This information statement is being furnished in connection with the action by written consent of stockholders taken without a meeting described in this information statement. We are mailing this information statement to our stockholders of record on August 31, 2023.

 

What action was taken by written consent?

 

We obtained stockholder consent for the approval of an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to increase our authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), from 1,000,000,000 to 3,000,000,000.

 

How many shares of voting stock were outstanding on August 31, 2023?

 

On August 31, 2023, the date we received the consent of the holders of a majority of the voting power of our stockholders, there were 406,815,293 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, 25,845 shares of our Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding, and 516 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding.

 

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock has voting rights equal to:

 

[twenty times the sum of: {all shares of Common stock issued and outstanding at the time of voting + all shares of Series A Preferred Stock and any newly designated preferred stock issued and outstanding at the time of voting}]

 

Divided by:

 

[the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding at the time of voting]

 

The shares of Series A Preferred Stock vote together with the Common Stock as a single class with respect to any and all matters presented to the holders of Common Stock for their action.

 

Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has voting rights equal to the following:

 

The Series B Preferred Stock will vote together with the Common Stock on an as converted basis subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitations (not in excess of 4.99% conversion limitation). However, as long as any shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock directly and/or indirectly (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series B Preferred Stock or alter or amend this Certificate of Designation, (b) authorize or create any class of stock ranking as to redemption or distribution of assets upon a liquidation senior to, or otherwise pari passu with, the Series B Preferred Stock or, authorize or create any class of stock ranking as to dividends senior to, or otherwise pari passu with, the Series B Preferred Stock, (c) amend its Articles of Incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the holders, (d) increase the number of authorized shares of Series B Preferred Stock, or (e) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing.

 

What vote was obtained to approve the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation described in this Information Statement?

 

We obtained the approval of the holders of 5,821,343 shares of Common Stock and 25,845 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (representing 8,136,833,079 votes), or approximately 95.31% of the voting power of our stockholders.

AMENDMENT TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

TO INCREASE AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK FROM 1,000,000,000 TO 3,000,000,000

 

Our Board of Directors and the holders of a majority of the voting power of our stockholders have approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to increase our authorized shares of Common Stock from 1,000,000,000 to 3,000,000,000. The increase in our authorized shares of Common Stock will become effective upon the filing of the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. We will file the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to effect the increase in our authorized shares of Common Stock (the “Amendment”) approximately (but not less than) 20 days after the definitive information statement is mailed to stockholders.

 

The form of the Certificate of Amendment to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada is set forth as Appendix A to this Information Statement.

 

Outstanding Shares and Purpose of the Amendment

 

Our Articles of Incorporation currently authorize us to issue a maximum of 1,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of April 16, 2024, we had 555,015,293 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding; however, we have entered into a series of financing transactions which require us to maintain a reserve of shares for conversions of outstanding debt and exercise of warrants which are at multiples of the number of shares from time to time issuable thereunder. In addition, in order to obtain future financings, we may be required to have additional authorized and unissued shares reserved for issuance. A summary of our outstanding financing transactions which, pursuant to their various terms, require the increase of authorized shares of Common Stock is as follows:

 

Stock Incentive Plans

 

2017 Stock Incentive Plan

 

Under our 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”), there are 4,500,000 shares of common stock authorized for non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock grants, and stock appreciation rights, which are subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, and other situations. As of December 31, 2023, there were 3,547,788 shares of Common Stock issued with 952,212 remaining for awards under the 2017 Plan.

 

2019 Stock Incentive Plan

 

Under our 2019 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”), there are 5,000,000 shares of common stock authorized for non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock grants, and stock appreciation rights, which are subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, and other situations. As of December 31, 2023, there were 3,330,000 shares of shares Common Stock awarded with 1,670,000 shares remaining for awards under the 2019 Plan.

 

 

 2 

 

 

2022 Stock Incentive Plan

 

Under our 2022 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”), there are 20,000,000 shares of common stock authorized for non-qualified and incentive stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock grants, and stock appreciation rights, which are subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, and other situations. As of December 31, 2023, there were 14,300,000 shares of Common Stock awarded (including 11,200,000 shares awarded but unvested) with 5,700,000 shares remaining for awards under the 2022 Plan.

