The vote comes days after Chaince established an at-the-market program allowing up to $300 million of stock sales.<\/p>\n<p>Approval would give the board substantially wider options for future financing and capital management. Actual share issuance and any reverse split would remain subject to later company action, making Monday\u2019s decision a vote on the scale of that authority.<\/p>\n<h2>The authority shareholders are weighing<\/h2>\n<p>Proposal Three would create 19 billion additional authorized shares, raising the ceiling to 20 billion, according to the company\u2019s annual-meeting proxy. Authorized shares set the maximum available for issuance under the company\u2019s governing documents; outstanding shares reflect stock already issued.<\/p>\n<p>Proposal Four would let the board conduct one or more reverse splits through the third anniversary of the Aug. 24 meeting. Each split could range from 2-for-1 to 200-for-1, with the cumulative ratio across all splits under the authority capped at 4,000-for-1. The board would choose whether and when to use that authority.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cs-article-embed\">\n<p> <span class=\"cs-article-embed__related-reading\">Related Reading<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"cs-article-embed__title\">Zero mining revenue, 98% cash collapse, 2 million mysterious shares sets up miner&#8217;s 7 billion share survival play<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"cs-article-embed__arrow\" aria-hidden=\"true\"> <i class=\"fa-light fa-arrow-up-right\"\/> <\/span> <\/div>\n<p>Both proposals require an affirmative simple majority of votes cast by eligible ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy.
