MULTI-TECH INTERNATIONAL, CORP.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS AT JUNE 30, 2003
(UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Nature of Business
Multi-Tech International, Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated on
September 21, 1998 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The
Company was originally incorporated under the name of Oleramma Inc.
On April 28, 1999, the Company changed its name to BuckTV,Com, Inc.
on the basis that the Company would market consumer products
through an Interactive Web site. The Company's primary business
operations are to engage in any lawful activity. The Company again
changed its name in November 2002 to Multi-Tech International, Corp
to more accurately describe the direction in which the Company has
taken which is more accurately described below reflecting the
acquisition made on November 14, 2002 as set out in Note 8 below.
The Company trades on OTCBB as MLTI.
On November 14, 2002, the Company acquired all the assets of
AlphaCom, Inc., setting a new strategic direction for the Company.
The Company's principal business is now in the field of spectrum
technologies for communications.
The Company is focused on developing and promoting spectrum
technologies for broad-based applications worldwide. The spectrum
technologies product(s) MLTI has developed provides far more
efficient use of bandwidth. Through the use of narrow band
frequencies and patented algorithms, MLTI spectrum technologies
will use existing infrastructure with efficiencies exponentially
greater than conventional technologies.
Referred to as "MLTI spectrum technology", it solves the power and
noise problem through the use of filtration techniques and patented
modulation algorithms. The result is a signal that can be carried
over greater distances and with less power.
The Company's fiscal year end is December 31.
Development Stage Enterprise
The Company has no revenues and has just commenced operations. The
Company's activities are accounted for as those of a "Development
Stage Enterprise" as set forth in Financial Accounting Standards
Board Statement No. 7 ("SFAS 7"). Among the disclosures required
by SFAS 7 are that the Company's financial statements be identified
as those of a development stage company, and that the statements of
operations, stockholders' equity(deficit) and cash flows disclose
activity since the date of the Company's inception.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
These financial statements are presented on the accrual method of
accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles accepted in the United States. In the opinion of
management, these interim financial statements include all
adjustments necessary in order to make them not misleading..
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS AT JUNE 30, 2003
(UNAUDITED)
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and
investments, purchased with an original maturity date of three
months or less, to be cash equivalents.
Fixed Assets
All fixed assets are recorded at their acquisition price. Since
these assets were acquired on November 14, 2002, management has
determined that these assets were put to use on January 1, 2003 and
the Company uses straight line depreciation on these assets over their
estimated useful life.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, which
requires the asset and liability approach to accounting for income
taxes. Under this method, deferred assets and liabilities are
measured based on differences between financial reporting and tax
bases of assets and liabilities measured using enacted tax rates
and laws that are expected to be in effect when differences are
expected to reverse.
Net earnings (loss) per share
Basic and diluted net loss per share information is presented under
the requirements of SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Basic net
loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the
period, less shares subject to repurchase. Diluted net loss per
share reflects the potential dilution of securities by adding other
common stock equivalents, including stock options, shares subject
to repurchase, warrants and convertible preferred stock, in the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for a period,
if dilutive. All potentially dilutive securities have been
excluded from this computation, as their effect is anti-dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of cash, marketable securities, prepaid
expenses and sundry assets, accounts payable, loans payable, and
notes payable are considered to be representative of their
respective fair values because of the short-term nature of
these financial instruments
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No.
141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" effective for fiscal years beginning after MARCH
15, 2001. SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of
accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after
June 30, 2001 and also specifies the criteria for the recognition
of intangible assets separately from goodwill. Under the new rules,
goodwill will no longer be amortized but will be subject to an
impairment test at least annually. Separately identified and
recognized intangible assets resulting from business combinations
completed before July 1, 2001 that do not meet the new criteria for
separate recognition of intangible assets will be subsumed in

NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS AT JUNE 30, 2003
(UNAUDITED)
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Recently Issued Accounting Standards (continued)
goodwill upon adoption. Other intangible assets that meet the new
criteria will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The
Company adopted the new rules on accounting for goodwill and other
intangible assets on January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS Nos. 141
and 142 had no impact on the Company's financial statements at
transition.
