ABOUT THE INFORMATION STATEMENT
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE INFORMATION

Specifically, on July 17, 2013, holders
of a majority of our Common Stock voted to approve the corporate matter outlined in this Information Statement, consisting of approving
a 25-for-1 reverse split of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, such that each Twenty Five (25) shares of Common
Stock, $0.001 par value, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date (the "Old Common Stock") shall
be recombined, reclassified and changed into One (1) share of the corporation's Common Stock, $0.001 par value (the "New Common
Stock"), (the "Reverse Stock Split").
WHO IS ENTITLED TO NOTICE?
All holders of shares of Common Stock
on the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to notice of each matter voted upon by the principal stockholder pursuant
to the written consent of the principal stockholder. Specifically, the holder of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock, which constitute a majority of all shares eligible to vote, has
voted in favor of the Proposal listed in this notice. Under
Nevada corporate law Section NRS 78.320, all the activities requiring stockholder approval may be taken by obtaining the written
consent and approval of more than a majority (greater than 50.00%) of the holders of voting stock in lieu of a meeting of the stockholders.
Because the holders of more than fifty
percent, i.e., 54%, of the collective voting rights of the Common Stock, voted in favor of the Proposal, no action by the minority

Notes:
(1) Based on 135,281,135 of our Common Stock issued and outstanding
as of August 20, 2013. Under Rule 13d-3, certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for
example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially
owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of
the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding
is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition
rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the
person's actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on August 20,
2013.
WHAT IS THE IS THE RECOMMENDATION
OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS?
On July 17, 2013, the Board of Directors
unanimously adopted a resolution approving the Proposal. The Board of Directors recommends adoption of the Proposal.
WHAT VOTE IS REQUIRED TO APPROVE THE
PROPOSAL?
A vote of the majority of the voting
capital stock is required to approve the Proposal. As a result, a vote to approve the Proposal by a majority of the aggregate voting
rights held by the holders of the Common Stock is sufficient to approve the Proposal. In this instance, 54% of the outstanding
shares of voting stock have approved the Proposal.
PRINCIPAL OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL

information concerning the number of shares of our capital stock owned beneficially as of August 5, 2013 by: (i) each person (including

SIGNIFICANT EMPLOYEES
We have no significant employees, other

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS
The Board members serve for the latter

INVOLVEMENT IN CERTAIN LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
None of our directors or executive officers

(i) involved in any bankruptcy petition
filed by or against such person or any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer, either at the

any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspending or vacated, of any self-regulatory any registered entity of the Commodity

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
We have determined that our board of
directors currently has no members who qualify as "independent" as the term is used in Item 407 of Regulation S-K as
promulgated by the SEC and as that term is defined under NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15).
BOARD MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES, ANNUAL
MEETING ATTENDANCE
Although we intend to establish an audit
committee and compensation committee, our board of directors has not adopted any committees to the board of directors. Our board
of directors held no formal meeting during the most recently completed fiscal year. All other proceedings of the board of directors
were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and
filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors.
Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are,
according to the corporate laws of the State of Nevada and our bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting
of the directors duly called and held.
At each annual meeting of shareholders,
directors will be elected by the holders of common stock to succeed those directors whose terms are expiring. Directors will be
elected annually and will serve until successors are duly elected and qualified or until a director's earlier death, resignation
or removal. Our bylaws provide that the authorized number of directors may be
changed by action of the majority of the board of directors
or by a vote of the shareholders of our Company. Vacancies in our board of directors may be filled by a majority vote of the board
of directors with such newly appointed director to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders, unless sooner removed or
replaced. We currently do not have a policy regarding the attendance of board members at the annual meeting of shareholders.
CODE OF ETHICS
Given our limited operations, we have
not adopted a Code of Ethics, that applies to our officers, directors and employees in accordance with applicable federal securities
laws. We expect that our Board of Directors will adopt a Code of Ethics in the near future.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The table below summarizes the total
compensation earned by or paid to our principal executive officer, our principal financial officer and each of our two other executive
officers other than our principal executive officer and principal financial officer for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2012. The
amounts represented in the "Options Award" column reflect the stock compensation expense recorded pursuant to the ASC
Topic 718 and does not necessarily equate
to the income that will ultimately be realized by the named
executive for such awards.

