OTHER COMPENSATION There are no annuity, pension or retirement benefits proposed to be paid to officers, directors, or employees of the Company in the event of retirement at normal retirement date, as there was no existing plan provided for or contributed to by the Company. STOCK COMPENSATON PLANS 2002 Stock Compensation Plan. Effective August 14, 2002, the Company established the 2002 Stock Compensation Plan (the "Plan") which covers shares issued to eligible participants under the Plan and shares of common stock of the Company issued since September 14, 2001, in reliance on advice from the Company by Suburban Capital Corp. and/or its affiliates. 2001 Employee Stock Compensation Plan. Effective August 27, 2001, the Company established the 2001 Stock Compensation Plan ("2001 Plan"). The purpose of the plan is to compensate employees and certain consultants of the Company for services by issuing to them stock in lieu of cash payments. An aggregate of 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for issuance under the 2001 Plan. 2000-A Employee Stock Compensation Plan. Effective September 11, 2000, the Company established the 2000-A Stock Compensation Plan ("2000-A Plan"). The purpose of the plan is to compensate employees and certain consultants of the Company for services by issuing to them stock in lieu of cash payments. An aggregate of 1,800,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for issuance under the 2000-A Plan. 2000 Employee Stock Compensation Plan. Effective April 27, 2000, the Company established the 2000 Stock Compensation Plan ("2000 Plan"). The purpose of the plan is to compensate employees and certain consultants of the Company for services by issuing to them stock in lieu of cash payments. An aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for issuance under the 2000-A Plan. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS Other than as set forth below, there are no relationships, transactions, or proposed transactions to which the Company was or is to be a party, in which any of the named persons set forth previously had or is to have a direct or indirect material interest. The Company has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Blagman. This agreement is discussed under the Executive Compensation section. Certain of the Officers and Directors of the Company are engaged in other businesses, either individually or through partnerships and corporations in which they have an interest, hold an office, or serve on a board of directors. As a result, certain conflicts of interest may arise between the Company and its Officers and Directors. The Company will attempt to resolve such conflicts of interest in favor of the Company. The Officers and Directors are accountable to the Company and its shareholders as fiduciaries, which requires that such officers and directors exercise good faith and integrity in handling the Company's affairs. A shareholder may be able to institute legal action on behalf of the Company or on behalf of itself and other similarly situated shareholders to recover damages or for other relief in cases of the resolution of conflicts is in any manner prejudicial to the Company. Management believes that its related party transactions were made on terms no less favorable to the Company than that available from unaffiliated parties. It is intended that any future transactions with officers, directors and affiliates of the Company will be made on terms no less favorable from unaffiliated parties. PROPOSAL 2 APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO EFFECT A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT General Because over 17,000,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock are outstanding, the per share price of the Company's common stock as of November 12, 2002 was only $0.00001. In order to reduce the number of shares of common stock outstanding, the Board of Directors has unanimously adopted a resolution seeking stockholder approval to grant the Board of Directors authority to amend the Company's Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse split of the Company's common stock. The ratio of the reverse stock split that the Board of Directors approved and deemed advisable and for which it is seeking stockholder approval is in the range from two thousand-to-one (2,000 to 1) to five thousand-to-one (5,000 to 1), with the exact ratio to be established within this range by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion at the time it elects to effect a split. Approval of this reverse stock split proposal would give the Board of Directors authority to implement the reverse stock split at any time it determined prior to February 1, 2003. In addition, approval of this reverse stock split proposal would also give the Board of Directors authority to decline to implement a reverse stock split prior to such date or at all. If our stockholders approve the reverse stock split proposal and the Board of Directors decides to implement the reverse stock split, the Company will file an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada (as described below) which will effect a reverse split of the shares of the Company's common stock then issued and outstanding at the specific ratio determined by the Board of Directors. The reverse stock split, if implemented, would not change the number of authorized shares of common stock or preferred stock or the par value of the Company's common stock or preferred stock. Except for any changes as a result of the treatment of fractional shares, each stockholder will hold the same percentage of common stock outstanding immediately prior to the reverse stock split as such stockholder did immediately prior to the split. Purpose Since March 2000, market prices for stocks trading in the U.S. markets have generally declined, while the already large number of shares of the Company's common stock outstanding has only grown. In order to reduce the number of shares of the Company's common stock outstanding and thereby attempt to proportionally raise the per share price of the Company's common stock, the Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interests of