Dear Stockholder:
The Annual Meeting of Stockholders of WPCS International Incorporated is just a few days away, and we have not yet received your proxy.
Your Board of Directors has unanimously recommended that stockholders return the enclosed proxy card voting FOR all of the Items on the agenda.
Specifically, Proposal 5 seeks your approval to issue common stock under a financing agreement with six accredited investors in order to comply with NASDAQ rules. Your Board of Directors has determined that the financing is necessary to support WPCS’ working capital needs.
Please note that both of the nation’s leading independent proxy advisory firms – ISS and Glass Lewis & Co. – recommend that shareholders vote FOR Proposal 5. These firms’ recommendations are relied upon by thousands of institutional investors, pension funds and mutual funds throughout the country.
In addition, you should be aware that if we do not obtain stockholder approval for Proposal 5 at this Annual Meeting, we are required to seek stockholder approval on an annual basis under our contractual commitment. You can avoid the expense of further solicitation and assist your company in taking its next step forward.
Please help by voting TODAY by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided.
Sincerely,
Andrew Hidalgo
Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors
