"Name Change").
The Company shall declare a stock dividend of its subsidiary, Skreem
entertainment Corporation of one (1) share for each share owned as of the record
date. This means that for every one (1) share owned in the Company, you will be
issued one new share in the subsidiary. The dividend has been declared with a
record date of November 30, 2006, and an effective as soon as possible
thereafter. The Board of Directors has determined that the operations that made
up the Company would be better off in a separate company, with its own goals,
while the Company concentrates its efforts on other media related business.
This Information Statement describing the approval of the Name Change and
Stock Dividend (the "Stockholder Matters") is first being mailed or furnished to
the Company's stockholders on or about December 11, 2005, and such matters shall

OUTSTANDING VOTING SECURITIES
As of November 30, 2006 (the "Record Date"), out of the 75,000,000 shares
of Common Stock authorized there were 29,148,294 shares of Common Stock issued

stockholders. Each share of Common Stock was entitled to one (1) vote.
The Company's Board of Directors approved this action as of November 1,
2006, and recommended that the Articles of Incorporation be amended in order to
effectuate the name change.
The proposed Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to amend the name
of the Corporation to "SKRM Interactive Inc." will be filed with the Delaware
Secretary of State on or about December 1, 2006. If the proposed Amendment were
not adopted by written majority shareholder consent, it would have been
necessary for this action to be considered by the Company's shareholders at a

Amendment.

DESCRIPTION OF THE STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
Approval of the Certificate of Amendment to the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation and related actions.
The Board of Directors (the "Board") by unanimous written consent dated as
of November 1, 2006, and certain stockholders (the "Majority Stockholders"),
owning a majority of issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company
entitled to vote, by written consent dated as of November 1, 2006, approved and
adopted resolutions to amend the Company's Certificate of Incorporation. The
Certificate of Amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, to be
filed on or about November 8, 2006 with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware changed the Company's name to "SKRM Interactive Inc." or such similar
available name, and will not be effective earlier than 20 days after the mailing
of this Information Statement.
Purpose of Proposed Name Change
The Board of Directors has determined that it will be in the best
interests of the shareholders to spin out the current business assets of the
Company into a new subsidiary, to be called Skreem Entertainment Corporation.
Therefore, to avoid having two corporations with the same name, we are amending
the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company to change the name of the
Company to SKRM Interactive Inc. This will better reflect our intention to
concentrate in the interactive game market.
Procedure for the Approval of the Certificate of Amendment to the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation
The elimination of the need for a special meeting of the shareholders to
approve the Amendment occurred when a majority of shares entitled to vote
approved the Name Change on November 1, 2006. In order to eliminate the costs
and management time involved in holding a special meeting and in order to effect
the Amendment as early as possible in order to accomplish the purposes of the
Company, the Board of Directors of the Company voted to utilize the written
consent of the majority shareholders of the Company.
5
Required Approvals Obtained
The Board, by its unanimous written consent (the "Board Consent"), adopted
resolutions approving the Certificate of Amendment to the Company's Certificate
of Incorporation to amend the name of the Corporation to "SKRM Interactive Inc."
On the Record Date, the only issued and outstanding shares of the Company's
capital stock entitled to vote on the proposed amendment were 29,148,294 shares
of the Company's common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"),
of which the Majority Stockholders held in excess of 51% of the total stock
entitled to vote on the proposed amendment. On November 1, 2006, the Majority
Stockholders, by written consent in lieu of a meeting, approved the Certificate
of Amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, a copy of which is
attached to this Information Statement as Exhibit A. No further consents, votes
or proxies are or were necessary to effect the approval of Certificate of
Amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation.
STOCK DIVIDEND OF SUBSIDIARY
The Board of Directors of the Company has declared a dividend, payable in stock,
at the rate of one (1) share for each one (1) share owned of the Company on the
record date in the subsidiary of the Company, to be known as SKREEM
ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION. Effectively, this means that for each one (1) shares
owned in the Company, a shareholder will receive one (1) share in the subsidiary
(the "Dividend Shares"). The Board of Directors of the Company has declared
November 30, 2006, as the record date for this share dividend, with a payment
date as soon as practicable thereafter.
