ABOUT
THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT
What
is the Purpose of this Information Statement?
This
information statement is being furnished to you pursuant to Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to notify all Stockholders
of Common Stock on the Record Date (Stockholders of Record) that the following corporate actions voted by the Majority Shareholders and
approved by the Board of Directors on April 24, 2023 are now in force. These decisions are:

Approval of the revised and restated Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation attached hereto as Appendix A.

Approval of the revised and restated Bylaws of the Corporation attached hereto as Appendix B.

is/are elected and qualified.
●
The appointment of BF Borgers CPA PC, as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2023 fiscal year.
As
a matter of regulatory compliance, we are sending you this definitive Information Statement which describes the purpose and effect of
the above actions. Your consent to the above action is not required and is not being solicited in connection with these actions. This
Information Statement is intended to provide our Stockholders information required by the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 as well as generally to keep our Stockholders informed.
Why
is no formal Stockholders’ Meeting be held?
In
accordance with applicable rules and regulations and our Bylaws dated December 8, 2021:
(1) |
Stockholders
as of the close of business on the Record Date that held in excess of two-thirds (2/3) or 66.6667% of the voting power of the Corporation’s
outstanding shares of Common Stock are required to carry the motions to change the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation
and Bylaws; and |
(2) |
Stockholders
as of the close of business on the Record Date that held in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Corporation’s
outstanding shares of Common Stock are required to carry the motions to elect the directors of the Corporation and to appoint its
auditors; and |
(3) |
any
action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Stockholders may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the
action, a written consent thereto is signed by Stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock of the Corporation. |
On
April 21, 2023, pursuant to the Written Consent signed by Stockholders owning 23,844,448 shares of Common Stock being eighty-three point
eight percent (83.8%) of the 28,446,834 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, all the measures to be placed before the Stockholders
at the 2023 annual general meeting were approved and are now definitive.
FOR
THIS REASON WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY. THE ATTACHED MATERIAL IS FOR INFORMATIONAL
PURPOSES ONLY.
THE
ACTIONS PLACED BEFORE THE SHAREHOLDERS, HAVING EFFECTIVELY BEEN DECIDED BY A MAJORITY OF THE SHAREHOLDERS BY WRITTEN CONSENT, ARE NOW
IMPLEMENTED WITHOUT A SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING FROM THE DATE OF COMMUNICATION OF NOTICE OF THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT.
Why
did I receive a notice in the mail regarding the Internet and email availability of Information Statement materials instead of a full
set of printed materials?
Pursuant
to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) which the Corporation follows voluntarily, we are making this definitive
Information Statement and our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2023 (Annual Report and, together with this Information Statement,
the ‘information statement materials’) available to Stockholders electronically via the Internet and by email.
Stockholders
will receive notification of the availability of the information statement materials and receive the information statement materials
via email or if so requested, printed copies of the information statement materials will be sent. Please think of the environment and
reducing our carbon footprint and where possible request materials only by email.
Instructions
on how to request a printed copy may be found in the Information Statement. We believe that the electronic process via email expedites
your receipt of the information statement materials and reduces the cost and environmental impact of printing information statement materials.
On
or about April 25, 2023, Stockholders of record and beneficial owners of our common stock at the close of business on April 24, 2023
(Stockholders of Record) were sent a Notice instructing them as to how to receive their information statement materials via the Internet
or email.
How
many votes are required to approve each proposal and how will this be voted?
Under
our Bylaws, except as otherwise required by law, changes to the Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws made by the Stockholders shall
be effected by the affirmative vote of a qualified majority of two thirds of the votes cast at a Meeting at which a quorum is present.
Similarly,
each nominee for director shall be elected to the Board by the affirmative vote of the majority of votes cast at a Meeting at which a
quorum is present.
And
in the same manner, the affirmative vote of a majority of shares cast at a Meeting at which a quorum is present is required to ratify
the appointment of BF Borgers CPA PC, as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2023 fiscal year.
On
April 21, 2023, Stockholders representing a majority of all the issued and outstanding shares of the Corporation agreed by Written Consent
in accordance with section 78.320.2 of the Nevada Revised Statutes and the Corporation’s governing documents (1) to the items being
proposed and (2) to enact such decisions on or around May 18, 2023. Since such Written Consent was taken by Stockholders representing
83.8% of the total issued and outstanding voting power of the 28,446,83 shares of Common Stock of the Corporation and considering this
represents a clear majority on all the matters proposed and constitutes a quorum it may be taken that these decisions will be enacted
on or around May 18, 2023.
