Action by Majority Shareholders

A majority of the Company’s shareholders that collectively own 85.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, specifically Yilaime Corporation, which own 13,756,216 shares, or 37.14%, of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, and the Alton & Xiang Mei Lin Perkins Family Trust, which owns 17,948,939 shares, or 48.46% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock (collectively the “Majority Shareholders”) have consented to the following actions recommended by the Board of Directors (the “Actions”):

| · | Action No. 1: On June 19, 2017, the Majority Shareholders consented to the Company’s execution of the Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation, amending its Articles by increasing its total shares of authorized common stock from 100,000,000 shares at par value of $0.0001 to 200,000,000 shares at par value of $0.0001 (the “Share Increase”);

As of the close of business on July 5, 2017, we had 37,035,539 shares of Common Stock outstanding of the Company. Each share of outstanding Common Stock is entitled to one vote. Because the Majority Shareholders already consented to the Actions described herein, your consent is not required and is not being solicited in connection with the approval of the aforementioned Actions.

-4-

THIS IS NOT A NOTICE OF A MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS AND NO STOCKHOLDERS’ MEETING WILL BE HELD TO CONSIDER ANY MATTER DESCRIBED HEREIN.

THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT IS BEING FURNISHED TO YOU SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF INFORMING YOU OF THE MATTERS DESCRIBED HEREIN.

STOCKHOLDERS’ RIGHTS

The elimination of the need for a special meeting of the stockholders to approve the Actions described in this Information Sheet is authorized by Section 228 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). Section 228 provides that, unless otherwise provided in a company’s articles of incorporation, action taken at an annual or special meeting may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice, and without a vote, if consents are signed by shareholders that constitute a majority of the votes of issued and outstanding common stock in the company.

THE SHARE AMENDMENTS

Overview of the Share Amendments

Pursuant to Article III, Section 8 of the Bylaws of the Company, the Majority Shareholders approved the recommendation of the Board of Directors to increase the Company’s total authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 shares at par value of $0.0001 to 200,000,000 shares at par value of $0.0001. As of the date of this filing, the Company has 37,035,539 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The increase in the authorized shares is memorialized in the Consent of Shareholders in Lieu of Meeting dated June 19, 2017 and the Board of Directors’ Resolution dated the same day. Both are attached hereto.

Additionally, the Majority Shareholders approved the recommendation of the Board of Directors to effectuate a one-to-four stock split, meaning that every share currently held by a stockholder will be split into four new shares without any affirmative action on behalf of the stockholders. These actions are outlined in the Consent of Shareholders in Lieu of Meeting dated July 7, 2017 and the Board of Directors’ Resolution dated the same day, attached hereto.

Reasons for the Share Amendments

The Share Amendments were made for the purpose of facilitating the Plan of Merger, discussed below. In order to merge the Company and ATI Modular, a one-to-four stock split was necessary in order to allow for an equal stock exchange when the Company’s common stock is exchanged for ATI Modular common stock. However, the one-to-four split could not be effectuated without increasing the total number of authorized shares, since a one-to-four stock split would have exceeded the Company’s 100,000,000 authorized shares of common stock prior to the Company’s amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation to increase its authorized shares to 200,000,000 shares at $0.0001 par value. Thus, the Board of Directors proposed Action 1, or the Share Increase, in order to facilitate the one-to-four stock split. Thereafter, the Board of Directors proposed Action 2, or the Stock Split, in order to meet the conditions precedent prior to the closing of the Plan of Merger and the ultimate merging of the Company into ATI Modular.

In the interim, the Company also believes that the proposed Stock Split may result in a broader market for the Company’s common stock. The expected decreased price level may encourage interest and trading in the common stock prior to the effectuation of the Plan of Merger. However, the majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock is restricted from transfer, and of the 2,024,636 registered shares, no market presently exists for their exchange. The Stock Split may promote greater liquidity for the Company’s stockholders, although such liquidity could be adversely affected by the increased number of shares of common stock outstanding after the Stock Split.

Effect of the Share Amendments

The Share Amendments will become effective approximately 20 days after this Information Statement has been distributed to the Company's stockholders. Specifically, the Certificate of Amendment memorializing the Stock Split will be filed with the State of Delaware 20 days after this Information Statement is distributed, and will be deemed effective upon filing. Thereafter, the one-to-four stock split will be automatically effective without any further action by any shareholder.

If the Share Amendments are effectuated as planned, the Company’s shareholders will receive four shares for every one share they currently own, thus increasing each shareholder’s total holdings four times over.

THE PLAN OF MERGER

Overview of the Plan of Merger

The Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Plan of Merger and the First Amendment to the Plan of Merger dated July 14, 2017 collectively “Plan of Merger”) is an agreement entered into between the Company and ATI Modular, the Company’s subsidiary. ATI Modular is a Nevada corporation and a publicly reporting company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is publicly traded on the Over-the-Counter Marketplace, which is governed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, under the trading symbol “ATMO.”

The Plan of Merger outlines the merger between the Company and ATI Modular. The Company is defined as the “Merging Entity” while ATI Modular is defined as the “Surviving Entity.” Pursuant to the merger, the Company will merge into ATI Modular to increase operational efficiency and to increase shareholder value. Additionally, shareholders of the Company will have their shares exchanged on a pro rata basis with ATI Modular shares. ATI Modular, being traded over-the-counter, provides former shareholders of the Company with a resource to sell or transfer their shares.

The Surviving Entity will be named ATI holdings, Inc., and will assume the contracts and liabilities of the Company and ATI Modular. The Surviving Entity will, if necessary, develop separate committees to address commitments or business of ATI Modular and the Company. It is estimated that this Plan of Merger will be deemed effective 20 days after this Information Statement is distributed to shareholders of the Company.

Reasons for the Plan of Merger

The Company has an interest in registering its shares with a national market, such as the OTC Markets Group. In researching the most cost-effective ways to move forward with registration, it became apparent that merging into ATI Modular, the Company’s subsidiary, which was already trading over-the-counter, would provide two benefits to the Company’s shareholders.

First, it would allow for the Company’s issued and outstanding shares to be exchanged with the shares of ATI Modular and traded on OTCPink under the symbol “ATMO.” This allows for the Company’s investors to have greater liquidity and allows shareholders to enter a marketplace where they more easily transfer their shares, subject to all applicable federal and state regulations.

Second, by merging operations, the Company and ATI Modular will benefit from a decrease in operational costs. Presently, both entities have reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act, resulting in duplicative reporting. By merging the entities, the Company and ATI Modular eliminate the duplicative work, resulting in decreased administrative and professional costs. Though not guaranteed, the Plan of Merger would ideally allow for the Surviving Entity to be more profitable, have less overhead, increasing shareholder value.

Effect of the Plan of Merger

The Plan of Merger will result in the Company merging into ATI Modular. ATI Modular will amend its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to ATI Holdings, Inc. The Surviving Entity will assume the obligations and assets of the Company and shareholders of the Company will have their shares exchanged on a pro rata basis. Thus, once the Plan of Merger is complete, the remaining entity—ATI Holdings, Inc.—will be trading on the OTCPink using the symbol “ATMO.”

This Plan of Merger is entered into in accordance with the DGCL and the Nevada Revised Statutes.
