Effective September 27, 2019, Beyond Commerce, Inc. (the “Company”) amended its Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the “Articles”), by filing a certificate of amendment with the Secretary of State of Nevada, to effect a reduction in the number of shares authorized and designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred”), following the cancellation by a stockholder of 100 shares of Series A Preferred, such that the Company’s 250,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock include 249,999,900 shares of Series A Preferred and include 100 shares of undesignated preferred stock for which the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) is authorized to determine the number of series into which such undesignated shares may be divided, the number of shares within each series, and the designations, rights and preferences associated with such shares.
Effective October 1, 2019, the Company further amended the Articles by filing a certificate of amendment with the Secretary of State of Nevada, to effect the authorization and designation of 51 shares of Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred”), a new class of stock, having the designations, rights and preference set forth such amendment, all as approved and authorized by the Board,. As reflected in such amendment, the Company’s 250,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock are comprised of 249,999,900 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, 51 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and to include 49 shares of undesignated preferred stock for which the Board is authorized to determine the number of series into which such undesignated shares may be divided, the number of shares within each series, and the designations, rights and preferences associated with such shares.
Among other provisions, each one (1) share of the Series B Preferred shall have voting rights equal to (x) 0.019607 multiplied by the total number of votes of issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Company eligible to vote at the time of the respective vote (the “Numerator”), divided by (y) 0.49, minus (z) the Numerator. For purposes of illustration only, if the total number of votes of issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Company eligible to vote at the time of the respective vote is 5,000,000, the voting rights of one share of the Series B Preferred shall be equal to 102,036 (((0.019607 x 5,000,000) / 0.49) – (0.019607 x 5,000,000) = 102,036).
The Series B Preferred has no dividend rights and no redemption rights and was created primarily to be able to obtain a quorum and conduct business at shareholder meetings. All shares of the Series B Preferred shall rank (i) senior to the Company’s common stock and any other class or series of capital stock of the Company hereafter created, (ii) pari passu with any class or series of capital stock of the Company hereafter created and specifically ranking, by its terms, on par with the Series B Preferred and (iii) junior to any class or series of preferred stock of the Company hereafter created specifically ranking, by its terms, senior to the Series B Preferred, in each case as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary.
On October 2, 2019, the Board issued 20 shares of Series B Preferred to Geordan G. Pursglove, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Director.
