Vote Obtained - Section 607.0704 Florida Revised Statutes

Section 607.0704 of the Florida Revised Statutes (the “Florida Law”) provides that the written consent of the holders of the outstanding shares of common 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 meeting. In order to eliminate the costs and management time involved in obtaining proxies and in order to effect the Proposals as early as possible in order to accomplish the purposes of the Company as hereafter described, the Board of Directors of the Company voted to utilize, and did in fact obtain, the written consent of the holders of a majority in interest of the common stock of the Company, approving each of the Proposals.

Pursuant to Section 607.0704 of the Florida Revised Statutes, the Company is required to provide prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting to the stockholders of record who have not consented in writing to such action. This Information Statement is intended to provide such notice. Under Florida Law, no dissenters’ or appraisal rights are afforded to the Company's stockholders as a result of the approval of the Proposals.


PROPOSAL ONE
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Directors are elected by the shareholders at each annual meeting to hold office until their respective successors are elected and qualified, and need not be shareholders of the Company or residents of the State of Florida. Directors may receive compensation for their services as determined by the Board of Directors. See “Compensation of Directors.” The number of Directors as set by the Bylaws of the Company shall be no less than one (1) nor more than seven (7). Presently, the Board consists of three (3) members, namely Carl Berg, Kevin J. Gadawski, and Mark Stewart. Mr. Berg is an employee-director and Messrs. Gadawski and Stewart are outside (non-employee) directors.

Voting for the election of directors is non-cumulative, which means that a simple majority of the shares voting may elect all of the directors. Each share of common stock is entitled to one (1) vote and, therefore, has a number of votes equal to the number of authorized directors.

Although management of the Company expects that each of the following nominees will be available to serve as a director, in the event that any of them should become unavailable prior to the shareholders meeting, a replacement will be appointed by a majority of the then-existing Board of Directors. Management has no reason to believe that any of its nominees, if elected, will be unavailable to serve. All nominees are expected to serve until the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

PROPOSAL TWO
RENEWAL OF POLICY TO SELL STOCK
AT LESS THAN NET ASSET VALUE

On April 20, 2004, the Board of Directors approved a policy which would allow for the sale of securities at less than the current net asset value consistent with the requirements set forth above, and seeks the renewal of that policy consistent with Section 63(2) of the 1940 Act. As of the end of the Company’s last fiscal year, December 31, 2004, and as of the filing of this Information Statement, the Company has not issued any of its securities, including stock, warrants, or options, at a price that is below the current net asset value of its common stock.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

To the Company’s knowledge, none of the required parties are delinquent in their 16(a) filings.

Code of Ethics

We have not adopted a written code of ethics, primarily because we believe and understand that our officers and directors adhere to and follow ethical standards without the necessity of a written policy.

Executive Compensation

None of our employees are subject to a written employment agreement. Our president elected to forego a salary during the early developmental stages, and also provided office space. We estimate the value of these services to be $6,000 for each year for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. As of December 31, 2004 we did not have any amounts owed to our president as he elected to forgive any outstanding amounts he was owed and to forego a salary until further notice.

On May 15, 2001, our directors and shareholders approved the M-GAB, Inc. 2001 Stock Option Plan, effective June 1, 2001. The plan offers selected employees, directors, and consultants an opportunity to acquire our common stock, and serves to encourage such persons to remain employed by us and to attract new employees. The plan allows for the award of stock and options, up to 600,000 shares of our common stock. In November 2003, we agreed to issue options to acquire 600,000 shares under the Plan to our two independent directors; however, these options will not be issued until such time as approved by the Commission in accordance with rules and regulations applicable to BDC’s. Our Application For an Order Pursuant to Section 61(a)(3)(B) of The Investment Company Act of 1940 to Permit the Issuance of Stock Options to Non-Interested Directors is currently pending before the Commission. We hope to receive approval to issue the options to our non-interested directors during the second quarter of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

Compensation of Directors

In November 2003, we agreed to issue to each of Mr. Gadawski and Mr. Stewart options to acquire 300,000 shares of our common stock for serving as directors of the Corporation. The issuance of the options is subject to approval of the SEC pursuant to provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, and will not be issued until the issuance is approved by the SEC. The options are to be exercisable for a period of ten years from their grant date, at an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the grant date, and will expire upon their resignation from the Board. Our Application For an Order Pursuant to Section 61(a)(3)(B) of The Investment Company Act of 1940 to Permit the Issuance of Stock Options to Non-Interested Directors is currently pending before the Commission. We hope to receive approval to issue the options to our non-interested directors during the second quarter of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

In addition, we have agreed to pay Mr. Gadawski $1,250 per quarter for additional consulting services.

Mr. Berg has not received any compensation for serving as a director. Other than as set forth herein, no compensation has been given to any of the directors, although they may be reimbursed for any pre-approved out-of-pocket expenses.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

We have engaged one of our shareholders, Mr. Lebrecht, as our corporate counsel. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, we did not incur any legal fees to Mr. Lebrecht’s law firm since he has agreed to forego all fees for legal services related to our Company until further notice. Prior to this agreement, we incurred fees related to legal services and out of pocket costs to Mr. Lebrecht’s firm of $37,730 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003. However, Mr. Lebrecht agreed to forgive amounts due to his law firm in 2004.

As of December 31, 2004, we did not have any amounts owed to Mr. Berg as he has agreed to forgive all amounts we owed to him until further notice.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

Any shareholder desiring to submit a proposal for action at the 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and presentation in the Company's Information or Proxy Statement with respect to such meeting, should arrange for such proposal to be delivered to the Company's offices, located at 22342 Avenida Empresa, Suite 220, Rancho Santa Margarita, California 92688, addressed to the corporate Secretary, no later than March 1, 2006, in order to be considered for inclusion in the Company's Information or Proxy Statement relating to the meeting. Matters pertaining to such proposals, including the number and length thereof, eligibility of persons entitled to have such proposals included and other aspects are regulated by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and other laws and regulations to which interested persons should refer. The Company anticipates that its next annual meeting will be held in May 2006.

On May 21, 1998, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted an amendment to Rule 14a-4, as promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The amendment to Rule 14a-4(c)(1) governs the Company's use of its discretionary proxy voting authority with respect to a shareholder proposal which is not addressed in the Company's proxy statement. The new amendment provides that if a proponent of a proposal fails to notify the Company at least 45 days prior to the month and day of mailing of the prior year's proxy statement, then the Company will be allowed to use its discretionary voting authority when the proposal is raised at the meeting, without any discussion of the matter in the proxy statement.
