March ___, 2011
Dear Shareholder:
Camelot Corporation will hold a Special Meeting of Shareholders on
Thursday, April 28, 2011, beginning at 10:00 a.m. local time, at the offices of
counsel for Camelot Corporation at 730 West Randolph, Suite 600, Chicago,
Illinois 60661. We look forward to your attending either in person or by proxy.
The enclosed notice of meeting, the proxy statement and the proxy card from the
Board of Directors describe the proposal to be acted upon at the meeting.
This special meeting has been called for the purpose of asking holders of
common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Camelot Corporation, a Colorado
corporation ("Camelot Colorado" or the "Company"), to approve the adoption of a
proposed Agreement and Plan of Merger, to reincorporate Camelot Colorado in the
State of Nevada by merger with and into a Nevada corporation under the name
Camelot Corporation ("Camelot Nevada") which the Company formed for such purpose
(the "Migratory Merger"). The Board of Directors of Camelot Colorado (the
"Board") recommends that you vote FOR the adoption of the proposed Agreement and
Plan of Merger of the Company.
On March 7, 2011, the Board unanimously adopted resolutions, subject to
shareholder approval, the Agreement and Plan of Merger and recommended adoption
of the Agreement and Plan of Merger by its shareholders. Upon the effectiveness
of the Agreement and Plan of Merger:
1. Camelot Colorado will adopt the capital structure of Camelot Nevada, which
includes total authorized capital stock of 150,000,000 shares, of which
50,000,000 are common stock, with a par value of $0.01 per share (the "Camelot
Nevada Common Stock") and 100,000,000 shares are blank check preferred stock,
with a par value of $0.01 per share (the "Preferred Stock"). The Preferred Stock
may be issued from time to time in one or more participating, optional, or other
special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall
be stated in the resolutions adopted by Camelot Nevada's Board of Directors
providing for the issuance of such Preferred Stock or series thereof; and
2. The issued and outstanding shares of Camelot Colorado Common Stock will
automatically convert into the right to receive shares of Camelot Nevada Common
Stock at a ratio of one (1) share of Camelot Nevada Common Stock for each
twenty-five (25) shares of Common Stock of Camelot Colorado provided that
holders of Camelot Colorado Common Stock who would receive at least one share
but fewer than 100 shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock upon conversion shall
be rounded up so that they will receive 100 shares of Camelot Nevada Common
Stock (the "Conversion Ratio"). No fractional shares will be issued, and holders
who would receive less than one share upon conversion will not receive Camelot
Nevada Common Stock but may receive a cash distribution of One Dollar ($1.00)
upon submission of the Shareholder Transmittal Form Requesting Cash Payment for
Fractional Shares included as Exhibit E to this proxy material.
The Board believes that the proposed Migratory Merger will be beneficial to
Camelot Colorado and its shareholders because it will enhance Camelot Colorado's
ability to achieve its current business plan and purpose.
Please refer to the enclosed proxy statement for detailed information on
the proposal. If you have any further questions concerning the meeting or the
proposal, please feel free to contact Kristen Baracy, Company counsel, at
312-454-0015. Your vote is important. Whether or not you expect to attend the
meeting, your shares should be represented. Therefore, we urge you to complete,
sign, date and promptly return the enclosed proxy card.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, we would like to express our
appreciation for your continued interest in the Company.
Sincerely yours,
/s/Jeffrey Rochlin

To Be Held Thursday, April 28, 2011
To Shareholders:
A Special Meeting of Shareholders of Camelot Corporation will be held on
Thursday, April 28, 2011 at 10:00 a.m. local time, at the offices of counsel for
Camelot Corporation at 730 West Randolph, Suite 600, Chicago, Illinois. 60661,
in order to approve the adoption of a proposed Agreement and Plan of Merger, to
reincorporate Camelot Corporation, a Colorado corporation ("Camelot Colorado" or
the "Company") in the State of Nevada by merger with and into a Nevada
corporation with the name Camelot Corporation ("Camelot Nevada") which Camelot
Colorado formed for such purpose (the "Migratory Merger") in which Camelot
Colorado shareholders will receive shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock for
shares of common stock held in Camelot Colorado (the "Camelot Colorado Common
Stock.). Upon shareholder approval of the adoption of the Agreement and Plan of
Merger:
1. The capital structure of Camelot Nevada includes total authorized capital
stock of 150,000,000 shares, of which 50,000,000 are common stock, with a par
value of $0.01 per share (the "Camelot Nevada Common Stock") and 100,000,000
shares are blank check preferred stock, with a par value of $0.01 per share (the
"Preferred Stock"). The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one
or more participating, optional, or other special rights and qualifications,
limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated in the resolutions
adopted by Camelot Nevada's Board of Directors providing for the issuance of
such Preferred Stock or series thereof; and
2. The issued and outstanding shares of Camelot Colorado Common Stock will
automatically convert into the right to receive shares of Camelot Nevada Common
Stock at a ratio of one (1) share of Camelot Nevada Common Stock for each
twenty-five (25) shares of Camelot Colorado Common Stock held immediately prior
to the effectiveness of the Migratory Merger, provided, however, that holders of
Camelot Colorado Common Stock who would receive at least one share but fewer
than 100 shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock upon conversion shall be rounded
up so that they will receive 100 shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock (the
"Conversion Ratio"). No fractional shares will be issued, and holders who would
receive less than one share upon conversion will not receive Camelot Nevada
Common Stock but may receive a cash distribution of One Dollar ($1.00) upon
submission of the Shareholder Transmittal Form Requesting Cash Payment for

No other business may properly be brought before the meeting.
The Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on March 9, 2011 as

