NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that, on March 6 2015, Golden Opportunities Corporation (“GOC”), a Delaware corporation obtained the unanimous written consent of its board of directors and the written consent of stockholders holding 19,555,000 common shares of GOC or 58.25% of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of GOC’s common stock approving:

AMENDMENT TO
GOLDEN OPPORTUNITIES CORPORATION’S
ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
The Board of Directors and Majority Stockholders have approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to affect an authorized common stock increase.
We intend to file a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware effectuating the above action. Pursuant to Rule 14c-2 under the Exchange Act, the actions will not be effective until twenty (20) days after the date this Information Statement is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and a copy thereof is mailed to each of our stockholders. It is presently contemplated that such filing will be made on or about March 26, 2015.
The Authorized Common Stock Increase
The purpose of the increase in common stock is to increase the number of shares of our common stock available for issuance to possible investors who may agree to provide GOC with the funding it requires to continue its operations, and/or to persons in connection with potential acquisition transactions, warrant or option exercises and other transactions under which our Board of Directors may determine is in the best interest of GOC and our stockholder to issue shares of common stock.
The increase in authorized common stock will not have any immediate effect on the rights of existing stockholders, but may have a dilutive effect our existing stockholders if additional shares are issued.
We are not increasing our authorized common stock to construct or enable any anti-takeover defense or mechanism on behalf of GOC. While it is possible that management could use the additional shares to resist or frustrate a third-party transaction providing an above-market premium that is favored by a majority of the independent stockholders, we have no intent or plan to employ the additional unissued authorized shares as an anti-takeover device.
Authorization of Preferred Shares
Preferred Stock: Shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as determined by the Board of Directors. All shares of Preferred Stock shall be of equal rank and shall be identical, except as fixed by the Board of Directors for each series as provided herein.

The Board of Directors is hereby authorized, by resolution to provide, out of the unissued shares of Preferred Stock, not allocated to any series of Preferred Stock, for one or more series of Preferred Stock. Before any shares of any such series are issued, the Board of Directors shall fix and determine, and is hereby expressly authorized and empowered to fix and determine, by resolution, the powers, designations, preferences and relative participation rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, if any, and the Board of Directors is expressly authorized and empowered to fix and determine any and all of the following provisions of the shares of such series:
(1) | the designation of such series and the number of shares which shall constitute such series; | |
| ||
(2) | the annual dividend rate, if any, payable on shares of such series, expressed in a dollar amount per share, and the date or dates from which such dividends shall commence to accrue and shall be cumulative; | |
| ||
(3) | the price or prices at which and the terms and conditions, if any, on which shares of such series may be redeemed; | |
| ||
(4) | the amounts payable upon shares of such series, in the event of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, distribution of assets (other than payment of dividends), dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation; | |
| ||
(5) | the sinking funds or mandatory redemption provisions, if any, for the redemption or purchase of shares of such series; | |
| ||
(6) | the extent of the voting powers, if any, of the shares of such series; | |
