NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT


GENERAL INFORMATION


To the Holders of Common Stock of Global Boatworks Holdings, Inc.:


This Information Statement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is being furnished, pursuant to Section 14C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to the holders (the “Stockholders”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Global Boatworks Holdings, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), to notify the Stockholders that on October 15, 2020, the Company received the written consent in lieu of a meeting of the holders of a majority of the total voting power of all issued and outstanding voting capital of the Company (the “Majority Stockholders”).  


The Majority Stockholders authorized amending the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to change the name of the Company from Global Boatworks Holdings, Inc. to R3 Holdings, Inc. and symbol change to RTHI, or an alternate appropriate trading symbol which relates to the new Name (the “Name and Symbol Change”) of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”).  


On October 15, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) approved, and recommended to the Majority Stockholders that they approve the Name and Symbol Change.  On October 15, 2020, the Majority Stockholders approved the Action by written consent in lieu of a meeting, in accordance with Florida law.  Accordingly, your consent is not required and is not being solicited in connection with the approval of the Name and Symbol Change.  


WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND A PROXY.

 

This Information Statement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is being furnished, pursuant to Section 14C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to the holders (the “Stockholders”) of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company to notify the Stockholders of the Name and Symbol Change.  Stockholders of record at the close of business on October 15, 2020, are entitled to notice of this stockholder action by written consent. Because this action has been approved by the holders of the required majority of the voting power of our voting stock, no proxies were or are being solicited. The Name and Symbol Change will not be effected until at least 20 calendar days after the mailing of the Information Statement accompanying this Notice.  We will mail the Notice of Stockholder Action by Written Consent to the Stockholders on or about October 26, 2020.  We anticipate that the Name and Symbol Change will become effective on or about November 6, 2020, at such time as a certificate of amendment to our Articles of Incorporation is filed with the Department of State of Florida, Division of Corporations.

WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY

AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY INFORMATION STATEMENT


INFORMATION STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 14C OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED

 

THIS IS NOT A NOTICE OF A SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS AND NO STOCKHOLDER MEETING WILL BE HELD TO CONSIDER ANY MATTER DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE ACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY HOLDERS OF A MAJORITY OF OUR COMMON STOCK. WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY. THERE ARE NO DISSENTERS RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THE ACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT.


INTRODUCTION


The Florida Business Corporation Act (the FBCA) provides in part that any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if, before or after the action, a written consent thereto is signed by stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power, except that if a different proportion of voting power is required for such an action at a meeting, then that proportion of written consents is required.


In order to eliminate the costs and management time involved in obtaining proxies and in order to affect the above actions as early as possible in order to accomplish the purposes of the Company as herein described, the Board consented to the utilization of, and did in fact obtain, the written consent of the Consenting Stockholders who collectively own shares representing a majority of our Common Stock.


The entire cost of furnishing this Information Statement will be borne by the Company. The Company may request brokerage houses, nominees, custodians, fiduciaries and other like parties to forward this Information Statement to the beneficial owners of the Common Stock held of record by them and will reimburse such persons for their reasonable charges and expenses in connection therewith.


In accordance with the foregoing, we will mail the Notice of Stockholder Action by Written Consent on or about October 15, 2020.


This Information Statement contains a brief summary of the material aspects of the Name and Symbol Change approved by the Board of Global Boatworks Holdings, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) and the Majority Stockholders.


Dissenters Right of Appraisal

 

No dissenters or appraisal rights under the Florida Business Corporation Act are afforded to the Company s stockholders as a result of the approval of the actions set forth above.



ACTION TO BE TAKEN


SUMMARY


The Majority Stockholders authorized amending the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to change the name of the Company from Global Boatworks Holdings, Inc. to R3 Holdings, Inc. and symbol change to RTHI,



1



or an alternate appropriate trading symbol which relates to the new Name (the “Name and Symbol Change”) of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”).  


