AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
General
Our Articles of Incorporation currently
authorize 5,000,000,000 shares of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock.
On December 17,2018,
two stockholders holding 25,003,562 shares of common stock, one share of Series A Preferred Stock, 729,999 shares of Series B Preferred
Stock, 2 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, and 250,000,000 shares of Series I Preferred Stock, or approximately 50.1% of the
voting power of the company, consented in writing to approve Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation. The Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation increase our authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to 7,500,000,000 shares from
5,000,000,000 shares, increase our authorized shares of blank check preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, to 1,000,000,000
shares from 100,000,000 shares and consolidate all of the previous amendments to our Articles of Incorporation in one document
for ease of reference. The “Blank Check” Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series by our
Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors is expressly authorized to provide, by resolution(s) duly adopted by it prior
to issuance, for the creation of each such series and to fix the designation and the powers, preferences, rights, qualifications,
limitations and restrictions relating to the shares of each such series of Blank Check Preferred Stock.
Reasons for
the Increase in Authorized Shares of Common Stock
Our Articles of
Incorporation presently authorize 5,000,000,000 shares of common stock. As of November 16, 2018, there were 515,434,930 shares
of common stock outstanding. In order to provide funding for the Company’s operations and future acquisitions, it will be
necessary to issue additional shares of common stock, or promissory notes that are convertible into common stock. Most lenders
that fund convertible notes require that the borrower direct its stock transfer agent to establish a reserve of authorized shares
to be available for conversion of the lender’s convertible notes. If the market price of the borrower’s convertible
stock declines, the reserve may be required to be increased. In the event that there are insufficient authorized shares to honor
a conversion notice, there may be contractual penalties payable by the borrower. The increase in the Company’s authorized
shares of common stock to 7,500,000,000 shares from 5,000,000,000 shares is intended to provide adequate authorized shares to cover
the Company’s funding needs for at least the next 12 months.
Principal Effects
of the Increase in Authorized Shares of Common Stock
While the authorization
of additional shares of common stock is intended to increase our financial flexibility, it could also lead to dilution of the existing
stockholders in the event that additional shares are sold for less than the current market price (or in the case of convertible
debt, if the conversion price is less than our present market price). This is likely in the case of convertible debt, as convertible
lenders typically require that they be permitted to convert at a discount from the market price at the time of conversion.
Reasons for
the Increase in Authorized Shares of “Blank Check” Preferred Stock
Our Articles of
Incorporation presently authorize 100,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock. We believe that for us to successfully execute
our business strategy we will need to raise investment capital and it may be preferable or necessary to issue preferred stock to
investors. Preferred stock usually grants the holders certain preferential rights in voting, dividends, liquidation
or other rights in preference over a company’s common stock. Accordingly, in order to grant us the flexibility to issue our
equity securities in the manner best suited for our Company, or as may be required by the capital markets, the Amendment will increase
to 1,000,000,000 shares the authorized shares of “blank check” Preferred Stock for us to issue.
The term “blank
check” refers to preferred stock, the creation and issuance of which is authorized in advance by our Stockholders and the
terms, rights and features of which are determined by our Board of Directors upon issuance. The authorization of such
“blank check” Preferred Stock permits our Board of Directors to authorize and issue Preferred Stock from time to time
in one or more series without seeking further action or vote of our Stockholders.
Principal Effects
of the Creation of “Blank Check” Preferred Stock
Subject to the
provisions of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and the limitations prescribed by law, our Board of Directors
is expressly authorized, at its discretion, to adopt resolutions to issue shares, to fix the number of shares and to change the
number of shares constituting any series and to provide for or change the voting powers, designations, preferences and relative,
participating, optional or other special rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including dividend rights
(including whether the dividends are cumulative), dividend rates, terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption
prices, conversion rights and liquidation preferences of the shares constituting any series of the Preferred Stock, in each case
without any further action or vote by our stockholders. Our Board of Directors would be required to make
any determination to issue shares of Preferred Stock based on its judgment as to what is in our best interests and the best interests
of our stockholders. The Board of Directors has the flexibility, without further stockholder action, to issue Preferred
Stock on such terms and conditions as our Board of Directors deems to be in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders.
