PROXY STATEMENT


GENERAL INFORMATION


This Proxy Statement is being sent to you in connection with the solicitation of proxies for the 2009 annual and special meeting of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) by the Board of Directors of USA Video Interactive Corp. (the “Company”, “USA Video”, “we” or “us”) to be held at the offices of Beaumont Church LLP, Barristers and Solicitors, Suite 300, 2912 Memorial Drive S.E., Calgary, Alberta, Canada, T2A 6R1, at 11:00 a.m., Mountain Time, on Tuesday, June 30th, 2009, and at any adjournments thereof.  This proxy statement and the accompanying Notice of 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and form of proxy were first mailed to stockholders on or about May 29th, 2009. Shareholders are encouraged to review the information provided in this proxy statement in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.


Who may vote


Only our shareholders as recorded in our stock register at the close of business on May 22nd, 2009 (the “Record Date”) may vote at the Annual Meeting.  At the close of business on the Record Date, we had u common shares outstanding and entitled to vote, held by approximately u stockholders of record (excluding warrants to purchase 6,000,000 common shares and stock options to purchase 8,400,000 common shares).  Each common share is entitled to one vote on each matter properly brought before the Annual Meeting.  


How to vote


You may vote in person at the meeting or by proxy.  We recommend that you vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting.  You can always change your vote at the Annual Meeting.


Voting Electronically via the Internet


If your shares are registered in the name of a bank or brokerage you may be eligible to vote your shares electronically over the Internet or by telephone. A large number of banks and brokerage firms are participating in the Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. ("Broadridge") online program, which provides eligible shareholders who receive a paper copy of the proxy statement with the opportunity to vote via the Internet or by telephone. If your bank or brokerage firm is participating in Broadridge’s program, your voting form from the bank or brokerage firm will provide instructions. If your voting form does not reference Internet or telephone information, please complete and return the paper proxy card in the enclosed envelope.


How Proxies work


Giving us your proxy means you authorize us to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting in the manner you direct.  You may vote for or not vote for the nominees for director named in this Proxy Statement.  You may also vote for or against the proposal to ratify the appointment of John A. Braden & Company, P.C., CPAs as our independent auditors or abstain from voting and you may vote for or vote against the proposal to increase our authorized share capital to 500,000,000 shares of common stock, and you may vote for or vote against the proposal to reduce the quorum requirements for our shareholder meetings from at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote to at least 25% of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.


If you sign and return the enclosed proxy but do not specify how to vote, we will vote your shares in favor of the nominees for director named in this Proxy Statement and in favor of the other proposals described in this Proxy Statement.  In the discretion of the proxy holders, the proxies will also be voted for or against such other matters as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.  At the date this Proxy Statement went to press we did not know of any other matters to be raised at the Annual Meeting.




2



The persons named in the enclosed proxy are our directors and officers and you may strike out the names of the persons whom you do not wish to act on your behalf.  A shareholder has the right to appoint any person to attend and act for him or her at the Annual Meeting.  A Shareholder desiring to appoint a person to represent him at the Annual Meeting may do so either by inserting such person’s name in the blank space provided and striking out the printed names in the form of proxy or by completing another proxy.  In either case, the proxy must be delivered to the offices of our Transfer Agent, Computershare Trust Company Inc., 350 Indiana Street, Suite 800, Golden, Colorado, 80401, Fax: (303) 262-0631 530 at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled commencement of the Annual Meeting.


You may receive more than one proxy depending on how you hold your shares.  Shares registered in your name are covered by one proxy.  If you hold shares through someone else, such as a bank or broker (that is, in street name) please refer to your proxy card or the information forwarded by your bank, broker or other holder of record for voting instructions.  If you want to vote in person at the Annual Meeting, and you hold your shares in street name, you must obtain a proxy from your bank or broker and bring the proxy to the Annual Meeting.


This Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy card are first being mailed to shareholders on or about May 29th, 2009.


These securityholder materials are being sent to both registered and non-registered owners of the securities.  If you are a non-registered owner, and we or our agent have sent these materials directly to you, your name and address and information about your holdings of securities, have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding on your behalf.