In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144
supersedes SFAS No.121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-
Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." The
primary objectives of SFAS No. 144 are to develop one accounting
model based on the framework established in SFAS No. 121 for long-
lived assets to be disposed of by sale, and to address significant
implementation issues. The Company's adoption of SFAS No. 144 on
January 1, 2002 had no material impact on our financial position
and results of operations.
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation, or FIN, No. 45,
"Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees,
including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others." FIN 45
elaborates on the existing disclosure requirements for most
guarantees, including residual value guarantees issued in
conjunction with operating lease agreements. It also clarifies that
at the time a company issues a guarantee, the company must
recognize an initial liability for the fair value of the obligation
it assumes under the guarantee and must disclose that information
in its interim and annual financial statements. The initial
recognition and measurement provisions apply on a prospective basis
to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002 The
disclosure requirements are effective for the financial statements
of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. Our
adoption of FIN 45 will not have a material impact on our results
of operations and financial position.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation -- Transition and Disclosure." This
statement amends SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," to provide alternative methods of transition for a
voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting
for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement
amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent
disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about
the method of accounting for stock-based accounting for employee
compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.
The Company is currently evaluating whether to adopt the fair
value based method.
In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, "Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities." FIN No. 46 requires that
unconsolidated variable interest entities be consolidated by their
primary beneficiaries. A primary beneficiary is the party that
absorbs a majority of the entity's expected losses or residual
benefits. FIN No. 46 applies immediately to variable interest
entities created after January 31, 2003 and to existing variable
interest entities in the periods beginning after June 15, 2003. Our
adoption of FIN No. 46 will not have a material impact on our
results of operations and financial position.

3. MARKETABLE SECURITIES
Management determines the appropriate classification of
investments in debt and equity securities at the time of purchase
and re-evaluates such designation as of each subsequent balance
sheet date. Securities for which the Company has the ability and
intent to hold to maturity are classified as "held to maturity".
Securities classified as "trading securities" are recorded at fair
value. Gains and losses on trading securities, realized and
unrealized, are included in earnings and are calculated using the
specific identification method. Any other securities are classified
as "available for sale." At March 31, 2003 all securities were
classified as trading securities.
As part of the purchase price of the assets of Alphacom, Inc as

5. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which
contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern.
The future success of the Company is likely dependent on its
ability to attain additional capital to develop its proposed
technologies and ultimately, upon its ability to attain future
profitable operations. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be successful in obtaining financing, or that it will
attain positive cash flow from operations.
6. INCOME TAXES
There has been no provision for U.S. federal, state, or foreign
income taxes for any period because the Company has incurred losses
in all periods and for all jurisdictions.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary
differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax
purposes. Significant components of deferred tax assets are as
follows:
Deferred tax assets
Net operating loss carry forwards $10,932,600
Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets (10,932,600)
------------
Net deferred tax assets $-
------------
------------
Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future
earnings, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain.
Accordingly, the net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by
a valuation allowance. As of JUNE 30, 2003, the Company had net
operating loss carry forwards of approximately $10,932.600 for
federal and state income tax purposes. These carry forwards, if
not utilized to offset taxable income begin to expire in 2013.
Utilization of the net operating loss may be subject to substantial
annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided
by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. The
annual limitation could result in the expiration of the net
operating loss before utilization.

8. ACQUISITION OF ASSETS OF ALPHACOM, INC.
On November 14, 2002, the Company acquired the assets in a non-cash
transaction of AlphaCom, Inc. a Nevada Corporation. The assets
generally consist of physical and intellectual property. The value
of the assets is approximately 4.4 million dollars, based on the
results of an examination of the seller's audited and unaudited
financial statements. The Company believes that this valuation is
the current fair market value of the assets. The Company acquired
the assets in exchange for 30,320,552 shares of its common stock
and a promissory note in the amount of $4,319,000. For the purposes
of this transaction the stock of the Company was valued at
$0.002/share, the company's average market share price for the past
week. The purchase price may be adjusted downward regarding the
issuance common stock to the seller if the Company does not secure
equity funding and/or licensed revenue in the amount of $10,000,000
during the next twelve months. The adjustment would be based on a
percentage of the amount actually raised to the total agreed upon
of $10,000,000. There is no material relationship between AlphaCom,
Inc., and the registrant or any of its affiliates, any director or
officer of the registrant, or any associate of any such director or
officer. The shares used to accomplish the acquisition were derived
from the Company treasury and are deemed to be restricted, illiquid
shares pursuant to Rule 144 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.