As
a result there will be no Stockholders’ meeting held.
What
is the difference between holding shares as a Stockholder of Record and as a beneficial owner?
Some
of our Stockholders hold their shares through a broker, trustee, bank, other financial intermediary, or other nominee rather than directly
in their own name. As summarized below, there are some differences between Stockholders of Record and beneficial owners.
Stockholders
of Record
If
your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equity Stock Transfer, 237 West 37th Street, Suite 602, New
York, NY 10018, USA as of the close of business on April 24, 2023, you are considered the Stockholder of record with respect to those
shares, and the Notice of the availability of the information statement will be sent to you, via mail, email or otherwise, directly to
you by the Corporation.
Beneficial
Owners
If
your shares are held through a brokerage firm, trustee, bank, other financial intermediary, or other nominee, as of the close of business
on April 24, 2023, you are considered the beneficial owner of those shares held in “street form”. The Notice of information
statement materials will be made available, via mail, email or otherwise, by the Corporation to your broker, trustee, bank, other financial
intermediary or other nominee (the “intermediary”) and they will forward this notice to you.
What
Corporate matters did the Majority Stockholders vote for?
The
Majority Stockholders have voted in favor of the following Proposals:
|
● |
Approval
of the revised and restated Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation. |
|
|
|
|
● |
Approval
of the revised and restated Bylaws of the Corporation. |
|
● |
The
appointment of two (2) members to our Board of Directors to hold office until our 2023 Annual Meeting or until their respective successor(s)
is/are elected and qualified. |
|
|
|
|
● |
The
appointment of BF Borgers CPA PC, as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2023 fiscal year. |
Will
any other actions be taken resulting from the Written Consent?
No.
Will
the results of the decisions of the Written Consent be additionally published?
This
is the definitive Information Statement on Form 14-C. The results of the decision-making process will not be additionally published.
This definitive Information statement is made available on our Corporation Website (www.next-chemx.com/investor-information/corporate-documents/)
and on the Securities and Exchange Commission website under our Corporation name and trading symbol “CHMX” (https://www.sec.gov/edgar/browse/?CIK=1657045&owner=exclude).
Am
I being solicited or required to vote?
No.
Since a clear majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation have already pledged to adopt the decisions
required to be decided at the Annual Meeting by Written Consent made on April 21, 2023 in accordance with section 78.320.2 of the Nevada
Revised Statutes and the Corporation’s governing documents, additional votes are not required and proxies from other Stockholders
are not being sought. The decisions made are now definitive.
Is
there a list of Stockholders of Record?
A
list of Stockholders of Record may be obtained by our Stockholders of Record from the President of the Corporation via an email request
sent to ir@next-chemx.com. If you are a beneficial owner, such request should be made through the Stockholder of Record holding
your shares.

ACTION
1: ADOPTION OF CHANGES TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
Summary
In
preparation for holding meetings virtually, the majority stockholder has decided to implement changes to the Articles of Incorporation
of the Corporation to state unequivocally the Corporation’s ability to hold meetings of stockholders by means of remote communication
with the procedures for such meetings being further set out in the By-Laws and supplemented by procedures fixed by the Board of Directors
from time to time. In addition the minimum number of directors was changed from one to two. Other changes made were to improve clarity
and to correct typographical errors.
ACTION
2: ADOPTION OF CHANGES TO THE BYLAWS OF THE CORPORATION
Summary
To
bring the Bylaws in line with the changes made to the Articles of Incorporation as well as to introduce certain other modifications to
shareholder rights, Director powers and the holding of Board Meetings, changes were adopted to take effect on or about May 18, 2023 modifying
the Bylaws. A summary of the changes is as follows:
To
provide specifically and confirming the provisions of applicable law, that any action required or permitted to be taken at any stockholder
meeting may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, a written consent thereto is signed by stockholders holding at
least a majority of the voting power, provided however, where a different proportion of voting power is required for any action, then
that different proportion of written consents is required.
To
allow specifically for stockholders to receive all notices via email.
To
allow for all meetings of the stockholders to be held (a) In Person, (b) virtually, or (c) as hybrid meetings. Virtual meetings are held
using some form of remote communication; hybrid meetings are held with stockholders attending both in person and by remote communication.
