A copy of the Articles of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company is attached to this Information Statement as Exhibit A. On May 24, 2004, there were 98,677,406 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, and no shares of our preferred stock issued and outstanding. The Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock. The Board of Directors of the Company, by written consent on May 24, 2004 has approved, and stockholders holding an aggregate of 49,904,429 (approximately 50.6%) of our outstanding common shares on May 24, 2004, have consented in writing to amend the Articles of Incorporation of the Company. Accordingly, all corporate actions necessary to authorize the amendment have been taken. In accordance with the regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company will not become effective until at least 20 days after we have mailed this Information Statement to our stockholders. Promptly following the expiration of this 20-day period, we intend to effect the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation. The change in our authorized capitalization will become effective at the time of filing the Articles of Amendment. Our executive offices are located at 1840 Boy Scout Drive, Fort Myers, Florida 33907. -2- PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THIS IS ONLY AN INFORMATION STATEMENT. WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY. This Information Statement is first being sent or given to the holders of our outstanding common stock, our only class of voting securities outstanding, on or about June___, 2004. Each holder of record of shares of our common stock at the close of business on June ___, 2004 is entitled to receive a copy of this Information Statement. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS The following questions and answers are intended to respond to frequently asked questions concerning the actions approved by our board of directors and a majority of the persons entitled to vote. These questions do not, and are not intended to, address all the questions that may be important to you. You should carefully read the entire Information Statement, as well as its appendices and the documents incorporated by reference in this Information Statement. Q: WHY AREN'T WE HOLDING A MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS? A: The board of directors has already approved the Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation and has received the written consent of a majority of the voting interests entitled to vote on such actions. Under the Delaware General Corporation Act these actions may be approved by the written consent of a majority of the voting interests entitled to vote. Since we have already received written consents representing the necessary number of votes, a meeting is not necessary and represents a substantial and avoidable expense. Q: WHAT ARE THE PURPOSES OF THE AMENDMENT? A: The purposes of the Amendment are to change our name in recognition of our new business strategy and to authorize additional shares of common stock for us to issue to raise capital, for mergers and acquisitions, and to provide compensation that is not payable in cash. Q: HOW WILL THE AMENDMENT AFFECT THE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND EMPLOYEES OF THE COMPANY? A: The officers, directors and employees of the Company will continue in the same capacities after the Amendment as before the Amendment. Q: CAN I REQUIRE YOU TO PURCHASE MY STOCK? A: No. Under the Delaware General Corporation Act, you are not entitled to appraisal and purchase of your stock as a result of the Amendment. -3- Q: WHO WILL PAY THE COSTS OF RECAPITALIZATION? We will pay all of the costs of the Amendment, including distributing this Information Statement. We may also pay brokerage firms and other custodians for their reasonable expenses for forwarding information materials to the beneficial owners of our common stock. We do not anticipate contracting for other services in connection with the Amendment. AMENDMENT OF ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION CHANGE OF NAME On May 24, 2004, our Board of Directors approved an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to change our name to Innova Holdings, Inc. The holders of a majority of our outstanding voting shares approved the name change by written consent. The approval by our Board of Directors and by the majority stockholders is adequate under Delaware law to effect the name change. We believe that it is in the best interest of the Company and our stockholders to continue our operations under a new name. We are in the process of divesting our subsidiary Hy-Tech Computer Systems, Inc., through which we operated our computer customs systems builder business. Management's strategy is to turn the Company into a broader, solutions based provider of technology products and services. Our board believes that the Company would benefit from a change of name that differentiates our discontinued historical business from our new business plan, and reflects our current business. Upon the filing of the Certificate of Amendment, Common Stock certificates that previously represented stock of the Company in the name of Hy-Tech Technology Group, Inc. shall be deemed to represent shares of Innova Holdings, Inc. without any further action by the Common Stockholders of the Company or any other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is requested that stockholders exchange their existing certificates for certificates bearing the name Innova Holdings, Inc. In connection with the name change, we will obtain a new trading symbol and CUSIP number. INCREASE IN AUTHORIZED CAPITAL STOCK Our Articles of Incorporation authorize us to issue 101,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.001 par value. Our board of directors and stockholders holding a majority of our outstanding voting shares have approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to increase our authorized capitalization to 910,000,000 shares, consisting of 900,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.001 par value. The Board believes that the increase in authorized capital stock is desirable in order to provide the Company with a greater degree of flexibility to issue shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock, without the expense and delay of a special stockholders' meeting, in connection with possible future stock dividends or stock splits, equity financings, future opportunities for expanding the business through investments or acquisitions, management incentive and employee benefit plans and for other general corporate purposes. -4- Authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock may be issued at such times, for such purposes and for such consideration as the Board of Directors may determine to be appropriate without further authority from the Company's stockholders, except as otherwise required by applicable law or stock exchange policies. The increase in authorized capital will not have any immediate effect on the rights of existing stockholders. However, the Board will have the authority to issue authorized Common Stock without requiring future stockholder approval of such issuances, except as may be required by applicable law or exchange regulations. To the extent that additional authorized shares are issued in the future, they will decrease the existing stockholders' percentage equity ownership and, depending upon the price at which they are issued, could be dilutive to the existing stockholders. The holders of Common Stock have no preemptive rights. The increase in authorized capital with respect to the authorized number of shares of Common Stock and the subsequent issuance of such shares could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without further action by the stockholders. Shares of authorized and unissued Common Stock could be issued (within the limits imposed by applicable law) in one or more transactions. Any such issuance of additional stock could have the effect of diluting the earnings per share and book value per share of outstanding shares of Common Stock, and such additional shares could be used to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of the Company. We believe the increase in capitalization is beneficial to us in that it will better enable us to raise capital through future sales of our equity securities, engage in merger and acquisition transactions and provide compensation for certain types of services rendered. EFFECTIVE DATE OF AMENDMENT The amendment will become effective upon the filing of the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with the Delaware Department of State. The amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company will not become effective until at least 20 days after we have mailed this Information Statement to our stockholders. Promptly following the expiration of this 20-day period, we intend to effect the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation. The change in our name and increase in our authorized capitalization will become effective at the time of filing the Articles of Amendment. NO DISSENTERS' RIGHTS Holders of our voting securities are not entitled to dissenters' rights with respect to the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation. -5- SECURITIES OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of May 31, 2004, by each person or entity known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of common stock, each of our directors and named executive officers, and all of our directors and executive officers as a group.
