INFORMATION STATEMENT
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE
REQUESTED NOT TO SEND A PROXY
INTRODUCTION
This Information Statement is being furnished to stockholders of Rocky Mountain Fudge Company, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (the "Company," the "Corporation," "Rocky Mountain Fudge" "we," "our," "us" or words or similar import), regarding the following proposal:
PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO OUR AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE
AUTHORIZED SHARES FROM 50,000,000 TO 110,000,000
Currently, our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, authorizes us to issue up to fifty thousand (50,000,000) shares of our common stock. Currently we have two million two hundred fifty thousand (2,250,000) shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.
We wish to amend our Articles of Incorporation to authorize us to issue up to one hundred million (100,000,000) shares of common stock of our Company and ten million (10,000,000) shares of preferred stock of our Company. The following is the text of the proposed amendment, which shall replace the current Article Three of our Articles of Incorporation:
ARTICLE THREE - CAPITALIZATION
A. The Company is authorized to issue two classes of stock to be designated, respectively, “Common Stock” and “Preferred Stock.” The total number of shares which the Company is authorized to issue is one hundred million (110,000,000) shares, one-hundred million (100,000,000) shares of which shall be Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) and ten million (10,000,000) shares of which shall be Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”). The Preferred Stock shall have a par value of one-tenth of one cent ($0.001) per share and the Common Stock shall have a par value of one-tenth of one cent ($0.001) per share.
Purpose of the Proposal.
Our Board of Directors is seeking to ensure that shares of our common stock and preferred stock will be available for future issuance in the event our Board of Directors determines that it is necessary or advisable in the future to do any of the following:
(a) raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities to fund business operations;
·
(b) provide equity incentives to employees, officers and consultants;
·
(c) declare stock dividends and/or effect stock splits; and/or
(d) other corporate purposes.
Effects of the Proposal.
Although our Board of Directors will authorize the issuance of additional shares of stock or instruments into which the stock is exercisable or convertible for only when it considers doing so to be in the best interests of our Company. In addition, the ability to issue additional shares could enable our Board of Directors to render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company through, for example, a proposed merger, tender offer or proxy contest. Neither management nor the Board of Directors is aware of any planned effort on the part of any party to accumulate material amounts of common stock or to acquire control of our Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, or to change our Company’s management.
Rights of Holders of Common Stock
Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders and to receive, ratably, dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors from funds legally available therefore, subject to the payment of any outstanding preferential dividends declared with respect to any preferred stock that from time to time may be outstanding. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to stockholders after payment of all of our obligations, subject to the rights to receive preferential distributions of the holders of any preferred stock then outstanding.
Timing of the Amendment.
The proposed amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation will become effective upon filing of an Article of Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State. Pursuant to Rule 14c-2 under the Exchange Act, the proposed amendment may not be filed until twenty calendar days after the mailing of this information statement to our stockholders. We anticipate filing the amendment immediately following the expiration of the twenty-day waiting period. However, our board of directors retains discretion under Nevada Law not to implement the amendment. If our board exercises this discretion, our articles will not change.
The amendment to the Articles of Incorporation will become effective on the later of the opening of business on May 11, 2008, or a date that is at least 21 days from the mailing of this Information Statement to our stockholders.
The amendment to our Articles of Incorporation is the only matter covered by this Information Statement.
Dissenters Rights.
There are no dissenters' rights applicable to the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation.
Interest of Certain Persons in Matters to be Acted Upon

AND VOTE REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL
Nevada Law.

Section 78.385 of the Nevada Revised Statutes states that every amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of a corporation shall first be adopted by resolution of the Board of Directors and then be subject to the approval of persons owning a majority of the securities entitled to vote on any such amendment. Sections 78.315 and 78.320 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, respectively, provides that the Board of Directors, by unanimous written consent, and persons owning the required majority of voting securities necessary adopt any action that would otherwise be required to be submitted to a meeting of stockholders, may adopt such action by written consent, without a formal meeting of stockholders
On March 31, 2008 the stockholders of eighty percent (80%) of our issued and outstanding common stock agreed through a written consent to approve the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation as outlined above. As the approval for the amendment was obtained by a majority of our Company’s stockholders, no additional votes are required or necessary to adopt the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation, and none are being solicited hereunder. See the caption "Voting Securities and Principal Holders Thereof" herein.
NOTICE
THE MAJORITY STOCKHOLDER OF OUR COMPANY THAT HAS CONSENTED TO THE ADOPTION OF THESE RESTATED AND AMENDED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND HAS CONSENTED TO THE FOURTEEN-TO-ONE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OWNS IN EXCESS OF THE REQUIRED NUMBER OF OUR OUTSTANDING VOTING SECURITIES TO ADOPT THESE AMENDMENTS UNDER NEVADA LAW, AND HAS DONE SO.
