Item 5. Other Events.
At a meeting held on June 22, 2000, the Board of Directors of Jaco
Electronics, Inc. (the "Company"), declared a three-for-two stock split-up in
the form of a 50% stock dividend (the "Stock Split") with respect to the issued
and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $.10 per share ("Common
Stock"), which was paid on July 24, 2000 to shareholders of record at the close
of business on July 10, 2000 (the "Record Date").
No fractional shares of Common Stock were distributed in connection
with the Stock Split. Each shareholder of record whose total number of shares
was not exactly divisible by two received cash in lieu of a fractional share.
The cash was in an amount equal to one-half of the fair market value of a share
of Common Stock after giving effect to the Stock Split, such fair market value
was determined on the basis of 66-2/3% of the closing sales price of the Common
Stock reported by The Nasdaq National Market on the Record Date.
As of the Record Date, the Company had 4,168,203 shares of Common
Stock outstanding and was obligated to issue 2,084,071 shares (excluding
fractional shares) pursuant to the Stock Split. In addition, as a result of the
antidilution provisions contained in the Company's 1993 Non-Qualified Stock
Option Plan, 1993 Stock Plan for Outside Directors, Restricted Stock Plan and
options granted to Joseph F. Hickey, Jr., a director, the Company is obligated
to issue an additional [_______] shares of Common Stock when options which were
previously granted or options which are to be granted under the plans, are
exercised.
Shares of the Company's Common Stock to be issued upon the exercise
of certain stock options have been registered under (i) a Registration Statement
on Form S-8/S-3 (Registration No. 33-8994) filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on March 3, 1995, (ii) a Post Effective Amendment No. 1 to a
Registration Statement on Form S-8/S-3 (Registration No. 33-8994) filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on April 10, 1998 and (iii) a Registration
Statement on Form S-8/S-3 (Registration No. 333-49877) filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on April 10, 1998 (collectively, the "Registration
Statements") . The Registration Statements are amended as a result of the filing
of this Current Report to include approximately [_____] additional shares which
are issuable under such options as a consequence of the Stock Split.
