Item 1. Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered.
On
August 15, 2008, PMFG, Inc. (
“PMFG”) entered into a
Rights Agreement (the
“Rights
Agreement”) with Mellon Investor Services LLC, as rights agent. PMFG entered into the Rights
Agreement in connection with the previously announced holding company reorganization of Peerless
Mfg. Co. (
“Peerless”). In the reorganization, Peerless, a Texas corporation, will become a wholly
owned subsidiary of PMFG, a Delaware corporation. Upon the completion of the reorganization, each
share of Peerless common stock, par value $1.00 per share, will be automatically converted into two
shares of PMFG common stock, par value $.01 per share.
Under the
Rights Agreement, PMFG will issue one right (a
“Right”) for each share of PMFG
common stock that is issued in connection with the reorganization. The Rights will provide,
subject to specified exceptions and limitations, that shares of PMFG common stock issued or
delivered from PMFG’s treasury after the completion of the reorganization will be entitled to and
accompanied by Rights. Holders of the rights may purchase 1/100th of a share of PMFG common stock
at a discounted price if a person or group (other than certain institutional investors specified in
the rights plan) acquires beneficial ownership of 20 percent or more of the outstanding shares of
PMFG common stock. Rights held by those that exceed the 20 percent threshold will be void. The
rights plan also includes an exchange option. In general, after the rights become exercisable,
PMFG’s board of directors may, at its discretion, effect an exchange of part or all of the rights
(other than rights that have become void) for shares of PMFG common stock. Under this option, PMFG
would issue one share of PMFG common stock for each right, subject to adjustment in certain
circumstances.
