Beneficial Ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock subject to options, warrants, or convertible debt currently exercisable or convertible, or exercisable or convertible within 60 days of the Record Date are deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of the person holding such option or warrant. Percentages are based on a total of 551,835,737 shares of common stock outstanding as of the date of this information statement and shares issuable upon the exercise of options, warrants exercisable, and debt convertible on or within 60 days of the date of this information statement, as described above. The inclusion in the aforementioned table of those shares, however, does not constitute an admission that the named shareholder is a direct or indirect beneficial owner of those shares. Unless otherwise indicated, to our knowledge based upon information produced by the persons and entities named in the table, each person or entity named in the table has sole voting power and investment power, or shares voting and/or investment power with his or her spouse, with respect to all shares of capital stock listed as owned by that person or entity.

Mr. Leopold, the Company’s CEO and Chairman owns 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. Each outstanding share of the Series A Preferred Stock has 10 votes per share, and may be converted to shares of common at a ratio of 5 to 1, which would thus convert to 20,000,000 shares of common stock. The Series A Preferred Stock was issued in August 2009. Mr. Leopold is prohibited from converting any of his Preferred Stock without providing the Company with at least 61 days advance notice.
(5) 
Mr. Leopold owns 100 shares of the Company’s Series I Preferred Stock. Each outstanding share of the Series I Preferred Stock represents its proportionate share of eighty per cent (80%) of all votes entitled to be voted and which is allocated to the outstanding shares of Series I Preferred Stock. These shares are not convertible into common stock or any commodities. The Series I Preferred Stock was issued in February 2007. These shares were issued our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Perry Leopold, in February 2007 as an anti-takeover measure to insure that Mr. Leopold maintains control of the Company during periods when the Company’s stock may be severely undervalued and subject to hostile takeover in the open market.  As specified in the Certificate of Designation filed by the Company with the Delaware Secretary of State in February 2007, ”the outstanding shares of Series I Preferred Stock shall vote together with the shares of common stock of the Corporation as a single class and, regardless of the number of shares of Series I Preferred Stock outstanding and as long as at least one of such shares of Series I Preferred Stock is outstanding, shall represent eighty percent (80%) of all votes entitled to be voted at any annual or special meeting of shareholders of the Corporation or action by written consent of shareholders.  Each outstanding share of the Series I Preferred Stock shall represent its proportionate share of the 80% that is allocated to the outstanding shares of Series I Preferred Stock. The Series I preferred shares supersede any other shares that Mr. Leopold may own so that any additional securities that Mr. Leopold may own do not increase his 80% voting rights, and are therefore included within the 80%.

AMENDMENT TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF OUR AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK FROM 1,500,000,000 SHARES TO 7,500,000,000 SHARES AND TO DECREASE THE PAR VALUE OF OUR COMMON STOCK FROM $0.0001 PER SHARE TO $0.00001 PER SHARE
 
Our board of directors and the holders of a majority of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock have approved a Certificate of Amendment (“Amendment”) to our Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of our authorized shares of common stock from 1,500,000,000 shares to 7,500,000,000 shares. The increase in the number of our authorized shares of common stock will become effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. We will file the Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the increase in the number of our authorized shares of common stock approximately (but not less than) 20 days after this definitive information statement is mailed or made available to stockholders as of the Record Date.
 
The form of Amendment to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware is set forth as Appendix A to this information statement.
 
Outstanding Shares and Purpose of the Amendment
 
Our Certificate of Incorporation currently authorizes us to issue a maximum of 1,500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share.  As of the date of this information statement, we have 551,835,737 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, 4,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, each of which entitles its holder to five (5) votes on each matter submitted to the shareholders, and 100 shares of Series I Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, each of which entitles its holder to its proportionate share of eighty per cent (80%) of all votes entitled to be voted and which is allocated to the outstanding shares of Series I Preferred Stock.
 
