SUMMARY OF CORPORATE ACTIONS
On September 30, 2010, our Board of Director and the holder of a majority of the Company’s Common Stock approved the amendments to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation which will authorize the Amendments. The Amendments were approved by written consent of the shareholders holding approximately 92% of our outstanding Common Stock (the “Majority Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Nevada Revised Statutes, the Amendments are required to be approved by a majority of our shareholders. This approval could be obtained either by the written consent of the holders of a majority of our issued and outstanding voting securities, or it could be considered by our shareholders at a special shareholders' meeting convened for the specific purpose of approving the Amendments. The Company’s voting securities consist of Common Stock. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share on any matter requiring shareholder vote. In order to eliminate the costs and management time involved in holding a special meeting, our Board of Directors voted to utilize the written consent of the Majority Shareholders. The elimination of the need for a meeting of shareholders to approve this action is made possible by Section 78.320 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, as may be amended, which provides that the written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of voting capital stock, having no less than the minimum number of votes which would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present.
As of September 30, 2010, there were 26,452,933 issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock.
The date on which this Information Statement was first sent to shareholders is on or about November 19, 2010 (the “Mailing Date”). Inasmuch as we will have provided this Information Statement to our shareholders of record as of the record date of September 30, 2010 (“Record Date”) no additional action will be undertaken pursuant to such written consent. Shareholders of record on the Record Date who did not consent to the Amendments are not entitled to dissenter's rights under Nevada law.
The Amendments will be effective twenty (20) days after this Information Statement is first mailed to our shareholders. No further vote of our shareholders is required.
THE AMENDMENTS HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, NOR HAS THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE FAIRNESS OR MERIT OF THE CHARTER AMENDMENT NOR UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS UNLAWFUL.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NEITHER A REQUEST FOR YOUR VOTE NOR A PROXY STATEMENT, BUT RATHER AN INFORMATION STATEMENT DESIGNED TO INFORM YOU OF THE AMENDMENT THAT WILL OCCUR IF THE AMENDMENTS ARE COMPLETED AND TO PROVIDE YOU WITH INFORMATION ABOUT THE AMENDMENT AND THE BACKGROUND OF THESE TRANSACTIONS.
The entire cost of furnishing this Information Statement will be borne by the Company. We will request brokerage houses, nominees, custodians, fiduciaries and other like parties to forward this Information Statement to the beneficial owners of our voting securities held of record by them and we will reimburse such persons for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in forwarding such material.
AMENDMENT TO OUR AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THE CORPORATION
The change of the Company’s name to Shamika 2 Gold, Inc. will better reflect the Company’s business plan following its reverse acquisition of Shamika Gold, Inc. (“Shamika”) on March 29, 2010, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange with Shamika and certain shareholders of Shamika.
AMENDMENT TO OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE OUR AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK FROM 50,000,000 TO 300,000,000
The Amendment authorizes the increase of the number of the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock, par value $0.00001, from 50,000,000 to 300,000,000. Our Board of Directors believes it is in the Company’s best interests and the best interests of our shareholders to increase the number of authorized shares of our Common Stock to allow for the issuance of shares of our Common Stock or other securities in connection with such potential issuances and such other purposes as our Board of Directors determines.
The increase in the authorized number of shares of our Common Stock will permit our Board of Directors to issue additional shares of our Common Stock without further approval of our shareholders, and our Board of Directors does not intend to seek shareholder approval prior to any issuance of the authorized capital stock unless shareholder approval is required by applicable law or stock market or exchange requirements. Although from time to time we review various transactions that could result in the issuance of shares of our Common Stock, we have not reviewed any transaction to date.
We do not have in place provisions which 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 of Directors.
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, and such issuance may not require shareholder approval. It may also adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. However, if additional shares are issued in transactions whereby favorable business opportunities are provided which allow us to pursue our business plans, the market price of our Common Stock may increase.
