While we intend to carefully consider the voting results of proposals Three and Four, the final votes are advisory in nature and therefore not binding on us, our Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee. Our Board of Directors and Compensation Committee value the opinions of all our shareholders and will consider the outcome of these votes when making future compensation decisions for our executive officers and the frequency of advisory votes on executive compensation. It is currently expected that shareholders will be given an opportunity to cast an advisory vote on this topic annually, with the next opportunity occurring in connection with the Company’s annual meeting in 2015.

 

Where are the Company’s principal executive offices located, and what is the Company’s main telephone number?

The Company’s principal executive offices are located at 222 W. Las Colinas Blvd., Suite 744 East Tower, Irving, Texas 75039. The Company’s main telephone number is (972) 868-9066.

 

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting ?

The record date for the Annual Meeting is October 17, 2014. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on that date are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the record date, 13,802,663 shares of our Common Stock, $.01 par value per share, were outstanding and entitled to vote and 1,000 shares of our Series A preferred shares, $0.0001 par value per share, were outstanding and entitled to vote. Holders of the Company’s Series A preferred stock have the authority to elect a majority of the Board of Directors (the Class I Directors).

Our stock transfer books will remain open between the date of the Notice of Annual Meeting and the date of the Annual Meeting. A list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for inspection at our principal executive offices.

 

How many votes do I have ?

Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share held. As a result, a total of 13,802,663 votes may be cast by the holders of Common Stock on each matter at the Annual Meeting. Additionally, holders of the Company’s Series A preferred stock have the authority to elect a majority of the Board of Directors (the Class I Directors). Currently, Mr. K.W. (“K.D.”) Diepholz, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, is the holder of 100 % of the outstanding Series A preferred shares and, accordingly, Mr. Diepholz has the authority to elect a majority of the Board of Directors (the Class I Directors).

 

What is the difference between a stockholder of record and a beneficial owner of shares held in street name ?

Stockholder of Record. If your shares are registered directly in your name with the Company’s transfer agent, Signature Stock Transfer, Inc., you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares.

Beneficial Owner of Shares Held in Street Name. If your shares are held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name.” The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct that organization on how to vote the shares held in your account.

 

If I am a stockholder of record of Common Stock, how do I cast my vote ?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote by mailing a completed proxy card. To vote by mailing a proxy card, please sign and return the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed prepaid and self-addressed envelope and your shares will be voted at the Annual Meeting in the manner you directed. You may also vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting. If you are a stockholder of record, you may request a ballot at the Annual Meeting.

 

If I am a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, how do I cast my vote ?

If you are the beneficial owner of shares are held in street name, you will receive instructions from the brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer or other similar organization (the “record holder”) that must be followed for the record holder to vote your shares per your instructions. Please complete and return the voting instruction card in the self-addressed postage paid envelope provided.

 

2
 

 

If your shares are held in street name and you wish to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a proxy issued in your name from the record holder and bring it with you to the meeting. We recommend that you vote your shares in advance as described above so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

 

What is a quorum ?

A quorum must be present at the Annual Meeting for any business to be conducted. The presence at the Annual Meeting, either in person or by proxy, of holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on the record date will constitute a quorum. Accordingly, shares of Common Stock representing 6,901,332 votes and shares of Series A preferred shares representing 501 votes must be present, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting to constitute a quorum. Abstentions and “broker non-votes” will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present for the transaction of business.

If a quorum is not present, the Annual Meeting will be adjourned until a quorum is obtained.

 

What is a broker non-vote ?

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the record holder with specific voting instructions, under the rules of various national securities exchanges, the record holder may generally vote on routine matters but cannot vote on non-routine matters. If the record holder does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matter, the record holder will inform the inspector of election that it does not have the authority to vote on this matter with respect to your shares. This is generally referred to as a “broker non-vote.”

 

What vote is required for each item ?

