IN LIEU OF A MEETING
Dear Stockholders,
This Notice and the accompanying Information Statement are being provided
on or about [insert date], 2025, by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of KwikClick Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”),

of business on January 17, 2025 (the “Record Date”). This communication is for informational purposes only, in compliance
with Section 14C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the applicable rules and regulations.
The purpose of this Information Statement is to notify the Corporation’s
stockholders of certain actions approved by the written consent of the holders of a majority of the Corporation’s outstanding voting
stock (the “Majority Stockholders”) on February 3, 2025, in lieu of a meeting. These actions will become effective twenty
(20) calendar days after the date this Information Statement is mailed to stockholders.
The Majority Stockholders, through a Written Consent completely executed
on February 3, 2025 (the “Written Consent”), granted the Board discretionary authority, at a time to be determined by the
Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer, to amend the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation to implement a reverse stock
split of the Corporation’s issued and outstanding Common Stock. This reverse split will occur at a ratio of 1-for-40 and reducing
the total number of authorized shares of Common Stock to 50,000,000 from 400,000,000 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The exact
timing and execution of the Reverse Stock Split will be determined by the Board.
The Board has determined that it would not be in the best interests
of the Corporation or its stockholders to incur the additional expense of soliciting proxies or consents from other stockholders in connection
with these actions.
THIS IS NOT A NOTICE OF A MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS. NO STOCKHOLDERS
MEETING WILL BE HELD TO CONSIDER THE MATTERS DESCRIBED HEREIN.
THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT IS PROVIDED SOLELY FOR YOUR INFORMATION.

THIS IS NOT A NOTICE OF A MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
AND NO STOCKHOLDERS MEETING WILL BE HELD TO CONSIDER ANY MATTER DESCRIBED HEREIN.
THE ACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT
HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY A MAJORITY OF THE VOTING POWER OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE
REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY.
GENERAL INFORMATION
This Information Statement is being provided to the shareholders
of KwikClick, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), to inform
them of the corporate action described herein. The action has been authorized by the written consent of shareholders holding a majority
of the Company’s voting stock, in accordance with Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) and the
Company’s Bylaws.
This Information Statement will be first mailed to shareholders
on or about February __, 2025, and is being furnished solely for informational purposes. The Company is not soliciting proxies or requesting
any action from shareholders regarding the corporate actions described in this Information Statement. No further action is required from
shareholders in connection with these matters.
The close of business on January 17, 2025, has been established
as the record date (the “Record Date”) for determining the stockholders entitled to receive this Information Statement. The
corporate action involves amending the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to decrease the number of authorized shares of common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), from 400,000,000 to 50,000,000. This amendment is referred to in this
Information Statement as the “Action.”
Pursuant to Section 228 of the DGCL, any action that may be
taken at a meeting of shareholders of a Delaware corporation may also be taken without a meeting, without prior notice, and without a
vote, if written consents setting forth the action taken are signed by shareholders holding at least a majority of the voting power.
Fred W. Cooper, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, beneficially
owns 76,418,323 shares of Common Stock through Cooper Family Investments 2.0, LP, an entity over which he exercises voting control. These
shares represent approximately 49.1% of our outstanding voting stock. On the Record Date, Mr. Cooper executed and delivered to us a written
consent authorizing and approving the Action.
In addition, the Action was approved by the following shareholders:
· |
Chandler Family Investments 2.0 LLC, which owns 7,400,000 shares of Common Stock (approximately
4.75%) and is controlled by Ian Chandler. |
· |
Mark Wilson,
who owns 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (approximately 3.21%). |
· |
Brady Cooper, who owns 4,030,000 shares of Common Stock (approximately 2.59%). |
Collectively, these shareholders represent an additional 16,430,000
shares of Common Stock, or approximately 10.72% of the Company’s outstanding voting stock.
As a result, the Action has been approved by shareholders holding
a majority of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. No further vote or action by shareholders is required
to approve the Action. This Information Statement serves as notice of the approval of the Action by less than unanimous written consent
of our stockholders.
In accordance with applicable regulations, the Action will
not become effective until at least 20 days after the first mailing of this Information Statement to shareholders. Furthermore, shareholders
do not have dissenter’s rights in connection with this Action.
On February 3, 2025, our Board of Directors approved the amendment
to the Certificate of Incorporation to decrease the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 400,000,000 to 50,000,000 and authorized
the delivery of this Information Statement to shareholders.
Interest
of Persons in Matters to be Acted Upon
No officer,
director or principal stockholder has a substantial or material interest in the favorable outcome of the Actions other than as discussed
herein.
OUTSTANDING VOTING SECURITIES
As of the Record Date, there were
155,648,706 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and no preferred stock. Therefore, as of the Record Date, our issued and outstanding
voting securities for the Action consisted of shares of Common Stock which is our only class of stock outstanding. As such, the written
consent of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock was necessary to authorize the Action described herein.
INFORMATION ON CONSENTING SHAREHOLDER
Pursuant to Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”),
any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of stockholders of a Delaware corporation may instead be taken without a meeting,
without prior notice, and without a vote, provided that written consents, setting forth the action to be taken, are signed by stockholders
holding at least a majority of the voting power.
