ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN

 

This Information Statement contains a brief summary of the material aspects of the actions approved by the Board and the Majority Voting Stockholders.

 

AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO DECREASE THE AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK FROM 3,500,000,000 SHARES TO 35,000,000 SHARES

 

The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation authorized the issuance of 3,500,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. On December 9, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Certificate of Amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation, which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, to decrease the amount of authorized Common Stock of the Company from 3,500,000,000 shares to 35,000,000 shares of Common Stock.

 

The Board will file the Amendment with the Secretary of State of Delaware. The decrease in our authorized Common Stock will become effective on the date of filing.

 

Reason for Decrease in Authorized Shares

 

The general purpose and effect of the amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation in authorizing 35,000,000 shares of Common Stock is to facilitate various financing agreements in the future to enable the Company to continue its current business operations.

 

   

 

 

Reasons for and Effect of the Amendment

 

The Board believes that the Company’s stockholders may benefit from the decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock the Company is authorized to issue because potential investors could be wary of such a large number of authorized but unissued shares.  In addition, the decrease in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock could limit some anti-takeover strategies that could be implemented, as the number of shares of Common Stock that are issuable would be decreased which would limit the Company’s ability to issue additional shares of Common Stock and thereby dilute the ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to obtain control of the Company.  

 

This decrease in our authorized common shares will have no material effect on the rights of existing stockholders, since it will not change the percentage of ownership of the Company of any stockholder. Moreover, the adoption of the Action will not of itself without further action of our Board cause or result in any changes in our current capital accounts or outstanding Common Stock.

  

Although we are reducing the authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock compared to outstanding shares of Common Stock due to these Actions, there remains the potential that such Actions could continue to have an anti-takeover effect, such as permitting the issuance of shares to purchasers who might oppose a hostile takeover bid or oppose stockholder efforts to amend or repeal the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company. Using available authorized shares in this manner could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to acquire control of the Company even if such a transaction would be beneficial to stockholders.

 

The Board is not aware of any such actual or contemplated takeover attempt.  Currently, we have no definitive plans or arrangements to issue any such shares, although the Company evaluates from time to time potential transactions that may result in the issuance of shares. Any such use or issuance of our shares would be regardless of whether the Amendment is effectuated.

 

Dissenter’s Rights of Appraisal

 

Neither of §228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law nor our Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws provide our stockholders with dissenters’ or appraisal rights in connection with the Action discussed in this Information Statement

 

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN OR OPPOSITION TO MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

 

As disclosed under the section entitled “Action to be Taken”, the Board, consisting of Michaela Ott, Michael Ott, Robert F. McCullough, Alexander M. Milley, John Abeles, M.D. and Augusto Ocana, approved the Amendment, and Michaela Ott, Michael Ott and Robert F. McCullough, the Majority Voting Stockholders of the Company further approved the Amendment.

 

Except the foregoing and disclosed elsewhere in this Information Statement, being the commencement of our last financial year, none of the following persons has any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by security holdings or otherwise in any matter to be acted upon:

 

1.  Any director or officer of our corporation;
   
2.  Any proposed nominee for election as a director of our corporation; and
   
3. Any associate or affiliate of any of the foregoing persons.

 

The shareholdings of our directors and officer are listed below in the section entitled "Principal Stockholders and Security Ownership of Management".  To our knowledge, the directors have not advised that they intend to oppose the Amendments, as more particularly described herein.

 

   

 

 

OUTSTANDING VOTING SECURITIES

 

As of the date of the Record Date, we are currently authorized to issue 3,500,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.001 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”). As of the close of business on the Record Date, there were 21,055,800 shares of Common Stock, 47,250 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, 93,750 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, 38,333 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, and 19,022 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (Series E Stock) issued and outstanding. The affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock is necessary to approve the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation. The requisite stockholder approval of the amendment was obtained on December 9, 2014.

 

   

 

 

§228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides in substance that unless the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation provides otherwise, stockholders may take action without a meeting of stockholders and without prior notice if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present.
