Common Stock

 

                Voting Rights. Each share of our common stock is entitled to one vote on all stockholder matters. Shares of our common stock do not possess any cumulative voting rights.

 

Except for the election of directors, if a quorum is present, an action on a matter is approved if it receives the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter, unless otherwise required by applicable law, Nevada law, our Articles of Incorporation, as amended or Bylaws, as amended. The election of directors will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast in respect of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote, meaning that the nominees with the greatest number of votes cast, even if less than a majority, will be elected. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of common stock are subject to, and may be impacted by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we have designated, or may designate and issue in the future.

 

Dividend Rights. Each share of our common stock is entitled to equal dividends and distributions per share with respect to the common stock when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors, subject to any preferential or other rights of any outstanding preferred stock.

 

Liquidation and Dissolution Rights.

Other Matters. No holder of any shares of our common stock has a preemptive right to subscribe for any of our securities, nor are any shares of our common stock subject to redemption or convertible into other securities.

 

Anti-Takeover Provisions Under The Nevada Revised Statutes

 

Business Combinations

 

Sections 78.411 to 78.444 of the Nevada revised statues (the “NRS”) prohibit a Nevada corporation from engaging in a “combination” with an “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that such person becomes an interested stockholder and place certain restrictions on such combinations even after the expiration of the three-year period. With certain exceptions, an interested stockholder is a person or group that owns 10% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting power (including stock with respect to which the person has voting rights and any rights to acquire stock pursuant to an option, warrant, agreement, arrangement, or understanding or upon the exercise of conversion or exchange rights) or is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and was the owner of 10% or more of such voting stock at any time within the previous three years.

 

A Nevada corporation may elect not to be governed by Sections 78.411 to 78.444 by a provision in its articles of incorporation. We have such a provision in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, pursuant to which we have elected to opt out of Sections 78.411 to 78.444; therefore, these sections do not apply to us.

 

Control Shares

 

Nevada law also seeks to impede “unfriendly” corporate takeovers by providing in Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 of the NRS that an “acquiring person” shall only obtain voting rights in the “control shares” purchased by such person to the extent approved by the other stockholders at a meeting. With certain exceptions, an acquiring person is one who acquires or offers to acquire a “controlling interest” in the corporation, defined as one-fifth or more of the voting power. Control shares include not only shares acquired or offered to be acquired in connection with the acquisition of a controlling interest, but also all shares acquired by the acquiring person within the preceding 90 days. The statute covers not only the acquiring person but also any persons acting in association with the acquiring person.

 

A Nevada corporation may elect to opt out of the provisions of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 of the NRS. We have a provision in our Articles of Incorporation pursuant to which we have elected to opt out of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793; therefore, these sections do not apply to us.

 

Removal of Directors

 

Section 78.335 of the NRS provides that 2/3rds of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company is required to remove a Director from office. As such, it may be more difficult for stockholders to remove Directors due to the fact the NRS requires greater than majority approval of the stockholders for such removal.ex_178518.htm

Ottawa Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is incorporated in the State of Maryland.

The terms of our common stock are therefore subject to Maryland law, including the Maryland General Corporation Law, and the common and constitutional law of Maryland.

 

This exhibit describes the general terms of our common stock. This is a summary and does not purport to be complete. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws as they exist on the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K are incorporated by reference or filed as an exhibit to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of which this exhibit is a part, and amendments or restatements of each will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in future periodic or current reports in accordance with the rules of the SEC. You are encouraged to read these documents.

Authorized Capital Stock 

 

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock having a par value of $0.01 per share and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock having a par value of $0.01 per share.

The Company’s common stock is currently listed for quotation on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “OTTW.”

 

Voting Rights 

 

Because there are no issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s preferred stock, the holders of the Company’s common stock have exclusive voting rights in the Company. They elect the Company’s board of directors and act on other matters as are required to be presented to them under Maryland law or as are otherwise presented to them by the Company’s board. Generally, each holder of Company common stock is entitled to one vote per share and will not have any right to cumulate votes in the election of directors. If the Company issues shares of Company preferred stock, holders of the Company’s preferred stock may also possess voting rights, including the right, voting separately as a class, to elect one or more directors (in addition to the directors elected by the holders of the Company’s common stock).

 

The Company’s articles of incorporation provide that record holders of the Company’s common stock who beneficially own, either directly or indirectly, in excess of 10% of the Company’s outstanding shares are generally not entitled to any vote with respect to those shares held in excess of the 10% limit.

 

Liquidation Rights 

 

If there is any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Ottawa Savings Bank, the Company, as the sole holder of Ottawa Savings Bank’s capital stock, would be entitled to receive all of Ottawa Savings Bank’s assets available for distribution after payment or provision for payment of all debts and liabilities of Ottawa Savings Bank, including all deposit accounts and accrued interest. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of its common stock would be entitled to receive all of the assets of the Company available for distribution after payment or provision for payment of all its debts and liabilities. If the Company issues preferred stock, the preferred stock holders may have a priority over the holders of the common stock upon liquidation or dissolution.

 

 

 

 

Dividend Rights 

 

The Company can pay dividends if, as and when declared by its board of directors. The payment of dividends by the Company is limited by law and applicable regulation. The holders of common stock of the Company are entitled to receive and share equally in dividends declared by the board of directors of the Company. If the Company issues preferred stock, the holders of the preferred stock may have a priority over the holders of the common stock with respect to dividends.

 

Preemptive Rights; Redemption; Sinking Fund

 

Holders of the common stock of the Company are not be entitled to preemptive rights and the Company’s common stock is not subject to any mandatory redemption, sinking fund or other similar provisions. The common stock cannot be redeemed.
