Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
On March 7, 2014, the Company filed an Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada (the “Amendment”) pursuant to which the Company effected a 1-for-100 reverse stock split of its common stock and a change in its name from “Stratus Media Group, Inc.” to “RestorGenex Corporation.” The Amendment became effective as of March 7, 2014.
The Company’s stockholders had approved a proposal authorizing the Company’s Board of Directors, in its discretion, to implement a reverse stock split at a ratio of not less than 1-for-50 and not more than 1-for-100. Subsequently, the Board of Directors approved the reverse stock split at a ratio of 1-for-100.
At the effective time of the reverse stock split, every 100 shares of the Company’s pre-split common stock were automatically combined into one share of common stock. No fractional shares are being issued as a result of the reverse stock split. Instead, any fractional share resulting from the reverse stock split will be rounded up to the nearest whole share.
As a result of the reverse stock split, any options, warrants and rights outstanding as of the effective time that are subject to the reverse stock split will be adjusted consistent with the terms of those options, warrants and rights.
The reverse stock split does not alter the par value of the common stock or modify any voting rights or other terms of the commons stock.
The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein.
A news release issued by the Company on March 7, 2014 is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein.
