THE PROPOSAL
The Proposal comprises the following action:
1)
The number of shares of Stock authorized by the Company to be issued be increased from 100,000,000 shares to 110,000,000 shares, comprising 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock par value $0.001 and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock par value $0.001.
2)
The Company Amend its Articles of Incorporation containing the terms and provisions detailed in the Information Statement.
Certificate of Amendment of Articles of Incorporation
Pursuant to the approval of the Proposal, the following amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation shall be filed with the Nevada Secretary of State:
Paragraph 3 of the Articles of Incorporation shall be as follows:
“3. The Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of shares of stock to be designated as “Common Stock” and “Preferred Stock”. The total number of shares of Common Stock which this Corporation is authorized to issue is One Hundred Ten Million (110,000,000) shares, par value $0.001. The total number of shares of Preferred Stock which this Corporation is authorized to issue is Ten Million (10,000,000) shares, par value $0.001.
The shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) is expressly authorized to provide for the issue of all or any of the shares of the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to fix the number of shares and to determine or alter for each such series, such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other rights and such qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issue of such shares (a “Preferred Stock Designation”) and as may be permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes. The Board of Directors is also expressly authorized to increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series subsequent to the issue of shares of that series. In case the number of shares of any such series shall be so decreased, the shares constituting such decrease shall resume the status that they had prior to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such series.”
Purpose of Authorizing Shares of Preferred Stock
The Board believes that having authorized shares of preferred stock available for issuance in the future should give the Company greater flexibility to raise essential additional capital for the Company without the expense and delay of a special shareholders’ meeting. Notwithstanding, the issuance of shares of preferred stock having special voting provisions could alter the control of the Company by the holders of the Company’s shares of common stock. Although such issuance of preferred shares with respect to future financings and acquisitions would dilute existing shareholders if the shares are convertible into shares of common shares, the Board believes that such transactions would increase the value of the Company to its shareholders. In addition, by delegating to the Company’s board of directors the right to designate and issue from time to time, in one or more series, shares of Preferred Stock par value $0.001 subject to such designations and powers, preferences and rights, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof hereinafter adopted by the Company’s board of directors and to specifically delineate right of the Company’s board of directors to issue shares of Common and Preferred Stock for such consideration as may be determined by the Company’s board of directors and to issue rights or options to acquire such shares on terms and conditions to be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors gives the Board the flexibility to act quickly in response to various business opportunities, without the expense and delay of calling a special shareholders’ meeting.
At this time, the Company is merely authorizing the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock par value $0.001. Because it does not have any specific plans, proposals or arrangements to issue any of the
shares of preferred stock, the Company has not designated any specific series of Preferred Stock which have specific rights and preferences. It is assumed that if any when such designation takes place, the applicable Certificate of Designation(s) approved by the Company’s Board of Directors will define, if applicable, the dividend rights, terms of conversion, redemption provisions, voting rights, liquidation rights; preemption rights; any restriction on alienability of the securities, any provision discriminating against any existing or prospective holder of such securities as a result of such security holder owning a substantial amount of securities together with such other and further matters as the Board of Directors, in their sole discretion shall determine.
The specific terms and conditions of the preferred stock being authorized cannot be stated or estimated at this time because no offering thereof is contemplated in the proximate future. Notwithstanding, no further authorization by shareholders for the issuance thereof is necessary and the terms of the preferred shares being authorized, when designated and issued, including dividend or interest rates, conversion prices, voting rights, redemption prices, maturity dates, and similar matters will be determined solely by the Board of Directors.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Authorizing Shares of Preferred Stock
There are certain advantages and disadvantages of voting for the authorization of shares of preferred stock. The advantages include:
| |
· | The ability to raise capital by issuing preferred stock under possible financing transactions, if any. |
| |
· | To have shares of preferred stock available to pursue business expansion opportunities, if any. |
The disadvantages include:
| |
· | Dilution to the existing shareholders, which could cause the market price of our stock to decline. |
| |
· | The issuance of shares of preferred stock having special voting provisions could alter the control of the Company by the holders of the Company’s shares of common stock. |
| |
· | The issuance of authorized but unissued preferred stock could be used to deter a potential takeover of the Company that may otherwise be beneficial to shareholders by diluting the shares held by a potential suitor or issuing shares to a stockholder that will vote in accordance with the desires of the Board, at that time. A takeover may be beneficial to independent shareholders because, among other reasons, a potential suitor may offer such shareholders a premium for their shares of stock compared to the then-existing market price. The Company does not have any plans or proposals to adopt provisions or enter into agreements that may have material anti-takeover consequences. |
Anti-Takeover Effects of the Proposed Amendment
Release No. 34-15230 of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission requires disclosure and discussion of the effects of any stockholder proposal that may be used as an anti-takeover device. Although the Company has no intent or plan to employ the additional unissued authorized shares as an anti-takeover device, 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. For example, shares of authorized and unissued common stock could (within the limits imposed by applicable law) be issued in one or more transactions that would discourage persons from attempting to gain control of the Company, by diluting the voting power of shares then outstanding.
Similarly, the issuance of additional shares to certain persons allied with the Company’s management could have the effect of making it more difficult to remove the Company’s current management by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to cause such removal. Each of these, together with other anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and provided by Nevada law, could potentially limit the opportunity for the Company’s stockholders to dispose of their stock at a premium.
The Board of Directors is not aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of the Company, and this proposal is not being presented with the intent that it be utilized as a type of anti-takeover device or to secure management’s positions within the Company.
Recommendation of the Board of Directors
Our Board unanimously recommended the approval of the proposed amendment of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Common Stock
The Company has authorized capital of 100,000,000 shares of capital stock, all of which is designated Common Stock par value $.001. As of May 1, 2014, the Company had 33,279,748 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.
Each holder of shares of Common Stock par value $0.001 shall be entitled to as many votes as shall equal the number of shares of Company Common Stock held by the shareholder.
Limitation of Liability; Indemnification
The Company’s Bylaws include an indemnification provision whereby we have agreed to indemnify directors and officers of the Company to the fullest extent possible from and against any and all claims of any type arising from or related to future acts or omissions as a director or officer of the Company.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Anti-Takeover Effects Of Provisions In Charter Documents
Pursuant to the terms of our Bylaws, our authorized but unissued common and preferred shares are available for future issuance without having to obtain shareholders’ approval. These additional shares may be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes including but not limited to future public or direct offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee incentive plans. The issuance of such shares may also be used to deter a potential takeover of the Company that may otherwise be beneficial to shareholders by diluting the shares held by a potential suitor or issuing shares to a stockholder that will vote in accordance with the Board’s desires. A takeover may be beneficial to shareholders because, among other reasons, a potential suitor may offer shareholders a premium for their shares of stock compared to the then-existing market price.