 

Convertible Consulting Fees

 

We have entered into consulting agreements with two of our executive officers pursuant to which our executive officers may, at their election, convert their accrued and unpaid consulting fees into shares of our Common Stock at a 10% discount to the market price over the previous 30 days. We have estimated will need to reserve approximately 614,004,385 shares of Common Stock to account for these conversions.

 

Convertible Promissory Notes and Warrants

 

January 2018 Convertible Note and March 2019 Convertible Note and Warrants

 

On January 22, 2018, we issued a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $500,000 to Sergey Gogin (the “2018 Note”). In addition, on March 6, 2019, we issued a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $50,000 to YVSGRAMORAH LLC (the “2019 Note” and, together, with the 2018 Note, the “Notes”).

 

On July 25, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Company entering into amendments (the “Amendments”) to each of the Notes effective March 1, 2023 which extend the maturity dates to March 1, 2024, subject to additional one-year extensions in the event we do not receive prior written notice from the holder of the holder’s refusal to extend the maturity date.

 

In addition, beginning on July 21, 2023, at the option of the holder, the holder may only convert an aggregate of $50,000 of the Notes into shares of our Common Stock over the following three months and the holder may only convert additional aggregates of $50,000 over each three-month period (the “Quarterly Periods”). If during any Quarterly Period, either holder makes a conversion during the third month of the Quarterly Period, neither of the holders shall make any subsequent conversions until at least one month has passed. During any Quarterly Period, in the event that the average daily trading amount is at least $25,000 for the prior 30 days, the holder may convert an aggregate of $100,000 for the remainder of the Quarterly Period. Under each Note, “daily trading amount” means the daily amount of shares traded multiplied by the lowest traded daily share price. Under no circumstances may the holders, in the aggregate, convert more than $100,000 during any Quarterly Period.

 

The conversion price under each Note was amended to the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) per share of our Common Stock (subject to adjustments) for the previous ten trading days.

 

Lastly, the 2018 Note was amended to require the issuance of $20,000 of shares of our Common Stock (the “1st Incentive Shares”), upon the request of the holder, at the VWAP for the previous ten trading days. Upon full conversion of the Notes, we are also required to issue to Mr. Gogin $50,000 worth of shares of our Common Stock (the “2nd Incentive Shares”) at the VWAP for the previous ten trading days.

 

The unpaid aggregate balance of the Notes was $466,164 as of December 31, 2023.

 

The total warrants issued pursuant to the Notes as of December 31, 2023 were 634,615.

 

August 2019 Convertible Note and Warrants

 

On August 2, 2019, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with a related-party investor for the purchase of a 12% Secured Convertible Note in the principal amount of up to $125,000. The note was originally convertible into shares of our common stock at a rate of $0.08 per share. $75,000, $25,000, and $25,000 subscription funds were received by us from the investor on August 2, 2019, September 6, 2019, and October 16, 2019, respectively. In addition to the note, we issued to the investor an aggregate of 781,250 warrants.

 

 

 3 

 

 

Effective January 30, 2020, we went into technical default of the note agreement as a result of not making the December 31, 2019 interest payment within the required period. As a result, we were required to issue an additional 781,250 warrants.

 

The unpaid balance of the note is $188,690 as of December 31, 2023, and the note is convertible at $0.00084 per share.

 

The total warrants issued to the investor as of December 31, 2023 were 1,562,500.

 

July 2020 Convertible Note

 

In connection with entering into the Equity Financing Agreement, on July 29, 2020, we issued to GHS Investments, LLC (“GHS”) a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $75,000 (the “$75k Note”). The $75k Note is convertible at any time, upon the election of GHS, into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at $0.0009 per share. We have agreed to reserve two-and-a-half times the amount of shares of Common Stock into which the $75k Note is convertible.

 

The unpaid balance of the $75k Note is $58,988 as of December 31, 2023.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock

 

As of December 31, 2023, we had issued and outstanding 25,845 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 100 shares of our Common Stock.

 

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

 

As of December 31, 2023, we had issued and outstanding 516 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible to shares of our Common Stock at a price equal to the lowest traded price for our Common Stock during the 25 trading days preceding any conversion. Under the Certificate of Designation, we will reserve two-and-a-half times the amount of shares of Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible. We have estimated this amount to be 762,806,801.

 

Security   Shares to be Reserved out of Authorized
Outstanding shares of Common Stock:   555,015,293 shares of Common Stock
Shares of Common Stock remaining to be issued under stock incentive plans:   8,322,212 shares of Common Stock
Shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to conversions of accrued and unpaid consulting fees:   614,004,385 shares of Common Stock
Shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to conversions of outstanding convertible debt:   1,054,435,079 shares of Common Stock
Shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to exercises of issued warrants:   2,831,730 shares of Common Stock
Shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to conversions of issued and outstanding shares of Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock:   2,584,500 shares of Common Stock
Shares of Common Stock to be reserved pursuant to Series B Convertible Preferred designation:   762,806,801 shares of Common Stock
Total:   3,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock

 

The shares of Series B Preferred Stock are (as well as some of our convertible debt upon default) are convertible at rates that are dependent upon the trading price of our Common Stock from time to time. As a result, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable under these arrangements is variable.

 

Based on the above, the Board of Directors believes that the increase in our authorized Common Stock will allow us to comply with existing financing agreements and will also provide us greater flexibility with respect to the Company’s capital structure for purposes of obtaining additional financing.

Effects of the Increase in Authorized Common Stock

 

In the event of conversions of shares of preferred stock, outstanding convertible debt, and the exercise of warrants and the resulting increase in outstanding shares of Common Stock, the additional shares of Common Stock will have the same rights as the presently authorized shares, including the right to cast one vote per share of Common Stock. Although conversions of shares of preferred stock, debt conversions, warrant exercises and the authorization of additional shares will not, in itself, have any effect on the rights of any holder of our Common Stock, the future issuance of additional shares of Common Stock pursuant to the conversions of preferred stock, outstanding debt, and exercise of warrants, among others (other than by way of a stock split or dividend), would have the effect of diluting existing stockholders.

 

At present, the Board of Directors has no specific plans to issue the additional shares of Common Stock authorized by the Amendment (except as disclosed above). However, we anticipate that some of these additional shares will be used in the future for various purposes without further stockholder approval, except as such approval may be required in particular cases by our charter documents, applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or other quotation system on which our securities may then be listed. These purposes may include: raising capital, providing equity incentives to employees, officers or directors, establishing strategic relationships with other companies, and expanding our business or product lines through the acquisition of other businesses or products.

 

We could also use the additional shares of Common Stock that will become available pursuant to the Amendment to oppose a hostile takeover attempt or to delay or prevent changes in control or management of the Company. Although the Board’s approval of the Amendment was not prompted by the threat of any hostile takeover attempt (nor is the Board currently aware of any such attempts directed at us), stockholders should be aware that the Amendment could facilitate future efforts by us to deter or prevent changes in control of the Company, including transactions in which stockholders of the Company might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current market prices.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

General

 

Our current authorized capital stock consists of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which we have designated 25,845 shares as Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock and 600 Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. Our Board of Directors can, without shareholder approval, cause additional shares of preferred stock to be issued and may determine the price, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, of those additional shares. If our Board of Directors causes additional shares of preferred stock to be issued, the rights of the holders of our common stock could be adversely affected. Our Board of Directors’ ability to determine the terms of preferred stock and to cause its issuance, while providing desirable flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire a majority of our outstanding voting stock. Additional preferred shares issued by our Board of Directors could include voting rights, or even super voting rights, which could shift the ability to control the Company to the holders of the preferred stock. Additional preferred shares could also have conversion rights into shares of common stock at a discount to the market price of the common stock which could negatively affect the market for our common stock. In addition, additional preferred shares could have preference in the event of liquidation of the Company, which means that the holders of additional preferred shares would be entitled to receive the net assets of the Company distributed in liquidation before the common stock holders receive any distribution of the liquidated assets. We have no current plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock, except pursuant to our existing agreements with GHS.

 

Common Stock

 

The holders of outstanding common shares are entitled to receive dividends out of assets or funds legally available for the payment of dividends of such times and in such amounts as the board from time to time may determine. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. There is no cumulative voting of the election of directors then standing for election. The common shares are not entitled to pre-emptive rights and are not subject to conversion or redemption. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets legally available for distribution to stockholders are distributable ratably among the holders of the common shares after payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding payment of other claims of creditors. Each outstanding common share is duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize us to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue additional shares of preferred stock in one or more series, and fix for each series, the designation of and number of shares to be included in each such series. Our Board of Directors is also authorized to set the powers, privileges, preferences, and relative participating, optional or other rights, if any, of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each such series.

