PROXY STATEMENT
FOR A SPECIAL MEETING OF THE STOCKHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON DECEMBER 8, 2006
This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors for Worldbid Corporation (the “Company” or “Worldbid”) for use at a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders to be held at 11:00 am Pacific Standard Time, on December 8, 2006 at Suite 1880, 1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
This Proxy Statement, Notice of Meeting and the enclosed form of proxy are expected to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders on or about November 28, 2006.
The Company does not expect that any matters other than those referred to in this Proxy Statement and the Notice of Meeting will be brought before the special meeting. However, if other matters are properly presented before the special meeting, the persons named as proxy appointees will vote upon such matters in accordance with their best judgment. The grant of a proxy also will confer discretionary authority on the persons named as proxy appointees to vote in accordance with their best judgment on matters incidental to the conduct of the special meeting.
The Company’s Board of Directors is soliciting proxies for the purpose of obtaining stockholder approval for a reorganization of the Company (the “Reorganization”) consisting of the following:
| 1. | The merger (the “Merger”) of the Company with Royalite Petroleum Corp. (“Royalite”), with the Company continuing as the surviving entity; and |
| | |
| 2. | The pro rata distribution (the “Spin-off”) of all the outstanding shares of Worldbid International Inc. (“Worldbid Sub”) to the stockholders of the Company. |
Approval is being sought for the Reorganization pursuant to the provisions of the merger agreement and plan of merger, entered into on August 23, 2006, between the Company and Royalite (the “Merger Agreement”). The Company’s obligation to complete the Merger is conditional upon the Company obtaining approval for the Merger from its stockholders and upon the Company’s completion of the Spinoff.
If the Reorganization is approved and completed, the Company’s stockholders will own the following:
| (a) | shares in the common stock of the corporation resulting from the merger of the Company and Royalite (although the Company will continue after the Merger as the surviving entity, to avoid confusion, the term “Mergeco” is used throughout this Proxy Statement to refer to the Company after the Merger has been completed) equal to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock owned by those stockholders prior to the Merger; and |
| | |
| (b) | shares in the common stock of Worldbid Sub equal to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock owned by those stockholders on the record date for the Spin-off. |
The percentage ownership interest of the Company’s stockholders in Mergeco will be diluted as the current stockholders of Royalite will receive shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for their shares of Royalite. Upon the completion of the Merger, the existing stockholders of the Company will own approximately 19.4% of the outstanding shares of Mergeco, with the former stockholders of Royalite owning the remaining 80.6% of the outstanding shares of Mergeco. The shares of the Company’s
2
common stock to be issued to the former Royalite stockholders will be issued pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and will be “restricted securities” as defined under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. A detailed description of the Merger can be found under the heading “The Merger With Royalite Petroleum Corp.” beginning on page 12 of this Proxy Statement.
The percentage ownership interest of the Company’s stockholders in Worldbid Sub after the Spin-off will be equal to their percentage ownership interest in the Company on the record date for the Spin-off. Stockholders of Royalite will not receive any shares of Worldbid Sub distributed as part of the Spin-off.
SUMMARY
This summary highlights selected information contained in this Proxy Statement about the Reorganization and may not contain all of the information that is important to you. You are encouraged to carefully read this Proxy Statement in its entirety, including the appendices, and any other documents to which you are referred.
The Proposals.You are being asked to consider and vote upon a reorganization of the business, structure and affairs of the Company (the “Reorganization”) consisting of the following actions: (1) the merger of the Company with Royalite Petroleum Corp. (“Royalite”), where the Company will continue as the surviving entity; and (2) the spin-off the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Worldbid International Inc. (“Worldbid Sub”). Stockholders of Royalite will not receive any shares of Worldbid Sub distributed as part of the Spin-off. See “The Spin-Off Of Worldbid International Inc.” beginning on page 24 of this Proxy Statement, and “The Merger With Royalite Petroleum Corp.” beginning on page 12 of this Proxy Statement.
Worldbid Corporation.Currently, the Company operates, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Worldbid International Inc., an on-line business-to-business and government-to-business facilitation service and marketplace (the “Worldbid Business”). The Worldbid Business consists of a network of websites that allow prospective buyers and sellers to post offers to buy or sell products or services on-line. Offers to buy or sell are automatically emailed to registered users of the Worldbid Business websites who have requested that they be notified of offers to buy or sell the particular product or service. The Company does not operate any business other than the Worldbid Business. See “About Worldbid Corporation” beginning on page 13 of this Proxy Statement and “About Worldbid International Inc.” beginning on page 24 of this Proxy Statement.
Worldbid International Inc.Worldbid Sub is the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Worldbid Sub operates the “Worldbid Business.” See “About Worldbid International Inc.” beginning on page 24 of this Proxy Statement.
Royalite Petroleum Corp.Royalite is an oil and gas exploration company incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. Royalite is currently conducting oil and gas exploration activities in the Utah Hingeline Trend of south-central Utah, using a technology known as the “Moore Radiometer” that uses electromagnetic radiation naturally emitted by the Earth’s molten core to locate and map petroleum deposits. See “About Royalite Petroleum Corp.” beginning on page 13 of this Proxy Statement.
The Merger.The Merger will involve the merger of Royalite with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving entity. The Articles of Incorporation and the bylaws of the Company immediately before the completion of the Merger will continue to be the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of the Company immediately following the Merger, with the exception that the name of the Company will be changed to “Royalite Petroleum Company Inc.” If the Reorganization is approved and the Merger is completed, you will not receive any new shares of the Company or of Royalite or any other consideration, unless you exercise your dissent rights under the Nevada Revised Statutes. Each share of Royalite issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will automatically convert to one share of the Company’s common stock upon
3
completion of the Merger. The shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued to the former stockholders of Royalite will be issued pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and will be “restricted securities” as defined under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The Company’s obligation to complete the Merger is conditional upon, among other things, the completion of the Spin-off of Worldbid Sub. See “The Merger With Royalite Petroleum Corp.” beginning on page 12 of this Proxy Statement.
- The Spin-Off.The proposed Spin-off of Worldbid Sub will involve the distribution to you of all of the outstanding shares of Worldbid Sub, on a one-for-one basis, pro rata to your respective stockholder interest in the Company. Royalite stockholders will not be entitled to receive shares of Worldbid Sub distributed as part of the Spin-off. Upon the completion of the Spin-off, the Company will no longer own any interest in Worldbid Sub or the Worldbid Business. See “The Spin-Off Of Worldbid International Inc.” beginning on page 24 of this Proxy Statement.
Tax Consequences Of The Reorganization.The Company does not expect you to recognize a taxable gain or loss under U.S. federal income tax laws upon the completion of the Merger, although you may recognize a taxable gain or loss upon the completion of the Spin-off. However, the Company has not engaged the services of tax advisors in respect of the potential tax consequences of either of the proposals upon which you are being asked to vote and has not applied for a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service. As such, there are no assurances that the actual tax consequences to you of the Merger or the Spin-off will be as the Company expects. You are advised to consult your own tax advisors with respect to the potential tax consequences of the Reorganization. See “The Federal Income Tax Consequences Of The Merger.” beginning on page 23 of this Proxy Statement and “The Federal Income Tax Consequences Of The Spin-Off.” beginning on page 26 of this Proxy Statement.
Stockholder Approval Required To Approve The Reorganization.In order to complete the Reorganization, the Company requires that stockholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock affirmatively vote in favor of the Reorganization. See “Votes Required For Approval” beginning on page 8 of this Proxy Statement.
Recommendations of the Board of Directors.The Company’s Board of Directors have unanimously recommended that you vote in favor of the Reorganization.
Dissenters Rights.If you are a stockholder who objects to the Reorganization and the Reorganization is otherwise approved by stockholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, you will be entitled to dissenters’ rights. In order to exercise these rights, you will need to comply with the procedures required under the Nevada Revised Statutes. If you follow these procedures, you will be entitled to receive the statutorily determined “fair value” of your shares. See “Dissent Rights” beginning on page 26 of this Proxy Statement.
The Special Meeting.In order to obtain approval for the Reorganization, the Company’s Board of Directors have called a special meeting of the stockholders of the Company to be held on December 8, 2006 at Suite 1880, 1055 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. See “The Special Meeting” beginning on page 7 of this Proxy Statement.

Once the Reorganization is complete, you will own one share of Worldbid Sub common stock and one share of the Company’s common stock, unless you exercise your right to dissent from the Reorganization. |
| |
Q. | How does the Company’ Board of Directors recommend that I vote? |
A. | The Company’s Board of Directors recommends that you vote in favor of the Reorganization. |
| |
Q. | What vote is required to approve the Reorganization? |

| |
Q. | What happens if I do not return my proxy card? |

| |
Q. | May I vote in person? |
A. | Yes. If your shares are not held in “street name” through a broker or a bank, you may attend the special meeting and vote your shares in person. If your shares are held in street name, you must obtain a proxy from your broker or bank in order to attend the special meeting and vote. |

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation and bylaws, and the stockholder rights provided for therein, will remain the same, with the exception of a change in the Company’s name to “Royalite Petroleum Company Inc.” Your percentage ownership interest in Mergeco will be less than your percentage ownership interest in the Company. Upon completion of the Merger, the existing stockholders of the Company will own approximately 19.4% of the outstanding shares of Mergeco and the former stockholders of Royalite will own approximately 80.6% of the outstanding shares of Mergeco. You will receive no additional consideration for your shares of the Company upon completion of the Merger. |