By choosing to send these materials to you directly, we (and not the intermediary holding on your behalf) have assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions.  Please return your voting instructions as specified in the request for voting instructions.


Revoking a Proxy


You may revoke your proxy before it is voted by submitting a new proxy with a later date, by voting in person at the Annual Meeting, or by notifying our Corporate Secretary in writing at #507, 837 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 3N6.


In addition to revocation in any other manner permitted by law, a shareholder may revoke a Proxy either by (a) signing a Form of Proxy bearing a later date and depositing it at the place and within the time aforesaid, or (b) signing and dating a written notice of revocation (in the same manner as the Form of Proxy is required to be executed as set out in the notes to the Form of Proxy) and either depositing it at the place and within the time aforesaid or with the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the Meeting or on the day of any adjournment thereof, or (c) registering with the Scrutineer at the Meeting as a shareholder present in person, whereupon such Proxy shall be deemed to have been revoked.


Only registered shareholders have the right to revoke a proxy. Non-Registered Holders who wish to change their vote must, at least seven days before the Meeting, arrange for their respective Intermediaries to revoke the proxy on their behalf.


Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at our Annual Meeting, you must bring to the Annual Meeting a letter from the broker, bank or other nominee confirming your beneficial ownership of the shares and that such broker, bank or other nominee is not voting your shares.


The persons named in the accompanying Form of Proxy are our directors.  A shareholder desiring to appoint some other person (who need not be a shareholder) to represent him or her at the Meeting may do so, either by striking out the printed names and inserting the desired person's name in the blank space provided in the Form of Proxy or by completing another proper Form of Proxy and in either case delivering the completed Proxy to our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company Inc., 350 Indiana Street, Suite 800, Golden, Colorado, 80401, not less than forty-



3



eight (48) hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the time fixed for the Meeting or with the Chairman of the Meeting prior to the scheduled commencement of the meeting.


The Form of Proxy must be dated and be signed by the shareholder or by his attorney in writing, or, if the shareholder is a corporation, it must either be under its common seal or signed by a duly authorized officer.


Quorum


To conduct the business of the meeting, we must have a quorum.  This means at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote must be represented at the Annual Meeting, either by proxy or in person.  


Votes needed


The four nominees for director receiving a plurality of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting shall be elected.  Approval to ratify the appointment of John A. Braden & Company, P.C., to approve the increase in the authorize share capital to 500,000,000 shares of common stock, and to reduce the quorum requirements for our shareholder meetings from at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote to at least 25% of the outstanding shares entitled to vote requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting.  If the Annual Meeting is adjourned, your shares may be voted by the proxy holder on the new meeting date unless you have revoked your proxy.


Only votes cast “for” or “against” a proposal are counted.  Abstentions and broker non-votes (or votes withheld in the election of directors) will not be counted, except for purposes of determining a quorum.  Broker non-votes occur when a broker returns a proxy but does not have authority to vote on a particular proposal.


Attending in person


Only shareholders, their proxy holders, and USA Video’s guests may attend the Annual Meeting.


If you hold your shares through someone else, such as a bank or a broker, send proof of your ownership to the Secretary at the address listed above, or you may bring proof of ownership with you in order to be admitted to the Annual Meeting.  Acceptable proof could include an account statement showing that you owned USA Video shares on May 22nd, 2009.


We will pay the expenses of soliciting proxies.  Proxies may be solicited on our behalf by directors, officers or employees in person or by telephone, email or fax.  We will also reimburse banks, brokers and other persons holding shares in their names or in the names of their nominees for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in forwarding proxies and proxy material to the beneficial owners of such shares.


Non-Registered Shareholders


Only registered shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Annual Meeting.  Most shareholders of our company are “non-registered” shareholders because the shares they own are not registered in their names but are instead registered in the name of the brokerage firm, bank or trust company through which they purchased the shares.  More particularly, a person is a non-registered shareholder in respect of shares which are held on behalf of that person (the “Non-Registered Holder”) but which are registered either (a) in the name of an intermediary (the “Intermediary”) that the Non-Registered Holder deals with in respect of the shares (Intermediaries include, among others, banks, trust companies, securities dealers or brokers and trustees or administrators of self-administered RRSP’s, RRIF’s, RESP’s and similar plans); or (b) in the name of a clearing agency (such as The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited (“CDS”)) of which the Intermediary is a participant.  In accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 54-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators, we have distributed copies of the Notice of Meeting, Proxy Statement and Form of Proxy (collectively referred to as the “Meeting Material”) to the clearing agencies and Intermediaries for onward distribution to Non-Registered Holders.


