Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

 

On May 12, 2023, All for One Entertainment Corp. (the “Company”) filed a certificate of amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Utah in order to effectuate a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, par value $0.001 per share on a one (1) for two thousand, eight hundred fifty-four (2,854) basis (the “Reverse Stock Split”).

 

The Reverse Stock Split is expected to be effective with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and the State of Utah on or about June 12, 2023, and the Company’s common stock will trade with a “D” added, under the symbol “AFOMD”, for the 20 business days beginning June 12, 2023, to designate that it is trading on a post-reverse split basis. Trading will resume under the symbol “AFOM” after the 20 day period has expired. The par value and other terms of Company’s common stock were not affected by the Reverse Stock Split. The Company’s post-Reverse Stock Split common stock has a new CUSIP number, 01663M206. The Company’s transfer agent, Issuer Direct (Direct Transfer) is acting as exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split and will send instructions to shareholders regarding the exchange of certificates. Each certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Reverse Stock Split represented shares of Common Stock shall thereafter represent that number of shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Common Stock represented by the Old Certificate shall have been combined, subject to the treatment fractional shares as described above.

 

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every two thousand, eight hundred fifty-four (2,854) shares of the Company’s pre-reverse split common stock will be combined and reclassified into one share of the Company’s common stock. No fractional shares of common stock will be issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to a fractional share shall receive the next higher number of whole shares.

 

On May 12, 2023, the Company also filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Restated Articles”) with the State of Utah. The Restated Articles amend and restate the Articles of Incorporation previously filed with the State of Utah, as amended through the date thereof, in order to, among other things, reduce the number of shares of capital stock authorized for issuance to 100,000,000 (from 19 billion), and to designate 90,000,000 shares as common stock and 10,000,000 shares as preferred stock. The Restated Articles authorize the Board of Directors, from time to time, to issue any class of preferred stock in any series and provides the Board of Directors authority to establish and designate series, and to fix the number of shares included in each such series, and the variations in the relative rights, preferences and limitation as between series of preferred stock. In addition, the Restated Articles provide for the elimination of liability of directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director the fullest extent that the Utah Revised Business Corporations Act (“URBCA”) act allows, and for indemnification and advancement of expense for all persons whom the URBCA permits from and against any and all expenses, liabilities or other matters as provided under the act. The Restated Articles waive the applicability of Chapter 6 of the URBCA, the Control Share Acquisitions Act. The Restated Articles include a forum selection clause under which certain litigation involving the Company and its officers and directors shall be limited to the Business and Chancery Court of the State of Utah, and other courts located within the State of Utah.

 

On May 12, 2023, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of a new series of preferred stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, by filing a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations with the Secretary of State of the State of Utah. As described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 21, 2023, and filed April 27, 2023, the Series B Preferred is intended to be issued in connection with the previously announced closing of the acquisition of All Entertainment Media Group, Inc. (“AEMG”) under an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of April 20, 2023 by and between the Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and AEMG (the “Agreement”).

AEMG is a content creation and marketing company headquartered in New York. Comprising of three core divisions - PODs Entertainment Group, EMG Music Group, and Terry D Films. Notably, AEMG’s podcast division ranks among the top 3% of all podcasts globally according to Listen Notes, an independent podcast database. In August 2022, AEMG released its first feature film, 17 DAYS, which quickly became one of Tubi’s “Most Popular Movies.” Management believes that AEMG will be able to expand its audience and media coverage as a public company in determining to combine with AFOM and is poised for growth following the closing.

 

Under the terms of the Agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, Acquisition will acquire AEMG by merger of Acquisition with and into AEMG, with AEMG as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). At the Effective Time of the Merger. all of the issued and outstanding share capital of AEMG will be exchanged for an aggregate of Seven Million (7,000,000) shares of Company common stock, par value $0.001 per share, (the “Common Stock”), after giving effect to a 2,854:1 reverse split of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. In addition to the Reverse Stock Split the Agreement contains various additional conditions, which, unless waived, will be required to be satisfied prior to closing, including continued accuracy of representations and warranties of the parties, approval by the Company, no violations of law, no actions brought by any third party to enjoin the transactions, all legal and regulatory approvals will have been obtained, approval by the boards of directors of the Company, Acquisition and AEMG. As a further condition, exchange agreements with debt holders of the Company under which the holders will exchange all Company debt for Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Stock”) of the Company, unless a lesser percentage is accepted by the Company, and a minimum of $500,000 of investment or bridge financing shall be available upon terms and subject to conditions acceptable to the parties are also required prior to closing. Although there can be no assurance of approval by the principal holder of the Company’s convertible debt, such approval has been sought and is anticipated, provided the terms of the Merger are acceptable, the other closing conditions are satisfied, and the remaining debt holders agree to participate.

