(Pursuant to Sections 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware)

Applied UV, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware does hereby certify:

FIRST: That at a meeting of the Board of Directors of Applied UV, Inc. resolutions were duly adopted setting forth a proposed amendments of the certificate of incorporation of said corporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), declaring said amendments to be advisable and calling a meeting of the stockholders of said corporation for consideration thereof. The resolution setting forth the proposed amendment is as follows:

“RESOLVED, that the Certificate of Incorporation of this corporation be amended by deleting Article IV, Section 1 in its entirety and inserting the following:

ARTICLE IV

Section 1. (a) Number of Authorized Shares. The total number of shares of stock which the Corporation shall have the authority to issue shall be One Hundred Seventy Million (170,000,000) shares. The Corporation shall be authorized to issue two classes of shares of stock, designated as “Common Stock” and “Preferred Stock.” The Corporation shall be authorized to issue One Hundred Fifty Million (150,000,000) shares of Common Stock, each share to have a par value of $0.0001 per share, and Twenty Million (20,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock, each share to have a par value of $0.0001 per share.

(b) Reverse Stock Split. Effective as of 12:01 A.M. on May 30, 2023 (the “Effective Time”), each five (5) shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the Corporation or the respective holders thereof, be combined and converted into one (1) share of Common Stock without increasing or decreasing number of authorized shares of Common Stock or the par value of each share of Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split and, in lieu thereof, upon surrender after the Effective Time of a certificate or book entry position which formerly represented shares of Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, any person who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, following the Effective Time, shall be entitled to receive a cash payment (without interest and subject to withholding taxes, as applicable) equal to the fraction of a share of Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing price of Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the first business day immediately preceding the Effective Time (as adjusted in good faith by the Corporation to account for the reverse stock split ratio). The Reverse Stock Split shall occur whether or not the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock are surrendered to the Corporation or its transfer agent. Each certificate or book entry position that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of Common Stock shall thereafter represent the number of shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Common Stock represented by such certificate or book entry position has been combined, subject to the elimination of fractional interests set forth above.”

SECOND: That thereafter, the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a stockholders meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted, approved of the proposed amendment at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 24, 2023 pursuant to Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

THIRD: That said amendment was duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