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THESE PROXY MATERIALS AND VOTING
WHY AM I RECEIVING THESE MATERIALS?
We are mailing this proxy statement, with the accompanying proxy card, to
you on or about March __, 2011, in connection with the solicitation of proxies
by the Board of Directors of Camelot Corporation (the "Company") for a special
meeting of shareholders to be held on Thursday, April 28, 2011, and any
adjournment or postponement of that meeting, beginning at 10:00 a.m. local time,
at the offices of counsel for Camelot Corporation at 730 West Randolph, Suite
600, Chicago, IL 60661. You are invited to attend the special meeting, and we
request that you vote on the proposal described in this proxy statement. You do
not need to attend the meeting in person to vote your shares. You may simply
complete, sign and return your proxy card in order to have your shares voted at
the meeting on your behalf.
WHAT AM I VOTING ON?
You are being asked to approve the adoption of the proposed Agreement and
Plan of Merger, attached hereto as Exhibit A, between Camelot Corporation, a
Colorado corporation ("Camelot Colorado" or the "Company") and Camelot
Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("Camelot Nevada"), which Camelot Colorado
formed for such purpose (the "Migratory Merger"). Upon the effectiveness of the
Agreement and Plan of Merger, the Migratory Merger would result in:
* A change of domicile state of the Company from the State of Colorado
to the State of Nevada;
* Your right to receive shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per
share, of Camelot Nevada at a ratio of one (1) share of Camelot Nevada
Common Stock for each twenty-five (25) shares of Camelot Colorado
Common Stock owned by you as of the Effective Date of the Migratory
Merger except that holders who would receive at least one share but
fewer than 100 shares upon conversion shall be rounded up so that they
will receive 100 shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock (the
"Conversion Ratio"). No fractional shares will be issued, and holders
who would receive less than one share upon conversion will not receive
Camelot Nevada Common Stock but may receive a cash distribution of One
Dollar ($1.00) upon submission of the Shareholder Transmittal Form
Requesting Cash Payment for Fractional Shares included as Exhibit E to
this proxy material.
* The person presently serving as our sole executive officer and
director serving in the same positions with Camelot Nevada;

consisting of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per
share, and 100,000,000 shares of "blank check" preferred stock, par
value $0.01 per share, with the right conferred upon the Board of
Directors to set the dividend, voting, conversion, liquidation, and
other rights as well as the qualifications, limitations, and
restrictions, with respect to the preferred stock as the Board of
Directors may determine from time to time; and
* The adoption of the Bylaws of Camelot Nevada under the laws of the
state of Nevada as the Bylaws of the Company in the form of Exhibit C
attached hereto.

WHY ARE WE RECOMMENDING THAT SHAREHOLDERS APPROVE THESE PROPOSALS?
The Board of Directors of Camelot Colorado (the "Board") believes that the
proposed Migratory Merger will be beneficial to Camelot Colorado and its
shareholders because it will enhance Camelot Colorado's ability to achieve its
current business plan and purpose.
Further, the State of Nevada is recognized as a desirable state in which to
do business because it has favorable corporate income tax treatment, nominal
annual fees, and stockholders are not public record. For these reasons, the
Board believes that it is in the Company's best interest if the Company
incorporates in the State of Nevada.
WHY ARE THESE PROPOSALS BEING SUBMITTED AT A SPECIAL MEETING INSTEAD OF AN
ANNUAL MEETING?
Our management and Board of Directors believe that the longer we wait to
implement the Migratory Merger we are losing out on potential growth. Per the
Bylaws of Camelot Colorado, the Board of Directors has the discretion when to
call meetings of shareholders. Due to the cost of facilitating such meeting, the
Board does not intend to call annual meetings at this time.
WHO CAN ATTEND AND VOTE AT THE MEETING?
Shareholders of record at the close of business on March 9, 2011, are
entitled to attend and vote at the meeting. Each share of our common stock is
entitled to one vote on all matters to be voted on at the meeting and may be
voted only if the record owner is present to vote or is represented by proxy.
The proxy card provided with this proxy statement indicates the number of shares
of common stock that you own and are entitled to vote at the meeting.
WHAT CONSTITUTES A QUORUM AT THE MEETING?
The presence at the meeting, in person or represented by proxy, of the
holders of a majority of the common stock outstanding on March 9, 2011, the
record date, will constitute a quorum for purposes of the meeting. On the record
date, 49,236,106 shares of Common Stock were outstanding. For purposes of
determining whether a quorum exists, proxies received but marked "abstain" and
so-called "broker non-votes" (described below) will be counted as present.
HOW DO I VOTE BY PROXY?
If you properly fill in your proxy card and we receive it in time to vote
at the meeting, your "proxy" (one of the individuals named on your proxy card)
will vote your shares as you have directed.
If you sign, date and return the proxy card but do not specify how your
shares are to be voted, then your proxy will vote your shares FOR approval of
the proposed Agreement and Plan of Merger described in this proxy statement.
CAN I CHANGE MY VOTE AFTER I RETURN MY PROXY CARD?
The vote of a proxy is final, binding, and not subject to challenge. Once
your vote is cast, it cannot be changed.
HOW ARE VOTES COUNTED?
The approval of the proposed Agreement and Plan of Merger, and thus the
resulting Migratory Merger, requires the favorable vote of a majority of the
votes cast on the matter. ABSTENTIONS AND BROKER NON-VOTES, WHICH ARE DESCRIBED
ABOVE, WILL HAVE NO EFFECT ON THE OUTCOME OF VOTING ON THESE MATTERS.
HOW IS THE COMPANY SOLICITING PROXIES?
We bear the cost of preparing, assembling and mailing the proxy material
relating to the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors for the
meeting.

