CURRENT INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY

 

HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT

 

Medical International Technology, Inc., (hereinafter referred to as “We,” “Us,” the “Company”, or the “Registrant”) is a publicly traded company whose shares trade on the OTC Pink (the “OTC Pink”) under the trading symbol “MDLH”. The Company was incorporated in the State of Colorado on July 19, 1999 under the name Posteralley.com, Inc, and changed its name to Medical International Technology, Inc., on September 24, 2002,

 

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

Currently, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Medical International Technologies (MIT Canada). Inc., a Canadian company, specializes in production, marketing and sale of needle-free jet injector products designed for human and animal applications, for single and mass injections.

BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

 

The Company concentrates its activities in the medical and veterinary sectors, in particular, in the field of equipment and instrumentation. Our strategy is to build good, reliable and cost effective products, and to seek and establish strategic alliances with different pharmaceutical companies and manufacturers to ensure good distribution channels for its products. We currently promote and sell our products in over 30 countries, including the United States of America, and we continue to exert every effort and to use all available resources to promote our products and to open new markets for our technology.

 

Our long-term goal is to become one of the leading suppliers of needle-free injection systems to the health industry worldwide. We have been focusing our business development efforts on new and existing companies to distribute our unique needle-free products in human and animal applications in the international market. We have collaborated and are still collaborating with different pharmaceutical corporations that could lead to long-term agreements. We are actively pursuing additional opportunities in the global market. However, finalizing long term agreements is a long process that could take even longer to negotiate given the current difficult global economic conditions.

 

The Company’s major source of revenues is from sales of its Needle-Free products for Human and Animal application. Although the Company has revenue from operations, those revenues have not been sufficient to maintain operations. As a result, in order to sustain operations, the Company has been required to seek equity and debt financing, and has been particularly dependent on advances from related parties. There are no agreements, assurances or commitments to continue providing these advances.

RECORD DATE

 

Shareholders of record at the close of business on March 31, 2017, are entitled to notice of the meeting and to vote at the meeting. As of the Record Date, 84,304,627 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Common Stock”) were issued and entitled to vote at the Meeting.

 

VOTING

 

As of March 31, 2017, the Company has outstanding 84,304,627 shares of $0.0001 par value common stock issued and outstanding which are held by a total of approximately 93 shareholders of record.

 

In accordance with the provisions of the Colorado Business Corporations Act (the “CBCA” or the “Act”) the Company will prepare a list of shareholders as of the Record Date. In accordance with the voting rights attached to the common shares, each shareholder named in the list will be entitled to vote on all matters coming before the meeting for which such shareholder is entitled to vote, the shares shown opposite his or her name on the list, except to the extent that (i) the shareholder has transferred his or her shares after the Record Date; and (ii) the transferee of those shares produces properly endorsed share certificates or otherwise establishes that he or she owns the shares and demands, not later than 10 days before the Meeting, that his or her name be included in the list of shareholders before the Meeting, in which case the transferee will be entitled to vote his or her shares at the Meeting.

 

The failure of a shareholder to receive the Notice of Meeting does not deprive him or her of the right to vote at the Meeting.

 

Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Meeting will be tabulated by the Company’s CEO, who will serve as the Inspector of Elections (the “Inspector”). The Inspector will also determine whether or not a quorum is present. In general, the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is present is required under the Act for approval of proposals presented to shareholders. The Company’s Bylaws and the Act provide that a quorum consists of the holders of a majority of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote and present or represented by proxy at the meeting.

 

The Company is not soliciting proxies for the Meeting because it has determined that it is not necessary to do so in order to establish a quorum or to have sufficient votes to approve the proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation and the reelection of the Company’s sole director. Company management has received assurances from shareholders holding approximately ___% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock indicating that they expect to attend the shareholder meeting in person or by proxy and to vote their shares in favor of the proposed actions.

