Consolidations

Companies seek consolidations for many reasons, and David Schaller and Bearcatbob outlined a few of them. They are completed primarily to allow the corporation to raise funds. A change in name is required by Exchange Policy, principally so one old share certificate doesn't get mistaken for a new share certificate.

The Company had said previously that no share consolidation was required, as many junior operating companies have > 30 million shares issued and outstanding, and that the Company had considered alternative forms of financing its projects. But circumstances change, and it is a fool that does not change plans as circumstances change.

Much of the Company's plans hinged on Bumbat, and the Company is seeking shareholder support of a consolidation in the event that the situation regarding Bumbat not be resolved in a timely or in an acceptable manner.

The Mongolian court system is new to the Company, and while we believe that the system works, it is prudent to prepare a contingency plan. It is apparent that the quick decision the Company had been expecting hasn't happen. This does not appear to have any implication on either a positive or negative resolution, but the extensive delay is becoming more than tedious. The "waiting for Godot" alternative is NOT an alternative.

The effect of a consolidation, or someone receiving a dollar for ten dimes can evoke negative feelings from shareholders. Others recognize a consolidation as marking a change in direction. The alternative of no consolidation and continued waiting is not acceptable. Shareholders however are encouraged to vote their proxies according to their wishes and conscience.