Once the Spin-off has been completed, the Company will no longer own an interest in Worldbid Sub or the internet business-to-business and government-to-business facilitation service carried on by Worldbid Sub. You will own shares of Worldbid Sub in the same proportion as your ownership interest in the shares of the Company as of the record date to be set for the Spin-off. |
| |
Q. | What happens to the outstanding options to acquire the Company’s common stock or any other outstanding rights to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock. |
A. | There are no outstanding options or other rights to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock other than rights upon completion of the Merger held by the stockholders of Royalite. |
| |
Q. | Will the Reorganization cause me to recognize taxable gains or losses? |
A. | The Company expects the distribution of Worlbid Sub’s common stock to be treated as a taxable dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company does not expect the Merger with Royalite to result in a taxable gain or loss to its stockholders under U.S. federal income tax laws. |
| |
| However, the Company has not engaged the services of external advisors to advise it on the tax consequences of the Merger or the Spin-off, nor has the Company applied to the Internal Revenue Service for a ruling on the expected tax consequences of the Merger or the Spin-off. As such, there are no assurances that the actual tax consequences of either the Merger or the Spin-off will be as described above. You are strongly advised to consult with your own tax advisors regarding the potential tax consequences of both the Merger and the Spin-off. |
| |
Q. | Am I entitled to dissenter’s or appraisal rights? |
A. | Yes. If you wish to exercise your appraisal rights with respect to the Reorganization, you must not vote in favor of the Reorganization and you must strictly follow the other requirements of the Nevada Revised Statutes. A summary of these requirements is provided below under the heading “Dissent Rights,” beginning on page 26 of this Proxy Statement. |
| |
Q. | When is the Reorganization expected to complete? |
A. | The Company is attempting to complete the Merger and the Spin-off as soon as possible. In addition to obtaining the approval of the Company’s stockholders, a number of closing conditions to the Merger must be satisfied or waived.

| | |
(e) | executing and delivering a later-dated proxy relating to the same shares to the Company’s corporate secretary at any time before taking of the vote at the special meeting; or |
| | |
(f) | attending the special meeting in person and: |
| | |
| (i) | giving affirmative notice at the special meeting of their intent to revoke their proxy; and |
| | |
| (ii) | voting in person. |
Any written revocation of proxy or subsequent later-dated proxy should be delivered to the offices of the Company’s legal counsel, O’Neill Law Group PLLC, at Suite 1010, 435 Martin Street, Blaine, WA 98230, Facsimile: (360) 201-0400.
Attendance at the special meeting will not, by itself, revoke a stockholder’s proxy without the giving of notice of the stockholder’s intent to revoke that proxy.
If a properly executed and returned proxy does not indicate the stockholder’s choice on any of the proposals in the accompanying notice of meeting, the shares represented by that proxy will be votedfor the approval of that proposal.
Shares represented at the special meeting by proxy will be voted for or against matters not listed in the accompanying Notice of Meeting that may be properly brought before the special meeting at the discretion of the persons named in the proxy as proxyholders. The Company is not aware of any such matters to be presented at the special meeting.
QUORUM FOR MEETING
In order to hold a valid meeting of the Company’s stockholders, a quorum equal to one percent (1%) of the shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding must be at the meeting. These shares may be represented in person or represented by proxy.
On the Record Date, the Company had had 6,004,408shares of common stock outstanding. As a result, a quorum of 60,045 shares must be represented at the special meeting, either in person or by proxy.
Stockholders who abstain from voting on any or all proposals, but who are present at the special meeting or represented at the special meeting by a properly executed proxy will have their shares counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. Broker non-votes will also be counted as present at the special meeting for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. However, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted either in favor or against any of the proposals brought before the special meeting.
A broker non-vote occurs when shares held by a broker for the account of a beneficial owner are not voted for or against a particular proposal because the broker has not received voting instructions from that beneficial owner and the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote those shares.
VOTES REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL
The Reorganization requires the approval of stockholders holding at least a majority of the shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of the Record Date. At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 6,004,408 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to
9
vote. As such, the Company will require the approval of stockholders holding at least 3,002,205 shares of the Company’s common stock for the Reorganization to be approved.
There are no separate voting groups or separate series of stock.
EFFECT OF ABSTENTIONS OR BROKER NON-VOTES
Stockholders may vote for or against the proposal or they may abstain from voting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the special meeting, but will not be counted as either in favor or against the proposal.
ADJOURNMENTS AND POSTPONEMENTS
Although not currently expected, the special meeting may be adjourned or postponed for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies. Any adjournment may be made without notice, other than an announcement made at the special meeting. A majority of the Company’s stockholders present at the special meeting may adjourn the special meeting. Any signed proxies received by the Company will be voted in favor of an adjournment in this circumstance, unless the proxy card has indicates a voteAGAINSTthe Reorganization, in which case the proxy will not be voted in favor of an adjournment for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies. Any adjournment or postponement of the special meeting for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies will allow the Company’s stockholders who have already sent in their proxies the opportunity to revoke them at any time prior to their use at the special meeting as adjourned or postponed.

No proposals have been received from any stockholder to be considered at the special meeting.

In considering the recommendations of the Company’s Board of Directors that you vote in favor of the Reorganization, you should be aware that the officers and directors of the Company have certain relationships with the Company and may have interests in the Reorganization that may be different from your interests as a stockholder.
The Company currently has a consulting agreement with Mr. Anderson, pursuant to which the Company pays Mr. Anderson consulting fees of $10,000 per month. Mr. Anderson is also currently the President of Worlbid Sub as well as a director of Worldbid Sub. It is expected that, upon the completion of the Spin-off,
10
Mr. Anderson will retain his positions with Worldbid Sub and that Mr. Anderson will execute a consulting agreement with Worldbid Sub with similar terms as Mr. Anderson’s consulting agreement with the Company. The Company expects that, upon completion of the Merger, the Company and Mr. Anderson will amend the terms of their current consulting agreement to reflect the changes in Mr. Anderson’s responsibilities with Mergeco. See “Directors and Officers of Mergeco” beginning on page 20 of this Proxy Statement.
The Company has a consulting agreement with Mr. Wagorn, pursuant to which Mr. Wagorn is paid a consulting fee at an hourly rate of $54.80 CDN (approximately $48 US). Mr. Wagorn is currently the Treasurer and Secretary of Worldbid Sub, as well as a director of Worldbid Sub. Mr. Wagorn is expected to continue to act in those capacities with Worldbid Sub upon completion of the Spin-off, and it is expected that Worldbid Sub will pay Mr. Wagorn a consulting fee equal to the consulting fee currently paid to him by the Company. Mr. Wagorn is not expected to be an executive officer or director of Mergeco.
Mr. Tao is currently not paid any compensation for acting as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors. Mr. Tao is not expected to be a director of Worlbid Sub upon completion of the Spin-off, however it is expected that Mr. Tao will be a director of Mergeco upon completion of the Merger. Mergeco may determine to pay Mr. Tao for his services upon completion of the Merger, however the nature and amount of such consideration have not yet been determined.