Background and Organization
Multi-Tech International, Corp., a developmental stage company,
hereinafter referred to as "the Company", "we" or "us", was originally
organized by the filing of Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of
State of the State of Nevada on September 21, 1998 under the name Oleramma,
Inc. The Articles of Incorporation authorized the issuance of one hundred one
hundred five million (105,000,000) shares, consisting of one hundred million
(100,000,000) shares of Common Stock at par value of $0.001 per share and five
million (5,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock at par value of $0.001. As of
July 4, 2003, we had 43,657,934 shares of Common Stock outstanding, no
Preferred Stock issued or outstanding, options to purchase 50,000 shares of
Common Stock at $1.00 per share and options to purchase 50,000 shares of
Common Stock at $1.50 per share.
We were a company that hoped to develop a genetically engineered Pima
Cotton seed, with a virus fatal to the bollworm. It was our hope to enter
the marketplace as the first genetically engineered Pima cotton, which is
genetically superior in combating infestations. Unfortunately we were not
able to achieve our original goals and on December 31, 2000 we changed our
name to BUCKTV.COM, Inc. pursued and began a new direction. At this time our
principal business strategy was to market consumer products through an
Interactive Website, and to promote this Website through commercial radio
promotions, and Internet search engines, utilizing the talent and skills of
a famous radio/television personality. However, this was unsuccessful and
we began a search for new opportunities.
On November 14, 2002, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the
"Agreement") we acquired all the assets of AlphaCom, Inc. ("Alphacom"),
setting a new strategic direction for the Company, and changed the name of
the Company to Multi-Tech International, Inc. ("Multi-Tech" OTCBB:MLTI) and
new management joined the Company. In connection with this acquisition
our principal business is now in the field of spectrum technologies for broad
based applications worldwide.
Asset Purchase Agreement
Pursuant to the Agreement we issued a total of 30,320,552 shares of
our Common Stock (the "Shares") and a promissory note in the amount of
$4,319,000 payable to Alphacom representing 74.1 percent of our outstanding
shares of Common Stock in exchange for all of the assets of Alphacom
including all business and technologic developments and licensing and
marketing rights to such assets. The Shares are being held in escrow for 12
months pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, and are subject to downward
Page Eighteen
adjustment based upon financial contingencies set forth in the Agreement.
The acquisition has been accounted for under purchase method accounting.
As a condition to the closing we effected a 1-for-14.525 reverse split of
our Common Stock in November 2002.
The material provisions of the Agreement include:
Appointment of the following individuals to positions within the Company:
John J. Craciun III (President and Chairman of the Board), Dr. David
Hostelley (Secretary, Treasurer and member of Board of Directors), Steven
Coutoumanos (Chief Executive Officer and member of Board of Directors),
David Boon (Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Boon subsequently declined to
accept such appointment), Mark P. Wing (member of Board of Directors),
and Lawrence Hartman (member of Board of Directors).
We may allocate 75% of the monies received by us from financing
activities or via licensing arrangements to pay the promissory note due
AlphaCom.
Until we have received aggregate gross cash proceeds of not less than
$10,000,000 from (i) a direct equity investment or series of investments
from an outside third party or third parties, and/or (ii) license fees
and/or royalty payments received from the license of the Intellectual
Property to third party licensees we cannot have more than 50,000,000
shares issued and outstanding.
Alphacom maintains anti-dilution rights for the number of shares issued
to it based upon certain contingencies.
