Section 3 – Securities and Trading Markets


Item 3.03.		Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

On January 17, 2009, Stinger Systems, Inc. (the “Company”), effected the previously disclosed 1-for-5 reverse stock split. The reverse stock split was approved by stockholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock by written consent on August 25, 2008. For further information regarding the reverse stock split, see the information statement on Schedule 14C filed with the SEC on October 2, 2008. Trading of the Company’s common stock on the split-adjusted basis began prior to the market open on January 20, 2009 under the symbol “STYS.OB.”

As a result of the reverse stock split, every five shares of common stock of the Company that were issued and outstanding were converted into one share of common stock of the Company, thus reducing the number of the Company’s outstanding common stock from approximately 20.0 million shares to approximately 4.0 million shares. Fractional shares created as a result of the reverse stock split will be paid out in cash by the Company. Each shareholder will hold the same percentage of the Company’s outstanding common stock immediately following the reverse stock split as he or she held immediately prior to the reverse stock split, except for adjustments for fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split.