 

On May 12, 2023, the Company filed with the SEC a Preliminary Schedule 14C Information Statement which notifies stockholders under Rule 14c-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) the approval of stockholders effective following at least 20 calendar days after mailing of the Information Statement to stockholders, expected to be approximately June 12, 2023, following approval of the Reverse Stock Split therein by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and acceptance by the State of Utah. The Company expects to mail the Notice of Stockholder Action on or about May 22, 2023.

 

Preferred and Common Stock

 

As of May 8, 2023, the record date for the approval of Stockholders, there were issued and outstanding (i) 8,562,553,996 shares of Common Stock, and (ii) 51 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Pursuant to Section 16-10a-704 of the URBCA, at least a majority of the common voting equity of the Company, or at least 8,737,108,387 votes (out of 17,474,216,775 total votes comprised of 8,562,553,996 Common Stock votes and 8,911,662,778 of Series A Preferred Stock), are required to approve any matter by written consent. The Majority Stockholder, who holds in the aggregate 5,064,386 shares of Common Stock, and 51 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (approximately 51.01% of the voting equity of the Company), has voted in favor of the AEMG Approvals thereby satisfying the requirement under Section 16-10a-704 of the URBCA that at least a majority of the voting equity vote in favor of a corporate action by written consent.

 

In July 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company designated 51 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”). The Series A Preferred Stock has no rights to receive dividends. Each one (1) share of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have voting rights equal to (x) 0.019607 multiplied by the total issued and outstanding Common Stock eligible to vote at the time of the respective vote (“Numerator”) divided by (y) 0.49 minus (z) the Numerator. The Series A Preferred Stock does not convert into equity of the Company. The Series A Preferred Stock does not contain any redemption provision and shall have no liquidation preference.

Conditional Stock Split

 

In addition to the Reverse Stock Split described herein and required as a closing condition, the stockholder approval when effective include a conditional stock split (the “Conditional Split”) which may be effected solely by the Board of Directors any time on or prior to December 31, 2023. Upon determination by the Board of Directors a further amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation can effect a reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock by a ratio of not less than one-or wot and not more than one-for-ten with the exact ratio to be set at a whole number within this range as determined by our board of directors in its sole discretion. We believe that enabling our board of directors to set the ratio within the stated range will provide us with the flexibility to implement the Conditional Split in a manner designed to maximize the anticipated benefits for our stockholders for example, if the Company seeks to up-list and have its common stock trade on a national securities exchange such as the NASDAQ Capital Market, the board of directors could authorize a Conditional Stock Split in a ratio designed to achieve the minimum stock price required for such listing as required by the initial listing standards of such exchange, expected to be $4.00 per share. In determining a ratio, if any, our board of directors may consider, among other things, factors such as:

 

·

the initial listing requirements of various stock exchanges;

·

the historical trading price and trading volume of our Common Stock;

·

the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding;

·

the then-prevailing trading price and trading volume of our Common Stock and the anticipated impact of the Conditional Split on the trading market for our Common Stock;

·

the anticipated impact of a particular ratio on our ability to reduce administrative and transactional costs; and

·

prevailing general market and economic conditions.

 

Our board of directors reserves the right to elect to abandon the Conditional Split, including any or all proposed reverse stock split ratios, if it determines, in its sole discretion, that the Reverse Stock Split is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

 

Depending on the ratio for the Conditional Split determined by our board of directors, no less than two and no more than ten shares of existing Common Stock, as determined by our board of directors, will be combined into one share of Common Stock. Any fractional shares will be rounded up to the next whole number. The amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split, if any, will include only the reverse stock split ratio determined by our board of directors to be in the best interests of our stockholders and all of the other proposed amendments at different ratios will be abandoned.

