Action by Written Consent

 

Pursuant to Section 78.320-2 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, any action that may be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may also be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action or actions so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding shares of capital stock holding a least a majority of the voting power needed to approve the action.

 

Record Date

 

The Board of Directors fixed May 5, 2020 (the “Record Date”) as the record date for determining the stockholders entitled receive notice of the foregoing action. Only stockholders of record of the Company at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive this Information Statement.

 

Date, Time and Place Information

 

The Written Consents, dated between May 9, 2020 and June 12, 2020, executed by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock (the “Majority Stockholders”), have been delivered to the Company’s principal executive offices at 555 Fifth Avenue, 14th Floor, New York, New York 10017.

 

     
 

 

Effectiveness of the Written Consent

 

In accordance with the regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act, the authorization of the reverse split may not become effective until the Effective Date.

 

Voting Securities

 

Common Stock. On the Record Date, there were 627,092,904 shares of the Common Stock issued and outstanding. Each share of Common Stock entitles its holder to one vote on the matters put to a vote of the Company’s stockholders.

 

The Company’s stockholders entitled to vote were calculated, as of the Record Date, in order to determine the number of shares of the Common Stock necessary to be voted to approve the reverse split. On the Record Date, the Majority Stockholders owned or had the right to vote directly or indirectly 441,017,329, shares of the Common Stock, constituting approximately 70.33% of the shares entitled to be voted in matters to be present to the Company’s stockholders for a vote. All of the Majority Stockholders, including all of the directors and officers of the Company, cast all of the shares of Common Stock owned by them in favor of the reverse split.

 

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Holders and Management

 

The table below sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of May 5, 2020 by:

 

each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock;

 

each of our directors;

 

each of our executive officers; and

 

our executive officers and directors as a group.

 

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting and investment power. Under SEC rules, a person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of securities which may be acquired by such person upon the exercise of options and warrants or the conversion of convertible securities within 60 days from the date on which beneficial ownership is to be determined. Each beneficial owner’s percentage ownership is determined by dividing the number of shares beneficially owned by that person by the base number of outstanding shares, increased to reflect the beneficially-owned shares underlying options, warrants or other convertible securities included in that person’s holdings, but not those underlying shares held by any other person.

 

Unless indicated otherwise, the address for each person named is c/o Sparta Commercial Services, Inc., 555 Fifth Ave, 14th Floor, New York, New York 10017.

ACTION

 

DECREASE THE NUMBER OF ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK THE COMPANY

 

The Company’s Board of Directors unanimously recommended, and the Majority Stockholders have approved, a reverse split of 1 for 100 shares of the outstanding shares of Common Stock held by stockholders of record on the Effective Date. If, as a result of the reverse split, a stockholder is left with a fractional share, such fractional share shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.

 

Reasons for the Reverse Split.

 

The effect of the reverse split will be a decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock which will generally cause a corresponding increase in the per share trading price of the common stock. However, because some investors may view the reverse stock split negatively, there can be no assurance that the market price of the Common Stock will reflect proportionately the reverse stock split, that any particular price may be achieved, or that any price gain will be sustained in the future. Company’s management and Board of Directors believe that a higher per share trading price will broaden the Company’s potential shareholders by making it possible for additional potential shareholders to purchase the stock who are presently prohibited from doing so by their brokerage firms, which by policy typically will not allow trading in shares trading below a certain price per share or may charge additional fees for trading the lower priced stock.
