AMENDMENT TO OUR COMPANY'S ARTICLES ----------------------------------- The board of directors of the Company on January 20, 2006, adopted a resolution unanimously approving and recommending to the Company's stockholders for their approval an amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to authorize a new class of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share, and to authorize the board of directors to issue one or more series of the preferred stock with such designations, rights, preferences, limitations and/or restrictions as it should determine by vote of a majority of such directors. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation currently only permits the Company to issue shares of common stock, with limited authority to prescribe such other classes or series of stock. This, the Company believes, has limited the Company's flexibility in seeking additional working capital. The board of directors has recommended that the Certificate of Incorporation be amended to authorize a class of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to allow the board of directors of the Company the widest possible flexibility in setting the terms of preferred stock that may be issued in the future. The Company will, therefore, be afforded the greatest flexibility possible in seeking additional financing, as the board of directors deems appropriate in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment. The Company currently has no commitments or plans for the issuance of any shares of preferred stock. Under our Articles of Incorporation as amended by this amendment, the board of directors will have the right, without further stockholder approval or action, to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, having such rights and preferences, including voting rights, as the board of directors may determine. The ability of the Company to issue such shares of preferred stock may, under certain circumstances, make it more difficult for a third party to gain control of the Company (e.g., by means of a tender offer), prevent or substantially delay such a change of control, discourage bids for the common stock at a premium, or otherwise adversely affect the market price of the common stock. Our Company obtained shareholder approval for the amendment to authorize a new class of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, by written consent on January 23, 2006, from our majority shareholder holding 80,000,000, or 69.56%, of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. The amendment authorizing the preferred stock will not become effective until (i) at least 20 days after we deliver the Information Statement to our shareholders of record, (ii) we file the Information Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission and (iii) the Certificate of Amendment has been accepted for filing by the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. DISSENTERS' RIGHTS ------------------ Pursuant to the Private Corporations Law of the State of Nevada, shareholders of our common stock are not entitled to dissenters' rights of appraisal with respect to the authorization of the new class of preferred stock. FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION ------------------------------- For more detailed information on our Company, including financial statements, you may refer to our Form 10-KSB and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.

Name of corporation: Zingo, Inc. 2. The articles have been amended as follows: (provide article numbers, if available): Article IV of the corporation's articles of incorporation is amended to read in its entirety as follows: Section 4.01. The total number of shares of stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is Two Hundred Sixty Million (260,000,000), of which Two Hundred Fifty Million (250,000,000) are common stock, having a par value each of One-tenth of One Cent ($0.001) per share, and Ten Million (10,000,000) are preferred stock, having a par value each of One-tenth of One Cent ($0.001) per share. Notwithstanding the foregoing these Articles hereby vest the board of directors of the Corporation with such authority as may be necessary to prescribe such classes, series and numbers of each class or series of stock. In addition the board is hereby vested with such authority as may be necessary to prescribe the voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights of each class or series of stock created. All classes of stock may be issued form time to time without action by the Stockholders. Authority is hereby expressly vested in the board of directors of the Corporation, subject to the provisions of this Article IV and to the limitations prescribed by law, to authorize the issue from time to time of one or more series of preferred stock and with respect to each such series to fix by resolution or resolutions adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the whole board of directors providing for the issue of such series, the voting powers, full or limited, if any, of the shares of such series and the designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. The authority of the board of directors with respect to each series shall include, but not be limited to, the determination or fixing of the following: (a) The number of shares constituting the series and the designation of such series; (b) The dividend rate on the shares of such series, the conditions and dates upon which such dividends shall be payable, the relation which such dividends shall bear to the dividends payable on any other class or classes or series of the Corporation's capital stock, and whether such dividends shall be cumulative or non-cumulative; (c) Whether the shares of such series shall be subject to redemption by the Corporation at the option of either the Corporation or the holder or both or upon the happening of a specified event, and, if made subject to any such redemption, the times or events, prices and other terms and conditions of such redemption; (d) The terms and amount of any sinking fund provided for the purchase or redemption of the shares of such series; (e) Whether or not the shares of such series shall be convertible into, or exchangeable for, at the option of either the holder or the Corporation or upon the happening of a specified event, shares of any other class or classes or any other series of the same or any other class or classes of the Corporation's capital stock, and, if provision be made for conversion or exchange, the times or events, prices, rates, adjustments, and other terms and conditions of such conversions or exchanges; (f) The restrictions, if any, on the issue or reissue of any additional preferred stock; (g) The rights of the holders of the shares of such series upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of shares of that series; and (h) The provisions as to voting, optional and/or other special rights and preferences, if any. Dividends on outstanding shares of preferred stock shall be paid or declared and set apart for payment before any dividends shall be paid or declared and set apart for payment on the common stock with respect to the same dividend period. If upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the assets available for distribution to holders of shares of preferred stock of all series shall be insufficient to pay such holders the full preferential amount to which they are entitled, then such assets shall be distributed ratably among the shares of all series of preferred stock in accordance with the respective preferential amounts (including unpaid cumulative dividends, if any) payable with respect thereto. Section 4.02. No Preemptive Rights. Unless otherwise determined by the board of directors, holders of the stock of the Corporation shall not have any preference, preemptive right, or right of subscription to acquire any shares of the Corporation authorized, issued or sold, or to be authorized, issued or sold, and convertible into shares of the Corporation, nor to any right of subscription thereto.

The vote by which the stockholders holding shares in the corporation entitling them to exercise at least a majority of the voting power, or such greater proportion of the voting power as may be required in the case of a vote by classes or series, or as may be required by the provisions of the articles of incorporation have voted in favour of the amendment is: _____% 4.
