Item 3.03. Material Modification to
Rights of Security Holders.
As previously disclosed, the Board of Directors of Camber Energy,
Inc. (the “Company”), approved, on December
14, 2022, a 1-for-50 reverse stock split of the Company’s (a)
authorized shares of common stock; and (b) issued and outstanding
shares of common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”).
Reason for the Reverse Stock Split
The Reverse Stock Split was effected solely to enable the Company
to expeditiously restore compliance with the continued listing
standard of the NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) (which the
Company was previously advised it was in non-compliance with) and
to reduce the risk of the Company being automatically delisted from
the NYSE American due to the trading price of its common stock
falling below a price which the NYSE American views as abnormally
low.
Effects of the Reverse Stock Split
Effective Date; Symbol;
CUSIP Number. The Reverse Stock Split became effective
at 12:01 a.m. Central Standard Time on December 21, 2022, and was
reflected with the NYSE American and in the marketplace at the open
of business on December 21, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), whereupon the
shares of common stock began trading on a split-adjusted basis. In
connection with the Reverse Stock Split, the Company’s shares of
common stock will continue to trade on the NYSE American under the
symbol “CEI” but
will trade under a new CUSIP Number, 13200M 607.
Split Adjustment; No
Fractional Shares. On the Effective Date, the total
number of shares of the Company’s common stock held by each
shareholder were converted automatically into the number of whole
shares of common stock equal to (i) the number of issued and
outstanding shares of common stock held by such shareholder
immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split, divided by (ii)
50.
No fractional shares will be issued, and no cash or other
consideration will be paid. Instead, the Company will issue one
whole share of the post-Reverse Stock Split common stock to any
shareholder who otherwise would have received a fractional share as
a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
Non-Certificated
Shares; Certificated Shares. Stockholders who are
holding their shares in electronic form at brokerage firms do not
have to take any action as the effect of the Reverse Stock Split
will automatically be reflected in their brokerage accounts.
Stockholders holding paper certificates may (but are not required
to) send the certificates to the Company’s transfer agent at the
address given below. The transfer agent will issue a new share
certificate reflecting the terms of the Reverse Stock Split to each
requesting shareholder.

Please contact ClearTrust, LLC for further information, related
costs and procedures before sending any certificates.
State
Filing. The Reverse Stock Split was effected by the
Company filing a Certificate of Change (the “Certificate”) pursuant to Nevada
Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Section 78.209 with the
Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on December 16, 2022. The
Certificate was not effective until the Effective Date. A copy of
the Certificate is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated
herein by reference.
No Stockholder Approval
Required. Under Nevada law, because the Reverse Stock
Split was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company in
accordance with NRS Section
78.207, no shareholder approval was required. NRS
Section 78.207
provides that the Reverse Stock Split may be implemented by a
resolution adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company,
without shareholder approval, if (x) both the number of authorized
shares of common stock and the number of outstanding shares of
common stock are proportionally reduced as a result of the Reverse
Stock Split; (y) the Reverse Stock Split does not adversely affect
any other class of stock of the Company; and (z) the Company does
not pay money or issue scrip to shareholders who would otherwise be
entitled to receive a fractional share as a result of the Reverse
Stock Split. As described herein, the Company has complied with
these requirements.
Capitalization. Prior to
the Effective Date of the Certificate, the Company was authorized
to issue 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock. As a result of the
Reverse Stock Split, the Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000
shares of common stock (the Company’s authorized shares of common
stock were reduced in the same ratio (1-for-50) as its outstanding
common stock was reduced). As of December 21, 2022 (immediately
prior to the Effective Date), there were 887,747,997 shares of
common stock outstanding. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split,
there are approximately 17,754,960 shares of common stock
outstanding (subject to adjustment due to the effect of rounding
fractional shares into whole shares). The Reverse Stock Split will
not have any effect on the stated par value of the common
stock.
The Reverse Stock Split does not affect the Company’s authorized
preferred stock. After the Reverse Stock Split, the Company’s
authorized preferred Stock of 10,000,000 shares remained unchanged.
Additionally, the Reverse Stock Split will not affect the par value
of the preferred stock, or previously designated series of
preferred stock, except to affect, where applicable, the conversion
rates and voting rights of such preferred stock.
Each shareholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company and
proportional voting power remains virtually unchanged as a result
of the Reverse Stock Split, except for minor changes and
adjustments that will result from rounding fractional shares into
whole shares. The rights and privileges of the holders of shares of
common stock will be substantially unaffected by the Reverse Stock
Split.
All options, warrants and convertible securities of the Company
outstanding immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split (to the
extent they don’t provide otherwise) will be appropriately adjusted
by dividing the number of shares of common stock into which the
options, warrants and convertible securities are exercisable or
convertible by 50 and multiplying the exercise or conversion price
thereof by 50, as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.

Stock Split. On December 21, 2022, the Company issued a press
release announcing the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split,
pursuant to NRS Section
78.207 and the filing of a Certificate of Change pursuant to
NRS Section 78.209.
A copy of each press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 hereto and
