Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On October 17, 2005, Vyrex Corporation (the “Registrant”) completed the steps necessary to change the Registrant’s domicile from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware effective October 17, 2005.

 

To effect the change in the Registrant’s domicile, the Registrant’s predecessor, Vyrex Corporation, a Nevada corporation (“Vyrex Nevada”), was merged with and into Vyrex (Delaware) Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Vyrex Delaware”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Vyrex Nevada, on October 17, 2005, by filing a Certificate of Merger with the Delaware Secretary of State and Articles of Merger with the Nevada Secretary of State, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into by and between Vyrex Nevada and Vyrex Delaware on October 17, 2005.

 

Following the merger, (i) the separate existence of Vyrex Nevada ceased; (ii) Vyrex Delaware succeeded to the assets and liabilities of Vyrex Nevada and will continue the business of Vyrex Nevada under the name, Vyrex Corporation; (iii) the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Vyrex Delaware became the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Registrant; (iv) each share of Vyrex Nevada common stock, $0.001 par value per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the merger was automatically converted into and became 0.12 of a share of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Registrant; and (v) each share of common stock of Vyrex Delaware outstanding immediately prior to the merger was cancelled. The merger did not result in any change in the business, management, board of directors, fiscal year, assets, liabilities or location of the principal office of the Registrant.

 

The Board of Directors and the stockholders of each of Vyrex Nevada and Vyrex Delaware approved the merger and change in domicile. Further details are contained in the Definitive Proxy Statement of Vyrex Nevada filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on September 13, 2005 (“Proxy Statement”).

 

Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

 

Concurrent with the merger and change in domicile from Nevada to Delaware, the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Vyrex Delaware became the new Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Registrant. The adoption of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Vyrex Delaware effectively increased the authorized capital stock of the Registrant from 60,000,000 (50,000,000 of common stock and 10,000,000 of preferred stock) to 250,000,000 (200,000,000 of common stock and 50,000,000 of preferred stock), and the par value of the Registrant’s capital stock changed from $0.001 per share to $0.0001 per share. The Registrant’s new Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws are filed herewith as exhibits to this Current Report. Additional information regarding the differences between the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Vyrex Nevada and the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Registrant is set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report and the Proxy Statement.
