This Proxy Statement and form of Proxy were first sent to stockholders on or about August __, 2007. RECORD DATE AND SHARES OUTSTANDING At the close of business on August 1, 2007 (the "Record Date"), we had outstanding 465,831,410 shares of common stock, no par value ("Common Stock") and no shares of Preferred Stock, (the "Preferred Stock"). The Common Stock entitles each holder to one vote per share. REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES Any Proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the person giving it at any time before its use by delivering to us a written notice of revocation or a duly executed Proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the Special Meeting and voting in person. A stockholder's mere presence at the Special Meeting will not revoke any Proxy previously given to us. VOTING PROCEDURES GENERAL. Your shares will be voted in accordance with your voting instructions on your form of Proxy. If you submit a signed Proxy, but do not mark your instructions, your shares will be voted as follows: o FOR THE AMENDMENT TO OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OF THE COMPANY FROM FOUR HUNDRED EIGHTY MILLION (480,000,000) TO TWENTY BILLION (20,000,000,000) (THE "SHARE INCREASE"); o FOR THE AUTHORIZATION OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO EFFECT, IN ITS DISCRETION, A TWO-HUNDRED-FOR-ONE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF THE COMPANY'S SHARES OF COMMON STOCK PRIOR TO THE NEXT ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS (THE "REVERSE STOCK SPLIT"); AND o AT THE DISCRETION OF THE PROXIES, UPON SUCH OTHER BUSINESS AS MAY PROPERLY COME BEFORE THE SPECIAL MEETING OR ANY ADJOURNMENT OR POSTPONEMENT THEREOF. SUBMISSION OF PROXIES. We encourage you to sign, date, and return the proxy card, even if you plan to attend the Special Meeting, so that your shares will be voted if you are unable to attend the meeting. If you attend the Special Meeting and wish to vote in person, we will provide you with ballots at the Special Meeting. If your shares are registered directly in your name, you are considered the stockholder of record, and you have the right to vote in person at the Special Meeting. If your shares are held in the name of your broker or other nominee, you will need to bring with you to the Special Meeting a legal proxy from your broker or other nominee authorizing you to vote these shares. 1 SOLICITATION OF PROXIES The cost of this solicitation will be borne by us, including the costs of printing and mailing. In addition to solicitation by mail, proxies may also be solicited by our directors, officers, or regular employees, without additional compensation, personally, or by telephone, telecopier or email. We will reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for reasonable expenses incurred by them in sending this Proxy Statement to the beneficial owners of Common Stock. QUORUM; VOTING; ABSTENTIONS; BROKER NON-VOTES The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the aggregate voting power of our Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date will constitute a quorum, permitting the conduct of business at the meeting. As of the Record Date, 465,831,410 shares of Common Stock, representing the same number of votes, were outstanding. Thus, the presence of the holders of Common Stock representing at least 232,915,707 will be required to establish a quorum. Proxies received but marked as abstentions, votes withheld and "broker non-votes" will be included in the calculation of the number of votes considered to be present at the meeting for the purposes of determining a quorum. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present at the meeting in person or by proxy and entitled to vote is required to approve all proposals brought before the meeting. Shares which abstain from voting as to these matters, and shares held in "street name" by brokers or nominees who indicate on their proxies that they do not have discretionary authority to vote such shares as to these matters (broker non-votes), will not be counted as votes in favor of such matters. For purposes of determining whether the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present at the meeting and entitled to vote on a proposal has been obtained, abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in the number of shares entitled to vote and present. Abstentions will have the effect of a vote "against" the matter and broker non-votes will not be counted towards the votes required to achieve the majority vote. INTERESTS OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON None. PROPOSALS BY STOCKHOLDERS None. DISSENTERS' RIGHT OF APPRAISAL None. CHANGE IN CONTROL. None. 2 SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT The following table sets forth certain information as of August 1, 2007 with respect to the beneficial ownership of the outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock by (i) each stockholder known to be the beneficial owner of five percent (5%) or more of the outstanding shares, (ii) each executive officer and director of the Company, and (iii) all the aforementioned executive officers and directors as a group. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock subject to options, warrants or convertible securities exercisable or convertible within 60 days of August 1, 2007 are deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of the person or entity holding such options, warrants or convertible securities but are not deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other person, and is based on 465,831,410 common shares issued and outstanding on as of August 1, 2007. Name of Beneficial Owner Number of Shares of Common Stock ------------------------ Beneficially Owned (1) Percent of Class (1) Jacques Tizabi, 107,979,700 (2) 18.81% President, CEO, Acting CFO, Director Matin Emouna, 0 * Director Michael Collins, 0 * Secretary and Director Directors and executive officers as a group (4 persons).......................... 107,979,700 (2) 18.81%
