Filing to increase the AVAILABLE shares DOES NOT dilute the share structure. While some dilution can occur, it does so only when a portion of those shares are put into circulation and increase the outstanding shares. There are important protective measures that can only be taken if the shares are available for private placement in the event it should be necessary. Everyone invested should do themselves a favor and ignore the turds who intend to mislead with pure bullshit. Understand that by "issuance" they are NOT referring to shares "available". To "issue" shares is to place them into the outstanding share count. Thanks to the new financing arrangements, this doesn't happen until 6 months after accessing their financing, allowing time to cover some or all conversions with revenue from sales growth. Read the section below which comes directly from the filing:
Effects of Increase
In general, the issuance of any new shares of common stock will cause immediate dilution to the Company’s existing stockholders, may affect the amount of any dividends paid to such stockholders and may reduce the share of the proceeds of the Company that they would receive upon liquidation of the Company. Another effect of increasing the Company’s authorized common stock may be to enable the Board of Directors to render it more difficult to, or discourage an attempt to, obtain control of the Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby protect the continuity of present management. The Board of Directors would, unless prohibited by applicable law, have additional shares of common stock available to effect transactions (such as private placements) in which the number of the Company's outstanding shares would be increased and would thereby dilute the interest of any party attempting to gain control of the Company, even if such party is offering a significant premium over the current market price of the common stock. Such an issuance of shares of common stock would increase the number of outstanding shares, thereby possibly diluting the interest of a party attempting to obtain control of the Company. The Board of Directors is not aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of the Company, and this resolution was not presented with the intent that the increase in the Company's authorized common stock be utilized as an anti-takeover measure.
