Common Stock

 

Voting Rights. Each share of our common stock is entitled to one vote on all stockholder matters. Shares of our common stock do not possess any cumulative voting rights.

 

Except for the election of directors, if a quorum is present, an action on a matter is approved if it receives the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of capital stock present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the matter, unless otherwise required by applicable law, Nevada law, our Articles of Incorporation, as amended or Bylaws, as amended. The election of directors will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast in respect of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote, meaning that the nominees with the greatest number of votes cast, even if less than a majority, will be elected. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of common stock are subject to, and may be impacted by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we have designated, or may designate and issue in the future.

Anti-Takeover Provisions Under The Nevada Revised Statutes

 

Business Combinations

 



Sections
78.411 to 78.444 of the Nevada revised statues (the “NRS”) prohibit a Nevada corporation from engaging in a
“combination” with an “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that such
person becomes an interested stockholder and place certain restrictions on such combinations even after the expiration of the three-year
period. With certain exceptions, an interested stockholder is a person or group that owns 10% or more of the corporation’s
outstanding voting power (including stock with respect to which the person has voting rights and any rights to acquire stock pursuant
to an option, warrant, agreement, arrangement, or understanding or upon the exercise of conversion or exchange rights) or is an
affiliate or associate of the corporation and was the owner of 10% or more of such voting stock at any time within the previous
three years.





 

A Nevada corporation may elect not to be governed by Sections 78.411 to 78.444 by a provision in its articles of incorporation. We have such a provision in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, pursuant to which we have elected to opt out of Sections 78.411 to 78.444; therefore, these sections do not apply to us.

 

Control Shares

 



Nevada
law also seeks to impede “unfriendly“ corporate takeovers by providing in Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 of the
NRS that an “acquiring person” shall only obtain voting rights in the “control shares” purchased
by such person to the extent approved by the other stockholders at a meeting. With certain exceptions, an acquiring person is one
who acquires or offers to acquire a “controlling interest” in the corporation, defined as one-fifth or more
of the voting power. Control shares include not only shares acquired or offered to be acquired in connection with the acquisition
of a controlling interest, but also all shares acquired by the acquiring person within the preceding 90 days. The statute covers
not only the acquiring person but also any persons acting in association with the acquiring person.





 

A Nevada corporation may elect to opt out of the provisions of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 of the NRS. We have a provision in our Articles of Incorporation pursuant to which we have elected to opt out of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793; therefore, these sections do not apply to us.

 

Removal of Directors

 

Section 78.335 of the NRS provides that 2/3rds of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company are required to remove a Director from office. As such, it may be more difficult for stockholders to remove Directors due to the fact the NRS requires greater than majority approval of the stockholders for such removal.