THE MERGER WITH ROYALITE PETROLEUM CORP.
The Merger
In April, 2006, the Company entered into negotiations for the proposed acquisition of Royalite by the Company. Originally, the Company and Royalite had proposed that the Company would acquire all of the outstanding shares of Royalite in exchange for 25,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and that the Company would spin-off its interest in Worldbid Sub to the Company’s existing stockholders. However, the management and board of directors for each of the Company and Royalite determined that it would be preferable for the Company to acquire Royalite by way of a merger with Royalite under the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”).
Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement between the Company and Royalite, entered into on August 23, 2006 (the “Merger Agreement”), the Company’s obligation to complete the Merger is conditional upon the completion of the Spin-off. However, if the Company obtains the approval of its stockholders to complete the Reorganization, but the Spin-off is not completed for any other reason, the Company may, at the discretion of its Board of Directors, decide to waive this condition and proceed with the Merger.
Upon completion of the Merger, each share of Royalite common stock will automatically convert into one (1) share of Mergeco. There are currently 24,960,667 shares of Royalite common stock issued and outstanding. The existing stockholders of the Company immediately prior to the Merger will own approximately 19.4% of the outstanding shares of Mergeco, with the former stockholders of Royalite owning approximately 80.6% of the outstanding shares of Mergeco. There is currently no market for Royalite’s common stock. The shares of the Mergeco to be issued to the former Royalite Stockholders on completion of the Merger are expected to be issued pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and it is expected that these shares will be “restricted securities” as defined under Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
Reasons For The Merger
The Company has been seeking additional business opportunities in an effort to enhance the value of the Company to its stockholders. Based on its investigations of available business opportunities and, specifically, the Royalite business, the Company’s Board of Directors believes that the acquisition and the Merger with Royalite present the most promising business opportunities for enhancing the Company’s stockholder value.
The Merger Agreement
A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached as Annex A to this Proxy Statement, and is incorporated by reference herein. The following discussion summarizes the terms of the Merger Agreement, is not purported to be complete, and may not contain all of the information about the Merger Agreement that may be important to you. You are encouraged to carefully read the Merger Agreement in its entirety.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Royalite will merge with and into the Company pursuant to the provisions of the NRS. The Merger will become effective upon the filing of the Articles of Merger with the Nevada Secretary of State (the “NVSOS”), or such later date as may be agreed upon by the Company and Royalite. Completion of the Merger is conditional upon the satisfaction by both parties of a number of conditions as set out in the Merger Agreement. See “Conditions to Completion of the Merger” beginning on page 22 of this Proxy Statement.
Upon completion of the Merger, the Company will continue as the surviving entity and Royalite will cease to exist as a separate entity. (Although the Company will continue after the Merger as the surviving entity, to avoid confusion, the term “Mergeco” is used throughout this Proxy Statement to refer to the Company after the Merger has been completed.) As provided under the provisions of the NRS and the Merger Agreement, the Merger will have the following effects:
13
| (a) | All of the property, rights, privileges and powers of the Company and Royalite will immediately vest in Mergeco without the taking of any further action. |
| | |
| (b) | All of the debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Royalite will become the debts, liabilities and duties of Mergeco. |
| | |
| (c) | The Articles of Incorporation of the Company as in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Merger will continue to be the Articles of Incorporation of Mergeco, unchanged, except that the name of Mergeco will be “Royalite Petroleum Company Inc.” |
| | |
| (d) | The bylaws of the Company in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Merger will continue to be the bylaws of Mergeco. |
As the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of Mergeco will, in all material respects, be the same as the Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of the Company, there will be no change to the respective rights of the Company’s stockholders upon completion of the Merger. However, you will experience a dilution of your proportionate interest. Upon completion of the Merger, the Company’s existing stockholders will own approximately 19.4%of the outstanding shares of Mergeco and the former Royalite stockholders will own approximately 80.6% of the outstanding shares of Mergeco.
About Worlbid Corporation
The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 810 Peace Portal Drive, Suite 201 Blaine, WA 98230, telephone: 360-201-0400.
Currently, the Company’s sole business is the Worldbid Business, an international business-to-business and government-to-business facilitation service that it operates through Worldbid Sub. See “About Worldbid International Inc.” beginning on page 24 of this Proxy Statement. The Company does not operate any businesses other than the Worldbid Business.
The Company is incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada.
About Royalite Petroleum Corp.
Royalite is incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. The principal executive offices of Royalite are located at 2215 Lucerne Circle, Henderson, NV, 89014, telephone: 702-451-4981. There are currently 24,960,667 shares of Royalite common stock issued and outstanding, held by 39 stockholders of record. There is currently no public market for Royalite’s common stock.
Royalite is an oil and gas exploration company active exclusively in the Utah Hingeline Trend of south-central Utah. Royalite has exclusive rights, in Utah, to use a proprietary sensing technology (known as the “Moore Radiometer”) used to conduct geophysical surveys and map potential oil structures. Royalite is currently conducting geophysical surveys in the counties surrounding the Covenant Field, an oil field located in Utah and discovered by Michigan based Wolverine Oil and Gas in December, 2003.
The Moore Radiometer is used to measure:
| (1) | the depth, thickness, width and density of hydrocarbon deposits from the surface down through to the basement complex of the underlying geology; and |
| | |
| (2) | the location and direction of the local features of the underlying geology. |
The Moore Radiometer utilizes naturally transmitted electromagnetic radiation emitted from the Earth’s molten core to locate and measure subsurface formations, mineral and petroleum deposits and subsurface water sources. The instrument can be used on the surface, underground, on water, or in the air (by helicopter), and does not require the use of heavy and expensive equipment as required with traditional seismic surveying and downhole measurement techniques.
14
Royalite believes that the Moore Radiometer will allow it locate oil and gas deposits more efficiently and more economically than through traditional exploration techniques by increasing the accuracy of its estimates of oil and gas reserves prior to drilling and by increasing its ability to select optimal locations for drill sites.
Currently, Royalite has secured oil and gas leases on over 33,000 acres of land along the Utah Hingeline Trend of south-central Utah and was the successful bidder on 17 parcels of land consisting of 20,000 acres in the recent Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) oil and gas lease sale held in Salt Lake City on August 15, 2006. Royalite was also the successful bidder on eight parcels of land that the State of Utah Land Trust offered for lease in its July, 2006 sealed bid auction. Royalite has a 100% working interest in its leases and will pay a 12.5% royalty to the lessors.
Royalite has concluded detailed geophysical surveys on numerous large structures south of the Covenant Field and is proceeding to obtain drilling permits to commence a multi-well drilling program as soon as possible. Royalite currently intends to maintain its 100% working interest by drilling the properties itself rather than entering into joint ventures with other parties. Royalite intends to acquire properties and carry out exploration programs on an ongoing basis in order to ascertain whether the properties possess commercially viable quantities of oil or gas. There can be no assurance that commercially exploitable oil or gas deposits or reserves will be found on any of its properties.
Financial Condition Of Royalite And Pro Forma Financial Statements
Copies of Royalite’s audited financial statements for the period ended April 30, 2006 are attached as Annex C to this Proxy Statement. Copies of Royalite’s audited financial statements for the period ended July 31, 2006 are attached as Annex D to this Proxy Statement.
Copies of the pro forma financial statements of the Company and Royalite, giving effect to the Merger and assuming the completion of the Spin-off, are attached as Annex E to this Proxy Statement.
Royalite has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Royalite’s Plan Of Operation For The Next Twelve Months
Subject to the availability of sufficient financing, Royalite expects to spend up to $15,500,000 on its oil and gas exploration and development activities over the next twelve months. These activities are expected to include the following:
| (a) | Drilling at least 5 exploratory wells on the properties to which it has secured oil and gas leases. Royalite estimates that it will cost approximately $2,000,000 per well hole for drilling, and additional $500,000 per well hole to complete each well if commercial quantities of hydrocarbons are found. |
| | |
| (b) | Securing rights to an additional 80,000 acres of land located in the Utah Hingeline Trend of south-central Utah from the BLM, the State of Utah and private land owners. Royalite has estimated that it will cost approximately $1,500,000 to acquire rights to these additional 80,000 acres. |
| | |
| (c) | Conducting seismic surveys of approximately 30 miles at a total estimated cost of approximately $1,500,000. |
In addition, Royalite anticipates spending approximately $35,000 over the next twelve months on overhead costs related to the operation of its business.
15
Anticipated Financing Needs Of Royalite And Mergeco
The Company does not currently have, and Mergeco is, upon completion of the Merger, not expected to have, sufficient capital resources to meet all of the anticipated costs of Royalite’s plan of operation for the next twelve months. As such, as such, if the Merger is completed, Mergeco’s ability to complete the Royalite plan of operation will be dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing.
Any financing that Mergeco obtains is expected to be in the form of sales of equity securities as traditional debt financing is not expected to be available to it in amounts sufficient to enable it to complete the Royalite plan of operation. If Royalite is successful in completing any equity financings, of which there is no assurance, existing shareholders will experience a dilution of their percentage ownership interest in Mergeco.
In June, 2006, the Company approved an offering (the “June Offering”) of 2,000,000 units at a price of $0.75 per unit. Each unit offered pursuant to the June Offering consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and one-half (1/2) of one share purchase warrant. Each one full share purchase warrant under the June Offering will entitle the holder to purchase one additional share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.85 per share for a period expiring one year from the date of issuance. In August, 2006, the Company approved another offering (the “August Offering”) of 15,000,000 units at a price of $1.50 per unit. Each unit offered pursuant to the August Offering consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and one-half (1/2) of one share purchase warrant. Each one full share purchase warrant under the August Offering will entitle the holder to purchase one additional share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $1.75 per share for a period expiring one year from the date of issuance. The Company has received a number of subscriptions for the June Offering and the August Offering, however it will not accept these subscriptions until after the Merger and the Spin-off have been completed. It is expected that subscribers to these offerings will receive shares of Mergeco and warrants to purchase shares of Mergeco. There are no assurances that the Company or Mergeco will be able to sell all of the units offered under the June Offering or the August Offering.
If Mergeco is not successful in raising sufficient financing, it may not be able to complete Royalite’s plan of operation, its business may fail and existing shareholders may lose all or part of their investment.
Risks Related To Royalite’s Business
Royalite has no proven reserves or current production and may never have any.
Royalite does not have any proven reserves or current production of oil or gas. There are no assurances that any wells will be completed or, if completed, that such wells will produce oil or gas in commercially profitable quantities.
If Royalite does not find any oil or gas reserves or if it cannot complete the exploration of the mineral reserve, either because it does not have the money to do it or because it will not be economically feasible to do it, it may have to cease operations. Oil and gas exploration is a highly speculative endeavor. It involves many risks and is often non-productive. Even if Royalite is able to find oil and gas reserves on its properties its ability to put those reserves into production is subject to further risks including:
- | Costs of bringing the property into production including exploration work, preparation of production feasibility studies, and construction of production facilities, all of which Royalite has not budgeted for; |
- | Availability and costs of financing; |
- | Ongoing costs of production; and |
- | Environmental compliance regulations and restraints. |
The marketability of any oil and gas desposits acquired or discovered may be affected by numerous factors which are beyond Royalite’s control and which cannot be accurately predicted, such as market fluctuations, the lack of drilling equipment near Royalite’s oil and gas properties, and such other factors as
16
government regulations, including regulations relating to allowable drilling, production, importing and exporting of oil and gas deposits, and environmental protection.
Royalite is an exploration stage company with a limited operating history, which may hinder its ability to successfully meet its objectives.
Royalite is an exploration stage company with only a limited operating history upon which to base an evaluation of its current business and future prospects. Royalte was only incorporated on December 2, 2005 and does not have an established history of locating and developing properties that have oil and gas reserves. As a result, the revenue and income potential of Royalite’s business is unproven. In addition, because of its limited operating history, Royalite has limited insight into trends that may emerge and affect its business. Royalite may make errors in predicting and reacting to relevant business trends and will be subject to the risks, uncertainties and difficulties frequently encountered by early–stage companies in evolving markets. Royalite may not be able to successfully address any or all of these risks and uncertainties. Failure to adequately do so could cause Royalite’s business, results of operations and financial condition to suffer.
The successful implementation of Royalite’s business plan is subject to risks inherent in the oil and gas business, which if not adequately managed could result in additional losses.
Royalite’s oil and gas operations will be subject to the economic risks typically associated with exploration and development activities, including the necessity of making significant expenditures to locate and acquire properties and to drill exploratory wells. In addition, the availability of drilling rigs and the cost and timing of drilling, completing and, if warranted, operating wells is often uncertain. In conducting exploration and development activities, the presence of unanticipated pressure or irregularities in formations, miscalculations or accidents may cause Royalite’s exploration, development and, if warranted, production activities to be unsuccessful. This could result in a total loss of Royalite’s investment in a particular well. If exploration efforts are unsuccessful in establishing proved reserves and exploration activities cease, the amounts accumulated as unproved costs will be charged against earnings as impairments.
In addition, in the event that Royalite commences production, of which there are no assurances, market conditions or the unavailability of satisfactory oil and gas transportation arrangements may hinder Royalite’s access to oil and gas markets and delay production. The availability of a ready market for Royalite’s prospective oil and gas production depends on a number of factors, including the demand for and supply of oil and gas and the proximity of reserves to pipelines and other facilities. Royalite’s ability to market such production depends in substantial part on the availability and capacity of gathering systems, pipelines and processing facilities, in most cases owned and operated by third parties. A failure to obtain such services on acceptable terms could materially harm Royalite’s business. Royalite may be required to shut in wells for lack of a market or because of inadequacy or unavailability of pipelines or gathering system capacity. If that occurs, Royalite would be unable to realize revenue from those wells until arrangements are made to deliver such production to market.
Royalite’s future performance is dependent upon its ability to identify, acquire and develop oil and gas properties, the failure of which could result in under use of capital and losses.
The future performance of Royalites business will depend upon an ability to identify, acquire and develop oil and gas reserves that are economically recoverable. Success will depend upon the ability to acquire working and revenue interests in properties upon which oil and gas reserves are ultimately discovered in commercial quantities, and the ability to develop prospects that contain proven oil and gas reserves to the point of production. Without successful acquisition and exploration activities, Royalite will not be able to develop oil and gas reserves or generate revenues. There are no assurances oil and gas reserves will be identified or acquired on acceptable terms, or that oil and gas deposits will be discovered in sufficient quantities to enable Royalite to recover its exploration and development costs or sustain its business.
The successful acquisition and development of oil and gas properties requires an assessment of recoverable reserves, future oil and gas prices and operating costs, potential environmental and other liabilities, and other factors. Such assessments are necessarily inexact and their accuracy inherently
17
uncertain. In addition, no assurance can be given that Royalite’s exploration and development activities will result in the discovery of any reserves. Operations may be curtailed, delayed or canceled as a result of lack of adequate capital and other factors, such as lack of availability of rigs and other equipment, title problems, weather, compliance with governmental regulations or price controls, mechanical difficulties, or unusual or unexpected formations, pressures and or work interruptions. In addition, the costs of exploitation and development may materially exceed Royalite’s initial estimates.
The geographic concentration of all of Royalite’s properties in the Utah Hingeline Trend may subject Royalite to an increased risk of loss of revenue or curtailment of production from factors affecting that area.
The geographic concentration of all of Royalite’s leasehold interests in the Utah Hingeline Trend means all of its properties could be affected by the same event should the region experience severe weather; delays or decreases in production; an unavailability of equipment, facilities or services; delays or decreases in the availability of capacity to transport, gather or process production; or changes in the regulatory environment.
The oil and gas exploration and production industry historically is a cyclical industry and market fluctuations in the prices of oil and gas could adversely affect Royalite’s business.
Prices for oil and gas tend to fluctuate significantly in response to factors beyond Royalite’s control. These factors include, but are not limited to:
- weather conditions in the United States and elsewhere;
- economic conditions, including demand for petroleum–based products, in the United States and elsewhere;
- actions by OPEC, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries;
- political instability in the Middle East and other major oil and gas producing regions;
- governmental regulations, both domestic and foreign;
- domestic and foreign tax policy;
- the pace adopted by foreign governments for the exploration, development, and production of their national reserves;
- the price of foreign imports of oil and gas;
- the cost of exploring for, producing and delivering oil and gas; the discovery rate of new oil and gas reserves;
- the rate of decline of existing and new oil and gas reserves;
- available pipeline and other oil and gas transportation capacity;
- the ability of oil and gas companies to raise capital;
- the overall supply and demand for oil and gas; and
- the availability of alternate fuel sources.
Changes in commodity prices may significantly affect Royalite’s capital resources, liquidity and expected operating results. Price changes will directly affect revenues and can indirectly impact expected production by changing the amount of funds available to reinvest in exploration and development activities. Reductions in oil and gas prices not only reduce revenues and profits, but could also reduce the quantities of reserves that are commercially recoverable. Significant declines in prices could result in non–cash charges to earnings due to impairment. Royalite does not currently engage in any hedging program to mitigate its exposure to fluctuations in oil and gas prices. Changes in commodity prices may also significantly affect Royalite’s ability to estimate the value of producing properties for acquisition and divestiture and often cause disruption in the market for oil and gas producing properties, as buyers and sellers have difficulty agreeing on the value of the properties. Price volatility also makes it difficult to budget for and project the return on acquisitions and the development and exploitation of projects. Commodity prices are expected to continue to fluctuate significantly in the future.
Royalite’s ability to produce oil and gas from its properties may be adversely affected by a number of factors outside of its control.
18
The business of exploring for and producing oil and gas involves a substantial risk of investment loss. Drilling oil and gas wells involves the risk that the wells may be unproductive or that, although productive, the wells may not produce oil or gas in economic quantities. Other hazards, such as unusual or unexpected geological formations, pressures, fires, blowouts, loss of circulation of drilling fluids or other conditions may substantially delay or prevent completion of any well. Adverse weather conditions can also hinder drilling operations. A productive well may become uneconomic if water or other deleterious substances are encountered that impair or prevent the production of oil or gas from the well. In addition, production from any well may be unmarketable if it is impregnated with water or other deleterious substances. There can be no assurance that oil and gas will be produced from the properties in which Royalite has interests. In addition, the marketability of oil and gas that may be acquired or discovered may be influenced by numerous factors beyond Royalite’s control. These factors include the proximity and capacity of oil and gas, gathering systems, pipelines and processing equipment, market fluctuations in oil and gas prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, allowable production and environmental protection.
The unavailability or high cost of drilling rigs, equipment, supplies, personnel and oil field services could adversely affect Royalite’s ability to execute its exploration and development plans on a timely basis and within Royalite’s budget.
Shortages or the high cost of drilling rigs, equipment, supplies or personnel could delay or adversely affect Royalite’s exploitation and exploration operations, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations. Since Royalite’s operations and properties are concentrated in the Utah Hingeline Trend, Royalite could be materially and adversely affected if drilling rigs are unavailable or cost of rigs, equipment supplies or personnel increase significantly over current costs.
Royalite may be unable to retain its leases and working interests in leases, which would result in significant financial losses.
Royalite’s properties are held under oil and gas leases. If Royalite fails to meet the specific requirements of each lease, such lease may terminate or expire. There are no assurances the obligations required to maintain those leases will be met. The termination or expiration of Royalite’s leases may harm its business. Royalite’s property interests will terminate unless it fulfills certain obligations under the terms of its leases and other agreements related to such properties. If it is unable to satisfy these conditions on a timely basis, it may lose its rights in these properties. The termination of Royalite’s interests in these properties may harm its business. In addition, Royalite will need significant funds to meet capital requirements for the exploration activities that it intends to conduct on its properties.
Title deficiencies could render Royalite’s leases worthless.
The existence of a material title deficiency can render a lease worthless and can result in a large expense to Royalite’s business. It is Royalite’s practice in acquiring oil and gas leases or undivided interests in oil and gas leases to forgo the expense of retaining lawyers to examine the title to the oil or gas interest to be placed under lease or already placed under lease. Instead, Royalite relies upon the judgment of oil and gas landmen who perform the field work in examining records in the appropriate governmental office before attempting to place under lease a specific oil or gas interest. This is customary practice in the oil and gas industry. However, Royalite does not anticipate that it, or the person or company acting as operator of the wells located on the properties that it currently lease or may lease in the future, will obtain counsel to examine title to the lease until the well is about to be drilled. As a result, Royalite may be unaware of deficiencies in the marketability of the title to the lease. Such deficiencies could render the lease worthless.
If Royalite fails to maintain adequate insurance, its business could be materially and adversely affected.
Royaite’s operations are subject to risks inherent in the oil and gas industry, such as blowouts, cratering, explosions, uncontrollable flows of oil, gas or well fluids, fires, pollution, earthquakes and other environmental risks. These risks could result in substantial losses due to injury and loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment, pollution and other environmental damage, and suspension of operations. Royalite could be liable for environmental damages caused by previous property
19
owners. As a result, substantial liabilities to third parties or governmental entities may be incurred, the payment of which could have a material adverse effect on Royalite’s financial condition and results of operations. Any prospective drilling contractor or operator which Royalite hires will be required to maintain insurance of various types to cover its operations with policy limits and retention liability customary in the industry. Therefore, Royalite does not plan to acquire its own insurance coverage for such prospects. The occurrence of a significant adverse event on such prospects that is not fully covered by insurance could result in the loss of all or part of Royalite’s investment in a particular prospect which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
Complying with environmental and other government regulations could be costly and could negatively impact an prospective production.
Royalite’s business is governed by numerous laws and regulations at various levels of government. These laws and regulations govern the operation and maintenance of Royalite’s facilities, the discharge of materials into the environment and other environmental protection issues. Such laws and regulations may, among other potential consequences, require that Royalite acquire permits before commencing drilling and restrict the substances that can be released into the environment with drilling and production activities. Under these laws and regulations, Royalite could be liable for personal injury, clean–up costs and other environmental and property damages, as well as administrative, civil and criminal penalties. Prior to commencement of drilling operations, Royalite may secure limited insurance coverage for sudden and accidental environmental damages as well as environmental damage that occurs over time. However, Royalite does not believe that insurance coverage for the full potential liability of environmental damages is available at a reasonable cost. Accordingly, Royalite could be liable, or could be required to cease production on properties, if environmental damage occurs.
The costs of complying with environmental laws and regulations in the future may harm Royalite’s business. Furthermore, future changes in environmental laws and regulations could occur, resulting in stricter standards and enforcement, larger fines and liability, and increased capital expenditures and operating costs, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Royalite’s financial condition or results of operations.
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive, and Royalite may not have sufficient resources to compete effectively.
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. Royalite competes with oil and natural gas companies and other individual producers and operators, many of which have longer operating histories and substantially greater financial and other resources than it does, as well as companies in other industries supplying energy, fuel and other needs to consumers. Royalite’s larger competitors, by reason of their size and relative financial strength, can more easily access capital markets than it can and may enjoy a competitive advantage in the recruitment of qualified personnel. They may be able to absorb the burden of any changes in laws and regulation in the jurisdictions in which Royalite does business and handle longer periods of reduced prices for oil and gas more easily than it can. Royalite’s competitors may be able to pay more for oil and gas leases and properties and may be able to define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a greater number of leases and properties than Royalite can. Further, these companies may enjoy technological advantages and may be able to implement new technologies more rapidly than Royalite can. Royalite’s ability to acquire additional properties in the future will depend upon its ability to conduct efficient operations, evaluate and select suitable properties, implement advanced technologies and consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment.
Risks related to the use of the Moore Radiometer
The Moore Radiometer technology is a new technology and has not yet been definitively proven to be effective. Although use of the Moore Radiometer has allowed Royalite to conduct geophysical surveys at a greatly decreased cost than would be possible using traditional measuring techniques, there are no assurances that the Moore Radiometer will be as effective in locating and measuring subsurface hydrocarbon deposits as traditional measuring techniques.
20
The Company is aware of at least one instance where geological experts have disputed the claims made by the inventor of the Moore Radiometer. In a hearing before the U.S. Department of the Interior’s Interior Board of Land Appeals, in March, 2006, relating to the validity of certain placer mineral claims, a geologist from the Bureau of Land Management (the “BLM”) discredited the Moore Radiometer. (Interior Board of Land Appeals Decision, 168 IBLA 115, March 16, 2006.) K. Ian Matheson, one of the directors of Royalite, was a party to the proceedings.
Royalite has informed the Company that it believes the conclusions of the BLM expert were faulty as the equipment used by the Moore Radiometer differs from the equipment upon which the BLM expert’s opinion was based. In an effort to confirm the efficacy of the Moore Radiometer, Royalite asked the inventor to map the underground geology of a specific area. Royalite had, in its possession, the results of previous mapping efforts done on the area by more traditional surveying techniques, which results were kept from the inventor. Royalite has informed the Company that the results produced by the Moore Radiometer matched, to approximately 90% accuracy, the information of the underground geology already possessed by Royalite.
In addition to the tests performed by Royalite, one of the Company’s directors, Dr. William Charles Tao, has examined the scientific principles on which the Moore Radiometer is based. Dr. Tao is a graduate of Standford University, where he received a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering in June, 1986 and a Ph.D. in Chemical Physics a year later. Dr. Tao has concluded, through an examination of the Moore Radiometer calibration from measurements of electromagnetic radiation transmissions in the region of existing wells, that the scientific principles underlying the Moore Radiometer are sound. Based on the representations of Royalite and the investigations performed by Dr. Tao, the Company believes that there is sufficient evidence to support Royalite’s use of the Moore Radiometer in conducting its oil and gas exploration activities.
Despite the due diligence investigations of Royalite and the Company, there are no assurances that any oil and gas products will be found on Royalite’s properties.