The business of SKREEM ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION ("Skreem"), the new subsidiary
is to locate and promote recording talent.
Skreem is constantly seeking talent for recording and performing. Skreem
employees utilize their industry contacts and experience to locate prospective
music acts, including music groups and individuals, and evaluate these acts to
determine if, from Skreem's perspective, such acts demonstrate the talent
potential to succeed in the music industry.
Upon locating an act that Skreem believes has the potential for success; Skreem
will sign the act to a contract. Upon signing a typical contract, Skreem at its
option will advance funds to the artist to pay for travel, arrange for
performances, schedule public appearances and generally promote the act, and the
act's music, in exchange for a percentage of the revenues generated by the act's
performances and music sales.
Once Skreem has located an act it wishes to promote, Skreem will determine where
to promote the artist. It is Skreem's strategy to promote talent outside of the
United States until the talent has demonstrated the ability to sell music or
tickets to performances. Once an act has gained some level of success abroad,
Skreem intends to promote and market the act in the United States. Skreem
believes that promoting abroad is a viable approach because it costs less
initially, foreign markets are very receptive to American type music acts, and
there is less competition.
6
Distribution
Skreem distributes its acts in two different ways. The first is through concerts
and public appearances. An act will perform and tour playing concerts as
frequently as possible to increase public awareness of their music. An act will
also make public appearances at retail centers, public places and other events
also to increase the act's public awareness.
The second way the act gains publicity is through licensing and sales of the
act's music. Skreem does not sell records or other music media, however, it does
license master recordings to other organizations which distribute the recordings
in various media. Skreem receives royalty payments pursuant to licensing
agreements, which are a percentage of revenues from distribution of the
recordings.
Skreem's artists' music is currently being distributed by various organizations
throughout Europe and in other countries.
Licensing
From time to time Skreem enters into licensing agreements with music production
and distribution companies. The license agreements typically grant the
production and distribution company rights to a music single or all of an act's
music in a particular country or region with a term of three to fifteen years.
The production or distribution company can then distribute the music in record
or cd format, mp3, ringtone, or any other music media licensed in the agreement.
Skreem typically receives royalties of a negotiated percentage between 18% and
75% of sales of the production and distribution company's published dealer price
less certain packaging deductions. In addition, Skreem shall receive between 18%
and 75% of net royalty receipts received by in the particular nation or region.
In connection with the license agreement, Skreem may receive a cash advance.
Exclusive Artist Recording Agreements
At March 31, 2006, Skreem had entered into long-term Exclusive Artist Recording
Agreements with six artists, which include the three Artists of "3rdWish", the
Artist "PatMoe", the Artist "Precious Dawn Francis" and the Artist "Willie
Bivins, Jr." also known as "Willie Will" for the purpose of engaging the
exclusive personal services of the Artists for making master sound recordings
for distribution in any medium. The territory for the agreements shall be
worldwide. All master recordings made by the Artists during the terms of the
agreements shall be recorded by the Artists on Skreem's behalf, and all
phonograph records and related performances shall be the entire property of the
Company; Skreem shall have the right to secure sound recording copyright; and
Skreem and its licensees shall have the sole and exclusive right to use the
recordings throughout the world or any part thereof in any manner it sees fit.
Skreem may pay all specifically approved recording costs in connection with the
master recordings made hereunder, and all recording costs shall be deemed fully
recoupable advances to the Artists and shall be deducted from any and all
royalties payable to the Artist by Skreem under this or any and all royalties
payable to the Artists by Skreem. Any and all monies paid to or on behalf of the
Artists during the term of the agreement shall be fully recoupable,
non-returnable advances unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing between the
Company and the Artists. Skreem has the right, but not the obligation to have
the Artists participate in the creation of music videos and 100% of any and all
monies expended by or advanced by Skreem for the production of music videos
shall constitute additional fully recoupable advances hereunder. Skreem shall
own any and all rights in and to said music videos in perpetuity.
