SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OUTSTANDING REDUCED FROM 14,291,970 TO 8,919,990
On November 16, 2011, the Great Lakes Aviation, Ltd. obtained $29.5 million of funding available under a new financing facility. On that day, the debt obligations with Great Lakes' previous lender, Raytheon Aircraft Credit Corporation, were extinguished and 5,371,980 shares of the Company's common stock owned by Raytheon Aircraft Credit Corporation were returned to the Company. The Company has subsequently cancelled these shares and returned such shares to the Company's authorized but unissued common stock. After giving effect to the cancellation of these shares, the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding was reduced from 14,291,970 shares to 8,919,990 shares.
