AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO DECREASE

AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK TO 750,000,000

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation currently authorize the Company to issue 3,005,000,000 shares of all classes of capital stock consisting of 3,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value. As of the record date, 104,277,112 shares of Common Stock are outstanding and no shares of preferred stock are outstanding.

The Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment will reduce the total number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is authorized to issue from 3,000,000,000 to 750,000,000. The Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment will not have any effect on the rights of existing stockholders and the par value per share of Common Stock will remain $0.001. The Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment will not change the number of authorized shares of preferred stock.

The Certificate of Amendment provides that paragraph A of Article IV is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“The total number of shares of all classes of stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 755,000,000, consisting of 750,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”).

The Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment is anticipated to decrease the amount of annual franchise taxes that the Company is required to pay to the State of Delaware. An additional purpose of the Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment is to reduce the total number of shares that we are authorized to issue so that we do not have what some stockholders might view as an unreasonably high number of authorized shares of Common Stock that are unissued or reserved for issuance.

The proposed Certificate of Amendment will become effective when it has been accepted for filing by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which we expect to accomplish as soon as possible.

Reasons for the Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment

The Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment is anticipated to decrease the amount of annual franchise taxes that the Company is required to pay to the State of Delaware. An additional purpose of the Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment is to reduce the total number of shares that we are authorized to issue so that we do not have what some stockholders might view as an unreasonably high number of authorized shares of Common Stock that are unissued or reserved for issuance.

Effects of the Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment; Risks Associated with the Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment

The Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment will reduce the total number of shares of Common Stock that we are authorized to issue from 3,000,000,000 to 750,000,000. The Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment will not have any effect on the rights of existing stockholders and the par value per share of Common Stock will remain $0.001. The Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment will not have any impact on the total number of shares of preferred stock that the Company is authorized to issue, which will remain at 5,000,000 shares.

The decrease in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock would result in fewer shares of authorized but unissued Common Stock being available for future issuance for various purposes, including raising capital or making acquisitions. However, we currently expect that the amount of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock available for future issuances following the Decreased Authorized Shares Amendment will be sufficient for our future needs.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth information about beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of June 22, 2021, the record date, by (i) each stockholder that has indicated in public filings that the stockholder beneficially owns more than five percent of the Common Stock, (ii) each of the Company’s directors and named officers and (iii) all directors and officers as a group. Except as otherwise noted, each person listed below, either alone or together with members of the person’s family sharing the same household, had, to our knowledge, sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares listed next to the person’s name.

Delivery of Documents to Security Holders Sharing an Address

If hard copies of the materials are requested, we will send only one Information Statement and other corporate mailings to stockholders who share a single address unless we received contrary instructions from any stockholder at that address. This practice, known as “householding”, is designed to reduce our printing and postage costs. However, the Company will deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of this Information Statement to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of this Information Statement was delivered. You may make such a written or oral request by sending a written notification stating (a) your name, (b) your shared address, and (c) the address to which the Company should direct the additional copy of this Information Statement, to the Company at 2150 Cabot Boulevard West, Suite B, Langhorne, PA 19067, Attention: Corporate Secretary, or by telephone at 215-702-8550. Additionally, if current stockholders with a shared address received multiple copies of this Information Statement or other corporate mailings and would prefer the Company to mail one copy of future mailings to stockholders at the shared address, notification of such request may also be made in the same manner by mail or telephone to the Company’s principal executive offices.

Interests of Certain Persons in Matters To Be Acted Upon

None.
