PRINCETON, N.J., May 04, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dataram Corporation (NASDAQ:DRAM) (the “Company”), an independent manufacturer of memory products and provider of performance solutions, today announced the Company’s Board of Directors has authorized and declared that the close of business on May 8, 2017 be the record date for determination of the shareholders eligible to receive a distribution, if any, of an interest in the Company’s assets related to its legacy business, consisting of, among other things, manufacture, distribution, design, development and sale of memory modules, software products, and technical services  (the “Legacy Business”), as described in the Company’s combined proxy and registration statement on Form S-4 declared effective on March 7, 2017 (File No. 333-215385) (the “Registration Statement”).

In addition, the Board of Directors intends to create an irrevocable liquidating trust pursuant to which, if any of the net proceeds are to be distributed, Dataram Memory, the Company’s newly-formed and wholly-owned Nevada subsidiary, will, either immediately prior to the divestiture of the assets related to the Legacy Business place such assets or proceeds therefrom into such trust to be held for the benefit of the shareholders of record as of May 8, 2017. Shareholders as of the record date will receive a non-transferable beneficial interest in proportion to such shareholder’s pro rata ownership interest in the Company’s common stock as of the close of business on the record date, after giving effect to the authorized 1-for-4 reverse split of the Company’s common stock to be effective at the market open on May 8, 2017. There can be no assurance that the Company will enter into any transaction, that any net proceeds will become available, or that the trust will be created. This announcement is information only as required by the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.

While the Company has no current plans to divest assets of the Legacy Business, if such assets be divested within eighteen (18) months of the closing date of the U.S. Gold Corp. acquisition, shareholders as of the Record Date may be entitled to a distribution pursuant to the terms as more fully described in the Registration Statement.