PROPOSAL TO APPROVE A MIGRATORY MERGER
REASONS FOR MIGRATION TO NEVADA
Since entering into a Mineral Lease Agreement on June 11, 2010, the
business plan of the Company has been focused on the potential exploration of
certain mineral claims. The Board believes that the Migratory Merger will
benefit Camelot Colorado and its shareholders giving Camelot Colorado more
flexibility and simplicity in various corporate transactions and reduce costs of
doing business. The State of Nevada is recognized as a desirable state in which
to do business because it has favorable corporate income tax treatment, nominal
annual fees, and stockholders are not public record. Further, Nevada provides a
recognized body of corporate law that will facilitate corporate governance by
our officers and directors. For these reasons, the Board of Directors believes
that it is in Camelot Colorado's best interest if Camelot Colorado
reincorporates in the State of Nevada.
PRINCIPAL FEATURES OF PROPOSED MIGRATORY MERGER
The Migratory Merger will be effected by merging Camelot Colorado with and
into a newly formed Nevada corporation, Camelot Nevada. Camelot Nevada has not
engaged in any activities except in connection with the Migratory Merger. This
Proxy Statement summarizes the material terms of the proposed Migratory Merger,
as well as the Migratory Merger Agreement, Articles of Incorporation of Camelot
Nevada and Bylaws of Camelot Nevada. The full texts of the Migratory Merger
Agreement, the Articles of Incorporation, and Bylaws are attached as Exhibits A,
B, and C, respectively. Upon the Effective Date, Camelot Colorado will be merged
with and into Camelot Nevada. We will then be subject to Nevada General
Corporation Law and the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Nevada
entity will replace our current Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. These
changes may alter the rights of our stockholders.
CONVERSION RATIO
The issued and outstanding shares of Camelot Colorado common stock, with a
par value of $0.01 per share (the "Camelot Colorado Common Stock") will
automatically convert into the right to receive shares of common stock, par
value $0.01 per share, of Camelot Nevada (the "Camelot Nevada Common Stock") at
a ratio of one (1) share of Camelot Nevada Common Stock for each twenty-five
(25) shares of Camelot Colorado Common Stock held as of the Effective Date of
the Migratory Merger except that holders who would otherwise receive at least
one share but fewer than one hundred (100) shares of Camelot Colorado Nevada
Common Stock upon conversion will be rounded up to receive one hundred (100)
shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock (the "Conversion Ratio"). No fractional
shares will be issued, and holders who would receive less than one share upon
conversion will not receive Camelot Nevada Common Stock but may receive a cash
distribution of One Dollar ($1.00) upon submission of the Shareholder
Transmittal Form Requesting Cash Payment for Fractional Shares included as
Exhibit E to this proxy material. As of the Record Date, the number of shares
issued and outstanding was 49,236,106 shares of Common Stock. Upon completion of
the Migratory Merger, the number of issued and outstanding shares of Camelot
Nevada Common Stock will be approximately 2,006,794.
There are no issued or outstanding options, warrants, or other rights to
acquire any Camelot Colorado Common Stock.
CAPITAL STRUCTURE
The Company will adopt the capital structure of Camelot Nevada, which
includes total authorized capital stock of 150,000,000 shares of authorized
capital stock, consisting of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01
per share, and 100,000,000 shares of "blank check" preferred stock, par value
$0.01 per share, with the right conferred upon the Board to set the dividend,
voting, conversion, liquidation, and other rights as well as the qualifications,
limitations, and restrictions, with respect to the preferred stock as the Board
may determine from time to time.
In addition, following the Migratory Merger, there will be no holders of
odd lots (fewer than 100 shares) because holders of Camelot Colorado Common
Stock who would otherwise receive at least one share but fewer than one hundred
(100) shares upon conversion will be rounded up to receive one hundred (100)
4
shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock. Shareholders who own odd lots typically
may experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares and may have
greater difficulty in effecting sales.
EFFECTIVE DATE OF MIGRATORY MERGER
The Migratory Merger will become effective upon the filing of the requisite
merger documents in Nevada and Colorado, which filings are expected to occur as
promptly as practicable after the requisite shareholder approval is obtained of
the Migratory Merger Agreement (and thus the Migratory Merger). As a result of
the Migratory Merger, we will cease our corporate existence in the state of
Colorado. Beginning on the Effective Date, holders of Camelot Colorado Common
Stock, pre-Migratory Merger, will be deemed for all corporate purposes to be
holders of shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock, subject to the Conversion
Ratio.
The Migratory Merger, including the Conversion Ratio, will be effective in
the trading market upon approval of such corporate action by FINRA. We
anticipate such market effective date to correspond with the effective date of
the Migratory Merger upon the requisite filings with the states of Nevada and
Colorado.
NO CHANGE IN BUSINESS, MANAGEMENT, BOARD MEMBERS, ASSETS OR LIABILITIES
Upon completion of the Migratory Merger, the daily business operations of
the Company will continue as they are presently conducted. The individuals who
will serve as executive officers of the Company following the Migratory Merger
are those who currently serve as executive officers of the Company. The
Migratory Merger will not affect our daily business operations. The address of
our principal executive offices will remain at 17 Sutton Way, Washington Twp, NJ
07676.
CERTAIN RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH MIGRATORY MERGER
THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT IF THE MIGRATORY MERGER IS EFFECTED, THE
RESULTING COMPANY WILL ATTRACT ANY, OR SATISFY POTENTIAL ACQUISITION, TARGETS
AND THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT ANY TRANSACTION WILL BE EFFECTED.
THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE TOTAL MARKET CAPITALIZATION OF THE CAMELOT
NEVADA COMMON STOCK, AS DEFINED BELOW (THE AGGREGATE VALUE OF ALL ISSUED AND
OUTSTANDING CAMELOT NEVADA COMMON STOCK AT THE THEN MARKET PRICE), WILL BE EQUAL
TO OR GREATER THAN THE TOTAL MARKET CAPITALIZATION OF CAMELOT COLORADO BEFORE
THE MIGRATORY MERGER OR THAT THE PER SHARE MARKET PRICE OF THE CAMELOT NEVADA
COMMON STOCK WILL INCREASE IN PROPORTION TO THE REDUCTION IN THE NUMBER OF
SHARES OUTSTANDING AFTER THE MIGRATORY MERGER.
A DECLINE IN THE MARKET PRICE OF THE CAMELOT NEVADA COMMON STOCK MAY RESULT IN A
GREATER PERCENTAGE DECLINE THAN WOULD OCCUR IN THE ABSENCE OF THE CONVERSION OF
CAMELOT COLORADO COMMON STOCK AT THE CONVERSION RATIO, AND THE LIQUIDITY OF
CAMELOT NEVADA COMMON STOCK COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED FOLLOWING SUCH
CONVERSION.
IMPACT OF MIGRATORY MERGER
GENERAL
Following the Migratory Merger, the proportionate ownership interest of
shareholders will be affected. The following is a table which illustrates
generally how the Migratory Merger will affect the ownership interests of
shareholders. Actual share numbers may vary slightly from the table presented
below as a result of rounding calculations:

