(b) The Conversion Ratio shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with the
following:
i. In case the Corporation shall have at any time or from time to time after the Series E Issue Date, paid a dividend, or made a distribution, on the outstanding shares of Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, subdivided the outstanding shares of Common Stock, combined the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of issued by reclassification of the shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Corporation, then, and with respect to each such case, the Conversion Ratio shall be adjusted so that the holder of any shares of Series E Stock shall be entitled to receive upon conversion the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Corporation which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive immediately prior to such events or the record date therefor, whichever is earlier, assuming the Series E Stock had been converted into Common Stock, it being the intention of the foregoing, to provide the holders of Series E Stock with the same benefits and securities as such holders would have received as holders of Common Stock if the Series E Stock had been converted into Common Stock at the Conversion Ratio on the Series E Issue Date and such holders had continued to hold such Common Stock.
ii. In case the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Series E Issue Date declare, order, pay or make a dividend or other distribution (including, without limitation, any distribution of stock or other securities or property or rights or warrants to subscribe for securities of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries by way of dividend or spin-oft), on its Common Stock, other than dividends or distributions of shares of Common Stock which are referred to in clause (i) of this section (b), then the holders of the Series E Stock shall be entitled to receive upon conversion their pro rata share of any such dividend or other distribution on an as converted basis; provided, however, that any plan or declaration of a dividend or distribution shall not have been abandoned or rescinded.
iii. If the Corporation shall be a party to any transaction including without limitation, a merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation's assets or a reorganization, reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock, (such actions being referred to as a "Transaction), in each case, as a result of which shares of Common Stock are converted into the right to receive stock securities or other property (including cash or any combination thereof), each share of Series E Stock shall thereafter be convertible into the number of shares of stock or securities or property to which a holder of one hundred times the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation deliverable upon conversion of such Series E Stock would have been entitled to upon such Transaction; and, in any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined by the Board) shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this Subsection, with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the holders of the Series E Preferred Stock, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Subsection shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of the Series E Stock. The Corporation shall not effect any Transaction (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Corporation is the continuing corporation) unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the Corporation, or the successor corporation or purchaser, as the case may be, shall provide in its charter document that each share of Series E Stock shall be converted into such shares of stock, securities or property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, each such holder is entitled to receive. The provisions of this paragraph shall similarly apply to successive Transactions.
(c) The Corporation will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section (b) and in taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the holders of the Series E Stock against impairment.
(d) In the event of any taking by the Corporation of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution, the Corporation shall mail to each holder of Series E Stock a notice specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend or distribution at least ten (10) day prior to such record date.
(e) The Corporation shall, at or prior to the time of any conversion, take any and all action necessary to increase its authorized, but unissued Common Stock and to reserve and keep available out of its authorized, but unissued Common Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall, from time to time, be sufficient to effect conversion of the outstanding shares of Series E Stock.
F. Reverse Split
“Reverse Split. Simultaneously with the effective date of this Amendment (the “Effective Time”) each of one hundred fifty (150) shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Old Common Stock”) shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be reclassified as and changed, pursuant to a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”), into one (1) share of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (the “New Common Stock”), subject to the treatment of fractional share interests as described below. Each holder of a certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Old Common Stock (“Old Certificates,” whether one or more) shall be entitled to receive upon surrender of such Old Certificates to the Company’s transfer agent for cancellation, a certificate or certificates (the “New Certificates,” whether one or more) representing the number of whole shares of the New Common Stock into and for which the shares of the Old Common Stock formerly represented by such Old Certificates so surrendered are reclassified under the terms hereof. From and after the Effective Time each outstanding option to purchase common stock and each security or debt instrument convertible into common stock will automatically be adjusted so that the number of shares of common stock issuable upon their exercise or conversion shall be divided by 150 and corresponding adjustment will be made to the number of shares vested under each outstanding option and the exercise price or conversion shall be multiplied by 150, subject to rounding. From and after the Effective Time, Old Certificates shall thereupon be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of New Common Stock in the appropriately reduced whole number of shares. No certificates or script representing fractional share interests in New Common Stock