PART I

Item 1. Description of Business.

A. Business Development

The Company was incorporated on May 10, 1991 in Delaware for the purpose of consolidating the operations of Azimuth, Inc. (a fully accredited AIHA Industrial Hygiene Laboratory for testing asbestos, metals and organic vapors) and certain of its ormer environmental products businesses and acquiring the assets of four general partnerships which were then leasing real estate and laboratory and other equipment to Azimuth and the products businesses. The Company formerly had three operating subsidiaries: Trico Environmetrics, Inc. (“Trico”), Envirometrics Products Company (“EPC”) and Azimuth, Inc.

In 1996, the Company entered into a “Turnaround” phase, and all of the Company’s former operations were divested by the year 2000.

During the course of the Company’s “Turnaround” phase, the Company explored alternative plans for growth that included the identification of companies in other markets which had greater growth potential than the Environmental, Health and Safety Market. In September, 1999, the Company was introduced to The Catapult Group, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“Catapult”), which was an Internet integration firm offering intelligent end-to-end e-business solutions to large and middle-market organizations. In February 2000, the Company and Catapult reached terms that each felt were fair to the parties and entered into a non-binding agreement whereby Rainwire would acquire Catapult, which became binding on March 8, 2000.

Prior to the closing of the Catapult Exchange Agreement, on July 26, 2000, Registrant effected a 10:1 reverse split of its outstanding common stock, issued 5,555,064 shares of its common stock to purchase all of the outstanding common stock of Catapult, changed its name to The Catapult Group, Inc. and increased its authorized shares from Ten Million (10,000,000) to Twenty Million (20,000,000). An amendment to Registrant’s Certificate of Incorporation reflecting such changes was filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on July 26, 2000. Upon completion of the Catapult Exchange Agreement, Catapult became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the shareholders of Catapult became owners of approximately 90% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company. The Company subsequently changed its name to Rainwire Partners, Inc.

On December 31, 2000, management adopted a plan to discontinue the operations of the Company and to liquidate its assets.

B. Business of Issuer

Upon completion of the Share Exchange with The Catapult Group, Inc., Rainwire’s business became that of an Internet integration firm offering intelligent end-to-end e-business solutions to large and middle-market organizations. Rainwire’s e-business operations were unsuccessful, and as a result of the incurring of significant losses, Rainwire adopted a plan to discontinue the operations of the Company and to liquidate its assets as of December 31, 2000. Additionally, as

 


Table of Contents

of that date, Rainwire began to explore alternative plans for growth, which included the identification of companies in markets that had greater growth potential than the market for e-business solutions

After exploring a number of options for acquisition or merger, on August 29, 2001, Rainwire entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Oasis Group, Inc. (“Oasis”), which was amended on December 19, 2001. On September 25, 2002, the Company terminated the Amended and Restated Plan and Agreement to Exchange Stock with Oasis, whereby Oasis would have become a wholly owned subsidiary. In addition, on September 25, 2002, the Company withdrew its Registration Statement on Form S-4 in connection with the Share Exchange (the “Registration Statement”).

D. Employees

Presently, the Company has no full-time employees other than executive officers.

Item 2. Description of Property.

The Company presently has no office facilities but for the time being will use as its business address the office of Signature Horizons Group, Inc., on a rent free basis, until such time as our business operations may require more extensive facilities and we have the financial ability to rent commercial office space. There is presently no formal agreement for the use of theses facilities, and we can make no assurance that these facilities will be available to us on this basis for any specific length of time.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved with several legal actions, principally as defendant. These actions involve outstanding liabilities of the Company including those of subsidiaries. Following are four such actions.

On or about February 13, 2001, a complaint was filed in Miller v. Envirometrics, Inc. (Case No. 01-CP-10-562) in the Common Pleas Court of Charleston County alleging that Azimuth Laboratory, Inc., a subsidiary of Envirometrics, violated provisions of its lease, damaged the leasehold, and abandoned hazardous waste on the site. Miller seeks recovery in excess of One Hundred Thirty Thousand and 00/100 ($130,000.00) Dollars. The parties are in serious settlement negotiations.

On or about September 27, 2001, we filed a complaint in Rainwire Partners, Inc. v. Risk Technologies and Richard Bennett (Case No. 01-CP-10-3749) in the Common Pleas Court of Charleston County. The suit seeks collection of sums owed Rainwire pursuant to a Promissory Note in the amount of Twenty Thousand Three Hundred Seventy-Five and 84/100 ($20,375.84) Dollars plus interest. Defendants filed a counterclaim, asserting an assignment valued at Twenty-One Thousand Three Hundred and 00/100 ($21,300.00) Dollars from Shakespeare Partners, L.P. for shares of stock and monies due Shakespeare. The parties have reached a settlement in principle and are preparing the appropriate agreements.

