RATIFICATION
OF APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO (i) CHANGE THE COMPANY’S NAME FROM “CAPITAL PARK HOLDINGS
CORP.” TO “BRIDGEWAY NATIONAL CORP.” AND (ii) INCREASE OUR AUTHORIZED CAPITAL STOCK FROM 30,000,000 TO 250,000,000
SHARES
On
December 19, 2020, we filed an amendment to our certificate of incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State, which was declared
effective on January 20, 2020 (the “December 2019 Amendment”). The amendment (i) changed the Company’s
name from “Capital Park Holdings Corp.” to “Bridgeway National Corp.” and (ii) increased
our authorized capital stock from 30,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares, of which 187,500,000 shares were designated as the
Class A Common Stock, 18,750,000 shares were designated as the Class B Common Stock and 62,500,000 shares were designated as preferred
stock, of which 1,000 shares were previously designated as the Series A Preferred Stock and 125,181 shares were previously designated
as the Series B Preferred Stock. The purpose of the amendment was to provide the Company with what management believed was a more
suitable corporate name and allow it to avoid confusion with other entities, as well as provide it with additional authorized
capital stock, which could be used to raise capital through private or public offerings of its capital stock in order to fund
contemplated acquisitions of portfolio companies or as consideration, in whole or in part for such acquisitions.
Although
the December 2019 amendment was approved by the joint written consent of the Board and the Majority Stockholder, due to an administrative
oversight, the Company failed to comply with Section 14(c) of the Exchange Act and Regulation 14C promulgated thereunder with
respect to approval of the December 2019 amendment, by not furnishing stockholders with the required notice and Information Statement.
Accordingly, on October 16, 2020, the Board and the Majority Stockholder ratified approval of the December 2019 amendment by written
consent in lieu of a meeting and included notice of such ratification in this Information Statement.
AMENDMENT
OF OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO EFFECT A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF THE OUTSTANDING SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK AT THE RATIO
OF ONE-FOR-4
General
On
October 16, 2020, the Board and the Majority Stockholder took action by joint written consent in lieu of a meeting to approve
an additional amendment to our certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”)
of our outstanding shares of our Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (collectively, the “Common Stock”)
at the at the ratio of one-for-4 (the “Reverse Stock Split Amendment”). If the Board elects to implement the
Reverse Stock Split, it will become effective through filing of the Reverse Stock Split Amendment with the Delaware Secretary
of State, which will not occur until after the effective date of the Recapitalization Amendment.
The
Board may (but is not required to) effect the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio (the “Reverse Stock Split Ratio”)
of one-for-4. The Board reserves its right not to effect the Reverse Stock Split if it determines, in its sole discretion,
that the Reverse Stock Split is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
Reasons
for the Reverse Stock Split
The purpose
of the proposed Reverse Stock Split is to decrease the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock in order to increase the market
value of each share of Class A Common Stock. Immediately following the Reverse Stock Split the per-share price of the Class A
Common Stock should generally increase proportionately with the Reverse Stock Split Ratio. For example, immediately following
the Reverse Stock Split at the ration of one-for-4, you would expect the price of our shares of Class A Common Stock to quadruple.
In the longer term, however, depending upon market and industry conditions and the status of our Company, the Reverse Stock Split
may have no effect, a positive effect or a negative effect on the value of the post- Reverse Stock Split Class A Common Stock.
Reducing
the number of outstanding shares of our Common Stock through the Reverse Stock Split is intended, absent other factors, to increase
the market price of our Class A Common Stock. However, other factors, such as our financial results, market conditions and the
market perception of our business may adversely affect the market price of our Class A Common Stock. As a result, there can be
no assurance that the Reverse Stock Split, if completed, will result in the intended benefits described above, that the market
price of our Class A Common Stock will increase (proportionately to the reduction in the number of shares of our Common Stock
after the Reverse Stock Split or otherwise) following the Reverse Stock Split or that the market price of our Class A Common Stock
will not decrease in the future. Additionally, we cannot assure you that the market price per share of our Class A Common Stock
after a Reverse Stock Split will increase in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock outstanding
before the Reverse Stock Split. Accordingly, the total market capitalization of our Class A Common Stock after the Reverse Stock
Split could be lower or higher than the total market capitalization before the Reverse Stock Split.