Intermediaries are required to forward the Meeting Material to Non-Registered Holders unless a Non-Registered Holder has waived the right to receive them.  Very often, Intermediaries will use service companies to forward the



4



Meeting Material to Non-Registered Holders.  Generally, Non-Registered Holders who have not waived the right to receive the Meeting Material will either:


(a)

be given a form of proxy which has already been signed by the Intermediary (typically by a facsimile, stamped signature) which is restricted to the number of shares beneficially owned by the Non-Registered Holder, but which is otherwise not complete.  Because the Intermediary has already signed the Form of Proxy, this Form of Proxy is not required to be signed by the Non-Registered Holder when submitting the proxy.  In this case, the Non-Registered Holder who wishes to submit a proxy should otherwise properly complete the Form of Proxy and deposit it with our Registrar and Transfer Agent, Computershare Trust Company Inc., as provided above; or


(b)

more typically, be given a voting instruction form which is not signed by the Intermediary, and which, when properly completed and signed by the Non-Registered Holder and returned to the Intermediary or its service company, will constitute voting instructions (often called a “proxy” or “authorization form”) which the Intermediary must follow.  Typically, the proxy authorization form will consist of a one page pre-printed form.  Sometimes, instead of the one page printed form, the proxy authorization form will consist of a regular printed proxy form accompanied by a page of instructions that contains a removable label containing a bar-code and other information.  In order for the form of proxy to validly constitute a proxy authorization form, the Non-Registered Holder must remove the label from the instructions and affix it to the form of proxy, properly complete and sign the form of proxy and return it to the Intermediary or its service company in accordance with the instructions of the Intermediary or its service company.


In either case, the purpose of this procedure is to permit Non-Registered Holders to direct the voting of the shares that they beneficially own.  Should a Non-Registered Holder who receives one of the above forms wish to vote at the Annual Meeting in person, the Non-Registered Holder should strike out the names of the management designated proxy holders named in the form and insert the Non-Registered Holder’s name in the blank space provided (executed by the broker).  In either case, Non-Registered Holders should carefully follow the instructions of their Intermediary, including when and where the proxy or proxy authorization form is to be delivered.


ITEM 1:

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS


The board of directors has nominated and recommends FOR election of our four current directors for election at the Annual Meeting.  The enclosed Proxy will be voted FOR the persons nominated unless otherwise indicated.  If any of the nominees should be unable to serve or should decline to do so, the discretionary authority provided in the Proxy will be exercised by the proxy holders to vote for a substitute or substitutes to be designated by the Board of Directors.  The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any substitute nominee or nominees will be required.


Each nominee elected as a director will hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor is elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, resignation or retirement.  Set forth below for each nominee is his age and his position, if any, in our company.


The information set forth below as to each nominee for director has been furnished to us by the respective nominee.

Meetings of the Board of Directors


During 2008, the Board of Directors held a number of informal meetings, and took action by unanimous written consent on seven occasions.


Audit Committee


The Board of Directors has an audit committee (the “Audit Committee”), which is comprised of Anton J. Drescher, Maurice Loverso and Rowland Perkins.  Because Mr. Drescher is a director and a shareholder, he is not considered to be “independent” under the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, or the National Association of Securities Dealers.  As a Certified Management Accountant, Mr. Drescher is the audit committee financial expert.


The Audit Committee meets with our independent auditors at least quarterly to discuss the results of the annual audit or interim periodic reviews and to review the financial statements; appoints the independent auditors to be retained; oversees the independence of the independent accountants; evaluates the independent auditors’ performance; approves fees paid to independent auditors and receives and considers the independent auditors’ comments as to controls, adequacy of staff and management performance and procedures in connection with audit and financial controls. The Audit Committee met four times and signed four consent resolutions during fiscal 2008.


