Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

As previously disclosed, the Board of Directors of Camber Energy, Inc. (the “Company”), approved, on October 24, 2019, a 1-for-50 reverse stock split of the Company’s (a) authorized shares of common stock; and (b) issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”).

Reason for the Reverse Stock Split

The Reverse Stock Split was effected solely to enable the Company to expeditiously meet the low price per share selling price requirements of the NYSE American (which the Company was previously advised it was in non-compliance with) and to reduce the risk of the Company being automatically delisted from the NYSE American due to the trading price of its common stock falling below $0.06 per share, which typically triggers the NYSE American to begin delisting procedures regarding a listed company’s securities.

Effects of the Reverse Stock Split

Effective Date; Symbol; CUSIP Number. The Reverse Stock Split became effective at 12:01 a.m. Central Standard Time on October 29, 2019, and was reflected with the NYSE American and in the marketplace at the open of business on October 29, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), whereupon the shares of common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis. In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, the Company’s shares of common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE American under the symbol “CEI” but will trade under a new CUSIP Number, 13200M 508.

Split Adjustment; No Fractional Shares. On the Effective Date, the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock held by each shareholder were converted automatically into the number of whole shares of common stock equal to (i) the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock held by such shareholder immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split, divided by (ii) 50.

No fractional shares will be issued, and no cash or other consideration will be paid. Instead, the Company will issue one whole share of the post-Reverse Stock Split common stock to any shareholder who otherwise would have received a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.

Non-Certificated Shares; Certificated Shares. Stockholders who are holding their shares in electronic form at brokerage firms do not have to take any action as the effect of the Reverse Stock Split will automatically be reflected in their brokerage accounts.

Stockholders holding paper certificates may (but are not required to) send the certificates to the Company’s transfer agent at the address given below. The transfer agent will issue a new share certificate reflecting the terms of the Reverse Stock Split to each requesting shareholder.

State Filing. The Reverse Stock Split was affected by the Company filing a Certificate of Change (the “Certificate”) pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Section 78.209 with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on October 28, 2019. The Certificate was not effective until the Effective Date. A copy of the Certificate is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

No Stockholder Approval Required. Under Nevada law, because the Reverse Stock Split was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company in accordance with NRS Section 78.207, no shareholder approval was required. NRS Section 78.207 provides that the Company may affect the Reverse Stock Split without shareholder approval if (x) both the number of authorized shares of common stock and the number of outstanding shares of common stock are proportionally reduced as a result of the Reverse Stock Split; (y) the Reverse Stock Split does not adversely affect any other class of stock of the Company; and (z) the Company does not pay money or issue scrip to shareholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. As described herein, the Company has complied with these requirements.

Capitalization. Prior to the Effective Date of the Certificate, the Company was authorized to issue 250,000,000 shares of common stock. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of common stock (the Company’s authorized shares of common stock were reduced in the same ratio (1-for-50) as its outstanding common stock was reduced). As of October 29, 2019 (immediately prior to the Effective Date), there were 74,535,701 shares of common stock outstanding. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, there are approximately 1,490,714 shares of common stock outstanding (subject to adjustment due to the effect of rounding fractional shares into whole shares). The Reverse Stock Split will not have any effect on the stated par value of the common stock.

The Reverse Stock Split does not affect the Company’s authorized preferred stock. After the Reverse Stock Split, the Company’s authorized preferred Stock of 10,000,000 shares remained unchanged. Additionally, the Reverse Stock Split will not affect the par value of the preferred stock, or previously designated series of preferred stock, except to affect, where applicable, the conversion rates and voting rights of such preferred stock.

Each shareholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company and proportional voting power remains virtually unchanged as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, except for minor changes and adjustments that will result from rounding fractional shares into whole shares. The rights and privileges of the holders of shares of common stock will be substantially unaffected by the Reverse Stock Split.

All options, warrants and convertible securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split (to the extent they don’t provide otherwise) will be appropriately adjusted by dividing the number of shares of common stock into which the options, warrants and convertible securities are exercisable or convertible by 50 and multiplying the exercise or conversion price thereof by 50, as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
