The Company must have sufficient authorized shares available to complete mergers & acquisitions in the event attractive, synergistic opportunities presents themselves in a time-sensitive environment due to market conditions;

The Company must have sufficient shares available to defend itself from unwanted or ill-timed hostile takeover activity, as a negotiating tool to maximize shareholder value.
