PROPOSAL 1

AMENDMENT OF ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THE COMPANY

Purpose: On September 21, 2012, the Company's Board of Directors unanimously adopted a resolution seeking stockholder approval to amend the Articles of Incorporation to change the Company’s name to “Q Therapeutics, Inc.” The Board believes that the name change is in the Company’s best interest and will support the rebranding of the Company and its public relations campaign.  The Board also believes that the name change more accurately reflects the business operations of the Company. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Q Therapeutics, Inc., changed its name to Q Therapeutic Products, Inc. on October 9, 2012. On October 15, 2012, pursuant to a Written Consent in lieu of a meeting, the holders of an aggregate of 16,713,354 shares of Common Stock of the Company, representing approximately 68% of the outstanding voting capital stock of the Company entitled to vote on the Name Change, voted in favor of the Name Change. Therefore, no further stockholder action is required pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Bylaws of the Company.

6

Effect: A change to the Company’s name will most likely result in a change to the Company’s CUSIP number.  Stockholders will not be required to tender their shares for reissuance; however, shares that are submitted to the transfer agent for whatever reason will be reissued under the new name and CUSIP number.  Stockholders should not encounter difficulty in selling or transferring shares as a result of the change in name or CUSIP number.

No Dissenters' Rights: The holders of the Company's common stock are not entitled to dissenters' rights in connection with the actions taken hereunder. Furthermore, the Company does not intend to independently provide those stockholders with any such rights.

EXISTING CERTIFICATES SHOULD NOT BE SENT TO THE COMPANY OR THE TRANSFER AGENT BEFORE THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE FILING OF THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION.

Audit and Nominating Committees

Our Board of Directors has not formally established separate audit and nominating committees though they perform many of the functions that would otherwise be delegated to such committees. Currently, our Board of Directors believes that the cost of establishing such committees, including the costs necessary to recruit and retain qualified independent directors to serve on our Board of Directors and such committees and the legal costs to properly form and document the authority, policies and procedures of such committees are not justified under our current circumstances. However, we anticipate that out Board of Directors will seek qualified independent directors to serve on the Board and ultimately form a standing nominating committee and nominate other directors to serve on its audit committee.

Code of Ethics and Conduct

On September 21, 2012, our Board of Directors approved the Q Holdings Code of Ethics and Conduct. We believe our Code of Ethics and Conduct is reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct; provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in public reports; comply with applicable laws; ensure prompt internal reporting of code violations; and provide accountability for adherence to the code. A copy of the Code of Ethics and Conduct will be filed as Exhibit 14.1 to our Quarterly Report for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012 and can be found on the Company’s website www.qthera.com.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

Our Board of Directors has not formally established separate audit committee though it performs many of the functions that would otherwise be delegated to such committee. Currently, our Board of Directors believes that the cost of establishing a separately standing audit committee, including the costs necessary to recruit and retain qualified independent directors to serve on the audit committee and the legal costs to properly form and document the authority, policies and procedures of such committee are not justified under our current circumstances. However, we anticipate that our Board of Directors will seek qualified independent directors to serve on the Board and ultimately form a standing audit committee.

The Board of Directors met 5 times in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. A majority of members of the Board of Directors were in attendance at all of the meetings.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions; and Director Independence.

Related Party and Certain Transactions

There have been no related-party transactions, or any other transactions or relationships required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K.

Director Independence

Our determination of independence of our directors is made using the definition of “independent director” contained under Rule 5065(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules, even though such definitions do not currently apply to us because we are not listed on NASDAQ. With the exception of Ms. Eppstein, who currently serves in the capacity of Officer and Director, we believe our Board of Directors is comprised of members who qualify as independent pursuant to this Rule.

Indemnification

Pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of the Company, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a law suit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. In certain cases, we may advance expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in any such proceeding as to which such person is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney’s fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable.

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

PROPOSAL 3

The 2011 Plan Amendment

On September 21, 2012, the Board unanimously approved to amend the Company’s 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”) so that as options expire or are forfeited under the Company’s 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2002 Plan”), the shares of Common Stock of the Company subject to such options will be added to the pool of shares reserved for issuance under the 2011 Plan (the “2011 Plan Amendment”). On October 15, 2012, the holders of an aggregate of 16,713,354 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 68% of the outstanding voting capital stock of the Company approved of the 2011 Plan Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit B to this Information Statement. A copy of the 2011 Plan was filed as Exhibit 99.7 to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No: 333-182447) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 29, 2012. On September 27, 2012, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No: 333-184141) therein registering an aggregate of 1,877,529 shares of Common Stock issuable under the 2011 Plan under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Below is a description of the 2011 Plan, the contents of which is qualified in its entirety by the 2011 Plan, as amended.

