Skillsoft files Delaware Section 205 petition to validate charter amendment; hearing set March 29, 2023
Skillsoft Corp.
- Filed petition in Delaware Chancery Court under Section 205 to validate Certificate of Amendment that increased authorized Class A shares from 200M to 375M.
- Uncertainty stems from Garfield v. Boxed decision, which may require separate class vote that was not disclosed in 2021 proxy.
- Certificate of Amendment was approved by ~97% of voting stockholders including majority of Class A, but separate class vote potentially required.
- Court granted motion to expedite; hearing on March 29, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time.
- If not successful, uncertainty about authorized capitalization could materially impact the company.