The Audit Committee is primarily concerned with the effectiveness of our audits by our internal audit staff and by our independent auditors.  Its duties include: (1) recommending the selection of independent auditors; (2) reviewing the scope of the audit to be conducted by them, as well as the results of their audit; (3) reviewing the organization and scope of our internal system of audit and financial controls; (4) appraising our financial reporting activities (including our Proxy Statement and Annual Report) and the accounting standards and principles followed; and (5) examining other reviews relating to compliance by employees with important policies and applicable laws.  The Audit Committee operates under a written Charter adopted by the Board of Directors, a copy of which was attached to the 2004 Proxy Statement and is also available by sending a written request to our Corporate Secretary at #507, 837 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3N6.


Other Committees


The Board of Directors currently has no other committees.




7



Code of Ethics


We have adopted a Code of Ethics and Corporate Disclosure Policy that applies to our directors, officers and employees and Corporate Governance Guidelines that applies to our directors and officers.  A copy of the Code of Ethics, Corporate Disclosure Policy and Corporate Governance Guidelines are posted on our website at http://www.usvo.com.  These documents are also available in print to any shareholder who requests a copy by sending a written request to our Corporate Secretary at #507, 837 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3N6.  


Relationship with Our Independent Auditors


The firm of John A. Braden & Company, P.C. has served as our independent auditors since March 25, 2009.  Previously, GLO CPAs, LLP. (the “Former Auditors”) served as our independent auditor for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 through March 25, 2009.  The Former Auditors were dismissed by the audit committee as our independent registered public accountant firm on March 25, 2009.  The audit report of the Former Auditor for fiscal 2007 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.  There were no disagreements with the Former Auditors on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.  The decision to change accountants was recommended by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors.


The Board of Directors has recommended John A. Braden & Company, P.C. to serve as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009.


Services performed by John A. Braden & Company, P.C. for fiscal 2008 consisted of the annual audited financial statements.  Services performed by GLO CPAs., LLP. for fiscal 2008 consisted of the examination of our quarterly financial statements and services related to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").


AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT


The material in this report is not "soliciting material," is not deemed "filed" with the SEC, and is not to be incorporated by reference in any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, whether made before or after the date of this proxy statement and irrespective of any general incorporation language therein.


The Audit Committee of the Board assists the Board in carrying out its oversight responsibilities for our financial reporting process, audit process and internal controls.


The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial statements with management, which has primary responsibility for the financial statements. John A. Braden & Company, P.C., our independent auditors for our 2008 audit, are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of our audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles.  


In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed in detail the audited fiscal year 2008 financial statements with our management and with John A. Braden & Company, P.C., our independent auditors. In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with John A. Braden & Company, P.C. the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards Number 61, Communication with Audit Committees, as modified or supplemented. The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from John A. Braden & Company, P.C. required by Independence Standards Board Standard Number 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees, as modified or supplemented, and has discussed with the independent auditors their independence from our company and our management. The Audit Committee has also considered whether John A. Braden & Company, P.C.'s provision of non-audit services to us is compatible with the independence of such firm.


Members of the Audit Committee rely on the information provided to them and on the representations made to the Committee by management and our independent accountants without conducting independent verification of the accuracy of such information and representations. Accordingly, the Audit Committee's oversight does not ensure



8



that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or appropriate internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee's considerations and discussions referred to above do not ensure that any audit of our financial statements conducted by our internal and independent accountants has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, or that the financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.


Based on these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board, and the Board has approved, that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, for filing with the Commission.


Based on the Audit Committee's and management's assessment of the performance of John A. Braden & Company, P.C. during the audit of our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that John A. Braden & Company, P.C. be engaged as our independent auditors for fiscal year 2009.

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”) requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of our company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.


To our knowledge, based solely on a review of copies of Forms 3, 4 and 5 furnished to us and written representations that no other reports were required, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, our officers, directors and 10% shareholders complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them except for Edwin Molina, who did not file a timely Form 4 on seven occasions and Anton J. Drescher who did not file a timely Form 4 on one occasion.