Effects
of Reverse Stock Split
After
giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split, the 9,640,915
shares of pre-Reverse Stock Split Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Record Date will be recapitalized
into approximately 2,410.229 shares (subject to rounding) of post-Reverse Stock Split Class A Common Stock. The practical
effect of the Reverse Stock Split will be to provide us with an additional 7,230,686 authorized but unissued shares
of our post-Reverse Stock Split Class A Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split does not itself change the number of our
authorized shares of Common Stock.
The
following table presents information about our issued and outstanding Common Stock, shares reserved and shares available for future
issuance, on a pre-Reverse Stock Split and post-Reverse Stock Split basis:

Amounts estimated, subject to rounding.
The
Board and management believe that it is prudent and advisable for us to retain a sufficient number of authorized shares now to
better position ourselves with added flexibility to raise additional capital through a variety of possible financing transactions
and/or consummate mergers, acquisitions, combinations and various other strategic alternatives, and in order to avoid delays that
might otherwise arise if we were required to solicit stockholder approval for additional shares at the time of a proposed transaction.
Our
authorized but unissued Common Stock may be issued at the direction of the Board at such times, in such amounts and upon such
terms as the Board may determine, without further approval of our stockholders unless, in any instance, such approval is expressly
required by law.
The
Common Stock that will be available for issuance following effectiveness of the Reverse Stock
Split (as well as our authorized but unissued preferred stock) could have material anti-takeover consequences, including the ability
of the Board to issue additional Common Stock or preferred stock without additional stockholder approval because unissued Common
Stock could be issued by the Board in circumstances that may have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing takeover bids.
For example, without further stockholder approval, the Board could strategically sell Common Stock or preferred stock in a private
transaction to purchasers who would oppose a takeover. In addition, because stockholders do not have preemptive rights under our
certificate of incorporation, the rights of existing stockholders may (depending on the particular circumstances in which the
additional capital stock is issued) be diluted by any such issuance and increase the potential cost to acquire control of our
Company. The Company’s stockholders should be aware that approval of the Amendments could facilitate our efforts to deter
or prevent changes of control in the future.
The Board
does not intend to issue any additional shares of our capital stock except on terms that it deems to be in the best interest of
our Company and our stockholders. It is not anticipated that our financial condition, the percentage ownership of management,
the number of stockholders, or any aspect of our business will materially change as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
At
the Effective Time (as defined below), each lot of 4 pre-Reverse Stock Split shares of our Common Stock (the “Old Shares”),
as determined by the Board, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will, automatically and without any
further action on the part of our stockholders, be combined into and become one (1) post-Reverse Stock Split share of our Common
Stock (a “New Share”), subject to the treatment for fractional shares described below, and each certificate
which, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented Old Shares will be deemed, for all corporate purposes, to evidence
ownership of New Shares. STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY CERTIFICATE(S) UNTIL
REQUESTED TO DO SO.
The
Reverse Stock Split will be effected simultaneously for all of our then-existing Old Shares and the exchange ratio will be the
same for all of our shares of outstanding our Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split will affect all of our stockholders uniformly
and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership interests in us, subject to the treatment for fractional shares
described below. See “Fractional Shares” below. The New Shares issued pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split will
be fully paid and non-assessable. Except as contemplated by the share classification set forth in our certificate of incorporation,
all New Shares will have the same voting rights and other rights as Old Shares.
A
new CUSIP number will be assigned to our Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock following the Reverse Stock Split.
Commencing
upon effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split, to the extent there are any, all outstanding options, warrants and other
convertible securities entitling holders thereof to purchase shares of our Common Stock would entitle such holders to receive,
upon exercise of their securities, 1/4th of the number of shares of our Common Stock which such holders may purchase
upon exercise or conversion of their securities. In addition, commencing at the Effective Time, the exercise or conversion price
of all outstanding options, warrants and our other convertible securities will be increased 4 times, based on the exchange ratio
of the Reverse Stock Split.
Par
Value Per Share of our Common Stock
As
a consequence of the Reverse Stock Split, the par value per share of our Common Stock will remain at $0.001 per share.
Fractional
Shares
No
scrip or fractional shares will be issued if, as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, a stockholder would otherwise become entitled
to receive a fractional share of our Common Stock. In lieu of issuing fractional shares, the Company will round up to one whole
share of our Common Stock in the event a stockholder would be entitled to receive a fractional share of our Common Stock.
Effect
on Voting Rights of, and Dividends on, our Common Stock
Proportionate
voting rights and other rights of the holders of our Common Stock will not be affected by the Reverse Stock Split. The percentage
of outstanding shares owned by each stockholder prior to the Reverse Stock Split will remain the same, except for adjustment as
a consequence of rounding up of any fractional shares created by the Reverse Stock Split. See “Fractional Shares”
above.
