| Item 3.03 | Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders. |
On March 2, 2026, Resolute Holdings Management, Inc. (the “Company”) filed (i) a certificate of conversion with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and (ii) articles of conversion with the Nevada Secretary of State, pursuant to which the reincorporation of the Company from the State of Delaware to the State of Nevada by conversion (the “Reincorporation”) became effective on March 2, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time:
| · | the Company’s state of incorporation and governing law changed from the State of Delaware to the State of Nevada; and |
| · | the affairs of the Company ceased to be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, the Company’s existing Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, and instead became governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, the articles of incorporation filed with the Nevada Secretary of State (the “Nevada Charter”) and the bylaws approved by the Company’s board of directors (the “Nevada Bylaws”). |
The Reincorporation did not result in any change in the business, jobs, management, properties, location of any of the Company’s offices or facilities, number of employees, obligations, assets, liabilities, proceedings, or net worth (other than as a result of the costs related to the Reincorporation). The Reincorporation did not adversely affect any of the Company’s material contracts with any third parties, and the Company’s rights and obligations under those material contractual arrangements continue to be the rights and obligations of the Company after the Reincorporation.
At the Effective Time, each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Delaware corporation (the “Delaware Corporation Common Stock”) automatically converted into one outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Nevada corporation (the “Nevada Corporation Common Stock”). Stockholders of the Company do not have to exchange their existing book-entry shares for new book-entry shares. At the Effective Time, the Company’s equity incentive plans automatically became the equity incentive plans of the Nevada corporation, and each outstanding option or right to acquire shares of Delaware Corporation Common Stock continued in existence and automatically became an option or right to acquire an equal number of shares of Nevada Corporation Common Stock under the same terms and conditions (with no adjustments, in the case of options, to the per-share exercise price of the award). The shares of the Nevada Corporation Common Stock continue to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “RHLD”.
Certain rights of the Company’s stockholders were changed as a result of the Reincorporation. A more detailed description of the Plan of Conversion, the Nevada Charter, the Nevada Bylaws and the effects of the Reincorporation is set forth in the Information Statement filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 9, 2026. Copies of the Plan of Conversion, the Nevada Charter and the Nevada Bylaws are filed as Exhibits 2.1, 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
| Item 5.03 | Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year. |
