Item
5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On
January 28, 2025, Bitech Technologies Corporation, now known as Bimergen Energy Corporation (the “Registrant”), filed a Certificate
of Amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Certificate to Incorporation, as amended (the “Charter”) to: (i) effect
a reverse stock split of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at a ratio of 1 post-split share
for every 140 pre-split shares (the “Reverse Split”); and (ii) to change the name of the Registrant to Bimergen Energy Corporation
(the “Name Change”).
As
previously reported, on October 9, 2024, a majority of the Registrant’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Charter to effect
a reverse split of the Common Stock at a range between one-for-two (1:2) and one-for-one hundred sixty (1:160), with such ratio as the
Board of Directors of the Registrant (the “Board”) may determine. On or about January 17, 2025, the Board approved the ratio
of the Reverse Split of 1 for 140. The Name Change was approved by the unanimous written consent of the Board in accordance with Sections
141(f) and Section 228(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, and as such, no shareholder approval of the Name Change is required.
Aa
a result of the Reverse Split, every 140 shares of the Registrant’s issued and outstanding Common Stock will be converted automatically
into one issued and outstanding share of Common Stock. The Reverse Split will not change the number of authorized shares of Common Stock
or the par value per share. Stockholders holding shares through a brokerage account will have their shares automatically adjusted to
reflect the 1-for-140 reverse stock split. Following the Reverse Split, the number of shares of the Registrant’s outstanding Common
Stock will be reduced from approximately 714,411,833 shares to approximately 5,104,000 shares. Fractional shares shall be rounded up
to the nearest whole share in connection with the split.
The
foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full
text of the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated into this Item 5.03 by reference.

CERTIFICATE
OF AMENDMENT TO
THE
CERTIFICATE
OF INCORPORATION
OF
BITECH
TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION
(Pursuant
to Section 242 of the
Delaware
General Corporation Law)
Bitech
Technologies Corporation. (the “Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), does hereby certify that:
1. |
Pursuant to Section 242
of the DGCL, this Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (this “Certificate of Amendment”)
amends the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended (the “Charter”). |
2. |
This Certificate of Amendment
has been approved and duly adopted by the Corporation’s Board of Directors and the stockholders in accordance with the provisions
of Section 242 of the DGCL. |
3. |
Upon this Certificate of Amendment becoming effective,
the Charter is hereby amended as follows: |
ARTICLE
FIRST of the Charter, as amended, is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
FIRST:
The name of the corporation is BIMERGEN ENERGY CORPORATION.
ARTICLE
FOURTH of the Charter, as amended, is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
FOURTH:
(a)
This Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of stock, designated “Common Stock” and “Preferred Stock.”
The total number of shares of Common Stock authorized to be issued is 1,000,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value per share. The total number
of shares of Preferred Stock authorized to be issued is 10,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value per share, 9,000,000 shares of which have
been designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
(b)
The undesignated Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors is hereby authorized,
to fix or alter the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock, and the number
of shares constituting any such series or the designation thereof and to increase or decrease the number of shares of any such series
subsequent to the issuance of shares of that series, but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding. In case the
number of shares of any series shall so be decreased, the shares constituting such decrease shall resume the status that they had prior
to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of such series.
(c)
Upon the filing and effectiveness (the “Effective Time”) of this Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation
of the Corporation, the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be reclassified as,
and shall be combined and changed into, a smaller number of shares such that each one hundred forty (140) shares of issued Common Stock
immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be reclassified into, and shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the
Corporation or the respective holders thereof, be combined and changed into and become, one (1) validly issued, fully-paid and nonassessable
share of Common Stock without increasing or decreasing the par value of each share of Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split and, in lieu
thereof, upon receipt after the Effective Time by the Corporation’s transfer agent of a properly completed and duly executed transmittal
letter and, where shares are held in certificated form, upon surrender after the Effective Time of a certificate which formerly represented
shares of Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, any person who would otherwise be entitled
to a fractional share of Common Stock as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, following the Effective Time (after taking into account
and aggregating all fractional shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder), shall receive one
whole share of Common Stock in lieu of such fractional share. From and after the Effective Time, certificates representing Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the Corporation or the
respective holders thereof, represent the number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock into which the shares of pre-Reverse
Stock Split Common Stock shall have been reclassified (as well as the right to receive one whole share of Common Stock in lieu of any
fractional share of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock, after taking into account and aggregating all fractional shares of post-Reverse
Stock Split Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder) pursuant to the foregoing provisions; provided, however, that
each holder of record of a certificate that represented shares of pre- Reverse Stock Split Common Stock shall receive, upon surrender
of such certificate, a new certificate representing the number of whole shares of post-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock into which the
shares of pre-Reverse Stock Split Common Stock represented by such certificate shall have been combined pursuant to the Reverse Stock
Split; provided further, that any dividends or other distributions that may be declared after the Effective Time with respect
to the number of post-Reverse Stock Split shares of Common Stock represented by that certificate will be withheld by the Corporation
until that certificate has been properly presented for exchange, at which time all such withheld dividends that have not yet been paid
to a public official pursuant to relevant abandoned property or escheat laws will be paid to the holder thereof or the holder’s
designee, without interest. The Reverse Stock Split shall be effected on a record holder- by-record holder basis, such that any fractional
shares of post- Reverse Stock Split Common Stock resulting from the Reverse Stock Split and held by a single record holder shall be aggregated.”
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Certificate of Amendment to be signed by its duly authorized officer as of this 27th
day of January, 2025