Q Holdings, Inc. 2011 Equity Incentive Compensation Plan

As previously disclosed in our SEC filings, in connection with the reverse merger on October 13, 2011 of our subsidiary, Q Therapeutics, Inc., into Q Acquisition, Inc., a subsidiary of Grace 2, Inc. and the name change of Grace 2, Inc. to Q Holdings, Inc., on October 13, 2011, our Board of Directors and stockholders approved of the “Q Holdings 2011 Equity Incentive Compensation Plan.” Subject to the provisions of the 2011 Plan, a designated committee (“Committee”) of the Board of Directors (or if none, the Board) may, from time to time, in its sole discretion select from among eligible Employees, Non-Employee Directors and Consultants those to whom awards shall be granted under the 2011 Plan, and shall determine in its discretion the nature, terms, conditions and amount of each award, subject to the terms of the 2011 Plan. The term of the 2011 Plan commenced on October 13, 2011 (the “Effective Date”) and shall remain in effect, subject to the right of the Committee or the Board to amend or terminate the Plan at any time pursuant to 2011 Plan, until the earlier of (i) the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, or (ii) all shares subject to the 2011 Plan have been purchased or acquired according to the 2011 Plan’s provisions.

14

The 2011 Plan includes a variety of forms of awards, including (i) stock options intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options (“Incentive Stock Options”) under the Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (ii) stock options not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options under the Code (“Nonqualified Stock Options”), (iii) stock appreciation rights, (iv) restricted stock awards, (v) performance stock awards and (vi) other stock-based awards to allow the Company to adapt its incentive compensation program to meet the needs of the Company. Please refer to the 2011 Plan for a description of the awards.

The purpose of the 2011 Plan is to promote the success and enhance the value of the Company by linking the personal interests of the participants to those of the Company’s stockholders, and by providing Participants with an incentive for outstanding performance. The 2011 Plan is further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to attract, motivate and retain the services of Participants upon whose judgment, interest and special effort the success of the Company is substantially dependent. The 2011 Plan initially provided for a reservation pool of up to 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2011 Plan. By Board authorization on December 6, 2011, the Board voted to add the remaining 228,472 shares available but unissued pursuant to the 2002 Plan to the authorized/reserved option pool for the 2011 Plan, bringing the 2011 Plan pool to 1,728,472 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2011 Plan. By Board authorization on September 21, 2012, the Board voted to add an aggregate of 149,057 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of option granted under the 2002 Plan but later forfeited or expired to the 2011 Plan. Currently, there are an aggregate of 1,877,529 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 2011 Plan.

Pursuant to the 2011 Plan, no amendment or modification which would increase the total number of shares available for issuance under the 2011 Plan or the total number of Shares available for Incentive Stock Options under the 2011 Plan shall be effective unless approved by the Company’s stockholders. The Board feels that the Company and its stockholders are best served when the Company’s officers’, directors’, eligible consultants’, employees’ and stockholders’ pecuniary interests are aligned. By enabling the Board to increase the pool of authorized shares for the 2011 Plan by capturing the shares that are made available as a result of options either expiring or being forfeited under the 2002 Plan without having to incur the costs and delay of having to repeatedly go to the Company’s stockholders for their approval is deemed by the Board to be essential to the efficient administration and oversight of the 2011 Plan. On October 15, 2012, the holders of the approximately 68% approved of the 2011 Plan Amendment.

PROPOSAL 4

Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On October 15, 2012, the Board unanimously selected Tanner, LLC (“Tanner”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012. On October 15, 2012, the holders of an aggregate of 16,713,354 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 68% of the outstanding voting capital stock of the Company ratified the Board’s selection of Tanner. Our Board engaged Tanner on October 12, 2011 and Tanner audited our financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Tanner will audit the Company’s financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2012 and render an audit report to be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and will review the Company’s quarterly financial statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to render other services as pre-determined and approved by the Board of Directors from time to time on an as needed basis.

Neither our Bylaws nor other governing documents or law require stockholder ratification of the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm. However, the Board of Directors submitted the selection of Tanner for majority consent of the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. Notwithstanding the majority stockholder ratification, the Board of Directors in its discretion may appoint a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if our Board of Directors determines that such a change would be in the best interests of our shareholders.