The board of directors (the “Board”) believes that the increase in our authorized common stock is required to remain in compliance with the reserve requirements of our outstanding convertible notes.  It will also provide the Company greater flexibility with respect to the Company’s capital structure for purposes including additional equity financings and stock based acquisitions. Further we believe that the decrease in our par value from $0.0001 per share to $0.00001 per share will provide us will lower filing fees in jurisdictions where foreign qualifications base their fees on the par value of an applicant’s shares.

As of the date of this Information Statement, the Company has contractual obligations to maintain certain reserve levels for specific investments, which obligations we may not be able to meet if we do not undertake the Authorized Capital Increase.  This does not necessarily mean that any or all of shares of common stock will be issued, but rather that such shares are held aside in the event they are required to satisfy obligations under their debt structures. In addition, in the event potential investors indicate a willingness to provide additional equity or debt financing, the Company must have the ability to issue, or place in reserve, additional shares of common stock. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain any such financings. The net proceeds from any such financings would be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, including the further development of the Company’s properties.

Reserve Requirements

Most of our outstanding convertible notes agreements have provisions that require us to instruct our transfer agent to maintain a reserve sufficient to accommodate up to ten times the number of shares of Common Stock for which the principal amount of the notes are at any time convertible.  This does not necessarily mean that any or all of shares of common stock will be issued, but rather that such shares are held aside in the event they are required to satisfy obligations under the terms of our notes. It was the increase in these reserve requirements that caused us to increase our authorized recently, and due to the subsequent drop in our share price below $0.001, these reserve requirements must now be increased again to remain in compliance with our note agreements, which in turn requires an increase in our authorized share limit in order to accommodate the reserve increases.

The following table illustrates our current capital structure and reserve requirements as of the date of this information statement, and as of the effective date of the authorized share limit increase.

(1)The Reserved for Potential Issuance figure, both before and after the Increase in Authorized, is representative of the shares reserved for issuance that are the maximum possible expected to be required to satisfy obligations under certain note agreements as of the date of this information statement.

Effects of the Increase in Authorized Common Stock
 
The additional shares of common stock will have the same rights as the presently authorized shares of common stock, including the right to cast one vote per share of common stock. Although the authorization of additional shares will not, in itself, have any effect on the rights of any holder of our common stock, the future issuance of additional shares of common stock (other than by way of a stock split or dividend) would have the effect of diluting the voting rights and could have the effect of diluting earnings per share and book value per share of existing stockholders.
 
 
7
 
 
The board of directors expects to issue some or all of the additional shares of common stock authorized by the Amendment or held in reserve for investors for potential future issuance, as needed, for existing convertible note obligations as disclosed in the Company’s annual and quarterly reports. It is also possible that some of these additional shares could be used in the future for various other purposes without further stockholder approval, except as such approval may be required in particular cases by our charter documents, applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or other quotation system on which our securities may then be listed. These purposes may include: conversion of debt to equity, raising capital, providing equity incentives to employees, officers or directors, establishing strategic relationships with other companies, and expanding the Company’s business or product lines through the acquisition of other businesses or products.

We could also use the additional shares of common stock that will become available pursuant to the Amendment to oppose a hostile takeover attempt or to delay or prevent changes in control or management of the Company. Although the Board’s approval of the Amendment was not prompted by the threat of any hostile takeover attempt (nor is the Board currently aware of any such attempts directed at the Company), nevertheless, stockholders should be aware that the Amendment could facilitate future efforts by us to deter or prevent changes in control of the Company, including transactions in which stockholders of the Company might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current market prices.

It is possible that we may have to again increase our Authorized share limit in the future if the current amount is deemed insufficient.  The Company has a number of outstanding convertible promissory notes with variable pricing provisions that have matured or will mature over the course of Q4 2014 and Q1 2015. If these notes are not repaid in cash and subsequently are converted to equity, the following table shows a summary of the number of shares that may have to be issued at our current share price as of the Record Date, and the number of shares that may need to be issued if our share price decreases by as much as 75%.
