Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

On February 21, 2023, Unrivaled Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Certificate of Designation of Rights, Privileges, Preferences, and Restrictions of Series N Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. The Certificate of Designation became effective upon filing on February 22, 2023. The following is a summary of the principal terms of the Certificate of Designation:

 

Authorized Shares

 

The number of authorized shares of Series N Preferred Stock is 2,500,000 shares.

 

Dividends

 

The holders of the Series N Preferred Stock do not have any preferential dividend rights and shall be entitled to receive dividends, if any, only if, when, and as declared by the Company’s board of directors in its sole and absolute discretion.

 

Voting Rights

 

Each share of Series N Preferred Stock shall have the right to take action by written consent or vote in a number equal to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock into which such shares of Series N Preferred Stock are then convertible. These voting rights may be exercised by vote at an annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company or at a special meeting of the stockholders of the Company or by written consent of the holders of Series N Preferred Stock. Except as otherwise required by law or by the Company’s articles of incorporation of which the Certificate of Designation is a part, the holders of shares of the Company’s common stock and shares of Series N Preferred Stock shall vote together and not as separate classes.

 

Conversion

 

Each share of Series N Preferred Stock is convertible into one hundred shares of Common Stock, in the manner set forth in this paragraph and as further described in the Certificate of Designation. Each share of Series N Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into one hundred fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock on the first anniversary of the date on which the holder’s shares of Series N Preferred Stock were issued.

 

Liquidation Preference

 

Upon any Liquidation Event (as defined in the Certificate of Designation), before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock ranking junior to the Series N Preferred Stock, the holders of the Series N Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company an amount equal to an aggregate of $1.00 allocated among all of the then-issued and outstanding shares of Series N Preferred Stock (the “Preference Value”). After the payment of the Preference Value of the shares of the Series N Preferred Stock as set forth in the Certificate of Designation, the remaining assets of the Company legally available for distribution, if any, shall be distributed ratably to the holders of the Company’s common stock and other classes or series of the Company’s capital stock in the manner provided by law or the charter documents of the Company.

 

Trading Market

 

There is no established trading market for any of the Series N Preferred Stock, and the Company does not expect a market to develop. The Company does not intend to apply for a listing for any of the Series N Preferred Stock on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Series N Preferred Stock will be limited.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Certificate of Designation and the Series N Preferred Stock do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Designation, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
