The Nevada Proposed amendment to Article 4 of the certificate of incorporation aims to authorize the issuance of preferred stock. This amendment is crucial for businesses seeking to raise capital or restructure their financial structure. By allowing the issuance of preferred stock, companies gain flexibility in attracting investors and making strategic financial decisions. Preferred stock is a type of equity that grants certain preferential rights to its holders compared to common stockholders. These rights may include dividend priority, priority in case of liquidation, and voting rights. There are several types of preferred stock that companies can choose based on their specific needs. They include: 1. Cumulative Preferred Stock: This type of preferred stock ensures that if a company fails to pay dividends in a year, they accumulate and must be paid before any dividends are distributed to common stockholders. 2. Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock: Unlike cumulative stock, this type does not accumulate unpaid dividends. If the company fails to pay dividends in a year, they are not carried forward. 3. Convertible Preferred Stock: Convertible preferred stock gives stockholders the option to convert their shares into a predetermined number of common stock shares at a specified conversion price. This provides an opportunity for preferred stockholders to benefit from potential future growth in the company. 4. Participating Preferred Stock: With participating preferred stock, holders receive both their fixed preference and a share of the remaining profits with common stockholders during a liquidation event. 5. Non-Participating Preferred Stock: Non-participating preferred stockholders only receive a fixed preference during a liquidation event and do not participate in any remaining profits with common stockholders.
