Information Statement


December [__], 2012

 
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY.

Introduction

This Information Statement is being mailed to the stockholders of Fits My Style Inc., a Nevada corporation (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”, “we”, “our”, “us”), on or about [__], 2012 in connection with the corporate actions described below. The Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) and holders (collectively, the “Consenting Stockholders”) of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Common Stock”) of the Company, acting by written consent in lieu of a meeting, approved a change of the Company’s name from Fits My Style, Inc. to AntriaBio, Inc (the “Name Change”).  In addition, the Board and the Consenting Stockholders approved a plan of conversion (the “Plan of Conversion”), pursuant to which the Company will convert from a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada to a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Reincorporation”), and such approval includes the adoption of the certificate of incorporation (the “Delaware Certificate”) and the bylaws (the “Delaware Bylaws”) for the Company under the laws of the State of Delaware, each to become effective concurrently with the effectiveness of the Reincorporation.  The Board and the Consenting Stockholders also approved a six (6) for one (1) forward stock split (the “Forward Split”) so that every one (1) outstanding share of the Common Stock before the Forward Split, shall represent six (6) shares of Common Stock after the Forward Split.  Accordingly, this Information Statement is furnished solely for the purpose of informing stockholders, in the manner required under Regulation 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), of these corporate actions. No other stockholder approval is required.  The record date for determining stockholders entitled to receive this Information Statement has been established as the close of business on December [__], 2012 (the “Record Date”).  The Name Change, the Reincorporation and the Forward Split are referred to collectively herein as the “Actions.”

The Nevada Revised Statutes permit any action that can be taken at an annual or special meeting of stockholders to be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that will be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted consent to such action in writing.  The approval the Reincorporation requires the affirmative vote or written consent of the majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock.

Common Stock

On December [__], 2012, there were 4,101,000 shares of the Common Stock issued and outstanding, of which the Consenting Stockholder held approximately 80.8%, or 3,315,000 shares.  Each share of the Common Stock entitles the holder to one vote per share.  On the Record Date we had outstanding 4,101,000 shares of the Common Stock for 4,101,000 votes.

CORPORATE ACTION TO BE TAKEN

Under Exchange Act Rule 10b-17, we must notify the Financial Industry Regulatory Agency (“FINRA”) no later than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the Name Change and the Forward Split. The following actions were approved by written consent of the Consenting Stockholders upon the unanimous recommendation of the Board.

CORPORATE ACTION #1
NAME CHANGE TO ANTRIABIO, INC.
Overview

We are currently a “shell” company as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with limited assets and nominal operations and our current name, Fits My Style, Inc., does not have any significance to our Company, our operations or our future plans.   On [_________], 2012, we entered into preliminary negotiations with AntriaBio, Inc., a Delaware corporation and privately-owned company (“AntriaBio”), with respect to the principal terms and conditions pursuant to which we would purchase all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of AntriaBio and AntriaBio would become our wholly-owned operating subsidiary (the “Merger”) pursuant to a share exchange and reorganization agreement (the “Share Exchange and Reorganization Agreement”) between us, AntriaBio and the beneficial holders of AntriaBio’s issued and outstanding capital stock.  We and AntriaBio anticipate entering  into the Share Exchange and Reorganization Agreement  and completing the Merger transaction during the first quarter of 2013, although the parties have not entered into a definitive Share Exchange and Reorganization Agreement as of the date of this Information Statement and there can be no assurances that the Merger transaction will be consummated.  The approval of the Company’s stockholders is not required.  Assuming we complete the Merger transaction, AntriaBio stockholders will hold approximately 88.2% of our issued and outstanding Common Stock.

AntriaBio is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing proprietary products based largely on established active  pharmaceutical ingredients in sustained release injectable formulations.

Reasons for Name Change

In connection with the Merger we will change our name to AntriaBio, Inc. prior to the consummation of the Merger.  We believe that changing our name to AntriaBio, Inc. is more in line with AntriaBio’s line of business and will aid us in achieving brand recognition and better position us to obtain future sources of financing.

Effects of the Name Change

The Name Change will be effective when we file the Certificate of Conversion and the Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.  In the event that the Merger is not consummated with AntriaBio after we have changed our name to AntriaBio, Inc., we will change our name to a new name not related with AntriaBio, Inc.

Dissenters’ Rights

Pursuant to the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”), our stockholders are not entitled to dissenters’ rights with respect to the Name Change.

CORPORATE ACTION #2
CHANGE IN OUR STATE OF INCORPORATION
FROM NEVADA TO DELAWARE
 
Overview
 
On November 30 , 2012, the Board unanimously approved and, by written consent, the Consenting Stockholders approved, the Plan of Conversion pursuant to which the Company will effect the Reincorporation, in compliance with the Delaware General Corporation law and the NRS.
 
Principal Reasons for the Reincorporation Under Delaware Law
 
Corporate Law
 
As we  plan  for the  future,  the  Board  and management believe that it is essential to be able to draw upon well-established principles of corporate  governance in making legal and business decisions.  The prominence  and predictability of  Delaware corporate law provide a reliable foundation  on which the Company's  governance  decisions can be based. The Board  believes that the stockholders will benefit from the responsiveness of the Delaware corporate law.
 
For many years, Delaware has followed a policy of encouraging incorporation in Delaware and, in furtherance of that policy, has been the leader in adopting, construing and implementing comprehensive, flexible corporate laws that are responsive to the legal and business needs of the corporations organized under Delaware law.  Unlike most states, including Nevada, Delaware has established progressive
 

 
6

 
principles of corporate governance that the Company could draw upon when making business and legal decisions.  
 
