Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation
or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On February 24, 2012, American Oriental
Bioengineering, Inc. (the “Company”) effected a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”) of the outstanding
shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) at a ratio of one (1) share for every two (2) shares outstanding,
so that every two (2) outstanding shares of Common Stock before the Reverse Split represents one (1) share of Common Stock after
the Reverse Split. Pursuant to the Company's Certificate of Change filed pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes §78.209 (the
“Certificate of Change”) with the Nevada Secretary of State, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that the
Company is authorized to issue was reduced from 150,000,000 to 75,000,000. The Reverse Split was effected without obtaining shareholder
approval pursuant to Nevada law. The Reverse Split is part of the Company’s strategy to maintain the listing of its shares
on the New York Stock Exchange.
Immediately prior to the Reverse Split,
the Company had approximately 78,503,381 shares of Common Stock outstanding. After the Reverse Split, the Company has approximately
39,251,867 shares outstanding. Each shareholder's percentage ownership interest in the Company and proportional voting power remains
unchanged after the Reverse Split except for minor changes and adjustments resulting from rounding of fractional interests. The
rights and privileges of the holders of Common Stock are substantially unaffected by the Reverse Split.
A copy of the Certificate of Change is
attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1.
