Craig Grossman, Chief Executive Officer, President, and Corporate Secretary ----------- WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A CONSENT OR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY. ----------- GLAS-AIRE INDUSTRIES GROUP LTD. 145 Tyee Drive, Suite 1641 Point Roberts, Washington 98281 SEPTEMBER 6, 2006 SHAREHOLDERS ACTION The Majority Shareholders submitted their consents to the shareholder resolutions described in this Information Statement on or about August 23, 2006, to be effective on the later of October 2, 2006 or satisfaction by the Company of all applicable filing and notification requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of August 23, 2006, the Majority Shareholders held of record 4,353,618 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share, or approximately 74% of the total issued and outstanding common stock of the Company. The remaining outstanding shares of common stock are held by several hundred other shareholders. The Majority Shareholders consist of ALC Holdings, LLC, a limited liability company owned and controlled by Craig Grossman and Linda Kwan, Craig Grossman, the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, President, and Corporate Secretary of the Company, and Linda Kwan, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. See "SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS." Holders of the common stock of record as of September 7, 2006 are entitled to submit their consent to the shareholder resolutions described in this Information Statement, although no shareholder consents other than that of the Majority Shareholders are required to be submitted in order for the resolution to be adopted. The Company is not soliciting consents or proxies and shareholders have no obligation to submit either of them. Whether or not shareholders submit consents should not affect their rights as shareholders or the prospects of the proposed shareholder resolutions being adopted. The Majority Shareholders will consent to all of the shareholder resolutions described in this Information Statement. Other shareholders who desire to submit their consents must do so by October 9, 2006 and once submitted will not be revocable. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding common stock of the Company is required to adopt the resolutions described in this Information Statement. Nevada law does not require that the proposed transaction be approved by a majority of the disinterested shareholders. A total of 5,881,735 shares of common stock will be entitled to vote on the Company's proposed transactions described in this Information Statement. THE COMPANY AND THE TRANSACTIONS THE COMPANY The Company has its executive offices at 145 Tyee Drive, Suite 1641, Point Roberts, Washington 98281, and its telephone number is (360) 447-0210. -1- PROPOSED SHAREHOLDER ACTIONS As described in the accompanying NOTICE OF ACTION TO BE TAKEN BY THE SHAREHOLDERS, the Company proposes to file two amendments to its Articles of Incorporation. The first amendment will be filed by the Company prior to the closing of that certain definitive stock purchase agreement (the "SPA"), effective as of July 1, 2006, by and between the Company and Pacific Environmental Sampling, Inc., a California corporation ("ESP") in order to (i) effect a one for 3.75 reverse stock split of all issued and outstanding common stock of the Company for shareholders of record on the date such amendment is recorded and (ii) increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock from 30,000,000, par value $0.01 to 100,000,000, par value $0.001 (collectively, the "First Amendment"). The Board of Directors of the Company voted unanimously to implement the First Amendment because the Board of Directors believes that the implementation of the First Amendment will help to facilitate the Company's planned business combination, as described herein, with ESP and that an increase to the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock will allow the Company to grow its business in the future. The second amendment will be filed by the Company upon the closing of the SPA in order to change the Company's name from Glas-Aire Industries Group Ltd. to Environmental Service Professionals, Inc. (the "Second Amendment"). The Board of Directors of the Company voted unanimously to implement the Second Amendment because the Board of Directors believes that after the Company's planned business combination with ESP the name Environmental Service Professionals, Inc. will more accurately reflect the nature of the Company's business. The Company is not expected to experience a material tax consequence as a result of the First Amendment or the Second Amendment. Increasing the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock may, however, subject the Company's existing shareholders to future dilution of their ownership in the Company. The Company also proposes to ratify, affirm, and approve (i) entry by the Company into a letter of intent with ESP and Mr. Craig Grossman pursuant to which the Company and ESP will enter into a twelve month consulting agreement (the "Agreement") with Mr. Craig Grossman upon the closing of the SPA, and (ii) ratify, affirm, and approve the terms of the SPA which concern the Agreement, and (iii) authorize the Chief Executive Officer to cause the Company to enter into the Agreement in such form as the Chief Executive Officer approves, provided the Agreement contains substantially the same terms as the LOI. The Company believes that the retention of Mr. Craig Grossman as a consultant to the Company will help the Company to expand