Equity Transactions | Note 6. Equity Transactions Preferred Stock At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.01 to be issued in series with terms and conditions to be determined by the Board of Directors. 2,000,000 of the shares of preferred stock has been designated as Class A Preferred Stock. The Class A Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to 150 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company. 10,000 of the shares of preferred stock has been designated as Class B Preferred Stock. The Class A Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to 150 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company. The Class B Stock includes the right to vote in an amount equal to 51% of the votes to approve certain corporate actions, including, without limitation, changing the name of the Company and increasing the number of authorized shares. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, no distribution shall be made to the holders of shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Class A or Class B Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of shares of Class A or Class B Preferred Stock shall have received $1.50 per share (the “Stated Amount”). The Class A and Class B Preferred Stock shall rank, with respect to the payment of liquidation, dividends and the distribution of assets, senior to the Company’s Common Stock. The Holder (as defined in the Class A Preferred Stock certificate of designations) of the Class A Preferred Stock may convert all or part of the outstanding and unpaid Stated Amount (as defined in the Class A Preferred Stock certificate of designations) into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock at the Conversion Price (as defined in the Class A Preferred Stock certificate of designations). The number of shares receivable upon conversion equals the Stated Amount divided by the Conversion Price. The Conversion Price shall be equal to 75% of the average closing price for the 30 trading days prior to the election to convert. At no time will the Company convert any of the Stated Amount into common stock if that would result in the Holder beneficially owning more than 49% of the sum of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock plus the voting power of the Class A Preferred Stock. No shares of Class A Preferred Stock have been issued. The shares of the Class B Preferred Stock shall be automatically redeemed by the Company at $0.01 per share on the date that Tim N. Tangredi ceases, for any reason, to serve as an officer, director, or consultant of the Company. During January and February 2022, after the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors, with input from the Company’s financial advisors, completed its reevaluation of the Company’s capital structure, including the advisability of authorizing addition series of preferred stock, par value $0.01 (“Preferred Stock”). The Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to authorize four new series of Preferred Stock (sometimes referred to as “New Series of Preferred Stock”). As a result, the Board of Directors and management with the assistance of its outside financial advisors prepared a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation for the purpose authorizing the four New Series of Preferred Stock, which was subject to the filing by the Company of a Certificate of Amendment with the Department of State of the State of New York (“Certificate of Amendment”). To implement the authorization of the four New Series of Preferred Stock, the Certificate of Amendment was submitted to the Department of State on March 17, 2022, and was accepted for filing on March 22, 2022. The recently authorized New Series of Preferred Stock included: (i) Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, consisting of 100,000 shares, all of which were to be issued following acceptance of the Certificate of Amendment by the Department of State, to two (2) third-party accredited investors who had provided bona fide financial consulting services to the Company; (ii) Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, consisting of 10,000 shares, which shares may be issued, at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors, from time to time, to consultants and other third parties for, among other purposes, new services to the Company and for other good and valuable consideration, none of which shares have been issued; (iii) Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, consisting of 250,000 shares, all of which were to be issued following final acceptance of the Certificate of Amendment by the Department of State, being issued to three (3) “accredited investors” including the Company’s financial advisors in consideration for their capital contributions to the Company; and (iv) Series F Convertible Preferred Stock consisting of 1,500,000 shares which are intended to be issued to several long-tenured key employees and the Company’s Board of Directors in consideration for previously rendered services to the Company as well as to certain noteholders and others under agreements and arrangements that have been authorized by the Board of Directors.
