NOTICE OF ACTION TAKEN BY WRITTEN CONSENT OF OUR MAJORITY STOCKHOLDERS
To Our Stockholders:
We are writing to advise you that two stockholders, owning 80% of our outstanding shares of common stock, have approved by written consent the proposals (a) to change our authorized capitalization by increasing our authorized common stock from 20,000,000 to 100,000,000 shares, par value $0.00001 per share, and (b) to empower the board of directors to change the name of our corporation, without stockholder approval.
On September 21, 2011, our board of directors unanimously approved the above proposals and to amend our articles of incorporation to reflect the changes.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE NUMBER OF VOTES RECEIVED FROM THE TWO STOCKHOLDERS IS SUFFICIENT TO SATISFY THE STOCKHOLDER VOTE REQUIREMENT FOR THESE ACTIONS UNDER NEVADA LAW AND NO ADDITIONAL VOTES WILL CONSEQUENTLY BE NEEDED TO APPROVE THE ACTIONS.
No action is required by you. The accompanying information statement is furnished only to inform stockholders of the actions taken by written consent described above before they take effect in accordance with Rule 14c-2, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. This information statement is first being mailed to you on or about October __, 2011 and we anticipate the effective date of the amendment to be November __, 2011 or as soon thereafter as practicable in accordance with applicable law, including the Nevada Revised Statutes.

The accompanying information statement is for information purposes only and explains the actions taken by written consent. Please read the accompanying information statement carefully.

INFORMATION STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 14(c)
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 AND
REGULATION 14C THEREUNDER
This information statement is being sent by first class mail to all record and beneficial owners of the common stock, $0.00001 par value, of Eastgate Acquisitions Corporation, a Nevada corporation, which we refer to herein as “Eastgate,” “company,” “we,” “our” or “us.” The mailing date of this information statement is on or about October __, 2011. The information statement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and is being furnished, pursuant to Regulation 14C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to notify our stockholders of actions we are taking pursuant to written consents of a majority of our stockholders in lieu of a meeting of stockholders.
On September 21, 2011, the record date for determining the identity of stockholders who are entitled to receive this information statement, we had 1,500,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The common stock constitutes the sole outstanding class of Eastgate voting securities. Each share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on all matters submitted to stockholders.
NO VOTE OR OTHER CONSENT OF OUR STOCKHOLDERS IS SOLICITED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT. WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY.
On September 21, 2011, two stockholders who beneficially own in the aggregate 1,200,000 shares, or 80% of our issued and outstanding common stock, consented in writing to amend our articles of incorporation to increase our authorized common stock to 100 million shares and to empower the board of directors to change our corporate name without stockholder approval
Also on September 21, 2011, our board of directors approved the above actions, subject to approval by the stockholders. No other corporate actions to be taken by written consent were considered.
We are not aware of any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by security holders or otherwise, that is in opposition to matters of action being taken. In addition, pursuant to the laws of Nevada, the actions to be taken by majority written consent in lieu of a special stockholder meeting do not create appraisal or dissenters’ rights.
Our board of directors determined to pursue stockholder action by majority written consent of those shares entitled to vote in an effort to reduce the costs and management time required to hold a special meeting of stockholders and to implement the above action in a timely manner.
Under Section 14(c) of the Exchange Act, actions taken by written consent without a meeting of stockholders cannot become effective until 20 days after the mailing date of this definitive information statement, or as soon thereafter as is practicable. We are not seeking written consent from any stockholders other than as set forth above and our other stockholders will not be given an opportunity to vote with respect to the actions taken. All necessary corporate approvals have been obtained, and this information statement is furnished solely for the purpose of advising stockholders of the actions taken by written consent and giving stockholders advance notice of the actions taken.
FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This information statement and other reports that we file with the SEC contain certain forward-looking statements relating to future events performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will” “should," “expect," "intend," "plan," anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," or similar terms, variations of such terms or the negative of such terms. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those risks discussed elsewhere herein. Although forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment, actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
OUTSTANDING VOTING SECURITIES AND CONSENTING STOCKHOLDERS
As of the date of the consent by the majority stockholders on September 21, 2011, Eastgate had issued and outstanding 1,500,000 shares of common stock. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on matters submitted for stockholder approval.
On September 20, 2011, the holders of 1,200,000 shares of our common stock (or 80% of the total shares then outstanding) executed and delivered to the board of directors written consents approving the actions. Because the actions were approved by stockholders that own a majority of our outstanding shares, no proxies are being solicited with this information statement.
Nevada corporate law provides in substance that unless a company’s articles of incorporation provide otherwise, stockholders may take action without a meeting of stockholders and without prior notice if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by stockholders having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present.
