On December 13, 2011, Victory Energy Corporation (the “Company”) filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Articles”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. The Amended and Restated Articles amend several provisions of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, which include: (1) effecting a 50-to-1 reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”); and (2) increasing the number of authorized shares which the Company has authority to issue to 50,000,000 shares, consisting of 47,500,000 shares of common stock having a par value of $0.001 per share and 2,500,000 shares of preferred stock having a par value of $0.001 per share.
On January 12, 2012, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority approved the Amended and Restated Articles and the Amended and Restated Articles became effective at 7:00 a.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on January 13, 2012. Pursuant to and upon the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Articles, each 50 shares of common stock of the Company issued and outstanding at the time of such effectiveness were combined into one share of common stock of the Company and the total number of shares of common stock outstanding was reduced from approximately 382,307,294 shares to approximately 7,646,146 shares.
The Company has retained Transfer Online, Inc. (“Transfer Online”) to act as exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split. Transfer Online will manage the exchange of old, pre-Reverse Stock Split shares for new post-Reverse Stock Split Shares. Stockholders of record as of the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split will receive a letter of transmittal providing instructions for the exchange of their shares. Stockholders who hold their shares in “street name” will be contacted by their banks or brokers with any instructions. For further information, stockholders and securities brokers should contact Transfer Online at 512 SE Salmon Street
Portland, OR 97214, or via phone at (+1) 503-227-2950.
A copy of the Amended and Restated Articles was filed with the Company’s Definitive Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 18, 2011, 2011, and made available to the Company’s stockholders on or about November 18, 2011.
