Item 5.08      Shareholder Director Nominations.

The 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of B. Riley Financial, Inc. (the “Company”) will be held at the offices of the Company’s subsidiary, B. Riley & Co., LLC, located at 11100 Santa Monica Blvd., Suite 800, Los Angeles, CA 90025, on August 13, 2015, at 1:00 p.m. local time.

 

Because the Annual Meeting will be held more than 30 days prior to the date of the anniversary of the Company’s 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the deadline for any stockholder proposal or stockholder nomination under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) listed in the Company’s 2014 Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, as filed with the SEC on September 15, 2014, is no longer applicable. Proposals for stockholders intended for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for consideration at the Annual Meeting are required to be delivered to the Company by no later than June 23, 2015 and directed to the attention of the Company’s Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices at 21860 Burbank Blvd., Suite 300 South, Woodland Hills, CA 91367. For all other proposals by stockholders to be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received by the Company’s Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices no later June 28, 2015. Other requirements for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials are set forth in the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and the Company’s Bylaws.
