ITEM 5.03                      AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS; CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR.
 
On March 28, 2011, Solar Energy Initiatives, Inc. (the “Company”) amended its certificate of incorporation to increase its authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 750,000,000 (the “Increase Amendment”).  In addition, the Company authorized 10,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock (the “Preferred Shares”).  The Increase Amendment and the Preferred Shares were approved by the board of directors as well as the shareholders holding a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock pursuant to a written consent dated March 16, 2011.  The Board of Directors may determine to issue Preferred Shares.  If issued, the Preferred Shares may be created and issued in one or more series and with such designations, rights, preferences and restrictions as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution(s) providing for the creation and issuance of such Preferred Shares.  If Preferred Shares are issued and the Company is subsequently liquidated or dissolved, the preferred stockholders may have preferential rights to receive a liquidating distribution for their shares prior to any distribution to common shareholders.  Although we have no present intent to do so, we could issue Preferred Shares with such terms and privileges that a third party acquisition of the Company could be difficult or impossible.