Where remote communication is allowed, stockholders must be able to (1) participate, (2) be deemed present and (3) vote. The Board of
Directors shall specify the form of any stockholders’ meeting by resolution.
To
clarify and modify the rules under which a stockholder may propose candidates for election to the Board of Directors and how motions
may be put forward for consideration at stockholder meetings:
1)
nominations to the Board of Directors: where made by Stockholders must be made to the Corporate Secretary by mail or email within the
period of three months immediately prior to the Corporation’s fiscal year end for possible inclusion in the next annual general
meeting. Nominations must go before the Board of Directors or board committee to examine the suitability of the candidate prior to inclusion
in the election list. The process of vetting will include interviews and the possibility of requiring additional information on the candidate
and should be completed before the earlier of the deadline for the publication of the Annual Report or March 31 of the year in which
the annual general meeting is to be held; and
2)
other proposals for consideration at the Stockholders’ meeting: should be sent not less than 30 days nor more than 90 days prior
to March 31.
To
require regular quarterly meeting of the Board of Directors following presentation of the quarterly financial statements and the draft
annual report to the stockholders, as well as immediately following the annual general meeting or the announcement of the entry into
force of decisions made by the majority of the stockholders. Such meetings may be replaced by a unanimous written decision. All Directors
meetings may be held virtually using the Internet or any other means of remote communication. Notices of meeting by the Directors may
be sent physically or electronically to email with 24 hours prior notice of the Meeting.
To
provide for the temporary suspension of any Officer of the Corporation by the Corporate Governance Committee for a period of not more
than five (5) days pending the convening of a special board meeting.
To
provide clarification of the ability of a transfer agent to manage certain shareholder records.
To
restrict the access by stockholders to the books and records of the Corporation any stockholder who has been a stockholder for at least
six (6) months and who controls at least five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares (or who is authorized by the holders of at least
five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares). Such Stockholders may, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, request
copies of the documents held by the registered agent or transfer agent of the Corporation. These documents are limited to (1) the articles
of incorporation and all amendments thereto, (2) the bylaws and all amendments thereto and (3) a stock ledger (or a duplicate stock ledger),
revised annually, containing the names, alphabetically arranged, of all persons who are stockholders, showing their places of residence,
if known, and the number of shares they respectively hold.
Other
changes include replacing the abbreviation of ‘CEO’ with the title ‘Chief Executive Officer’; and using ‘Corporate
Secretary’ in place of ‘Secretary’; clarification of the role of President as a chief operating officer; establishing
the role of Chief Financial Officer as equivalent to that of Treasurer with such office having responsibility for tax and regulatory
filings relating to finance; clarification of the role of the Corporate Governance Committee, when created, as appointing officers and
fixing executive remuneration;
ACTION
3: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Summary
Our
entire Board is elected annually by our Stockholders and currently consists of two members. During the course of 2023, it is anticipated
that the number of directors will be increased to not less than three not more than five with the addition of new “independent
directors”. At present, however, both directors are standing for re-election for a one-year term, to hold office until the 2024
Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified.
The
nominees for re-election are: Benton Wilcoxon and J. Michael Johnson.
Each
of the director nominees is willing and able to stand for election and we know of no reason why any of the nominees would be unable to
serve as a director. Should such a situation arise, however, the Board may designate a substitute nominee or, alternatively, reduce the
number of directors to be elected. If a substitute nominee is selected, the persons named as proxies will vote for that substitute nominee.
Any vacancies not filled at the Annual Meeting may be filled by the Board.
Director
Nominees
The
biography of each of the nominees is listed below and contains information regarding the person’s service as a director for NEXT-ChemX
Corporation; their business experience, other public company director positions currently held or held at any time during the last five
years, information regarding involvement in certain legal or administrative proceedings (if applicable), and the experiences, qualifications,
attributes or skills that caused the Board to determine that the person should serve as a director in light of our business and structure.
ACTION
2: APPOINTMENT OF BF BORGERS CPA PC, AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE 2023 FISCAL YEAR
Our
independent registered public accountants are appointed annually by the Stockholders for the year in hand and will carry out the review
of quarterly financial statements and the full audit of our 2023 year-end financial statements. They also review the SEC filings relating
to our accounts. BF Borgers performs 10-K audits and 10-Q quarterly reviews according to PCAOB standards for over 80 publicly traded
companies around the world. These companies range from start-up and development stage to successful mid-market companies.