We
do not believe that the Reverse Stock Split will have any effect with respect to future distributions, if any, to our stockholders,
other than in respect of the additional shares issued to all of our stockholders in the Reverse Stock Split as a consequence of
rounding up of any fractional shares created by the Reverse Stock Split.
Effect
on Liquidity
The
decrease in the number of shares of our Class A Common Stock outstanding as a consequence of the Reverse Stock Split may decrease
the liquidity in our Class A Common Stock if the anticipated beneficial effects do not occur. See “Reasons for the Reverse
Stock Split” above.
Certain
U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The
following summary of certain material federal income tax consequences of the Reverse Stock Split does not purport to be a complete
discussion of all of the possible federal income tax consequences and is included for general information only, is not intended
as tax advice to any person and is not a comprehensive description of the tax consequences that may be relevant to each stockholder’s
own particular circumstances. Further, it does not address any state, local, foreign or other income tax consequences, nor does
it address the tax consequences to stockholders that are subject to special tax rules, such as stockholders who are subject to
the alternative minimum tax, banks, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, personal holding companies, stockholders
who are not “United States persons” as defined in section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the “Code”), broker-dealers and tax-exempt entities. This summary is based on the Code, the U.S. Treasury
Department regulations thereunder and proposed regulations, court decisions and current administrative rulings and pronouncements
of the Internal Revenue Service, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary addresses
only those stockholders who hold their Old Shares as “capital assets” as defined in the Code (generally, property
held for investment), and will hold the New Shares as capital assets.
Holders
of our Common Stock are advised to consult their own tax advisers regarding the federal income tax consequences of the Reverse
Stock Split in light of their personal circumstances and the consequences under state, local and foreign tax laws, and also as
to any estate or gift tax considerations.
We
are structuring the Reverse Stock Split in an effort to obtain the following consequences:
|
●
|
the
Reverse Stock Split will qualify as a recapitalization under section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code for U.S. federal income tax
purposes;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
stockholders
should not recognize any gain or loss as a result of the Reverse Stock Split;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
the
aggregate basis of a stockholder’s Old Shares will become the aggregate basis of the New Shares held by such stockholder
immediately after the Reverse Stock Split; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
the
holding period of the New Shares will include the stockholder’s holding period for the Old Shares.
|
The
above discussion is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used by any person, for the purpose of avoiding U.S. federal
tax penalties. It was written solely in connection with the proposed Reverse Stock Split of our Common Stock.
Regulatory
Effects. The Class A Common Stock is currently registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, and the Company is
subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Exchange Act. The proposed Reverse Stock Split would not affect
the registration of the Class A Common Stock under the Exchange Act or the Company’s obligation to publicly file financial
and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If the proposed Reverse Stock Split were implemented, the Class
A Common Stock would continue to trade on the OTCPink tier of the Over-the Counter Market operated by OTC Markets, Inc.
under the symbol “BDGY,” assuming the Company maintains compliance with its listing requirements; however,
the Company would be required to obtain a new CUSIP number associated with post-Reverse Stock Split shares of Class A Common Stock.
.
No
Going Private Transaction. Notwithstanding the decrease in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock following
the proposed Reverse Stock Split, the Board does not intend for this transaction to be the first step in a series of plans or
proposals of a “going private transaction” within the meaning of Rule 13e-3 of the Exchange Act.
The
Proposed Reverse Stock Split May Decrease the Liquidity of the Class A Common Stock. The liquidity of the Class A Common
Stock may be harmed by the proposed Reverse Stock Split given the reduced number of shares of Class A Common Stock that would
be outstanding after the Reverse Stock Split, particularly if the stock price does not increase as a result of the Reverse Stock
Split.
FINRA
Approval
Our
Class A Common Stock is currently quoted on the OTCPink tier of the over -the-counter market operated by OTC Markets Group,
Inc. Accordingly, the Reverse Stock Split will require approval by FINRA pursuant to Rule 10b-17 under the Exchange Act in order
for it to be recognized for trading purposes. Accordingly, the Reverse Stock Split, if implemented will not be made effective
until we receive FINRA’s approval.
INTEREST
OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN THE AMENDMENTS
No
director, executive officer, associate of any director or executive officer or any other person has any substantial interest,
direct or indirect, by security holdings or otherwise, in the Amendments which is not shared by all other stockholders of the
Company.
