Dear Grid Petroleum Corp. Stockholders:

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT on July 20, 2015, the Board of Directors (a sole director) of Grid Petroleum Corp., a Nevada corporation (hereinafter the “Company,” “we,” “our”), approved the following action:

To authorize a 1 for 1,000 reverse split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock.

The Company obtained the written consent of a stockholder holding 1,000 issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series B Voting Preferred Stock, which is equal to approximately 99% of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding capital stock, as of July 1, 2015 (the “Majority Stockholder”), to effect that reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”).  Pursuant to Rule 14c-2 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Reverse Split will not be effective until twenty (20) days after the date a Definitive Information Statement is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and a copy thereof is mailed to each of the Company’s stockholders.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, we must notify the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority of the Reverse Split by filing the Issuer Company Related Action Notification Form no later than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the Reverse Split.

Our Series B Voting Preferred Stock was created by written consent of the Board of Directors of the Company (a sole director) (the “Board”) as permitted by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended and which may be amended from time to time, and each share of that Series B Preferred Stock has the equivalent vote equal to 4 times the number of shares of our issued and outstanding Common Stock (the “Common Stock”).  Currently, there is one holder of Series B Voting Preferred Stock which holds 1,000 shares of our Series B Voting Preferred Stock, resulting in the Majority Stockholder holding, in the aggregate, approximately 99% of the total voting power of all issued and outstanding voting capital stock of the Company.  Accordingly, your consent is not required and is not being solicited in connection with the approval of the Reverse Split.

THE REVERSE SPLIT HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, NOR HAS THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE FAIRNESS OR MERIT OF THE REVERSE SPLIT NOR UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT.  ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS UNLAWFUL.

ACTION BY BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CONSENTING STOCKHOLDER
 
In accordance with Section 78.315 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”) on July 27, 2015, by written consent, the Board adopted resolutions approving an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation, as amended to date (the “Articles of Incorporation”) to effect the Reverse Split.
 
To obtain the approval of our stockholder for the Reverse Split, we could have convened a special meeting of our stockholders for the specific purpose of voting on the Reverse Split.  However, Section 78.320 of the NRS provides that any action that may be taken at any annual or special meeting of our stockholders may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice if a consent in writing setting forth the action taken is signed by the holders of outstanding shares of voting capital stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to take such action.  To eliminate the costs and management time involved in holding a meeting and obtaining proxies and effect the Reverse Split as early as possible in order to accomplish the purposes hereafter described, we elected to utilize the written consent of the Majority Stockholder.

INTRODUCTION
 
Grid Petroleum Corp., a Nevada corporation with principal executive offices located at 1401 Camino Del Mar, #202, Del Mar, California 92014 (the “Company”), is providing this Information Statement to you.  We encourage you to read this entire Information Statement carefully, any exhibits attached hereto and the documents referred to in this Information Statement.  You may obtain additional information about the Company by following the instructions in “Where You Can Obtain Additional Information” below.

The Board and Majority Shareholder have authorized the Reverse Split.  Any fractional shares will be rounded up to the next whole number.  Stockholders have no rights pursuant to the NRS, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, or the Company’s Bylaws, to exercise dissenters’ rights of appraisal with respect to the Reverse Split.
 
The Board believes the Reverse Split is necessary and advisable in order to maintain the Company’s financing and capital raising ability, comply with the terms and conditions of certain debt instruments and generally maintain our flexibility in today’s competitive and rapidly changing environment.
 
Accordingly, it is the Board’s opinion that the Reverse Split would better position the Company to comply with its contractual obligations, to attract potential business candidates and provide our stockholders a greater potential return.
 
The NRS provide that the written consent of the holders of outstanding shares of voting capital stock having not less than the minimum number of votes which would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted can approve an action in lieu of conducting a special stockholders' meeting convened for the specific purpose of such action.  The NRS, however, require that in the event an action is approved by written consent, a company must provide prompt notice of the taking of any corporate action without a meeting to the stockholders of record who have not consented in writing to such action and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to the company.  Accordingly, this Information Statement is to provide that notice.

This Information Statement contains a brief summary of the material aspects of the Reverse Split, approved by the Board and the Majority Stockholder.

OUTSTANDING SHARES AND VOTING RIGHTS

As of the date of this Information Statement, the Company’s authorized capitalization consisted of (i) 7,500,000,000 shares of common stock, of which 6,898,408,070 shares were issued and outstanding, and (ii) 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of which (a) 1,319,500 shares of Class A Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding and (b) 1,000 shares of Series B Voting Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding.

