CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This proxy statement and other documents referenced herein contain certain statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The words “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “goal,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” and similar expressions and variations thereof are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Those statements appear in this proxy statement and the documents referenced herein and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and management that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and other factors that could cause actual results and the timing of certain events to differ materially from future results expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the sections titled “Certain Risks and Potential Disadvantages Associated with Reverse Stock Split” and “Reasons for the Authorized Shares Reduction; Certain Risks” in this proxy statement.
This proxy statement also contains statements that are based on the Board’s and management’s current expectations and beliefs, including statements about the actions to be taken by the Board in response to the stockholder vote, the manner in which the Reverse Stock Split and Authorized Shares Reduction will be effected, the timing of the Reverse Stock Split and Authorized Shares Reduction, and the expected effects of the Reverse Stock Split and Authorized Shares Reduction.
Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur or may not occur within the anticipated time frame and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events or otherwise.
We have adopted a practice called “householding.” This practice allows us to deliver only one copy of certain of our stockholder communications (such as the notice of special meeting and our proxy materials) to stockholders who have the same address and last name and who do not participate in email delivery of these materials, unless one or more of these stockholders notifies us that he or she would like to receive an individual copy of these notices or materials. If you share an address with another stockholder and receive only one set of proxy-related materials and would like to request a separate copy for this year’s Special Meeting or for any future meetings or stockholder communications, please send your written request to Intrepid Potash, Inc., 1001 17th Street, Suite 1050, Denver, Colorado 80202, Attention: Secretary, or call us at (303) 296-3006. Upon written or oral request, we will promptly deliver a separate copy to you. Similarly, you may also contact us through either of these methods if you receive multiple copies of proxy-related materials and other stockholder communications and would prefer to receive a single copy in the future.
A stockholder who would like to have a proposal considered for inclusion in our 2021 proxy statement pursuant to SEC Rule 14a-8 must submit the proposal so that it is received by us no later than December 8, 2020, unless the date of our 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is more than 30 days before or after May 19, 2021, in which case the proposal must be received a reasonable time before we begin to print and send our proxy materials. SEC rules set standards for eligibility and specify the types of stockholder proposals that may be excluded from a proxy statement. Stockholder proposals should be addressed to the Secretary, Intrepid Potash, Inc., 1001 17th Street, Suite 1050, Denver, Colorado 80202.
For stockholder proposals submitted outside of the SEC proposal rules, our Bylaws require that advance written notice in proper form of stockholder proposals for matters to be brought before an annual meeting be received by our Secretary not less than 90 days or more than 120 days before the first anniversary date of the immediately preceding Special Meeting. Accordingly, notice of stockholder proposals for the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must be received by us between January 19, 2021 and February 18, 2021. If the date of the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is more than 30 days before or 70 days after May 19, 2021, we must
