To the Stockholders of
Medical Advisory Systems, Inc.:
We will hold a special meeting of stockholders on March 18, 2002, 2:00 p.m., local time, at the Colony South Hotel and Conference Center, 7401 Surratts Drive, Clinton, Maryland 20735, for the following purposes:
1. | to approve an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 1, 2001, pursuant to which Digital Angel Acquisition Co., a Delaware corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary, will merge with and into Digital Angel Corporation, a Delaware corporation; | |
2. | to amend our certificate of incorporation to change our name to Digital Angel Corporation and to authorize 85,000,000 additional shares of common stock, par value $0.005; and | |
3. | to transact such other business as may properly come before the special meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the special meeting. |
The merger proposal is more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement and appendices that are part of this notice.
MASs board of directors has fixed the close of business on January 31, 2002 as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the special meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the special meeting. Only stockholders of record as of January 31, 2002 will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the special meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the special meeting. A list of stockholders of record as of January 31, 2002 will be available for inspection at our offices at 8050 Southern Maryland Boulevard, Owings, Maryland 20736 at least ten days prior to the special meeting.
MASs board of directors and management welcome your attendance at the special meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the special meeting, we request that you complete, sign, date and promptly return the enclosed proxy in the accompanying postage-paid envelope. Your proxy will not affect your right to vote in person if you attend the special meeting. You can revoke your proxy at the special meeting as described under THE SPECIAL MEETING Proxies; Proxy Solicitation on page 33 of the accompanying proxy statement. Simply attending the special meeting will not revoke your proxy. Failure to return a properly executed proxy card or to vote in person at the special meeting will have the same effect as a vote against the merger.
MASS BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE MERGER AGREEMENT AND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE MERGER AND THE AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION.
YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT.
Sincerely, | |