For Proposal One, the Class I Directors are elected by the vote of the holder(s) of the issued and outstanding Series A Preferred shares. For Proposal Two, the Class II Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the holders of the issued and outstanding common shares. Accordingly, as to the Class II Directors, the nominees receiving the highest number of votes cast will be elected as a Director. Abstentions will have no effect on the outcome of the election of candidates for Class II Directors. Due to the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the election of directors is now considered a non-routine matter on which brokers are not empowered to vote without instructions. Accordingly, there may be broker non-votes on Proposal Two. Should any nominee become unavailable to serve before the Annual Meeting, the proxies will be voted by the proxy holders for such other person as may be designated by our Board of Directors or for such lesser number of nominees as may be prescribed by the Board of Directors. Votes cast for the election of any nominee who has become unavailable will be disregarded. For Proposal Three, the measure will be approved or disapproved based on the highest number of votes cast. For Proposal Four, the measure will be approved or disapproved based on the highest number of votes cast.

 

What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions ?

If you are a stockholder of record and you do not specify how the shares represented thereby are to be voted, your shares will be voted in the manner recommended by the Board on all matters presented in this proxy statement and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and you do not specify how the shares represented thereby are to be voted, your broker may generally exercise its discretionary authority to vote your shares on routine matters, but your broker will not be permitted to vote your shares with respect to non-routine matters (Proposal Two).

 

What if I receive more than one set of proxy materials, proxy card or voting instruction form ?

If you receive more than one set of proxy materials, proxy card or voting instruction form because your shares are held in multiple accounts or registered in different names or addresses, please vote your shares held in each account to ensure that all of your shares will be voted.

 

3
 

 

 

Who will count the votes and how will my vote be counted ?

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes. If your proxy is properly submitted, the shares represented thereby will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with your instructions.

 

Can I change my vote after I have voted ?

If you are a stockholder of record, you may revoke or change your vote at any time before the Annual Meeting by filing a notice of revocation or another proxy card with a later date with the Corporate Secretary at DynaResource, Inc., 222 W. Las Colinas Blvd., Suite 744 East Tower, Irving, Texas 75039. If you are a stockholder of record and attend the Annual Meeting and vote by ballot, any proxy that you submitted previously to vote the same shares will be revoked automatically and only your vote at the Annual Meeting will be counted.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name, you should contact the record holder to obtain instructions if you wish to revoke or change your vote before the Annual Meeting. Please note, however, that if your shares are held in street name, your vote in person at the Annual Meeting will not be effective unless you have obtained and present a proxy issued in your name from the record holder.

 

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting ?

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. The final voting results will be tallied by the inspector of election and published in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which the Company is required to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) within four days following the Annual Meeting.

 

How and when may I submit a stockholder proposal for the 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders ?

In the event that a stockholder desires to have a proposal considered for presentation at the 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and included in our proxy statement and form of proxy card used in connection with that meeting, the proposal must be forwarded in writing to our Corporate Secretary so that it is received by a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and mail its proxy solicitation materials. Any such proposal must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).

 

To forward any stockholder proposals or notices of proposals or to receive a copy of our Bylaws, write to the Corporate Secretary at DynaResource, Inc., 222 W. Las Colinas Blvd., Suite 744 East Tower, Irving, Texas 75039.

 

Who will bear the cost of soliciting proxies ?

We will bear the entire cost of the solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting, including the preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this proxy statement, the proxy card and any additional solicitation materials furnished to stockholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage firms, bank, broker-dealer or other similar organization holding shares in their names that are beneficially owned by others so that they may forward the solicitation materials to the beneficial owners. We may reimburse such persons for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial owners. The original solicitation of proxies may be supplemented by solicitation by personal contact, telephone, facsimile, email or any other means by our directors, officers or employees, and we will reimburse any reasonable expenses incurred for that purpose. No additional compensation will be paid to those individuals for any such services.

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the SEC’s executive compensation disclosure rules (which disclosure includes the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables and the narrative discussion that accompanies the compensation tables), is hereby approved.

This vote is an advisory vote only and will not be binding on the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee, and will not be construed as overruling a decision by, or creating or implying any additional fiduciary duty for, the Board or the Compensation Committee. However, the Compensation Committee will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for Named Executive Officers.

The Company’s current policy is to provide shareholders with an opportunity to approve the compensation of the Named Executive Officers each year at the annual meeting of shareholders. It is expected that the next such vote will occur at the 2015 annual meeting of shareholders.

Required Vote

Approval of this Proposal No. 3 requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Company’s common stock present at the annual meeting in person or by proxy and entitled to vote on this proposal.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of the compensation paid to the company’s named executive officers.

