We evaluate independence by the standards for director independence established by applicable laws, rules, and listing standards including, without limitation, the standards for independent directors established by The New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the NASDAQ National Market, and the Securities and Exchange Commission. Subject to some exceptions, these standards generally provide that a director will not be independent if (a) the director is, or in the past three years has been, an employee of ours; (b) a member of the director's immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, an executive officer of ours; (c) the director or a member of the director's immediate family has received more than $120,000 per year in direct compensation from us other than for service as a director (or for a family member, as a non-executive employee); (d) the director or a member of the director's immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, employed in a professional capacity by our independent public accountants, or has worked for such firm in any capacity on our audit; (e) the director or a member of the director's immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, employed as an executive officer of a company where one of our executive officers serves on the compensation committee; or (f) the director or a member of the director's immediate family is an executive officer of a company that makes payments to, or receives payments from, us in an amount which, in any twelve-month period during the past three years, exceeds the greater of $1,000,000 or two percent of that other company's consolidated gross revenues.

MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD Our Board of Directors held no formal meetings during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012. All proceedings of the Board of Directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on the contemplated resolutions at a meeting of 6 the directors are, according to the Nevada Revised Statutes and the bylaws of our company, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held. We do not presently have a policy regarding director attendance at meetings. We do not currently have standing audit, nominating or compensation committees, or committees performing similar functions. Due to the size of our board, our Board of Directors believes that it is not necessary to have standing audit, nominating or compensation committees at this time because the functions of such committees are adequately performed by our Board of Directors. We do not have an audit, nominating or compensation committee charter as we do not currently have such committees. We do not have a policy for electing members to the board. Neither our current nor proposed directors are independent directors as defined in the NASD listing standards. After the change in the Board of Directors, it is anticipated that the Board of Directors will form separate compensation, nominating and audit committees, with the audit committee including an audit committee financial expert. AUDIT COMMITTEE Our Board of Directors has not established a separate audit committee within the meaning of Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Instead, the entire Board of Directors acts as the audit committee within the meaning of Section 3(a)(58)(B) of the Exchange Act and will continue to do so upon the appointment of the proposed director until such time as a separate audit committee has been established. SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers, and shareholders holding more than 10% of our outstanding Common Stock to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership of our Common Stock. Executive officers, directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our Common Stock are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based solely upon a review of Forms 3, 4, and 5 delivered to us as filed with the SEC during our most recent fiscal year, none of our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our Common Stock failed to timely file the reports required pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, except that Donald MacDow, our former sole officer and director, failed to file a Form 3 or Form 4. FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS There are no family relationships between or among the directors, executive officers or persons nominated or chosen by us to become directors or executive officers. NOMINATIONS TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Our directors take a critical role in guiding our strategic direction and oversee the management of the Company. The candidates for the Board of Directors are considered based upon various criteria, such as their broad-based business and professional skills and experiences, a global business and social perspective, concern for the long-term interests of the shareholders, diversity, and personal integrity and judgment. In addition, directors must have time available to devote to the activities of the Board of Directors and to enhance their knowledge in the growing business. Accordingly, we seek to attract and retain highly qualified directors who have sufficient time to attend to their substantial duties and responsibilities to the Company. In carrying out its responsibilities, the Board of Directors will consider candidates suggested by shareholders. If a shareholder wishes to formally place a candidate's name for nomination, such shareholder must do so in accordance with the provisions of the Bylaws. Suggestions for candidates to be evaluated by the proposed director must be sent to the Board of Directors, c/o Boost My Ads, Inc. Suite 8, 20/F, IFC 1, Harbour View St., Hong Kong. The Board of Directors has determined not to adopt a formal methodology for communications from 7 shareholders other than as described above, which method has been deemed sufficient by the Board of Directors to allow full and adequate communication between the Board of Directors and the shareholders. BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE AND ROLE ON RISK OVERSIGHT Mr. William Henderson currently serves as the Company's principal executive officer and a director. The Company determined this leadership structure was appropriate for the Company due to our small size and limited operations and resources. The Board of Directors will continue to evaluate the Company's leadership structure and modify as appropriate based on the size, resources and operations of the Company. Subsequent to the closing of the Exchange Transaction, it is anticipated that the Board of Directors will establish procedures to determine an appropriate role for the Board of Directors in the Company's risk oversight function. BOARD COMPENSATION We have no standard arrangement to compensate directors for their services in their capacity as directors. Directors are not paid for meetings attended. However, we intend to review and consider future proposals regarding board compensation. All travel and lodging expenses associated with corporate matters are reimbursed by us, if and when incurred. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION No director, officer or employee of BMA received compensation during BMA's last fiscal year. None of our executive officers or directors received, nor do we have any arrangements to pay out, any bonus, stock awards, option awards, non-equity incentive plan compensation, or non-qualified deferred compensation.

The table below sets forth the number and percentage of shares of our common stock owned as of April 9, 2013, by the following persons: (i) shareholders known to us who own 5% or more of our outstanding shares, (ii) each of our officers and directors, and (iii) our officers and directors as a group.