 

Unless our Board of Directors provides otherwise, the shares of all series of preferred stock will rank on parity with respect to the payment of dividends and to the distribution of assets upon liquidation. Any issuance by us of shares of our preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of our control or an unsolicited acquisition proposal. The issuance of preferred stock also could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to the holders of common stock or could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of common stock.

 

Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock

 

Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation for the Series A Preferred Stock, the material features of the Preferred Stock include the following:

 

Dividends

 

Initially, there will be no dividends due or payable on the Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock.

 

 

 8 

 

 

Liquidation Rights

 

Upon the occurrence of a Liquidation Event (as defined below), the holders of Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock are entitled to receive net assets on a pro-rata basis. Each holder of Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock is entitled to receive ratably any dividends declared by the Board, if any, out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. As used herein, “Liquidation Event” means (i) the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, whether voluntary or involuntary, of the Company, (ii) the purchase or redemption by the Company of shares of any class of stock or the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other corporation or corporations, or (iii) the sale, license or lease of all or substantially all, or any material part of, the Company’s assets.

 

Conversion Rights

 

Each holder of Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock may voluntarily convert its shares into shares of Common Stock of the Company at a rate of 1:100 (as may be adjusted for any combinations or splits with respect to such shares).

 

Voting Rights

 

If at least one share of Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock is issued and outstanding, then the total aggregate issued shares of Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock at any given time, regardless of their number, shall have voting rights equal to 20 times the sum of: i) the total number of shares of Common stock which are issued and outstanding at the time of voting, plus ii) the total number of shares of all Series of Preferred stocks which are issued and outstanding at the time of voting.

 

Each individual share of Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock shall have the voting rights equal to:

 

[twenty times the sum of: {all shares of Common stock issued and outstanding at the time of voting + all shares of Series A and any newly designated Preferred stock issued and outstanding at the time of voting}]

 

Divided by:

 

[the number of shares of Series A Supervoting Preferred Stock issued and outstanding at the time of voting]

 

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

 

Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred Stock, the material features of the Preferred Stock include the following:

 

  · The Preferred Stock is convertible to shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to the lowest trading price for the Company’s common stock during the 25 trading days preceding any conversion;

 

  · Conversions are limited so that no conversion may be made to the extent that, following a conversion, the beneficial ownership of GHS and its affiliates would be more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock;

 

  · The Preferred Stock is entitled to receive dividends at an annual rate of 12% on the stated value thereof, payable quarterly;

 

  · At the Company’s option, dividend payments may be made in cash or by the issuance of additional shares of Preferred Stock, valued at the stated value ($1,200 per share) thereof;

 

  · The Preferred Stock may, at the Company’s option, be redeemed by the Company’s payment of the stated value thereof with the following premiums based on the time of the redemption:

 

  o 115% of the stated value if the redemption takes place within 90 days of issuance;

 

  o 120% of the stated value if the redemption takes place after 90 days and within 120 days of issuance;

 

 

 9 

 

 

  o 125% of the stated value if the redemption takes place after 120 days and within 180 days of issuance; and

 

  o each share of Preferred Stock is redeemed one year from the day of issuance.

 

  · The Preferred Stock will vote together with the Company’s common stock on an as-converted basis on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s shareholders, but not in excess of the 4.99% conversion limitation;

 

  · Holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled to “piggy-back” registration rights, and may, at their option, include the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock in any future registration statement to be filed by the Company;

 

  · If the Company fails to timely deliver the required shares of common stock upon a conversion of the Preferred Stock, or if the Company otherwise breaches the material covenants of the COD, the Company will incur significant financial penalties, including, but not limited to, the payment of liquidated damages and the forced redemption of the Preferred Stock at the sum of (a) the greater of (i) 135% of the stated value and (ii) the product of (y) the VWAP on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the triggering event, multiplied by (z) the stated value divided by the then applicable conversion price (b) all accrued but unpaid dividends and (c) all liquidated damages, late fees, and other costs and expenses due (the sum of (a), (b), and (c), the “Triggering Redemption Amount”). The holder may also (i) redeem all of the Preferred Stock through the issuance of shares of common stock equal to the quotient of (x) the Triggering Redemption Amount, divided by (y) the lowest of (1) the conversion price, and (2) 75% of the average of the 10 VWAPs immediately prior to the date of election, and (ii) increase the dividend rate on all of the outstanding Preferred Stock held by the holder retroactively to the initial closing date to 18% per annum thereafter.