For a period of 12 months following the closing of the transaction,
without the prior written consent of a majority of the shareholders of
Alphacom, on a fully-diluted basis, we are not permitted to do any of
the following (subject to the termination provisions of the Agreement):
(i) amend any provisions of our Articles of Incorporation or
its By Laws;
(ii) increase our authorized capital stock;
(iii) create or issue any capital stock except for the issuance
of up to 13,179,045 shares of Common Stock;
(iv) declare any dividend or distribution on any of its capital
stock;
(v) dispose of any Intellectual Property;
(vi) redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire any of our equity
securities;
(vii) voluntarily file for bankruptcy;
(viii) incur or assume any debt except the Note, provided that
the Note shall not be secured by any asset; or
(ix) transfer any asset, tangible or intangible, to any
subsidiary or make any investment (other than in cash
equivalents).
Pursuant to the Agreement we purchased all of the assets of Alphacom. The
assets purchased under the Agreement include: certain accounts receivable,
Alphacom's URL www.networkalpha.com; and certain patents (described below).
The transfer of the patents has not yet been properly perfected.
Currently, We along with Alphacom are investigating this matter to ensure that
All assignments are properly recorded. Alphacom has represented to us that it
had valid, binding and legal right to all of the rights, title and interest
in the patents.
The patents encompass the following: wireless digital transmission and
receiving method combining phase reversal keying with pulse position
modulation; improved binary data communication system employing improved
VPSK encoding procedure (as more fully discussed below); method for the
transmission of "biphase" digital data; communication system transmitting
binary data: and high speed data transfer in small amounts of bandwidth.
Page Nineteen
The VPSK encoding procedure is a modulation algorithm. When applied to
existing data transmission environments, VPSK is able to produce previously
unrealized bandwidth efficiencies. For example, Time Division Multiple
Access (TDMA), one of the leading standards of digital cellular
communications, allows for up to 128 simultaneous conversations per system.
By utilizing VPSK modulation, a TDMA-VPSK system using the same bandwidth
as TDMA will allow for over 4,500 simultaneous conversations, an increase
in excess of 35 times. This means that by incorporating this technology, the
existing infrastructure deployed by cellular carriers today will be able to
support far more revenue-producing subscribers.
Cellular technology is only one of many applications over which VPSK
can be deployed. VPSK can be deployed on most communications platforms
including both wireless and wireline. Not only will the use of VPSK produce
a substantial increase in the revenues of existing markets, the increased
data potential creates numerous new markets.
The assets also include: a five percent interest in AlphaCom
International Ltd. (ACIL) a company registered in Hong Kong (the remaining
ninety five percent is owned by ITM Ltd. (of which our former President John
J. Craciun is a majority owner)). ACIL, exclusively owns the AlphaCom, master
technology license, including Manufacturing and Product Distribution Licenses
and all rights to sub-license the same for the following territories: Asia,
Eastern Europe - Romania & Bulgaria and South America - Venezuela and
adjacent islands; International License for Israel; International License
Contract for the European Union Countries; and International License Contract
for Asia.
Plan of Operations
We are focused on developing and promoting spectrum technologies for
broad-based applications worldwide based upon the assets acquired from
Alphacom. The spectrum technologies product(s) Alphacom has developed
provides far more efficient use of bandwidth. Through the use of narrow band
frequencies and patented algorithms, these spectrum technologies will use
existing infrastructure with efficiencies greater than conventional
technologies.
Management believes it solves the power and noise problem through the use
of filtration techniques and patented modulation algorithms. The result is a
signal that can be carried over greater distances and with less power.
Management has embarked on potential acquisitions of other technologies
by issuing non-binding letters of intent for: Compression; Medical Equipment;
Energy Saving Technology for Neon Lighting;, Loss Prevention Systems;
Internet Lead Generation; and other technologies.
Concept and Products
We plan to introduce a technology that makes more efficient use of
bandwidth. Through the use of narrow band frequencies and patented
algorithms, MLTI spectrum technology will travel over existing infrastructure
with efficiencies exponentially greater than conventional technologies. It
is anticipated that this will be done by a comparably small retrofit to
existing wireless and wire-line networks.
