The Information Statement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and is being furnished, pursuant to Section 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), to notify our stockholders of actions we are amending our Articles of Incorporation ("Articles of Incorporation") to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from ten billion shares (10,000,000,000) to twenty-five billion shares (25,000,000,000) shares, par value $0.00001 per share.
On August 25, 2017, the record date for determining the identity of stockholders who are entitled to receive this Information Statement, we had 6,393,310,100 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and 1,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock outstanding. Each share of Series A preferred stock had 100,000 votes. The total power of the Series A preferred stock is 100,000,000,000 votes. Accordingly, the combined voting power of all of the Series A preferred stock and all the common stock was 106,393,310,100 votes. The holders of the Series A preferred stock and the common stock vote as a single class on all matters submitted to stockholders. The common stock and Series A preferred stock constitute the sole outstanding classes of ECOS voting securities. Each share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote on all matters submitted to stockholders. Each share of preferred stock entitles the holder to 100,000 votes on all matters submitted to stockholders.
NO VOTE OR OTHER CONSENT OF OUR STOCKHOLDERS IS BEING 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 August 25, 2017, certain stockholders who beneficially owned 76,866,031,041, or approximately 72.25%, of the combined voting power of the common stock and Series A preferred stock consented in writing to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from ten billion shares (10,000,000,000) to twenty-five billion shares (25,000,000,000) shares, par value $0.00001 per share.
Also on August 25, 2017, our board of directors approved the above action, subject to approval by the stockholders. No other corporate action will be taken.
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 stockholders 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.
This information statement is being mailed or otherwise furnished to stockholders of ECOLOCAP SOLUTIONS INC., a Nevada corporation (the "Company" or "we") in connection with the prior receipt by the Board of Directors of approval by written consent of the holders of a majority of our common stock of proposals to:
Increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from ten billion shares (10,000,000,000) to twenty-five billion shares (25,000,000,000) shares, par value $0.00001 per share.
This information statement is being first sent to stockholders on or about September 11, 2017. We anticipate that the amendments to our articles of incorporation increasing the authorized share capital will become effective on or about October 1, 2017, twenty (20) days after mailing.

(1) | Each share of preferred stock has 100,000 votes. The total voting power of the Series A preferred stock is 100,000,000,000 votes. |
Reasons for the Amendment
We are currently authorized to issue 10,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.00001 per share. Currently, there are 6,393,310,100 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Based upon our information, we believe that the loans will be converted in consideration of 9,600,000,000 restricted shares of common stock. We currently do not have enough authorized shares of common stock to satisfy the option exercises and the conversion of debt to common shares. It is in our best interest to convert the debt to equity in that it will eliminate debt in the amount of $576,000. Other than the plan to issue shares upon the exercise of options and convert the debt to shares of common stock, we have no plans or arrangements to issue any additional shares of common stock.
More generally, the increase in the authorized number of shares of common stock will enable us to engage in (i) possible future financings and (ii) such other corporate purposes as the Board of Directors determines in its discretion. These corporate purposes may include future stock splits, stock dividends or other distributions, future financings, acquisitions and stock options and other equity benefits under possible new benefit plans.
After the increase in the authorized number of shares of common stock, there will be available for issuance, 9,006,689,900 shares of our common stock after giving effect to 6,393,310,100 shares of Common Stock outstanding; and, 9,600,000,000 restricted shares of Common Stock to be issued to extinguish existing debt. The par value of our common stock will remain $0.00001 share. The relative rights and limitations of the shares of common stock would remain unchanged under the Share Increase Amendment.