the Company's stockholders for the Board of Directors to obtain the authority to implement a reverse stock split. The Board of Directors is seeking stockholder approval of the authority to implement a reverse stock split because it believes that a higher stock price may help generate investor interest in the Company and help the Company attract and retain employees and other service providers. The Board of Directors believes that institutional investors and investment funds are generally reluctant to invest in lower priced stocks. Accordingly, the Board of Directors concluded that reducing the number of outstanding shares of the Company's common stock might be desirable in order to attempt to support a higher stock price per share based on the Company's current market capitalization. In addition, the Board of Directors considered that the Company's common stock is not appealing to brokerage firms that do not recommend lower priced securities to their clients. Investors may also be dissuaded from purchasing lower priced stocks because the brokerage commissions, as a percentage of the total transaction, tend to be higher for such stocks. The Board of Directors believes that stockholder approval of an exchange ratio range (rather than an exact exchange ration) provides the Board of Directors with maximum flexibility to achieve the purposes of the reverse stock split. If the shareholders approve the reverse stock split proposal, the reverse stock split will be effected, if at all, only upon a determination by the Board of Directors that the reverse stock split is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders at that time. In connection with any determination to effect a reverse stock split, the Board of Directors will set the timing for such a split and select the specific range ratio with the range. These determinations will be made by the Board of Directors to create the greatest marketability of the Company's common stock based on prevailing market conditions at the time. No further action on the part of stockholders will be required to either implement or abandon the reverse stock split. If the Board of Directors does not implement a reverse stock split prior to February 1, 2003, the authority granted in this proposal to implement a reverse stock split on these terms will terminate. The Board of Directors reserves its right to elect not to proceed with the reverse stock split if it determines, in its sole discretion, that the split is no longer in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Certain Risks Associated With the Reverse Stock Split There can be no assurance that the total market capitalization of the Company's common stock after the proposed reverse stock split will be equal to or greater than the total market capitalization before the proposed reverse stock split or that the per share market price of the Company's common stock following the reverse stock split will either exceed or remain higher than the current per share market price. There can be no assurance that the market price per new share of the Company common stock (the "New Shares") after the reverse stock split will rise or remain constant in proportion to the reduction in the number of old shares of the Company common stock (the "Old Shares") outstanding before the reverse stock split. Accordingly, the total market capitalization of the Company's common stock after the proposed reverse stock split may be lower than the total market capitalization before the proposed reverse stock split and, in the future, the market price of the Company's common stock following the reverse stock split may not exceed or remain higher than the market price prior to the proposed reverse stock split. In many cases, the total market capitalization of a company following a reverse stock split is lower than the total market capitalization before the reverse stock split. There can be no assurance that the reverse stock split will result in a per share price that will attract investors and brokers. While the Board of Directors believes that a higher stock price may help generate investor interest, there can be no assurance that the reverse stock split will result in a per share price that will attract investors and brokers. There can be no assurance that the reverse stock split will result in a per share price that will increase the Company's ability to attract and retain employees and other service providers. While the Board of Directors believes that a higher stock price may help the Company attract and retain employees and other service providers who are less likely to work for a company with a low stock price, there can be no assurance that the reverse stock split will result in a per share price that will increase the Company's ability to attract and retain employees and other service providers. A decline in the market price for the Company's common stock after the reverse stock split may result in a greater percentage decline than would occur in the absence of a reverse stock split, and the liquidity of the Company's common stock could be adversely affected following a reverse stock split. The market price of the Company's common stock will also be based on the Company's performance and other factors, some of which are unrelated to the number of shares outstanding. If the reverse stock split is effected and the market price of the Company's common stock declines, the percentage decline as an absolute number and as a percentage of the Company's overall market capitalization may be greater than would occur in the absence of a reverse stock split. In many cases, both the total market capitalization of a company and the market price of a share of such company's common stock following a reverse stock split are lower than they were before the reverse stock split. Furthermore, the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the reverse stock split could adversely affect the liquidity of the Company's common stock. Principal Effects of the Reverse Stock Split Corporate Matters. If approved and effected, the reverse stock split would have the following effects: Old Shares owned by a shareholder would be exchange for one (1) New