Item 3.03 Material Modifications to Rights of Security Holders.
The disclosure set forth under Items 5.03 and 8.01 below is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
China Information Technology, Inc. (the Company) has filed a Certificate of Change pursuant to Section 78.209 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the Certificate of Change) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to effect a one (1)-for-two (2) reverse stock split (the Reverse Split) of the authorized and issued and outstanding Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (Common Stock), of the Company. Pursuant to the filing of the Certificate of Change, the Reverse Split became effective after the close of trading on March 1, 2012 (the Record Date).
The Reverse Split was duly approved by the Board of Directors of the Company without shareholder approval, in accordance with the authority conferred by Section 78.207 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. The Certificate of Change effected the Reverse Split at 5:00 p.m., Pacific Standard Time, on the Record Date and was deemed to amend the Companys Articles of Incorporation to decrease the authorized number of shares of the Companys Common Stock from two hundred million (200,000,000) shares to one hundred million (100,000,000) shares.
Pursuant to the Reverse Split, holders of the Companys Common Stock will be deemed to hold one (1) whole post-split share of the Companys Common Stock for every two (2) whole shares of the Companys issued and outstanding Common Stock held immediately prior to 5:00 p.m., Pacific Standard Time, on the Record Date. No fractional shares of the Registrants Common Stock will be issued in connection with the Reverse Split. Shareholders who are entitled to a fractional post-split share will receive in lieu thereof one (1) whole post-split share.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
At the market opening on March 2, 2012, the Company's Common Stock began trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market on a split-adjusted basis. The Companys Common Stock will continue to trade under the symbol CNIT. The Companys common stock will trade under a new CUSIP number. The CUSIP number of the post-Reverse Split Common Stock is 16950L 208. Following the effectiveness of the reverse stock split the Company has approximately 27.6 million shares issued and outstanding.
On March 1, 2012, the Company issued a press release announcing the Reverse Split. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
