DEFINITIVE INFORMATION STATEMENT
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY,
AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY.
INTRODUCTION
This Information Statement is furnished to
the stockholders of Independent Film Development Corporation, a Nevada corporation, in connection with action taken by our board
of directors and the holders of a majority in interest of our voting capital stock to effect a restatement of our Articles of Incorporation
(“Restatement”). The foregoing action has been ratified by the written consent of the holders of a majority in interest
of our voting capital stock, consisting of our outstanding common stock, outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, as well as our board
of directors, by written consent on February 11, 2015 . We anticipate that a copy of this Definitive Information Statement will
be mailed to our shareholders as of the date hereof. We have attached a copy of the Restatement to this Information Statement for
your reference.
The Restatement was effected as of February
11, 2015 but, under federal securities laws, is not effective until at least 20 days after the mailing of this Information Statement.
We anticipate that the effective date for the Restatement will be on or about March 4, 2015.
RECORD DATE, VOTE REQUIRED AND RELATED INFORMATION
If the Restatement was not adopted by majority
written consent, it would have been required to be considered by our stockholders at a special stockholders’ meeting convened
for the specific purpose of approving the Restatement. The elimination of the need for a special meeting of stockholders to approve
the Restatement is made possible by Section 78.320 of Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”),
which provides that the written consent of the holders of outstanding shares of voting capital stock, having not less than the
minimum number of votes which would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to
vote thereon were present and voted, may be substituted for such a special meeting. Pursuant to the NRS, a majority in interest
of our capital stock entitled to vote thereon is required in order to approve the Restatement. In order to eliminate the costs
and management time involved in holding a special meeting, our Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interests
of all of our shareholders that the Restatement be adopted by majority written consent and this Information Statement to be mailed
to all stockholders as notice of the action taken.
The record date for purposes of determining
the number of outstanding shares of our voting capital stock, and for determining stockholders entitled to vote, is the close of
business on February 8, 2015 (the “Record Date”). As of the Record Date, we had outstanding:
| (i) | 113,392,866 shares of common stock; |
| (ii) | 5,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock holds 100
votes and is able to vote on all matters upon which the common stockholders may vote. |
The transfer agent for our common stock
is American Registrar & Transfer Co.
NO MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS REQUIRED
We are not soliciting any votes in connection
with the Restatement. The persons that have consented to the Restatement hold a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting
rights and, accordingly, such persons have sufficient voting rights to approve the Restatement.
RESTATEMENT OF ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
We are amending and restating our Articles of
Incorporation in its entirety to:
| · | increase in the number of authorized shares of common stock of the Company from 500,000,000 shares
to 2,000,000,000 shares.; |
| · | adjust the par value of the common stock to $0.00001; |
| · | increase the number of authorized shares of Preferred stock of the Company from 15,000,000 shares
to 15,000,010 shares; |
These changes to our Articles of Incorporation
will not adversely affect stockholders but will enable the Company’s board of directors, without further authorization from
shareholders, to issue up to 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock for consideration deemed adequate in exchange for such shares.
We have attached a copy of the Restatement to this Information Statement.