BF
Borgers has been the appointed auditor for the Corporation since 2020.
NOMINEES
FOR DIRECTOR ELECTED UNDER THE WRITTEN CONSENT.
Benton
H Wilcoxon
Mr.
Wilcoxon has served as a Director and Chief Executive Officer of NEXT-ChemX Corporation for two years and approximately 1 month since
April 2021. Benton is an accomplished American entrepreneur with a world-class talent for integrating new material technologies into
revolutionary products. He has founded upwards of 10 companies to commercialize new products, most notably Ashurst Technology Ltd (“Ashurst”)
and Composite Technology Corporation (“CTC”). As the head of Ashurst, he identified and was the first to develop and commercialize
aluminum scandium alloys for aerospace, marine and sports equipment applications. In that role and subsequently he developed and operated
scandium extraction from solutions of ore bodies and processed tailings. Wilcoxon founded CTC to develop and commercialize a new bare
overhead electrical conductor for high voltage transmission lines that provided a leap forward in grid efficiency and operation capabilities.
The transmission technology has now been deployed in over 1,100 projects across 65 countries. The technology is currently estimated by
CTC to reduce CO2 emissions by over 4.365 million metric tons every year. End users include some of the largest utilities
in the world including American Electric Power in the USA, National Grid in the UK and State Grid in China. He also headed DeWind, which
commercialized the first synchronous large megawatt wind turbines before its sale and transfer to Daewoo. Mr Wilcoxon has worked for
many years designing and exploring various material extraction and refining technologies including chemical, osmotic, filtration and
autoclave processes to more advanced and experimental systems.
J.
Michael Johnson
Mr.
Johnson has served as Director, President, and Financial Officer of NEXT-ChemX Corporation for two years and approximately 1 month since
April of 2021. Mr. Johnson brings professional experience gained from his services to a variety of public and privately held middle market
businesses for over 30 years. For over 5 years Mr. Johnson has been the CEO of Future Capital Holdings that has filed a medical patent
before entering the distressed asset market in late 2021. Mr. Johnson’s financial career began at Fidelity Investments in 1990
in the institutional trading division. From approximately 1992-2001 Mr. Johnson worked at various broker dealers in both retail and institutional
sales. During this timeframe Mr. Johnson also was a 25% partner in Southern California Equity Group, Inc. a franchise broker dealer located
in La Jolla California. During these years Mr. Johnson participated in IPO’s, secondary offerings, debt, equity financings, as
well as private placements both on the retail and institutional level. In 2002, Mr. Johnson became an independent consultant working
for various small cap growth companies providing services for his client to raise capital and navigate through the public markets. His
primary focus has been identifying funding sources, structuring financings and negotiating the terms of the capital. Mr. Johnson was
instrumental in arranging for Mr. Wilcoxon and his team to commercialize the Membrane Extraction Technology through the Corporation.
Mr. Johnson received his Bachelor of Science degree in Economics in 1989 from Fitchburg State University.
CORPORATE
GOVERNANCE OVERVIEW
Overview
of the Current Situation
Following
the reorganization of the Corporation’s business in April 2021 and the changing of the Board of Directors as well as the complete
refocus of the business away from management services to the development of new products, specifically the Membrane Extraction Technology
(SIC Code: 3559), the Corporation found itself with a small technology team developing what may potentially become a ground breaking
approach to the extraction of ions from solutions, including lithium, calcium, magnesium, and other elements. The team has been focusing
on the completion of intellectual property protection, pilot plant development and other essential steps in the commercialization of
the technology. Senior staff has been added slowly due the start-up nature of the business and the lack of job security this entails
as well as financial constraints. These factors have inhibited the Board’s efforts to introduce the full array of corporate governance
measures.
The
Board is, however, strongly committed to transparency, good governance, accountability, and independent oversight. For this reason, this
information statement will highlight certain deficiencies in the current Board structure as well as the lack of independent control that
is the hallmark of early development stage companies that are focused on internal results in the shortest period.
We
currently have no independent directors. Our directors are entrepreneurs dedicated to building the business and focused on results. The
inertia required to overcome the difficulties inherent in a start-up is considerable, however, while concentrating on this development,
the Board is committed also to progressing in the shortest period to the introduction of Board independence and regulation by independent
Board committee and regular oversight.