To take advantage of Delaware’s flexible and responsive corporate laws, many corporations choose to incorporate initially in Delaware or choose to reincorporate into Delaware, as the Company proposes to do.  In general, the Board believes that Delaware provides a more appropriate and flexible corporate and legal environment in which to operate than currently exists in the State of Nevada and that the Company and its stockholders would benefit from such an environment.  The Board has considered the following benefits available to Delaware corporations in deciding to propose reincorporation in Delaware:
 
 
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which is generally acknowledged to be the most advanced and flexible corporate statute in the country;
 
 
the responsiveness and efficiency of the Division of Corporations of the Secretary of State of Delaware;
 
 
the Delaware General Assembly, which each year considers and adopts statutory amendments that the Corporation Law Section of the Delaware State Bar Association proposes in an effort to ensure that the corporate statute continues to be responsive to the changing needs of businesses;
 
 
the Delaware Court of Chancery, which handles complex corporate issues with a level of experience and a degree of sophistication and understanding unmatched by any other court in the country, and the Delaware Supreme Court, which is highly regarded; and
 
 
the well-established body of case law construing Delaware law, which has developed over the last century and which provides businesses with a greater degree of predictability than most, if not all, other jurisdictions provide.
 
Additionally, management believes that, as a Delaware corporation, the Company would be better able to continue to attract and retain qualified directors and officers than it would be able to as an Nevada corporation, in part, because Delaware law provides more predictability with respect to the issue of liability of directors and officers than Nevada law does.  The increasing frequency of claims against directors and officers that are litigated has greatly expanded the risks to directors and officers of exercising their respective duties.  The amount of time and money required to respond to and litigate such claims can be substantial.  Although Nevada law and Delaware law both permit a corporation to include a provision in the corporation’s articles or certificate, as the case may be, of incorporation that in certain circumstances reduces or limits the monetary liability of directors for breaches of their fiduciary duty of care, Delaware law, as stated above, provides to directors and officers more predictability than Nevada law does and, therefore, provides directors and officers of a Delaware corporation a greater degree of comfort as to their risk of liability than that afforded under Nevada law. As the  Company  plans  for the  future,  the  board of  directors  and management believe that it is essential to be able to draw upon well-established principles of corporate  governance in making legal and business decisions.  The prominence  and  predictability  of  Delaware  corporate  law provide a reliable foundation on which the Company's  governance  decisions can be based.

Capital Raising
 
Delaware is a recognized and understood jurisdiction throughout the international financial community.  The Company would be better positioned to raise capital both within and outside of the United States by being incorporated in Delaware.  Many international investment funds, sophisticated investors, and brokerage firms are more comfortable and more willing to invest in a Delaware corporation than in a corporation incorporated in another U.S. jurisdiction whose corporate laws may be less understood and perceived to be outdated and unresponsive to stockholder rights.
 
As the Company moves towards advancing its projects, the Board believes that the Company will be best suited to pursue all available financing options in the best interests of its stockholders if the Company is incorporated in Delaware versus Nevada.  The Board believes that the Reincorporation will represent  a better opportunity for the Company to increase stockholder value.
 
Any stockholders that votes against the Reincorporation may, under certain conditions, become entitled to be paid for his or her shares of the Corporation's capital stock in lieu of receiving shares of the Delaware Corp.  Under Nevada Law Section 92A.380, you, the Company’s stockholder, have the right to dissent from the Reincorporation and demand payment of the fair value of your shares of the Company’s capital stock and are urged to read the full text of the Nevada dissenters' rights statute, which is reprinted in its entirety and attached as Appendix F to this Information Statement.
 
Disadvantages of Reincorporation in Delaware
 
While our Board believe that the foregoing benefits and advantages of the Reincorporation into Delaware are significant, you may find the Reincorporation disadvantageous.  The Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to adopt a number of measures, through amendment of the corporate certificate of incorporation or bylaws or otherwise, designed to reduce a corporation's vulnerability to unsolicited takeover attempts.  There is substantial judicial precedent in the Delaware courts as to the legal principles applicable to such defensive measures with respect to the conduct of the board of directors under the business judgment rule, and the related enhanced scrutiny standard of judicial review, with respect to unsolicited takeover attempts.  The substantial judicial precedent in the Delaware courts may potentially be disadvantageous to you to the extent it has the effect of providing greater certainty that the Delaware courts will sustain the measures the Company has in place or implements to protect stockholder interests in the event of unsolicited takeover attempts.  Such measures may also tend to discourage a future attempt to acquire control of the Company that is not presented to and approved by the Company’s Board, but that a substantial number and perhaps even a majority of the stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which stockholders might receive a substantial premium for their shares over then current market prices.  As a result of such effects, stockholders who might desire to participate in such a transaction may not have an opportunity to do so.
 
We intend to effect the Reincorporation pursuant to the Plan of Conversion in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix A.  The Plan of Conversion provides that the Company will convert from a Nevada corporation to a Delaware corporation (“Delaware Corp”) and thereafter be subject to the laws of the State of Delaware.  The Reincorporation would be considered, in effect, a continuation of existence of the Company, with  the existence of Delaware Corp deemed to have commenced when the Company was first formed in Nevada.
 
General actions that will occur pursuant to the Plan of Conversion
 
Pursuant to the Plan of Conversion, Delaware General Corporate Law, as amended (the “DGCL”), and the NRS, upon conversion:
 
 
The Company will cease to be governed by the NRS and will be deemed a Delaware corporation subject to the DGCL;
 
 
8

 
 
 
Delaware Corp will be deemed to be the same entity as the Company for all purposes under the laws of Delaware, with the Company’s existence deemed to have commenced when the Company was first formed in Nevada;
 
 
Delaware Corp will continue to have all of the assets of the Company;
 
 
Delaware Corp will continue to have all the debts, liabilities and duties of the Company; and
 
 
Each director and officer of the Company will continue to hold their respective offices with Delaware Corp.
 