 

Proposal Four

Approve the frequency of a shareholder advisory vote approving the compensation to executive officers required by paragraph (a) of Rule 14a-21 and whether it should occur every 1, 2 or 3 years.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote for “One Year” as the frequency of a shareholder advisory vote on executive compensation.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

 

Director Independence

The Board of Directors has determined that none of its current directors and nominees for election at the Annual Meeting, meet the definition of independent director under the current standards for “independence” established by NASDAQ.

 

Board Committees

We do not presently have a separately constituted audit committee, nominating committee, compensation committee, or committees performing similar functions.

At present, our entire Board of Directors acts as our audit committee. One member of our proposed Board, Mr. David S. Hall, meets the definition of “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

At present, our entire Board of Directors acts as our nominating committee. If the size of the Board is to be increased beyond the three current Board members, the Company will charter a nominating committee to participate in the consideration of director nominees.

At present, our entire Board of Directors acts as our compensation committee and accordingly, each director participates in the consideration of executive officer and director compensation.

 

Board Meetings in Fiscal Year 2013

During fiscal year 2013 and through the date of this Proxy Statement, our Board of Directors consisted of the following members, except that Charles Smith resigned on October 6, 2014:

K.W. (“K.D.”) Diepholz

Charles Smith

Melvin E. Tidwell

During fiscal year 2013, there was one formal regular meeting and two formal special meetings of the Board of Directors, as well as numerous informal informational sessions. Each member of the Board of Directors during fiscal year 2013 attended or participated in 100 percent of the total number of regular and special meetings of the Board of Directors held during the fiscal year.

 

Annual Meeting Attendance

Although the Company does not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of the Board of Directors at the annual meetings of stockholders, directors are encouraged to attend such meetings. All members of the Board of Directors attended the prior year’s annual meeting.

 

Communications with Directors

We have not in the past adopted a formal process for stockholder communications with the Board of Directors. Nevertheless, the directors have endeavored to ensure that the views of stockholders are heard by the Board or individual directors, as applicable, and that appropriate responses are provided to stockholders in a timely manner. Communications to the Board of Directors may be submitted in writing to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices at 222 W. Las Colinas Blvd., Suite 744 East Tower, Irving, Texas 75039. The Board of Directors relies upon the Corporate Secretary to forward written questions or comments to named directors or committees thereof, as appropriate. General comments or inquiries from stockholders are forwarded to the appropriate individual within the Company, including the President, as appropriate.

 

Code of Ethics

We do not currently have a written Code of Ethics applicable to our principal executive, financial, and accounting officers.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

 

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

  

11
 

 

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis provides disclosure about the policies and objectives underlying the compensation programs for our executive officers. Accordingly, we will address and analyze each element of the compensation provided to our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer and the other executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table which follows this discussion; these individuals are referred to as the named executive officers.

Compensation Policy for Executive Officers. We have designed the various elements comprising the compensation packages of our executive officers to achieve the following objectives:

  • reflect individual accomplishments and contributions to the Company as well as overall Company performance;
  • align each executive officer’s interests with those of the Company’s stockholders; and
  • attract and retain qualified executives who will help the Company meets its goals.

Each executive officer’s compensation package has historically consisted of three elements: (i) a base salary, (ii) a cash bonus based upon the individual officer’s personal performance, and (iii) participation in long-term, stock-based incentive awards, in the form of restricted stock, designed to align and strengthen the mutuality of interests between our executive officers and our stockholders.

When establishing the compensation levels for the executive officers, we take into account the Company’s overall performance and its evaluation of each executive officer’s individual performance level and his potential contribution to the Company’s future growth. Over the years, the Company has endeavored to follow a pay-for-performance philosophy when Company performance measures have been achieved.

Elements of Compensation.    Each of the major elements comprising the compensation package for executive officers (salary, bonus and equity) is (i) designed to reflect individual accomplishments and contributions to the Company as well as overall Company performance, (ii) align the executive’s interests with those of our stockholders and (iii) attract and retain qualified executives who will help the Company meet its goals. The manner in which each element of compensation has been structured may be explained as follows:

Salary.    The base salary level of each executive officer is reviewed once each year. The Company targets base salaries to be in the range of 80 percent to 90 percent of market. However, the Company may also consider the performance of the executive, contributions by the executive towards the Company’s mission/goals and tenure at the Company. The Company believes that this component of compensation should provide a level of security and stability from year to year and not be dependent to any material extent on the Company’s financial performance.

