Item 5.03
Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.
On January 6, 2016, we filed a Certificate of Amendment 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 20 shares outstanding prior to the effective date of the reverse stock split. The reverse stock split became effective on January 11, 2016. The total number of authorized shares of common stock will remain unchanged at its current total of 200,000,000 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 Amendment is attached to this current report as Exhibit 3.1.
On January 11, 2016, we issued a press release announcing the reverse stock split was effective as of January 11, 2016. The full text of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report.
