OTHER EVENTS This Form 8-K amends the description of the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Blue Dolphin Energy Company, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), contained in the Registration Statement on Form 8-A, as amended filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 17, 1990. Pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended, the authorized capital stock of the Company as of the date hereof, consists of 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 2,500,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.10 per share (the "Preferred Stock"). As of April 30, 2000, we had 5,950,880 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and no shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. The following is a description of the Company's capital stock. COMMON STOCK. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted for a vote to the holders of the capital stock of the Company. The Common Stock does not have cumulative voting rights. Subject to the superior rights of any series of Preferred Stock, the holders of Common Stock may receive ratably dividends if, when and as declared by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors") out of funds legally available therefore and, upon liquidation of the Company, are entitled to all assets remaining after the satisfaction of liabilities. The Common Stock has no redemption, conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights. The Common Stock is traded on the Nasdaq Small Cap Market under the Symbol "BDCO." The Transfer agent and registrar of the Common Stock is Securities Transfer Corporation, Dallas, Texas. PREFERRED STOCK. The Board of Directors is empowered, without the approval of the stockholders, to authorize the issuance of Preferred Stock in one or more series, to establish the number of shares included in each series, and to fix the relative rights, powers, preferences and limitations of each series. As a result, the Board of Directors has the power to afford the holders of any series of Preferred Stock greater rights, powers, preferences and limitations than the holders of Common Stock. The ability of the Board of Directors to establish the rights, powers, preferences and limitations and to issue Preferred Stock could be used as an anti-takeover device. ITEM 7.
