PROPOSAL 1
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
The Board of Directors of the Company has nominated and recommends FOR
election as directors the six persons named below, all of whom are currently
serving as directors of the Company. The enclosed Proxy will be voted FOR the
persons nominated unless otherwise indicated. If any of the nominees should be
unable to serve or should decline to do so, the discretionary authority provided
in the Proxy will be exercised by the present Board of Directors to vote for a
substitute, or substitutes, to be designated by the Board of Directors. The
Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any substitute nominee, or
nominees, will be required.
Each shareholder may cast one vote for each share held by him multiplied by
the number of directors to be elected, but may not cast more votes than the
number of shares owned for any candidate and therefore a simple majority of the
shares represented and voting will elect all of the directors. The candidates
receiving the highest number of votes, up to the number of directors to be
elected, will be elected.
The Proxy may not be voted for more than six persons.
INFORMATION REGARDING NOMINEES

</TABLE>
(1) Compensation paid in the form of shares of Common Stock of the Company.
Mr. Swanson and Mr. Beener joined the Company in 1998 and Mr. Montulli
joined the Company in January 1999, and accordingly, compensation as related to
prior years is not applicable. During 1998 and through 1999, each of the
officers and directors have received either part or all of their compensation in
the form of Common Stock of the Company or options to purchase shares of common
stock of the Company in order to ease the burden on the Company's cash position.
It is anticipated that said practice will continue until such time as the
Company's cash position improves.
The Company issued stock options to Mr. Montulli, Mr. Swanson, and Mr.
Beener as follows: Mr. Montulli, was granted options to purchase 1,700,000
shares of Greenland Corporation common stock at $.15 per share (options to
acquire 1,300,000 shares are now exercisable and options to purchase 400,000
shares will become exercisable on January 2001); options now exercisable to
purchase shares of Greenland Corporation common stock in the amount of 25,000
shares at $.24 per share, 133,332 shares at $.18, per share, 171,428 shares at
$.14 per share, 400,000 shares at $.15 per share and 257,142 shares at $.14 per
share. Mr. Swanson was granted options now exercisable to purchase 1,300,000
shares of Greenland Corporation common stock at $.15 per share as well as
160,000 shares at $.15 per share, 133,332 shares at $.18 per share, 171,428
shares at $.14 per share, and 41,378 shares at $.29 per share. Mr. Beener was
granted options now exercisable to purchase 1,350,000 shares of Greenland
Corporation common stock at $.15 per share, in addition 320,000 shares at $.15
per share and 257,142 shares at $.14 per share. Mr. Farrow was granted options
now exercisable to purchase 600,000 shares of Greenland Corporation common stock
at $.15 per share and 128,577 shares at $.14 per share. These options were
granted pursuant to the 1999 Stock Option Plan and expire after 10 years from
date of issuance.
<PAGE>
The Company has established annual salaries of $144,000 for its executive
officers: Louis T. Montulli, Max Farrow, and Thomas Beener for fiscal 2000. Mr.
Swanson resigned as an officer of the Company in March 2000 and Mr. Farrow
joined the Company in February 2000. Each officer has signed an employment
contract that provides for, among other things, bonus based on volume of
machines placed in operation and based on the discretion of the Board of
Directors.
During the first seven months of this year and for the entire year of
1999, Mr. Beener, Mr. Montulli and Mr. Swanson accepted their entire
compensation in the form of stock and/or stock options. During the first seven
months of this year, Mr. Farrow has received compensation in cash and stock
options.
PROPOSAL 2
AMENDMENT OF THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
Greenland Corporation's Articles of Amendment to the Articles of
Incorporation currently authorizes the issuance of up to 100 million shares of
common stock. As of June 6, 2000, the Company had in excess of 90 million shares
issued and outstanding and/or reserved in the event of the exercise of options
and warrants, leaving approximately 10 million shares available for other uses
(including issuances under the Company's stock-based compensation benefit
plans).
The Board of Directors is proposing an amendment to the Articles of
Amendment to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100
million to 180 million. If the stockholders approve this proposal, Article V of
Greenland's Articles of Incorporation will be amended to read in its entirety as
follows:
"The aggregate number of shares which the Corporation shall
have authority to issue is180,000,000 shares, having a par value of
$0.001 (1 mil) per share. The stock shall be designated as Class "A"
voting common stock and shall have the same rights and preferences. The
common stock shall not be divided into classes and may not be issued in
series. Fully paid stock of this Corporation shall not be liable for
any further call or assessment."
The Board believes that the number of shares available for issuance does
not give Greenland the flexibility to issue stock for general corporate
purposes. The Company recently completed a Private Placement Offering that
includes three sets of warrants ($.50, $1.00 and $1.50) which if fully
exercised, results in issuance of in excess 40 million shares. In addition, the
Company anticipates pursuing the establishment of a line of credit which is
necessary for additional capital for further marketing, placement of machines
and development which would require the issuance of a substantial amount of
additional shares. The Board believes that the proposed increase in the number
of authorized shares will provide the Company with the flexibility necessary to
issue shares in connection with an acquisition, financing or other corporate
purpose, without the expense of a special stockholders meeting or the delay of
waiting until the next annual meeting.
If this proposal is approved, all authorized but unissued shares of common
stock will be available for issuance from time to time for any proper purpose
approved by the Board (including issuances in connection with stock-based
employee benefit plans, future stock splits or dividends and issuances to raise
capital or effect acquisitions). There are currently no arrangements, agreements
or understandings for the issuance or use of the additional shares of authorized
common stock (other than issuances permitted or required under Greenland's
stock-based benefit plans or awards made pursuant to those plans). If this
proposal is approved, all or any of the shares may be issued without further
stockholder action, unless stockholder approval is required by law.
