WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY
 
This Information Statement is furnished by the Board of Directors of SinoCubate, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), to the holders of record at the close of business on May 8, 2012 (“Record Date”), of the Company’s outstanding common voting stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) pursuant to Rule 14c-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”).

The Company is sending you this Information Statement solely for the purpose of informing you, as one of our stockholders, in the manner required under Regulation 14C promulgated under the Exchange Act, that our Board of Directors (our “Board”) has previously approved, and the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) have previously executed an Action by Written Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of a Special Meeting approving an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation (our “Articles of Incorporation”) to change our name from “SinoCubate, Inc.” to “Viking Investments Group, Inc.”  No vote or other action is requested or required on your part.

BRIEF QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS REGARDING THE PROPOSED NAME CHANGE
 
Q1:
What actions were taken by the Action by Written Consent of the Stockholders in lieu of a Special Meeting?
 
A1:
Pursuant to the Action by Written Consent of the Stockholders in lieu of a Special Meeting, our stockholders holding at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from “SinoCubate, Inc.” to “Viking Investments Group, Inc.” (the “Name Change Amendment”).  Additional information regarding the Name Change Amendment is set forth below in the section entitled “Approval of Name Change Amendment.”
 
Q2:
How many shares of Common Stock were voted in favor of the Name Change Amendment?
 
A2:
The approval of the Name Change Amendment by the written consent of our stockholders requires the consent of the holders of at least a majority of our outstanding shares of Common Stock as of May 8, 2012 (the “Record Date”).  As of the Record Date, 19,502,974 shares of our Common Stock were issued and outstanding.  Each share of our Common Stock is entitled to one vote. The holders of 17,298,577 shares of our Common Stock, representing approximately 88.70% of the shares entitled to vote on the Record Date, executed the Action by Written Consent of the Stockholders in Lieu of a Special Meeting.  Consequently, no additional votes are required to approve the Name Change Amendment.
  
Q3:
Why is the Company amending its Articles of Incorporation through a stockholder written consent in lieu of holding a stockholder meeting?
 
A3:
Under the Nevada Revised Statutes, our Articles of Incorporation and our bylaws, stockholder actions may be taken by written consent without a meeting of stockholders.  The written consent of the holders of a majority of our outstanding Common Stock is sufficient to approve and adopt the Name Change Amendment.  The Company is not required to solicit the vote of any additional stockholders to effect the Name Change Amendment.  The Company is, however, obligated by federal securities laws to provide this Information Statement to you in connection with the Name Change Amendment.
 
Q4:
Has the Board approved the name change.
 
A4:
Yes. The Board approved the name change on May 8, 2012.

Q5:
When will the Name Change Amendment be effective?
 
A5:
In accordance with federal securities laws, the proposed name change can not be effected until at least 20 calendar days following the mailing of this Information Statement to our stockholders.  The Name Change Amendment will become legally effective on the date it is filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada, which we anticipate to be on or around June 8, 2012.    
 
Q6:
Am I entitled to dissenter’s rights in connection with the name change?
 
A6:
No. The Nevada Revised Statutes do not provide for dissenter’s rights with respect to the Name Change Amendment.

APPROVAL OF NAME CHANGE AMENDMENT

Name Change Amendment

Our Board and a majority of the holders of our Common Stock have approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from “SinoCubate, Inc.” to “Viking Investments Group, Inc.”  The name change is being effected because our Board believes that the new name will better reflect our current business as a provider of services to companies internationally and not just in China.  Our business model recently changed in the fourth quarter of 2011, and we began focusing on providing business management and consulting services to companies internationally instead of focusing exclusively on making strategic acquisitions of Chinese companies.

A copy of the proposed form of Certificate of Amendment of the Articles of Incorporation is attached to this Information Statement as Exhibit A .
 
NO DISSENTERS’ RIGHTS
 
Pursuant to the Nevada Revised Statues, NRS 92A.300 to 92A.500 inclusive, none of the corporate actions described in this Information Statement will afford to stockholders the opportunity to dissent from the actions described herein and to receive an agreed or judicially appraised value for their shares.
