KATY INDUSTRIES, INC. ANNUAL MEETING TO BE ADJOURNED
ENGLEWOOD, CO - June 25, 2001 -- Katy Industries, Inc. (NYSE: KT) announced
today that it expects its reconvened annual meeting of stockholders scheduled
for Tuesday, June 26, 2001 to be further adjourned to Thursday, June 28, 2001.
Katy and KKTY Holding Company, L.L.C., an affiliate of an investment partnership
affiliated with Kohlberg & Company, L.L.C., had announced on June 3, 2001 that
they had entered into a definitive agreement for a recapitalization of Katy.
Completion of the recapitalization is subject to a number of conditions,
including Katy shareholders having authorized the recapitalization at the annual
meeting and Katy having entered into definitive documentation with respect to a
refinancing of Katy's existing loans.
Katy's June 8, 2001 proxy supplement states that the proxy holders intend to
propose one or more adjournments of the annual meeting so that the annual
meeting can take place on the same day as, or soon before, the satisfaction of
the conditions to the transactions with KKTY Holding. The proxy holders have
now indicated that they will vote in favor of an adjournment of the annual
meeting to June 28, 2001 so that the annual meeting can take place on the same
day as the expected closing of the refinancing. The closing of the refinancing
is conditioned on shareholder approval of the recapitalization. The adjourned
annual meeting is expected to take place at 9:00 a.m. local time at the Inter-
Continental Central Park South, located at 112 Central Park South, New York, New
York.
The recapitalization is described in Katy's proxy statement dated April 25,
2001, as modified by Katy's proxy supplement dated June 8, 2001.
Katy Industries, Inc. is a diversified corporation with interests primarily in
Electrical/Electronics and Maintenance Products.
KKTY is an affiliate of Kohlberg & Company, L.L.C., a private merchant banking
firm with offices in New York and California. Founded in 1987, Kohlberg &
Company, L.L.C. has completed more than 70 acquisitions and recapitalization
transactions in a variety of industries.
