWI”, respectively, under the new post-Consolidation CUSIP and ISIN numbers of 26144M400 and ISINCA26144M4002, respectively.