will be issued, and no cash payments will be made therefore. In lieu of any fraction of a share of New Common Stock to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the holder will receive one (1) whole share of the Company’s New Common Stock. If more than one (1) Old Certificate shall be surrendered at one time for the account of the same Shareholder, the number of full shares of New Common Stock for which New Certificates shall be issued shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares represented by the Old Certificates so surrendered. In the event that the Company’s transfer agent determines that a holder of Old Certificates has not surrendered all of his certificates for exchange, the transfer agent shall carry forward any fractional share until all certificates of that holder have been presented for exchange such that consideration for fractional shares for any one person shall not exceed the value of one (1) share of New Common Stock. If any New Certificate is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Old Certificate was issued, the Old Certificates so surrendered shall be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer, and the stock transfer tax stamps to the Old Certificates so surrendered shall be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer, and the person or persons requesting such exchange shall affix any requisite stock or transfer tax stamps to the Old Certificates surrendered, or provide funds for their purchase, or establish to the satisfaction of the transfer agent that such taxes are not payable. From and after the Effective Time, the amount of capital shall be represented by the shares of the New Common Stock into which and for which the shares of the Old Common Stock are reclassified, until thereafter reduced or increased in accordance with applicable law. All references elsewhere in these Articles of Incorporation, as amended, to the “Common Stock” shall, after the Effective Time, refer to the “New Common Stock.” The filing of the Amendment shall not cause any change in the number of shares of any series of Preferred Stock that are issued and outstanding at the time the Amendment is filed.”
ARTICLE IV
Cumulative Voting Prohibition
Shareholders shall have no rights of cumulative voting.
ARTICLE V
Preemptive Rights Prohibition
Shareholders shall have no rights, preemptive or otherwise, NRS 78.267 of Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (or similar provisions of future law) to acquire any part of any unissued shares or other securities of this Corporation or any rights to purchase shares or other securities of this Corporation before the Corporation may offer them to other persons.
ARTICLE VI
Directors’ Action by Written Consent
Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Board of Directors may be taken by written action signed by all of the directors then in office, unless the action is one which need not be approved by the shareholders, in which case such action shall be effective if signed by the number of directors that would be required to take the same action at a meeting at which all directors are present.
ARTICLE VII
Shareholders Action by Written Consent
Action required or permitted to be taken by the shareholders of the Corporation pursuant to the provisions of the NRS may be taken without a meeting of the shareholders by persons who would be entitled to vote at a meeting share having voting power to cast not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize the action at a meeting at which all shareholders entitled to vote were present and voted. Any such action shall be evidenced by one or more written consents or by authenticated electronic communication describing the action taken, signed by shareholders entitled to take action, and shall be delivered to the Corporation for inclusion in the minutes or filing with the corporate records. The record date of any action taken by written consent shall be the date on which the first shareholder signs the consent. No such consent shall be valid unless (A) the consenting shareholders have been furnished the same material that would have been required to be sent to shareholders in a notice of a meeting at which the proposed action would have been submitted to the shareholders for action, including notice of any applicable dissenters' rights as provided in the Nevada Revised Statutes or (B) the written consent contains an express waiver of the right to receive the material otherwise required to be furnished. Any shareholders who do not participate in the taking of any such action by written consent shall be given written notice of the action taken together with any materials required to be delivered pursuant to the NRS.

If the NRS is amended after the date of filing of these Articles of Incorporation to authorize corporate action further limiting or eliminating the personal liability of a director, then the liability of the directors of the Corporation shall be limited or eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, as so amended, or a similar successor provision.

ARTICLE XI
Indemnification
1. Discretionary Indemnification. (a) The Corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the Corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (i) is not liable pursuant to Section 78.138 of the NRS; or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, of itself, create a presumption that the person is liable pursuant to Section 78.138 of the NRS or did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, or that, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
(b) The Corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation. partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he: (i) is not liable pursuant to Section 78.138 of the NRS; or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the Corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the Corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the courts deem proper.
2. Determination of Discretionary Indemnification. Any discretionary indemnification pursuant to Section 1 of this Article XI, unless ordered by a court or advanced pursuant to this Section 2, may be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances. The determination must be made:
(a) By the stockholders; or
(b) By the Board of Directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding; or
(c) If a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or
(d) If a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion.
The expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding must be paid by the Corporation as they are incurred in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation.
