Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Effective as of March 21, 2016, Integrated Inpatient Solutions,
Inc. (the “Company”) is changing its jurisdiction of incorporation from the State of Nevada to the Republic of the
Marshall Islands (the “Reincorporation”) pursuant to a plan of conversion filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1 (the “Plan
of Conversion”), following approval by the Company’s board of directors on February 29, 2016 and written consent from
the holder of a majority of the voting power of the Company dated February 29, 2016 (the “Written Consent”). Pursuant
to the same approvals and consents, the Company’s name will change effective March 21, 2016 to Boston Carriers Inc. (the
“Name Change”). The Company submitted information regarding the Reincorporation and the Name Change to the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) on March 2, 2016 and requested that the Company be assigned a new stock symbol
effective March 21, 2016.
In connection with the Reincorporation, the Company filed
Articles of Conversion with the State of Nevada attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and the Articles of Domestication with the Republic
of the Marshall Islands attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 and the Articles of Incorporation with the Republic of the Marshall Islands
attached hereto as Exhibit 3.3.
Upon effectiveness of the Reincorporation, the rights of
the Company’s stockholders will be governed by the Business Corporations Act of the Marshall Islands, the Articles of Incorporation
attached hereto as Exhibit 3.3 and the bylaws attached hereto as Exhibit 3.4. As a Marshall Islands corporation following the
Reincorporation, the Company is deemed to be the same continuing entity as the Nevada corporation prior to the Reincorporation.
As such, the Company continues to possess all of the rights, privileges and powers it previously had, all of the property of the
Company and all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company, including all contractual obligations, and continues
with the same business, assets, liabilities, headquarters, officers and directors as immediately prior to the Reincorporation.
Upon effectiveness of the Reincorporation,
all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company automatically converted into issued and outstanding shares
of common stock of the Marshall Islands Company without any action on the part of the Company’s stockholders. In the same
manner, all of the issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock of the Company automatically converted into issued and outstanding
shares of preferred stock of the Marshall Islands Company holding identical rights as the pre-existing preferred stock without
any action on the part of the Company’s stockholders.
In connection with the Reincorporation, the Company’s Board of Directors and
the holder of the majority of the Company’s voting power also approved the change of the Company’s name to Boston
Carriers Inc. Additionally, the Board of Directors and the holder of the majority of the Company’s voting power have
also approved filing an amendment to the Company’s new, Marshall Islands Articles, which will be filed after
effectiveness of the Reincorporation which will increase the authorized shares of the Company’s capital stock to fifty
billion two million and one hundred thousand (50,002,100,000) shares of capital stock, of which (i) forty billion
(40,000,000,000) shares shall be shares of common stock, par value of US$0.0001 per share (the “Common
Shares”); (ii) five billion (5,000,000,000) shares shall be shares of Class B common stock, par value US$0.0001 per
share (the “Class B Shares”); (iii) one million eight hundred and fifty thousand (1,850,000) shares shall
be preferred shares, each with a par value of US$0.0001 (the “Series A Preferred Shares”), this
Series A Preferred Stock will automatically convert, with no action by the holders thereof, into shares of common stock of
the Corporation at a rate of 1,000 shares of common stock for each Series A Preferred share, on the date that is five (5)
business days following the distribution by the Corporation of a cash dividend to the shareholders of its common stock of all
amounts received by the Corporation as a refund to the Corporation from the United States Internal Revenue Service in
connection with the Corporation's 2014 federal tax return less a maximum of $20,000 which would solely be used to pay the
Corporation’s obligation under a settlement agreement relating to the Strong v. Strong lawsuit (the
"Dividend"). The Series A Preferred Shares are not participating shares and prior to conversion the holders thereof
shall not receive any dividend or other distribution from the Corporation and no portion of the Dividend will be distributed
for the benefit of the holders of Series A Preferred shares. Prior to conversion, however, the holders of Series A Preferred
shares shall be entitled to vote on all matters on which holders of common stock are entitled to vote and shall vote as if
such Series A Preferred shares had converted, provided however, that the holders of Series A Preferred shares shall not be
entitled to vote on any matter which would amend the terms of and restrictions on the Series A Preferred shares. (iv) two
hundred and fifty thousand (250,000) shares shall be preferred shares, each with a par value of US$0.0001 (the
“Series B Preferred Shares”) with the holder of this Series B Preferred stock having the right to
convert the preferred stock into common stock at a ratio of ten shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock held
and having no other right and (v) five billion (5,000,000,000) shares shall be preferred shares, each with a par value of
US$0.0001 (the “Series C Preferred Shares”).
The Amendment to the Marshall Islands Articles will be filed subsequent to the effectiveness
of the Reincorporation.
Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security
Holders.
Effective March 21, 2016, Integrated Inpatient Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”)
will reincorporate to the Republic of the Marshall Islands from the State of Nevada (the “Reincorporation”) pursuant
to a plan of conversion (the “Plan of Conversion”). On February 29, 2016, the holder of the Company’s Series
B Convertible Preferred Stock, which votes on an as converted basis with the Company’s Common Stock and which represents
approximately 92.5% of the combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock and Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock, voting as a single class, approved by written consent in lieu of a special stockholders’ meeting the Reincorporation.
The Reincorporation does not affect any of the Company’s material contracts
with any third parties, and the Company’s rights and obligations under such material contractual arrangements continue
to be rights and obligations of the Company after the Reincorporation. Although the Company has changed its primary office
address, the Reincorporation did not result in any change in business, jobs, management, location of any of the offices or
facilities, number of employees, assets, liabilities or net worth (other than as a result of the costs incident to the
Reincorporation) of the Company. The Reincorporation reduces the Company’s corporate costs and is expected to result in
reduced taxes for the Company on a going forward basis.
Pursuant to the Plan of Conversion, the Reincorporation
is effective as of March 21, 2016 and was effected by the Company filing (i) articles of conversion (the “Nevada Articles
of Conversion”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, (ii) a articles of domestication (the “Marshall
Islands Articles of Domestication”) with the Registrar of the Republic of Marshall Islands and (iii) an articles of
