Item 3.03 – Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders

On January 18, 2013, Pacific Gold Corp. (the “Company”) announced that, effective upon market open on January 22, 2013, every twenty shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock, par value $0.0000000001 (the "Common Stock"), will convert into one share of Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”).  Any fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split will be rounded up to the next whole share. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, the total number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock will decrease from 3,867,674,530 pre-split shares to approximately 193,383,727 shares after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split.  A copy of the Company’s Press Release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

Item 5.03 – Amendments to Articles of Incorporation of Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year

The Company took corporate action to implement the Reverse Stock Split (see Item 3.03 above) by filing a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. In addition to the Reverse Stock Split, the Certificate of Amendment will also reduce its total number of the Company’s authorized shares of common stock from 5,000,000,000 to 3,000,000,000.  A copy of the Certificate of Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
