On February 14, 2013, following approval by the stockholders of Mitek Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to provide for an increase in the number of shares of common stock of the Company authorized for issuance from 40,000,000 to 60,000,000 (the “Certificate of Amendment”).