incorporation (the “Marshall Islands Articles of Incorporation”) with the Registrar of the Republic of Marshall Islands.
As a result of the Reincorporation:
| • | | the affairs of the Company ceased to be governed by the Nevada Revised Statutes, the
Company’s existing Articles of Incorporation and the Company’s existing Bylaws, and the affairs of the Company became
subject to the Business Corporations Act of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, the Marshall Islands Articles of Incorporation
and the Marshall Islands Bylaws; |
| • | | the Company as a Marshall Islands corporation is deemed to be the same entity as the
Company was as a Nevada corporation for all purposes under the laws of the Marshall Islands, with the Company’s existence
as a Marshall Islands corporation deemed to have commenced when it was initially formed in Nevada; |
| • | | each outstanding share of common stock of the Company as a Nevada corporation automatically
converted into an outstanding share of common stock of the Company as a Marshall Islands corporation; |
| • | | each outstanding share of preferred stock of the Company as a Nevada corporation automatically
converted into an outstanding share of preferred stock of the Company as a Marshall Islands corporation having identical rights
as such share had prior to the Reincorporation, including the right to convert into the same number of shares of common stock
of the Company as a Marshall Islands corporation; |
| • | | each outstanding option, warrant or other convertible right to acquire shares of common
stock of the Company as a Nevada corporation converted into an equivalent option, warrant or other convertible right to acquire,
upon the same terms and conditions (including the vesting schedule and exercise or conversion price per share applicable to each
such option, warrant or other convertible right), the same number of shares of common stock of the Company as a Marshall Islands
corporation; and |
| • | | each director and officer of the Company as a Nevada corporation continues to hold
his respective position with the Company as a Marshall Islands corporation. |
The Reincorporation does not affect the trading of the Company’s shares of common
stock on the OTC Markets in any respect. The Company, as a Marshall Islands corporation, will continue to file periodic reports
and other documents as and when required by the rules and regulations of the SEC. However, as a result of the Reincorporation,
we will qualify as a “Foreign Private Issuer.” The reporting requirements for Foreign Private Issuers are different
than for U.S. companies. For example, we will file an annual report on Form 20-F within four months after the end of each fiscal
year. As a Nevada corporation, we were required to file our annual report within ninety days after the end of each fiscal year.
Additionally, as a Foreign Private Issuer, we will not be required to file Quarterly Reports whereas historically we have been
required to file Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
Stockholders who are holding their shares of common stock of the Company
in electronic form at brokerage firms do not have to take any action as a result of the Reincorporation. Stockholders holding
paper certificates representing outstanding shares of common stock of the Company also do not need to take any action as a result
of the Reincorporation because each stock certificate continues to represent the same number of shares of common stock of the
Company as a Marshall Islands corporation.
The foregoing description of the Reincorporation, the Plan
of Conversion, the Nevada Articles of Conversion, the Marshall Islands Articles of Domestication, the Marshall Islands Articles
of Incorporation and the Marshall Islands Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the full text of such documents, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 2.1, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4, respectively, and
incorporated herein by reference.
Subsequent to the effectiveness
of these events, the Company will be Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Registrar of the Republic of the
Marshall Islands to increase the authorized number of shares of stock. This amendment will allow the Company to satisfy the obligations
pursuant to the Share Subscription Agreement between Boston Carriers, LTD and YP Holdings LLC which the Company assumed in connection
with its acquisition of Boston Carriers, LTD on December 31, 2015. The Share Subscription Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.4
to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 7, 2016.
Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation
or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
Reincorporation of the Company in Republic of Marshall Islands
Following approvals by our Board of Directors and the holder of a majority of the
voting power of the Company, the reincorporation of the Company in Nevada will be effective on March 21, 2016. The effects of
the Reincorporation are a change of the domicile of the Company from the State of Nevada to the Republic of the Marshall
Islands, which means that the surviving corporation will be governed by the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands; the
persons now serving as executive officers and directors of the Company became, with the effectiveness of the Reincorporation,
the executive officers and directors, in their same capacities, in the surviving corporation after the reincorporation.
The Reincorporation did not result in any change in our
business, management, location of our principal executive offices, assets, liabilities or net worth (other than as a result of
the costs incident to the Reincorporation process, which are immaterial). Our common stock will continue to trade without interruption
in the OTC Markets Group Pink Market. However, because the name of the Company has changed to Boston Carriers, Inc., the Company
submitted information regarding the Reincorporation and the Name Change to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”)
on March 2, 2016 and requested that the Company be assigned a new stock symbol effective March 21, 2016.
Reasons for the Reincorporation
After the Company acquired all of the assets of Boston Carriers,
Ltd. on December 31, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors concluded that the benefits afforded to the Company as a Marshall
Islands corporation outweigh those of being a Nevada corporation. Primarily, the reason for the move to Republic of the Marshall
Islands was to eliminate the potential exposure to a high level of corporate taxation which would exist as a Nevada corporation.
The principal reason for reincorporation from Nevada to the Marshall Islands is to eliminate our obligation to pay the corporate
income tax which we anticipate will result in significant savings to us in the future. For those reasons, our board of directors
on February 29, 2016, approved the reincorporation of the Company in the Marshall Islands and recommended the Reincorporation
to the Company’s shareholders for their approval, which was approved by the holder of the Company’s Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock, which votes on an as converted basis with the Company’s Common Stock and which represents approximately
92.5% of the combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding voting securities, voting as a single class, approved by
written consent in lieu of a special stockholders’ meeting.
Rights of Shareholders Will be Governed by Marshall
Islands Law
After the Reincorporation, the laws of the Republic of the
Marshall Islands will govern the rights of our shareholders rather than the laws of the State of Nevada.