  

Under additional covenants set forth in the COD, holders of the Preferred Stock enjoy certain other rights, including:

 

  · The right to have the conversion price adjusted downward to match the conversion price of any newly-issued variable price convertible security with a conversion price more favorable than that set forth in the COD;

 

  · The right to participate in any future rights offerings; and

 

  · The right to participate in any future financings the Company may conduct.

 

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

 

Ranking

 

The Series C Convertible Preferred Stock shall rank, as to dividends and upon Liquidation (as defined in Section 4(a) hereof), (a) senior and prior to Junior Securities issued by the Company; (b) pari passu and on parity with any other class or series of Preferred Stock hereafter created specifically ranking, by its terms, on parity with the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock; (c) junior to the Series B Preferred Stock; and (d) junior to any class or series of capital stock of the Company hereafter created specifically ranking, by its terms, senior to the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. All equity securities of the Company to which the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock ranks prior upon liquidation, including, without limitation, the Company’s common stock, are collectively referred to herein as “Junior Securities.”

 

Dividends

 

(a) Dividends in Cash or in Kind. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, and the Corporation shall pay cumulative dividends of 12% per annum, payable quarterly, beginning on the issuance date and ending on the date that such share of Series C Preferred Share has been converted (the "Dividend End Date"). Dividends may be paid in cash or in shares of Series C Preferred Stock.

 

(b) Participating Dividends on As-Converted Basis. From and after the issuance date, in addition to the payment of dividends pursuant to Section 3(a), each Holder shall be entitled to receive, and the Corporation shall pay, dividends on shares of Series C Preferred Stock equal to (on an as-if-converted-to-Common-Stock basis) and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the Common Stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of the Common Stock. The Corporation shall pay no dividends on shares of the Common Stock unless it simultaneously complies with the previous sentence.

 

 

 10 

 

 

(c) Dividend Calculations. Dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, consisting of twelve (12) thirty (30) calendar day periods, and shall accrue and compound daily commencing on the issuance date, and shall be deemed to accrue from such date whether or not earned or declared and whether or not there are profits, surplus or other funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of dividends. Dividends shall cease to accrue with respect to any Series C Preferred Stock redeemed or converted, provided that the Corporation actually delivers the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

(d) Late Fees. Any dividends that are not paid on the dividend payment date shall continue to accrue and shall entail a late fee ("Late Fees"), which must be paid in cash, at the rate of 18% per annum or the lesser rate permitted by applicable law which shall accrue and compound daily from the dividend payment date through and including the date of actual payment in full.

 

(e) Other Securities. So long as any Series C Preferred Stock shall remain outstanding, neither the Corporation nor any subsidiary thereof shall redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire directly or indirectly any Junior Securities or pari passu securities other than any Series C Preferred Stock purchased to the terms of this Certificate of Designation. So long as any Series C Preferred Stock shall remain outstanding, neither the Corporation nor any subsidiary thereof shall directly or indirectly pay or declare any dividend or make any distribution upon (other than a dividend or distribution described in Section 3 or dividends due and paid in the ordinary course on preferred stock of the Corporation at such times when the Corporation is in compliance with its payment and other obligations hereunder), nor shall any distribution be made in respect of any Junior Securities or pari passu securities as long as any dividends due on the Series C Preferred Stock remain unpaid, nor shall any monies be set aside for or applied to the purchase or redemption (through a sinking fund or otherwise) of any Junior Securities or pari passu securities.

 

Liquidation Preference

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary (a “Liquidation”), the holders shall be paid, in preference and prior to any payment made to the holders of the Junior Securities and any other stock ranking in liquidation junior to the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, an amount per share equal to the Stated Value (as defined in the Designation) (such amount is referred to herein as the “Liquidation Preference”). If upon a Liquidation Event (as defined in the Designation), the assets to be distributed among the holders shall be insufficient to permit payment in full to the holders of the Liquidation Preference, then the entire assets of the Company shall be distributed ratably among such holders in proportion to the full respective Liquidation Preference to which they are entitled.

