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.
