Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On September 29, 2021, AiAdvertising, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a certificate of withdrawal with the Secretary of State of Nevada, to withdraw the Company’s existing certificate of designation of Series H Preferred Stock, filed a certificate of designation for a new series of Series H Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of Nevada, and issued 1,000 shares of Series H Preferred Stock to Andrew Van Noy, the Company’s chief executive officer, for services rendered.
Pursuant to the certificate of designation for the new series of Series H Preferred Stock, the Company designated 1,000 shares of preferred stock as Series H Preferred Stock. The Series H Preferred Stock is not convertible into common stock, and does not have any dividend rights or any liquidation preference. The Series H Preferred Stock entitles the holder to 51% of the voting power of the Company’s stockholders. The Series H Preferred Stock will automatically be redeemed by the Company at the par value of $0.001 per share, on the first to occur of the following events: (i) sixty days after the effective date of the certificate of designation, (ii) the date that Andrew Van Noy ceases to serve as officer, director or consultant of the Company, or (iii) on the date that the Company’s shares of common stock first trade on any national securities exchange and such listing is conditioned upon the elimination of the preferential voting rights.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On September 30, 2021, Andrew Van Noy, the holder of the majority of the voting power of the shareholders of the Company, and the Company’s chief executive officer, approved by written consent an action to authorize the Company’s board of directors to amend the Company’s articles of incorporation, to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock by a ratio of not less than 1-for-100 and not more than 1-for-1,000 at any time prior to the one year anniversary of filing the definitive information statement with respect to the reverse split, with the board of directors having the discretion as to whether or not the reverse split is to be effected, and with the exact ratio of any reverse split to be set at a whole number within the above range as determined by the board in its discretion.