Common Stock

Each share of the Company’s common stock entitles its holder to one vote on each matter submitted to the Company’s stockholders.  Each share of the Company’s Series B Voting Preferred Stock entitles its holder to votes equal to and counted as 4 times the votes of all of the shares of the Company’s (i) common stock and (ii) other voting preferred stock issued and outstanding on the date of the vote or consent of each matter submitted to the Company’s stockholders.  However, because the Majority Stockholder has consented to the Reverse Split by written consent dated July 27, 2015, in lieu of a special meeting in accordance with Section 78.320 of the NRS, no other stockholder vote or consent will be solicited in connection with the Reverse Split.

Class A Non-Voting Preferred Stock

The holders of the Class A Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock have no voting rights.  Each share of the Class A Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, during that period that begins on January 15, 2016, and terminates on February 15, 2016, at the option of the holder thereof, into one share of the Company’s common stock.

 Series B Voting Preferred Stock
 
On July 1, 2015, by unanimous written consent of the Board (as permitted pursuant to Nevada law), the number, designation, rights, preferences and privileges of the Series B Voting Preferred Stock were established by the Board (as is permitted pursuant to Nevada law).
 
On July 1, 2015, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada (the “Certificate of Designation”) pursuant to which the Company set forth the voting powers, designations, preferences and relative rights of the Series B Voting Preferred Stock.
 
Among other things, each share of Series B Voting Preferred Stock has voting rights equal to and counted as 4 times the votes of all of the shares of the Company’s (i) common stock and (ii) other voting preferred stock issued and outstanding on the date of the vote or consent of each matter submitted to the Company’s stockholders.  For purposes of illustration only, if the total issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock eligible to vote on the dates of a particular vote is 5,000,000, the voting rights of one share of the Series B Voting Preferred Stock is equal to 20,000,000.
 
By written consent of the Board, the Company issued 1,000 shares of Series B Voting Preferred Stock to the Majority Stockholder.  As a result of the voting rights granted to the Series B Voting Preferred Stock, the Majority Stockholder held approximately 99% of the total voting power of all issued and outstanding voting capital stock of the Company on July 1, 2015.
 
As of July 1, 2015, there were issued and outstanding (i) 6,898,408,070 shares of Common Stock; (ii) 1,219,500 shares of Class A Non-Voting Preferred Stock; and (iii) 1,000 shares of Series B Voting Preferred Stock.
 
Based on the foregoing, as of July 1, 2015, the total aggregate amount of votes entitled to vote regarding the approval of the Reverse Split was 27,593,632,280,000.  Pursuant to the NRS at least a majority of the voting equity of the Company, or at least 13,796,816,140,000 votes are required to approve the Reverse Split by written consent.  The Majority Stockholder, which held 27,586,733,871,930 votes equal to approximately 99% of the voting equity of the Company, has voted in favor of the Reverse Split, thereby satisfying the requirement pursuant to the NRS that at least a majority of the voting equity vote in favor of a corporate action by written consent.

The following table sets forth the name of the holder of Series B Voting Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Series B Voting Preferred Stock held by such holder, the total number of votes that such holder voted in favor of the Reverse Split and the percentage of the issued and outstanding voting equity of the Company that voted in favor thereof:

REASON FOR REVERSE SPLIT
 
The Board believes the Reverse Split is necessary and advisable in order to maintain financing and capital raising ability, comply with the terms and conditions of certain financial commitments and related debt instruments and, generally, maintain flexibility in today’s competitive and rapidly changing environment.

The Reverse Split will have the effect of creating newly authorized shares of our common stock.  Any issuance of additional shares of our common stock would probably have the effect of diluting the earnings per share and book value per share of outstanding shares of common stock.  Any additional shares of our common stock, when issued, would have the same rights and preferences as the shares of common stock presently outstanding.  Additional shares of our common stock will be available for issuance by the Board for stock splits or stock dividends, acquisitions, raising additional capital, conversion of debt to equity, stock options, or other corporate purposes.  The Company does not anticipate that it would seek authorization from its stockholders for issuance of such shares, unless required by applicable law. 

 An immediate purpose for the Reverse Split is to provide enough shares of our common stock required to satisfy certain financial commitments evidenced by our convertible debt instruments.  The Board determined that the settlement of these outstanding financial commitments could exceed our authorized shares of common stock.
 