At
present, the Board has passed certain Corporate Governance Guidelines that will act as the guide to the introduction of good governance
over time. These guidelines are available to Stockholders of record on demand via email (m.johnson@next-chemx.com) and is posted
on the Corporation’s website under Investor Information.
Included
in the Corporate Governance Guidelines is the provision for the establishment of 3 Board Committees:
(1)
the Audit Committee (“NCX Audit Committee”);
(2)
an Executive Compensation and HR Committee (“ECHR Committee”); and
(3)
a Board Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee (“Board NCG Committee”)
The
Chairman will be actively seeking, with the help of third parties, independent board candidates to enhance the Bord performance. However,
the full Board currently remains responsible for the final approval of any new director candidates, as well as the nomination of existing
directors for re-election.
Chief
Executive Officer Succession
It
is again anticipated that during the next 12 months the Corporation will be putting in place measures to cope with and plans for the
succession for our Chief Executive Officer (and other executive officers, as appropriate). Our Chief Executive Officer will discuss with
the Board and document his recommendations. He will evaluate potential successors to his position, including where possible in the event
of an emergency. The Chief Executive Officer will review and suggest induction and education plans recommended for both external candidates
and those who are current employees of the Corporation.
Board
Leadership Structure
Our
Board believes that it is important that it retain flexibility to make the determination as to whether the interests of the Corporation
and our Stockholders are best served by having the same individual serve as both Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, or
whether the roles should be separated based on the circumstances at any given time. At present, given the needs of the Corporation, it
has been determined that these roles are best served by Mr. Wilcoxon holding both positions. Cognizant of the need to provide for oversight
in this case, during 2022 and following the appointment of independent directors to the Board, our Corporate Governance Guidelines call
for the Board to appoint a “Lead Independent Director” where the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board roles
are combined, (or even where an individual Chairman is not otherwise independent).
The
Corporation anticipates that a Lead Independent Director will be so nominated before the next annual general meeting.
The
Lead Independent Director will preside over meetings of our non-management directors, serve as liaison between our Chairman and the independent
directors, work with the Chairman to establish agendas for Board and committee meetings, raise issues with management on behalf of the
independent directors, consult with committee leadership, and carry out other duties as requested by the Board. The Lead Independent
Director also has the authority to call meetings of the Board and special meetings of independent or non-management directors, as needed.
Board
Evaluations
Our
Board of Directors will conduct annual self-evaluations, that are anticipated to be overseen by the Corporate Governance Committee.
Risk
Oversight
Our
Board oversees an eclectic, enterprise-wide approach to risk management, analyzing through our strategic goals the potential issues that
may arise during implementation. The focus is on risk anticipation, training and preventive measures as well as improving and adapting
long-term organizational performance to become more resilient and better able to cope with adverse circumstances. A major factor in our
risk assessments and prevention plans is the intellectual property protection work and this is contracted to a third-party specialist
company with specific, targeted expertise in this area.
A
fundamental part of risk oversight is to understand the individual risks our Corporation faces, And the formulation of the steps management
must take to mitigate those risks, including the framework used by management for coordinated oversight, control, and continuous improvement
of processes all of which are used to manage risk and to assess management’s appetite for risk.
It
is management’s responsibility to manage risk and bring material risks facing our Corporation to the Board’s attention.
Our
Board is fully aware of the risks relating to strategic and operational initiatives, business continuity, cybersecurity, financial performance
and legal developments, which are each integrated with enterprise-risk exposures. The involvement of the full Board in approving our
strategic plan is a key part of its assessment of the risks inherent in our corporate strategy.
Communications
with the Board
Stockholders
and other interested parties who wish to communicate directly with any member of our Board, the Board as a group, or our non-management
directors as a group, may do so by writing to the Board of Directors (c/o the Chairman) or Non-Management Directors (when appointed,
c/o the Lead Independent Director or Corporate Secretary) at NEXT-ChemX Corporation, 901 Mopac Expressway South, Building 1, Suite 300,
Austin, Texas 78746, United States or by contacting us via email at ir@next-chemx.com. Please note that communications may be reviewed
by legal counsel to review and organize, but not screen, communications from Stockholders and other interested parties subsequently to
deliver them to the Board or non-management directors, as applicable. We will screen commercial solicitations for appropriateness.
