All such stock will be fully paid and non-assessable, and no personal liability will attach to stockholders.
Pu r p o s e o f t h e Pr o p o s e d Is s u e o f St o c k
By the terras of a contract entered into upon December 22, 1921, between" Anaconda Copper Mining Company and Charles F. Brooker, Rovall Victor, Harris AVhittemore, Adrian H. Larkin and Charles F. Bliss, acting as a Committee for Stockholders of The American Brass Company, this Company is required to purchase and pay for all or any part of the shares of The American Brass Company, which shall be deposited for sale to this Company on or before the 31st day of January, 1922, with the Colonial Trust Company, of AVaterbury, Connecticut, or the Mechanics & Metals National Bank, of the City of New York, who are named as depositaries for such stock by the terms of such contract with such Committee, provided only that at least 51^ of the outstanding shares of The American Brass Company be deposited for such sale within such period. And it is further in substance provided, that if at least 51% of the total outstanding shares of The American Brass Company shall have been so deposited on or before January 31, 1922, then on or before February 10, 1922, the Anaconda Copper Mining Company will deliver to the respective depositaries for the account of the depositing shareholders of The American Brass Company three shares of the Capital Stock of the Anaconda Copper Alining Company, and $150 in cash for each of the American Brass shares so deposited, and will there upon be entitled to receive the deposited shares of The American Brass Company. At this date (January 17,1922), there have been deposited for such sale to this Company under the terms of such agreement, an aggre gate of more than 519c of the shares of the stock of TheAmerican Brass Company, and the obligation of this Com pany to take and pay for all such shares as well as all such shares as may be so deposited up to and including the 31st day of January, 1922, has become firm. The American Brass Company is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Connecticut, and has an authorized Capita] Stock of the par value of $15,000,000* consisting of 150,000 shares of the par value of $100 each, all of which are issued and outstanding.
The purpose of issuing the 233,125 shares, listing of which is above provided for, and which are to be issued at par for cash, is to acquire funds to the amount of $11,656,250 to be used and applied in payment for shares of The American Brass Company, under the contract above referred to; and the additional 435,625 shares for which application is made for a listing will be issued and used to the extent necessary in making payment to shareholders of The American Brass Company for shares of stock of that Company under the terms of the contract above referred to.
The Anaconda Copper Mining Company has an authorized Capital Stock of $150,000,000, divided into 3.000. 000 shares of the par value of $50 each. Prior to May 19, 1915, its Capita! Stock was divided into 6.000. 000 shares of the par value of $25 each, but upon that date, by proper stockholders' vote in proceedings conforming to the laws of Montana, the number of shares was reduced to 3,000,000, and the par value of the shares increased to $50.
The certificate of the Secretary of State of Montana showing that the reduction in the number of shares and increase of the par value thereof had become effective was delivered to the Secretary of the Exchange on the 22nd day of June, 1915.
By letter addressed to the stockholders of the Company by its President on the 21st day of July, 1915* stockholders were notified as follows:
"New eertifieitea of the par value of I5Q each, will be ready for inue tor exchange for the preeenc outataadisr certificates, of the per vein of *25 each, o d tod after July 22, 1925, at the National City Bank of New York, 55 Wall Street, Mew York City. One there of the be* 150 atcck will be iaaued for each two abarea of the old 125 ttock; end in h im where tuck exchange eea not be made into full eberee of the new certificates, bearer scrip certificate will be iaued lor the half there."
It appears from the records of the Company that certificates for 2,330,528 shares of Capital Stock of the par value of $50 per share have been registered and that there are outstanding and unexchanged 1,252 regis tered shares of $25 par value. It also appears from such records that an amount of such scrip is outstanding which will require the issue of 96 shares of the par value of $50 each upon being presented for exchange. The total number of the at present outstanding shares together with such additional shares as must be reserved for exchange for scrip and old certificates, is 2,331,250 shares, leaving unissued and now available for issue for the purpose of this application, 668,750 shares.
After disposition for cash of the 233,125 shares, the listing of which is first above applied for, there will remain 435,625 unissued shares. Inasmuch as the Company will be required to deliver, under the terns of the contract for the purchase of shares of The American Brass Company, 450,000 shares of its Capital Stock, if all of the outstanding shares of The American Brass Company should be acquired, it will be seen that it will need, in such case, to supply from its present listed and outstanding stock, 14,375 shares. Provision has been made for this additional requirement, and the Company is in a position to make a complete delivery in accord ance with the terms of such contract.
At the meeting of the Board: of Directors of the Company, held on the 20th day of December, 1921, the Board by resolution duly authorized the execution of the contract aforesaid with the Committee of Share holders of The American Brass Company; and at the same meeting authorized the mailing to all the shareholders of the Company of a circular Ietter_by which they were advised of.the determination of the Company to enter into such contract, cnc! of the reasons therefor, fiich letter contains a description of the property and assets of 'ihe American Brass Company, and states the plan of the Companv fer dnam-mg such purchase