Approval of the Filing of the Articles of Conversion and the Certificate of Conversion
 
Pursuant to the Plan of Conversion and in connection with the Reincorporation, the Board and the Consenting Stockholders approved the filing:  (1) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada articles of conversion, in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix B  (“Articles of Conversion”); (2) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of conversion in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix C (the “Certificate of Conversion”); and (3) the Certificate of Incorporation, substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix D.
 
Adoption of Delaware Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
 
In connection with the Reincorporation, the Board and the Consenting Stockholders adopted the Certificate of Incorporation in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix D and the Delaware Bylaws substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix E, each to become effective concurrently with the effectiveness of the Reincorporation.  At the time they become effective, the Certificate of Incorporation will supersede the Company’s current articles of incorporation and the Delaware Bylaws will supersede the Company’s current bylaws.  The Certificate of Incorporation and the Delaware Bylaws were adopted in order to reflect the Reincorporation of the Company in the State of Delaware and to implement provisions deemed by the Board to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
 
Effect on the Company’s Securities
 
Common Stock
 
The authorized capital stock of the Company currently consists of  200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.  Upon effectiveness of the Reincorporation, the authorized capital of Delaware Corp will remain 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.  Pursuant to the Plan of Conversion, each share of common stock of the Company, $0.001 par value per share, that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Reincorporation will automatically convert into one share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share of Delaware Corp, and each share of preferred stock of the Company, $0.001 par value per share, that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Reincorporation shall convert into one share of preferred stock of Delaware Corp, $0.001 par value per share.

Anti-Takeover Implications
 
Both Nevada and Delaware permit a corporation to include in its certificate of incorporation or bylaws or to otherwise adopt measures designed to reduce a corporation’s vulnerability to unsolicited takeover attempts.  The Board, however, is not proposing the Reincorporation to prevent a change in control of the Company.

With respect to implementing defensive strategies, Delaware law is preferable to Nevada law because of the substantial judicial precedent on the legal principles applicable to defensive strategies.  As a Nevada corporation or a Delaware corporation, the Company could implement some of the same defensive measures.  As a Delaware corporation, however, the Company would benefit from the predictability of Delaware law on such matters.
 
For a discussion of differences between Nevada and Delaware law see “Changes to Stockholder Rights Before and After the Reincorporation–Changes from Nevada to Delaware Law–Business Combinations; – Control Share Acquisitions” below.
 
Changes to Stockholder Rights Before and After the Reincorporation
 
As previously noted, the Certificate of Incorporation and Delaware Bylaws will be the governing instruments of the Company following the Reincorporation, resulting in some changes from the Company’s current articles of incorporation and bylaws, which are primarily procedural in nature, such as a change in the registered office and agent of the Company from an office and agent in Nevada to an office and agent in Delaware.  There are also material differences between the DGCL and the NRS.  Certain changes to the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company, as well as the material differences between Delaware and Nevada law are discussed below.  The following summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Delaware and Nevada corporate laws, the Certificate of Incorporation and Delaware Bylaws, copies of which are attached hereto as Appendix D and Appendix E, respectively.
 
Changes From Nevada Law to Delaware Law

Set forth below is a table summarizing the material differences in the rights of the stockholders of the Company before and after the Reincorporation is effective, as a result of the differences between Nevada law and Delaware law.  This chart does not address each difference between Delaware law and Nevada law, but focuses on some of those differences which the Company believes are most relevant to the existing stockholders. This chart is not intended as an exhaustive list of all differences, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Delaware and Nevada law.

Nevada law prohibits certain business combinations between a Nevada corporation and an interested stockholder for three years after such person becomes an interested stockholder.  Generally, an interested stockholder is a holder who is the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the voting power of a corporation’s outstanding stock and at any time within three years immediately before the date in question was the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the then outstanding stock of the corporation.  After the three year period, business combinations remain prohibited unless they are (a) approved by the board of directors prior to the date that the person first became an interested stockholder or a majority of the outstanding voting power not beneficially owned by the interested party, or (b) the interested stockholder satisfies certain fair-value requirements.  An interested stockholder is (i) a person that beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of a corporation, or (ii) an affiliate or associate of the corporation who,
 
Delaware law prohibits, in certain circumstances, a “business combination” between the corporation and an “interested stockholder” within three years of the stockholder becoming an “interested stockholder.”  Generally, an “interested stockholder” is a holder who, directly or indirectly, controls 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock or is an affiliate of the corporation and was the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock at any time within the three-year period prior to the date upon which the status of an “interested stockholder” is being determined.  A “business combination” includes a merger or consolidation, a sale or other disposition of assets having an aggregate market value equal to 10% or more of the consolidated assets of the corporation or the aggregate market value of the outstanding stock of the corporation and certain transactions that would increase the interested stockholder’s proportionate share ownership in the corporation.  This provision does not apply where, among other things, (i) the transaction which resulted in the individual becoming an interested stockholder is approved by the corporation’s board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder acquired such 15% interest, (ii) upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation at the time the transaction commenced, or (iii) at or after the date the person becomes an interested stockholder, the business combination is approved by a majority of the board of directors of the corporation and an affirmative

Control Share Acquisition
Statute
Under Nevada law, an acquiring person who acquires a controlling interest in an issuing corporation is prohibited from exercise voting rights on any control shares unless such voting rights are conferred by a majority vote of the disinterested stockholders of the issuing corporation at a special or annual meeting of stockholders.  Unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation or the bylaws, if the control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person acquires control shares with a majority or more of all the voting power, any stockholder, other than the acquiring person, who does not vote in favor of authorizing voting rights for the control shares is entitled to dissent and demand payment of the fair value of his or her shares.
 
