On August 29, 2003 the shareholders of A Time to Grow, Inc. voted at the annual shareholders meeting of the Company to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of The American Development Fund, Inc. for 1,000,000 shares of the common stock of the Company. The American Development Fund, Inc. provides intellectual capital on investment strategies and the evaluation and structuring of early stage investments. The American Development Fund, Inc. will be a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company at the close of the transaction.

At a shareholders meeting held on August 29, 2003 the shareholders of A Time to Grow, Inc. voted to abandon the current business plan of the Company and to elect to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

Most investments will be made in the form of debt and/or equity investments in private companies and some in public companies with limited liquidity and no ready access to capital. The shareholders voted to grant all rights to the current business model, names and intellectual property to Jonathan Gilchrist in exchange for surrender of the outstanding obligation owed to him by the Company.

As our investment advisor, Goldbridge Capital will receive a fee of 1.5% of assets under management paid quarterly in arrears and a 10% participation interest in realized returns in excess of a 25% return on assets.

Reverse Stock Split. At a shareholders meeting held on August 29, 2003 the shareholders of A Time To Grow, Inc. voted to reduce the total number of shares issued and outstanding by effecting a reverse split of the shares on a one share for three share basis.
