Dissenters’ Rights of Appraisal

ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN
On November 3, 2023, the Board, along with White Knight Co., Ltd. and Koichi Ishizuka, “the Consenting Stockholders”, as well as our Board of Directors, consisting solely of Koichi Ishizuka, approved the following proposal(s):
Proposal(s): To conduct a 100 to 1 Reverse Stock Split, effecting only the outstanding Common Shares of the Company. Accordingly, the Company will file a Certificate of Change (the “Certificate”) pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Section 78.209 with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on December ___, 2023, or as soon as practicable thereafter, which is at least 20 calendar days following the date the Company first mailed the Information Statement to its stockholders.
In connection with the Reverse Stock Split detailed herein, the Company will file with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) an Over-The-Counter (OTC) Corporate Action for the Reverse Stock Split to be processed by FINRA and published on the FINRA Daily List.
Pursuant to the proposed action, there is to be no change in the quantity of our authorized shares of Common or Preferred Stock.
Purpose of the Reverse Stock Split
The Company’s Board of Directors, consisting solely of Koichi Ishizuka, and our Majority Shareholders, comprised of White Knight Co., Ltd., which is owned and controlled by Koichi Ishizuka, as well as Koichi Ishizuka individually, believe that the Reverse Stock Split is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.
It is the belief of the Board of Directors, and the Majority Shareholders, that the Reverse Stock Split is in the best interests of the Company primarily for the following reasons, although these are not necessarily the sole rationale behind this decision:
The Board of Directors and Majority Shareholders believe that the Reverse Stock Split will improve the marketability and liquidity of the Common Stock. The Company believes that the increased market price of its Common Stock, expected as a result of implementing the Reverse Stock Split, may improve the marketability and liquidity of its Common Stock and may encourage interest and trading in its Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split could allow a broader range of institutions to invest in Common Stock (namely, funds that are prohibited from buying stocks whose price is below a certain threshold), potentially increasing the liquidity of its Common Stock. Because of the trading volatility often associated with low-priced stocks, many brokerage firms and or institutional investors have internal policies and practices that prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks. However, the liquidity of the Common Stock may in fact be adversely affected by the proposed Reverse Stock Split given the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the Reverse Stock Split.
Risks of the Reverse Stock Split
The Reverse Stock Split may not have the effect that the Company anticipates, which would prevent the Company from realizing some of the anticipated benefits of the Reverse Stock Split. The immediate effect of the Reverse Stock Split would be to reduce the number of shares of outstanding Common Stock and to potentially increase the trading price of the Company’s Common Stock. However, the effect of any effected Reverse Stock Split upon the market price of the Common Stock cannot be predicted, and the history of reverse stock splits for companies in similar circumstances sometimes improves stock performance, but in many cases does not. There can be no assurance that the trading price of the Common Stock after the Reverse Stock Split will rise in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding as a result of the Reverse Stock Split or remain at an increased level for any period. Also, there is no assurance that the stock price would not decline below the anticipated stock price following the Reverse Stock Split. The trading price of the Common Stock may change due to a variety of other factors, including’s operating results, other factors related to the Company’s business and general market conditions. In addition, the fewer number of shares that will be available to trade will possibly cause the trading market of the Common Stock to become less liquid, which could have an adverse effect on the price of the Common Stock.
Effects of the Reverse Stock Split
Reduction of Shares Held by Individual Stockholders. After the Effective Split Time, each Common Stockholder will own fewer shares of the Company’s Common Stock. However, the Reverse Stock Split will affect all of the Common Stockholders uniformly and will not affect any Common Stockholder’s percentage ownership interests in the Company, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split results in any of its stockholders owning a fractional share as described below. Any fractional share shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share. Further, any stockholder as of the Effective Split Time who owns at least 100 shares will not own less than 100 shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
Authorized Shares of Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, would not change the number of authorized shares of the Common Stock as designated by the Articles. Therefore, because the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock would decrease, the number of shares remaining available for issuance of Common Stock would increase.
Other Effects on Outstanding Shares. If the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, the rights and preferences of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock would remain the same after the Reverse Stock Split. Each share of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split would be fully paid and non-assessable.
STATE FILING
The Reverse Stock Split will be effected by the Company filing a Certificate of Change (the “Certificate”) pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Section 78.209 with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on December ___, 2023, or as soon as practicable thereafter, which is at least 20 calendar days following the date the Company first mailed the Information Statement to its stockholders.