On or about October 2, 2001, a complaint was filed in Courtyards on King, LLC v. Rainwire (Case No. 01-CP-10-3826) in the Common Pleas Court of Charleston County for violation of a lease seeking an unspecified sum. Rainwire filed a Counterclaim for damages against both Courtyards and Christopher Price, its agent, for Conversion of Properties belonging to Rainwire Partners, Inc.

On or about March 4, 2003, a complaint was filed in Cynthia Demonte d/b/a Demonte Associates v. Signature Horizons, Inc. and Rainwire Partners, Inc (Case No. 103790/03) in the Supreme Court of the State of New York County of New York. The suit alleges a breach of contract by defendants for services rendered in the amount of $15,000. Rainwire was not a party to the contact in dispute and believes that it has meritorious legal and factual arguments in this matter.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Securities Holders

On October 10, 2002, Rainwire’s Board of Directors unanimously approved an Amendment to Rainwire’s Certificate of Incorporation that increased the number of authorized shares from 20,000,000 to 300,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001, and increased the number of authorized shares from 2,500,000 to 30,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001. The amendment was approved by a majority of Rainwire’s stockholders by written consent on October 18, 2002.

On October 11, 2002, Rainwire filed a Preliminary Information Statement on Schedule 14C in connection with the proposed amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation. Rainwire filed the Definitive Information Statement on Schedule 14C on November 12, 2002. Rainwire filed the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on December 6, 2002.

E. Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series D”)

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes 2,500,000 shares of preferred stock and provides that the Board of Directors may, by resolution, fix the rights and limitations of our preferred stock. The Board of Directors had previously utilized this authority to authorize 70,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, 208,640 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and 74,878 shares of Series C Preferred Stock.

On October 15, 2001, our Board of Directors approved the creation, authorized the issuance, and fixed the designation of 500,000 share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. On October 15, 2001, our Board of Directors further approved the exchange of 500,000 shares of our Series D Convertible Preferred Stock for 10,000,000 of our common stock owned by Osprey Investments, LLC. Ms. Marchessault abstained from the latter director vote. On or about October 26, 2001, we filed a Certificate of Designation of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock with the Delaware Division of Corporations. Described below is a summary of the terms of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock.

     Convertibility

The Series D is immediately convertible at the option of the holder into Ten Million (10,000,000) shares of the common stock of the Company. If the Company shall fail to pay a dividend to the holders of the Series D for two consecutive quarters, the Series D shall be convertible into fifty million (50,000,000) shares of the common stock of the Company so long as such dividends remain unpaid. As of the date of the filing of this Annual Report, the Company has failed to pay a dividend for two consecutive quarters and the conversion feature has been triggered, although the holder has not converted the preferred stock.

     Redemption

The Company may redeem the Series D, in whole or in part, at any time, at a redemption price equal to the sum of any accrued but unpaid dividends and $1.00 per share redeemed.

     Dividends

and as declared by our Board of Directors. Dividends on Series D shall be payable on a quarterly basis.

     Liquidation Preference

If the Company were dissolved or liquidated, voluntarily or involuntarily, the holders of the Series D would be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of our assets to the holders of any of our other equity securities, other than our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, an amount equal to $1.00 per share.

     Voting Rights

On all matters on which the holders of our common stock are entitled to vote, each holder of Series D shall be entitled to ten (10) votes for each share of Series D standing in his or her name on the books of the Company. In addition, the holders of the Series D shall be entitled to elect the majority of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Investors are cautioned that certain statements in this 10-KSB are “forward looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-KSB.

A. Financial Condition

The Company is solely dependent on advances from related parties to continue in existence as the Company is in a negative financial position, has discontinued its operations as of December 31, 2000 and has substantial past due obligations and commitments. Its audited financial

 


Table of Contents

statements disclose a “going concern” paragraph in its most recent audited financial statements and nothing has changed that circumstance to date. The Company has no employees or facilities.

B. Plan of Operations.

For the near term, the Company is financially dependent on its shareholders, related parties and /or management, who have financed its existence to date.

Item 7. Financial Statements

See “Financial Statements and Notes to Financial Statements” set forth on pages F-1 through F-11 of this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.

Item 8. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosures.

In connection with Welch, Roberts & Amburn, LLP’s audits of the financial statements of the Company, there were no disagreements with Welch, Roberts & Amburn, LLP on any matter of accounting principles, financial disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement.