We do not have a plan pursuant to which
our directors are compensated and directors currently do not receive cash compensation for their services on the Board of Directors
although they do receive stock as determined by the full board of directors with each director abstaining from any such vote involving
himself or a member of his immediate family.
Our non-employee director is currently
compensated with the issuance of stock options, which generally become exercisable upon the date of grant, and which generally
expire on the earlier of ten years from the date of grant or up to three years after the date that the optionee ceases to serve
as a director. Non-employee directors will be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses associated with attending to our business.
EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS
We have no employment contracts, termination
of employment or change-in-control arrangements with any of our executive officers or other employees.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

of our Company consists of One Hundred Ninety Eight Million (198,000,000) shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 and Two Million
(2,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock. As of August 20, 2013, 4,480,000 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding. No
Common Shares have been issued since August 5, 2013. The following description is a summary of the capital stock of our Company
and contains the material terms of our voting capital stock. Additional information can be found in our Certificate of Incorporation
and our Bylaws.
COMMON STOCK
On August 20, 2013 (the "Record
Date"), there were 135,281,135 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder
to one (1) vote on each matter submitted to a vote of our stockholders, including the election of Directors. There is no cumulative

ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF PROVISIONS
OF THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION, BYLAWS AND NEVADA LAW
AUTHORIZED AND UNISSUED STOCK
The authorized but unissued shares of
our Common Stock are available for future issuance without the approval of our stockholders. These additional shares may be utilized
for a variety of corporate purposes including but not limited to future public or direct offerings to raise additional capital,
corporate acquisitions and employee incentive plans. The issuance of such shares may also be used to deter a potential takeover
of the Company that may otherwise
be beneficial to our stockholders by diluting the shares
held by a potential suitor or issuing shares to a stockholder that will vote in accordance with the desires of the Board. A takeover
may be beneficial to stockholders because, among other reasons, a potential suitor may offer stockholders a premium for their shares
of stock compared to the then-existing market price.
NEVADA ANTI-TAKEOVER LAWS
Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS")
Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 provide state regulation over the acquisition of a controlling interest in certain Nevada corporations
unless the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation provide that the provisions of these sections do not apply. Our
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws do not state that these provisions do not apply.
The statute creates a number of restrictions
on the ability of a person or entity to acquire control of a Nevada company by setting down certain rules of conduct and voting
restrictions in any acquisition attempt, among other things.
The restrictions on the acquisition of controlling interests
contained in NRS Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 apply only to a Nevada corporation that:
(a) has 200 stockholders of record (at
least 100 of whom have addresses in
the State of Nevada appearing on the
stock ledgers of the corporation); and
(b) does business in the State of Nevada,
either directly or through an
affiliated corporation.
Currently, we do not have 200 stockholders
of record, nor do we have 100 stockholders of record with addresses in the State of Nevada. Furthermore, we do not conduct business
in the State of Nevada and we do not intend to conduct business in the State of Nevada in the near future. Accordingly, the anti-takeover
provisions contained in NRS Sections 78.378 to 78.3793 do not apply to us, and are not likely to apply to us in the foreseeable
future.
TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR
Quicksilver Stock Transfer is the transfer
agent and registrar of our Common Stock. Their address is 6623 South Las Vegas Blvd., Suite 255, Las Vegas, NV, 89119. and their
telephone number is 386-206-1133.
INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN OPPOSITION
TO MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON
(a) No officer or Director of the Company
has any substantial interest in
the matters to be acted upon, other
than his role as an officer or Director of the Company.
(b) No Director in good standing with
the Company has informed the Company
that he intends to oppose the actions to be taken
by the Company as set forth in this Information Statement.
PROPOSAL 1 - REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF
THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK
The Company's Board proposes to effectuate
a 25- for - 1 reverse split of the total issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company as follows:
"There shall be a 25- for-1 Reverse Split of the issued
and outstanding shares of Common Stock, such that each Twenty Five (25 share of Common Stock, $0.001 par value, issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the effective date (the "Old Common Stock") shall be recombined, reclassified and changed into One
share of the Company's Common Stock, $0.001 par value (the "New Common Stock")."
PURPOSE OF A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON
STOCK
There are various reasons for the proposed
Reverse Stock Split, the foremost of which is to decrease the number of free-trading shares available in the public marketplace
with the resulting per share price increase.
However, there is no assurance that
the market price of the Common Stock will not return to its present price range from the increase in the price of our Common Stock
following the Reverse Stock Split. A failure of the stock's trading price to completely readjust of the Reverse Stock Split would
