This information statement (“Information Statement”) is being made available to the shareholders of record Canbiola, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Company,” “CANB,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) as of the close of business on April 12, 2019 (“Record Date”).

GENERAL OVERVIEW OF ACTIONS

 

The Board of Directors has recommended, and the holders of a majority of the voting stock of CANB have adopted resolutions, to effect the actions listed in this Information Statement. This Information Statement is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is provided to CANB’s shareholders pursuant to Section 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”).

 

Through the written consent of its Board of Directors and stockholders holding a majority of the Company’s voting stock, the Company has approved the appointment of Marco Alfonsi and Stanley Teeple to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Director Appointment”).

 

 
 

 

Holders of 159,287,477 of the 535,858,645 common shares issued and outstanding as of the Voting Record Date, and 16 out of the 17 Series A Preferred Shares (representing 320,000,000 votes out of 340,000,000) outstanding as of the Voting Record Date, approved the Share Increase. Thus, from the 875,858,645 votes eligible to be cast in this matter, 479,287,477 of the votes, or approximately 54.72%, approved the Share Increase by written consent.

 

The Director Appointment will become effective no sooner than 40 days after we mail the Notice of Stockholder Action Taken by Written Consent to our stockholders. This notice is first being mailed to our stockholders on or about June 14, 2019.

 

In order to obtain the approval of our stockholders for the Director Appointment, we could have convened a special meeting of the stockholders for the specific purpose of voting on such matter. However, Section 607.0704 of the Florida Business Corporations Act (the “FBCA”) provides that any action required or permitted to be taken at a shareholders’ meeting may be taken without a meeting. In order to eliminate the costs and management time involved in holding a meeting and obtaining proxies and in order to effect the Director Appointment as early as possible in order to accomplish the purposes hereafter described, we elected to utilize the written consent of a majority of the holders our Common Stock and Preferred Stock. Under the FBCA and our bylaws, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding stock entitled to vote thereon is required to approve the Director Appointment.

 

This Information Statement is intended to provide such notice as required by the FBCA to provide after the taking of the corporate action without a meeting to the holders of record of our stock who have not consented in writing to such action.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based on our review of the reports filed by Reporting Persons, we believe that, during the year ended December 31, 2018, the following Reporting Persons did not meet all applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements: (i) Stanley Teeple, (ii) David Posel, and (iii)Carl Dilley. Otherwise, we believe that the Reporting Persons met such filing requirements.
