ACTION I

 

AMENDMENT TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

TO INCREASE OUR AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK FROM 1,000,000,000 TO 5,000,000,000

  

On October 24, 2017, our Board of Directors and the holders of a majority of the voting power of our stockholders approved an amendment to our Articles to increase our authorized shares of Common Stock from 1,000,000,000 to 5,000,000,000. The increase in our authorized shares of Common Stock will become effective upon the filing of the amendment to our Articles with the Secretary of State. We will file the amendment to our Articles to effect the increase in our authorized shares of Common Stock (the “ Authorization Amendment ”) approximately (but not less than) 20 days after the definitive information statement is mailed to stockholders.

 

The form of articles of amendment to be filed with the Secretary of State is set forth as Appendix A (subject to any changes required by applicable law) to this information statement.

 

Outstanding Shares and Purpose of the Authorization Amendment

 

Our articles of incorporation currently authorize us to issue a maximum of  1,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of the date hereof, we had 515,254,099 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.

 

The Board of Directors believes that the increase in our authorized Common Stock will provide the Company greater flexibility with respect to the Company’s capital structure for purposes of including additional equity financings, stock-based acquisitions and to issue shares upon conversion of existing, outstanding convertible promissory notes of the Company.

 

Effects of the Authorization Amendment

 

The additional shares of Common Stock will have the same rights as the presently authorized shares, including the right to cast one vote per share of Common Stock. Although the authorization of additional shares will not, in itself, have any effect on the rights of any holder of our Common Stock, the future issuance of additional shares of Common Stock (other than by way of a stock split or dividend) would have the effect of diluting the voting rights and could have the effect of diluting earnings per share and book value per share of existing stockholders.

 

Other than the foregoing issuance of shares upon conversion of existing, outstanding convertible promissory notes of the Company, the Board of Directors has no plans to issue the additional shares of Common Stock authorized by the Authorization Amendment. However, it is possible that some of these additional shares could be used in the future for various other purposes without further stockholder approval, except as such approval may be required in particular cases by our charter documents, applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or other quotation system on which our securities may then be listed. These purposes may include: raising capital, providing equity incentives to employees, officers or directors, establishing strategic relationships with other companies, and expanding the Company’s business or product lines through the acquisition of other businesses or products.

 

We could also use the additional shares of Common Stock that will become available pursuant to the Authorization Amendment to oppose a hostile takeover attempt or to delay or prevent changes in control or management of the Company. Although the board’s approval of the Amendment was not prompted by the threat of any hostile takeover attempt (nor is the board currently aware of any such attempts directed at the Company), nevertheless, stockholders should be aware that the Authorization Amendment could facilitate future efforts by us to deter or prevent changes in control of the Company, including transactions in which stockholders of the Company might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current market prices.
