On May 20, 2009, Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (EFI or the Company) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission its Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company to be held on June 19, 2009 (the Proxy Statement), which contains, among other things, a proposal submitted to the Companys stockholders to approve a one-time stock option exchange program for employees of the Company (the Employee Stock Option Exchange Program). The Proxy Statement does not constitute an offer to holders of the Companys outstanding stock options to exchange those options. The proposed Employee Stock Option Exchange Program will only be commenced, if at all, if stockholders approve the proposals to approve the Employee Stock Option Exchange Program and the Companys 2009 Equity Incentive Award Plan.
The option exchange described in this Schedule has not yet commenced. EFI will file a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, upon the commencement of the option exchange. Persons who are eligible to participate in the option exchange should read the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO and other related materials when those materials become available, because they will contain important information about the option exchange.
EFI stockholders and option holders will be able to obtain the written materials described above and other documents filed by EFI with the SEC free of charge from the SECs website at www.sec.gov. In addition, stockholders and option holders may obtain free copies of the documents filed by EFI with the SEC by directing a written request to: Electronics For Imaging, Inc., 303 Velocity Way, Foster City, California 94404, Attention: Investor Relations.