Merger Consideration and Conversion Procedure
Subject to the proper exercise of dissenters rights under the provisions of the NRS (see “Dissent Rights” beginning on page 26 of this Proxy Statement) no consideration will be paid to the existing stockholders of either the Company or Royalite for the Merger.
Upon the completion of the Merger, each share of Royalite common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Merger will automatically convert into one (1) share of Mergeco common stock unless the holder of such Royalite common stock exercises his or her rights to dissent to the Merger.The shares of the Company’s common stock that will be issued upon completion of the Merger will be issued pursuant to exemptions to the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and will be “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.Royalite does not have any outstanding options, warrants, subscriptions, conversion rights or other rights to acquire Royalite common stock.
Once the Merger has been completed, each Royalite stockholder will be entitled to exchange his or her Royalite share certificates for Mergeco share certificates representing an equivalent number of Mergeco shares. The Royalite share certificates may be exchanged by delivering the share certificate to Mergeco, duly endorsed in blank (or accompanied by a duly executed stock power, duly endorsed in blank), in proper form for transfer, with the signatures thereto properly guaranteed, together with proper instructions to allow the Mergeco transfer agent to issue Mergeco share certificates to the Royalite stockholder either:
22
| 1. | If the Royalite stockholder is resident outside of the United States, a duly completed and duly executed Certificate of Non-U.S. Shareholder in the form attached as Disclosure Schedule 2.2A to the Merger Agreement; or |
| | |
| 2. | If the Royalite stockholder is resident in the United States, a duly completed and duly executed Certificate of U.S. Shareholder in the form attached as Disclosure Schedule 2.2B to the Merger Agreement. |
Until such time as a Royalite share certificate has been duly surrendered by the respective Royalite stockholder, that Royalite share certificate will, after the Merger has been completed, represent only the right to receive Mergeco share certificates representing an equivalent number of Mergco shares.
If the Reorganization is approved by the Company’s stockholders, no further action will be required by the Company’s stockholders to effect the Merger. The Company’s existing stockholders will not be entitled to receive any additional shares of Mergeco common stock or any other consideration unless such stockholders properly exercise the dissenter’s rights provided by the NRS. See “Dissent Rights” beginning on page 26 of this Proxy Statement.
Conditions to Completion of the Merger
The Company’s obligation to complete the Merger is subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions precedent. The following is a summary of the most important conditions precedent to the Company’s obligation to complete the Merger:
| (a) | The Company must have completed the Spin-off of Worlbid Sub to its stockholders; |
| | |
| (b) | The Company’s stockholders must have approved and adopted the Merger Agreement and the Merger as required under the NRS; |
| | |
| (c) | Dissenter’s rights can not have been exercised with respect to more than 5% of the total number of shares of Royalite common stock issued and outstanding prior to the completion of the Merger, and the Company and Royalite must have resolved all matters of appraisal and payment under Nevada law for each dissenting Royalite stockholder to the satisfaction of the Company; |
| | |
| (d) | The Company must be reasonably satisfied with the results of its due diligence investigations regarding the affairs of Royalite; and |
| | |
| (e) | The Company must receive evidence satisfactory to it that the Merger and the shares of the Mergeco issuable in connection with the Merger will comply with all applicable securities laws. |
However, if any of the above conditions are not satisfied, including the completion of the Spin-off, but the Company’s stockholders have approved the Merger, the Company may, at the discretion of its Board of Directors, decide to waive such conditions and to proceed with the Merger.
Royalite’s obligation to complete the Merger is also subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions precedent, the most important of which is that Royalite’s stockholders must have approved and adopted the Merger Agreement and the Merger as required under the NRS.
It is not a provision of the Merger Agreement that the Merger will not be completed if a significant portion of the Company’s stockholders exercise their dissenters rights in respect of the Reorganization. However, if the Company receives notice holders of more than 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock intend to exercise their dissenters’ rights the Company may, at the discretion of its Board of Directors, and with the Agreement of Royalite, decide not to proceed with the Reorganization.
Termination Provisions
The Merger Agreement may be terminated prior to the completion of the Merger as follows:
23
| (1) | By the mutual agreement of the Company and Royalite; |
| | |
| (2) | By the Company if Royalite breaches any of its material representations, warranties, covenants or agreements as set out in the Merger Agreement if such breach is not cured by Royalite to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company within 10 business days after notice is given of such breach (provided that no cure period will be provided for a breach that, by its nature, is incurable); |
| | |
| (3) | By Royalite if the Company breaches any of its material representations, warranties, covenants or agreements as set out in the Merger Agreement if such breach is not cured by the Company to the reasonable satisfaction of Royalite within 10 business days after notice is given of such breach (provided that no cure period will be provided for a breach that, by its nature, is incurable); or |
| | |
| (4) | By either of the Company or Royalite if the Merger is not completed prior to January 31, 2007 (the “Merger Deadline Date”), unless the Company and Royalite mutually agree to extend the Merger Deadline date. |
If the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with the above, no termination fees are payable and the Merger Agreement will be of no further force or effect.
Accounting Treatment of the Merger
The Company expects that, under US generally accepted accounting principles, the Merger will be treated as a reverse merger and a recapitalization of the Company for accounting purposes. As such, upon completion of the Merger, Royalite will be treated as the acquiring entity for financial reporting purposes. The year end of Royalite is April 30, which is also the year end of the Company and the expected year end of Mergeco. As such there is not expected to be a change in Mergeco’s fiscal year end upon completion of the Merger.
Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger
The Company has not consulted with external advisors on the potential tax consequences of the Merger, nor has the Company applied to the Internal Revenue Service for a ruling on the potential tax consequences of the Merger. Furthermore, the following summary is only a general discussion of the Company’s expectations regarding the material US federal income tax consequences of the Merger. It does not address all aspects of federal income taxation that may be important to you in light of your particular circumstances or if you are subject to special taxation rules, including (but not limited to) a person who is not a citizen or resident of the United States, a financial institution or insurance company, a tax-exempt organization, a broker or dealer in securities, a stockholder who owns his or her shares as part of a hedge, appreciated financial position, straddle, or conversion transaction, or a stockholder who acquired his or her shares by exercising options or otherwise as compensation. The discussion provided below is also based upon the Company’s understanding and knowledge of the applicable US federal tax laws, regulations, administrative interpretations and court decisions in effect as of the date of this Proxy Statement. These laws may change, possibly with retroactive effect. The following discussion also does not address any non-income tax or foreign, state, or local tax consequences. As such, the following discussion is not a complete analysis or description of all potential federal income tax consequences of the Merger and there are no assurances that the actual US federal tax consequences of the Merger will be as set out below.You are strongly urged to consult with your own tax advisors with respect to the potential tax consequences to you of the Merger.
The Company expects that its stockholders will not recognize any taxable gains or losses under U.S. federal income tax laws on the completion of the Merger. However, if a stockholder exercises his or her right to dissent from the Reorganization, the Company expects that such dissenting stockholder will recognize a taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount paid to the dissenting stockholder (less amounts paid on account of interest) and the dissenting stockholder’s tax basis in the Company’s common stock. This gain or loss will likely be a capital gain or loss.
24
THE SPIN-OFF OF WORLDBID INTERNATIONAL INC.
The Company’s Board of Directors have approved the Spin-off in order to allow the Company to take advantage of the business opportunities presented by the Royalite business while allowing the Company’s stockholders to continue to participate in the future opportunities presented by Worldbid’s online business-to-business and government-to-business facilitation service.
If the Reorganization is approved by stockholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, the Spin-off will be effected by way of a distribution of Worldbid Sub’s common stock, pro rata on a one-for-one basis in accordance with the stockholder’s respective holdings of the Company’s common stock. The Spin-off will not involve the payment of any consideration by the recipients of the spun-off shares of Worldbid Sub common stock.
Immediately following the completion of the Spin-off, the Company’s stockholders will own all of the outstanding shares of Wordlbid Sub in the same proportion as their ownership interest in the shares of the Company’s common stock. Royalite stockholders will not be entitled to receive any shares of Worldbid Sub distributed in connection with the Spin-off.
About Worldbid International Inc.
The principal executive offices of Worldbid Sub are located at #2-2251 Belmont Avenue, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, telephone: 250-475-2248
Worldbid Sub was originally incorporated as a British Columbia, Canada, corporation on November 5, 1999 under the name “Worldbid Canada Corporation.” On October 30, 2006, Worldbid Sub completed a 1-for-6,004,408 forward split of its common shares. As a result of the stock split, the number of common shares of the Company outstanding was increased from 1 share to 6,004,480 shares. The maximum authorized capital of Worldbid Sub was not changed.
On November 8, 2006, Worldbid Sub’s jurisdiction of incorporation was changed from the Province of British Columbia, Canada, to the State of Nevada through a process known as a “domestication”. As a result of the domestication of Worldbid Sub to the State of Nevada, Worldbid Sub is now a Nevada corporation and is subject to the corporate laws of that state. The domestication did not materially affect how Worldbid Sub conducts its business. All of the property, rights, privileges, powers, duties, debts, obligations and liabilities of Worldbid Sub as a British Columbia corporation automatically vested in Worldbid Sub as a Nevada corporation. Currently, the Company is the sole shareholder of Worldbid Sub.
Worldbid Sub operates an international business-to-business and government-to-business facilitation service, combining proprietary software and the power of the Internet to bring buyers and sellers together from around the world for interactive trade (the “Worldbid Business”). Worldbid Sub’s website, Worldbid.com, is an online network of international trade marketplaces. Worldbid.com posts trade leads, requests for proposals and tender opportunities from companies and government organizations worldwide. In addition to owning the Worldbid.com website, Worldbid Sub has also created an international network of sub-sites in order to attract international business who may prefer to conduct their transactions in a local language or market. Worldbid Sub has created two types of sub-sites: (i) regional sub-sites that focus on specific geographic regions (such as the “WorldbidUK.com” website); and (ii) industry sub-sites focused on specific industries. To date, Worldbid Sub has created approximately 100 sub-sites, consisting of roughly 60 regional sub-sites and 40 industry specific sub-sites.
If the Reorganization is approved and the Spin-off is completed, Worldbid Sub will continue to operate the Worldbid Business.
The Company’s Business Plan Following The Spin-Off
Currently, the Company’s sole business is the Worldbid Business. If the Spin-off is completed, the Company will have no further interest in the Worldbid Business.
25
If the Reorganization is approved by the Company’s stockholders, once the Spin-off is completed, the Company intends to complete the Merger, and will, from then on, be engaged in the solely in the oil and gas exploration business currently being carried on by Royalite. See “About Royalite Petroleum Corp.” beginning on page 13 of this Proxy Statement.
Management And Board Of Directors Of Worldbid International Inc.
The current Board of Directors and executive officers of Worldbid Sub are as follows, and are expected to remain as members of the Board of Directors and executive officers of Worldbid Sub upon completion of the Spin-off:
Name | Age | Position |
| | |
Logan Anderson | 52 | Chief Executive Officer, President and Director |
| | |
Paul Wagorn | 37 | Chief Operating Officer, Secretary, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Director |
A description of the background and qualifications of Mr. Anderson is provided under the heading “Directors And Officers Of Mergeco” beginning on page 20 of this Proxy Statement.
Paul Wagorn is Worldbid Sub’s Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary and is a member of Worldbid Sub’s Board of Directors. Mr. Wagorn has been working in the computer field for the past 12 years, in which he has served in both the public and private sectors as a software and database engineer, project manager, and support specialist. From 1987 to 1989, Mr. Wagorn worked for Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada, leading a team to computerize the data retrieval system for Canadian Patents and develop a quality assurance system for Canadian Patent Examiners. Mr. Wagorn subsequently worked on various small and large database-systems projects integrating new technology with existing data.
Distribution Of Worldbid Sub Shares
If the Reorganization is approved by the Company’s stockholders, the Company intends to distribute all 6,004,408 shares of Worldbid Sub’s common stock outstanding to the Company’s stockholders on a pro-rata basis, with one share of Worldbid common stock to be distributed for each share of the Company’s common stock held as of the record date for the Spin-off. Royalite stockholders will not receive shares of Worldbid Sub distributed as part of the Spin-off.
The Company has received subscriptions for two private placement offerings authorized in June and August of 2006 (the “June Offering” and the “August Offering” respectively). Although subscriptions have been received for both the June Offering and the August Offering, the Company will not accept these subscriptions until after the Merger and the Spin-off are completed. As such, subscribers for these offerings will not be entitled to receive shares of Worldbid Sub distributed in connection with the Spin-off.
Provided that the Company’s stockholders approve the Reorganization, shortly after the special meeting, Worldbid Sub will file a Form 10-SB registration statement with the SEC to register the shares of Worldbid Sub’s common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. Registration of Worldbid Sub’s common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act will subject Worldbid Sub to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. Once the Form 10-SB filed by Worldbid Sub has become effective and all comments from the SEC have been cleared, the Company will complete the Spin-off and the associated distribution of the shares of Worldbid Sub’s common stock.You will not receive any shares of Worldbid Sub until such time as the Form 10-SB registration statement filed by Worldbid Sub has become effective and all comments from the SEC have been cleared. For more information regarding the Spin-off and Worldbid Sub, please read the Form 10-SB to be filed by Worldbid Sub.

