2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; Date for Submission of Stockholder Proposals
Fluidigm Corporation (the “Company”) currently intends to hold its annual meeting of stockholders on Wednesday, July 29, 2015 (the “2015 Annual Meeting”). The exact time and location of the 2015 Annual Meeting will be specified in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2015 Annual Meeting.
Because the expected date of the 2015 Annual Meeting represents a change of more than 30 calendar days from the date of the anniversary of the Company’s 2014 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company is affirming the deadline for receipt of stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2015 Annual Meeting. In order to be considered timely, such proposals must be received in writing by the Company’s Corporate Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices at 7000 Shoreline Court, Suite 100, South San Francisco, California 94080 by the close of business on Monday, June 8, 2015. Such proposals also must comply with the applicable requirements of Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials and other applicable laws.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
