PROPOSAL NO. 1

 

AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION

INCREASE IN AUTHORIZED SHARES

 

Our Board and the holders of a majority of our outstanding capital stock entitled to vote on the Proposal have approved via a written consent, executed on May 17, 2021, Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Amended Articles”) to increase the number of authorized shares of our common stock from five hundred million (500,000,000) shares to six billion (6,000,000,000) shares.

 

A copy of the form of anticipated the Amended Articles is attached hereto as Exhibit A and will not be filed until twenty (20) days from the mailing of our definitive information statement.

 

Background

 

On February 16, 2021, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Sovryn Holdings, Inc. (“Sovryn”) and the holders (the “Sovryn Shareholders”) of Sovryn’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Sovryn Common Shares”), pursuant to which the Shareholders exchanged 100% of the outstanding Sovryn Common Shares for certain consideration, which included 1,000 shares of our series E convertible preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series E Preferred Stock”). The 1,000 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 56.38% of our capital stock on a fully diluted basis on the date of conversion (approximately 2,305,000,000 shares of Common Stock as of the Closing Date), and is entitled to vote on an as converted basis until conversion.

 

-7-
 

 

Immediately prior to the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, we entered into Exchange Agreements (the “Convertible Note Exchange Agreements”) with the holders of our convertible notes with an outstanding principal amount of $764,000 (the “Convertible Notes”). Pursuant to Convertible Note Exchange Agreements, the holders of the Convertible Notes were issued, in exchange for their Convertible Notes, a total of 230,000 shares of our newly-designated Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. Our Series D Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a ratio of 1,000 shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock held. Our Series D Preferred Stock does not have voting rights.

 

On February 17, 2021, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with funds affiliated with Arena Investors LP (the “Investors”) pursuant to which we pursuant to which we issued convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $16.5 million for an aggregate purchase price of $15 million (collectively, the “Notes”). In connection with the issuance of the Notes, we issued to the Investors warrants to purchase an aggregate of 192,073,017 shares of common stock (collectively, the “Warrants”) and 1,000 shares of series F convertible preferred stock (the “Series F Preferred Stock”).

 

The Notes are convertible at any time, at the holder’s option, into shares of our common stock equal to the lesser of: (i) the amount determined by dividing (A) $50,000,000, by (B) the total number of shares of preferred stock, Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents outstanding on such Conversion Date (assuming full conversion or exercise of all then issued and outstanding securities of the Company that are exercisable for or convertible into such equity securities of the Company) and (ii) $1.00, subject to adjustment herein (the “Conversion Price”), subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations (with a maximum ownership limit of 9.99%). The conversion price is also subject to adjustment due to certain events, including stock dividends, stock splits and in connection with the issuance by the Company of common stock or common stock equivalents at an effective price per share lower than the conversion price then in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Conversion Price in effect shall be equal to 75% of the average VWAP of the Common Stock for the five (5) Trading Days on the Trading Market immediately preceding the date of conversion (the Alternative Conversion Price”); provided, however, that the Alternate Conversion Price may not exceed $0.015 per share, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Notes. The conversion price is also subject to adjustment due to certain events, including stock dividends, stock splits and in connection with the issuance by the Company of common stock or common stock equivalents at an effective price per share lower than the conversion price then in effect. The Notes may not be redeemed by the Company.

 

The Series F Preferred Stock have no voting rights and shall convert into 4.9% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a fully diluted basis upon shareholder approval.

 

The number of shares of our common stock to be issued upon conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock, Convertible Notes and Warrants, together with the shares currently outstanding, exceeds the number of shares currently authorized under the Articles of Incorporation, as amended, of the Company (the “Articles of Incorporation”). Accordingly, we will file the Amended Articles to increase the authorized number of shares of our common stock from 500,000,000 shares to 6,000,000,000 shares. This action was approved on May 17, 2021 by the Board of Directors of the Company and by the holders of more than a majority of our outstanding voting capital stock, by written consent in lieu of a special meeting in accordance with our Articles of Incorporation and the NRS.

