Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders
As previously announced
in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 4, 2017, at a special meeting of stockholders of Net Element, Inc. (the “Company”)
held on October 3, 2017, the Company’s stockholders, by an affirmative vote of at least a majority of the Company’s
issued and outstanding shares of capital stock, approved a proposal authorizing the Company’s Board of Directors, in its
discretion, to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock (the “Common Stock”),
at any ratio not less than 1-for-10 and not greater than 1-for-30 (the “Reverse Stock Split”).
On October 3, 2017,
the Board of Directors approved the Reverse Stock Split with a ratio of 1-for-10. On October 4, 2017, the Company is filing a Certificate
of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Amendment”),
with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the Common Stock effective
as of 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time on October 5, 2017. As a result of the Reverse Stock split, every ten shares of the Company’s
Common Stock will be automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock, without
any change in the par value per share. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. Any fractional
shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the nearest whole share.
Commencing on October
5, 2017, trading of the Company’s Common Stock will continue on the NASDAQ Capital Market on a reverse stock split-adjusted
basis. The Company’s trading symbol will remain “NETE.” The new CUSIP number for the Company’s Common Stock
following the Reverse Stock Split is 64111R300.
The foregoing is only
a brief description of the terms of the Certificate of Amendment, does not purport to be a complete description of the Certificate
of Amendment, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this
Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or
Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
The information set
forth in Item 3.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On October 4, 2017,
the Company issued a press release announcing the Reverse Stock Split. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit
99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
