Item 3.02.     Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
 
On June 24, 2010, we sold an aggregate of 40,802,198 newly-issued shares of our common stock to 16 unaffiliated, non-U.S. investors, pursuant to separate stock subscription agreements (the form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this report).  We received total gross proceeds of approximately $262,679 in consideration for the sale of such shares.  We have applied all of these proceeds to the repayment of approximately $348,000 in debt owed to our former President and Chief Executive Officer, Deanie J. Underwood. She has agreed to forgive the remaining debt in consideration for the payment of these proceeds. We completed the sale of the newly-issued shares in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D and Regulation S promulgated thereunder.  No broker-dealer or other financial intermediary participated in the transaction.
 
Following the transaction described above, as of June 24, 2010, we have 50,000,000 outstanding shares of common stock.  No other shares of capital stock, warrants, stock options or other securities are outstanding.  We intend to amend our articles of incorporation to increase the total number of shares of common stock that we are authorized to issue from 50,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares of common stock to accommodate future transactions, although we have no current agreements or commitments with respect to any such transactions.
 
 
Item 5.01.   Changes in Control of Registrant.
 
On June 24, 2010, prior to the issuance of the newly-issued shares described above, Deanie J. Underwood, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Bradley C. Underwood, a significant shareholder of our company, privately sold 5,358,242 shares of our common stock, constituting approximately 74.4% of our then outstanding shares, to certain unaffiliated, non-U.S. purchasers pursuant to separate stock purchase agreements (the form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report).  As a result of the privately-negotiated sales, a change of control of our company occurred.
 
The unaffiliated purchasers purchased the shares for a total of approximately $100,000 in cash, inclusive of related acquisition costs.  The source of the funding for the cash payment was the general working capital of the various purchasers.
 
The terms of the purchase and sale transactions were as a result of arm’s-length negotiations between us and each of the purchasers.  Neither party had any relationship with the other prior to the transaction.
 
In connection with the change in control, Ms. Underwood, our sole officer, resigned from her positions.  Ms. Underwood also resigned as our sole director, with the resignation to take effect upon compliance by us with the provisions of Section 14(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 14f-1 promulgated thereunder.  Gary S. Ohlbaum, the Group Managing Director of Nourican Trading Ltd., an international investment and advisory firm, was elected a director of our company and appointed to be our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.
 
The business focus of our company was not changed in connection with the transactions described above.