result in a reduction in the market value of the Company's securities, but, on the other hand, it is possible that the Reverse
Stock Split may result in an increased value of the
market value of the Company's Common Stock.
There can be no assurance that the total
market capitalization of the Common Stock after the proposed Reverse Stock Split will be equal to the total market capitalization
before the proposed Reverse Stock Split or that the market price following the Reverse Stock Split will either exceed or remain
in excess of the current market capitalization.
EFFECTS OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
Pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split,
each holder of shares of our Common Stock (the "Old Common Stock") immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Reverse
Stock Split will become the holder of fewer shares of our Common Stock (the "New Common Stock") after consummation of
the Reverse Stock Split. Although the Reverse Stock Split, will not, by itself, impact our assets or properties, the Reverse Stock
Split could result in a decrease in the aggregate market value of our equity capital. The Reverse Stock Split will affect all stockholders
equally and will not affect any stockholder's proportionate
equity interest in us. Following the Reverse Stock Split, each share of New Common Stock will entitle the holder thereof to one
vote per share and will otherwise be identical to one share of the Old Common Stock.
The number of shares of Common
Stock issued and outstanding will be decreased to a number that will be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split divided by 25. With the exception of the
number of shares issued and outstanding, the rights and preference of the shares of Common prior and subsequent to the
Reverse Stock Split will remain the same. It is not anticipated that our financial condition, the percentage ownership of
management, the number of our stockholders or any aspect of our business would materially change as a result of the Reverse
Stock Split.
EFFECTIVENESS OF REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
The Reverse Stock Split will be effected
at a ratio of Twenty Five to One (25-to-1). Commencing on the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split, each Old Common Stock
certificate will be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of the decreased number of shares of Common Stock resulting
from the Reverse Stock Split.
The Reverse Stock Split will be effected
no less than 20 days and no more than 25 days following mailing of this Information Statement.
PROCEDURE FOR IMPLEMENTING THE REVERSE
STOCK SPLIT
Upon filing and effectiveness of the
Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada effecting the Reverse Stock Split if necessary, the
Reverse Stock Split shall occur without any further action on the part of the Company or the holders of shares of our Common Stock
and whether or not certificates representing such holders' shares prior to the Reverse Stock Split are surrendered for cancellation.
Stock certificates or book-entries dated as of the date prior to the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split representing outstanding
shares of Common Stock shall, immediately after the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, represent a number of shares equal
to the same number of shares of Common Stock as is reflected on the face of such certificates or book-entries, divided by twenty
five. We may, but shall not be obliged to , issue new certificates evidencing the post-split shares of Common Stock outstanding
as a result of the Reverse Stock Split if and when either (i) the certificates evidencing the shares held by a holder prior to
the Reverse Stock Split are delivered to the Company or our transfer agent or (ii) the holder notifies us or our transfer agent
that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to us to indemnify the Company
from any loss incurred by is in connection with such certificates.
STOCKHOLDERS OF RECORD SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S)
AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY CERTFICATES UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.
ACCOUNTING CONSEQUENCES
The par value per shares of our Common
Stock will remain unchanged at $0.001 per share after the Reverse Stock Split. As a result, on the effective date of the Reverse
Stock Split, the stated capital on our balance sheet attributable to Common Stock will be decreased proportionately and the additional
paid-in capital account will be increased by the amount by which the stated capital is increased. Per share net income or loss
will be increased
because there will be fewer shares of our Common Stock outstanding.
We do not anticipate that nay other accounting consequences, including changes to the amount of stock-based compensation expense,
if any, to be recognized in any period, will arise as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Our Board unanimously recommended a
vote "FOR" the approval to effectuate the Twenty Five(25) -to-One (1) Reverse Stock Split.
NO VOTING OF STOCKHOLDERS REQUIRED
We are not soliciting any votes with
regard to the proposal to effectuate the Reverse Stock Split. Certain principal stockholders have voted in favor of this Proposal
hold 54% of the total issued and outstanding shares of voting stock and accordingly, these principal stockholders have sufficient
shares to approve the Proposal.
DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS TO SECURITY
HOLDERS SHARING AN ADDRESS
Only one (1) Information Statement is
being delivered to multiple security holders sharing an address unless the Company has received contrary instructions from one
or more of the security holders. The Company shall deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of the Information
Statement to a security holder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered. A security holder can
notify the Company that the security holder
wishes to receive a separate copy of the Information Statement
by sending a written request to the Company at 7230 Indian Creek Lane #201, Las Vegas, NV 89149; or by calling the Company at 702-839-4029
and requesting a copy of the Information Statement. (1)A security holder may utilize the same address and telephone number to request
either separate copies or a single copy for a single address for all future Information Statements and annual reports.
By Order of the Board of Directors