We can provide no assurance that we will not be required to settle all or a portion of our financial commitments prior to effectiveness of the Reverse Split.  If we were required to do so, we would be in default pursuant to certain outstanding convertible debt instruments, which could cause the full principal amount of those certain instruments, together with interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, to the date of acceleration to become, at the holder’s election, immediately due and payable, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.

There is no assurance that any effect on the price of the Company's common stock will result, or that the market price for the Company's common stock, immediately or shortly after the Reverse Split becomes effective, will increase, or that any increase which may occur will be sustained.  The Company cannot control the market's reaction.  Further, there can be no assurance that an increased market price, if it occurs as a result of the Reverse Split, will encourage more broker-dealers or investors to become involved in the Company's common stock.
 
 The Board believes that the Reverse Split and any resulting increase per share price of our common stock could also enhance the acceptability and marketability of our common stock to the financial community and investing public.  Many institutional investors have policies prohibiting them from holding lower-priced stocks in their portfolios, which reduces the number of potential buyers of our common stock.  Additionally, analysts at many brokerage firms are reluctant to recommend lower-priced stocks to their clients or monitor the activity of lower-priced stocks.  Brokerage houses also frequently have internal practices and policies that discourage individual brokers from dealing in lower-priced stocks due to, among other reasons, the trading volatility often associated with lower-priced stocks.  Some of those policies and practices may function to make the processing of trades in low-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers.  Further, because brokers’ commissions on lower-priced stock generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher priced stock, investors in lower-priced stocks pay transaction costs which are a higher percentage of their total share value, which may limit the willingness of individual investors and institutions to purchase our common stock.
 
 
Potential investors who might consider making investments in the Company may be unwilling to do so when the Company has a large number of shares issued and outstanding with little or no stockholders' equity.  In other words, the "dilution" which new investors could experience could discourage them from investing.  A reduction in the total outstanding shares of our common stock may, without any assurance, make the Company's capitalization structure more attractive.
 
For these reasons, the Board has chosen to adopt and recommend the Reverse Split.  The Company is not, however, a party to any binding agreement, acquisition agreement or agreement to raise additional working capital, nor can we be certain that the Reverse Split will have a long-term positive effect on the market price of our common stock or increase the Company’s abilities to enter into financing arrangements in the future.

EFFECT OF THE REVERSE SPLIT

The principal effect of the Reverse Split will be the reduction in the number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding on the effective date of the Reverse Split, from 6,898,408,070 shares, as of the effective date, to approximately 6,898,408 shares (without giving effect to the conversion of the then outstanding convertible indebtedness) depending on the number of whole shares issuable for fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Split).

 
7

 
The Reverse Split will affect all of our common stockholders uniformly. The Reverse Split, however, will adversely affect our common stockholders percentage ownership interests in the Company and their proportionate voting power, as the number of shares of the Series B Voting Preferred Stock, and the shares of the Class A Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock will not be decreased.  Accordingly, the Reverse Split will dilute the equity interests and earnings per share of the existing holders of our common stock.  The shares of our common stock issued pursuant to the Reverse Split will remain fully paid and non-assessable. The Reverse Split will not increase or decrease the market capitalization of the Company, although the capitalization will increase upon the conversion of indebtedness. The Reverse Split is not intended as, and will not have the effect of, a “going private transaction” under Rule 13e-3 of the Exchange Act.
 
The other primary effect of the Reverse Split will be to provide us with additional shares of common stock that will be available for various corporate purposes.  We may use the shares of our common stock for, among other things:
 
 
·
raising working capital through equity issuances;

 
·
providing equity incentives to employees, officers or directors;

 
·
establishing strategic relationships with other companies;

 
·
expanding our business through acquisitions and other investment opportunities;

 
·
paying existing and future obligations and commitments; and

 
·
for general corporate purposes.
 
Other than the shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the indebtedness, we have no definitive plans or arrangements to issue any such shares, although we evaluate, from time to time, potential transactions that may result in the issuance of such shares.  The Board believes that it is advisable and in our best interests to have available additional authorized but unissued shares of common stock adequate to provide for our future needs.  The unissued shares of our common stock will be available for issuance from time to time as may be deemed advisable or required for various purposes, including the issuance of shares in connection with financing or acquisition transactions.

The history of similar reverse stock splits for companies in similar circumstances is varied.  If the Reverse Split is effected and the market price of our common stock declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of the Company’s overall market capitalization may be greater than would occur in the absence of the Reverse Split.

