Item 5.03. | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws. |
On July 30, 2012, we filed a Certificate of Change with the Secretary of State of Nevada to effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock at a ratio of one share for every 40 shares outstanding prior to the effective date of the reverse stock split. The reverse stock split will become effective on August 1, 2012. Effective at the same time as the reverse stock split, the authorized shares of our common stock will be proportionately decreased from 500,000,000 shares to 12,500,000 shares.
Each shareholder's percentage ownership interest in our company and the proportional voting power remains unchanged after the reverse stock split, except for minor changes and adjustments resulting from rounding up of fractional interests. The rights and privileges of the holders of our common stock are unaffected by the reverse stock split.
A copy of the Certificate of Change is attached to this current report as Exhibit 3.1.
On August 1, 2012, we issued a press release announcing the reverse stock split effective on August 1, 2012. The full text of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report.
