2021 Nevada Revised Statutes|Chapter 78 - Private Corporations|NRS 78.390 - Amendment of articles after issuance of stock: Procedure.

  1. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 77.340 or 78.209 or chapter 92A of NRS, every amendment to the articles of incorporation must be made in the following manner:  (a) The board of directors must adopt a resolution setting forth the amendment proposed and submit the proposed amendment to the stockholders for approval.  (b) If stockholders holding shares in the corporation representing at least a majority of the voting power, or such greater proportion of the voting power as may be required in the case of a vote by classes or series, as provided in subsections 2 and 4, or as may be required by the provisions of the articles of incorporation, have approved the amendment, an officer of the corporation shall sign a certificate setting forth the amendment, or setting forth the articles of incorporation as amended, and the vote by which the amendment was adopted.  (c) The certificate so signed must be filed with the Secretary of State.  2. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, if any proposed amendment would adversely alter or change any preference or any relative or other right given to any class or series of outstanding shares, then, in addition to any approval otherwise required, the amendment must be approved by the holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of each class or series adversely affected by the amendment regardless of limitations or restrictions on the voting power thereof. The amendment does not have to be approved by the holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of each class or series whose preference or rights are adversely affected by the amendment if the articles of incorporation specifically deny the right to vote on such an amendment.  3. Provision may be made in the articles of incorporation requiring, in the case of any specified amendments, approval by a larger proportion of the voting power of stockholders than that required by this section.  4. Different series of the same class of shares do not constitute different classes of shares for the purpose of voting by classes except when the series is adversely affected by an amendment in a different manner than other series of the same class.  5. The resolution of the stockholders approving the proposed amendment may provide that at any time before the effective date of the amendment, notwithstanding approval of the proposed amendment by the stockholders, the board of directors may, by resolution, abandon the proposed amendment without further action by the stockholders.  6. A certificate filed pursuant to subsection 1 is effective at the time of the filing of the certificate with the Secretary of State or upon a later date and time as specified in the certificate, which date must not be more than 90 days after the date on which the certificate is filed. If a certificate filed pursuant to subsection 1 specifies a later effective date but does not specify an effective time, the certificate is effective at 12:01 a.m. in the Pacific time zone on the specified later date.  7. If a certificate filed pursuant to subsection 1 specifies a later effective date and if the resolution of the stockholders approving the proposed amendment provides that the board of directors may abandon the proposed amendment pursuant to subsection 5, the board of directors may terminate the effectiveness of the certificate by resolution and by filing a certificate of termination with the Secretary of State that:  (a) Is filed before the effective date specified in the certificate filed with the Secretary of State pursuant to subsection 1;  (b) Identifies the certificate being terminated;  (c) States that, pursuant to the resolution of the stockholders, the board of directors is authorized to terminate the effectiveness of the certificate;  (d) States that the effectiveness of the certificate has been terminated;  (e) Is signed by an officer of the corporation; and  (f) Is accompanied by a filing fee of $175.