The liquidity of our common stock could be affected adversely by the decreased number of shares of our common stock outstanding after the Reverse Split.  Although the Board believes that a higher stock price could help generate investor interest and increased volume in trading of our common stock, there can be no assurance that the Reverse Split will result in a per share price that will attract institutional investors or investment funds, or that such share price will satisfy the investing guidelines of institutional investors or investment funds.   As a result, the decreased liquidity that may result from having fewer shares issued and outstanding may not be offset by increased investor interest in our common stock. 

The Reverse Split will increase the number of shareholders who own odd-lots. An odd-lot is fewer than 100 shares. Such shareholders may experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares and may have greater difficulty in making sales.
 
CUSIP Number

When the Reverse Split is effectuated, the Company’s common stock will receive a new CUSIP number, which is the number used to identify the Company’s equity securities, and stock certificates with the older CUSIP number will need to be exchanged for stock certificates with the new CUSIP number.  Our common stock will continue to be quoted on the OTC Markets.

Anti-Takeover Effects of the Reverse Split
 
A possible effect of the Reverse Split may be to discourage a merger, tender offer or proxy contest, or the assumption of control by a holder of a large block of the Company’s voting securities and the removal of incumbent management.  The Board could use the additional shares of our common stock available for issuance to resist or frustrate a third-party take-over effort favored by a majority of the independent stockholders that would provide an above market premium by issuing additional shares of our common stock.
 
The Reverse Split is not the result of the Board’s knowledge of an effort to accumulate any of the Company’s securities or to obtain control of the Company by means of a merger, tender offer, solicitation or otherwise.  Nor is the Reverse Split a plan by the Board to adopt a series of amendments to the Articles of Incorporation or our Bylaws to institute an anti-takeover provision.  We do not have any plans or proposals to adopt other provisions or enter into other arrangements that may have material anti-takeover consequences.  As specified above, the reason for the Reverse Split is to increase the amount of shares of common stock that we are able to issue in order to effect the conversion of indebtedness, attract potential investors and conduct equity financings.

Although the Reverse Split is not being undertaken by the Board to institute an anti-takeover provision, in the future the Board could, subject to its fiduciary duties and applicable law, use the unissued shares of our common stock to frustrate persons seeking to take over or otherwise gain control of the Company by, for example, privately placing shares with purchasers who might side with the Board in opposing a hostile takeover bid.  Shares of our common stock could also be issued to a holder that would thereafter have sufficient voting power to assure that any proposal to amend or repeal the Company’s Bylaws or certain provisions of the Articles of Incorporation would not receive the requisite vote.  Such uses of our common stock could render more difficult, or discourage, an attempt to acquire control of the Company, if such transactions were opposed by the Board. However, it is also possible that an indirect result of the anti-takeover effect of the Reverse Split could be that our shareholders will be denied the opportunity to obtain any advantages of a hostile takeover, including, but not limited to, receiving a premium to the then current market price of our common stock, if the same was so offered by a party attempting a hostile takeover of the Company.  We are not aware of any party’s interest in or efforts to engage in a hostile takeover attempt as of the date of this Information Statement.

EFFECTIVE DATE AND EFFECTS OF THE REVERSE SPLIT

Pursuant to Rule 14c-2 promulgated pursuant to the Exchange Act, the Reverse Split will not be effective until at least twenty (20) days after the date on which this Information Statement is filed with the Commission and a copy hereof has been mailed to each of our stockholders.  The Company anticipates that this Information Statement will be mailed to our stockholders on or about September 4, 2015.  Therefore, the Company anticipates that the Reverse Split will be effective on or about September 4, 2015, or such later date as all conditions and requirements to effectuate the Reverse Split are satisfied.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, we must notify the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority of the Reverse Split by filing the Issuer Company Related Action Notification Form no later than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the Reverse Split.

The Company has asked brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward this Information Statement to the beneficial owners of the our common stock and will reimburse such persons for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in forwarding such material.
 
We intend to file, as soon as practicable on or after the twentieth (20th) day after this Information Statement is sent to our shareholders, a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation effectuating the Reverse Split (the “Certificate”).  The Certificate will become effective at the close of business on the date the Certificate is accepted for filing by the Secretary of State of Nevada.  It is presently contemplated that such filing will be made approximately twenty (20) days from the date that this Information Statement is sent to our shareholders.
 
Exchange Act Registration
 
We will continue to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.  Our common stock is, currently, registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and, as a result, we are subject to periodic reporting and other requirements.  The Reverse Split will not affect the registration of our common stock pursuant to the Exchange Act.

