thereon.
The application also requests an order declaring
that Koppers has ceased to be a holding company.
In 1945, Koppers
held 78% of the then outstanding common stock and approximately
13% of the then outstanding 6% preferred stock of Eastern. By virtue
of
a
1950
recapitalization,
Koppers'
holdings were exchanged for
563,347 shares (21%) of Eastern's new common stock.
From time to
time thereafter, Koppers disposed of 550,347 of these shares, leaving
a
balance of 13,000 shares constituting approximately
Vz of 1% of
Eastern's outstanding common stock.
