SUPPLEMENT NO. 1 DATED FEBRUARY 1, 2001,
TO PROXY STATEMENT DATED JANUARY 5, 2001
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The enclosed proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors (the "Board")
of Pallet Management Systems, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company"), for
use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on Thursday, March 1, 2001,
beginning at 11:00 A.M., Eastern Standard Time, at the Company's regional office
located at 2900 Highwoods Boulevard, Suite 200, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604
(the "Meeting"). The approximate date on which this supplement and the enclosed
proxy will first be sent to Shareholders is February 1, 2001.
In January 2001, the Company mailed to its Shareholders proxy
materials, accompanied by the Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended
June 24, 2000 (the "2000 Form 10-KSB"), for an Annual Meeting of Shareholders
then scheduled for January 29, 2001. The Company recently discovered that, as a
result of a printer's error, the copies of the 2000 Form 10-KSB mailed to
Shareholders did not include the Company's financial statements. A copy of the
2000 Form 10-KSB including the financial statements is enclosed.
Because the Company had to send these supplemental proxy materials, the
Company's Board of Directors changed the date of the Annual Meeting of
Shareholders to March 1, 2001. The expenses in connection with the change in
meeting date are being paid by third parties.
A STOCKHOLDER WHO PREVIOUSLY SUBMITTED A PROXY OR WHO SUBMITS A PROXY
ON THE ACCOMPANYING FORM HAS THE POWER TO REVOKE IT AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO ITS USE
BY DELIVERING A WRITTEN NOTICE TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY, BY EXECUTING A
LATER-DATED PROXY, OR BY ATTENDING THE MEETING AND VOTING IN PERSON. UNLESS
AUTHORITY IS WITHHELD, PROXIES THAT ARE PROPERLY EXECUTED WILL BE VOTED FOR THE
PURPOSES SET FORTH THEREON.
