Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
Effective September 1, 2021, the registrant (the “Company”) changed its corporate name from Cytocom, Inc. to Statera Biopharma, Inc. The name change was effected following approval by the Company’s board of directors through the filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation. In accordance with Section 242(b)(1) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, stockholder approval of the name change was not required. A copy of the Certificate of Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated by reference herein. The name change does not affect the rights of the Company’s security holders, creditors or suppliers. Following the name change, any stock certificates that reflect the Company’s prior name will continue to be valid. Certificates reflecting the new name will be issued in due course as old stock certificates are tendered for exchange or transfer to our transfer agent.
Also effective September 1, 2021, the Company’s common stock began trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market with the symbol “STAB” and it is represented by a new CUSIP number, 857561 104.