Background and Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split; Potential Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split; Risk Factors Related to Conditional Split

 

The Reverse Stock Split and the Conditional Split was for the primary intent of increasing the market price of our Common Stock to enhance our ability to close on the AEMG acquisition and to meet the initial listing requirements of The NASDAQ Capital Market and to make our Common Stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other investors. The Company currently does not have any plans, arrangements or understandings, written or oral, to issue any of the authorized but unissued shares that would become available as a result of the Conditional Split. In addition to increasing the market price of our Common Stock, the Conditional Split would also reduce certain of our costs, as discussed below. Accordingly, for these and other reasons discussed below, we believe that effecting the Reverse Stock Split and the Conditional Split is in the Company’s and our stockholders’ best interests.

 

We believe that the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split, if effectuated, will enhance our ability to obtain an initial listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market. The NASDAQ Capital Market requires, among other items, an initial bid price of least $4.00 per share and following initial listing, maintenance of a continued price of at least $1.00 per share. Reducing the number of outstanding shares of our Common Stock should, absent other factors, increase the per share market price of our Common Stock, although we cannot provide any assurance that our minimum bid price would remain following the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split over the minimum bid price requirement of any such stock exchange.

 

Additionally, we believe that the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split will make our Common Stock more attractive to a broader range of institutional and other investors, as we have been advised that the current market price of our Common Stock may affect its acceptability to certain institutional investors, professional investors and other members of the investing public. Many brokerage houses and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. In addition, some of those policies and practices may function to make the processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers. Moreover, because brokers’ commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher-priced stocks, the current average price per share of common stock can result in individual stockholders paying transaction costs representing a higher percentage of their total share value than would be the case if the share price were substantially higher. We believe that the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split will make our Common Stock a more attractive and cost effective investment for many investors, which will enhance the liquidity of the holders of our Common Stock.

 

Reducing the number of outstanding shares of our Common Stock through the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split is intended, absent other factors, to increase the per share market price of our Common Stock. However, other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the market perception of our business may adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Reverse Stock Split or Conditional Split, if completed, will result in the intended benefits described above, that the market price of our Common Stock will increase following the effectiveness of such action or that the market price of our Common Stock will not decrease in the future. Additionally, we cannot assure you that the market price per share of our Common Stock after a Reverse Stock Split or Conditional Split will increase in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding before the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split. Accordingly, the total market capitalization of our Common Stock after the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split may be lower than the total market capitalization before the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split.

Procedure for Implementing the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split

 

The Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split, if approved by our board of directors, would become effective upon the filing (the “Effective Time”) of a certificate of amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Utah. The exact timing of the filing of the certificate of amendment that will effect the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split will be determined by our board of directors based on its evaluation as to when such action will be the most advantageous to the Company and our stockholders, and as required by applicable law which requires advance notice be made to the markets. In addition, our board of directors reserves the right, notwithstanding stockholder approval and without further action by the stockholders, to elect not to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split if, at any time prior to filing the amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, our board of directors, in its sole discretion, determines that it is no longer in our best interest and the best interests of our stockholders to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split or Conditional Split. If a certificate of amendment effecting the Conditional Split has not been filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Utah by the close of business on December 31, 2023, our board of directors will abandon the Conditional Split.

 

Effect of the Conditional Split on Holders of Outstanding Common Stock

 

Depending on the ratio for the Conditional Stock Split determined by our board of directors, a minimum of two and a maximum of ten shares of existing Common Stock will be combined into one new share of Common Stock. The table below shows, as of May 8, 2023, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock (excluding Treasury shares) that would result from the listed hypothetical reverse stock split ratios (without giving effect to the treatment of fractional shares). The foregoing table assumes the Reverse Stock Split has been effectuated and the AEMG acquisition has resulted in the issuance of seven million shares of our Common Stock to the stockholders of AEMG:

* Assumes effectiveness of Reverse Stock Split in the amount of 2,854:1 on 8,562,553,996 shares outstanding as of May 8, 2023.

 

The actual number of shares issued after giving effect to the Conditional Split, if implemented, will depend on the reverse stock split ratio that is ultimately determined by our board of directors.

 

The Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split will affect all holders of our Common Stock uniformly and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except that as described below in “— Fractional Shares,” record holders of Common Stock otherwise entitled to a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split and the Conditional Split will be rounded up to the next whole number. In addition, the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split will not affect any stockholder’s proportionate voting power (subject to the treatment of fractional shares).

