Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On February 2, 2011, the Registrant entered into a reverse triangular merger by and among HGLB Sub Co. (“SUB CO”), a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant, and Elevate Marketing Group, LLC (“Elevate”), a Utah limited liability company, SUB CO and Elevate being the constituent entities in the merger, whereby the Registrant intends to issue 19,000,000 shares of its 144 restricted common stock (after the completion of a 6:1 forward split) in exchange for 100% of Elevate’s outstanding membership interest. Pursuant to the terms of the merger, SUB CO will be merged with Elevate wherein SUB CO shall cease to exist and Elevate will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Registrant. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, the Merger is anticipated to become effective on February 14, 2011.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, concurrent with the closing of the merger, the Registrant shall declare a forward split on the basis of six (6) shares of common stock to be issued for every one (1) share issued and outstanding. Additionally, the officers and board of directors of the Registrant will resign and appoint Wright Thurston, to serve as Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer, and a Director of the Registrant. Mr. Thurston shall serve as a Director of the Registrant until the next annual meeting of stockholders, or until successors have been elected.

Additionally, the Merger Agreement sets forth conditions that the Registrant shall have obtained a cancellation of 36,000,000 shares of common stock (post 6:1 forward split). After the Merger, it is anticipated that the Registrant will have 24,676,600 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

The Merger with Elevate, upon closing, will provide the Registrant with the ownership of 100% of Elevate, which is a premier digital services provider with an array of IP and wireless residential services. Elevate Broadband offers wireless residential Internet service with up to 10 mbps service. Elevate also offers a fully integrated suite of home security products and services that include Elevate Interactive, a complete home security management system operated online or through a wireless mobile App. Elevate Entertainment is both an IP based TV and Satellite TV service offered in cooperation with DirecTV™ and DISH Network™. Elevate Mobile provides mobile services that offer the latest smart phone technologies.
