Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On October 10, 2025, iQSTEL Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation for the Series D Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of Nevada to amend and restate the terms of its Series D Preferred Stock, originally established on November 3, 2023, and first amended on July 7, 2025. The Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation maintains the number of authorized shares at 100,000 and revises the terms by introducing a True-Up Adjustment mechanism to the conversion rate, as described below. The amended terms include the following key provisions:
- Dividend Rights: 12% cumulative dividend, payable as, when, and if declared by the Board of Directors, calculated on a 360-day year, accruing from the date of issuance and ceasing the day prior to conversion, with pro rata dividends for partial-year holdings.
- Conversion Rights: Following three months from the issuance date, the Series D Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a rate of 12.5 shares of common stock per share (the “Base Shares”), subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends, or reorganizations. Additionally, a True-Up Adjustment mechanism applies, whereby the conversion may include additional shares based on a comparison of the original conversion price (based on the 10-day VWAP with a 20% discount at the time of issuance) to the lowest daily VWAP during the five trading days preceding the conversion date with a further 20% discount applied to such lowest daily VWAP (the “Adjusted Conversion Price”), with a floor of $1.00 and a maximum True-Up Ratio of 2.5.
- Redemption Provisions: Optional redemption by the Company at 105% of the price paid by the holder, upon not more than three trading days’ notice.
- Liquidation Preference: Senior to common stock, Series A Preferred Stock, and Series C Preferred Stock, and on parity with Series B Preferred Stock, in any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company.
- Voting Rights: No voting rights, except as required by law or for amendments to the Certificate of Designation or Articles of Incorporation that would alter the Series D Preferred Stock’s rights.
- Leak-Out Restriction: After three months, conversions to common stock and sales are limited to 10% of the average daily trading volume of the Company’s common stock per holder.
The foregoing description of the Certificate of Designation is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Designation, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
