PROXY STATEMENT FOR SPECIAL MEETING
OF THE SHAREHOLDERS OF
CARDIFF INTERNATIONAL, INC.
411 N New River Drive E
Unit 2202
Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301
This proxy statement is first being mailed on
or about Thursday February 26, 2015 by Cardiff International, Inc. The proxy accompanying this proxy statement is being
solicited on behalf of our board of directors.
Record Date, Voting Securities, Quorum and Voting Tabulation
Our board of directors has fixed the close
of business on February 11th, 2015 as the record date for determining the shareholders entitled to receive notice of,
and to vote at, the Special Meeting, or any adjournments or postponements thereof. As of the record date, we had 5,088,559
shares of Preferred B Series stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote on the matters described herein (the “Voting
Shares”). Each whole Voting Share entitles the holder thereof to one vote and each fractional Voting Share entitles the
holder thereof to a factional vote. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the Voting Shares is
necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Special Meeting. If a quorum exists, action on each matter
is approved if the votes cast in favor of the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action. Unless otherwise marked
or indicated on the proxy, the shares will be voted “FOR” the approval of each of the proposals discussed herein.
Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Special
Meeting will be tabulated by the inspector of election in conjunction with information received from our transfer agent. The
inspector of election will also determine whether or not a quorum is present.
Shares which abstain from voting as to the proposals
and shares held in “street name” by brokers or nominees who indicate on their proxies that they do not have discretionary
authority to vote such shares as to any proposal (“broker non-votes”), will be counted for purposes of determining
whether the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present at the meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal has been obtained,
but will have the effect of reducing the number of affirmative votes required to achieve the majority vote on the proposal.
Revocability of Proxy
Any proxy given pursuant to this proxy solicitation
may be revoked by the person giving it at any time prior to its use by delivering to us a written notice of revocation, a duly
executed proxy bearing a later date or by attending the Special Meeting and voting in person.
Interest of Certain Persons in Matters to be Acted Upon
No director, executive officer, nominee for
election as a director, associate of any director, executive officer, nominee for election as a director or any other person has
any substantial interest, direct or indirect, through security holdings or otherwise, in the actions described in this proxy statement
which is not shared by all other shareholders.

rights of dissenters under the laws of the State of Florida with respect to any of the matters proposed to be acted upon herein.

to the attention of our Secretary at the address of our principal executive offices. We urge you to submit any such
proposal by a means which will permit proof of the date of delivery, such as certified mail, return receipt requested.

PROPOSAL – TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
TO EXTEND THE LOCK-UP/LEAK-OUT HOLDING PERIOD FOR A MAXIMUM OF ONE YEAR.
General
As more fully explained below, we believe that it is in the best
interests of our company and our shareholders to amend section 1 & 1.1 of the Lock-Up/Leak-Out Agreement increasing the holding
period for Series B Preferred Shares. On February 5, 2015, our board of directors approved an amendment to the Lock Up/Leak
Out Agreement for Series B Preferred Shareholder to amend the Lock-Up/Leak-Out Agreement for Series B Shareholders to increase
the Holding Period until after an S1 Registration Statement is filed or a maximum of 12 months following this filing; The proposed
amendment is referred to in this proxy statement as the “Authorized Amendment”. If approved by our shareholders,
the Authorized Amendment will become effective when it is filed with the Secretary of State of Florida.
Reasons for the Increase Holding Period
As of February 11th, 2015, 5,088,559
shares of Preferred B Series stock have been issued and outstanding. If the Authorized Amendment is approved by our shareholders,
it will protect our common stock shareholders, stabilize share price, attract investors, and allow the Company to acquire larger
businesses. If the Authorized Amendment is not approved our Common Shareholders will suffer significant loss. We know that our
growth depends on the use of Preferred shares as part of financing transactions pursuant to which we would issue shares of our
common stock.
Effects of the Increase Holding Period
The amendment will increase the holding period
of Series B Preferred Stock until after our S-1 Registration Statement becomes effective or a maximum of 12 months following this
filing. While Cardiff believes the company will qualify for a Secondary Public Offering, uplifting to a qualified Exchange within
the next 12 months, we cannot guarantee this. Currently Cardiff’s Assets/Revenue/Cash/Debt do not qualify for an underwriting,
the NYSE-AMEX Exchange or NASDAQ. However, Cardiff anticipates meeting the requirements of the NYSE-AMEX Exchange within the next
6 month period.
Our
common stock is traded on OTC Markets which is a quotation service, not an exchange. OTC Markets does not reserve the right to
refuse to list or to de-list
any stock which has unusual voting provisions that nullify or restrict its voting.
Advantages and Disadvantages of amending Section 1 & 1.1
of the Lock-Up/Leak-Out
As noted above, increasing the holding period
will protect our common shareholders, stabilize share price, attract investors, attempt to move to the NYSE-AMEX Exchange and provide
the Company with the ability to acquire larger acquisitions. There is no disadvantage to existing Preferred B Series shareholders
unless the Company fails as this Amendment protects their investment.
Consequences to the Company of Failure to
Approve the Authorized Amendment to amend Section 1 of the Lock-Up/Leak-Out Agreement governing Preferred B Series Shares
As noted above, the Company
believes if not approved, it would have long-term negative effects --- both on capital formation as well as negatively impacting
companies existing public shareholders. Holding periods are the mechanisms that enable companies who raise capital privately, to
use that capital to grow the company for an established time period before new investors can “cash out” which would
impact the market for the company’s shares. It is Cardiff’s opinion, that without an extension of the holding period,
Cardiff could face three major negative impacts: First, it will greatly dilute common shareholders; Second, it will depress the
price of shares significantly; Third, it will effect long-term investors which would deprive the Company of funding.
Vote by Board of Directors
On February 5th, the board of directors
voted to approve the Authorized Amendment in order to amend section 1 of the Lock-Up/Leak-Out Agreement governing Preferred B Series
shares.
Based on the foregoing discussion, the board
of directors requests that shareholders approve the following resolution:
RESOLVED, that paragraph 1 & 1.1 of the Lock-Up/Leak-Out
Agreement to read as follows:
1.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Preferred B Series shareholders will not be allowed to convert their B certificates
until after an S1 Registration Statement becomes effective and/or hold their certificates for an additional 12 month period following
this filing. Following the amended holding period, the shareholder may sell as agreed to in the Lock-Up/Leak-Out Agreement as follows:
2.
The Shareholder shall be allowed to convert to Common Shares and sell an amount of the Shareholder’s Preferred Stock
equal to 1% (one percent) of the total number of Preferred shares owned, on a monthly basis, for a period of four (4) years. Beginning
in the first (1st) month of the fifth (5th) year, the Leak-Out agreement shall cease and the shareholder
may liquidate the balance of their Preferred shares remaining. Shareholders understands that a “conversion” shall
not exceed 4.9% of the issued and outstanding securities of the Company (to be defined for all purposes hereof as the amount indicated
in the Company’s most recent filing with the SEC) during each month of the four (4) calendar years, (the “Leak-Out
Period”).
Form of Amendment
Assuming that our shareholders approve this
proposal, we intend to file the Authorized Amendment, the form of which is attached to this proxy statement as Annex 1, with the
Secretary of State of the State of Florida as soon as practicable.
Effective Date
The Authorized Amendment will become effective
upon filing amendment to the Articles of Incorporation.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU
VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF
AMENDING THE LOCK-UP/LEAK-OUT
AGREEMENT SECTION 1 & 1.1
