PURSUANT TO THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF STOCKHOLDERS
Dear Fresh Traffic Group Inc. Stockholders:

This Information Statement is first being mailed on or about July 23, 2012 to the holders of record of the outstanding common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) of Fresh Traffic Group Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), as of the close of business on July 18, 2012 (the “Record Date”), pursuant to Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
This Information Statement relates to a written consent in lieu of a meeting, dated June 26, 2012 (the “Written Consent”), of stockholders of the Company owning at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, as of the Record Date (the “Majority Stockholders”). Except as otherwise indicated by the context, references in this Information Statement to “the Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our” are references to Fresh Traffic Group Inc.
The Written Consent authorized
1. an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to change our name to “Synergetics, Inc.” A copy of the Certificate of Amendment is attached to this Information Statement as Appendix A; and
2. an authorization to the Board of Directors to effect a reverse split of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share at an exchange ratio of one for seventy-five (the “Reverse Split”) and to file such amendments as may be required with the requisite regulatory bodies to effect the Reverse Split, so that every seventy-five outstanding shares of Common Stock before the Reverse Split shall represent one share of Common Stock after the Reverse Split (the “Reverse Split Amendment”).
The Written Consent constitutes the consent of a majority of the total number of shares of outstanding Common Stock and is sufficient under Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes and our Bylaws to approve the Certificate of Amendment. Accordingly, the Certificate of Amendment is not presently being submitted to our other stockholders for a vote.

INFORMATION STATEMENT
PURSUANT TO SECTION 14(c)
OF THE SECURTIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
AND RULE 14c-2 THEREUNDER
NO VOTE OR OTHER ACTION OF THE COMPANY’S STOCKHOLDERS IS REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT
We are sending you this Information Statement solely for the purpose of informing our stockholders of record as of July 18, 2012 in the manner required under Regulation 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, of the actions taken by a majority of our stockholders by written consent in lieu of a special meeting. No action is requested or required on your part.
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY.
GENERAL
This Information Statement has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the (“Commission”) and is being furnished to the holders of the outstanding and voting shares of stock of Fresh Traffic Group Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”). The purpose of this Information Statement is to provide notice that a majority of our stockholders have executed written consents in lieu of a special meeting approving the following items:
1. an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to change our name to “Synergetics, Inc.” (the “Name Change”) A copy of the Certificate of Amendment is attached to this Information Statement as Appendix A; and
2. an authorization to the Board of Directors to effect a reverse split of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share at an exchange ratio of one for seventy-five (the “Reverse Split”) and to file such amendments as may be required with the requisite regulatory bodies to effect the Reverse Split, so that every seventy-five outstanding shares of Common Stock before the Reverse Split shall represent one share of Common Stock after the Reverse Split (the “Reverse Split Amendment”).
The two above actions are herein after referred to collectively as (the “Amendments”).
AUTHORIZATION BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE MAJORITY STOCKHOLDERS
Under the Nevada Revised Statutes and the Company’s Bylaws, any action that can be taken at an annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that will be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted consent to such action in writing. The approval of the Amendment requires the affirmative vote or written consent of a majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. Each Stockholder is entitled to one vote per share of Common Stock held of record on any matter which may properly come before the stockholders. On the Record Date the Company had 36,000,000 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding with the holders thereof being entitled to cast one vote per share. On June 26, 2012, our Board of Directors unanimously adopted resolutions approving the Amendments and recommended that our stockholders approve the Amendments substantially as set forth above. Our Board
of Directors has determined that the change of our name to Synergetics, Inc. is in the best interest of our stockholders and will more accurately reflect, and allow us to engage in, our new business operations as described in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 27, 2012, and any other acquisitions the Company may undertake in furthering its ongoing business. On the Record Date, the record holders of 18,500,965 shares of our Common Stock, constituting 51.39% of our issued and outstanding Common Stock, the sole class of our voting securities currently issued and outstanding, consented in writing to the Amendments. Accordingly, we have obtained all necessary corporate approvals in connection with the Amendments. We are not seeking written consent from any other stockholder, and the other stockholders will not be given an opportunity to vote with respect to the actions described in this Information Statement. All necessary corporate approvals have been obtained. This Information Statement is furnished solely for the purposes of advising stockholders of the action taken by written consent and giving stockholders notice of such actions taken as required by the Exchange Act. As the actions taken by the majority stockholders were by written consent, there will be no security holders meeting and representatives of the principal accountants for the current year and for the most recently completed fiscal year will not have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will not be available to respond to appropriate questions from our stockholders. We will, when permissible following the expiration of the 20 day period mandated by Rule 14c of the Exchange Act and the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes, file the Amendments with the Nevada Secretary of State’s Office. The Amendments will become effective upon such filing and we anticipate that such filing will occur approximately 20 days after this Information Statement is first mailed to our stockholders.

We are authorized to issue up to 675,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of June 26, 2012, we had issued a total of 36,000,000 shares of Common Stock.
Each outstanding share of Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote per share on all matters. Our bylaws provide that any vacancy occurring in the board of directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors though less than a quorum of the board of directors. Shareholders do not have preemptive rights to purchase shares in any future issuance of our Common Stock.

AMENDMENT TO OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
Our current Articles of Incorporation state that the name of the Company is Fresh Traffic Group Inc.

