Item 1. Description of The Company’s Securities to be Registered

The securities to be registered hereby are the shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Boston Carriers, Inc. (the “Registrant”). The description of the common stock to be registered hereunder is contained in the sections entitled “Authorized Capitalization” and “Dividend Payments” of the Registrant’s annual report on Form 20-F, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 20, 2018, which is incorporated by reference herein (the “Annual Report”).

Several provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws could make it difficult for our shareholders to change the composition of our board of directors in any year, preventing them from changing the composition of our management. In addition, the same provisions may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that shareholders may consider favorable.

These provisions:

• provide for a classified board of directors with staggered, three- year terms;

• prohibit cumulative voting in the election of directors;

• authorize the removal of directors only for cause and only upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our outstanding Common Stock entitled to vote for the directors;

• limit the persons who may call special meetings of shareholders;

• establish advance notice requirements for nominations for election to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by shareholders at shareholder meetings; and

• restrict business combinations with interested shareholders.

In addition, on August 22, 2016, we entered into an executive employment agreement with Antonios Bertsos, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and member of Board of Directors. Upon the occurrence of a change of control as defined in the executive employment agreement with Mr. Bertsos, we shall pay to Mr. Bertsos a lump sum cash amount equal to twenty times the sum of his then-current base salary and pro rata portion of any annual bonus, if any, in U.S. dollars, within 30 days following the effectiveness of the termination, as further described in the Annual Report.
