2. Approved an amendment to the Company’s certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company from 40,000,000 shares to 250,000,0000 shares. (Action 2).
OUTSTANDING SHARES AND VOTING RIGHTS
The record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive notice on the preceding items was October 1, 2008.

Holders of Common Stock of the Company have no preemptive rights to acquire or subscribe to any of the additional shares of Common Stock.
Each share of Common Stock entitles its holder to one vote on each matter submitted to the stockholders. However, because stockholders holding all of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company as of October 1, 2008 have voted in favor of the foregoing proposals by resolution dated October 1, 2008; and having sufficient voting power to approve such proposals through their ownership of stock, no other stockholder consents will be solicited in connection with this Information Statement.
Under Delaware Corporation Law (“DCL”), our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws, all activities requiring shareholder approval may be taken by obtaining the written consent and approval of shareholders having not less than the minimum number of votes which would be necessary to authorize or take the action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on a matter were present and voted, may be substituted for the special meeting. According to the DCL, a vote by 51% of the outstanding shares of voting capital stock entitled to vote on the matter is required in order to effect the amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation.
The Company will forward this Information Statement to the beneficial owners of the Common Stock held as of the Record Date by such persons and will reimburse such persons for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in forwarding such material.
The accompanying Information Statement is for information purposes. Please read the accompanying Information Statement carefully.

_______________
(1) Beneficial ownership percentages is calculated based on 1,000,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding on October 17, 2008. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act. The number of shares beneficially owned by a person includes shares of common stock underlying options or warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days. The shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of those options or warrants are deemed outstanding for computing the percentage ownership of the person holding those options and warrants but are not deemed outstanding for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.
The persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and sole investment power with respect to the shares set forth opposite that person’s name, subject to community property laws, where applicable, unless otherwise noted in the applicable footnote.
(2) Greg Sichenzia, Marc Ross, Richard Friedman, Michael Ference, Thomas Rose, Jeffrey Fessler and Darrin Ocasio have voting and dispositive powers over the securities of the Company owned by Mondo Management Corp. Messrs. Sichenzia, Ross, Friedman, Ference, Rose, Fessler and Ocasio disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares owned by Mondo Management Corp.
ACTION 1: CHANGE OF CORPORATE NAME TO GREEN PLANET BIOENGINEERING CO. LIMITED
The Board of Directors believes the name change would be in the best interest of the Company as the new name better reflects the long-term strategy and identity of the Company. While the “Mondo Acquisition II, Inc.” name has served the Company over time, the Company’s management believes this opportunity presented the right timing to change the Company’s name.
To better reflect our new business direction, our board of Directors and the majority of our shareholders determined that we should change our name to Green Planet Bioengineering Co. Limited.
ACTION 2: AMEND THE COMPANY’S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPROATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK, PAR VALUE $0.001 PER SHARE, OF THE COMPANY FROM 40,000,000 SHARES TO 250,000,000 SHARES
The Board of Directors of the Company and shareholders holding all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock have approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock from 40,000,000 to 250,000,000, of which 1,000,000 shares are issued and outstanding. The Company also continues to have authorized Preferred Stock of 10,000,000, of which none is issued and outstanding. The creation of additional shares of authorized Common Stock did not alter the current number of issued shares. The relative rights and limitations of the shares of Common Stock will remain unchanged under this amendment.
The terms of the additional shares of Common Stock are identical to those of the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock. However, because holders of Common Stock do not have any preemptive or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase any additional shares of Common Stock that may be issued in the future, the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock or issuance and conversion of Preferred Stock may, depending on the circumstances, have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share, voting power and other interests of the existing shareholders in the total outstanding shares of Common Stock. All outstanding shares of Common Stock are of the same class and have equal rights and attributes. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company. All stockholders are entitled to share equally in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available. In the event of liquidation, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of all liabilities. The stockholders do not have cumulative or preemptive rights.
As of the Record Date, 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock are issued and outstanding. The increase in the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock enables the Company, without further shareholder approval, to issue shares from time to time as may be required for proper business purposes, such as raising additional capital for ongoing operations, business and asset acquisitions, stock splits and dividends, present and future employee benefit programs and other corporate purposes.
The increase in the authorized number of shares of Common Stock could have a number of effects on the Company's shareholders depending upon the exact nature and circumstances of any actual issuances of authorized but unissued shares. The increase could have an anti-takeover effect, in that additional shares could be issued (within the limits imposed by applicable law) in one or more transactions that could make a change in control or takeover of the Company more difficult. For example, additional shares could be issued by the Company so as to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to obtain control of the Company. Similarly, the issuance of additional shares to certain persons allied with the Company's management could have the effect of making it more difficult to remove the Company's current management by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of persons seeking to cause such removal. Except as further discussed herein, the Board of Directors is not aware of any attempt, or contemplated attempt, to acquire control of the Company, and this proposal is not being presented with the intent that it be utilized as a type of anti-takeover device.
