Item 8.01 Other Events
In April 2014, the management (“Management”) of America’s Suppliers Inc. (the “Company”) conducted an internal review of the Company to attempt to identify opportunities to potentially reduce the Company’s overall expenses, including, without limitation, terminating the registration of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “De-Registration”). Based on that review, Management has recommended that the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) form a special committee comprised solely of independent members of the Board (the “Committee”) to evaluate and recommend to the Board whether it is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders to proceed with the De-Registration. The Board anticipates forming the Committee in the near future and having those members deemed disinterested in the De-Registration vote in favor of the Committee’s recommendation.
As of the date of this report, neither Management nor the Committee or the Board has made any definitive determinations as to what, if any, actions to take regarding the De-Registration and to otherwise potentially reduce the Company’s operating expenses.