As of the Record Date, Fred W. Cooper, Ian Chandler, Mark Wilson, and
Brady Cooper, through entities over which they exercise voting control, collectively owned 85,348,323 shares of Common Stock, representing
approximately 54.83% of the Company’s outstanding voting stock. These shareholders executed and delivered a written consent approving
and authorizing the Action described in this Information Statement.
ACTION 1: TO DECREASE THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED
SHARES OF FROM 400,000,000 TO 50,000,000
The first corporate action described in this Information Statement
is the amendment of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to decrease the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, par
value $0.0001 per share, from 400,000,000 to 50,000,000 (the “Amendment”).
On February 3, 2025, our Board of Directors approved the Amendment,
subject to the approval of shareholders holding a majority of the Company’s outstanding capital stock (the “Majority Shareholders”)
as described in the “Information on Consenting Shareholders” section above. The Majority Shareholders approved the Amendment
by written consent on February 3, 2025. The Amendment will become effective upon the filing of the Certificate of Amendment of Certificate
of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. This filing will occur promptly following the 20th day after the
mailing of the definitive Information Statement (the “Definitive Information Statement”) to shareholders.
Under the current Certificate of Incorporation, the Company is authorized
to issue 400,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, each with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Following
the Amendment, the number of authorized shares of Common Stock will be reduced to 50,000,000, while the authorized Preferred Stock will
remain unchanged.
As of the date of approval by our Board of Directors and Majority Shareholders,
there were 155,648,706 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.
ACTION 2: 1-FOR-40 REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
In addition to approving the Amendment, our Board of Directors adopted
resolutions, subsequently approved by the Majority Shareholders, to implement a recapitalization of the issued and outstanding shares
of Common Stock. The recapitalization will involve a reverse stock split on a 1-for-40 basis, whereby shareholders will receive one share
of Common Stock for every 40 shares currently held. The reverse split is to be effected no later than December 31, 2025. Fractional shares
will not be issued in connection with the reverse split; any fractional shares will be rounded down to the nearest whole share.
Following the reverse stock split, 155,648,706 issued and outstanding
shares of Common Stock will be reduced to approximately 3,891,218 shares, subject to adjustments for rounding and not reversing below
1 share per shareholder.
Reasons for the reverse stock split
Management believes that the reverse stock split is in the
best interest of the Company for several reasons:
| 1. | Improved Market Perception: By reducing the total number of outstanding shares, the reverse split aims to alleviate the perceived
depressive effect that a large number of shares may have on the public market price of our common stock. |
| | |
| 2. | Enhanced Financial Flexibility: The reverse split will make a significant number of authorized but unissued shares of common
stock available. This increased flexibility will allow the Company to efficiently: |
| · | Structure potential future financing, |
| · | Capitalize on business opportunities, such as acquisitions, and |
| · | Address other corporate needs as they arise, all without the time and expense of convening a shareholder meeting to authorize additional
shares. |
| 3. | Positioning for Uplisting: One of the Company’s strategic goals is to have its securities listed on NASDAQ or another
national stock exchange. A higher stock price is often a prerequisite for such listings. By reducing the number of outstanding shares,
the reverse split is expected to have the effect of increasing the market price of the Company’s common stock, thereby improving
the Company’s eligibility for listing on a national exchange. |
Management believes these benefits will collectively strengthen
the Company’s financial position, enhance shareholder value, and support the Company’s long-term strategic objectives.
Effect of the reverse stock split
The reverse stock split will not alter the rights of existing stockholders,
nor will it result in the elimination of any stockholder. Fractional shares will not be issued; instead, any fractional shares will be
rounded down to the nearest whole share, with no stockholder holding fewer than one share. However, stockholders with fewer than 100 shares
of common stock may experience higher commission costs relative to the value of their shares when selling, potentially resulting in transaction
costs exceeding the value of the shares sold.
The reverse stock split is not being undertaken as part of any anti-takeover
strategy. The decrease in authorized shares of common stock did not arise from any knowledge of specific efforts to accumulate the Company’s
securities or to gain control through a merger, tender offer, proxy solicitation, or similar actions. Furthermore, this action was not
intended to frustrate any such efforts or to prevent another party from acquiring a controlling interest or seeking representation on
the Board of Directors.
The issuance of additional shares of common stock following the reverse
split could dilute earnings per share as well as the equity and voting power of existing stockholders. Such issuance may also adversely
impact the market price of our common stock. However, if additional shares are issued in connection with favorable business opportunities,
such transactions could enhance the market price of our stock.
Stockholder Rights:
| · | Voting Rights: Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. |
| | |
| · | Dividends: Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if and when declared by the Board of Directors, out of
funds legally available for distribution. To date, the Company has not declared or paid dividends and currently anticipates retaining
all earnings, if any, to support the development and growth of the business. Future dividend declarations will be determined at the discretion
of the Board, considering factors such as earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, and other relevant considerations. |
