On October 18, 2013, RCM Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“RCM” or the “Company”), filed a preliminary proxy statement (the “Preliminary Proxy Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in connection with its solicitation of proxies to be used at RCM’s 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and at any and all adjournments or postponements thereof (the “2013 Annual Meeting”).
Press Release Dated October 18, 2013
Attached hereto as Exhibit 1 is RCM’s press release, dated October 18, 2013, announcing that it had filed preliminary proxy materials with the SEC in connection with the 2013 Annual Meeting. In the press release, RCM also announced that its board of directors (the “Board”) had nominated Michael E.S. Frankel and Robert B. Kerr for election to the Board at the 2013 Annual Meeting. Mr. Frankel, who would be a new independent director, would replace current director Lawrence Needleman who, following six years of dedicated service to RCM, has chosen to retire from the Board following the 2013 Annual Meeting. Mr. Kerr is an existing member of the Board and currently serves as the Board’s Lead Independent Director and Audit Committee Chair.
