As Caring Products International, Inc., USGA and its subsidiaries designed a line of proprietary urinary incontinence products with disposable liners that were sold under the Rejoice brand name in the U.S., Canada and Europe. Due to a lack of funding necessary to support full retail distribution in chain stores and hospitals, we closed our marketing offices and liquidated our remaining inventory. We discontinued all operations related to the production, marketing and sale of our incontinence products during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001.
On March 30, 2001, we consummated a private placement of 90,000 shares of our common stock to Raymond Bills, a previously unaffiliated accredited investor. Mr. Bills paid $250,000 in consideration for the issuance. After giving effect to the transaction and including the 30,563 previously issued and outstanding shares of common stock, Mr. Bills was the beneficial owner of approximately 75% of our issued and outstanding common stock. In connection with the transaction, Mr. Bills joined our board of directors. Concurrently, four of the five members of the board resigned. Ian Rice also joined the board of directors, serving as its chairman.
On May 17, 2002, we completed a share exchange with USDR Global Aerospace, Ltd., a Delaware corporation ("USDRGA"), and the USDRGA stockholders. At the closing, we issued an aggregate of 20,000,000 unregistered, restricted shares of our pre-split common stock to the USDRGA stockholders in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of USDRGA, consisting of an aggregate of 5,000,000 unregistered, restricted pre-split shares of common stock. The four to one exchange ratio was determined by taking into account the fair market value of USDRGA, which included an evaluation of the assets and liabilities and management expertise of USDRGA. USDRGA stockholders John Robinson and Gerald Wiener exchanged their shares of USDRGA common stock for 12,000,000 and 8,000,000 pre-split shares of our common stock, respectively. At the closing of the share exchange, Robinson and Wiener owned approximately 48% and 32% of our issued and outstanding pre-split shares of common stock, respectively, and USDRGA became our wholly owned subsidiary.
Effective on the closing date, our two officers and directors, Raymond Bills and Ian Rice, resigned as officers and appointed:
o John Robinson, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of USDRGA, as our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer;
o Gerald Wiener, the President and Chief Operating Officer of USDRGA, as our President;
o Gaddy Wells, the Secretary of USDRGA, as our Secretary; and
o Julie Seaman, the Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer of USDRGA, as our Treasurer.
In addition, subject to and effective upon compliance with Rule 14f-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rice and Bills resigned as our directors and appointed Robinson, Wiener, Wells and Seaman as our new board of directors. However, effective June 14, 2002, Mr. Wells resigned his positions as an officer and future director of USGA, as well as his positions as an officer and director of USDGRA, as a result of issues regarding potential conflicts of interest. Effective June 17, 2002, Ms. Seaman was appointed as Secretary of USGA, in addition to being Treasurer and a director of USGA. Effective July 29, 2002, Mr. Wiener resigned as a director and as President of USGA, and as the President and Chief Operating Officer of USDRGA. As of the date of this report, the officers and directors of USGA are as follows: John Robinson, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, and Julie Seaman, Treasurer, Secretary and director.
Effective December 31, 2002, USGA filed a Certificate of Ownership with the Secretary of State of Delaware effecting the merger of USDRGA with and into USGA, and USGA assumed all the assets and liabilities of USDRGA.
On February 13, 2003, our Board of Directors approved a 3 for 1 forward split of our common stock for shareholders of record as of February 24, 2003. The 3 for 1 stock split became effective on March 5, 2003. Unless otherwise specified, all references to the number of shares and per share data in this report give effect to this stock split.
