GENERAL INFORMATION
To the Holders of Common Stock of Labor Smart, Inc.:
This Information Statement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is being furnished, pursuant to Section 14C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to the holders (the “Stockholders”) of common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”), of Labor Smart, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company ”), to notify the Stockholders that on January 13, 2016, the Company received a written consent in lieu of a meeting (the “Written Consent”) from one holder of Common Stock. This holder (the “Majority Shareholder”) holds 2,682,070,718 shares of Common Stock and fifty-one (51) shares of the Company’s Series A preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”), which represents 10,892,694,590 votes of the Company’s voting equity, or approximately 67.66% of all voting power. The Majority Stockholder authorized the Company, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, to take the following action:
· | Decrease the authorized capital stock by up to twelve billion (12,000,000,000) shares (the “Shares Decrease”). |
On January 13, 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company (“Board”) approved this action and recommended to the Majority Stockholder that he likewise approve. On January 13, 2016, the Majority Stockholder approved the Shares Decrease by written consent in lieu of a meeting in accordance with the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”). Accordingly, your consent is not required and is not being solicited in connection with the approval of this action.
We will mail the Notice of Stockholder Action by Written Consent to the Stockholders on or about February ____, 2016.

INTRODUCTION
Section 78.320 of the NRS provides that the written consent of the holders of outstanding shares of voting capital stock having not less than the minimum number of votes which would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted can approve an action in lieu of conducting a special stockholders' meeting convened for the specific purpose of such action. The NRS, however, requires that in the event an action is approved by written consent, a company must provide prompt notice of the taking of any corporate action without a meeting to the stockholders of record who have not consented in writing to such action and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to a company.
In accordance with the foregoing, we will mail the Notice of Stockholder Action by Written Consent on or about February ____, 2016. This Information Statement contains a brief summary of the material aspects of the Shares Decrease approved by the Board of Labor Smart, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) and the Majority Stockholder who holds a majority of the voting capital stock of the Company.
Common Stock
As of January 13, 2016, there were issued and outstanding 7,889,025,889 shares of Common Stock and 16,099,699,761 total votes eligible for voting. Pursuant to Section 78.320 of the NRS, at least a majority of the voting equity of the Company, or at least 8,049,849,881 votes, is required to approve the Shares Decrease by written consent. The Majority Stockholder, who holds 10,892,694,590 votes of the Company’s voting equity (approximately 67.66% of the total voting equity), has voted in favor of the Shares Decrease, thereby satisfying the requirement under Section 78.320 of the NRS that at least a majority of the voting equity vote in favor of a corporate action by written consent.
The following table sets forth the name of the Majority Stockholders, the number of shares of Common Stock, the total number of shares that the Majority Stockholders voted in favor of the Shares Decrease, and the percentage of the issued and outstanding voting equity of the Company voted in favor thereof.
Name of Majority Shareholder |
Number of Shares of Common Stock Owned by Shareholder | Number of Shares of Preferred Stock Owned by Shareholder | Number of Votes Held by Shareholder | Number of Votes that Voted in Favor of the Actions | Percentage of the Voting Equity that Voted in Favor of the Action (1) | ||||||||||
Ryan Schadel | 2,682,020,718 | 51 | 10,892,694,590 | 10,892,694,590 | 67.66% | ||||||||||
Total | 2,682,020,718 | 51 | 10,892,694,590 | 10,892,694,590 | 67.66% |
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
The Shares Decrease will become effective on the date that we file Certificates of Amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, (the “Amendment(s)”), with the State of Nevada. The Board of Directors will determine the exact amount of the Share Decrease and may elect to decrease the authorized shares in one or more Certificates of Amendment at its discretion. We intend to file the Amendments with the State of Nevada when the Board of Directors deems it to be appropriate and advisable, but in no event earlier than the twentieth (20th) day following the date on which this Information Statement is mailed to the Stockholders.

DECREASE AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
The number of authorized capital stock will be decreased by up to twelve billion (12,0000,000,000) shares. The Board of Directors will determine the exact amount of the Share Decrease at its discretion The Board of Directors believes the Shares Decrease is necessary and advisable in order to maintain our financing and capital raising ability.
The purpose of the decrease in Common Stock is to reduce the proportion of unissued authorized shares to issued shares. The Board believes that following the effective date of filing amendments with the State of Nevada, the Company will continue to have sufficient additional authorized but unissued shares of capital stock in order to provide flexibility for corporate action in the future. The Company has no specific understandings, arrangements or agreements with respect to any future acquisitions that would require the issue of a material amount of new shares of its Common Stock.
The decrease in authorized Common Stock will not have any immediate effect on the rights of existing stockholders, but may have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders if additional shares are later issued. The Shares Decrease will not result in a change to the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the time of its execution.
We are not decreasing our authorized Common Stock to construct or enable any anti-takeover defense or mechanism on behalf of the Company. While it is possible that management could use the common shares to resist or frustrate a third-party transaction providing an above-market premium that is favored by a majority of the independent stockholders, we have no intent or plan to employ unissued authorized shares as an anti-takeover device.
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following tables set forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of January 13, 2016, of (i) each person known to us to beneficially own more than 5% of our stock, (ii) our directors, (iii) each named executive officer, and (iv) all directors and named executive officers as a group. As of January 13, 2016, there were a total of 7,889,025,889 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.

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.
This Information Statement is provided to the holders of Common Stock of the Company only for information purposes in connection with the Shares Decrease, pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 14c-2 of the Exchange Act. Please carefully read this Information Statement.