Related
Party Transactions
Our
Board has adopted a written related party transaction policy to monitor transactions, arrangements or relationships in which the Corporation
and any of the following have an interest: (1) any person who is or was (since April 27, 2021), even if they do not presently serve in
that role) an executive officer, director or director nominee; (ii) any person or entity who holds more than a 5% beneficial ownership
of our common stock; (iii) any immediate family member of any of the foregoing; or (iv) any entity in which any of the foregoing persons
is employed or is a general partner or principal or acts in any similar position in which such person or persons collectively have a
10% or greater beneficial ownership interest. The policy covers any related party transaction that meets the minimum threshold for disclosure
under relevant SEC rules (generally, transactions involving amounts exceeding $120,000 in which a related person has a direct or indirect
material interest). We do not include salary as a related party disclosure.
Code
of Conduct
We
maintain a Code of Conduct, which has been approved by our Board, to ensure that our directors, employees and officers, including our
Chief Executive Officer and Financial Officer, understand the basic principles that govern our corporate conduct. The Code of Conduct
is available on demand for our Stockholders by requesting a copy to ir@next-chemx.com.
Sustainability
All
human systems and most natural processes consume resources. The Corporation seeks to ensure that its systems and procedures use resources
that are replaceable where possible (taking care that they are replaced or are scheduled to be replaced) and does not waste essential
depletable resources unnecessarily. In this manner, we endeavor to reduce our environmental footprint across our organization. Proactively,
we design our approaches and solutions in such a manner as to limit the disruption of surrounding and interconnected systems. In terms
of society, we engage with and support the communities wherein we operate. We endeavor to conduct our operations in a responsible and
ethical manner, and, internally, we aim to advance the growth, capabilities and wellbeing of our employees.
Our
principal product in development, our extraction system is designed to remove targeted ions without the overapplication of heat energy
or the creation of expensive pressure and without the necessity of large amounts of water that can deplete water resources in the area
of operation. We aim to avoid toxic chemical usage that can lead to contaminations and that have some inevitable effect on the environment,
that require an increase in the costs of clean-up or that raise problems of disposal. For more information please refer to our website
www.next-chemx.com, or to the information disclosed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K available at https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/1657045/000149315223013175/form10-ka.htm).
These
philosophies and approaches are what we mean when we claim a sustainable approach to our work and environment. It is better described
as a drive to a harmonious co-existence with our environment, with corelated or neighboring systems both natural and manmade and with
the least unnecessary disruption or hazard for the present or future generations.
These
policies are not as yet having an important effect, but the foundations will be laid prior to our commencing production and deployment
of our products and systems, and we will report on the results as we move forward.
MEETINGS
AND BOARD COMMITTEES
Board
Meetings and Director Attendance
The
Board met fourteen (14) times in 2022. Three (3) of these meetings were called in the ordinary manner and the remaining eleven (11) were
conducted by unanimous written consent with the discussions and issues being weighed by conference prior to the elaboration of the minutes.
Since year end 2022 and to date the Board has met a further nine (9) times with all but one of these meetings done by unanimous written
decision. Both of the incumbent directors participated in the input and elaboration of all the decisions of the Board.
Committees
There
were no Committees established and operational during 2022 and to date. There are no independent director members of the Board. It is
anticipated that this situation will change during 2023 beginning with the appointment of independent directors and the creation of the
Audit Committee.
DIRECTOR
COMPENSATION
Director
Compensation
The
Directors of the Corporation who are also both executives are paid $10,000 per month each for their work as executives. Currently no
Director is remunerated for his work as a Director or as Chairman or for sitting on any committee of the Board. Moreover, due to the
Corporation remaining in the initial stages of its development and the lack of operating capital, all director/executives have agreed
to forego both regular salaried remuneration and reimbursement of unpaid expenses. An executive officer’s unpaid remuneration will
accrue until paid by the Company, however, the executive have the right, but not the obligation, to be paid all or a portion of his accrued
and unpaid salary in shares of the Company’s common stock if he so elects on the first business day of each calendar quarter.
There
are currently no welfare plans organized by the Company and available to Directors. However, the Chairman currently receives certain
medical insurance benefits that permit treatment in the US and Internationally.
During
fiscal 2022, neither of the Directors of the Corporation received cash payments as remuneration.
Future
Independent Director Remuneration.
