Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On November 1, 2019, Innovative Payment Solutions, Inc. (formerly known as QPAGOS, the “Company”) filed an amendment to its articles of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to change its corporate name change from “QPAGOS” to “Innovative Payment Solutions, Inc.” (the “Amended Certificate”). Also on November 1, 2019, immediately following the effectiveness of the Amended Certificate, the Company filed a Certificate of Change with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada (the “Certificate of Change”) to effect a reverse split of Company’s common stock at a ratio of 1-for-10 (the “Reverse Stock Split”) , effective at 12:01 am on November 1, 2019. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, each ten (10) pre-split shares of common stock outstanding will automatically combine into one (1) new share of common stock without any action on the part of the holders, and the number of outstanding shares common stock will be reduced from 320,477,867 shares to 32,047,787 shares (subject to rounding of fractional shares).
No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares because they hold a number of pre-reverse stock split shares of the Company’s common stock not evenly divisible by 10, will, in lieu of a fractional share, be entitled the number of shares rounded up to the nearest whole share. The Company will issue one whole share of the post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock to any stockholder who otherwise would have received a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
The above description of the Amended Certificate and Certificate of Change and the Reverse Stock Split is a summary of the material terms thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended Certificate and Certificate of Change as filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on October 31, 2019, a copy of each of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 3.2, respectively, and is incorporated herein by reference.