Stockholders do not have preemptive or similar rights to subscribe for or
purchase any additional shares of common stock that we may issue in the future,
and therefore, future issuances of common stock other than on a pro rata basis
to all stockholders would reduce each stockholder's proportionate interest in
Greenland.
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares
of common stock entitled to vote at the meeting is necessary for approval of
Proposal 2. Therefore, abstentions effectively count as votes against this
proposal.
RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The Board of Directors has adopted and approved Proposal 2, subject to the
requisite approval by the Company's Stockholders. The affirmative vote of a
majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock is required to adopt the
Proposal. The Board of Directors of the Company has considered the Proposal and
recommends that the Company's
<PAGE>
Stockholders adopt the Proposal as set forth in this information statement
PROPOSAL 3
AMENDMENT OF 1999 STOCK OPTION PLAN
At the Company's 1999 Annual Meeting the shareholders approved the 1999
Stock Option Plan that provided for 8 million shares of common stock (the
"Plan"). During the years 1999 and 2000 the Company has increased its employee
base and executive management. Currently 6.5 million shares have been issued
pursuant to the Plan.
Accordingly, the Board of Directors has determined that the 1999 Stock
Option Plan is not adequate to meet the needs of the Company and that the
Company may have difficulty retaining key personnel unless the number of shares
of Common Stock available in the Plan is increased to meet the Company's present
and future needs. Therefore, the Board of Directors believes that ARTICLE 4 of
the 1999 Stock Option Plan should be amended to increase the number of shares
authorized in the Plan from 8 million to 14 million. All terms and conditions of
the Plan will remain unaffected.
RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The Board of Directors has adopted and approved Proposal 3, subject to
the requisite approval by the Company's Stockholders. The affirmative vote of a
majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock is required to adopt the
Proposal. The Board of Directors of the Company has considered the Proposal and
recommends that the Company's Stockholders adopt the Proposal as set forth in
this information statement.
PROPOSAL 4
ELECTION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors has selected Levitz, Zacks & Ciceric to serve as
the Company's independent accountants for the fiscal year 2000. Levitz, Zacks &
Ciceric has served as the Company's independent accountants since 1999.
CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
During 1999 certain Officers and Directors made loans to the Company to
further various projects, research and development. Thomas Beener loaned the
Company $15,000 and as part of the transaction purchased warrants to acquire
100,000 shares of Greenland common stock at $.10 per share and 100,000 shares of
Greenland common stock at $.13 per share. Lee Swanson loaned the Company $25,000
and as part of the transaction purchased warrants to acquire 166,666 shares of
Greenland common stock at $.10 per share and 166,666 shares at $.13. Gene Cross
loaned the Company $5,000 and as part of the transaction purchased warrants to
acquire 33,333 shares of Greenland common stock at $.10 per share and 33,333
shares at $.13 per share. George Godwin loaned the Company $5,000 and as part of
the transaction purchased warrants to acquire 33,333 shares of Greenland common
stock at $.10 per share and 33,333 shares at $.13 per share. The loans are
currently outstanding. The loans were repaid by converting the outstanding
principal and interest to restricted shares of common stock of Greenland at a
value of $.15 per share.
On or about March 20, 2000 the Company entered into a transaction with
SmartCash ATM, Ltd. ("SmartCash") whereby the Company reacquired the rights to
the Master Distributorship from SmartCash. Although SmartCash will remain an
non-exclusive distributor, the Company believes that the repurchase of the
rights to the Master Distributorship provides the Company with the certain
advantages including: increase in gross hardware and software profits, allows
the Company to work directly with Independent Sales Representatives and provides
the Company with unencumbered access to corporate chain market sales. Among
other terms and conditions, the Company loaned SmartCash $200,000 (which
SmartCash will repay from proceeds of sale of stock) and the Company will
continue to pay commission on sales of machines by SmartCash until said
commissions equal $320,000. SmartCash released its distributors from any
obligation to SmartCash that would have prevented said distributor from
contracting directly with Greenland for the sale of the Company's Product. Mr.
Randell Coleman is the owner of SmartCash and Mr. Coleman served as a Director
of Greenland during 1999. Mr. Coleman resigned from the Board of Directors prior
to the consummation of the transaction with SmartCash.
<PAGE>
During 1999, Officers of the Company were prepaid $63,414 in the form of
Common Stock. This prepayment arose as a result of a discrepancy regarding the
valuation of the stock paid to the officers in lieu of cash compensation. This
prepayment was offset against compensation owed to the Officers in the year
2000.
OTHER MATTERS
The Board of Directors does not know of any matter to be presented at the
Annual Meeting, which is not listed on the Notice of Annual Meeting and
discussed above. If other matters should properly come before the meeting
however, the persons names in the accompanying Proxy will vote all Proxies in
accordance with their best judgment.
STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2000 ANNUAL MEETING
Stockholder proposals intended to be presented at the 2000 Annual Meeting
(the meeting to be held following the end of fiscal year 1999) must be received
on or before September 15, 2000 by the Company at its office address set forth
on the first page of this proxy statement, and all the other conditions of Rule
14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 must be satisfied, for such
proposals to be included in Greenland Corporation's proxy statement and form of
proxy relating to that meeting.