The Federal Income Tax Consequences Of The Spin-Off.
The Company has not consulted with external advisors on the potential tax consequences of the Spin-off, nor has the Company applied to the Internal Revenue Service for a ruling on the potential tax consequences of the Spin-off. Furthermore, the following summary is only a general discussion of the Company’s expectations regarding the material US federal income tax consequences of the Spin-off. It does not address all aspects of federal income taxation that may be important to you in light of your particular circumstances or if you are subject to special taxation rules, including (but not limited to) a person who is not a citizen or resident of the United States, a financial institution or insurance company, a tax-exempt organization, a broker or dealer in securities, a stockholder who owns his or her shares as part of a hedge, appreciated financial position, straddle, or conversion transaction, or a stockholder who acquired his or her shares by exercising options or otherwise as compensation. The discussion provided below is also based upon the Company’s understanding and knowledge of the applicable US federal tax laws, regulations, administrative interpretations and court decisions in effect as of the date of this Proxy Statement. These laws may change, possibly with retroactive effect. The following discussion also does not address any non-income tax or foreign, state, or local tax consequences. As such, the following discussion is not a complete analysis or description of all potential federal income tax consequences of the Spin-off and there are no assurances that the actual US federal tax consequences of the Spin-off will be as set out below.You are strongly urged to consult with your own tax advisors with respect to the potential tax consequences to you of the Spin-off.
The Company expects that the distribution of shares of Worldbid Sub to its stockholders will be treated as a taxable dividend in the hands of its stockholders for US federal income tax purposes. The amount of the taxable dividend is expected to be equal to the fair market value of the shares of Worldbid Sub common stock as of the Spin-off date. The Company also expects that you will acquire an initial tax basis in your shares of Worldbid Sub common stock equal to the fair market value of those shares as of the Spin-off date.
DISSENT RIGHTS
Pursuant to Sections 92A.300 to 92A.500 of the NRS, if the Reorganization is approved and the Merger is effected, each stockholder of the Company will have the right to dissent from the Merger and to obtain payment for the “fair value” of his or her shares, provided that he or she properly complies with the prerequisites to exercising those rights. See “Calculation of, and Disputes Regarding, Fair Value” beginning on page 28 of this Proxy Statement.You are not entitled to dissenter’s rights in respect of the Spin-off.If the Company receives notice that holders of more than 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock intend to exercise their dissenters’ rights, the Company may, at the discretion of its Board of Directors, and with the agreement of Royalite, decide not to proceed with the Merger. If the Company decides not to proceed with the Merger, you will not be entitled to payment for your shares of the Company’s common stock, even if you have properly notified the Company of your intent to exercise those rights. Any amounts paid to the Company’s stockholders in connection with the proper exercise of dissenters’ rights will be paid by the Company out of its own funds.
The following discussion summarizes the material provisions of Sections 92A.300 to 92A.500 of the NRS applicable to the exercise of dissenter’s rights in connection with the Merger. Reference should be made to the complete text of Sections 92A.300 to 92A.500 of the NRS, a copy of which is attached as Annex Bto this Proxy Statement. You should carefully review the complete provisions of Sections 92A.300 to 92A.500. A failure to strictly comply with any of the prerequisites to the exercise of your dissenter’s rights may result in the termination or waiver of those rights. Persons who have a beneficial ownership interest in shares of the Company that are held of record in the name of another person (for example, persons who hold shares in “street name” through a broker or bank) should act promptly to cause the record holder to properly follow the prerequisites for exercising and perfecting his or her dissenter’s rights as a failure by
27
the stockholder of record to follow such requirements may have the effect of terminating or waiving the beneficial owner’s dissenter’s rights.
Prerequisites to the Proper Exercise of Dissenters’ Rights
In order to properly exercise your dissenter’s rights and ensure your right to receive payment for the “fair value” of your shares, you must comply with the following:
| (1) | Before the vote is taken to approve the Reorganization, you must deliver written notice to the Company that you intend to demand payment of “fair value” for your shares if the Merger is effected; |
| | |
| (2) | You mustnotvote your shares in favor of the Reorganization; and |
| | |
| (3) | You must exercise your dissenter’s rights in respect of all of the shares of the Company’s common stock registered in your name unless you hold a portion of those shares for the benefit of another person. See “Prerequisites to Exercise of Dissenter’s Rights For Shares Held For The Benefit Of Others” beginning on page 27 of this Proxy Statement. |
If you fail to satisfy any of the above conditions, you willnot be entitled to receive payment for your shares of the Company’s common stock.
Prerequisites to Exercise of Dissenter’s Rights For Shares Held For The Benefit Of Others
In general, if you intend to exercise your dissenter’s rights, you must exercise those rights with respect to all of the shares of the Company’s common stock registered in your name. However, if you own shares of the Company’s common stock for the benefit of another person, you may exercise partial dissenter’s rights if:
| (1) | You notify us, in writing, of the name and address of each person on whose behalf you will be asserting dissenter’s rights (a “Dissenting Beneficial Owner”); |
| | | |
| (2) | You exercise dissenter’s rights with respect to all of the shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially owned by the Dissenting Beneficial Owner; |
| | | |
| (3) | You comply with conditions (1) and (2) under the heading “Prerequisites to the Proper Exercise of Dissenters’ Rights” beginning on page 27 of this Proxy Statement; and |
| | | |
| (4) | The Dissenting Beneficial Owner: |
| | | |
| | (a) | No later than the time at which the Dissenting Beneficial Owner asserts his or her dissenter’s rights, provides the Company with written notice of the consent of the stockholder of record to the exercise of dissenter’s rights with respect to the shares of the Company’s common stock beneficially owned on behalf of the Dissenting Beneficial Owner, and |
| | | |
| | (b) | Asserts his or her dissenter’s rights in respect of all shares of the Company’s common stock to which he or she is the beneficial owner. |
Dissent Procedures Upon Completion Of The Merger
Within 10 days after the Merger has been completed, the Company will send a written notice to all stockholders who have correctly followed the prerequisite procedures to exercising dissenter’s rights (the “Dissenters Notice”). This Dissenters Notice will include the following:
- Instructions on where you must send your demand for payment and where and when share certificates representing the shares to which you are making such demand must be deposited.
28
A form for making a demand for payment (the “Payment Demand”). The form of Payment Demand will include the date of the first announcement of the terms of the Merger to the news media or the Company’s stockholders and will, among other things, require you to certify whether or not you acquired beneficial ownership of the Company’s shares before that date.
Instructions as to the date by which the Company must received the completed Payment Demand, which date will not be less than 30 days or more than 60 days after the date the Dissenters Notice is sent to you.
A copy of Sections 92A.300 to 92A.500 of the NRS.
Once you have received the Dissenters Notice, you will be required to complete and return the Payment Demand and deposit your share certificates within the periods set forth in the Dissenters Notice. If you fail to follow the instructions in the Dissenters Notice, you will not be entitled to receive payment for your shares of the Company’s common stock.
If you properly follow the instructions in the Dissenters Notice, within 30 days after the Company has received your Payment Demand, the Company will pay to you the amount “fair value” of your shares, plus interest accrued from the effective date the Merger was completed to the payment date. The payment will be accompanied by a copy of the Company’s audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year end, a copy of the Company’s latest available interim financial statements, an explanation of how the Company estimated the “fair value” of the shares, an explanation of how the interest was calculated, a statement informing you of the procedures that must be followed if you disagree with the Company’s calculation of “fair value” and a copy of Sections 92A.300 to 92A.500 of the NRS.
Calculation of, and Disputes Regarding, Fair Value and Interest
Under Section 92A “fair value” means the value of the Company’s shares of common stock immediately before the Merger is effected, not including any discounts or increases arising as a result of the anticipation of the Merger, unless the exclusion of such discount or increase would be inequitable.
If you disagree with the Company’s estimate of the “fair value” of your shares or the calculation of the interest accrued, you must provide us with written notice of your disagreement (the “Disagreement Notice”) within 30 days after receiving the Company’s payment. The Disagreement Notice must include your own estimates of the fair value of your shares and the amount of interest due, and must include an affirmative demand for the payment of fair value plus interest based on your own estimates, less any amounts already paid to you by the Company in respect of those amounts.
If, after receiving the Disagreement Notice, the Company disagrees with the demand for payment contained therein, it may, within 60 days after receiving the Disagreement Notice, petition the court to determine the fair value of the shares in question and the accrued interest payable. If the Company does not commence such a proceeding within 60 days, it will be required to pay the amount set out in the Disagreement Notice.
THE COMPANY’S BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE REORGANIZATION OF WORLDBID CORPORATION.

