(the “Name Change”).
 
On October 14, 2010, the holders of approximately 75.89% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock executed a written consent adopting and approving the Amendment.  Pursuant to the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”) and the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding voting shares are permitted to approve the Amendment by written consent in lieu of a meeting, provided that notice of such action is given to the other shareholders of the Company.  This written consent assures that the Amendment will occur without your vote.  Pursuant to the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), an information statement must be sent to the holders of voting stock who do not sign the written consent at least 20 days prior to the effective date of the action.  This notice, which is being sent to all holders of record on October 13, 2010 (the “Record Date”), is intended to serve as such notice under Nevada law and as the information statement required by the Exchange Act.
 
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND

INTRODUCTION

We are sending you this information statement to inform you of the adoption of the Amendment on October 14, 2010, by a majority of the shareholders of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock pursuant to a written consent in lieu of a special meeting.  The purpose of the Amendment is to change the name of the Company to China Botanic Pharmaceutical Inc.

VOTE REQUIRED; MANNER OF APPROVAL
 
Approval of an amendment or restatement to the current Articles of Incorporation of the Company under the NRS requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Company. The Company has no class of voting stock outstanding other than the Common Stock (see “Description of Securities”). 
 
Section 78.320 of the NRS provides, in substance, that, unless the Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide otherwise, shareholders may take action without a meeting of shareholders and without prior notice if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding voting stock holding not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to approve such action at a shareholders meeting. Under the applicable provisions of the NRS, this action is effective when written consents from holders of record of a majority of the outstanding shares of voting stock are executed and delivered to the Company. 
 
In accordance with the NRS, the affirmative written consent to the Amendment by holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of voting stock of the Company has been obtained. As a result, no additional vote or proxy is required by the shareholders to approve the adoption of the Amendment.
 
Under Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act, the Amendment cannot take effect until 20 days after this Information Statement is first sent to the Company’s shareholders, currently anticipated to be October __, 2010.  The Amendment will become effective upon its filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, which is anticipated to be on or abouNovember __, 2010.
 
We are not soliciting consents in connection with the election of directors or to approve the Amendment.  Nevada law permits the Company to take any action which may be taken at an annual or special meeting of its stockholders by written consent, if the holders of a majority of the shares of its Common Stock sign and deliver a written consent to the action to the Company.
 
Under Nevada law, stockholders have no appraisal or dissenters’ rights in connection with the election of directors and the Amendment.

AMENDMENT TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION

Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to Change the Name of the Company to China Botanic Pharmaceutical Inc.

The Board of Directors has approved an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation that would change the name of the Company to China Botanic Pharmaceutical Inc. (the “Name Change”).  The name change will occur automatically when the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation is filed with the Nevada Secretary of State (the “Effective Date”) without any action on the part of stockholders.  The Board of Directors believes that by changing our corporate name to China Botanic Pharmaceutical Inc. will more accurately reflect our business focus.

THE AMENDMENT HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, NOR HAS THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE FAIRNESS OR MERIT OF THE AMENDMENT NOR UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT.  ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS UNLAWFUL.
 
PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NEITHER A REQUEST FOR YOUR VOTE NOR A PROXY STATEMENT, BUT RATHER AN INFORMATION STATEMENT DESIGNED TO INFORM YOU OF THE AMENDMENT THAT WILL OCCUR AND TO PROVIDE YOU WITH INFORMATION ABOUT THE AMENDMENT AND THE BACKGROUND OF THESE TRANSACTIONS.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

General
 
As of the Record Date, the Company’s authorized capital consists of an aggregate of 101,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with no par value per share.  As of the Record Date, there were 37,239,536 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and no issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock.  As of the Record Date, there are 1,231,428 warrants to purchase common stock outstanding.  As of the Record Date, there are 3,723,954 shares subject to the Renhuang Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 2003 Omnubus Securities Plan and there are 200,000 shares subject to the 2007  Non-Qualified Company Stock Grant and Option Plan.
 
The following description is based on relevant portions of the Nevada General Corporation Law and on our charter and bylaws. This summary is not necessarily complete, and we refer you to the Nevada General Corporation Law and our charter and bylaws for a more detailed description of the provisions
summarized below.

Common Stock

All shares of our common stock have equal rights as to earnings, assets,  dividends and voting privileges and, when they are issued, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Distributions may be paid to the holders of our common stock if, as and when authorized by our Board
of Directors and declared by us out of assets legally available therefor. Shares of our common stock have no preemptive, conversion or redemption rights and are freely transferable, except where their transfer is restricted by federal and state securities laws or by contract. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of us, each share of our common stock would be entitled to share ratably in all of our assets that are legally available for distribution after we pay all debts and other liabilities and subject to any preferential rights of holders of our preferred stock, if any preferred stock is outstanding at such time. Each share of our common stock is entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors. Except as provided with respect to any other class or series of stock, the holders of our common stock will possess exclusive voting power. There is no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which means that holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock will be able to elect all of our directors, and holders of less than a majority of such shares will be unable to elect any director.  There are no dividend restrictions that limit the Company’s ability to pay dividends on shares of Common Stock in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or bylaws.  Section 78.288 of Chapter 78 of the NRS prohibits the Company from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend: (a) the Company would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or (b) except as may be allowed by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the Company’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if the Company were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders who may have preferential rights and whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution.

Preferred Stock

Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock with designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by our Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue Preferred Stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the Common Stock. In the event of issuance, the Preferred Stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of our authorized Preferred Stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not do so in the future.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth, as of October 13, 2010, information concerning the beneficial ownership of shares of our common stock held by our directors, our named executive officers, our directors and executive officers as a group, and each person known by us to be a beneficial owner of 5% or more of our outstanding common stock.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC.  Beneficial ownership means that a person has or shares voting or investment power of a security and includes any securities that person has the right to acquire within 60 days after the measurement date, such as pursuant to options, warrants or convertible notes.  Except as otherwise indicated, we believe that each of the beneficial owners of our common stock listed below, based on information each of them has given to us, has sole investment and voting power with respect to such beneficial owner’s shares, except where community property or similar laws may apply.  For purposes of the column for shares underlying convertible securities, in accordance with rules of the SEC, shares of our common stock underlying securities that a person has the right to acquire within 60 days of October 13, 2010 are deemed to be beneficially owned by such person for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but we do not treat them as outstanding for the purpose of computing the ownership percentage of any other person.