IF VOTED FOR, THE MIGRATORY MERGER WILL AFFECT ALL OF COMPANY'S STOCKHOLDERS AND
WILL AFFECT STOCKHOLDERS' PERCENTAGE OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN THE COMPANY AND
PROPORTIONATE VOTING POWER AS ILLUSTRATED ABOVE.
FRACTIONAL SHAREHOLDERS
You will not receive fractional shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock in
connection with the Migratory Merger. Shareholders who would receive at least
one share but fewer than 100 shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock will be
rounded up so that they will receive 100 shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock.
No fractional shares will be issued, and holders who would receive less than one
share will not receive Camelot Nevada Common Stock but may receive a cash
distribution of One Dollar ($1.00) upon submission of the Shareholder
Transmittal Form Requesting Cash Payment for Fractional Shares included as
Exhibit E to this proxy material.
REGISTERED AND BENEFICIAL STOCKHOLDERS
Upon effecting the Migratory Merger, we intend to treat shareholders
holding Camelot Nevada Common Stock in "street name", through a bank, broker or
other nominee, in the same manner as registered stockholders whose shares are
registered in their names. If you hold your shares with a bank, broker or
nominee and if you have questions in this regard, we encourage you to contact
your nominee.
EFFECT ON REGISTERED AND BENEFICIAL SHAREHOLDERS
Some of our registered shareholders hold all their shares in certificate
form. Following the effectiveness of the Migratory Merger, our transfer agent
will record post-conversion share ownership on its books and records. The
Company does not intend to automatically distribute certificates to shareholders
representing post-conversion share ownership. If you wish to obtain certificates
representing your share ownership in Camelot Nevada on a post-conversion basis,
you must contact our transfer agent, Empire Stock Transfer, Inc., 1859 Whitney
Mesa Drive, Henderson, NV 89014, 702.818.5898, for instructions for surrendering
certificates representing your Camelot Colorado stock and obtaining certificates
representing your post-conversion share ownership of Camelot Nevada.
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES CAUSED BY THE MIGRATORY MERGER
AUTHORIZED CAPITAL
On the Effective Date, Camelot Colorado will adopt the capital structure of
Camelot Nevada which includes total authorized capital stock of 150,000,000
shares, consisting of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per
share, and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share,
6
with the right conferred upon the Board to set the dividend, voting, conversion,
liquidation and other rights, as well as the qualifications, limitations or
restrictions thereof, as shall be stated in the resolutions adopted by Camelot
Nevada's Board of Directors providing for the issuance of such Preferred Stock
or series thereof. The Articles of Incorporation of Camelot Nevada are attached
hereto as Exhibit B. On the record date of this Proxy Statement, Camelot
Colorado had 150,000,000 shares of authorized Common Stock of which 49,236,106
shares were issued and outstanding. Authorized but unissued shares of Camelot
Nevada will be available for issuance, and Camelot Nevada may issue such shares
in the future. If Camelot Nevada issues additional shares, the ownership
interest of Camelot Nevada's stockholders will be diluted.
Further, the authorized shares of common stock in excess of those issued or
reserved for issuance and the newly authorized shares of preferred stock, will
be available for issuance at such times and for such corporate purposes as our
Board of Directors may deem advisable without further action by our
stockholders, except as may be required by applicable laws or the rules of any
stock exchange or national securities association trading system on which the
securities may be listed or traded. This issuance could result in a significant
dilution of the voting rights and the stockholders' equity of then-existing
stockholders. The holders of Camelot Nevada Common Stock have no preemptive
right to purchase any of the additional shares of common stock when issued.
CHANGE IN CHARTER AND BY-LAWS
We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado and Camelot
Nevada is incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company's
corporate affairs are currently governed by Colorado corporate law and our
Articles of Incorporation and By-laws which were created pursuant to Colorado
law. On the Effective Date, issues of corporate governance and control will be
controlled by Nevada law and Camelot Nevada's Articles of Incorporation and
Bylaws, which were created under Nevada law.
There are certain significant differences between Colorado corporate law
and Nevada corporate law. Stockholders should refer to the Nevada General
Corporation Law and the Colorado Business Corporation Act to understand how
these laws apply to Camelot Nevada and Camelot Colorado, respectively. For
example, Nevada law provides that, unless the articles of incorporation provide
otherwise, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the
stockholders may be taken without a meeting if the holders of outstanding stock
having at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize
or take such action at a meeting consent to the action in writing. Colorado law
requires an action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the
shareholders may be taken without a meeting by written action signed, or
consented to by authenticated electronic communication, by all of the
shareholders entitled to vote on that action.
POTENTIAL ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECT
The number of authorized shares available for issuance could adversely
affect the ability of third parties to takeover or effect a change in control of
Camelot Nevada by, for example, permitting issuances that would dilute the stock
ownership of a person seeking to effect change in the composition of the Camelot
Nevada's Board of Directors or contemplating a tender offer or other transaction
for the combination of Camelot Nevada with another company. Although the
proportion of unissued authorized shares to issued shares could, under certain
circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect, neither the adoption of the
Conversion Ratio or the Preferred Stock is in response to any effort of which
Camelot Colorado is aware to accumulate its shares or shares of Camelot Nevada
or obtain control of Camelot Colorado or Camelot Nevada, nor is it part of a
plan by management to recommend a series of similar amendments to the Board and
stockholders.
ACCOUNTING MATTERS
The Migratory Merger will have no effect on the par value of Common Stock.
As a result, as of the Effective Date, the stated capital attributable to
Camelot Nevada Common Stock on the balance sheet as compared to Camelot Colorado
Common Stock will be lowered in proportion to the Conversion Ratio, and the
additional paid-in capital attributable to Camelot Nevada Common Stock on the
balance sheet as compared to Camelot Colorado Common Stock will be increased by
the amount by which the stated capital is reduced. The per-share net income or
loss and net book value of Camelot Colorado Common Stock will be restated
because there will be fewer shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock outstanding.
7
PROCEDURE FOR EFFECTING THE MIGRATORY MERGER
As soon as practicable after the requisite shareholder approval of the
Migratory Merger Agreement and (thus the Migratory Merger), Camelot Colorado
will promptly cause a Statement of Merger to be filed with the Office of the
Secretary of State of Colorado and Articles of Merger to be filed with the
Secretary of State of Nevada (collectively both are "Merger Certificates"). The
Migratory Merger will become effective on the date of filing of the Merger
Certificates or on such later date as determined by the Board, which is referred
to as the "Effective Date." Beginning on the Effective Date, shares of Camelot
Colorado Common Stock, pre-Migratory Merger, will be deemed for all corporate