the foregoing procedure, he shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded.
Section 3.4 Meetings.
The Board of Directors of the Corporation may hold meetings, both regular and special, either within or without the Republic of
the Marshall Islands. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be held without notice at such time and place as shall from

The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending

joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal
action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The
termination of any action, suit or
proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself,
create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe
that his conduct was unlawful.
Section 7.2 The Corporation shall
indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed

was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another Corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against
expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of
such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the Corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to
which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in
which such action or suit was properly brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability,
but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such
expenses which such court having proper jurisdiction shall deem proper.
Section 7.3
To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in
defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 1 or 2 of this Article, or in defense of any claim, issue or

her in connection therewith.
Section 7.4
Any indemnification under Sections 7.1 or 7.2 of this Article (unless ordered by a court having proper jurisdiction) shall be
made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer,
employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such section.
Such determination shall be made:
(a) By the Board of Directors by a majority
vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding,
or

even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion,

attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action,
suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon

determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Section. Such expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as
the Board of Directors deems appropriate.

the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Article.
Section 7.8 For purposes of this Article,
references to "the Corporation" shall include, in addition to the resulting Corporation, any constituent
Corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate
existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so
that any person who is or was a director, officer employee or agent of such constituent Corporation, or is or was serving at
the request of such constituent Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another Corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this Article with respect to the resulting
