# Hyliion files Delaware Section 205 petition to validate 2020 authorized stock increase

## Summary
- Filed petition in Delaware Court of Chancery on Feb 13, 2023, to validate 2020 amendment increasing authorized common stock from 200M to 250M shares.
- Recent Delaware ruling created doubt whether separate class votes were required; Hyliion believes separate vote was not required.
- If unsuccessful, uncertainty could impact ability to issue stock compensation, pursue strategic transactions, or complete financings.
- Validation also sought for restated certificate of incorporation and reclassification of Class A common stock into common stock.