In connection with the Reverse Stock Split detailed herein, the Company will file with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) an Over-The-Counter (OTC) Corporate Action for the Reverse Stock Split to be processed by FINRA and published on the FINRA Daily List. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split we anticipate that our ticker symbol may change for a temporary period of time, with the addition of a “D”. In connection with our Reverse Stock Split we will receive a new CUSIP number.
We anticipate that we will file an 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission after completion of our FINRA corporate action that may include, amongst other details, our new CUSIP number for our Common Stock and other pertinent information.
The legal date of the Certificate of Change we will file with the Nevada Secretary of State in connection with our Reverse Stock Split may not be the same exact date as the FINRA effective date of our Reverse Stock Split.
See Appendix A for the text of the Certificate of Change.
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN
BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following sets forth information as of November 3, 2023, regarding the number of shares of our Common Stock beneficially owned by (i) each person that we know beneficially owns more than 5% of our outstanding Common Stock, (ii) each of our directors and named executive officer and (iii) all of our directors and named executive officer as a group.
Beneficial ownership and percentage ownership are determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Under these rules, beneficial ownership generally includes any shares as to which the individual or entity has sole or shared voting power or investment power and includes any shares that an individual or entity has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of within 60 days of November 3, 2023, through the exercise of any option, warrant or similar right (such instruments being deemed to be “presently exercisable”). In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of our common stock that could be issued upon the exercise of presently exercisable options and warrants are considered to be outstanding. These shares, however, are not considered outstanding as of November 3, 2023 when computing the percentage ownership of each other person.
The percentage of voting control held by each listed person and/or entity is based on 2,072,642,444 shares of Common Stock, $0.0001 par value, issued and outstanding and 0 shares of Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value, issued and outstanding as of the date of this report.
| Name and Address of Beneficial Owner | Shares of Common Stock Beneficially Owned | Common Stock Voting Percentage Beneficially Owned | Voting Shares Preferred Stock Are Able to Vote | Preferred Stock Voting Percentage Beneficially Owned | Total Voting Percentage Beneficially Owned (1) |
| Executive Officers and Directors | |||||
| Koichi Ishizuka 1 | 101,363,636 | 4.89% | 0 | 0.0% | 4.89% |

| White Knight Co., Ltd. 2 | 1,525,575,514 | 73.61% | 0 | 0% | 73.61% |
| Total | 1,626,939,150 | 78.50% | 0 | 0% | 78.50% |
1 The row above for Koichi Ishizuka denotes shares held under his personal name.
2 White Knight Co., Ltd., is owned entirely by our sole officer and Director, Koichi Ishizuka.
Note: Collectively, Koichi Ishizuka and White Knight Co., Ltd. own and control 1,626,939,150 shares of Common Stock as of the date of this Information Statement.
Beneficial ownership has been determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. Under this rule, certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire shares (for example, upon exercise of an option or warrant) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person by reason of such acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in the following table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual voting power at any particular date.
INTEREST OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON
No director, executive officer, nominee for election as a director, associate of any director, executive officer or nominee, or any other person, has any substantial interest, direct or indirect, in the Name Change or Proposals detailed herein that are not shared by all other stockholders.
DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS TO STOCKHOLDERS SHARING AN ADDRESS
If hard copies of the materials are requested, we will send only one Information Statement and other corporate mailings to stockholders who share a single address unless we received contrary instructions from any stockholder at that address. This practice, known as “householding,” is designed to reduce our printing and postage costs. However, the Company will deliver promptly upon written or oral request a separate copy of the Information Statement to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the Information Statement was delivered. You may make such a written or oral request by (a) sending a written notification stating (i) your name, (ii) your shared address and (iii) the address to which the Company should direct the additional copy of the Information Statement, to WB Burgers Asia, Inc., 3F K’s Minamiaoyama 6-6-20, Minamiaoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo, 107-0062, Japan, Attn: Chief Executive Officer, Koichi Ishizuka.
If multiple stockholders sharing an address have received one copy of this Information Statement or any other corporate mailing and would prefer the Company to mail each stockholder a separate copy of future mailings, you may mail notification to, or call the Company at, its principal executive offices. Additionally, if current stockholders with a shared address received multiple copies of this Information Statement or other corporate mailings and would prefer the Company to mail one copy of future mailings to stockholders at the shared address, notification of such request may also be made by mail or telephone to the Company’s principal executive offices.