 

Conversion Rights

 

The holder shall have the right, at any time to convert such shares into Common Stock into that number of shares of common stock (subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined in the Designation)) determined by dividing the Stated Value (as defined in the Designation) of such share of Series C Preferred Stock by the Optional Conversion Rate (each, an “Optional Conversion”) at a conversion rate of the volume-weighted average price for the Company’s common stock for the ten Trading Days immediately preceding the date of such conversion (the “Optional Conversion Rate”).

 

Voting Rights

 

The holder shall be entitled to vote on an as-converted basis (subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined in the Designation)), together with the holders of Common Stock, with respect to any question upon which the holders of Common Stock have the right to vote, except as may be otherwise provided by applicable law. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Designation or as required by law, the holders of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and the holders of Common Stock shall vote together and not as separate classes.

Nevada Anti-Takeover Laws

 

The Nevada “Acquisition of Controlling Interest” statutes generally provide that any person or entity that acquires 20% or more of the outstanding voting shares of a publicly-held Nevada corporation in the secondary public or private market may be denied voting rights with respect to the acquired shares, unless a majority of the disinterested shareholders of the corporation elects to restore such voting rights in whole or in part. The control share acquisition act provides that a person or entity acquires “control shares” whenever it acquires shares that, but for the operation of the control share acquisition act, would bring its voting power within any of the following three ranges: (1) 20 to 33 1/3%, (2) 33 1/3 to 50%, or (3) more than 50%. A “control share acquisition” is generally defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of either ownership or voting power associated with issued and outstanding control shares. The shareholders or board of directors of a corporation may elect to exempt the stock of the corporation from the provisions of the control share acquisition act through adoption of a provision to that effect in the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the corporation. Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws do not exempt our common stock from the control share acquisition act. The control share acquisition act is applicable only to shares of “Issuing Corporations” as defined by the act. An Issuing Corporation is a Nevada corporation, which; (1) has 200 or more shareholders, with at least 100 of such shareholders being both shareholders of record and residents of Nevada; and (2) does business in Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation.

 

At this time, we do not have 100 shareholders of record resident of Nevada. Therefore, the provisions of the control share acquisition act do not apply to acquisitions of our shares and will not until such time as these requirements have been met. At such time as they may apply to us, the provisions of the control share acquisition act may discourage companies or persons interested in acquiring a significant interest in or control of the company, regardless of whether such acquisition may be in the interest of our shareholders.

 

The Nevada “Combination with Interested Stockholders Statute” may also have an effect of delaying or making it more difficult to effect a change in control of the company. This statute prevents an “interested stockholder” and a resident domestic Nevada corporation from entering into a “combination,” unless certain conditions are met. The statute defines “combination” to include any merger or consolidation with an “interested stockholder,” or any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition, in one transaction or a series of transactions with an “interested stockholder” having; (1) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of the assets of the corporation; (2) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of all outstanding shares of the corporation; or (3) representing 10% or more of the earning power or net income of the corporation. An “interested stockholder” means the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the voting shares of a resident domestic corporation, or an affiliate or associate thereof. A corporation affected by the statute may not engage in a “combination” within three years after the interested stockholder acquires its shares unless the combination or purchase is approved by the board of directors before the interested stockholder acquired such shares. If approval is not obtained, then after the expiration of the three-year period, the business combination may be consummated with the approval of the board of directors or a majority of the voting power held by disinterested stockholders, or if the consideration to be paid by the interested stockholder is at least equal to the highest of: (1) the highest price per share paid by the interested stockholder within the three years immediately preceding the date of the announcement of the combination or in the transaction in which he became an interested stockholder, whichever is higher; (2) the market value per common share on the date of announcement of the combination or the date the interested stockholder acquired the shares, whichever is higher; or (3) if higher for the holders of preferred stock, the highest liquidation value of the preferred stock. The effect of Nevada’s business combination law is to potentially discourage parties interested in taking control of the company from doing so if it cannot obtain the approval of our board of directors.