* Less than 1%. (1) Under Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, 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 that person (and only that 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 with respect to the number of shares of our common stock actually outstanding at August 1, 2007. As of August 1, 2007, we had 465,831,410 common shares, no par value, outstanding. (2) Includes 107,950,000 shares that may be acquired upon the exercise of fully vested options. WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION We are subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and in accordance with the Exchange Act, we file periodic reports, documents and other information with the SEC relating to our business, financial statements and other matters. These reports and other information may be inspected and are available for copying at the offices of the SEC, 100 F Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, or may be accessed on the SEC website at www.sec.gov. [Remainder of Page Intentionally Left Blank] 3 PROPOSAL 1 AMENDMENT TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK FROM 480,000,000 TO 20,000,000,0000 We are proposing to amend our Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized common stock from 480,000,000 shares to 20,000,000,000 shares (referred to hereafter as the "Authorized Shares Amendment"). The text of the Authorized Shares Amendment is included in this Proxy Statement as Exhibit A. Currently, we have 480,000,000 shares of common stock authorized, of which 465,831,410 shares are issued and outstanding as of the record date, and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock authorized, of which no shares are issued or outstanding. The Authorized Shares Amendment will be implemented by filing the Amended Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of California (the "Certificate of Amendment"). Following the Authorized Shares Amendment, the number of shares of the Company's capital stock will be as follows: COMMON STOCK AUTHORIZED PREFERRED STOCK AUTHORIZED OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK OUTSTANDING PREFERRED STOCK ----------- ------------ ----------- --------------- Pre Authorized Shares Amendment 465,831,410 480,000,000 0 20,000,000 Post Authorized Shares Amendment 465,831,410 20,000,000,000 0 20,000,000
REASON FOR AMENDMENT The Company has utilized nearly all of its authorized shares of Common Stock. The unissued shares of Common Stock will be available for issuance from time to time as may be deemed advisable or required for various purposes, including the issuance of shares in connection with financing or acquisition transactions, the issuance of shares in connection with stock splits or stock dividends and the issuance or reservation of Common Stock for equity awards to employees, officers, consultants and directors. The Company currently has no plans for any financing or acquisition transactions but may in the future develop such plans. The Authorized Shares Amendment was not adopted as a result of management's knowledge of any specific effort to accumulate our securities or to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, solicitation in opposition to management or otherwise. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, our charter and bylaws contain no provisions having an anti-takeover effect, the adoption of the Authorized Shares Amendment is not part of a plan by management to adopt a series of such amendments, and management does not intend to propose other anti-takeover measures. EFFECT OF THE PROPOSAL/ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES The Authorized Shares Amendment will permit our Board of Directors to authorize the issuance of shares without the necessity and related costs and delays of either calling a special stockholders' meeting or waiting for an annual meeting of stockholders in order to increase the authorized capital. 4 Generally, the availability of additional authorized and unissued shares of common stock could make attempts to gain control of the Company or the board more difficult, costly or time consuming and the availability of additional authorized and unissued shares might make it more difficult to remove management. For example, although the board currently has no intention of doing so, shares of common stock could be issued by the Board to dilute the percentage of common stock owned by a significant stockholder and increase the cost of, or the number of, voting shares necessary to acquire control of the board or to meet the voting requirements imposed by California law with respect to a merger or other business combination involving the Company. SECTIONS 902 AND 903 OF THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATIONS CODE Sections 902 and 903 of the California Corporations Code permit the amendment of a corporation's articles of incorporation to allow for an increase or decrease of the aggregate number of authorized shares of a class so long as the holders of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of each class approve the action. The holders of Common Stock of the Company are required to vote on this action. There are no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding. EFFECTIVE DATE The Authorized Shares Amendment will become effective upon the filing of the Authorized Shares Amendment with the California Secretary of State. VOTE REQUIRED The affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the meeting will be required to approve the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's Common Stock. RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE AMENDMENT TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK FROM 480,000,000 TO 20,000,000,000. PROPOSAL 2 REVERSE STOCK SPLIT The Board of Directors has approved a resolution giving the Board of Directors discretionary authority to amend the Company's Articles of Incorporation to effect a two-hundred-for-one (200:1) reverse stock split of the Common Stock of the Company (the "Reverse Split") at any time during the next twelve months or prior to the next annual meeting of stockholders, whichever occurs first. The Board had determined the split ratio based upon a review of the capital structure of the Company, including shares and convertible instruments outstanding, share price, general market conditions and the potential benefits from the Reverse Split. The amendment will be referred to in this Proxy Statement as the "Reverse Split Amendment". The proposed "form" of the Reverse Split Amendment is attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit B. The Reverse Split Amendment will become effective on the date it is filed with the Secretary of State of California, which date will be selected by the Board of Directors on or prior to the Company's next annual meeting of stockholders. The Board of Directors reserves the right to forego or postpone filing the Reverse Split Amendment if such action is determined not to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. If the Reverse Split is not affected by the Board of Directors on or before the next annual meeting of stockholders, the authority to file the Reverse Split Amendment and effect the Reverse Split will lapse. 