A controlling interest means the ownership of outstanding voting shares of an issuing corporation sufficient  to enable the acquiring person, directly or indirectly and individually or in association with others, to exercise: (i) one-fifth or more but less than one-third; (ii) one-third or more but less than a majority; or (iii) a majority or more, of all the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors.  Control shares means those outstanding voting shares of an issuing corporation which an acquiring person: (a) acquires in an
 
Delaware’s control share acquisition statute generally provides that shares acquired in a “control share acquisition” will not possess any voting rights unless either the board of directors approves the acquisition or such voting rights are approved by a majority of the corporation’s voting shares, excluding interested shares. Interested shares are those held by a corporation’s officers and inside directors and by the acquiring party. A “control share acquisition” is an acquisition, directly or indirectly, by any person of ownership of, or the power to direct the exercise of voting power with respect to, issued and outstanding “control shares” of a publicly held Delaware corporation. “Control shares” are shares that, except for Delaware’s control share acquisition statute, would have voting power that, when added to all other shares that can be voted by the acquiring party, would entitle the acquiring party, immediately after the acquisition of such shares, directly or indirectly, to exercise voting power in the election of directors within any of the following ranges: (1) at least 20% but less than 33 1/3% of all voting power; (2) at least 33 1/3% but less than a majority of all voting power; or (3) a majority or more of all voting power.

Taxes and Fees
Nevada charges corporations incorporated in Nevada nominal annual corporate fees based on the value of the corporation’s authorized stock with a maximum fee of $35,000, as well as a $200 business license fee, and does not impose any franchise taxes on corporations.
 
Delaware imposes annual franchise tax fees on all corporations incorporated in Delaware. The annual fee ranges from a nominal fee to a maximum of $180,000, based on an equation consisting of the number of shares authorized, the number of shares outstanding and the net assets of the corporation.

Not Addressed in Articles of Incorporation
The Certificate of Incorporation states that the Company shall indemnify, advance expenses, and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, any person (a “Covered Person”) who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the Company or, while a director or officer of the Company, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another Company or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred by such Covered Person.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except for claims for indemnification (following the final disposition of such Proceeding) or advancement of expenses not paid in full, the Company shall be required to indemnify a Covered Person in connection with a Proceeding (or

The Delaware Chancery Court is widely regarded as the country’s preeminent business court, with experienced jurists who have deep understanding of Delaware corporate law and long standing precedent regarding corporations’ governance.  The inclusion of the provision in the Certificate of Incorporation designating the Delaware Chancery Court as the forum for actions against the Company,  may make it more difficult for small stockholders that reside in states other than Delaware to initiate suits against the Company or any director, officer or employee of the Company

CORPORATE ACTION #3
6 FOR 1 FORWARD SPLIT OF THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK ISSUED AND
OUTSTANDING

As approved unanimously by the Board and by the Consenting Shareholders consent on November 30 , 2012, the Company’s management is authorized and directed to implement a Forward Split of our Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Record Date on the basis of six (6) post-split shares for every one (1) pre-split share.  The effective date of the Forward Split will be the later of:  (i) twenty days following the date of the mailing of this Information Statement; or (ii) FINRA’s approval of the Forward Split (the “Effective Date”).

Reasons for Forward Stock Split

The primary objective of the Forward Split is to increase the liquidity of the Common Stock.  The Board believes that the Forward Split would improve the liquidity of the Common Stock and better enable the Company to raise funds.  The Board believes that improved liquidity may encourage investor interest and improve the marketability of the Common Stock to a broader range of investors, and thus improve liquidity.  Once we implement the Forward Spit, there is no assurance that the marketability of our Common Stock and thus the liquidity of our Common Stock will improve after the Forward Split.  There is no guarantee to stockholders that the Common Stock will have any improved liquidity or will reach or sustain any price level in the future, and it is possible the proposed Forward Split will have no lasting impact on the liquidity of our Common Stock or any fund raising efforts undertaken by the Company.
 
Material Effects of Forward Split

The Forward Split will not affect the registration of our Common Stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor will it change our periodic reporting and other obligations thereunder.  The number of stockholders of record will not be affected by the Forward Split.  The number of shares of our Common Stock under the articles of incorporation and the Delaware Certificate of Incorporation will remain the same following the Effective Date of the Forward Split.  The number of shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Effective Date will be increased following the Effective Date of the Forward Split in accordance with the following formula:  every one (1) share of our Common Stock owned by a stockholder will automatically be changed into and become six (6) new shares of our Common Stock.  Any shares issued and outstanding after the Effective Date would be unaffected.  In addition, there shall be no change in each stockholder’s percentage of ownership in the Company as a result of the Forward Split.

Procedure for Effecting Exchange of Stock Certificates

Commencing on the Effective Date, each certificate evidencing shares of the Common Stock will be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of the increased number of shares of Common Stock resulting from the Forward Split. We will obtain a new CUSIP number for the Common Stock at the time of the Forward Split. As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, stockholders should contact
 
 
22

 
our transfer agent, VStock Transfer, Yoel Goldfeder, Phone: 212-363-0825 to arrange to surrender their certificates representing shares of pre-Forward Split Common Stock in exchange for certificates representing shares of post-Forward Split Common Stock. No new certificates will be issued to a stockholder until that stockholder has surrendered the stockholder's outstanding certificate(s) to our transfer agent.
 
STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE.