SECTION 2
PAYMENT OF MERGER CONSIDERATION
2.1 Merger Consideration.
(a) Conversion of Royalite Common Stock. Each share of Royalite common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Royalite Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares, as defined in Section 2.3) will, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be converted into one (1) share of Worldbid Common Stock (as defined in Section 4.3) (the “Merger Shares”).
2.2 Conversion Procedure.
(a) Stock Certificate Conversion Procedure. After the Effective Time, each holder of Royalite Common Stock will be entitled to exchange his, her, or its certificate representing the Royalite Common Stock (“Royalite Stock Certificate”) for a certificate representing the number of shares of Worldbid Common Stock into which the number of shares of Royalite Stock previously represented by such certificate surrendered have been converted pursuant to Section 2.1(a) of this Agreement. Each holder of Royalite Common Stock may exchange his, her or its Royalite Stock Certificate by delivering it to Worldbid duly endorsed in blank (or accompanied by duly executed stock powers duly endorsed in blank), in each case in proper form for transfer, with signatures guaranteed, and, if applicable, with all stock transfer and any other required documentary stamps affixed thereto and with appropriate instructions to allow the transfer agent to issue certificates for the Worldbid Common Stock to the holder thereof, together with: (i) a Certificate of Non-U.S. Shareholder (if such holder is resident outside of the United States), a copy of which is attached hereto asDisclosure Schedule 2.2A, or (ii) a Certificate of U.S. Shareholder (if such holder is resident in the United States), a copy of which is attached hereto asDisclosure Schedule 2.2B. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.2, each Royalite Stock Certificate will be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive Worldbid Common Stock certificates representing the number of whole shares of Worldbid Common Stock into which the shares of Royalite Common Stock formerly represented by such certificate have been converted. Upon receipt of such duly endorsed Royalite Stock Certificates, Worldbid will cause the issuance of the number of shares of Worldbid Common Stock as converted pursuant to Section 2.1(a) of this Agreement.
2.3 Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Royalite Common Stock (“Dissenting Shares”) that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
2 of 20
Effective Time and held by stockholders who did not vote in favor of the Merger and who comply with all of the relevant provisions of the Nevada Law (the “Royalite Dissenting Stockholders”) will not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive Worldbid Common Stock, unless and until such holders will have failed to perfect or will have effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to appraisal under the Nevada Law. Royalite will give Worldbid (i) immediate oral notice followed by prompt written notice of any written demands for appraisal of any shares of Royalite Common Stock, attempted withdrawals of any such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the Nevada Law and received by Royalite relating to stockholders' rights of appraisal, and (ii) the will keep Worldbid informed of the status of all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the Nevada Law. If any Royalite Dissenting Stockholder fails to perfect or will have effectively withdrawn or lost the right to appraisal, the shares of Royalite Common Stock held by such Dissenting Stockholder will thereupon be treated as though such shares had been converted into the right to receive Worldbid Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Agreement.
2.4 No Further Ownership Rights in Royalite Stock. The promise to exchange the Royalite Common Stock for shares of Worldbid Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Section 2 will be deemed to have been given in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Royalite Common Stock, and there will be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of Royalite of the shares of Royalite Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Royalite Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will cease to have any rights with respect to such Royalite Common Stock, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by law.
2.5 Distributions with Respect to Unsurrendered Royalite Stock. No dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Royalite Stock Certificate until the surrender of such Royalite Stock Certificate in accordance with Section 2.2 of this Agreement. Following surrender of any such Royalite Stock Certificate, Worldbid will pay to the holder of the Worldbid Common Stock certificate issued in exchange the Royalite Stock Certificate, without interest, (i) at the time of such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time previously paid with respect to such Worldbid Common Stock which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Agreement, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such Worldbid Common Stock.
2.6 No Liability. Neither Worldbid, nor Surviving Corporation will be liable to any person in respect of shares of Royalite Common Stock, or dividends or distributions with respect thereto, pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any Royalite Stock Certificate has not have been surrendered prior to seven years after the Effective Time (or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any Royalite Stock Certificate, or any dividends or distributions payable to the holder of such Royalite Stock Certificate would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any governmental body or authority), any such Worldbid Common Stock, dividends or distributions in respect of such Royalite Stock Certificate will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled to such certificate
2.7 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. If any certificate representing Royalite Common Stock has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such certificate or agreement to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Worldbid, the posting by such person of a bond in such reasonable amount as Worldbid may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such certificate, Worldbid will cause to be issued in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the applicable Worldbid Common Stock deliverable in respect thereof, pursuant to Section 2.1 of this Agreement.