Effect of the Increase in Authorized Shares of Common Stock
Following the increase in authorized shares of common stock, we will have the corporate authority to issue 15,000,000,000 additional shares of common stock. These shares may be issued without stockholder approval at any time, in the sole discretion of our board of directors. The authorized and unissued shares may be issued for cash, to acquire property or for any other purpose that is deemed in the best interests of our company. Any decision to issue additional shares will reduce the percentage of our stockholders' equity held by our current stockholders and could dilute our net tangible book value. We have no immediate plans, proposals or arrangements, written or otherwise, to use these authorized and unissued shares of common stock other than to issue approximately 9,600,000,000 shares of common stock upon the conversion of certain outstanding promissory notes into shares of common stock.
The following table reflects the authorized shares and outstanding shares of common stock before and after the increase in authorized shares of common stock:
Shares of Common Stock | Before Amendment | After Amendment |
Authorized Shares | 10,000,000,000 | 25,000,000,000 |
Common Shares Outstanding | 6,393,310,100 | 6,393,310,100 |
Common Shares Designated for Issuance Upon Conversion of Outstanding Convertible Notes (1) | 9,600,000,000 | 9,600,000,000 |
Reservation of shares required for convertible Notes | 542,000,000 | 542,000,000 |
Common Shares Designated for Issuance upon exercise of warrants by Lakeshore Recycling Systems LLC: | 2,398,996,515 | 2,398,996,515 |
Unauthorized shares needed to satisfy current obligations | ||
Remaining Authorized Shares Available for Issuance | (8,933,973,282) | 6,066,026,718 |
(1) | Comprised of: approximately 9,600,000,000 shares for Tonaquint, Inc. upon conversion of $576,000 of debt. |
Our authorized and unissued shares could possibly be used by management to oppose a hostile takeover attempt, delay or prevent changes of control, or changes in or removal of management. This could include transactions that are favored by a majority of stockholders, or in which the stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then-current market price, or benefit stockholders in some other manner. Tender offers or other non-open market acquisitions of stock are usually made at prices above the prevailing market price. In addition, acquisitions of stock by persons attempting to acquire control through market purchases may cause the market price of the stock to reach levels that are higher than would otherwise be the case.
The available authorized and unissued shares of common stock gives the company the ability to cause a potential anti-takeover effect by creating potential dilution to the number of outstanding shares. Such dilution will cause a party attempting a takeover to be required to buy more shares of the company stock and to expend additional resources to accomplish a takeover.
Certain Effects of the Amendment
The increase in authorized shares of common stock is not being proposed as a means of preventing or dissuading a change in control or takeover of us. However, use of these shares for such a purpose is possible. Authorized but unissued or unreserved common stock, for example, could be issued in an effort to dilute the stock ownership and voting power of persons seeking to obtain control of us or could be issued to purchasers who would support the Board of Directors in opposing a takeover proposal. In addition, the increase in authorized shares of common stock, if approved, may have the effect of discouraging a challenge for control or make it less likely that such a challenge, if attempted, would be successful. The Board of Directors and our executive officers have no knowledge of any current effort to obtain control of us or to accumulate large amounts of shares of our common stock.
The holders of shares of our Common Stock are not entitled to pre-emptive rights with respect to the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock. Accordingly, the issuance of additional shares of our Common Stock or such other securities might dilute the ownership and voting rights of stockholders.
The proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation does not change the terms of the Common Stock. The additional shares of Common Stock for which authorization is sought will have the same voting rights, the same rights to dividends and distributions and will be identical in all other respects to the Common Stock now authorized.
We could also use the additional shares of common stock for potential strategic transactions, including, among other things, acquisitions, spin-offs, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, restructurings, divestitures, business combinations and investments. We cannot provide assurances that any such transactions will be consummated on favorable terms or at all, that they will enhance stockholder value or that they will not adversely affect our business or the trading price of the common s tock. Any such transaction may require us to incur non-recurring or other charges and may pose significant integration challenges and/or management and business disruptions, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business and financial results.
If approved by stockholders, it is anticipated that the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation will become effective upon the filing of a certificate of amendment with the Secretary of State for the State of Nevada, which filing is expected to occur twenty-one days after this Information Statement is mailed to you.