DIRECTOR AND EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION AND

OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGEMENT


Compensation Discussion and Analysis


Overview of Compensation Program


We do not have a compensation committee.  Our Board of Directors (the “Board”) is responsible for establishing, implementing and monitoring adherence with our compensation policy. The Board ensures that the total compensation paid to our directors, officers and employees is fair, reasonable and competitive.


Throughout this Form 10-K, the individuals who served as our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer during fiscal 2008, as well as the other individuals included in the Summary Compensation Table, are referred to as the “named executive officers”.


Employments Contracts


We do not have an employment contract with Mr. Molina and the other named executive officers.  We have no obligation to provide any compensation to Mr. Molina or any other named executive officer in the event of his resignation, retirement or termination, or a change in control of our company, or a change in any Named Executive Officers' responsibilities following a change in control.


We may in the future create retirement, pension, profit sharing and medical reimbursement plans covering our Executive Officers and Directors.


Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation


Decisions concerning the compensation of our executive officers are made by the Board.  All members of the Board during fiscal 2008 (Edwin Molina, Anton J. Drescher, Maurice Loverso and Rowland Perkins) participated in the Board’s deliberations concerning executive officer compensation during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.


Board of Directors Report on Executive Compensation


The Board determines the compensation of our executive officers.  


BOARD OF DIRECTORS: Report on Executive Compensation


We intend to establish a compensation committee at such time as we are able to attract a sufficient number of outside directors to the Board.  We are unable to state when we will be able to establish a formal compensation committee.  Pending establishment of the committee, the entire Board will continue to be responsible for our executive compensation policy.

Compensation Philosophy


We must compete for, attract, develop, motivate and retain high quality executive management personnel.  In order to do so, we offer a package including a competitive salary and, on a discretionary basis, additional compensation in the form of stock options.


Cash Compensation


Our executive salary levels are intended to be consistent with competitive salary levels and job responsibilities and experience level of each executive, as well as our overall salary structure and financial condition.  Salary changes reflect competitive and economic trends, our overall financial performance and the performance of the individual executive.  Salaries are reviewed annually by the Board.


Stock Options


Stock options are designed to attract and retain executives who can make significant contributions to our success, reward executives for such contributions, give executives a long-term incentive to increase shareholder value, and align the interests of our executive officers with those of our shareholders.


The Board has made, and expects to continue to make, grants of stock options to executive officers.  Recipients of option grants, and the size of the grants, are determined based on several factors, including the responsibilities of the individual officers, their past and anticipated contributions to our success, our overall performance, and prior option grants.  


Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer


In setting the compensation payable for 2008 to Edwin Molina, our Chief Executive Officer, the Board generally considered the same factors described above.  Additionally, the Board intends that Mr. Molina’s compensation be competitive with compensation paid to chief executive officers of similar sized companies in our industry and to reward Mr. Molina for directing our efforts in initiating and expanding our streaming media business.


IRS Limits on Deductibility of Compensation


We are subject to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which limits the deductibility of certain compensation payments to our executive officers in excess of $1.0 million.  The Board expects that cash compensation in 2009 paid to the Chief Executive Officer or any other executive officer to be well below $1.0 million.  Section 162(m) also provides for certain exemptions to the limitations on deductibility, including compensation that is “performance-based” within the meaning of Section 162(m).  Because we do not currently have a compensation committee comprised solely of outside directors, we currently cannot avail ourselves of the “performance-based” compensation exemption under Section 162(m).


The Board during fiscal 2008 consisted of:


Edwin Molina

Anton J. Drescher

Maurice Loverso

Rowland Perkins


The following table sets forth compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to our named executive officers as of December 31, 2008, whose salary and bonus for such year exceeded $100,000 for the last three completed fiscal years.

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the ratification of GLO CPAs LLP as our independent auditors for the current fiscal year.


