On January 6, 2022 Data443 Risk Mitigation, Inc. (the “Company”) was advised by the Nevada Secretary of State that it had accepted the Company’s filing of a Certificate of Change Pursuant to NRS 78.209, with a filing and effective date of January 5, 2022 (the “Certificate”). The Certificate (i) reduced the number of authorized shares of common stock by a ratio of 1-for-8, resulting in one hundred twenty five million (125,000,000) authorized shares of common stock (the “Share Reduction”); and, (ii) effected a reverse stock split of its issued common stock in the ratio of 1-for-8 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Both actions were previously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The preferred stock of the Company was not changed.

Reason for the Reverse Stock Split

The Reverse Stock Split was effected to enable the Company to expeditiously meet the minimum price per share requirement for listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, to which the Company has submitted an application to list its common stock and warrants.

Effects of the Reverse Stock Split

Effective Date; Symbol; CUSIP Number. The Company’s application to FINRA in order to effect the Reverse Split was approved on March 7, 2022 and the Reverse Stock Split was effected on March 8, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), at which time the shares of the Company’s common stock began trading on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis. As of the Effective Date, the new CUSIP Number for the Company’s common stock is 23804G 302. Per FINRA requirement, the Company’s stock symbol was temporarily changed to “ATDSD” on March 8, 2022, and will revert back to “ATDS” 20 trading days thereafter.

Split Adjustment. On the Effective Date, the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock held by each stockholder will be automatically converted into the number of whole shares of common stock equal to the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock held by such stockholder immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split, divided by eight.

No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares will be issued, and no cash or other consideration will be paid. Instead, 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.

Non-Certificated Shares; Certificated Shares. Stockholders who are holding their shares in electronic form at brokerage firms do not have to take any action as the effect of the Reverse Stock Split will automatically be reflected in their brokerage accounts.

Stockholders holding paper certificates may (but are not required to) send the certificates to the Company’s transfer agent at the address given below. The transfer agent will issue a new share certificate reflecting the terms of the Reverse Stock Split to each requesting stockholder.

State Filing. The Share Reduction and the Reverse Stock Split were effected by the Company filing the Certificate with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on January 5, 2022. Under Nevada law, neither (i) an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation; nor (ii) approval of the stockholders of the Company, is required in connection with the Share Reduction and the Reverse Stock Split. A copy of the Certificate is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

No Stockholder Approval Required. Under Nevada law, because the Share Reduction and the Reverse Stock Split were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company in accordance with Nevada Revised Statute Section 78.207, no stockholder approval was required. Nevada Revised Statute Section 78.207 provides that the Company may effect the Share Reduction and the Reverse Stock Split without stockholder approval if (i) both the Share Reduction and the Reverse Stock Split are proportionally reduced in the same amount; (ii) the Reverse Stock Split does not adversely affect any other class of stock of the Company; and, (iii) the Company does not pay money or issue scrip to stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. As described herein, the Company has complied with these requirements.

Capitalization. Prior to the filing of the Certificate, the Company was authorized to issue 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock. As a result of the Share Reduction and the Reverse Stock Split, the Company is authorized to issue 125,000,000 shares of common stock. The Company’s authorized shares of common stock were reduced in the same ratio (1-for-8) as its outstanding common stock was reduced. While the following numbers may change as of the Effective Date, as of this date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, there were 981,149 shares of common stock outstanding. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, there will be approximately 122,644 shares of common stock outstanding (subject to adjustment due to the effect of rounding fractional shares into whole shares). The Reverse Stock Split will not have any effect on the stated par value of the common stock.

The Reverse Stock Split does not affect the Company’s authorized preferred stock. After the Reverse Stock Split, the Company’s authorized preferred Stock of 337,500 shares remained unchanged. Additionally, the Reverse Stock Split will not affect the par value of the preferred stock, or previously designated series of preferred stock.

Each stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company and proportional voting power remains unchanged as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, except for minor changes and adjustments that will result from rounding fractional shares into whole shares. The rights and privileges of the holders of shares of common stock will be substantially unaffected by the Reverse Stock Split.

All options, warrants and convertible securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split (to the extent they do not provide otherwise) will be appropriately adjusted by dividing the number of shares of common stock into which the options, warrants and convertible securities are exercisable or convertible by eight and multiplying the exercise or conversion price thereof by eight, as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
