Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
 
Effective September 21, 2018, New Age Beverages Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Exchange Agreement with its Chief Executive Officer, Brent Willis and its Chairman, Neil Fallon pursuant to which the officers exchanged an aggregate of 6,900,000 shares of common stock which they owned for an aggregate of 6,900 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series C Convertible Preferred Stock described below.
 
The foregoing description of the Exchange Agreement is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by Exhibit 10.1 attached hereto.
 
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
 
On September 20, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the creation of a class of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”). An amendment to the Articles of Incorporation which sets forth the rights and preferences of the Series C Preferred Stock was filed with the Washington Secretary of State on September 21, 2018 (the “Series C Designation”).
 
Pursuant to the Series C Designation, 7,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock was designated Series C Preferred Stock. Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends equal, on an as-if-converted basis, to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the Company’s common stock par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) when, as and if paid on shares of Common Stock. Each holder of outstanding Series C Preferred Stock is entitled to vote equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which each share of the Series C Preferred Stock is convertible. Holders of Series C Preferred Stock are entitled, upon liquidation of the Company, to receive the same amount that a holder of Series C Preferred Stock would receive if the Series C Preferred Stock were fully converted into Common Stock.
 
On the date on which an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, to increase the Corporation’s authorized shares of Common Stock has been filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Washington, each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall convert automatically into 1,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock.
 
The foregoing description of the Series C Preferred Stock, and the Series C Designation is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by Exhibit 3.1 attached hereto.