 

The Inspector will treat express abstentions as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, but will not treat express abstentions as votes in favor of approving any matter submitted to shareholders for a vote.

 

The Company believes that the tabulation procedures to be followed by the Inspector are consistent with the provisions of the CBCA concerning voting of shares and determination of a quorum.

MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

 

PROPOSAL ONE

 

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

 

A board consisting of one (1) director is to be elected at the Meeting. The nominee is Karim Menassa, who is currently the sole member of the board. It is not expected that the nominee will be unable or will decline to serve as a director. The term of office of each person elected as a director will continue until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until a successor has been elected and qualified.

 

Vote Required; Recommendation of the Board of Directors

 

With respect to the election of directors, the candidate receiving the highest number of votes shall be elected to the Company’s Board of Directors. An abstention will have the same effect as a vote withheld for the election of directors.

 

The Board recommends a vote in favor of the nominee, Karim Menassa

 

PROPOSAL TWO

 

AMENDMENT OF THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

 

The Board of Directors has unanimously approved, and recommends for shareholder approval, the amendment of the Articles of Incorporation to add the following provision specifically authorizing the shareholders to approve actions by non-unanimous written consent in lieu of a meeting:

 

Any action required or permitted to be taken at a shareholders’ meeting may be taken without a meeting if shareholders holding shares 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 of the sharees entitled to vote thereon were present and voted consent to such action in writing.

 

Vote Required; Recommendation of the Board of Directors

 

Approval of the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented, in person or by proxy, and voting at the Meeting, which shares voting affirmatively also constitute at least a majority of the required quorum. In the event the shareholders do not approve the adoption of the amendment of the Articles of Incorporation, the Board of Directors will reconsider the amendment.

 

  - 6 -  

 

 

Reasons for Amendment of the Articles of Incorporation

 

A small group of shareholders currently owns more than a majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. As a result, these controlling shareholders are in a position to approve any corporate action which is required or permitted to be submitted to the shareholders for approval. However, because of the fact that the Company’s existing Articles of Incorporation do not authorize shareholders to take or approve action by written consent in lieu of a meeting unless the consent is signed by all of the Company’s shareholders, the controlling shareholders are restricted in their ability to take action. Since the Company currently has more than 600 beneficial owners of its shares, there is no practical way to get unanimous written consent from the shareholders. As a result, the only way for an action to be approved is for the Company to go through the time and expense of holding a formal meeting of its shareholders.

 

The Board of Directors is recommending that the shareholders approve the proposed amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation in order to simplify the process of obtaining shareholder approval of proposed corporate actions, and thereby minimize the associated cost and expense of obtaining such approval. The proposed amendment would authorize Company shareholders to take action by written consent in lieu of a meeting provided that shareholders holding more than a majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding sign a written consent approving the action. Unanimous written consent from all of the Company’s shareholders would no longer be required.

 

Under the circumstances, the Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Company to approve the proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation. There is no legitimate corporate purpose that is served by requiring the Company to incur the time and expense of calling a shareholder meeting to approve any proposed corporate action when the outcome of the vote is known in advance because a small group of controlling shareholders controls the decision as a result of its ownership of a majority of the issued and outstanding shares.

 

Risks Associated With Amendment of the Articles of Incorporation

 

The proposed amendment to the Articles of Incorporation may not result in the benefits described above under the heading “Reasons for Amendment of the Articles of Incorporation.” Although a small group of shareholders together owns a controlling interest in the Company, there is no single shareholder who owns more than a majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock and the identity of the group of controlling shareholders is likely to change over time. Therefore, even following adoption of the proposed amendment, there is no assurance that it will be possible for corporate actions to be approved by non-unanimous written consent of the shareholders in lieu of a meeting.

 

Dissenter’s Rights

 

The Colorado Business Corporation Act does not provide for dissenter’s rights of appraisal in connection with the above described actions.

 

Board of Directors Recommendation

 

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “ FOR ” THIS PROPOSAL