The key to this technology is a modulation and filtration technique that
enables more data to be carried, over greater distances, and with less power.
With a relatively small capital investment, service providers will be able to
increase their revenue potential through greater market penetration.
We believe this technology can be carried over virtually any medium,
including: Cable TV, Cable Modem, AM/FM Radio, Analog Cellular, Digital
Mobile, DSL, IP Wire-line Applications, WiFi (802.11b), or Microwave,
Satellite.
Upon entering into a binding agreement for the Compression Technology,
we believe that there are numerous applications for compression in Medical,
streaming video as well as many other areas.
Page Twenty
Upon entering into a binding agreement for the Medical device, there are
established markets for distribution. We will have to develop molds and
engage a quality manufacturing facility before accepting contracts.
Upon entering into a binding agreement for the energy saving technology
for neon lighting, we will have to establish a market and arrange for light
manufacturing and installation of the hardware necessary for the technology
performance.
Upon entering into a binding agreement for the Loss Prevention Technology,
we will have to engage a marketing company to establish the market and prepare
advertising material.
Upon entering into a binding agreement for the Internet lead generation
technology, we will have to establish a marketing plan as well as an
implementation plan.
Upon entering into other agreements we will have to establish marketing
and operational plans.
Dependence on Outside Suppliers
MLTI SPECTRUM TECHNOLOGY
We anticipate that we will have a relatively low dependence on outside
suppliers or vendors. The primary reason is that the MLTI spectrum technology
represents intellectual property, which will be marketed in the form of a
license or royalty contract. As such, we anticipate that no proprietary
hardware will be required in order to generate a revenue stream.
ALL OTHER TECHNOLOGIES
We anticipate outsourcing as much of the manufacturing, assembly and
distribution of products as practicable. Marketing and advertising consultants
will be utilized, as management feels that is the best use of resources.
Marketing and Advertising-Spectrum Technology
We anticipate building a grass roots awareness campaign across the
following channels:
Trade Advertising - three key vertical markets (content provider, service
provider, and end-user):
Awareness campaigns.

Technology Overview
Before voice, data, or video can be transmitted or received, it must be
encoded onto a carrier signal that will propagate by means of an electronic
wave. This process, called modulation is the science of placing intelligence
on a carrier. Using this principle, a data stream is converted to a waveform
and a carrier transports the data over a radio frequency, sound wave, or beam
of light.
Carrier signals can be fully described by three parameters that can be
mixed and matched:
1. Amplitude Modulation - ex. AM stations on a car radio
2. Frequency Modulation - ex. FM stations on a car radio
3. Phase Modulation - ex. Satellite communications
Each of the three modulation techniques listed above possess tradeoffs in
terms of power, performance, bandwidth efficiency, etc. Phase Modulation
generally uses bandwidth more efficiently than other types of modulation.
However, the improvement in bandwidth efficiency comes at the cost of
decreased power efficiency. The smaller separation between bits of data
means it takes less noise to corrupt the signal and cause the receiver to
make an error. To combat this, more power must be transmitted.
Technology Development
Technology development strategies are targeted to address the needs of
telecom and electronic communications bandwidth. Using experience gained from
lab trials, the technology can be deployed on existing infrastructure with
the following planned results (pending further research and development for
each application):

Target Market
We will initially focus on commercializing our territories through the
joint venture and licensing agreements which were obtained pursuant to the
Agreement with Alphacom, while developing support technology to simplify the
implementation of our systems in a variety of applications. Commercialization
will be managed through licenses and strategic partnerships within each of the
targeted markets.
The target audience will initially consist of two key groups:
service/content providers and end users. The messaging for each will be
significantly different:
Service/Content Providers:
Service and content providers are seeking more sophisticated delivery
capabilities in the commercial market. Providers desperately need
communication networks that will integrate voice, data, and video
services over virtually any wire-line or wireless infrastructure at an
affordable price.
