Technologies, Inc. (Net1 or the Company) filed its Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation (the Amendment and Restatement) with the Secretary
of State of the State of Florida. The Amendment and Restatement was previously
approved by the board of directors of the Company as described in the Companys
most recent proxy statement and was approved by the Companys shareholders at
its 2008 annual shareholders meeting held on November 27, 2008. The Amendment
and Restatement amends the Companys Articles of Incorporation to (i) increase
the number of authorized shares of the Companys common stock from 83,333,333
shares to 200,000,000 shares, (ii) simplify the Companys Articles of
Incorporation by deleting obsolete provisions and (iii) consolidate the
Companys Articles of Incorporation so that the entire charter is contained in
one document. No change was made to the number of authorized shares of our
preferred stock.
The foregoing description is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment and Restatement, a copy
of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and
incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01.