It
is anticipated that the Lead Independent Director will receive an annual cash fee of $30,000 and the chairman of the Audit Committee
will receive an annual cash fee of $18,000 as well as options to acquire shares in the Corporation. The salaries of other committees
have as yet not been considered.
Each
non-employee director will receive an annual cash retainer and fees on a quarterly basis. It is anticipated that each non-employee director
will also receive an equity award in lieu of payment and options to acquire the shares of common stock of the Corporation.
Employee
Directors Remuneration
The
Officers, Executives and Employees of the Corporation all have employment Agreements with the Corporation.
Directors who are also Executives of the Corporation receive no additional compensation for serving on the Board or its committees.
In
June of 2022, the employment agreements of all the Executive Officers of the Corporation were modified (the new agreements being disclosed
in the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K as modified by the Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the Securities Exchange Commission
on April 21, 2023. An important change contained in such agreements was the right granted to certain key executives owed more than $50,000
in salary remuneration to receive the full amount of any back salary remuneration multiplied by 3 1/3 in the event that there is a change
of control of the Company, in particular where any individual or group of investors acquires over 50% of the Company’s voting stock.
However, should such executives have received the full amount of their past due salary prior to the change of control, no additional
remuneration shall be due in this respect. Executives benefiting from this provision may convert any multiplied back salary into shares
at the same price at which the change of control was affected.
The
Chairman of the Corporation is paid $10,000 per month. He has voluntary agreed to forego any increase in salary due from July 1, 2022
until either (i) confirmation by an independent Corporate Governance Committee of such increase or (ii) when, in the unanimous determination
of the Board of Directors, the Corporation (a) is considered to have reached a level of market confidence in the Corporation’s
technology or the commercialization of the technology commences with a completed pilot plant, or otherwise generally at the discretion
of the Board of Directors.
If
located abroad certain executives may receive housing allowances or other expenses as an incentive or related to the difficulty of life
in such locations.
No
options or other forms of compensation have been granted to the Corporation’s Directors, Executives or employees to date.
Other
Payments and Benefits
We
are obliged to pay for, or reimburse our directors for, transportation, hotel, meals and other incidental expenses incurred in connection
with their performance of services for us, including attending Board and committee meetings and participating in director education programs.
We also extend directors’ and officers’ indemnity insurance coverage to each of our directors.

any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the Preferred Stock of each Series
shall be entitled, before any distribution shall be made to the Common Stock or to any other class of stock junior to the Preferred
Stock, to be paid the amount fixed and determined by the board of Directors for such Series as herein provided, plus accrued and
unpaid dividends thereon to the date of distribution, but the Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any further payment, and any
remaining net assets shall be distributed ratably to the outstanding Common Stock. If, upon such liquidation, dissolution, or winding
up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the net assets of the Corporation shall be insufficient to permit the payment
to all outstanding Shares of Preferred Stock of all Series of the full preferential amounts to which they are respectively entitled,
then the entire net assets of the Corporation shall be distributed ratably to all outstanding Shares of Preferred Stock of all Series
in proportion to the full preferential amount to which each Share is entitled. Neither a consolidation nor a merger of the Corporation
with or into any other corporation or corporations, nor the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, shall
be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up within the meaning of this section. |
|
|
(I) |
The
Preferred Stock shall not be convertible, except to the extent that any one or more Series thereof may be issued with the privilege
of conversion as may be determined by the Board of Directors prior to issuance of any Shares of such Series as herein set forth. |
If
the Shares of any Series are so issued with the privilege of conversion, then, at the option of the respective holders thereof, the Preferred
Stock of such Series shall be convertible into a number of fully paid and non-assessable Shares of the Common Stock or any other class
of stock of the Corporation at the conversion rate, or upon payment to the Corporation of the conversion price, which is in effect for
the Preferred Stock of such Series at the time of such conversion. The initial conversion rate or conversion price (including, in the
latter case, the number of Shares of Common Stock or other class of stock issuable upon conversion), and the terms and conditions of
conversion for each Series issued with the privilege of conversion shall be fixed and determined by the Board of Directors as hereinafter
provided. Such conversion price or conversion rate, with respect to any such Series, may be subject, from time to time, to adjustment
by virtue of issuance of securities or rights to purchase securities of the Corporation, or upon any capital reorganization or reclassification
of the Common Stock of the Corporation, or the consolidation or merger of the Corporation, or the sale, conveyance, lease, or other transfer
by the Corporation of all or substantially all of its property, or in other circumstances, all to the extent and in the manner fixed
and determined by the Board of Directors as herein set forth.
