Authorized Share Capital

 

The Company amended its articles of incorporation on January 9, 2019 to increase the authorized share capital to 400 million shares of common stock.

 

Series X Convertible Preferred Shares

 

The Company had no shares, par value $0.0001, of Series X Convertible Preferred Shares, issued and outstanding at December 31, 2020 and 2019. Series X Convertible Preferred shares have the rights to receive dividends or any distributions on a “as-converted basis” and also each Series X Convertible Preferred stockholder held the right to 1 vote relative to each stockholder of common stock, on a “as-converted basis”. Each Series X Convertible Preferred share is convertible into 15 shares of common stock.

 

On February 28, 2019, the 1,000,000 Series X Preferred Shares automatically converted into 15,000,000 shares of common stock.

 

Preferred Stock Designations

 

On March 20, 2020, FaceBank Pre-Merger amended its Articles of Incorporation to withdraw, cancel and terminate the previously-filed (i) Certificate of Designation of with respect to 5,000,000 shares of its Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, (ii) Certificate of Designation with respect to 1,000,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, (iii) Certificate of Designation with respect to 41,000,000 shares of its Series C Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share and (iv) Certificate of Designation with respect to 1,000,000 shares of its Series X Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

On March 20, 2020, in connection with the Merger, FaceBank Pre-Merger filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to designate 35,800,000 of its authorized preferred stock as “Series AA Convertible Preferred Stock” pursuant to a Certificate of Designation of Series AA Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series AA Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation”). The Series AA Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series AA Preferred Stock”) has no liquidation preference. The Series AA Preferred Stock is entitled to receive dividends and other distributions as and when paid on the Common Stock on an as converted basis. Each share of Series AA Preferred Stock is initially convertible into two shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment as provided in the Series AA Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation and shall only be convertible immediately following the sale of such shares on an arms’-length basis either pursuant to an exemption from registration under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act or pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. Each share of Series AA Preferred Stock shall have 0.8 votes per share (the “Voting Rate”) on any matter submitted to the holders of the Common Stock for a vote and shall vote together with the Common Stock on such matters for as long as the Series AA Preferred Stock is outstanding. The Voting Rate shall be subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock combinations, recapitalizations reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events.
