Hey there:

Well, the first thing to do to be able to issue EV certs and have them 
recognised by the various browsers is to build a CA and issuance regime that 
will pass an audit according to the rules from the CABrowser folks, do a proper 
key ceremony, and then have that audit.

And then, wait until your Root CA Cert and EV OIDs are accepted and shipped in 
a Browser update by the various Browser vendors.

Just adding some OIDs to the server certificate is not enough. 

Have fun.