7
In its sole discretion, Skreem may choose, at any time during the term of the
agreements, to license master recordings made by the Artists to third parties on
a flat fee or royalty basis, or to enter into a distribution agreement with a
third party distributor for the distribution of phonograph records embodying
master recordings recorded by the Artists through normal retail channels in the
United States and worldwide. With respect to master recordings of the Artists
licensed to third parties on a flat-fee basis, Skreem shall pay the Artists
20-50% of the net amount received by Skreem under such license. With respect to
master recordings of the Artists licensed to third parties on a royalty basis,
and with respect to phonograph recordings released through a distributor
selected by Skreem, Skreem shall pay the Artists the lesser of 20-50% of the
Skreem's net earned royalty receipts under such license or distribution
agreement, or 20-50% of the basic album or single rate as defined in the
agreements. Further, in its sole discretion, Skreem may choose to commercially
release phonograph records through the Skreem's own distribution network. In
such event, Skreem agrees to pay the Artists royalties based on the basic album
or singe rate as defined in the agreements. For phonograph recordings that are
exported or sold outside the United States and through record clubs or similar
plans, the Artists shall be paid a royalty of 20-50% of the amounts provided of
the above mentioned amounts. In addition, the Artists may earn royalties related
to licenses for musical compositions, music video licenses and merchandising.
At March 31, 2006, the Artists had earned royalties of approximately $45,000,
based on the year-end reported licensing revenues. However, Skreem is not
obligated to pay any royalties until total advances to Artists of $1,468,424 at
March 31, 2006 (plus any future advances) have been recouped.
Music Publishing Agreements
At March 31, 2006, Skreem had entered into long-term Music Publishing Agreements
with five individual Writers, which include the three Artists of "3rd Wish", the
Artist "PatMoe" and the Artist "Willie Will". Skreem engaged the Writers to
render the Writer's exclusive services as songwriters and composers based upon
terms and conditions set forth in the agreements. In accordance with the
agreements, the Writers grant all rights to all musical compositions written or
owned by the Writers and all musical compositions shall be Skreem's exclusive
property as sole owner. Skreem shall pay royalties to the Writers based on
various terms and conditions set forth in the agreements. There have been no
royalties earned by the writers related to the agreements.
8
Personal Management Agreement
At March 31, 2006, Skreem had entered into long-term Personal Management
Agreements with five Artists, which include the three Artists of "3rd Wish", the
Artist "PatMoe" and the Artist "Willie Will". Skreem accepts the engagement as
the Artists' sole and exclusive personal management company in connection with
all activities in the entertainment industries throughout the world, including
but not limited to their services as musicians, songwriters, actors, publishers,
packagers or performers in any medium now known or hereafter devised. For
personal management services performed, the Artists agree to pay Skreem 15%-20%
of all gross compensation earned or received as a result of activities in the
entertainment industry. However, Skreem shall not be entitled to commissions by
the Artists from the sale, license, or grant of any literary or music rights to
Skreem or any person, firm, or corporation owned or controlled by Skreem. During
the year ended March 31, 2006, Skreem earned commissions of $981, all related to
live performances.
Skreem's acts face fierce competition. There is no shortage of acts and
musicians seeking fortune and fame. There is also no shortage of talent in the
music industry. Skreem believes that their approach of being selective when
choosing acts, refining these acts abroad, and marketing the acts through
appearances, performances, and music sales is a viable method to compete in the
music industry. However there are many other organizations with more capital to
spend, greater access to talent, better industry connections, and more
experience.
Skreem's future depends on the success of its acts and artists. Many music acts
spend entire careers without having a single popular song or tour. The most
talented artists and acts are not always the most successful and fan acceptance
is the most important and most difficult element of success. If the fans like
the act, the fans will purchase the music and tickets and recommend it to
friends. If the fans don't like the act, the act may never gain acceptance.