 

Current Plans, Proposals or Arrangements to Issue Shares of Common Stock

 

As of the Record Date, the Company had:

 

230,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, which are convertible into and aggregate of 230,000,000 shares of common stock;
1,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock, which are convertible into and aggregate of 2,305,000,000 shares of common stock;

 

-8-
 

 

$16.5 million in outstanding Notes, which are convertible into and aggregate of 971,889,468 shares of common stock;
1,000 shares of Series F Preferred Stock, which are convertible into and aggregate of 192,073,017 shares of common stock; and
Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 192,073,017 shares of Common Stock.

 

Following approval of the matters to be acted upon, all shares of Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock and Series F Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into shares of common stock of the Company. In addition, the Notes shall be convertible into shares of our common stock, and the Warrants shall be exercisable for shares of our common stock, subject to contractual restrictions that limit the ability of the holders of the Notes and Warrants to convert the Notes and exercise the Warrants such that the number of shares of the Company common stock held by each of them and their affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 9.99% of the Company’s then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

 

Other than as set forth above, the Company has no current plans, proposals or arrangements, written or oral, to issue any of the additional authorized shares of common stock that would become available as a result of the Amended Articles.

 

In addition, following the effectiveness of the Amended Articles, the Company may explore additional financing opportunities or strategic transactions that would require the issuance of additional shares of common stock, but no such plans are currently in existence and the Company has not begun any negotiations with any party related thereto.

 

ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF INCREASING AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK

 

There are certain advantages and disadvantages of increasing the Company’s authorized common stock.

 

The advantages include:

 

  The ability to issue shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for the Company’s outstanding convertible promissory notes.
     
  The ability to raise capital by issuing capital stock under future financing transactions, if any.
     
  To have shares of common stock available to pursue business expansion opportunities, if any.

 

The disadvantages include:

 

  In the event that additional shares of common stock are issued, dilution to the existing shareholders, including a decrease in our net income per share in future periods. This could cause the market price of our stock to decline.
     
  The issuance of authorized but unissued stock could be used to deter a potential takeover of the Company that may otherwise be beneficial to shareholders by diluting the shares held by a potential suitor or issuing shares to a shareholder that will vote in accordance with the desires of the Company’s Board, at that time. A takeover may be beneficial to independent shareholders because, among other reasons, a potential suitor may offer such shareholders a premium for their shares of stock compared to the then-existing market price. The Company does not have any plans or proposals to adopt provisions or enter into agreements that may have material anti-takeover consequences.

 

AUTHORIZED SHARES

 

As of the Record Date, our authorized capitalization consisted of 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock, of which 23,472,565 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding, 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 23,472,565 are issued and outstanding. Of the Preferred Stock that is outstanding, 100,000 shares have been designated as Series A Preferred Stock, of which 0 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding, 100 shares has been designated as Series B Preferred Stock, of which 100 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding, 10,000 shares have been designated as Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, of which 0 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding, 230,000 shares has been designated as Series D Preferred Stock, of which 230,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding,1,000 shares have been designated as Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, of which 1,000 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding, 1,000 shares has been designated as Series F Preferred Stock, of which 1,000 shares of Series F Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding and 3,000 shares has been designated as Series G Preferred Stock, of which 0 shares of Series G Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding.

 

-9-
 

 

Additionally, as of the Record Date, the Company had: (i) $16.5 million in outstanding Notes, which are convertible into and aggregate of 971,889,468 shares of common stock, and (ii) Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 192,073,017 shares of Common Stock.

 

Following the increase in authorized shares as contemplated in the Amended Articles, 6,000,000,000 shares of common stock will be authorized, and 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock will be authorized. There will be no changes to the issued and outstanding shares common stock or preferred stock. If we issue additional shares, the ownership interest of holders of our capital stock will be diluted.

 

NO APPRAISAL RIGHTS

 

Under the NRS, our shareholders are not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to an increase of our authorized shares, and we will not independently provide shareholders with any such right.