(a) For the amount, if any, by which the court finds the fair value of his shares, plus interest, exceeds the amount paid by the subject corporation; or
(b) For the fair value, plus accrued interest, of his after-acquired shares for which the subject corporation elected to withhold payment pursuant toNRS 92A.470.
(Added to NRS by 1995, 2091)
NRS 92A.500 Legal proceeding to determine fair value: Assessment of costs and fees.
1. The court in a proceeding to determine fair value shall determine all of the costs of the proceeding, including the reasonable compensation and expenses of any appraisers appointed by the court. The court shall assess the costs against the subject corporation, except that the court may assess costs against all or some of the dissenters, in amounts the court finds equitable, to the extent the court finds the dissenters acted arbitrarily, vexatiously or not in good faith in demanding payment.
2. The court may also assess the fees and expenses of the counsel and experts for the respective parties, in amounts the court finds equitable:
(a) Against the subject corporation and in favor of all dissenters if the court finds the subject corporation did not substantially comply with the requirements ofNRS 92A.300 to92A.500, inclusive; or
(b) Against either the subject corporation or a dissenter in favor of any other party, if the court finds that the party against whom the fees and expenses are assessed acted arbitrarily, vexatiously or not in good faith with respect to the rights provided byNRS 92A.300 to92A.500, inclusive.
3. If the court finds that the services of counsel for any dissenter were of substantial benefit to other dissenters similarly situated, and that the fees for those services should not be assessed against the subject corporation, the court may award to those counsel reasonable fees to be paid out of the amounts awarded to the dissenters who were benefited.
4. In a proceeding commenced pursuant toNRS 92A.460, the court may assess the costs against the subject corporation, except that the court may assess costs against all or some of the dissenters who are parties to the proceeding, in amounts the court finds equitable, to the extent the court finds that such parties did not act in good faith in instituting the proceeding.
5. This section does not preclude any party in a proceeding commenced pursuant toNRS 92A.460 or92A.490 from applying the provisions ofN.R.C.P. 68 orNRS 17.115.

AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF ROYALITE PETROLEUM CORP.
AS OF APRIL 30, 2006
ROYALITE PETROLEUM CORP
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
APRIL 30, 2006
INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Royalite Petroleum Corp
Henderson, Nevada
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Royalite Petroleum Corp, an exploration stage company, as of April 30, 2006, and the related statements of operations and accumulated deficit, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the period December 2, 2005 (date of inception) to April 30, 2006. These financial statements are the responsibility of Royalite Petroleum Corp’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Royalite Petroleum Corp, an exploration stage company, as of April 30, 2006, and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the period December 2, 2005 (date of inception) to April 30, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in The United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ROYALITE PETROLEUM CORP
(AN EXPLORATION STAGE ENTERPRISE)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, HISTORY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT POLICIES |
| |
| Description of business –Royalite Petroleum Corp referred to as the “Company” is considered an exploration stage company. Since its formation, the Company has not realized any revenues from its planned operations. The Company's primary objective is to identify, acquire and develop oil and gas projects. The Company has acquired interests in properties through leases on which it drills and/or operates oil or gas wells in efforts to discover and/or to produce oil and gas. The Company's interests in the properties vary depending on the availability of the interests and their locations. At April 30, 2006, the Company owned interests in oil and gas properties located within the State of Utah. Royalite holds the exclusive right to use all information relating to minerals and hydrocarbons in the State of Utah derived from a proprietary sensing technology known as the "Moore Radiometer". History - The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 2, 2005. Going concern - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred cumulative net losses of approximately $196,085 since its inception and requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities to take place. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of the common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties. Basis of Presentation - These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company’s fiscal year-end is April 30. Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be a cash equivalent. Oil and Gas Producing Activity The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas operations whereby all costs associated with the exploration for and development of oil and gas reserves, whether productive or unproductive, are capitalized. Such expenditures include land acquisition costs, drilling, exploratory dry holes, geological and geophysical costs not associated with a specific unevaluated property, completion and costs of well equipment. Internal costs are capitalized only if they can be directly identified with acquisition, exploration, or development activities. Expenditures that are considered unlikely to be recovered are written off. On a quarterly basis the Board of Directors assesses whether or not there is an asset impairment. The current oil and gas exploration and development activities are considered to be in the exploration stage. |

| |
| The costs of unproved leases, which become productive, are reclassified to proved properties when proved reserves are discovered in the property. Unproved oil and gas interests are carried at original acquisition costs including filing and title fees. Depreciation and depletion of the capitalized costs for producing oil and gas properties will be provided by the unit-of-production method based on proved oil and gas reserves. Abandonment of properties are recognized as an expense in the period of abandonment and accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs. Impairment of Properties Unproved leasehold costs are reviewed periodically and a loss is recognized to the extent, if any, that the cost of the property has been impaired. Fixed assets - Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are generally 3 to 10 years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for property betterments and renewals are capitalized. Upon sale or other disposition of a depreciable asset, cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in other income (expense). The Company periodically evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated useful life of fixed assets or whether the remaining balance of fixed assets should be evaluated for possible impairment. The Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the fixed assets in measuring their recoverability. Long-lived Assets - Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the use of these assets. When any such impairment exists, the related assets will be written down to fair value. Fair value of financial instruments - Financial accounting standards Statement No. 107, “Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, requires the Company to disclose, when reasonably attainable, the fair market values of its assets and liabilities which are deemed to be financial instruments. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature. Revenue recognition – The Company recognizes oil and gas revenues from its interests in producing wells as oil and gas is produced and sold from these wells. The Company has no gas balancing arrangements in place. Research and Development - All research and development expenditures during the period have been charged to operations. |

| Earnings (loss) per share - The Company follows SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share” and SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity,” which establish standards for the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for basic and diluted earnings per share for entities with publicly-held common shares and potential common stock issuances. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. In computing diluted earnings per share, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted to reflect the effect of potentially dilutive securities, such as stock options and warrants. Common stock equivalent shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is antidilutive. Income taxes - The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Comprehensive income (loss) – The Company’s accumulated other comprehensive loss consists of any accumulated foreign currency translation adjustments. Segment information - The Company discloses segment information in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” which uses the Management approach to determine reportable segments. The Company operates under one segment. Expenses of offering - The Company accounts for specific incremental costs directly to a proposed or actual offering of securities as a direct charge against the gross proceeds of the offering. Stock-based compensation - On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment”, which replaces SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on the grant date fair value of the award. SFAS No. 123R was to be effective for interim or annual reporting periods beginning on or after June 15, 2005, but in April 2005 the SEC issued a rule that will permit most registrants to implement SFAS No. 123R at the beginning of their next fiscal year, instead of the next reporting period as required by SFAS No. 123R. The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS No. 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. Under SFAS No. 123R, the Company must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include prospective and retroactive adoption option. Under the retroactive option, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of SFAS No. 123R, while the retroactive methods would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. The Company has adopted the requirements of SFAS No. 123R. |

| New accounting pronouncements – In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.” SFAS No. 151 amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing,” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handing costs, and spoilage. This statement requires that those items be recognized as current period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of "so abnormal" which was the criterion specified in ARB No. 43. In addition, this Statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the cost of production be based on normal capacity of the production facilities. This pronouncement is effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2005. The Company does not believe adopting this new standard will have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.” The Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and to changes required by an accounting pronouncement that do not include explicit transition provisions. SFAS No. 154 requires that changes in accounting principle be retroactively applied, instead of including the cumulative effect in the income statement. The correction of an error will continue to require financial statement restatement. A change in accounting estimate will continue to be accounted for in the period of change and in subsequent periods, if necessary. SFAS No. 154 is effective for fiscal years beginning after April 30, 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption of this Statement to have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155,Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments (“SFAS No. 155”), which amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS No. 133”) and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140,Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities (“SFAS No. 140”). SFAS No. 155 permits fair value measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or hybrid financial instruments containing embedded derivatives.The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 155 to have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In March 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156,Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets(“SFAS No. 156”), which amends FASB Statement No. 140 (“SFAS No. 140”). SFAS 156 may be adopted as early as January 1, 2006, for calendar year-end entities, provided that no interim financial statements have been issued. Those not choosing to early adopt are required to apply the provisions as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006 (e.g., January 1, 2007, for calendar year-end entities). The intention of the new statement is to simplify accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities, such as those common with mortgage securitization activities, as well as to simplify efforts to obtain hedge-like accounting. Specifically, the FASB said FAS No. 156 permits a servicer using derivative financial instruments to report both the derivative financial instrument and related servicing asset or liability by using a consistent measurement attribute, or fair value. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 156 to have material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. |

AS OF JULY 31, 2006
ROYALITE PETROLEUM CORP
(AN EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY)
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 2006
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors
Royalite Petroleum Corp
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Royalite Petroleum Corp (an exploration stage company) as of July 31, 2006 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the three months then ended. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the management of Royalite Petroleum Corp.
We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 6 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the balance sheet of Royalite Petroleum Corp as of April 30, 2006, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the period December 2, 2005 (date of inception) to April 30, 2006 (not presented herein); and in our report dated August 25, 2006, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements which included an explanatory paragraph describing Royalite Petroleum Corp’s ability to continue as a going concern as described in Note 6 to the financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying balance sheet as of April 30, 2006 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the balance sheet from which it has been derived.

1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
| |
| The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission requirements for interim financial statements. Therefore, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Form 10-KSB for the year ended April 30, 2006 Royalite Petroleum Corp (the "Company"). |
| |
| The interim financial statements present the balance sheet, statements of operations and cash flows of the Company. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. |

| |
| The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

2. | GOING CONCERN |

| The Company incurred cumulative net losses of approximately $394,012 from operations as of July 31, 2006, has not commenced its mining operations, and is still in the exploration stage, raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

| The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on additional sources of capital and the success of the Company’s plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. |

NOTES TO PRO-FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
| |
| These Pro-Forma unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the audited financial statements of Worldbid Corporation (“Worldbid”) as of April 30, 2006, the unaudited financial statements of Worldbid as of July 31, 2006, the unaudited financial statements of Royalite Petroleum Corp. (“Royalite”) as of April 30, 2006 and the audited financial statements of Royalite as of July 31, 2006, giving effect to an Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into on August 23, 2006 (See Note 2) as though it had occurred on April 30, 2006. |
| |
| In the opinion of management of Worldbid, these unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for fair presentation of the acquisition of Royalite by Worldbid as described below. |
| |
| The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of Worldbid and Royalite referred to above and included elsewhere in this 8-K. |
| |
| These unaudited pro forma financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations, which would have resulted if the combination and related transactions had actually occurred on April 30, 2006. |
| |
2. | AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER |
| |
| Worldbid proposes to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Royalite, by issuing 24,960,667 common shares. Since the transaction will result in the former shareholders of Royalite owning the majority of the issued shares of Worldbid, the transaction, which is referred to a reverse take-over has been treated for accounting purposes as an acquisition by Royalite of the net assets and liabilities of Worldbid. |
| |
| Worldbid had a net asset deficiency at April 30, 2006 of $282,542; therefore the ascribed value of the 24,960,667 shares issued was $nil, with the net asset deficiency of $282,542 being charged to deficit. |
| |
| The acquisition is summarized as follows: |
Current assets | $ | 74,673 | |
Current liabilities | | 357,215 | |
| | | |
Net asset deficiency | $ | (282,542 | ) |

NOTES TO PRO-FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
2. | AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER(Continued) |
| | |
| The closing of the Merger is subject to Worldbid disposing of its interest in its wholly owned subsidiary, Worldbid Canada Corporation (the “subsidiary”). The disposition of the subsidiary will be completed by a distribution of the shares of the subsidiary to the shareholders of Worldbid at the record date of the distribution. The record date of the distribution is yet to be determined. All inter company balances and transactions between Worldbid and the subsidiary have been eliminated from the pro-forma financial statements as if the disposition of the subsidiary had occurred on April 30, 2006. |
| | |
3. | PRO-FORMA ADJUSTMENTS |
| | |
| The unaudited pro-forma consolidated financial statements include the following pro-forma adjustments. |
| | |
| a) | To record the disposal of the subsidiary as at April 30, 2006. |
| | |
| b) | To record the issuance of 24,960,667 common shares of Worldbid to the acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Royalite. |
| | |
| c) | To eliminate the capital stock, additional paid in capital and contributed surplus of Worldbid (the net asset deficiency) against accumulated deficit. |
| | |
| d) | To adjust the par value of the outstanding common shares of Worldbid to actual. |
| | |
| e) | To eliminate the result of operations of Worldbid for the period prior to the reverse take-over. |
| | |
| f) | To record the disposal of the subsidiary as at April 30, 2006 and to eliminate any changes in net assets of the subsidiary included in the Worldbid financial statements during the three month period ended July 31, 2006. |
| | |
4. | PRO-FORMA LOSS PER SHARE |
| | |
| Pro-forma loss per share has been calculated using the historical weighted average number of shares previously reported and amended as if the pro-forma common shares of Worldbid issued pursuant to the proposed acquisition and merger had been outstanding since the beginning of the periods. |
