Item 5.03 Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

 

On September 27, 2022, Charge Enterprises, Inc. (sometimes referred to herein as we,” us,”our” or similar terms), filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”), which was approved by our stockholders at our 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on September 22, 2022 (the “Annual Meeting”) and by our Board of Directors.

 

The Certificate of Amendment effects two changes to our Certificate of Incorporation.

 

First, the Certificate of Amendment increased our authorized preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, from 10,000,000 shares to 20,000,000 shares.

 

Second, the Certificate of Amendment changed our Board of Directors into a classified board, effective as of our annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2023, into three classes with staggered three-year terms, designated as follows:

 

 

·

Class I, with their initial terms expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2023 and members of such class serving successive three-year terms thereafter;

 

 

 

 

·

Class II, with their initial terms expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2024 and members of such class serving successive three-year terms thereafter; and

 

 

 

 

·

Class III, with their initial terms expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2025 and members of such class serving successive three-year terms thereafter.

 

The members of our Board of Directors elected at the Annual Meeting shall continue to serve their current terms until the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2023, at which point the classified board structure described above would go into effect, or until their respective successors are elected and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

 

Our Board of Directors is authorized to assign directors then in office to Class I, Class II and Class III prior to our annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2023. Subject to the rights of the holders of any preferred stock then outstanding, the directors assigned to Class I, Class II and Class III would serve for the terms applicable to their respective classes or until their respective successors are elected and qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

 

This summary of the Certificate of Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

On September 22, 2022, we held our 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) pursuant to a Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 4, 2022 (the “Proxy Statement”). Descriptions of each of the proposals voted upon at the Annual Meeting are contained in the Proxy Statement. At the close of business on August 1, 2022, the record date of the Annual Meeting, we had 206,157,652 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The holders of a total of 143,208,891 shares of common stock were present at the Annual Meeting, either in person or by proxy, which total constituted a quorum for purposes of the Annual Meeting.