The authorization
of the additional “blank check” Preferred Stock will provide us with increased financial flexibility in meeting future
capital requirements. It will allow Preferred Stock to be available for issuance from time to time and with such features
as determined by our Board of Directors for any proper corporate purpose. It is anticipated that such purposes may include,
without limitation, exchanging Preferred Stock for Common Stock, the issuance for cash as a means of obtaining capital for our
use, or issuance as part or all of the consideration required to be paid by us for acquisitions of other businesses or assets.
The issuance
by us of Preferred Stock could dilute both the equity interests and the earnings per share of existing holders of our Common
Stock. Such dilution may be substantial, depending upon the amount of shares issued. The newly authorized shares
of Preferred Stock could also have voting rights superior to our Common Stock, and therefore would have a dilutive effect on
the voting power of our existing Stockholders.
Any issuance of
Preferred Stock with voting rights could, under certain circumstances, have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control
of our Company by increasing the number of outstanding shares entitled to vote and by increasing the number of votes required to
approve a change in control of our Company. Shares of voting or convertible Preferred Stock could be issued, or rights
to purchase such shares could be issued, to render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our Company by
means of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or otherwise. The ability of our Board of Directors to issue such shares
of Preferred Stock, with the rights and preferences it deems advisable, could discourage an attempt by a party to acquire control
of our Company by tender offer or other means. Such issuances could therefore deprive our stockholders of benefits that
could result from such an attempt, such as the realization of a premium over the market price that such an attempt could cause.
Moreover, the issuance of such shares of Preferred Stock to persons friendly to our Board of Directors could make it more difficult
to remove incumbent managers and directors from office even if such change were to be favorable to stockholders generally.
There are currently
no plans, arrangements, commitments or understandings for the issuance of additional shares of Preferred Stock.
Anti-Takeover
Effects
The Amendment
will provide us with 900,000,000 additional shares of Preferred Stock which would permit us to issue additional shares of capital
stock that could dilute the ownership of the holders of our Common Stock by one or more persons seeking to effect a change
in the composition of our Board of Directors or contemplating a tender offer or other transaction for the combination of the Company
with another company. The creation of the additional authorized Preferred Stock is not being undertaken in response to any
effort of which our Board of Directors is aware to enable anyone to accumulate shares of our Common Stock or gain control of the
Company. The purpose of the creation of the Preferred Stock is to grant us the flexibility to issue our equity
securities in the manner best suited for our Company, or as may be required by the capital markets. However, we presently
have no plans, proposals, or arrangements to issue any of the newly authorized shares of Preferred Stock for any purpose whatsoever,
including future acquisitions and/or financings.
Other than the
creation of the additional “blank check” Preferred Stock, our Board of Directors does not currently contemplate the
adoption of any other amendments to our Articles of Incorporation that could be construed to affect the ability of third parties
to take over or change the control of the Company. While it is possible that management could use the additional authorized
shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock to resist or frustrate a third-party transaction that is favored by a majority of the
independent stockholders, we have no intent, plans or proposals to use the newly created Preferred Stock as an anti-takeover mechanism
or to adopt other provisions or enter into other arrangements that may have anti-takeover consequences.
While the creation
of the additional “blank check” Preferred Stock may have anti-takeover ramifications, our Board of Directors believes
that the financial flexibility offered by such corporate actions will outweigh the disadvantages. To the extent that
these corporate actions may have anti-takeover effects, third parties seeking to acquire us may be encouraged to negotiate directly
with our Board of Directors, enabling us to consider the proposed transaction in a manner that best serves the stockholders’
interests.
While the increase
in authorized shares of common stock and blank check preferred stock could be effectuated by an Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation,
the Board of Directors has decided to recommend that Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation be adopted, which will consolidate
all of the amendments that have been adopted over the years into one document. This is intended to make our Articles of Incorporation
a more readable document.
Effective Date
Under Rule 14c-2,
promulgated pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Amendment shall be effective twenty (20) days after
this Information Statement is mailed to stockholders of the Company. We anticipate the effective date to be on or about
January 13, 2019.
