UBIQUITY ANNOUNCES NAME CHANGE AND REVERSE STOCK SPLIT TO HELP MEET MINIMUM BID REQUIREMENT FOR UBIQ NASDAQ APPLICATION

 

Reverse Split and Potential Up-listing To NASDAQ Expected to Benefit the Company through Better Awareness, Access to Capital, and Increased Share Liquidity

  

IRVINE, Calif., April 23- 2014 (Marketwired) – Irvine-based Ubiquity Broadcasting Corp. (OTCQB:UBIQ) today announced that effective April 24, 2014 the Company will change its name to Ubiquity, Inc., to better reflect the Company's focus on its core technologies and intellectual property goals. Furthermore, effective April 24, 2014 the Company shall also effectuate at 3.5 to 1 reverse split of its outstanding common stock, which the Company believes will result in a higher per share trading price and enable the Company to attract additional interest in its common stock. The Company has also implemented the reverse stock split in order to comply with NASDAQ's minimum required bid price for its initial listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market.  The Company has recently applied for listing of its common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market and believes that the reverse split will enable the Company to satisfy the minimum bid price requirement.  On the effective date, the Company will trade under the ticker UBIQD, with the symbol "D" being added as a 5th character for 20 business days. After the 20 days, the Company will resume trading under the ticker UBIQ.

 

Chris Carmichael, CEO noted, “We no longer want to be known as just a broadcasting company. Ubiquity is far more than a broadcasting company as our core competence is based upon a substantial investment in technology as well as innovative intellectual property. The broadcasting and studio operations represent a small fraction of what we do. In our anticipation of up listing to the NASDAQ Capital Markets, we want to focus on our brand as Ubiquity, Inc. as we feel this name change better identifies our brand and technology focus for future reference.”

 

The Company believes that with the reverse split it will comply with NASDAQ listing requirements. However, the Company cannot provide assurances that NASDAQ will ultimately approve the Company's application for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market.

 

Nicholas Mitsakos, Ubiquity’s Co-Chairman stated, “We believe that once the reverse split is effective, Ubiquity will comply with all of the NASDAQ listing requirements, and brings better awareness, access to capital, and increased share liquidity.”

 

Stockholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or "street name" will not be required to take any action to effect the exchange of their shares following the reverse split. Holders of share certificates will receive instructions from the Company's transfer agent, Island Stock Transfer regarding the process for exchanging their shares. Island Stock Transfer Agent Olessia Kritskaia can be reached at at 727-289-0010, ext 243 with any questions.