purposes, to evidence shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock, subject to the
Conversion Ratio.
The Migratory Merger, including the Conversion Ratio, will be effective in
the trading market upon approval of such corporate action by FINRA. We
anticipate such market effective date to correspond with the effective date of
the Migratory Merger upon the requisite filings with the states of Nevada and
Colorado.
DISSENTERS' RIGHT OF APPRAISAL
Common stockholders of Camelot Colorado who follow the appropriate
procedures are entitled to dissent from the consummation of the Migratory Merger
and receive payment of the fair value of their shares under Sections 7-113-101
through 7-113-3-2 of the Colorado Revised Statutes.
The following information is intended as a brief summary of the material
provisions of the statutory procedures you must follow in order to perfect your
appraisal rights. You are urged to read the full text of the Colorado
dissenters' rights statute, which is reprinted in its entirety and attached as
Exhibit D to this document. A person having a beneficial interest in shares of
our common stock that are held of record in the name of another person, such as
a bank, broker or other nominee, must act promptly to cause the record holder to
follow the steps summarized below, properly and in a timely manner, if such
person wishes to perfect any dissenters' rights such person may have.
This discussion and Exhibit D should be reviewed carefully by you if you
wish to exercise statutory dissenters' rights or wish to preserve the right to
do so, because failure to strictly comply with any of the procedural
requirements of the Colorado dissenters' rights statute may result in a
termination or waiver of dissenters' rights under the Colorado dissenters'
rights statute.
Under the Colorado dissenters' rights statute, you have the right to
dissent from the Migratory Merger and demand payment of the fair value of your
shares of Camelot Colorado Common Stock. If you elect to dissent, you must (a)
file with us a written notice of dissent stating that you intend to demand
payment for your shares of Camelot Colorado Common Stock if the Migratory Merger
is consummated; and (b) not vote in favor of the Migratory Merger. Such written
notice of dissent must be filed with us no later than TUESDAY APRIL 26, 2011. If
you fail to comply with this notice requirement, you will not be entitled to
dissenters' rights. The "fair value" of the shares as used in the Colorado
dissenters' rights statute is the value of the shares immediately before the
Effective Date of the proposed Migratory Merger, excluding any appreciation or
depreciation in anticipation of the Migratory Merger except to the extent that
exclusion would be inequitable.
After the proposed action of the Migratory Merger has been approved, we
will give written notice of the Effective Date of the Migratory Merger to each
shareholder who filed a written notice of dissent and did not vote in favor of
the Migratory Merger. The notice will also state the address to which demand for
payment must be sent and the address to which share certificates shall be
deposited, among other information. Within the thirty (30) days following the
date notice is delivered, the dissenting shareholder must make a written demand
on us for payment of the fair value of his or her shares and deposit his or her
share certificates in accordance with the notice.
Upon the Effective Date of the Migratory Merger or upon receipt of a valid
demand for payment, whichever is later, we will pay to each dissenter who
complied with the required procedures, the amount we estimate to be the fair
value of the dissenters' shares, plus accrued interest. Additionally, we will
8
mail to each dissenting shareholder a balance sheet and statement of income as
of the end of its most recent fiscal year, together with the latest available
interim financial statements, a statement of the Company's estimate of the fair
value of the shares, an explanation of how the interest was calculated, a
statement of the dissenters' right to demand payment of fair value under
Colorado law, and a copy of the relevant provisions of Colorado law.
A dissenting shareholder, within thirty (30) days following receipt of
payment for the shares, may send us a notice containing such shareholder's own
estimate of fair value and accrued interest, and demand payment for that amount
less the amount received pursuant to our payment of fair value to such
shareholder.
If a demand for payment remains unresolved, we may petition the court to
determine fair value and accrued interest. If we fail to commence an action
within sixty (60) days following the receipt of the shareholder's demand, we
will pay to the shareholder the amount demanded by the shareholder in the
shareholder's notice containing the shareholder's estimate of fair value and
accrued interest.
If you wish to seek dissenters' rights, you are urged to review the
applicable Colorado statutes attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit D.
MISCELLANEOUS
We will pay all of the costs of the Migratory Merger in Nevada, including
the costs of preparing and distributing this Proxy Statement. We may also pay
brokerage firms and other custodians for their reasonable expenses for
forwarding information materials to the beneficial owners of our common stock.
We do not anticipate contracting for other services in connection with the
Migratory Merger.
CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MIGRATORY MERGER
The following is a discussion of certain federal income tax consequences to
holders of our common stock who receive shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock in
exchange for their Camelot Colorado Common Stock (i.e. the Conversion Ratio) as
a result of the Migratory Merger. The discussion is based on the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"), and laws, regulations, rulings and
decisions in effect as of the date of this Proxy Statement, all of which are
subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, and to differing
interpretations. No state, local or foreign tax consequences are addressed
herein.
This discussion is for general information only and does not purport to be
a complete discussion or analysis of all potential tax consequences that may
apply to a shareholder. In view of the varying nature of such tax consequences,
shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors as to the specific tax
consequences to them of the Migratory Merger, including the applicability of
federal, state, local or foreign tax laws.
We believe that, for federal income tax purposes, no gain or loss will be
recognized by our Company or Camelot Nevada, or our shareholders who receive
Camelot Nevada Common Stock for their shares of our Camelot Colorado Common
Stock in connection with the Conversion Ratio. The adjusted tax basis of each
whole share of Camelot Nevada Common Stock received by a shareholder of our
Company as a result of the Conversion Ratio will be the same as the
shareholder's aggregate adjusted tax basis in the shares of our common stock
converted into such shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock. A shareholder who
holds Camelot Colorado Common Stock will include in his holding period for the
Camelot Nevada Common Stock that he receives as a result of the Migratory
Merger, his holding period for Camelot Colorado Common Stock.
Because of the complexity of the capital gains and loss provisions of the
Code and the uniqueness of each individual's capital gain or loss situation,
shareholders contemplating exercising statutory dissenters' rights should
consult their own tax advisors regarding the federal income tax consequences of
exercising such rights. Additionally, state, local or foreign income tax
consequences to shareholders may vary from the federal income tax consequences
described above. Further, our view regarding the tax consequences of the
Conversion Ratio is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or the courts.
ACCORDINGLY, SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE
CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF THE CONVERSION OF COMMON STOCK AT THE CONVERSION RATIO
UNDER ALL APPLICABLE TAX LAWS.