Fractional Shares

No fractional shares of post-Forward Split Common Stock will be issued to any stockholder in connection with the Forward Split. In order to avoid the expense and inconvenience of issuing and transferring fractional shares of Common Stock to stockholders who would otherwise be entitled to receive fractional shares of Common Stock following the Forward Split, any fractional shares which result from the Forward Split will be rounded to the next whole share.

Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Forward Split

The following is a summary of certain material federal income tax consequences of the Forward Split. It does not purport to be a complete discussion of all of the possible federal income tax consequences of the Forward Split and is included for general information only. Further, it does not address any state, local or foreign income or other tax consequences. Also, it does not address the tax consequences to holders that are subject to special tax rules, such as banks, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, personal holding companies, foreign entities, non-resident alien individuals, broker-dealers and tax-exempt entities. The discussion is based on the provisions of the United States federal income tax law as of the date hereof, which is subject to change retroactively as well as prospectively. This summary also assumes that the shares of common stock were, prior to the Forward Split, and will be, after the Forward Split, held as a capital asset,as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (i.e., generally, property held for investment). The tax treatment of a stockholder may vary depending upon the particular facts and circumstances of such stockholder. Each stockholder is urged to consult with such stockholders own tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences of the Forward Split.
 
No gain or loss should be recognized by a stockholder upon such stockholders exchange of pre-Forward Split shares of common stock for post-Forward Split shares of common stock pursuant to the Forward Split. The aggregate tax basis of the new shares of common stock received in the Forward Split will be the same as the stockholders aggregate tax basis in the pre-Forward Split shares of common stock exchanged therefor. The stockholders holding period for the post- Forward Split shares will include the period during which the stockholder held the pre-Forward Split shares of common stock surrendered in the Forward Split.

TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH TREASURY DEPARTMENT CIRCULAR 230, STOCKHOLDERS ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED THAT: (A) ANY DISCUSSION OF FEDERAL TAX ISSUES IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT IS NOT INTENDED OR WRITTEN TO BE RELIED UPON, AND CANNOT BE RELIED UPON BY STOCKHOLDERS FOR THE PURPOSE OF AVOIDING PENALTIES THAT MAY BE IMPOSED ON STOCKHOLDERS UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE; (B) SUCH DISCUSSION IS INCLUDED HEREIN BY US IN CONNECTION WITH OUR PROMOTION OR MARKETING (WITHIN THE MEANING OF CIRCULAR 230) OF THE TRANSACTIONS OR MATTERS ADDRESSED HEREIN; AND (C) STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD SEEK ADVICE BASED ON THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES FROM AN INDEPENDENT TAX ADVISOR.



 
23

 
 
Our view regarding the tax consequences of the Forward Split is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or the courts. Accordingly, each stockholder should consult with his or her own tax advisor with respect to all of the potential tax consequences to him or her of the Forward Split.

INFORMATION TO BE FURNISHED BY ITEMS OF SCHEDULE 14A


Dissenters’ and Appraisal Rights
 
Any stockholders who vote shares against the Reincorporation may, under certain conditions, become entitled to be paid for his or her shares of the Corporation's capital stock in lieu of receiving shares of the Delaware Corp.  Under Nevada Law Section 92A.380, you, the Corporation's stockholder, have the right to dissent from the Reincorporation and demand payment of the fair value of your shares of the Corporation's capital stock and are urged to read the full text of the Nevada dissenters' rights statute, which is reprinted in its entirety and attached as Appendix F to this Information Statement. Under Nevada Law, “fair value” is defined with respects to dissenter's shares, as “the value of the shares immediately before the effectuation of the corporate action to which he objects, excluding any appreciation or depreciation in anticipation of the corporate action unless exclusion would be inequitable.”

The following is a brief summary of the relevant portions of Nevada Law Sections 92A.300 to 92A.500, attached hereto in its entirety as Appendix F to this Information Statement, which sets forth the procedure for exercising dissenters' rights with respect to the change in domicile and demanding statutory appraisal rights. This discussion and Appendix F should be reviewed carefully by you if you wish to exercise statutory dissenters' rights or wish to preserve the right to do so, because failure to strictly comply with any of the procedural requirements of the Nevada dissenters' rights statute may result in a termination or waiver of dissenters' rights under the Nevada dissenters' rights statute. If you elect to assert dissenters' rights in connection with the reincorporation merger, you must comply with the following procedures:  (1) within 30 days after the effective time of the Reincorporation, we will give written notice of the effective time of the change in domicile by certified mail to each stockholder. The notice provided by us will also state where demand for payment must be sent and where share certificates shall be deposited, among other information. Within the time period set forth in the notice, which may not be less than 30 days nor more than 60 days following the date notice is delivered, the dissenting stockholder must make a written demand on us for payment of the fair value of his or her shares and deposit his or her share certificates in accordance with the notice.