its business after its business combination with ESP as the Agreement provides for Mr. Grossman to use his best efforts during the term of the Agreement to establish and supervise the operation of ESP's branch offices in the State of Washington, as well as to refer prospective purchasers of franchises to ESP for the sale of franchises in all territories where ESP is legally permitted to sell them. STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT WITH ESP Effective as of July 1, 2006, on or about August 15, 2006, the Company and ESP entered into the SPA to effect a reverse merger between the companies (the "Reorganization") which will result in a share exchange such that ESP will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the shareholders of ESP will become the controlling shareholders of the Company. Pursuant to the Reorganization, the Company will effect a one for 3.75 reverse stock split and thereafter issue 14,625,000 shares of the Company's common stock to ESP in consideration for 14,625,000 shares of ESP's common stock. ESP will then distribute the 14,625,000 shares of the Company's common stock to its existing shareholders in consideration for the redemption of all (i.e. 14,625,000 shares) of the outstanding voting stock of ESP. The Company will thereafter issue additional shares of its common stock and common stock purchase warrants in a subsequent exchange offer with investors who are currently participating in private placements of common stock and common stock purchase warrants by ESP. -2- Upon completion of the Reorganization and private placements currently being made by ESP, assuming ESP raises the maximum of $3,004,500 in its private placements (not including ESP's right to raise up to an additional $100,000) and not including the exercise of any stock options or warrants, the Company expects to have a total of approximately 19,418,463 shares of its common stock outstanding. The Company's Board of Directors unanimously approved the Reorganization. Approval of the Reorganization by the Company's shareholders is not required under the Company's Articles of Incorporation, Company's bylaws, or the Nevada Revised Statues. ESP is a California corporation that was formed in May 2002 to engage in the business of providing limited mold and allergen survey services for single family and multi-tenant residential and commercial buildings. ESP is both federally registered and highly regulated, and serves as a franchisor of environmental sampling companies which potentially operate throughout North America. ESP received its initial license to sell franchises in the State of California in November 2002 from state and federal commissions, and has continually renewed the license every year.

Under the Nevada General Corporation Law and the Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, the Company's directors will have no personal liability to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages incurred as the result of the breach or alleged breach by a director of his "duty of care". This provision does not apply to the directors' (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, (ii) acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the corporation or its shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the director, (iii) approval of any transaction from which a director derives an improper personal benefit, (iv) acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director's duty to the corporation or its shareholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have -4- been aware, in the ordinary course of performing a director's duties, of a risk of serious injury to the corporation or its shareholders, (v) acts or omissions that constituted an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director's duty to the corporation or its shareholders, or (vi) approval of an unlawful dividend, distribution, stock repurchase or redemption. This provision would generally absolve directors of personal liability for negligence in the performance of duties, including gross negligence. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore unenforceable. BOARD COMMITTEES During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, the board of directors held one regular meeting. All directors attended 100% of all meetings of the board. As of August 17, 2006, the Company's board of directors had no audit, compensation, nominating, or other committees. Management is not certain when such committees will be formed, but the formation of an Audit Committee in compliance with the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 is a prerequisite to being a current reporting company with the Securities and Exchange Commission and having the Company's Common Stock accepted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board or NASDAQ Market. The board of directors will perform the functions of the compensation committee and a nominating committee until such committees are established by the board of directors. COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS Directors receive no cash compensation for their services to the Company as directors, but are reimbursed for expenses actually incurred in connection with attending meetings of the Board of Directors. COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company's directors, executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based on copies of such reports furnished to the Company, there were no reportable untimely filings under Forms 3, 4 or 5 by persons subject to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, during the last fiscal year.
