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

 

As set forth below in Item 5.07, on October 22, 2019, the stockholders of NuZee, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a proposal granting the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) discretionary authority to file an amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the “Articles”), which amends Section 1 of the Articles to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, par value $.00001 (the “Common Stock”), at any ratio from 1-for-3 to 1-for-5 at the Board’s discretion. On October 22, 2019, the Board approved a 1-for-3 reverse stock split of the Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Accordingly, each holder of Common Stock will receive one share of Common Stock for every three shares such stockholder held immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split. The Certificate of Amendment became effective upon acceptance of the Company’s filing of the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of Nevada. 

 

The above description of the Certificate of Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.