ITEM 3:

INCREASE IN AUTHORIZED SHARE CAPITAL


We are proposing to alter our Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of common stock authorized to be issued from 250,000,000 shares of common stock to 500,000,000 shares of common stock.  This will allow us greater flexibility in issuing common shares in that our current issued and outstanding share capital is nearly 200,000,000, which limits our ability to carry out significant financings in the future.  We do not have any plans at present to issue a significant number of shares, other than ongoing private placement financings in a manner similar to previous private placement financings we have carried out.  


At the Meeting, shareholders will be asked to approve an alteration of our Articles of Incorporation to increase our authorized share capital to 500,000,000 shares of common stock. The text of the resolution to be considered and, if thought fit, approved at the Meeting is as follows:


“BE IT RESOLVED that:


(a)

the Articles of Incorporation be altered by increasing the authorized share capital from 250,000,000 shares of common stock to 500,000,000 shares of common stock;


(b)

any one director or officer be and is hereby authorized to do all things and execute all instruments necessary or desirable to give effect to this resolution, including without limitation, filing an alteration to the Articles of Incorporation with the Wyoming Secretary of State; and


(c)

notwithstanding that this resolution has been duly passed by the shareholders, the directors be and are hereby authorized and empowered to revoke this resolution at any time prior to the effective date hereof, and to determine not to proceed with the alteration to the Articles of Incorporation without further approval of the shareholders.”


Approval of the resolution will require the affirmative votes of the holders of not less than 51% of the votes cast at the Meeting in respect thereof. As set out in the text of the resolution, notwithstanding its approval, the board of



17



directors may determine not to proceed with the alteration to the Articles of Incorporation at any time prior to its effective date.


The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the resolution altering the Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized share capital, and the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy intend to vote for the approval of the resolution at the Meeting unless otherwise directed by the shareholders appointing them.


ITEM 4:

CHANGE IN QUORUM REQUIREMENTS FOR SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS


We are proposing to alter our Articles of Incorporation to change the quorum requirements for shareholder meetings from at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote to at least 25% of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.  


Section 17-16-725(a) of the Wyoming Business Corporation Act states that “Shares entitled to vote as a separate voting group may take action on a matter at a meeting only if a quorum of those shares exists with respect to that matter.  Unless the articles of incorporation or this act provide otherwise, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter by the voting group constitutes a quorum of that voting group for action on that matter.”


We are proposing to change our quorum requirement, which requirement is necessary to constitute a valid and duly called meeting, because as a result of the large number of issued voting shares of common stock, management has incurred extraordinary time and expense in procuring the necessary votes in order to comprise a quorum for shareholder meetings.  This has become increasingly difficult as the number of issued voting shares has increased over the years. If we are unable to obtain a quorum we must then adjourn the meeting, thereby creating additional expenses.


At the Meeting, shareholders will be asked to approve an alteration of our Articles of Incorporation to change the quorum requirements.  The text of the resolution to be considered and, if thought fit, approved at the Meeting is as follows:


(a)

the Articles of Incorporation be amended to reduce the quorum requirements for shareholder meetings from at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote to at least 25% of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, by adding a new Articles as follows:


At all meetings of shareholders, except where otherwise provided by statute or by the bylaws, or by these articles of incorporation, the presence, in person or by proxy duly authorized, of the holders of 25% of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business;


(b)

any one director or officer be and is hereby authorized to do all things and execute all instruments necessary or desirable to give effect to this resolution, including without limitation, altering the Articles of Incorporation; and


(c)

notwithstanding that this resolution has been duly passed by the shareholders, the directors be and are hereby authorized and empowered to revoke this resolution at any time prior to the effective date hereof, and to determine not to proceed with the alteration to the Articles of Incorporation without further approval of the shareholders.”


Approval of the resolution will require the affirmative votes of the holders of not less than 51% of the votes cast at the Meeting in respect thereof. As set out in the text of the resolution, notwithstanding its approval, the board of directors may determine not to proceed with the alteration to the Articles of Incorporation at any time prior to its effective date.


The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the resolution altering the Articles of Incorporation to change the quorum requirements for shareholder meetings, and the persons named in the



18



enclosed form of proxy intend to vote for the approval of the resolution at the Meeting unless otherwise directed by the shareholders appointing them.


REQUIREMENTS, INCLUDING DEADLINES, FOR
