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

Gulf West Security Network, Inc. (the “Company”) filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) amending its Fourth Article which became effective on April 1, 2022 to: (1) increase the authorized shares of common stock from 475,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and increase the authorized shares of preferred stock from 25,000,000 shares to 50,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 (the “Preferred Stock” and collectively with the Common Stock the “Authorized Share Increase”); and 2) effect a one for two-hundred (1:200) reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the shares of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock on a stockholder-by-stockholder basis except that the Reverse split will be effectuated on a certificate-by-certificate basis for shares held by registered holders. The Reverse Stock Split was approved by the Company’s sole director and majority stockholder on April 7, 2021.

In addition, and pursuant to the Certificate of Amendment, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) by resolution can cause the Company to issue one or more classes or one or more series of Preferred Stock within any class thereof and which classes or series may have such voting powers, and the Board may fix the number of shares constituting any classes or series and increase or decrease the number of shares of any such class or series. Moreover, all shares of any series of Preferred Stock, as between themselves, will rank equally and be identical (except that such shares may have different dividend provisions); and all series of Preferred Stock, as between themselves, will rank equally and be identical except as set forth in resolutions of the Board of Directors authorizing the issuance of such series.

The previous article Fourth of the Company’s articles of incorporation provided:

“The Aggregate number of shares of all classes of stock, which the corporation shall have authority to issue is Five Hundred Million (500,000,000) shares of $0.01 par value capital stock, of which Four Hundred Seventy Five Million (475,000,000) shares shall be designated ‘$0.001 Common Stock’ and Twenty Five Million (25,000,000) shares shall be designated ‘$0.01 par value Preferred Stock’. Further, the Board of Directors of the Corporation, by resolution only and without further action or approval, may cause the Corporation to issue one or more classes or one or more series of Preferred Stock within any class thereof and which classes or series may have such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences and relative, participation, optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be standard expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors, and fix the number of shares constituting any classes or series and to increase or decrease the number of shares of any such class or series.

Preferred Stock of any class or series redeemed, converted, exchanged, purchased, or otherwise acquired by the Corporation shall constitute authorized but unissued Preferred Stock.

All shares of any series of Preferred Stock, as between themselves, shall rank equally and be identical (except that such shares may have different dividend provisions); and all series of Preferred Stock, as between themselves, shall rank equally and be identical except as set forth in resolutions of the Board of Directors authorizing the issuance of such series.”

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every two-hundred (200) shares of issued and outstanding Common Stock was automatically combined into one (1) issued and outstanding share of Common Stock, without any change in the par value per share. The Reverse Stock Split occurred without any further action on the part of the Corporation or the holders of the new shares of Common Stock and whether or not certificates representing such holders’ shares prior to the Reverse Split are surrendered for cancellation.

No fractional shares were issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split and any fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split were rounded up to the nearest whole share. Following the Reverse Stock Split, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding was reduced from approximately 4,618,250 shares to 23,091 shares. The Company’s transfer agent, Issuer Direct Corporation, is the exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split and will correspond with stockholders of record regarding the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders owning shares via a broker or other nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

The Common Stock began trading on a reverse stock split-adjusted basis as of April 1, 2022. The Common Stock will trade for 20 days on a post-split basis under the temporary symbol “GWSN,” with the “D” added to signify that the Reverse Stock Split has occurred.

The forgoing description of the Certificate of Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Certificate of Amendment attached as Exhibits 3.1 on this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.
