INFORMATION
STATEMENT
WE
ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO
SEND US A PROXY. THE
ACTIONS DESCRIBED IN THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT HAVE ALREADY BEEN APPROVED
BY
OUR STOCKHOLDERS. A VOTE
OF THE REMAINING STOCKHOLDERS IS NOT NECESSARY.
This
Information Statement is being furnished to the stockholders of record of SRKP
7, Inc. ("we"
or
the "Company")
as
of
August 28, 2006 (the "Record
Date") to
advise
them that the Board of
Directors and majority stockholder of the Company have approved an amendment
(the "Amendment")
to
our
Certificate of Incorporation. The Amendment, when filed with the Delaware
Secretary
of State, will change the name of this corporation to "Lixte Biotechnology
Holdings, Inc." Stockholder
approval was by written consent of one stockholder owning 19,021,786 shares,
representing
71.55% of the outstanding votes as of the Record Date. This Information
Statement is being
mailed on or about September ,
2006.
A
copy of
the Certificate of Amendment containing the Amendment is attached to this
Information
Statement as Appendix A.
Pursuant
to regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, the
Amendment may not be effected until at least 20 calendar days after this
Information Statement is
sent
or given to our stockholders. We anticipate that the Amendment will be filed
promptly following
the 20th day after this Information Statement is first sent to our stockholders.
We will pay all costs associated with the preparation and distribution of this
Information Statement, including all mailing
and printing expenses.
Vote
Required
The
Amendment required the approval of stockholders holding a majority of the
outstanding votes.
As
of the Record Date, we had only one class of voting securities outstanding,
consisting of Common
Stock. The holder of 19,021,786 shares has executed the written consent in
favor
of the Amendment.
Meeting
Not Required
Under
Delaware General Corporation Law (the "Delaware
Law"), an
amendment to our Certificate
of Incorporation must be proposed by resolution of the Board of Directors and
be
approved
of by stockholders holding shares entitling them to exercise at least a majority
of the voting
power of the company. Delaware Law provides that, unless otherwise provided
in a
corporation's
Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, actions required or permitted to be
taken at a meeting
of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if a written consent thereto
is signed by
stockholders
holding not less than at least a majority of the voting power of the company.
In
order to
eliminate the costs and management time involved in holding a special meeting,
our Board of Directors
decided to obtain, and did in fact obtain, the written consent of one
stockholder holding the requisite
number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action. Our
Bylaws also permits
action to be taken by the written consent of the stockholders holding not less
than at least a majority
of the voting power of the company.
Dissenters
Rights of Appraisal
There
are
no dissenter's rights of appraisal applicable to this action to adopt the
Amendment.

AMENDMENT
OF THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
The
Amendment will change our name to "Lixte Biotechnology Holdings,
Inc."
To
become
effective, the Amendment must be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State.
We
intend
to file the Amendment as soon as reasonably practicable following the
20th day
following the
mailing of this Information Statement to our stockholders. The following
summarizes the Amendment.
Name
Change
On
June
30, 2006, pursuant to the terms of a Share Exchange Agreement, we acquired
(the
"Acquisition")
all of the issued and outstanding shares of Lixte Biotechnology, Inc., a
Delaware company
("New Subsidiary"). Immediately following the Acquisition, we moved our
principal executive
offices to the location of the New Subsidiary at 248 Route 25A, No. 2, East
Setauket, New York
11733. We currently do not plan to conduct any business other than owning the
shares of the New
Subsidiary, which will continue to conduct its operations.
Since
we
are now solely engaged in the business conducted by the New Subsidiary, we
believe
that our name should be changed to reflect our new business.
The
Amendment will change our name to "Lixte Biotechnology Holdings, Inc." The
voting and
other
rights that accompany our securities will not be affected by the change in
our
name. After the
name
change, stockholders will be permitted to, but need not, exchange their
certificates to reflect
the change in corporate name. However, the existing certificate will continue
to
represent shares
of
our Common Stock as if the corporate name had not changed. Our transfer agent
will issue stock
certificates with the new company name as stock certificates are sent in upon
transfers of shares by existing stockholders. The transfer agent for the common
stock is US Stock Transfer Corporation,
located at 1745 Gardena Avenue, Glendale, California 91204, telephone (818)
502-1404.
We
are
subject to the information requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended,
and in accordance therewith file reports and other information, including
current reports on
Form
8-K and annual and quarterly reports on Form 10-KSB and Form 10-QSB, with the
Securities
and Exchange Commission. Reports and other information filed by us can be
inspected and copied at the public reference facilities maintained at the
Securities and Exchange Commission at
Room
1024, 450 Fifth Street, N.W.,
Washington,
DC 20549. Copies of such material can be obtained upon written request addressed
to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Public Reference Section, 450 Fifth
Street, N.W.,
Washington,
DC 20549, at prescribed rates. The Securities
and Exchange Commission also maintains a web site on the internet (http://www.sec.gov)
where
reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding
issuers that file electronically
with the Securities and Exchange Commission through the Electronic Data
Gathering, Analysis
and Retrieval System may be obtained free of charge.