The substantive text of the proposed Amendment is attached hereto as Appendix A. The Amendment effecting the Name Change will become effective following filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, which will occur promptly following the 20th day after the mailing of this Information Statement to our stockholders of record as of the Record Date. The change of our name to Synergetics, Inc. is in the best interests of our stockholders and will more accurately reflect, and allow us to engage in, our new business operations as described in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 27, 2012, and other business operations we may subsequently undertake or acquire.
ACTION NO. 2
AUTHORIZATION OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
General
On June 26, 2012, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to implement a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”) of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock at a ratio of 1:75 and to file all required documents to the requisite regulatory authorities to implement the Reverse Split. On June 26, 2012, pursuant to NRS78-385 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, we received written consents approving the Reverse Split from the Majority Stockholders. Pursuant to the resolutions which were adopted, on the Effective Date or such date as may be determined by FINRA and the requisite regulatory authorities to be the Effective Date the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock would be reduced by a ratio of one-for-seventy-five.
Effective Date of the Reverse Split
The Reverse Split will become effective upon the approval by FINRA of the Amendment or at such later time as indicated in such amendment (the “Effective Time” and “Effective Date”), but in no event prior to the end of the 20 day period following the date on which this Information Statement is mailed first to our stockholders.
Purpose and Background of the Reverse Split
The primary objective of the Reverse Split is to raise the per share trading price of our Common Stock. The Board of Directors believes that the Reverse Split would, among other things, better enable the Company to raise funds.
The Board of Directors believes that an increased stock price may encourage investor interest and improve the marketability of the Common Stock to a broader range of investors, and thus improve liquidity. Because of the trading volatility often associated with low-priced stocks, many
brokerage firms and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced stocks or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced stocks to their customers. The Board of Directors believes that the anticipated higher market price resulting from the Reverse Split would enable institutional investors and brokerage firms with policies and practices such as those described above to invest in our Common Stock. Once the Company implements the Reverse Split, there is no assurance that the market price for shares of the Common Stock after the Reverse Split will increase proportionally to the exchange ratio of the Reverse Split (or at all). There is no guarantee to stockholders that the price of shares will reach or sustain any price level in the future, and it is possible the proposed Reverse Split will have no lasting impact on the share price.
Material Effects of Reverse Split
The Reverse Split will affect all stockholders of the Company uniformly and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership interests or proportionate voting power.
The principal effects of the Reverse Split will be that (i) the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding will be reduced from 36,000,000 shares as of June 26, 2012 to 480,000 as of the Effective Date, without giving consideration to the round-up of fractional shares to be issued which may increase the number minimally.
The Reverse Split will not affect the par value of the Common Stock. As a result of the Reverse Split, on the Effective Date, the stated capital on our balance sheet attributable to the Common Stock will be reduced in proportion to the size of the Reverse Split, and the additional paid-in capital account shall be credited with the amount by which the stated capital is reduced. Our stockholders’ equity, in the aggregate, will remain unchanged. The Reverse Split will not change the terms of the Common Stock. After the Reverse Split, the shares of common stock will have the same voting rights and rights to dividends and distributions and will be identical in all other respects to the Common Stock now authorized. The Common Stock issued pursuant to the reverse split will remain fully paid and non-assessable. The Reverse Split is not intended as, and will not have the effect of, a “going private transaction” covered by Rule 13e-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Following the reverse split, the Company will continue to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The decrease in the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding as a consequence of the Reverse Split may decrease the liquidity in our Common Stock if the anticipated beneficial effects do not occur. In addition, the Reverse Split would result in some stockholders owning “odd-lots” of less than 100 shares of our Common Stock. Brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd-lots are generally higher than the costs of transactions in “round-lots” of even multiples of 100 shares.
Round Up of Fractional Shares; Exchange of Stock Certificates
No fractional shares of our Common Stock will be issued in connection with the proposed Reverse Split. Holders of Common Stock who would otherwise receive a fractional share of Common Stock pursuant to the Reverse Split will receive a share rounded up to the next nearest share. There will be no Exchange of Stock Certificates required.
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of The Reverse Split
The following discussion is a summary of the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a stockholder who exchanges shares pursuant to the stock split. This discussion is for general information only and is not intended to be a complete description of all potential tax consequences to a particular stockholder. Nor does it describe state, local or foreign tax consequences. Any written tax advice contained herein was not written or intended to be used (and cannot be used) by any taxpayer for the purpose of avoiding penalties that may be imposed under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
This discussion is based on current provisions of the Code, Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code, Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) rulings and pronouncements, and judicial decisions now in effect, all of which are subject to change at any time by legislative, judicial or administrative action. Any such changes may be applied retroactively. We have not sought nor will we seek any rulings from the IRS with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences discussed below. The discussion below is not in any way binding on the IRS or the courts or in any way constitutes an assurance that the U.S. federal income tax consequences discussed herein will be accepted by the IRS or the courts.
We will not recognize any gain or loss for tax purposes as a result of the stock split. Furthermore, the stock split will not result in the recognition of gain or loss to our common stockholders. The holding period for the shares of common stock each stockholder receives will include the holding period of the shares exchanged in the stock split. The aggregate adjusted basis of the new shares of common stock will be equal to the aggregate adjusted basis of the old shares exchanged in the stock split.
Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors to know their individual federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences.
