DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
PURSUANT TO
SECTION 14(f) OF THE
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 AND
RULE 14f-1 THEREUNDER
INTRODUCTION
This Statement is being mailed on or about September 3, 1999, to holders of
record on September 1, 1999, of the shares of Common Stock, par value $.001 per
share (the "Common Stock") of Guideline Capital Corporation, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"). It is being furnished in connection with the change
of the Company's directors to be effected at a Board meeting to be held at the
closing of the transaction discussed below, to be held on or about September 13,
1999.
BACKGROUND OF TRANSACTION AND CHANGE IN CONTROL
Pursuant to the terms of an agreement (the "Agreement") between the Company
and Vitafort International Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Vitafort"), and
Hollywood Partners, Inc., a California corporation and a subsidiary of Vitafort
("Subsidiary"), the Company has agreed to acquire all of Subsidiary's issued and
outstanding shares of common stock owned by Vitafort (collectively, the
"Subsidiary Stock") in exchange for an aggregate of 5,000,000 "restricted"
shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Transaction"). As of the date of this
Disclosure Statement, there are 500,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock
issued and outstanding. As part of the terms of agreement between the Company,
Vitafort and Subsidiary, the Company will undertake a 7 to 1 forward split of
its presently issued and outstanding common stock, so that at the time of
closing 3,500,000 shares of common stock will be issued and outstanding and will
cause a Certificate of Amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation
to be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State approving an increase in its
authorized capitalization to 50,000,000 shares of authorized common stock, par
value $.001 and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001.
Accordingly, if all of the issued and outstanding shares of Subsidiary are
exchanged for 5,000,000 common shares of the Company's Common Stock, the holders
thereof will own approximately 59% of the Company's 8,500,000 shares of Common
Stock which would then be issued and outstanding.
Upon consummation of the Transaction, the Company's current officers and
directors will resign and will be replaced by Directors and Officers selected by
Subsidiary's management (see "Directors and Executive Officers and Related
Transactions").
Consummation of the Transaction will result in a change of control. If the
Transaction is not consummated, the Company's current officers and directors
will not resign and there will not be a change in control. The Company
anticipates, but cannot assure, that the Agreement will be executed on or about
September 13, 1999, with the closing to occur shortly thereafter.
REASON FOR DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

meeting of stockholders, the Company is required pursuant to Rule 14f-1
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to provide
its stockholders and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
with certain information not less than ten days prior to the date on which the
change will take place, or such other time period as may be established by the
<PAGE>
Commission. This Disclosure Statement is being filed with the Commission and
sent to stockholders in compliance with that Rule.