This Information Statement is being distributed pursuant to the requirements of Section 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act) to the Company’s stockholders on the Record Date. The Name and Symbol Change will become effective on the date that we file the Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company (the “Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida.  We intend to file the Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida promptly after the twentieth (20th) day following the date on which this Information Statement is mailed to the Stockholders.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, we must first notify FINRA of the intended Name and Symbol Change by filing the Issuer Company Related Action Notification Form no later than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated record date of such action.  Our failure to provide such notice may constitute fraud under Section 10 of the Exchange Act.  Our first choice for trading symbol is RTHI. However, FINRA allows us to choose three possible trading symbols as part of the application process and at this time we do not know what the new trading symbol will be. Neither the Name Change nor the Symbol Change will become effective until approved by FINRA.  

 

The entire cost of furnishing this Information Statement will be borne by the Company.


REASONS


We believe that changing the name of the Company to R3 Holdings, Inc. will more accurately reflect and represent to the public the business of the Company.  In connection with the Name and Symbol Change, we intend to file with FINRA a request to obtain a new ticker symbol.  Our request for a new ticker symbol, however, will not be processed until sixty (60) days after FINRA has announced our Name and Symbol Change to the market.


VOTE REQUIRED

 

The vote, which was required to approve the above actions, was the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Company s voting stock. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one (1) vote for each share of Common Stock held. The date used for purposes of determining the number of outstanding shares of voting stock of the Company entitled to vote is October 15, 2020. The record date for determining those shareholders of the Company entitled to receive this Information Statement is the close of business on October 15, 2020. (the Record Date ). As of the Record Date, the Company had outstanding 205,670,136 shares of Common Stock. Holders of the Common Stock have no preemptive rights. All outstanding shares are fully paid and nonassessable. The transfer agent for the Common Stock is Island Stock Transfer, 15500 Roosevelt Blvd., Suite 301, Clearwater, FL 33760, Telephone: (727) 289-0010.


WHEN THE NAME WILL GO INTO EFFECT


Prior to filing the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation reflecting the Name and Symbol Change, we must first notify FINRA by filing the Issuer Company Related Action Notification Form no later than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated record date of the Name and Symbol Change.  Our failure to provide such notice may constitute fraud under Section 10 of the Exchange Act.

INTERESTS OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

 

Our directors and executive officers have no substantial interests, directly or indirectly, in the matters set forth in this Name and Symbol Change Proposal except to the extent of their ownership of shares of our Common Stock.


VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF


The Florida Business Corporation Act provides that any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of a corporation, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock, having not less than the



2



minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.

 

To eliminate the costs and management time involved in soliciting and obtaining proxies to approve the actions and to effectuate the Actions as early as possible to accomplish the purposes of the Company as hereafter described, the Board of Directors of the Company voted to utilize, and did in fact obtain, the written consent of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Company.


Set forth below is information concerning the ownership as of the Record Date of the common stock of the Company by the persons who were the sole shareholders to sign the shareholders’ written consent.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION


We are subject to the disclosure requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in accordance therewith, file reports, information statements and other information, including annual and quarterly reports on Form 10-K and 10-Q, respectively, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Reports and other information filed by the Company can be inspected and copied at the public reference facilities maintained by the SEC at Room 1024, 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, DC 20549. Copies of such material can also be obtained upon written request addressed to the SEC, Public Reference Section, 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549 at prescribed rates. In addition, the SEC maintains a web site on the Internet (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, information statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC through the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System.


DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS TO SECURITY HOLDERS SHARING AN ADDRESS


If hard copies of the materials are requested, we will send only one Information Statement and other corporate mailings to stockholders who share a single address unless we received contrary instructions from any stockholder at that address. This practice, known as “householding,” is designed to reduce our printing and postage costs. However, the Company will deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of the Information Statement to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the Information Statement was delivered. You may make such a written or oral request by (a) sending a written notification stating (i) your name, (ii) your shared address and (iii) the address to which the Company should direct the additional copy of the Information Statement, to the Company at 1707 North Charles Street, Suite 200A, Baltimore, Maryland  21201, Attn: Laurin Leonard; telephone (443) 863-7234.

  

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.