End Users:
Users that have already gravitated to existing broadband technology
Have learned to live with some of the downsides. The downsides have
included: difficulties in setting up initial connectivity, high monthly
costs, limitations due to local infrastructure (DSL), and limited
responsiveness during peak usage (Cable). In addition, content delivery
is severely limited to cellular users.
Competition
Competition in the bandwidth communications and/or telecommunications
market segment is extensive. We must take careful measures to ensure that
the intellectual property represented by our spectrum technology is protected.
In addition, competing bandwidth technologies may circumvent any sustainable
competitive advantage and prevent long-term broad acceptance for the spectrum
technology.
The markets for consumer and business Internet services and online
content are extremely competitive and highly fragmented. There are no
significant barriers to market entry. We expect that competition will
intensify in the future. Our direct competition in these markets are ISPs,
national long distance carriers, wireless service providers, OSP's,
cable-based data services and Internet content aggregators. Many of these
competitors are offering (or may soon offer) technologies that
will attempt to compete with some or all of our products and services. Such
technologies include ISDN and XDSL. The basis of competition in these markets
include transmission speed, reliability of service, ease of access,
price/performance, ease-of-use, content quality, quality of presentation,
timeliness of content, customer support, operating experience and revenue
sharing.
Many of our competitors and potential competitors have substantially
larger subscriber bases, longer operating histories, greater name recognition,
and more established relationships with application providers than us. Such
competitors may be able to undertake more extensive marketing campaigns, adopt
more aggressive pricing policies and devote substantially more resources to
developing Internet services than us. There are no assurances that we will be
able to compete successfully against current or future competitors.
Competitive pressures may materially adversely affect our business, operating
results, or financial condition. Further, as a strategic response to changes
in the competitive environment, we may make certain pricing, service or
marketing decisions or enter into acquisitions or new ventures that could
have a materially adverse effect on our business, operating results or
financial condition.

Government Regulation
The adoption of new laws or the application of existing laws may decrease
the growth of spectrum technologies, which could in turn decrease the demand
for our services, increase our cost of doing business or otherwise have a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.
There can be no assurance, however, that Federal, State or local
government will not attempt to impose regulations upon us in the future or
that such imposition will not have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition.
Federal
We will provide Internet services, in part, through data transmissions
over public telephone lines. These transmissions are governed by regulatory
policies establishing charges and terms for wire line communications. We
currently are not subject to direct regulation by the FCC or other regulatory
agencies as a provider of basic telecommunication services.
The FCC regulates the licensing, construction, operation and acquisition
of wireless telecommunications systems in the U.S. pursuant to the 1934 Act,
as amended, and the rules, regulations, and policies promulgated by the FCC
thereunder. Included in the regulations is the use of the electromagnetic
spectrum in the United States, including the frequency band currently used by
our radio products. Part 15 of the FCC regulation defines frequency bands in
which unlicensed operation of the radio equipment that meets certain
technical and operational requirements is permitted. We will utilize CDPD for
the majority of our wireless transmissions, which is currently under FCC
regulations.
In the international markets there are various categories of government
regulations. In those countries that have accepted certain worldwide
standards, such as the FCC rulings or those from the European
Telecommunications Standards Institute, we are not expecting to experience
significant regulatory issues in bringing our products to market. Approval
in these markets involves retaining local testing agencies to verify specific
product compliance. However, many developing countries, including India and
China, have not fully developed or have no frequency allocation, equipment
certification, or telecommunications regulatory standards. In these types of
markets, we will actively work directly with industry standard bodies to
conform to worldwide standards regulations.
State and Local Regulation
The scope of the regulatory authority covers such matters as the terms
and conditions of interconnection between Local Exchange Carriers ("LECs")
and wireless carriers with respect to intrastate services, customer billing
information and practices, billing disputes, other consumer protection
matters, facilities construction issues, transfers of control, the bundling
of services and equipment and requirements relating to the availability of
capacity on a wholesale basis. In these areas particularly, the terms and
conditions of interconnection between LECs and wireless providers, the FCC
and state regulatory authorities share regulatory responsibilities with
respect to interstate and intrastate issues, respectively.