Within 30 days after the receipt of demand for the fair value of the dissenters' shares, we will pay each dissenter who complied with the required procedures the amount it estimates to be the fair value of the dissenters' shares, plus accrued interest. Additionally, we shall mail to each dissenting stockholder a statement as to how fair value was calculated, a statement as to how interest was calculated, a statement of the dissenters' right to demand payment of fair value under Nevada law, and a copy of the relevant provisions of Nevada law. A dissenting stockholder, within 30 days following receipt of payment for the shares, may send us a notice containing such stockholder's own estimate of fair value and accrued interest, and demand payment for that amount less the amount received pursuant to our payment of fair value to such stockholder. If a demand for payment remains unsettled, we will petition the court to determine fair value and accrued interest. If we fail to commence an action within 60 days following the receipt of the stockholder's demand, we will pay to the stockholder the amount demanded by the stockholder in the stockholder's notice containing the stockholder's estimate of fair value and accrued interest. All dissenting stockholders, whether residents of Nevada or not, must be made parties to the action and the court will render judgment for the fair value of their shares. Each party must be served with the petition. The judgment shall include payment for the amount, if any, by which the court finds the fair value of such shares, plus interest, exceeds the amount already paid. If the court finds that the demand of any dissenting stockholder for payment was arbitrary, vexatious or otherwise not in good faith, the court may assess costs, including reasonable fees of counsel and experts, against such stockholder. Otherwise the costs and expenses of bringing the action will be determined by the court. In addition, reasonable fees

 
25

 
and expenses of counsel and experts may be assessed against us if the court finds that it did not substantially comply with the requirements of the Nevada dissenters' rights statute or that it acted arbitrarily, vexatiously, or not in good faith with respect to the rights granted to dissenters under Nevada law.

The foregoing summary of the relevant portions of Nevada Law Sections 92A.300 to 92A.500 is not intended to be a complete statement of the law pertaining to dissenters’ rights thereunder, which, is attached hereto in its entirety as Appendix F

Effect of Conversion.
 
a.         Upon the Effective Date, the name of the Resulting Company will be “AntriaBio, Inc.”
 
b.         Upon the Effective Date, by virtue of the Conversion and without any further action on the part of the Company or its stockholders, the Resulting Company shall, for all purposes of the laws of the State of Delaware, be deemed to be the same entity as the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date.  Upon the Effective Date, by virtue of the Conversion and without any further action on the part of the Company or its stockholders, for all purposes of the laws of the State of Delaware, all of the rights, privileges and powers of the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date, and all property, real, personal and mixed, and all debts due to the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date, as well as all other things and causes of action belonging to the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date, shall remain vested in the Resulting Company and shall be the property of the Resulting Company and the title to any real property vested by deed or otherwise in the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date shall not revert or be in any way impaired by reason of the Conversion; but all rights of creditors and all liens upon any property of the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date shall be preserved unimpaired, and all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date shall remain attached to the Resulting Company upon the Effective Date, and may be enforced against the Resulting Company to the same extent as if said debts, liabilities and duties had originally been incurred or contracted by the Resulting Company in its capacity as a corporation of the State of Delaware.  The rights, privileges, powers and interests in property of the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date, as well as the debts, liabilities and duties of the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date, shall not be deemed, as a consequence of the Conversion, to have been transferred to the Resulting Company upon the Effective Date for any purpose of the laws of the State of Delaware.
 
c.         The Conversion shall not be deemed to affect any obligations or liabilities of the Company incurred prior to the Conversion or the personal liability of any person incurred prior to the Conversion.
 
3.           Taxes.  The Company intends for the Conversion to constitute a tax-free reorganization qualifying under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  Accordingly, neither the Company nor any of its stockholders should recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the Conversion.

7.           Further Assurances.  If, at any time after the Effective Date, the Resulting Company shall determine or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, assignments, agreements, documents or assurances or any other acts or things are necessary, desirable or proper, consistent with the terms of the Plan, (a) to vest, perfect or confirm, of record or otherwise, in the Resulting Company its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, immunities, powers, purposes, franchises, properties or assets of the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date, or (b) to otherwise carry out the purposes of the Plan, the Resulting Company and its officers and directors are hereby authorized to solicit in the name of the Resulting Company any third-party consents or other documents required to be delivered by any third-party, to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Resulting Company all such deeds, bills of sale, assignments, agreements, documents and assurances and do, in the name and on behalf of the Resulting Company, all such other acts and things necessary, desirable or proper to vest, perfect or confirm its right, title or interest in, to or under any of the rights, privileges, immunities, powers, purposes, franchises, properties or assets of the Company existing immediately prior to the Effective Date and otherwise to carry out the purposes of the Plan.

ARTICLE I — MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS
 
1.1           Place of Meetings.  Meetings of the stockholders of AntriaBio, Inc. (the “Company”) shall be held at any place determined by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”).  The Board may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting of the stockholders shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as authorized by Section 211(a)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”).  In the absence of any such designation or determination, the stockholders’ meetings shall be held at the Company’s principal executive office.
 
1.2           Annual Meeting.  An annual meeting of the stockholders shall be held for the election of directors at such date and time as may be designated by resolution of the Board from time to time, which date shall be within 13 months of the last annual meeting of stockholders. Any other proper business may be transacted at the annual meeting.
 
1.3           Special Meeting.  A special meeting of the stockholders may be called at any time by the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer or by one or more of the stockholders holding shares in the aggregate entitled to cast not less than 20% of the votes at that meeting.
 
A special meeting of stockholders can be called for any purpose permissible under the DGCL, including but not limited to, calling a meeting for the election of directors, should the Board fail to hold an annual meeting for such purpose within 13 months of the last annual meeting of stockholders pursuant to Section 1.2, or calling a meeting for the removal and appointment of directors pursuant to Section 2.13.
 
If any person(s) other than the Board calls a special meeting, the request shall:
 
(i)           be in writing;
 
(ii)           specify the time of such meeting and the general nature of the business proposed to be transacted; and
 
(iii)           be delivered personally or sent by registered mail or by facsimile transmission to the Board, the President, the Chief Executive Officer or the Secretary of the Company.
 
The officer(s) receiving the request shall cause notice to be promptly given to the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, in accordance with these bylaws, that a meeting will be held at the time requested by the person or persons calling the meeting.  No business may be transacted at such special meeting other than the business specified in such notice to the stockholders.  Nothing contained in this

E-1
 
 

 
paragraph of this Section 1.3 shall be construed as limiting, fixing, or affecting the time when a meeting of the stockholders called by action of the Board may be held.
 