5 If the Reverse Split is affected by the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors will fix a record date for determining the shares subject to the Reverse Split. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Board of Directors has not fixed a record date for the Reverse Split. The Board of Directors believes that the Reverse Split will be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders because the Company believes the Reverse Split will maximize stockholder value. Management believes that the Reverse Split is in the Company's best interest in that it may increase the trading price of its Common Stock. An increase in the price of the Common Stock could, in turn, generate greater investor interest in the Company, thereby enhancing the marketability of the Company's Common Stock to the financial community. The potential increases in the trading price and greater interest from the financial community could ultimately improve the trading liquidity of the Company's Common Stock. The effect of the Reverse Stock Split would be to reduce the total number of shares of the Company's Common Stock from 465,831,410 to approximately 2,329,157 issued and outstanding. However, the Reverse Split will affect all of the holders of the Company's Common Stock uniformly and will not affect any stockholder's percentage ownership interest in the Company, except for insignificant changes that will result from the rounding of fractional shares. If the Reverse Split is effected, it will take place without any action on the part of the holders of all classes of the Company's Common Stock and without regard to current certificates representing shares of all classes of the Company's Common Stock being physically surrendered for certificates representing the number of shares of all classes of the Company's Common Stock each stockholder is entitled to receive as a result of the Reverse Split. New certificates of the Company's Common Stock will not be issued. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Split. Any fractional share will be rounded to the next whole share. The Reverse Stock Split was not adopted as a result of management's knowledge of any specific effort to accumulate our securities or to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, solicitation in opposition to management or otherwise. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, our charter and bylaws contain no provisions having an anti-takeover effect, the adoption of the Reverse Split is not part of a plan by management to adopt a series of such amendments, and management does not intend to propose other anti-takeover measures. In certain circumstances, our management may issue additional shares to resist a third party takeover transaction, even if done at an above market premium and favored by a majority of independent shareholders. There are no adverse material consequences or any anti-takeover provisions in either our Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws that would be triggered as a consequence of the Reverse Split. The Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws do not address any consequence of the Reverse Split. CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES The following summary of certain material federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Split does not purport to be a complete discussion of all of the possible federal income tax consequences and is included for general information only. Further, it does not address any state, local, foreign or other income tax consequences, nor does it address the tax consequences to stockholders that are subject to special tax rules, such as banks, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, personal holding companies, foreign entities, nonresident alien individuals, broker-dealers and tax-exempt entities. The discussion is based on the United States federal income tax laws as of the date of this Information Statement. Such laws are subject to change retroactively as well as prospectively. This summary also assumes that the shares of Common Stock are held as "capital assets," as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The tax treatment of a stockholder may vary depending on the facts and circumstances of such stockholder. 6 EACH STOCKHOLDER IS URGED TO CONSULT WITH SUCH STOCKHOLDER'S TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE SPLIT. No gain or loss should be recognized by a stockholder as a result of the Reverse Split; provided, however, any whole shares received in lieu of fractional shares may result in a taxable gain or loss. The aggregate tax basis of the shares received in the Reverse Split will be the same as the stockholder's aggregate tax basis in the shares exchanged. The stockholder's holding period for the shares received in the Reverse Split will include the period during which the stockholder held the shares surrendered as a result of the Reverse Split. The Company's views regarding the tax consequences of the Reverse Split are not binding upon the Internal Revenue Service or the courts, and there is no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service or the courts would accept the positions expressed above. The state and local tax consequences of the Reverse Split may vary significantly as to each stockholder, depending on the state in which such stockholder resides. The Reverse Split will take effect upon the filing of an amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of California. VOTE REQUIRED The affirmative vote of the majority of Common Stock present in person or represented by Proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter will be required to approve the Reverse Split. RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT THE STOCKHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE REVERSE SPLIT, GIVING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AUTHORITY, IN ITS DISCRETION, TO EFFECT A TWO-HUNDRED-FOR-ONE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF THE COMMON STOCK. OTHER MATTERS A copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, as filed with the Securities Exchange Commission, is available upon written or oral request and without charge to stockholders by writing to c/o Jacques Tizabi, Universal Detection Technology, 9595 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 700, Beverly Hills, California 90212.