We may become an active participant in proceedings before the FCC and
before state regulatory authorities. Proceedings with respect to the foregoing
policy issues before the FCC and state regulatory authorities could have
significant impacts on the competitive market structure among wireless
providers and other carriers. We are unable at this point to predict the
scope, pace, or financial impact of policy changes which could be adopted
in these proceedings. To keep us apprised of developments in this area, we
will retain special FCC counsel in the event we deem it necessary.
Page Twenty Four
Industry Conditions and Cyclical Nature
The communications and/or telecommunications industry is an inherently
volatile market segment. Technologies that dominate a market over a
particular period can be made obsolete by newer technologies from competing
companies in a relatively short timeframe. We are attempting to mitigate this
risk by providing open standards and licensing/royalty arrangements, which can
create a new industry standard for bandwidth spectrum.
Lack of Liability Coverage
We do not maintain any liability coverage. In the event of any claim
against us or any of our assets we may not have the resources to defend the
Company which could have a material adverse effect on the future prospects.
Pursuit of Strategic Acquisitions and Alliances
We believe there are numerous opportunities to acquire other businesses
with established bases, compatible operations, experience with additional
synergistic aspects, and experienced management. We believe, that these
acquisitions, if successful, will result in mutually beneficial opportunities,
and could lead to an increase in our revenue and income growth. We intend to
seek opportunities to acquire businesses, services and/or technologies that
we believe will complement our business operations. We plan to seek
opportunistic acquisitions that may provide complementary services, expertise
or access to certain markets. No specific acquisition candidates have been
identified, and no assurance can be given that any transactions will be
effected, or if effected, will be successful.
In addition, we may execute strategic alliances with partners who have
established operations. As part of these joint venture agreements, we may
make investments in or purchase a part ownership in these joint ventures.
We believe that joint venture relationships, if successful, will result in
synergistic opportunities, allowing us to gain additional insight, expertise
and penetration in markets where joint venture partners already operate, and
may increase our revenue and income growth. No specific joint venture
agreements have been signed, and no assurance can be given that any
agreements will be effected, or if effected, will be successful.
At present, the Company is utilizing the resources of its major
shareholders and directors to fund operations. Nominal funds have been
received from sales to date of $4,280 and from the sale of some of the
Company's equipment totaling $7,287 and will not increase significantly
over the next twelve months.
The Company has not achieved revenues or profitability to date, and the
Company anticipates that it will continue to incur net losses for the
foreseeable future. The extent of these losses will depend, in part, on the
amount of growth in the Company's revenues from licensing of its technology.
As of June 30, 2003,the Company had an accumulated deficit of Ten Million Nine
Hundred and Thirty-Two Thousand Six Hundred($10,932,600) dollars.
The Company expects that its operating expenses will increase significantly
during the next several months, especially in the areas of engineering
development and sales and marketing. Thus, the Company will need to generate
increased revenues to achieve profitability. To the extent that increases in
its operating expenses precede or are not subsequently followed by
commensurate increases in revenues, or that the Company is unable to adjust
operating expense levels accordingly, the Company's business, results of
operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.
There can be no assurances that the Company can achieve or sustain
profitability or that the Company's operating losses will not increase in
the future.
Page Twenty Five
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's capital requirements have historically consisted of funding
operations and capital expenditures through the sale of common stock and the
exchange of common stock for services. The Company has no significant revenue
from operations.
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30,
2003 was ($2,859) compared with cash provided from operating activities for the
year ended December 31, 2002 of $234,623 which included a gain on settlement
of debt of $300,000.
The Company's working capital deficiency is currently $4,361,811 compared
With $4,239,588 at the year end. The greatest portion of the deficiency
relates to a note payable in connection with the asset purchase, which may be
reduced if certain conditions relating to the asset purchase as described
above.
The ability of the Company to meet its business objectives as described
above depend upon the Company raising the required capital. The Company is
exploring a number of funding opportunities at the moment. Discussions have
been on a verbal basis only to date.
The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures nor does
it foresee the need for such expenditures over the next year.