The audit reports of Welch, Roberts & Amburn, LLP on the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 1999, and 1998 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion; however, the unqualified opinion contained a fourth paragraph with respect to an emphasis of a paragraph discussing recurring losses from operations and decreases in working capital issues confronting the Company.

The Company had also engaged the firm of Tauber & Balser, P.C. in connection with the audit of the consolidated balance sheet of The Catapult Group, Inc., and Subsidiary as of December 31, 1999, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from July 21, 1999 (inception) to December 31, 1999.

In connection with the audit as of December 31, 1999, and for the period from July 21, 1999 (inception) to December 31, 1999, there was no disagreement with Tauber & Balser, P.C. on any matter of accounting principles, financial disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreement if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement.

 


Table of Contents

The audit report of Tauber & Balser, P.C. on the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999 was issued with an unqualified opinion.

On or about September 9, 2001, the Company notified Tauber & Balser, P.C. that it had engaged the firm of Braverman & Company, P.C., to conduct the audit of its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2000, and the subsequent interim period through September 9, 2001, the Company did not consult with Braverman & Co., P.C. regarding the application of generally accepted accounting principles to a specific transaction, either proposed or completed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

The members of Rainwire’s Board of Directors, the executive officers of Rainwire and persons who hold more than 10% of Rainwire’s outstanding Common Stock are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which require them to file reports with respect to their ownership of the Company’s Common Stock and their transactions in such Common Stock. Based upon (1) the copies of Section 16(a) reports that Rainwire received from such persons for transactions in the Common Stock and their Common Stock holdings from December 31, 2001 through December 31, 2002, and (2) the written representations received from one or more of such persons that no annual Form 5 reports were required to be filed by them for such period, Rainwire believes that all reporting requirements under Section 16(a) for such period were met in a timely manner by its executive officers, Board members and greater than ten-percent stockholders, except as described herein.

Mr. McLaughlin, Ms. Evans and Ms. Marchessault inadvertently failed to timely file a Form 4 with the Commission to report their receipt of stock as compensation in December 2002. The Company has taken steps to ensure that its officers and directors are aware of the requirements for the filing of these reports and intends to improve its assistance in the preparation of these reports in the future.

Item 12. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Signature Horizons, Inc, (“Signature”), formerly Oasis Group, Inc., provided approximately $150,000 of advances to the Company as of December 31, 2002, of which $35,000 was advanced during the year 2002. In addition Signature contributed capital of $312,200 for the two years ended December 31, 2002 of which $272,200 was for 2002. Included in the total for 2002 was approximately $250,000 of costs incurred by Signature for legal, audit and accounting principally in connection with the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding a share exchange with Signature, which was withdrawn during the year due to the inability of the Company and Signature to provide all of the information required in the filing, as well as the time and capital necessary to complete it. The remainder of contributed capital for both years consisted of office overhead and other management services at fair value. Peggy A. Evans, our Chief Financial Officer and a director, is also Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and a director of Signature. Ms. Evans was formerly the Chief Financial Officer of Signature.

The Company presently has no office facilities but for the time being will use as its business address the office of Signature, on a rent free basis, until such time as our business operations may require more extensive facilities and we have the financial ability to rent commercial office space. There is presently no formal agreement for the use of theses facilities, and we can make no assurance that these facilities will be available to us on this basis for any specific length of time.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Rainwire Partners, Inc.
Alpharetta, Georgia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Rainwire Partners, Inc. ( a Delaware corporation in the development stage) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period then ended and the accumulated amounts during the development stage for the same period. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Rainwire Partners, Inc. as of December 31, 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the each of the two years in the period then ended and the accumulated amounts for the same period in conformity with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered substantial recurring losses and has a deficit working capital and equity as of December 31, 2002. It has also discontinued its entire business operations and is dependent upon its shareholders and an affiliate for all cash flow requirements. The Company needs the ability to develop additional sources of capital, and/or achieve profitable operations through a merger or acquisition. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — THE COMPANY AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company

Rainwire Partners, Inc., or RPID or the Company, (formerly Envirometrics, Inc. or EVRM) was incorporated in Delaware in 1991. The Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of The Catapult Group, Inc. renamed Rainwire Partners, Inc. (RPIG) a Georgia corporation on July 26, 2000, in a qualifying reorganization under Section 368 (a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Prior to the stock exchange, the Company’s operations had involved consulting services in environmental and occupational health matters in addition to providing the services of an American Industrial Hygiene Association and National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program, principally in the Charleston, South Carolina area, with sales throughout the United States. RPIG was formed in July 1999, to provide internet consulting, systems development and integration as well as marketing and communications solutions to Global 2000 and middle-market companies. Its operations were discontinued in April 2000. On December 31, 2000, management adopted a plan to dispose of the entire business of the Company.