Share. The number of shares of the Company's common stock issued and outstanding will be reduced proportionately based upon the reverse stock split ratio selected by the Board of Directors. Based upon the reverse stock split ratio, proportionate adjustments will be made to the per share exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding options and warrants entitling the holders thereof to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, which will result in approximately the same aggregate price being required to be paid for such options or warrants upon exercise of such options or warrants immediately preceding the reverse stock split. A proportionate adjustment to the exercise price payable upon the exercise of the preferred share purchase rights granted to the stockholders of the Company pursuant to the Company's Preferred Stock Rights Agreement will be effected pursuant to the terms of the Preferred Stock Rights Agreement based upon the reverse stock split ratio. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the Company's existing stock option plans and employee stock purchase plans will be reduced proportionately based on the reverse stock split ratio selected by the Board of Directors If approved and effected, the reverse stock split will be effected simultaneously for all of the Company's common stock and the ratio will be the same for all of the Company's common stock. The reverse stock split will affect all of the Company's stockholders uniformly and will not affect any stockholder's percentage ownership interests in the Company, except to the extent that the reverse stock split results in any of the Company's stockholders owning a fractional share. As described below, stockholders holding fractional shares will be rounded up. Fractional Shares. No scrip or fractional certificates will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares because they hold a number of Old Shares not evenly divisible by the number selected by the Board of Directors for the reverse stock split ratio will have his or her shares rounded up to the nearest whole number. Authorized Shares. Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, the number of authorized shares of common stock that are not issued or outstanding would increase due to the reduction in the number of shares of the Company's common stock issued and outstanding based on the reverse stock split by the Board of Directors. As of November 12, 2002, the Company had 20,000,000,000 shares of common stock authorized and 17,381,593,667 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Authorized but unissued shares will be available for issuance, and the Company may issue such shares in financings or otherwise. If the Company issues additional shares, the ownership interest of holders of the Company's common stock may also be diluted. Also, the issued shares may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the Company's common stock. Accounting Matters. The reverse stock split will not affect the par value of the Company's common stock. As a result, as of the effective time of the reverse stock split, the stated capital on the Company's balance sheet attributable to the Company's common stock will be reduced proportionately based on the reverse stock split, and the additional paid-in capital account will be credited with the amount by which the stated capital is reduced. The per share net income or loss and net book value of the Company's common stock will be restated because there will be fewer shares of the Company's common stock outstanding. Potential Anti-Takeover Effect. Although the increased proportion of unissued authorized shares to issued shares could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect (for example, by permitting issuances that would dilute the stock ownership of a person seeking to effect a change in the composition of the Company's Board of Directors or contemplating a tender offer or other transaction for the combination of the Company with another company), the reverse stock split proposal is not being proposed in response to any effort of which we are aware to accumulate the Company's shares of common stock or obtain control of the Company, nor is it part of a plan by management to recommend a series of similar amendments to the Company's Board of Directors and stockholders. Other than the proposals contained herein, the Company's Board of Directors does not currently contemplate recommending the adoption of any other amendments to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation that could be construed to affect the ability of third parties to take over or change the control of the Company. Procedure for Effecting Reverse Stock Split and Exchange of Stock Certificates If the stockholders approve the proposal to authorize the Board of Directors to implement the reverse stock split and the Board of Directors decides to implement the reverse stock split, the Company will file an Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation ("Amended Certificate") with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to amend its existing Certificate of Incorporation. The reverse stock split will become effective at the time specified in the Amended Certificate, which is referred to below as the "effective time." Beginning at the effective time, each certificate representing Old Shares will be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of New Shares. The text of the Amended Certificate to effect the reverse stock split, if implemented by the Board of Directors, would be in substantially the form attached hereto as Appendix A; provided, however, that the text of the form of Amended Certificate attached hereto is subject to modification to include such changes as may be required by the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada and as the Board of Directors deems necessary and advisable to effect the reverse stock split, including the insertion of the effective time and the applicable reverse stock split ratio determined by the Board of Directors. As soon as practicable after the effective time, stockholders will be notified that the reverse stock split has