Incentive Compensation.    The bonus structure is generally designed to bring the total cash compensation for our executives up to market in a typical year and to exceed market when justified by company performance.

Long-Term Incentives.    We currently have no contractual long-term incentives for our executive officers.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

The Company does not have any contract, agreement, plan or arrangement with its named executive officers that provides for payments to a named executive officer at, following, or in connection with the resignation, retirement or other termination of a named executive officer, or a change in control of the Company, or a change in the named executive officer’s responsibilities following a change in control.

 

Retirement Plans

The Company does not have any plan that provides for the payment of retirement benefits, or benefits that will be paid primarily following retirement.

 

15
 

 

 

Equity Compensation Plans

The Company does not have any plan that provides for equity compensation.

 

Compensation of Directors

In the past, the Company has not instituted a policy of compensating non-management directors. However, the Company plans to use stock-based compensation to attract and retain qualified candidates to serve on its Board of Directors. In setting director compensation, the Company will consider the significant amount of time that directors expend in fulfilling their duties to the Company, as well as the skill-level required by the Company of its Board members. Directors are not subject to a minimum share ownership requirement.

The Company currently has no compensation plans for non-management directors.

 

 

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

The Board of Directors is responsible for review, approval, or ratification of “related-person transactions” involving the Company or its subsidiaries and related persons. Under SEC rules, a related person is a director, officer, nominee for director, or five percent stockholder of the Company since the beginning of the previous fiscal year, and their immediate family members. We have adopted written policies that apply to any transaction or series of transactions in which the Company or a subsidiary is a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and a related person has a direct or indirect material interest. If the Board determines a related person has a material interest in a transaction, the Board may approve, ratify, rescind, or take other action with respect to the transaction in its discretion.

During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company paid compensation to Dynacap Group, Ltd., a private consulting firm, in the following amounts:

In 2013: $52,500 for consulting and other fees;

In 2012: $102,500 for consulting and other fees.

 

Mr. K.W. (“K.D.”) Diepholz, Chairman and CEO of the Company and Mr. Charles Smith, former Chief Financial Officer, are the Managers of Dynacap Group, Ltd.

The Company is not aware of any other relationships or transactions, since the beginning of the previous fiscal year, in which the Company and one or more of its directors, officers, nominees for director, five percent stockholders and/or their immediate family members have a direct or indirect material interest.

 

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not aware of any legal proceedings in which any director, nominee, officer or affiliate of the Company, any owner of record or beneficially of more than five percent of any class of voting securities of the Company, or any associate of any such director, nominee, officer, affiliate of the Company or security holder is a party adverse to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

 

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

16
 

 This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are our stockholders will be “householding” the proxy materials. A single proxy statement will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and annual report, you may (i) notify your broker, (ii) direct your written request to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices at 222 W. Las Colinas Blvd., Suite 744 East Tower, Irving, Texas 75039, or (3) contact DynaResource directly at (972) 868-9066. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy statement at their address and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their broker. In addition, we will promptly deliver, upon written or oral request at the address or telephone number above, a separate copy of the proxy statement and annual report to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of these materials was delivered.

 

OTHER MATTERS

The Board of Directors knows of no other business that will be presented at the Annual Meeting. If any other business is properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is intended that the proxies in the enclosed form will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the person voting the proxies.

 

 

WHETHER OR NOT YOU PLAN TO ATTEND THE ANNUAL MEETING, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOUR SHARES BE REPRESENTED AND VOTED AT THE MEETING REGARDLESS OF THE NUMBER OF SHARES YOU MAY HOLD. THEREFORE, WE URGE YOU TO VOTE AS PROMPTLY AS POSSIBLE. YOU MAY VOTE YOUR SHARES BY RETURNING THE ENCLOSED PROXY CARD. TIMELY VOTING WILL ENSURE YOUR REPRESENTATION AT THE ANNUAL MEETING. IF YOU DECIDE TO ATTEND THE ANNUAL MEETING, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO VOTE IN PERSON, EVEN IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY SUBMITTED YOUR PROXY.
