14. Stockholder’s Equity

On August 28, 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved, and the Company effected, an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation that reduced the number of authorized shares of common stock from 195,000,000 to 30,000,000. The primary reason for the share reduction was to reduce the amount of the Company’s annual franchise tax in the State of Delaware. Each year, the Company is required to make franchise tax payments to the State of Delaware in an amount determined, in part, by the total number of shares of stock the Company is authorized to issue. Based on the Company’s previous capital structure and current Delaware tax rates, the Company’s annual Delaware state franchise tax was $180. Because of the authorized share reduction, the Company estimates, based on its current asset level, that the annual Delaware state franchise tax would be reduced by over $100. Under Delaware law, however, if an amendment changing the number of shares of authorized stock becomes effective during the year, the amount of franchise tax for that year will be calculated on a prorated basis, based on the date of passage of that amendment. Accordingly, the Company expects that the actual reduction in the Delaware state franchise tax payable with respect to fiscal year 2014 will be approximately $46.