The consenting stockholders are the beneficial owners of 1,200,000 shares of our common stock, which represents 80% of the total number of voting shares. The consenting stockholders voted in favor of the actions described herein pursuant to written consents dated September 21, 2011. No consideration was paid for the consents. Those consenting stockholders are set forth below.
| Name | Number of Shares | | |
| Edward F. Cowle | 600,000 | 40.0 % | |
| Geoff Williams | 600,000 | 40.0% | |
| | Note: | Unless otherwise indicated, we have been advised that each person above has sole voting and investment power over the shares indicated above. |
| | (1) | Based upon 1,500,000 shares of common stock outstanding on September 20, 2011. |
ACTION TO CHANGE OUR AUTHORIZED CAPITALIZATION
On September 21, 2011, our board of directors approved, subject to receiving the approval of the holders of a majority of our outstanding common stock, an amendment of our articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock we may issue from 20,000,000 to 100,000,000 shares. Also on September 21, 2011, two stockholders holding 80% of our outstanding shares, approved the amendment pursuant to written consents. The amendment effecting the change in capitalization will become effective upon filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, which will occur promptly following the 20th day after the mailing of this information statement to our stockholders as of the record date.
We are currently authorized by our articles of incorporation to issue 20,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.00001 par value per share. Pursuant to the amendment we will increase the number of common shares we are authorized to issue to 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.00001 par value per share. As of the date the amendment was approved by our board and by stockholders holding a majority of our outstanding shares, there were 1,500,000 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.
All shares of common stock have equal rights and privileges with respect to voting, liquidation and dividend rights. Each share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to:
(a) one non-cumulative vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders;
(b) to participate equally and to receive any and all such dividends as may be declared by the board of directors; and
| (b) | to participate pro rata in any distribution of assets available for distribution upon liquidation. |
Holders of our common stock have no preemptive rights to acquire additional shares of common stock or any other securities. The common stock is not subject to redemption and carries no subscription or conversion rights.
Reasons For and Effects Of the Increase in Common Shares
Our board of directors believes it is in the company’s best interest and the best interest of our stockholders to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock. This will allow for the future issuance of additional shares in connection with transactions including, but not limited to, financings, possible acquisitions, and other purposes as the board may determine. The board believes that the share increase will afford greater flexibility in seeking capital and potential future acquisition. Although we are actively seeking and investigating potential business opportunities to acquire or merge with, we have not entered into any material plan, understanding, agreement or commitment or other arrangement to issue additional shares of common stock.
The increase in the authorized number of shares of our common stock will permit our board to issue additional common shares without further approval of stockholders. Our board does not intend to seek stockholder approval prior to any issuance of authorized capital stock, unless stockholder approval is required by applicable law or stock market or exchange requirements. The issuance of additional shares of common stock may result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders, and such issuances may not require stockholder approval.
The increase in our authorized common stock could have a number of effects on our stockholders, depending upon the exact nature and circumstances of any actual issuances of authorized but unissued shares. Although this action is not intended to have any anti-takeover effects, the increase could have an anti-takeover effect, in that additional shares could be issued (within the limits proposed by applicable law) in one or more transactions that could make a change in control or takeover of us more difficult. For example, additional shares could be issued so as to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to obtain control of Eastgate, even if the persons seeking to obtain control of us offer an above the market premium that is favored by a majority of the independent stockholders. Similarly, the issuance of additional shares to certain person allied with our management could have the effect of making it more difficult to remove our current management by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to cause such removal.
We do not have any other provisions in our articles of incorporation, by-laws, employment agreements or any other documents that have material anti-takeover consequences. Additionally, we have no plans or proposals to adopt other provisions or enter into other arrangements that may have material anti-takeover consequences. Our board of directors is not aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of us, and this proposal is not being presented with intent that it be utilized as a type of anti-takeover device. Stockholders should recognize that, as a result of this proposal, they would own a smaller percentage of shares with respect to our total authorized shares than they presently own, and will be diluted as a result of any future issuances contemplated by us.
We presently do not have in place provisions that may have an anti-takeover effect. The increase in the authorized number of shares of our common stock did not result from our knowledge of any specific effort to accumulate our securities or to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy solicitation in opposition to management or otherwise, and we did not take such action to increase the authorized shares of our common stock to enable us to frustrate any efforts by another party to acquire a controlling interest or to seek representation on our board.
The issuance of additional shares of our common stock may have a dilutive effect on earnings per share and on the equity and voting power of existing security holders of our common stock. It may also, depending on the circumstances, adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared by the board out of funds legally available. We have not paid any dividends since our inception, and we presently anticipate that all future earnings, if any, will be retained for development of our business. Any future disposition of dividends will be at the discretion of our board and will depend upon, among other things, future earnings, operating and financial condition, capital requirements, and other factors.
ACTION TO EMPOWER BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO CHANGE CORPORATE NAME
On September 21, 2011, our board of directors approved, subject to receiving the approval of the holders of a majority of our outstanding common stock, an amendment of our articles of incorporation to
empower the board of directors to change our corporate name, without stockholder approval, to a name that will promote or better describe our business that the board, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. Also on September 21, 2011, two stockholders holding 80% of our outstanding shares, approved the amendment pursuant to written consents. The amendment will become effective upon filing the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, which will occur promptly following the 20th day after the mailing of this information statement to our stockholders as of the record date.
Empowering the board to change our corporate name without stockholder approval will make it more convenient, less costly and less time consuming to make a future name change. If in the future the board determines that a change in corporate name is advisable, it will be able to make the change without the time and cost involved in calling for and holding a meeting of stockholders and soliciting votes. This special power bestowed on the board is limited to making corporate name changes.
