SUMMARY
The following is a summary of certain information contained elsewhere in this Information Statement. Reference is made to, and this Summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information contained in this Information Statement and the attached annexes. Unless otherwise defined, capitalized terms used in this Summary have the meanings ascribed to them elsewhere in this Information Statement. You are urged to read this Information Statement and the Annexes in their entirety.
THE STOCKHOLDER CONSENT | STOCKHOLDER VOTES WILL NOT BE SOLICITED. The General Corporation Law of Delaware allows the Company to take the following actions as authorized by a resolution adopted by the holders of the majority of our outstanding stock entitled to vote thereon. A consent signed by a majority of the Company's shareholders on September 20, 2004 were as follows: approve the reverse stock split of the Company's Common Stock (par value $0.0001) so that upon effectuation of the split, one (1) New Share (of the Company's Common Stock) will be issued for each two hundred (200) shares of the Company's Common Stock then currently issued and outstanding with each fractional share rounded up to the next whole share (the "Reverse Stock Split") except that the Reverse Stock Split shall not affect the share holdings of those shareholders holding of record one (1) or fewer shares; and that the Company's name be changed to Lions Petroleum Inc. The above resolution s were duly adopted by the holders of the majority of our outstanding stock entitled to vote thereon, namely, D. Wayne Hartford, Bonita Ann Hartford, Hartford Investments Corporation II, Bonhart Holdings Corporation and Pure Energy Inc. , who collectively owned common stock giving them the voting power of 15,389,623 pre-split shares which represented approximately 52.84 % of the Company's Common Stock (par value $0.0001). No vote of any other stockholder is necessary and stockholder votes are not being solicited. |

THE COMPANY | Energy Visions Inc. (the "Company") is incorporated in the State of Delaware and is in the business of research and developing fuel cells and batteries. The Company has no plans of becoming a private company and there are no plans to "take the Company private". |
| |
THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK | As of the date of this filing , the Company had 29,126,160 shares of the Company's Common Stock (par value $0.0001) outstanding.
Under the terms of the Reverse Stock Split, the Company will issue one (1) new share (the "New Share") of the Company's Common Stock for each two hundred (200) shares (the "Old Shares") of the Company's Common Stock held (the "Reverse Stock Split"). All fractional share amounts resulting from the Reverse Stock Sp lit are to be rounded up to the next whole New Share. The Reverse Split shall not affect the share holdings of those shareholders holding of record one (1) or fewer shares.
The Reverse Stock Split, as approved by a majority of the shareholder s of the Company, will likely impact the Company in several respects. First, based on the issued and outstanding common and preferred stock as of September 20, 2004 the number of Common Shares outstanding may be reduced from 29,126,160 to approximately 145,631 ( subject to adjustment taking into account shares issued to round up any fractional share amounts and the lack of any impact on shareholders whose holdings, of record, were one (1) or fewer shares). Please note that the post-consolidation numbers may vary depending on the final issued and outstanding shares and the final and determined ratio for consolidation. Since the Company's Certificate of Incorporation authorizes an aggregate of 50,000,000 common shares and 5,000,000 preferred shares and before the Reverse Stock Split 29,126,160 of common shares had been issued, the reduction in the number of issued and outstanding common shares will allow the Company's Board of Directors to issue additional shares of the Company's Common Stock to raise capital, to effect a merger or acquisition of an existing business, and for compensation of employees and consultants. Secondly, the Company believes that if the Company is able to successfully develop or acquire its business, there is some possibility that the trading range for the Company's Common Stock may be at a higher level with fewer shares outstanding. |
THE STOCKHOLDER CONSENT
Delaware Corporation Law permits the holders of a majority of the shares of its outstanding voting stock to approve and authorize actions by written consent of a majority of the shares outstanding as if the action were undertaken at a duly constituted meeting of the Company's shareholders. D. Wayne Hartford, Bonita Ann Hartford, Hartford Investments Corporation II , Bonhart Holdings Corporation and Pure Energy Inc. owned common shares giving them the voting power of 15,389,623 pre-split shares of the Company's Common Stock which represented approximately 52.84 % of the voting power of the Company's Common Stock (par value $0.0001) and they approved the Reverse Stock Split of the Company's Common Stock on September 20, 2004. Accordingly, no vote of any other stockholder is necessary and stockholder votes are not being solicited.