 
9

 
Accounting Consequences
 
Upon the Reverse Split becoming effective, the par value per share of our common stock will remain unchanged at $0.001 per share.  As a result, on the effective date of the Reverse Split, the stated capital on the Company's balance sheet attributable to our common stock will be reduced proportionally, based on the exchange ratio of the Reverse Split, from its present amount, and the additional paid-in capital account will be credited with the amount by which the stated capital is reduced.  The net income or loss and net book value per share of common stock will be increased, because there will be fewer shares of our common stock outstanding.  It is not anticipated that any other accounting consequences will result from the Reverse Split.

Effect of the Reverse Split on Convertible Securities

Proportionate adjustments will be made based on the ratio of the Reverse Split to the number of shares our common stock issuable upon the conversion of all outstanding convertible securities entitling the holders to convert into shares of our common stock.  This will result in approximately the same aggregate conversion ratio required to assure the same value of shares of our common stock being delivered upon such conversion immediately following the Reverse Split as was the case immediately preceding the Reverse Split.  The number of shares of our common stock reserved for issuance pursuant to these securities will be proportionately based upon the Reverse Split ratio, subject to the Company’s treatment of fractional shares.

No Going Private Transaction

Notwithstanding the decrease in the number of outstanding shares of our common stock following the Reverse Split, the Board does not intend for the Reverse Split to be the first step in a series of plans or proposals of a “going private transaction” within the meaning of Rule 13e-3 promulgated pursuant to the Exchange Act.

Beneficial Holders of Common Stock (shareholders who hold shares in street name)

Upon the implementation of the Reverse Split, the Company intends to treat shares of its common stock held by shareholders through a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee in the same manner as registered shareholders whose shares of common stock are registered in their names.  Banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees will be instructed to effectuate the Reverse Split for their beneficial holders holding our common stock in street name.  However, those banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees may have procedures different than those for registered shareholders for processing the Reverse Split.  Shareholders who hold shares of our common stock with a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee and have any questions in this regard are encouraged to contact their banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees.

Registered “Book-Entry” Holders of Common Stock (shareholders that are registered on our transfer agent’s books and records but do not hold stock certificates)

Certain of the Company’s registered shareholders may hold some or all of their shares of our common stock electronically in book-entry form with our transfer agent.  These shareholders do not have stock certificates evidencing their ownership of our common stock.  They are, however, provided with statements identifying the number of shares of our common stock registered in their accounts.

Shareholders who hold shares of our common stock electronically in book-entry form with our transfer agent will not need to take action to receive whole shares of post-Reverse Split common stock (the exchange will be automatic), subject to adjustment for treatment of fraction shares.

Holders of Certificated Common Shares

Shareholders holding shares of the Company’s common stock in certificated form will be sent a transmittal letter by the Company’s transfer agent after the Reverse Split is effective.  The letter of transmittal will specify instructions regarding how a shareholder should surrender his, her or its certificate(s) representing the Company’s common stock to our transfer agent in exchange for certificates representing the appropriate number of whole shares of post-Reverse Split common stock.  No new certificates will be issued to a shareholder until such shareholder has surrendered all old certificates, together with a properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, to our transfer agent.  No shareholder will be required to pay a transfer or other fee to exchange his, her or its old certificate(s).  Shareholders will then receive new certificates representing the number of whole common shares that they are entitled to as a result of the Reverse Split, subject to the treatment of fractional shares.  Until surrendered, the Company will deem outstanding old certificates held by shareholders to be cancelled and only represent the number of whole post-Reverse Split shares of our common stock to which those shareholders are entitled, subject to such treatment of fractional shares.  Any old certificates submitted for exchange, whether because of a sale, transfer or other disposition, will automatically be exchanged for new certificates.  If an old certificate has a restrictive legend, the new certificate will be issued with the same restrictive legend.

SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATES AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY STOCK CERTIFICATES UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.

If multiple stockholders sharing an address have received one copy of this Information Statement or any other corporate mailing and would prefer the Company to mail each stockholder a separate copy of future mailings, you may mail notification to, or call the Company at, its principal executive offices. Additionally, if current stockholders with a shared address received multiple copies of this Information Statement or other corporate mailings and would prefer the Company to mail one copy of future mailings to stockholders at the shared address, notification of such request may also be made by mail or telephone to the Company’s principal executive offices.
