The following is a summary of the material terms, limitations, voting powers and relative rights of the Company’s common stock as contained in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the “Articles of Incorporation”). This summary does not purport to be a complete description of the terms and conditions of the Company’s common stock in all respects and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Articles of Incorporation, the Company’s Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), the Nevada Revised Statutes and any other documents from which the summary descriptions are derived.

General
The Company has one class of common stock. The total authorized shares of capital stock of the Company consist of: (i) 65,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share; and (ii) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. Of the 65,000,000 authorized shares of the common stock, 18,042,944 shares were outstanding as of March 31, 2020. No preferred shares are issued.
Voting Power
Except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise provided in any certificate of designation for any series of preferred stock, the holders of common stock possess all voting power for the election of directors and all other matters requiring shareholder action, except with respect to amendments to the Articles of Incorporation that alter or change the powers, preferences, rights or other terms of any outstanding preferred stock if the holders of such affected series of preferred stock are entitled to vote on such an amendment. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on matters to be voted on by shareholders. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws, all matters to be voted on by the Company’s shareholders must be approved by a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter.
Dividends
Holders of common stock will be equally entitled to receive such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Company’s board of directors in its discretion out of funds legally available therefor. Dividends on the Company’s common stock are subject to the rights of holders of the Company’s issued and outstanding preferred stock.
Liquidation Distribution
In the event of the Company’s voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, distribution of assets or winding-up, the holders of the common stock will be entitled to receive an equal amount per share of all of the Company’s assets of whatever kind available for distribution to holders of the Company’s common stock, after the rights of the holders of the preferred stock have been satisfied.
Impact of Preferred Stock
The rights of holders of the Company’s common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of holders of any preferred stock that may be issued in the future. The board of directors of the Company is authorized to provide for the issuance from time to time of preferred stock in one or more series and, as to each series, to fix the designations, powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof (including but not limited to provisions related to dividends, conversion, voting, redemption and liquidation preference, which may be superior to those of the Company’s common stock).

| Item 5. | Interests of Named Experts and Counsel. |
Howard & Howard Attorneys LLLP has opined as to the legality of the securities being offered by this registration statement.
| Item 6. | Indemnification of Directors and Officers. |
The Nevada Revised Statutes provide that a corporation may indemnify its officers and directors against expenses actually and reasonably incurred in the event an officer or director is made a party or threatened to be made a party to an action (other than an action brought by or in the right of the corporation as discussed below) by reason of his or her official position with the corporation provided the director or officer (1) is not liable for the breach of any fiduciary duties as a director or officer involving intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law or (2) acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. A corporation may indemnify its officers and directors against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred in the event an officer or director is made a party or threatened to be made a party to an action brought by or in the right of the corporation by reason of his or her official position with the corporation, provided the director or officer (1) is not liable for the breach of any fiduciary duties as a director or officer involving intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the laws or (2) acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation. The Nevada Revised Statutes further provides that a corporation generally may not indemnify an officer or director if it is determined by a court that such officer or director is liable to the corporation or responsible for any amounts paid to the corporation as a settlement, unless a court also determines that the officer or director is entitled to indemnification in light of all of the relevant facts and circumstances. The Nevada Revised Statutes require a corporation to indemnify an officer or director to the extent he or she is successful on the merits or otherwise successfully defends the action.
The Company’s bylaws provide that it will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law. In addition, the Company has entered into separate indemnification agreements with certain of its directors and officers that require the Company, among other things, advance expenses to these individuals and to indemnify such directors and officers against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service so long as such individuals acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. The Company may enter into similar agreements in the future. The Company also maintains and intends to continue to maintain director and officer liability insurance, if available on reasonable terms.

| Item 7. | Exemption from Registration Claimed. |
Not applicable.
| Item 8. | Exhibits. |
See Exhibit Index.
| Item 9. | Undertakings. |
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment hereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
6
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