VOTING SECURITIES
OWNERS OF MORE THAN 5% OF OUR COMMON STOCK
As of March 9, 2011 (the "Record Date"), there were 49,236,106 shares of
our common stock issued and outstanding. On that date, to our knowledge there
was one shareholder who owned beneficially more than 5% of our common stock. The
table below contains information, as of that date (except as noted below),
regarding the beneficial ownership of that person. Unless otherwise indicated,
we believe that the person listed below has sole voting and investment power
with respect to all the shares of common stock indicated.

COMMON STOCK OWNED BY COMPANY DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
The following information is furnished as of March 9, 2011, with respect to
common stock beneficially owned by: (1) our directors (including our chief
executive officer); (2) our four most highly compensated executive officers
other than the chief executive officer; and (3) all directors and executive

stock by our principal stockholders and management is based upon information
furnished by each person using "beneficial ownership" concepts under the rules
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these rules, a person is deemed
to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting
power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or
investment power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the
security. Under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, more than one
person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a
person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities, as to which he or
she may not have any pecuniary beneficial interest.

INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN OR IN OPPOSITION TO MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON.
No director, executive officer, associate of any director or executive
officer or any other person has any substantial interest, direct or indirect, by
security holdings or otherwise, in the Migratory Merger proposal which is not
shared by all other holders of Camelot Colorado Common Stock. See "Voting
Securities And Principal Holders Thereof."
FUTURE SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS
You may request inclusion in the Company's proxy statement for shareholder
meetings certain proposals for action which you intend to introduce at such
meeting. Shareholder proposals must be presented at a reasonable time before the
proxy materials for the next meeting are sent to shareholders. The submission of
a proposal does not guarantee its inclusion in the proxy statement and is
subject to limitations under the federal securities laws. Camelot Colorado is
not required to hold regular meetings of shareholders and in order to minimize
its costs, does not intend to hold meetings of the shareholders unless so
required by applicable law, regulatory policy, or if otherwise deemed advisable
by Camelot Colorado's management. Therefore, it is not practicable to specify a
date by which proposals must be received in order to be incorporated in an
upcoming proxy statement for a meeting of shareholders.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company's audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended April
30, 2010 appear in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U. S.
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on July 29, 2010. The Company's
interim financial statements for the quarters ended July 31, 2010, October 31,