During 2001 and 2002 the Company stayed in the discontinued operational mode, and its efforts were largely devoted to maintenance of existing obligations, filing of periodic and annual reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and pursing various financial opportunities including the filing of a Form S-4 in early 2002, in connection with a share exchange transaction with Signature Horizons, Inc. (formerly Oasis Group, Inc.) which was subsequently withdrawn by the Company. The fiscal year end of the Company is December 31.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 include the financial statements of the Company and subsidiaries for all periods presented. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Financial Statement Presentation

The historical cost basis of all assets and liabilities of RPIG and its former and present consolidated operating results have been presented from July 21, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2002. For accounting purposes, the acquisition has been treated as a recapitalization of RPIG. RPIG is considered the accounting acquirer, because it became the owner of 90% of the total shares outstanding of the common stock of RPID, on a fully diluted basis. The consolidated statements of operations included herein are those of RPIG and its subsidiary i20, Inc. The former operating results of EVRM have been eliminated. The consolidated balance sheet presented herein includes all assets and liabilities of EVRM as of the date of recapitalization at fair value, as well as RPIG and its subsidiary, i20, Inc. at historical cost.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — THE COMPANY AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in the Company’s financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments, which include accounts payable and accruals, approximate fair values due to the short-term maturities of such instruments.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for using the liability method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary difference between financial and tax reporting of which depreciation is the most significant. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to more likely than not realized in future tax returns. Tax law and rate changes are reflected in income in the period such changes are enacted.

The net operating loss carry-forwards for the Company on a consolidated basis approximate $5,000,000 as of December 31, 2001 and will expire at various dates through year 2020, if unutilized. Due to a more than 50% change in ownership of the Company’s outstanding common stock for the latest testing period ended July 26, 2000, a Code Section 382 limitation on use of the loss carry-forwards became substantially limited to $250,000 annually.

RAINWIRE PARTNERS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — THE COMPANY AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

The deferred tax benefit of the consolidated losses of $5,000,000 is approximately $1,750,000, however that amount was offset completely by a valuation allowance of equal amount, since management cannot determine, at the present time, that it is more likely than not that such benefit will be utilized in future periods.

For the year 2002, approximately $272,000 of the total consolidated loss of $345,000 is not tax deductible as it relates to contributed capital. The difference of approximately $73,000 results in a potential tax benefit of approximately $25,000 which is not currently realizable, in the opinion of management, therefore, a valuation allowance of $25,000 has been established.

Loss Per Share

Net loss per share is provided in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS No.128) “Earnings Per Share”. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s ability to continue in existence is dependent upon its ability to develop additional sources of capital, and/or achieve profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management’s present plan is to acquire a profitable company having the ability to generate additional cash flows from either the sale of securities or through operations to sustain the Company’s future existence.

NOTE 2 — REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

As of December 31, 2002, there were 24,959 Series C preferred shares outstanding valued at $52,911, including accretion. Approximately 2/3rd of the Series C preferred shares which were issued in 1998, were converted to common stock and the balance were put to the Company for redemption by the holder thereof, however, no redemption was made resulting in a judgment against the Company as more fully explained in legal actions below.

On October 15, 2001, a shareholder who had earlier during the year converted its unsecured loan to the Company of $60,000 for 12,000,000 shares of common stock, exchanged 10,000,000 of the shares received for 500,000 Series D preferred shares valued at $50,000 . All preferred shares have cumulative dividends, none of which were declared by the Board of Directors as of December 31, 2002. Preferred stock is convertible into common stock at the rate of 20 shares of common stock for 1 share of preferred stock. Series D preferred shares are convertible at the rate

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 — REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK (continued)

of 100 shares of common stock for 1 share of preferred stock if no dividends have been paid for two consecutive quarters. As of December 31, 2002 accumulated unpaid dividends on Series D convertible preferred stock were $60,000.

The 10,000,000 shares the Company received in exchange for the issuance of the redeemable preferred stock in 2001 are held as treasury shares at a total cost of $50,000.

NOTE 3 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On December 31, 2002, the Board of Directors approved compensation for the CEO of the Company for $100,000, and two Board members for $12,500 each, and the issuance of 12,500,000 shares of common stock as payment thereof, which was given effect to as of December 31, 2002, including the recording of applicable withheld payroll taxes of the employee, and employer payroll taxes totaling approximately $41,000, that have been included in other accrued liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet .

Legal Actions

The Company is involved with several legal actions, principally as defendant. These actions involve outstanding liabilities of the Company including those of subsidiaries. All known outstanding liabilities, including anticipated legal fees and costs have been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. There has been little progress during 2002 on the settlement of any of these actions. Following are two such actions.

Azimuth Laboratory, Inc., a subsidiary of EVRM, generated hazardous waste during the time of its operations which ceased in April 2000. According to a former landlord, Azimuth was responsible for a hazardous waste cleanup on the leased premises, and he is seeking recovery of approximately $130,000, including the cleanup and remaining payments due under the terms of the lease agreement, which expired in December 2001. A motion for summary judgment was filed by the plaintiff, and the parties are in settlement negotiations. Only the remaining unpaid rentals under the lease obligation have been recorded as of December 31, 2002, of approximately $66,000.

A judgment against the Company was obtained by the holder of the remaining Series C redeemable preferred stock for $21,666 relating to the failure by the Company to redeem 8,333 of those shares and to pay dividends when due. The majority of that amount was recorded as of December 31, 2002.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (continued)

Disposition of Corporate Property

Approximately 20 employees of the Company were still employed when the decision was made to discontinue the operations of the Company on December 31, 2000. Substantially all employees either resigned or terminated by February 28, 2001. No payroll tax reports have been filed with taxing authorities for any wages paid since 2000, although related payroll taxes were paid for salaries and wages recorded by the Company in 2000. It is probable that all compensation has not been reported for equipment, vehicles and other corporate property obtained by employees when the company ceased its operations in 2001, Accordingly, the Company and/or its employees may have some liability for payroll and/or or sales taxes in connection with this matter. No liability has been provided for this contingency as the actions by the employees were not approved in all cases by management, and management believes that any liability arising from this matter will not be material to the Company.

SBA Loan

Azimuth Laboratories ,Inc. sold certain assets to a party in April 2000 who assumed the remaining balance of an underlying loan from the Small Business Administration. However, the Company’s subsidiary was not relieved of liability on the obligation, and remains contingently liable for the balance of less than $50,000 as of December 31, 2002. The notes are due in monthly instalments of $1,408 with 4% interest, and mature in July 2005.

The subsidiary was owed approximately $30,000 by the purchaser, however, that obligation has not been paid to the Company, it is unrecorded due to its contingent payment, and some or all of that amount is being held in escrow pending either the payoff of the SBA loan, or when the purchaser is successful in becoming the only principal on the note. The outstanding balance of the SBA loan less the amount owed the Company at December 31, 2002 approximates less than $30,000, which is included in accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2002.

NOTE 4 — OPERATING LEASES

Included in the accrual for estimated loss on disposal of the business are future rentals on lease obligations totaling approximately $300,000, of which $ 228,734 relates to the balance owing on a 5 year lease expiring in 2005, which had annual lease payments of approximately $50,000 per year. The Company is seeking to mitigate the outstanding lease liability as the landlord had seized and or sold some of the equipment in partial satisfaction of the past due lease rentals. No action has been taken to date on this matter.

NOTE 5 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On December 31, 2000, management adopted a plan to discontinue the operations of the Company and to liquidate its assets. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements subsequent to 2000 have given effect to this date as the measurement date, since a loss was

sustained for both discontinued operations and disposal of the business. A disposal loss was provided for all estimated costs and expenses to be incurred during the post phase-out period. Subsequently, very few liabilities have been extinguished and no material change has occurred in the original estimate of the disposal loss.

NOTE 6 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Contributed Capital

Signature Horizons Inc, (SHI), provided approximately $150,000 of advances to the Company as of December 31, 2002, of which $35,000 was advanced during the year 2002. In addition SHI contributed capital of $312,200 for the two years ended December 31, 2002 of which $272,200 was for 2002. Included in the total for 2002 was approximately $250,000 of costs incurred by SHI for legal, audit and accounting principally in connection with the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding a share exchange with SHI, which was withdrawn during the year due to the inability of the Company and SHI to provide all of the information required in the filing, as well as the time and capital necessary to complete it. The remainder of contributed capital for both years consisted of office overhead and other management services at fair value.

Common Stock Issuances

Compensation was recorded during 2002 for services rendered by the Board of Directors of the Company valued at $25,000 for which 2,500,000 restricted common shares were issued at a value of $.01 per share. In addition, the CEO of the Company was given 10,000,000 shares valued at $.00671 per share or $67,100 plus the related payroll taxes of $32,900 which was accrued as of December 31, 2002, for total compensation of $100,000.