 

The Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split may result in some stockholders owning “odd lots” of less than 100 shares of Common Stock. Odd lot shares may be more difficult to sell, and brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally somewhat higher than the costs of transactions in “round lots” of even multiples of 100 shares. The board of directors reserves the right to grant odd lot holders at no cost additional shares in order to round up odd lots that result from the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split, provided such action is authorized. The purpose for such action is to satisfy the listing conditions of certain national stock exchanges that required a minimum number of round lot holders.

After the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split our Common Stock will have new Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures (CUSIP) numbers, which is a number used to identify our equity securities, and stock certificates with the older CUSIP numbers will need to be exchanged for stock certificates with the new CUSIP numbers by following the procedures described below. After the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split we will continue to be subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our Common Stock will continue to be listed on the Over the Counter OTCPinkMarket under the symbol “AFOM”, subject to any decision of our Board of Directors to choose another symbol following the acquisition of AEMG or to list our securities on another stock exchange.

 

Beneficial Holders of Common Stock (i.e. stockholders who hold in street name)

 

Upon the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split, we intend to treat shares held by stockholders through a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee in the same manner as registered stockholders whose shares are registered in their names. Banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees will be instructed to effect the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split for their beneficial holders holding our Common Stock in street name. However, these banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees may have different procedures than registered stockholders for processing the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split. Stockholders who hold shares of our Common Stock with a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee and who have any questions in this regard are encouraged to contact their banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees.

 

Registered “Book-Entry” Holders of Common Stock (i.e. stockholders that are registered on the transfer agent’s books and records but do not hold stock certificates)

 

Certain of our registered holders of Common Stock may hold some or all of their shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent. These stockholders do not have stock certificates evidencing their ownership of the Common Stock. They are, however, provided with a statement reflecting the number of shares registered in their accounts.

 

Stockholders who hold shares electronically in book-entry form with the transfer agent will not need to take action (the exchange will be automatic) to receive whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split/Conditional Split Common Stock, subject to adjustment for treatment of fractional shares.

 

Holders of Certificated Shares of Common Stock

 

Stockholders holding shares of our Common Stock in certificated form will be sent a transmittal letter by our transfer agent after the Effective Time. The letter of transmittal will contain instructions on how a stockholder should surrender his, her or its certificate(s) representing shares of our Common Stock (the “Old Certificates”) to the transfer agent in exchange for certificates representing the appropriate number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock (the “New Certificates”). No New Certificates will be issued to a stockholder until such stockholder has surrendered all Old Certificates, together with a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, to the transfer agent. No stockholder will be required to pay a transfer or other fee to exchange his, her or its Old Certificates. Stockholders will then receive a New Certificate(s) representing the number of whole shares of Common Stock that they are entitled as a result of the Reverse Stock Split/Conditional Split, subject to the treatment of fractional shares described below. Until surrendered, we will deem outstanding Old Certificates held by stockholders to be cancelled and only to represent the number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split/post-Conditional Split Common Stock to which these stockholders are entitled, subject to the treatment of fractional shares. Any Old Certificates submitted for exchange, whether because of a sale, transfer or other disposition of stock, will automatically be exchanged for New Certificates. If an Old Certificate has a restrictive legend on the back of the Old Certificate(s), the New Certificate will be issued with the same restrictive legends that are on the back of the Old Certificate(s).

Fractional Shares

 

We do not currently intend to issue fractional shares in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Therefore, we will not issue certificates representing fractional shares. In lieu of issuing fractions of shares, we will round up to the next whole number.

 

Effect of the Reverse Stock Split on Employee Plans, Options, Restricted Stock Awards and Units, Warrants, and Convertible or Exchangeable Securities

 

Based upon the reverse stock split ratio determined by the board of directors, proportionate adjustments are generally required to be made to the per share exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities entitling the holders to purchase, exchange for, or convert into, shares of Common Stock. This would result in approximately the same aggregate price being required to be paid under such options, warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities upon exercise, and approximately the same value of shares of Common Stock being delivered upon such exercise, exchange or conversion, immediately following the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split as was the case immediately preceding the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split. The number of shares deliverable upon settlement or vesting of restricted stock awards will be similarly adjusted, subject to our treatment of fractional shares. The number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to these securities will be proportionately based upon the reverse stock split ratio determined by the board of directors, subject to our treatment of fractional shares.