1.4           Notice of Stockholders’ Meetings.  Whenever the stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting shall be given which shall state the place, if any, date and hour of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which the stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, if such date is different from the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called.  Except as otherwise provided in the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, the written notice of any meeting of the stockholders shall be given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting.
 
1.5           Quorum.  Except as otherwise provided by law, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, at each meeting of the stockholders the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of shares of stock having a majority of the votes which could be cast by the holders of all outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote at the meeting shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute a quorum.  Where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series is required, a majority of the outstanding shares of such class or series or classes or series, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter, except as otherwise provided by law, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws.
 
If, however, such quorum is not present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then either (i) the chairperson of the meeting, or (ii) the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have the power to adjourn the meeting from time to time, in the manner provided in Section 1.6 of these bylaws, until a quorum is present or represented.
 
1.6           Adjourned Meeting; Notice.  Any meeting of the stockholders, annual or special, may adjourn from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time, place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which the stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken.  At the adjourned meeting, the Company may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting.  If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.  If after the adjournment a new record date for the stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting in accordance with Section 213(a) of the DGCL and Section 1.10 of these bylaws, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.
 
1.7           Conduct of Business.  The chairperson of any meeting of the stockholders shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation on the manner of voting and the conduct of business.  The Secretary shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in his or her absence the chairperson of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.
 
1.8           Voting.  The stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.10 of these bylaws, subject to Section 217 (relating to voting rights of fiduciaries, pledgors and joint owners of stock) and Section 218 (relating to voting trusts and other voting agreements) of the DGCL.

E-2
 
 

 
Except as may be otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation, each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders shall be entitled to one vote for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder which has voting power upon the matter in question.  Voting at meetings of the stockholders need not be by written ballot and, unless otherwise required by law, need not be conducted by inspectors of election unless so determined by the holders of shares of stock having a majority of the votes which could be cast by the holders of all outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote thereon which are present in person or by proxy at such meeting.  If authorized by the Board, such requirement of a written ballot shall be satisfied by a ballot submitted by electronic transmission (as defined in Section 7.2 of these bylaws), provided that any such electronic transmission shall either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder or proxy holder.
 
Except as otherwise required by law, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders.  Except as otherwise required by law, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.  Where a separate vote by a class or series or classes or series is required, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of shares of such class or series or classes or series present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting shall be the act of such class or series or classes or series, except as otherwise provided by law, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws.
 
1.9           Stockholder Action by Written Consent Without a Meeting.  Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation, any action required by the DGCL to be taken at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders of a corporation, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice, and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.
 
An electronic transmission (as defined in Section 7.2) consenting to an action to be taken and transmitted by a stockholder or proxy holder, or by a person or persons authorized to act for a stockholder or proxy holder, shall be deemed to be written, signed and dated for purposes of this Section 1.9, provided that any such electronic transmission sets forth or is delivered with information from which the Company can determine (i) that the electronic transmission was transmitted by the stockholder or proxy holder or by a person or persons authorized to act for the stockholder or proxy holder and (ii) the date on which such stockholder or proxy holder or authorized person or persons transmitted such electronic transmission.
 
In the event that the Board shall have instructed the officers of the Company to solicit the vote or written consent of the stockholders of the Company, an electronic transmission of a stockholder written consent given pursuant to such solicitation may be delivered to the Secretary or the President of the Company or to a person designated by the Secretary or the President.  The Secretary or the President of the Company or a designee of the Secretary or the President shall cause any such written consent by electronic transmission to be reproduced in paper form and inserted into the corporate records.
 
Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for notice of such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to the Company as provided in Section 228 of the DGCL.  In the
 

E-3
 
 

 
event that the action which is consented to is such as would have required the filing of a certificate under any provision of the DGCL, if such action had been voted on by the stockholders at a meeting thereof, the certificate filed under such provision shall state, in lieu of any statement required by such provision concerning any vote of the stockholders, that written consent has been given in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL.
 
1.10           Record Dates.  In order that the Company may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of the stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board and which record date shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting.  If the Board so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination.
 
If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held.
 
A determination of the stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for determination of the stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for the stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to vote in accordance with the provisions of Section 213 of the DGCL and this Section 1.10 at the adjourned meeting.

5.2           Indemnification of Directors and Officers in Actions by or in the Right of the Company.  Subject to the other provisions of this Article V, the Company shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as now or hereinafter in effect, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was a director or officer of the Company serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust

or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company; except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
 
5.3           Successful Defense.  To the extent that a present or former director or officer of the Company has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding described in Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 of these bylaws, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise determined pursuant to Section 5.8 of these bylaws, no advance shall be made by the Company to an officer of the Company (except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the Company, in which event this paragraph shall not apply) in any Proceeding if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such Proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (ii) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company.

ARTICLE VII — MANNER OF GIVING NOTICE AND WAIVER
 
7.1           Notice of Stockholder Meetings.  Notice of any meeting of the stockholders, if mailed, is given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at such stockholder’s address as it appears on the Company’s records.  An affidavit of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company or of the transfer agent or other agent of the Company that the notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

E-14
 
 

 
7.2           Notice by Electronic Transmission.  Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to the stockholders pursuant to the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, any notice to the stockholders given by the Company under any provision of the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given.  Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Company.  Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if:
 
(i)           the Company is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Company in accordance with such consent; and
 
(ii)          such inability becomes known to the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice.
 
However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.
 
Any notice given pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be deemed given:
 
(iii)         if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;
 
(iv)         if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice;
 
(v)          if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of (A) such posting and (B) the giving of such separate notice; and
 
(vi)         if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder.
 