been effected. The Company expects that its transfer agent, Signature Stock Transfer, Inc., will act as exchange agent for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock certificates. Holders of Old Shares will be asked to surrender to the exchange agent certificates representing Old Shares in exchange for certificates representing New Shares in accordance with the procedures to be set forth in the letter of transmittal the Company sends to its stockholders. No new certificates will be issued to a stockholder until such stockholder has surrendered such stockholder's outstanding certificate(s), together with the properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, to the exchange agent. Any Old Shares submitted for transfer, whether pursuant to a sale, other disposition or otherwise, will automatically be exchanged for New Shares. STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE (S) AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY CERTIFICATE (S) UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO. No Dissenters' Rights Under the Nevada Law, the Company's stockholders are not entitled to dissenters' rights with respect to the reverse stock split, and the Company will not independently provide stockholders with any such right. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split The following is a 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 of the reverse stock split and is included for general information only. Further, it does not address any state, local or foreign income or other tax consequences. Also, it does not address the tax consequences to holders that are subject to special tax rules, such as banks, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, personal holding companies, foreign entities, nonresident alien individuals, broker-dealers and tax-exempt entities. The discussion is based on the provisions of the United States federal income tax law as of the date hereof, which is subject to change retroactively as well as prospectively. This summary also assumes that the Old Shares were, and the New Shares will be, held as a "capital asset," as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (i.e., generally, property held for investment). The tax treatment of a stockholder may vary depending upon the particular facts and circumstances of such stockholder. Each stockholder is urged to consult with such stockholder's own tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences of the reverse stock split. Other than additional shares received by shareholders on account of rounding up for fractional shares discussed below, no gain or loss should be recognized by a stockholder upon such stockholder's exchange of Old Shares for New Shares pursuant to the reverse stock split. The aggregate tax basis of the New Shares received in the reverse stock split will be the same as the stockholder's aggregate tax basis in the Old Shares exchanged therefore. In general, stockholders who receive additional shares on account of rounding up for their fractional share interests in the New Shares as a result of the reverse stock split will recognize gain or loss based on their adjusted basis in the fractional share interests redeemed. The Company's view regarding the tax consequences of the reverse stock split is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or the courts. ACCORDINGLY, EACH STOCKHOLDER SHOULD CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO ALL OF THE POTENTIAL TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HIM OR HER OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THIS PROPOSAL PROPOSAL 3 APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THE COMPANY The Company seeks shareholder approval to amend its Certificate of Incorporation to change its name from Blagman Media International, Inc. to Innovation Holdings, Inc. The primary reasons for the proposed name change are to better clarify the identity of the Company and to reflect the fact that the Company has evolved into a substantially larger, more diverse enterprise than it was originally. We envision Blagman Media International, Inc. will become Innovation Holdings, Inc. a holding company that owns, directly and indirectly, a diverse group of companies and other businesses. The principal company currently owned by the Company is Century Media f/k/a Blagman-Century Media, a national ad agency and media buying company focusing in the area of direct response. As a result of the constant references to the name "Blagman", individuals are sometimes unclear as to which company they are speaking with or about. A new name will help clarify the Company's corporate identity and make it clearer to people how to refer to our subsidiary and how to refer to the Company. Eventually, we would like to create an operating subsidiary to retain the "Blagman" name so that the Company will continue to benefit from the brand equity that has been built over the years. In addition to a new name the Company will apply for a new ticker symbol for its stock exchange listings. The Company believes that the proposed new name, together with a new ticker symbol to accompany it, embrace important qualities that are critical to its success now and in the future. If shareholder approval of the name change is granted, the Board will retain the discretion to determine when to effect the name change. A copy of the proposed amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation is attached as Appendix B to this proxy statement. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THIS PROPOSAL PROPOSAL 4 RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED ACCOUNTANTS The Board of Directors believes it is appropriate to submit for approval by its shareholders its appointment of Weinberg and Company as the Company's independent public accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2003. Representatives of Weinberg and Company are not expected to be present at the Meeting, but will be available by telephone and provided with the opportunity to make a statement (if they choose to do so) and to be available to respond to questions regarding these and any other appropriate matters.