 

Accounting Matters

 

The proposed amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation will not affect the par value of our Common Stock per share, which will remain $0.001 par value per share. As a result, as of the effective time, the stated capital attributable to Common Stock and the additional paid-in capital account on our balance sheet will not change due to the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split. Reported per share net income or loss will be higher because there will be fewer shares of Common Stock outstanding.

 

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split

 

The following summary describes certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split to holders of our Common Stock

 

Unless otherwise specifically indicated herein, this summary addresses the tax consequences only to a beneficial owner of our Common Stock that is a citizen or individual resident of the United States, a corporation organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia or otherwise subject to U.S. federal income taxation on a net income basis in respect of our Common Stock (a “U.S. holder”). A trust may also be a U.S. holder if (1) a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over administration of such trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) it has a valid election in place to be treated as a U.S. person. An estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source may also be a U.S. holder. This summary does not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to any particular investor, including tax considerations that arise from rules of general application to all taxpayers or to certain classes of taxpayers or that are generally assumed to be known by investors. This summary also does not address the tax consequences to (i) persons that may be subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax law, such as banks, insurance companies, thrift institutions, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, tax-exempt organizations, U.S. expatriates, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, traders in securities that elect to mark to market and dealers in securities or currencies, (ii) persons that hold our Common Stock as part of a position in a “straddle” or as part of a “hedging,” “conversion” or other integrated investment transaction for federal income tax purposes, or (iii) persons that do not hold our Common Stock as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment).

 

If a partnership (or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our Common Stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships that hold our Common Stock, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split.

This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, U.S. Treasury regulations, administrative rulings and judicial authority, all as in effect as of the date of this information statement. Subsequent developments in U.S. federal income tax law, including changes in law or differing interpretations, which may be applied retroactively, could have a material effect on the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split and/or Conditional Split.

 

PLEASE CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, AND FOREIGN INCOME AND OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT AND CONDITINOAL SPLIT IN YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER TAXING JURISDICTION.

 

U.S. Holders

 

The Reverse Stock Split and Conditional Split should be treated as a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, a stockholder generally will not recognize gain or loss on the Reverse Stock Split or Conditional Split, except to the extent of cash, if any, received in lieu of a fractional share interest in the post-Reverse Stock Split Conditional Split shares. The aggregate tax basis of the post-split shares received will be equal to the aggregate tax basis of the pre-split shares exchanged therefore (excluding any portion of the holder’s basis allocated to fractional shares), and the holding period of the post-split shares received will include the holding period of the pre-split shares exchanged. A holder of the pre-split shares who receives cash will generally recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the portion of the tax basis of the pre-split shares allocated to the fractional share interest and the cash received. Such gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss and will be short term if the pre-split shares were held for one year or less and long term if held more than one year. No gain or loss will be recognized by us as a result of the Reverse Stock Split or Conditional Split.

 

No Appraisal Rights

 

Under the URBCA and our charter documents, holders of our common stock will not be entitled to statutory rights of appraisal, commonly referred to as dissenters’ rights or appraisal rights (i.e., the right to seek a judicial determination of the “fair value” of their shares and to compel the purchase of their shares for cash in that amount) with respect to the AEMG Approvals.

 

Amendment to Our Articles of Incorporation

 

On May 12, 2023 we filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Restated Articles”) with the State of Utah. The Company anticipates the Restated Articles will be approved by the State of Utah with effect from the date of the Reverse Stock Split. The Restated Articles amend and restate the Articles of Incorporation previously filed with the State of Utah, as amended through the date thereof, in order to, among other things, reduce the number of shares of capital stock authorized for issuance to 100,000,000 (from 19 billion), and to designate 90,000,000 shares as common stock and 10,000,000 shares as preferred stock. The Restated Articles authorize the Board of Directors, from time to time, to issue any class of preferred stock in any series and provides the Board of Directors authority to establish and designate series, and to fix the number of shares included in each such series, and the variations in the relative rights, preferences and limitation as between series of preferred stock. In addition, the Restated Articles provide for the elimination of liability of directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director the fullest extent that the URBCA allows, and for indemnification and advancement of expense for all persons whom the URBCA permits from and against any and all expenses, liabilities or other matters as provided under the act. The Restated Articles waive the applicability of Chapter 6 of the URBCA, the Control Share Acquisitions Act. The Restated Articles include a forum selection clause under which certain litigation involving the Company and its officers and directors shall be limited to the Business and Chancery Court of the State of Utah, and other courts located within the State of Utah.