(J) |
Shares
of any Series of Preferred Stock which have been issued and reacquired in any manner by the Corporation (including Shares redeemed,
Shares purchased and retired, and Shares which, if convertible or exchangeable, have been converted into or exchanged for Shares
of stock of any other class, classes, or Series) shall have the status of authorized and unissued Shares of Preferred Stock and may
be reissued as a part of the Series of which they were originally a part, or may be reclassified and reissued as part of a new Series
of Preferred Stock to be created by resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors, or as part of any other Series of Preferred
Stock, all subject to the conditions or restrictions on issuance set forth in any resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board
of Directors provided for the issue of any Series of Preferred Stock. |
(K) |
None
of the holders of Preferred Stock of any Series shall have any voting powers for any purpose, except as may be specifically required
by law, or except as any such right to vote may be fixed and determined by the Board of Directors prior to issuance of any Shares
of such Series as herein provided. |
|
|
(L) |
In
order the Board of Directors to establish a Series of Preferred Stock, the Board of Directors shall adopt a resolution or resolutions
setting forth the designation and the number of Shares of such Series and the relative rights and preferences thereof in respect
of the foregoing particulars. The Board of Directors may redesignate any Shares of any Series theretofore established that have not
been issued, or that have been issued and retired, as Shares of some other Series, or change the designation of outstanding Shares
where desired to prevent confusion. |
|
|
(M) |
For
the purposes hereof and of any resolution of the Board of Directors providing for the classification or reclassification of any Shares
of Preferred Stock: |
(i)
The term “outstanding,” when used in reference to Shares of stock, shall mean issued Shares, excluding Shares held by the
Corporation or a subsidiary, and Shares called for redemption; funds for the redemption of which shall have been deposited in trust;
Common
Stock
Subject
to the foregoing provisions, dividends may be declared on the Common Stock, and each Share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof
to one vote in all proceedings in which action shall be taken by stockholders of the Corporation.
All
said shares may be issued by the Corporation from time to time for such considerations as may be fixed by the Board of Directors.
Section
2. Rights of the Board of Directors to Decrease in Number of Issued and Outstanding Shares of Class or Series.
(A) |
The
Company’s Board of Directors shall have the right to decrease the number of issued and outstanding shares of any or more classes
or series of the Company’s capital stock as held by each stockholder of record at the effective date and time of the change without
correspondingly decreasing the number of authorized shares of the same class or series may do so if: |
(i)
The Company’s board of directors adopts a resolution setting forth the proposal to decrease the number of issued and outstanding
shares of any class or series; and
(ii)
The proposal is approved by the vote of stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of the affected class or series, or such
greater proportion as may be provided in the articles of incorporation, regardless of limitations or restrictions on the voting power
of the affected class or series.
(B) |
If
the proposal required by subsection (A) is approved by the stockholders entitled to vote, the Corporation may reissue its stock in
accordance with the proposal after the effective date and time of the change. |
|
|
(C) |
Except
as otherwise provided or required by NRS 78.2055, if a proposed decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of any class
or series would adversely alter or change any preference, or any relative or other right given to any other class or series of outstanding
shares, then the decrease must be approved by the vote, in addition to any vote otherwise required, of the holders of shares representing
a majority of the voting power of each class or series whose preference or rights are adversely affected by the decrease, or such
greater proportion as may be provided in the articles of incorporation, regardless of limitations or restrictions on the voting power
of the adversely affected class or series. The decrease does not have to be approved by the vote of the holders of shares representing
a majority of the voting power of each class or series whose preference or rights are adversely affected by the decrease if the articles
of incorporation specifically deny the right to vote on such a decrease. |
(D) |
Any
proposal to decrease the number of issued and outstanding shares of any class or series, if any, that includes provisions pursuant
to which only money will be paid or scrip will be issued to stockholders who: |
(i)
Before the decrease in the number of shares becomes effective, hold 1 percent or more of the outstanding shares of the affected class
or series; and
(ii)
Would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share in exchange for the cancellation of all their outstanding shares.
FIFTH.

pay the debts of the Corporation.

of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be the

the day on which the said decisions are first announced or the stockholder meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record
entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided however,

such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit
