ITEM 5. OTHER EVENT
On December 1, 2000, at the annual meeting of shareholders of the
Registration, a majority of the shareholders approved an amendment to the
registrant's Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the registrant
from American Tire Corporation to "Amerityre Corporation". The amendment to
the registrant's articles of incorporation was filed the Secretary of State of
the State of Nevada on December 6, 2000.
As a result of the name change, the NASD has assigned the registrant's common
stock a new symbol for trading on the NASD's OTC Bulletin Board. The new
symbol issued by the NASD is "AMTY", which will replace the registrant's
former symbol "ATYR" effective the opening of trading on Tuesday, December 12,
2000.