EXHIBIT A
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (hereinafter called this "AGREEMENT"),
dated as of March 7, 2011, is entered into between Camelot Corporation, a Nevada
corporation ("Camelot Nevada") and Camelot Corporation, a Colorado corporation
(the "Company").
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the board of directors of each of Camelot Nevada and the Company
deem it advisable, upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein stated,
that the Company be merged with and into Camelot Nevada, and that Camelot Nevada
be the surviving corporation (the "MIGRATORY MERGER"); and WHEREAS, the Company
will submit this Agreement for approval by separate vote of the holders of
shares of common stock, $0.01 par value, of the Company ("COMMON STOCK") at a
special meeting.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the agreements of
the parties hereto contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
THE MIGRATORY MERGER; EFFECTIVE TIME
1.1. THE MIGRATORY MERGER. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.2), the
Company shall be merged with and into Camelot Nevada, whereupon the separate
existence of the Company shall cease. Camelot Nevada shall be the surviving
corporation (sometimes hereinafter referred to as the "SURVIVING CORPORATION")
in the Migratory Merger and shall continue to be governed by the laws of the
State of Nevada. The Migratory Merger shall have the effects specified in the
Colorado Business Corporation Act of the State of Colorado as amended (the
"CBCA") and in the Nevada Revised Statutes as amended (the "NRS") and the
Surviving Corporation shall succeed, without other transfer, to all of the
assets and property (whether real, personal or mixed), rights, privileges,
franchises, immunities and powers of the Company, and shall assume and be
subject to all of the duties, liabilities, obligations and restrictions of every
kind and description of the Company, including, without limitation, all
outstanding indebtedness of the Company.
1.2. EFFECTIVE TIME. Provided that the condition set forth in Section 5.1
has been fulfilled or waived in accordance with this Agreement and that this
Agreement has not been terminated or abandoned pursuant to Section 6.1, on the
date of the closing of the Migratory Merger, the Company and Camelot Nevada
shall cause Articles of Merger to be executed and filed with the Secretary of
State of the State of Nevada (the "NEVADA ARTICLES OF Merger") and shall cause a
Statement of Merger to be executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the
State of Colorado (the "COLORADO STATEMENT OF MERGER"). The Migratory Merger
shall become effective upon the date and time specified in the Nevada Articles
of Merger and the Colorado Statement of Merger (the "EFFECTIVE TIME").
ARTICLE II
CHARTER AND BYLAWS OF THE SURVIVING CORPORATION
2.1. ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION. The Articles of Incorporation of Camelot
Nevada in effect at the Effective Time shall be the Articles of Incorporation of
the Surviving Corporation, until amended in accordance with the provisions
provided therein or applicable law.
2.2. THE BYLAWS. The bylaws of Camelot Nevada in effect at the Effective
Time shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, until amended in
accordance with the provisions provided therein or applicable law.
ARTICLE III
OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF THE SURVIVING CORPORATION
3.1. OFFICERS. The officers of the Company at the Effective Time shall,
from and after the Effective Time, be the officers of the Surviving Corporation,
until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or
until their earlier death, resignation or removal.
3.2. DIRECTORS. The directors of the Company at the Effective Time shall,
from and after the Effective Time, be the directors of the Surviving
Corporation, until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and
qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal.
ARTICLE IV
EFFECT OF MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK
4.1. EFFECT OF MERGER ON CAPITAL STOCK. At the Effective Time, as a result
of the Migratory Merger and without any action on the part of the Company,
Camelot Nevada or the shareholders of the Company:
(a) Each share of common stock (other than shares ("DISSENTING SHARES")
that are owned by shareholders ("DISSENTING SHAREHOLDERS") exercising
dissenters' rights pursuant to Sections 7-113-101 through 7-113-302 of the CRS),
issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be
converted at a ratio of one (1) share of Camelot Nevada Common Stock, par value
$0.01, ("CAMELOT NEVADA COMMON STOCK"), for twenty-five (25) shares of Company
Common Stock, par value $0.01, provided that holders who would receive at least
one share but fewer than 100 shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock shall be
rounded up so that they will receive 100 shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock,
with the same rights, powers and privileges as the shares so converted and all
shares of Company Common Stock shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to
exist. No fractional shares will be issued, and holders who would receive less
than one share will not receive Camelot Nevada Common Stock but may receive a
cash distribution of One Dollar ($1.00) upon submission of the Shareholder
Transmittal Form Requesting Cash Payment for Fractional Shares.
(b) Each share of Camelot Nevada common stock owned by the Company shall no
longer be outstanding and shall be cancelled and retired and shall cease to
exist.
4.2. CERTIFICATES. At and after the Effective Time, all of the outstanding
certificates which immediately prior thereto represented shares of common stock
(other than Dissenting Shares) of the Company shall be deemed for all purposes
to evidence ownership of and to represent the shares of the respective Camelot
Nevada Common Stock, into which the shares of common stock of the Company
represented by such certificates have been converted as herein provided and
shall be so registered on the books and records of the Surviving Corporation or
its transfer agent. The registered owner of any such outstanding certificate
shall be entitled to exercise any voting and other rights with respect to, and
to receive any dividends and other distributions upon, the shares of Camelot
Nevada Common Stock. Post-conversion share ownership shall be recorded on the
books and records of Camelot Nevada's transfer agent. Holders who wish to obtain
certificates representing Camelot Nevada post-conversion shares may surrender
certificates representing Company shares to the Company's transfer agent and
request instructions for exchange of such certificates.
4.3 DISSENTERS' RIGHTS. No Dissenting Shareholder shall be entitled to
shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock under this Article IV unless and until the
holder thereof shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn
2
or lost such holder's right to dissent from the Migratory Merger under the CRS,
and any Dissenting Shareholder shall be entitled to receive only the payment
provided by Sections 7-113-101 through 7-113-302 with respect to Dissenting
Shares owned by such Dissenting Shareholder. If any person or entity who
otherwise would be deemed a Dissenting Shareholder shall have failed to properly
perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost the right to dissent with
respect to any shares which would be Dissenting Shares but for that failure to
perfect or withdrawal or loss of the right to dissent, such Dissenting Shares
shall thereupon be treated as though such Dissenting Shares had been converted
into shares of Camelot Nevada Common Stock pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof.
ARTICLE V
CONDITION
5.1. CONDITION TO EACH PARTY'S OBLIGATION TO EFFECT THE MIGRATORY MERGER.
The respective obligation of each party hereto to effect the Migratory Merger is

stock pursuant to the CRS and the Articles of Incorporation of the Company.
ARTICLE VI
TERMINATION
6.1. TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated, and the Migratory
Merger may be abandoned, at any time prior to the Effective Time, whether before
or after approval of this Agreement by the shareholders of the Company, if the
board of directors of the Company determines for any reason, in its sole
judgment and discretion, that the consummation of the Migratory Merger would be
inadvisable or not in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. In
the event of the termination and abandonment of this Agreement, this Agreement
shall become null and void and have no effect, without any liability on the part
of either the Company or Camelot Nevada or any of their respective shareholders,
directors or officers.
ARTICLE VII
MISCELLANEOUS AND GENERAL
7.1. MODIFICATION OR AMENDMENT. Subject to the provisions of applicable
law, at any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto may modify or
amend this Agreement; provided, however, that an amendment made subsequent to
the approval of this Agreement by the holders of common stock shall not (i)
alter or change the amount or kind of shares and/or rights to be received in
exchange for or on conversion of all or any of the shares or any class or series
thereof of such corporation, (ii) alter or change any provision of the Articles
of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation to be effected by the Migratory
Merger, or (iii) alter or change any of the terms or conditions of this
Agreement it such alteration or change would adversely affect the holders of any
class or series of capital stock of any of the parties hereto.
7.2. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each such counterpart being deemed to be an original instrument,
and all such counterparts shall together constitute the same agreement.
7.3. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE IN AND IN ALL
RESPECTS SHALL BE INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND GOVERNED BY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEVADA WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES

3
7.4. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and
supercedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and
warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the
subject matter hereof.
7.5. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is not intended to confer
upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.
7.6. SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed
severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any
provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or any
circumstance, is determined by any court or other authority of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable
provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be
valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable
provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such
provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such
invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability
affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application
thereof, in any other jurisdiction.
7.7. HEADINGS. The headings therein are for convenience of reference only,
do not constitute part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or
otherwise affect any of the provisions hereof.

7-113-208 and demand payment of the fair value of the shares and interest due,
if:

offered under section 7-113-208 is less than the fair value of the shares or
that the interest due was incorrectly calculated;
(b) The corporation fails to make payment under section 7-113-206 within sixty
days after the date set by the corporation by which the corporation must receive
the payment demand; or

PART 3 JUDICIAL APPRAISAL OF SHARES
7-113-301. COURT ACTION.
(1) If a demand for payment under section 7-113-209 remains unresolved, the
corporation may, within sixty days after receiving the payment demand, commence
a proceeding and petition the court to determine the fair value of the shares
and accrued interest. If the corporation does not commence the proceeding within
the sixty-day period, it shall pay to each dissenter whose demand remains
unresolved the amount demanded.
(2) The corporation shall commence the proceeding described in subsection (1) of
this section in the district court for the county in this state in which the
street address of the corporation's principal office is located, or, if the
corporation has no principal office in this state, in the district court for the
county in which the street address of its registered agent is located, or, if
the corporation has no registered agent, in the district court for the city and
county of Denver. If the corporation is a foreign corporation without a
registered agent, it shall commence the proceeding in the county in which the
domestic corporation merged into, or whose shares were acquired by, the foreign
corporation would have commenced the action if that corporation were subject to
the first sentence of this subsection (2).
(3) The corporation shall make all dissenters, whether or not residents of this
state, whose demands remain unresolved parties to the proceeding commenced under
subsection (2) of this section as in an action against their shares, and all
parties shall be served with a copy of the petition. Service on each dissenter
shall be by registered or certified mail, to the address stated in such
dissenter's payment demand, or if no such address is stated in the payment
demand, at the address shown on the corporation's current record of shareholders
for the record shareholder holding the dissenter's shares, or as provided by
law.
(4) The jurisdiction of the court in which the proceeding is commenced under
subsection (2) of this section is plenary and exclusive. The court may appoint
one or more persons as appraisers to receive evidence and recommend a decision
on the question of fair value. The appraisers have the powers described in the
order appointing them, or in any amendment to such order. The parties to the
proceeding are entitled to the same discovery rights as parties in other civil
proceedings.
(5) Each dissenter made a party to the proceeding commenced under subsection (2)
of this section is entitled to judgment for the amount, if any, by which the
court finds the fair value of the dissenter's shares, plus interest, exceeds the
amount paid by the corporation, or for the fair value, plus interest, of the
dissenter's shares for which the corporation elected to withhold payment under
section 7-113-208.
7-113-302. COURT COSTS AND COUNSEL FEES.
(1) The court in an appraisal proceeding commenced under section 7-113-301 shall
determine all costs of the proceeding, including the reasonable compensation and
expenses of appraisers appointed by the court. The court shall assess the costs
against the corporation; except that the court may assess costs against all or
some of the dissenters, in amounts the court finds equitable, to the extent the
court finds the dissenters acted arbitrarily, vexatiously, or not in good faith
in demanding payment under section 7-113-209.
(2) The court may also assess the fees and expenses of counsel and experts for
the respective parties, in amounts the court finds equitable:
(a) Against the corporation and in favor of any dissenters if the court finds
the corporation did not substantially comply with part 2 of this article; or
(b) Against either the corporation or one or more dissenters, in favor of any
other party, if the court finds that the party against whom the fees and
expenses are assessed acted arbitrarily, vexatiously, or not in good faith with
respect to the rights provided by this article.
(3) If the court finds that the services of counsel for any dissenter were of
substantial benefit to other dissenters similarly situated, and that the fees
for those services should not be assessed against the corporation, the court may
award to said counsel reasonable fees to be paid out of the amounts awarded to
the dissenters who were benefited.

Pursuant to the conversion ratio to be used in connection with the merger of
Camelot Colorado into Camelot Nevada, a Camelot Colorado shareholder will
receive one (1) share of Camelot Nevada Common Stock for each twenty-five (25)

receive Camelot Nevada Common Stock but may receive a cash distribution of One
Dollar ($1.00) upon submission of this Shareholder Transmittal Form Requesting

cash payment of One Dollar ($1.00) for the shares of Camelot Colorado Common
Stock owned by the undersigned which will be cancelled following the
effectiveness of the merger of Camelot Colorado into Camelot Nevada.
In consideration for the cash payment paid by Camelot Colorado herein, the
undersigned hereby forever releases and discharges Camelot Colorado and Camelot
Nevada, their successors and assigns, of and from any and all actions, suits,
debts, claims and demands whatsoever, whether known or unknown, direct or
indirect, mature or contingent, accrued or unaccrued, in law or in equity, which
the undersigned ever had or now has against Camelot Colorado or Camelot Nevada
for or by reason of any matter whatsoever.
The undersigned hereby submits this transmittal form and requests payment of
$1.00 to be mailed to the undersigned pursuant to the instructions below:
