南宫娱乐官网

OKLAHOMA CITY, June 13, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 南宫娱乐官网 Energy Corporation (Nasdaq:GPOR) ("南宫娱乐官网") held its 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders today. The proposals considered at the Annual Meeting are described in detail in 南宫娱乐官网's definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on April 30, 2013, as supplemented by additional definitive proxy soliciting materials filed with the SEC on June 7, 2013 (together, the "Proxy"). As of April 23, 2013, the record date, 77,375,107 shares of common stock were outstanding and entitled to vote at the 2013 Annual Meeting, excluding 389,110 shares of 南宫娱乐官网's restricted common stock granted under its Amended and Restated 2005 Stock Incentive Plan but not yet vested.

At today's Annual Meeting, 南宫娱乐官网's stockholders voted and approved the following proposals found in the Proxy: (i) Proposal 1 to elect the nominated directors, (ii) Proposal 3 to approve 南宫娱乐官网's 2013 Restated Stock Incentive Plan, (iii) Proposal 4 to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to 南宫娱乐官网's named executive officers as reported in the Proxy and (iv) Proposal 5 to ratify Grant Thornton LLP as 南宫娱乐官网's independent auditors for 2013. 南宫娱乐官网 considered the recommendation from the proxy advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Services ("ISS") and the preliminary stockholder vote received by 南宫娱乐官网 on Proposal 2 found in the Proxy and determined to revise Proposal 2 consistent with ISS' recommendation so that Proposal 2 will now provide for an amendment to 南宫娱乐官网's restated certificate of incorporation to increase the total number of authorized shares of common stock from 100 million to 200 million, rather than 250 million, as was initially contemplated by Proposal 2.

Due to the foregoing, 南宫娱乐官网's 2013 Annual Meeting was adjourned with respect to Proposal 2 to solicit stockholders' votes on the revised Proposal 2. The 2013 Annual Meeting will reconvene on July 18, 2013 at 10 a.m. at 南宫娱乐官网's corporate offices located at 14313 N. May Avenue, Suite 100, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73134 for the purpose of holding a stockholder vote on the revised Proposal 2. The charter amendment to increase the authorized shares of common stock requires the affirmative "FOR" vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of 南宫娱乐官网's common stock entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions will have the same effect as negative votes in determining whether this proposal was approved by the stockholders. Broker non-votes will not be counted for voting purposes and will have no effect on the result of the vote on this proposal.

During the period of the adjournment, 南宫娱乐官网 will mail notice of the revised Proposal 2 and a new proxy card to 南宫娱乐官网's stockholders of record as of April 23, 2013 and will solicit proxies with respect to the revised Proposal 2. Stockholders are encouraged to vote on the revised Proposal 2. Stockholders are also encouraged to read the Proxy and any additional definitive proxy soliciting materials that 南宫娱乐官网 may file with the SEC in connection with the revised Proposal 2. You may also contact 南宫娱乐官网's proxy solicitor, MacKenzie Partners, Inc., at (212) 929-5500 or toll-free at (800) 322-2885 if you need assistance with voting.

This information is being provided to certain stockholders in addition to the Proxy which you already received. Please read the complete Proxy, the accompanying materials and any additional proxy soliciting materials that 南宫娱乐官网 may file with the SEC carefully before you make a voting decision.
