Re:

Goldland Holdings Co.

Comments to Revised Preliminary Information Statement on Schedule 14C

Filed November 15, 2013

File No. 000-53505


Dear Mr. Reynolds:

I am writing as counsel to Goldland Holdings Co. (the “Company”) in response to the comments received from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by a letter dated November 29, 2013 to the Company’s Revised Preliminary Information Statement on Schedule 14C. Simultaneous with the submission of this letter, the Company is filing a revised Preliminary Information Statement on Schedule 14C (the “Revised Filing”), which incorporates the changes described below.  Below are the Company’s responses to each of the comments:

General

1.

We note your response to comment 1 in our letter dated October 22, 2013. The introductory paragraph to Topic 3 of the Division of Corporation Finance’s Financial Reporting Manual, available at http://www.sec.gov/divisions/corpfin/ cffinancialreportingmanual.pdf, states that “[s]maller reporting companies should present pro forma information for other current or probable transactions if that presentation would be material to investors.” Your revised disclosure reflects that “[t]he closing [of] the Equipment Acquisition could be considered a material change in the Company’s business plan,” that the Company is entering into the Equipment Acquisition “in order [to] diversify the Company’s operations,” and that the closing of the acquisition “could be deemed to constitute a change of control of the Company.” In addition, based on the amount of revenue that will be derived from leasing the equipment relative to the Company’s current annual revenue, it appears that pro forma information would be material to investors. Therefore, please provide pro forma financial information that accounts for the Equipment Acquisition and the related transactions or advise.



 

-1-


The Company has provided pro forma financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, which are the periods required by Rule 8-05 of Regulation S-X.  The pro forma financial statements are attached as Exhibit A hereto.

Acquisition and Lease of Casino Equipment, and Related Transactions, page 3

2.

Please disclose under a separate heading the interests of certain persons in the matters to be acted upon as required by Item 3 of Schedule 14C, including the amount of compensation and bonus shares to be awarded to your affiliates.

The Company has revised this section to add the requested disclosure of the interests of the persons who voted to approve the reverse split and the increase in the authorized shares. The revised language is attached hereto as Exhibit B.

Summary Term Sheet, page 3

3.

Please briefly disclose in this section the material transactions related to the Equipment Acquisition, including the agreements to issue the 17,000,000 bonus shares, the 19,977,980 bonus shares under the consulting agreements, and the 30,275,000 shares that may be issued as future compensation under consulting agreements. Also disclose the percentage of your total issued and outstanding shares that these shares represent and whether this may constitute a change of control of the company.

The summary term sheet section has been revised as requested.  The revised language is attached hereto as Exhibit C.

4.

Please disclose the dilution effect on the existing shareholders as a result of the transactions related to the Equipment Acquisition.

The summary term sheet section has been revised as requested.  The revised language is attached hereto as Exhibit C.

Bonus Shares, page 5

5.

Please quantify the dollar value of the bonus shares you expect to award to your officers, directors and significant shareholders.

The “Bonus Shares” section has been revised to disclose the expected value of the bonus shares that will be issued.  The revised language is attached hereto as Exhibit D.

Consulting Agreements, page 5

-2-



6.

Please clarify your disclosure as follows:

·

Quantify the dollar value of the bonus shares.

·

Describe the purpose of the consulting agreements, including the type of service each consultant is expected to provide to the company.

·

The cumulative annual consulting compensation equals $1,235,000, which exceeds the amount of annual lease payments of $700,000. Explain why the company plans to pay more in annual consulting fees in connection with the Equipment Acquisition than it would receive in annual leasing fees.

·

Disclose the estimated number of shares that may be issued as future compensation under the consulting agreements.

The “Consulting Agreements” section has been revised to disclose the expected value of the bonus shares that will be issued, the type of services that will be provided under each consulting agreement, and why the Company is agreeing to annual consulting compensation in excess of the annual lease payments.  The Company had previously disclosed the estimated number of shares that would be issued for future compensation in the section entitled “Effect of Equipment Acquisition and Related Transactions,” but has added that some disclosure to this section as well. The revised language is attached hereto as Exhibit E.

We look forward to discussing this with you after you have had a chance to review it, and answering any questions that you have.


Very truly yours,

All of the consulting agreements provide that they are terminable at will by either party prior to the expiration of the term on thirty days’ notice to the other party.  All of the consulting agreements provide that the bonus shares will be registered on Form S-8 prior to issuance.  With the exception of Mr. Kaiser’s consulting agreement, all of the consulting agreements provide that the compensation will be paid three times per year in restricted shares of the Company’s common stock valued at the closing price of the common stock at the end of each trimester.  In Mr. Kaiser’s case, his consulting payments will be made on a monthly basis with shares of restricted common stock with a value of $1,000, and in shares of common stock registered on Form S-8 with a value of $1,500.

The total annual compensation due under the consulting agreements exceeds the total lease payments due under the Lease.  Nevertheless, the Company believes that the Equipment Acquisition is in the best interests of shareholders.  First, a significant portion of the total consulting payments will be to persons who are present officers of the Company who would be paid otherwise, such that the total additional compensation is approximately $800,000 per year.  Second, the consultants have agreed to accept payment in shares of Common Stock, which means that the Equipment Acquisition will be cash flow positive for the Company.  Third, the Company has confidence that the new consultants have sufficient contacts to locate and arrange additional acquisitions in the mining and gaming industries that will be beneficial for shareholders.