An affidavit of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or of the transfer agent or other agent of the Company that the notice has been given by a form of electronic transmission shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.
 
An “electronic transmission” means any form of communication, not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved, and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such a recipient through an automated process.
 
Notice by a form of electronic transmission shall not apply to Sections 164, 296, 311, 312 or 324 of the DGCL.
 
7.3           Notice to Stockholders Sharing an Address.  Except as otherwise prohibited under the DGCL, without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to the stockholders, any notice to the stockholders given by the Company under the provisions of the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws shall be effective if given by a single written notice to the stockholders who share an address if consented to by the stockholders at that address to whom such notice is given.  Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Company.  Any stockholder who fails to object in writing to the Company, within 60 days of having been given written
 
E-15
 
 

 
notice by the Company of its intention to send the single notice, shall be deemed to have consented to receiving such single written notice.
 
7.4           Notice to Person with Whom Communication is Unlawful.  Whenever notice is required to be given, under the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, to any person with whom communication is unlawful, the giving of such notice to such person shall not be required and there shall be no duty to apply to any governmental authority or agency for a license or permit to give such notice to such person.  Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to any such person with whom communication is unlawful shall have the same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given.  In the event that the action taken by the Company is such as to require the filing of a certificate under the DGCL, the certificate shall state, if such is the fact and if notice is required, that notice was given to all persons entitled to receive notice except such persons with whom communication is unlawful.
 
7.5           Waiver of Notice.  Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, a written waiver, signed by the person entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time of the event for which notice is to be given, shall be deemed equivalent to notice.  Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.  Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission unless so required by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws.

8.3           Annual Report.  The Company shall cause an annual report to be sent to the stockholders of the Company to the extent required by applicable law.  If and so long as there are fewer than 100 holders of record of the Company’s shares, the requirement of sending an annual report to the stockholders of the Company is expressly waived (to the extent permitted under applicable law).
 
8.4           Offices. The Company may have offices at such places, both within and without the State of Delaware, as the Board from time to time shall determine or the business of the Company may require
 
8.5           Books and RecordsAny records maintained by the Company in the regular course of its business, including its stock ledger, books of account and minute books, may be maintained on any information storage device or method; provided that the records so kept can be converted into clearly legible paper form within a reasonable time.  The Company shall so convert any records so kept upon the request of any person entitled to inspect such records pursuant to applicable law.

ARTICLE IX — AMENDMENTS
 
These bylaws may be adopted, amended or repealed by the stockholders entitled to vote.  However, the Company may, in its certificate of incorporation, confer the power to adopt, amend or repeal bylaws upon the directors.  The fact that such power has been so conferred upon the directors shall not divest the stockholders of the power, nor limit their power to adopt, amend or repeal bylaws.
 
The Board may not alter or repeal bylaws adopted or amended by the stockholders, including any bylaw amendment adopted by stockholders which specifies the votes that shall be necessary for the election of directors and (ii) no bylaws shall be adopted by the Board which shall require more than a majority of the voting shares for a quorum at a stockholder meeting, or more than a majority of the stockholder votes for an action of the stockholders at a meeting of the stockholders.

1.  A dissenter paid pursuant to NRS 92A.460 who is dissatisfied with the amount of the payment may notify the subject corporation in writing of the dissenter’s own estimate of the fair value of his or her shares and the amount of interest due, and demand payment of such estimate, less any payment pursuant to NRS 92A.460.

3.  The subject corporation shall make all dissenters, whether or not residents of Nevada, whose demands remain unsettled, parties to the proceeding as in an action against their shares.

5.  Each dissenter who is made a party to the proceeding is entitled to a judgment:
(a) For the amount, if any, by which the court finds the fair value of the dissenter’s shares, plus interest, exceeds the amount paid by the subject corporation; or

NRS 92A.500  Assessment of costs and fees in certain legal proceedings.

The court shall assess the costs against the subject corporation, except that the court may assess costs against all or some of the dissenters, in amounts the court finds equitable, to the extent the court finds the dissenters acted arbitrarily, vexatiously or not in good faith in demanding payment.
2.  The court may also assess the fees and expenses of the counsel and experts for the respective parties, in amounts the court finds equitable:
(a) Against the subject corporation and in favor of all dissenters if the court finds the subject corporation did not substantially comply with the requirements of NRS 92A.300 to 92A.500, inclusive; or
(b) Against either the subject corporation or a dissenter in favor of any other party, if the court finds that the party against whom the fees and expenses are assessed acted arbitrarily, vexatiously or not in good faith with respect to the rights provided by NRS 92A.300 to 92A.500, inclusive.
3.  If the court finds that the services of counsel for any dissenter were of substantial benefit to other dissenters similarly situated, and that the fees for those services should not be assessed against the subject corporation, the court may award to those counsel reasonable fees to be paid out of the amounts awarded to the dissenters who were benefited.
4.  In a proceeding commenced pursuant to NRS 92A.460, the court may assess the costs against the subject corporation, except that the court may assess costs against all or some of the dissenters who are parties to the proceeding, in amounts the court finds equitable, to the extent the court finds that such parties did not act in good faith in instituting the proceeding.
5.  To the extent the subject corporation fails to make a required payment pursuant to NRS 92A.460, 92A.470 or 92A.480, the dissenter may bring a cause of action directly for the amount owed and, to the extent the dissenter prevails, is entitled to recover all expenses of the suit.
6.  This section does not preclude any party in a proceeding commenced pursuant to NRS 92A.460 or 92A.490 from applying the provisions of N.R.C.P. 68 or NRS 17.115.
