ITEM 2. PLAN OF OPERATION
FSI does not currently engage in any business activities which provide
any cash flow. The costs of identifying, investigating, and analyzing business
combinations are being paid with money in FSI's treasury, and not with proceeds
received from FSI's initial public offering.
FSI may seek a business combination in the form of firms which have
recently commenced operations, are developing companies in need of additional
funds for expansion into new products or markets, are seeking to develop a new
product or service, or are established businesses which may be experiencing
financial or operating difficulties and are in need of additional capital. A
business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company
which does not need substantial additional capital but which desires to
establish a public trading market for its shares, while avoiding what it may
deem to be adverse consequences of undertaking a public offering itself, such as
time delays, significant expense, loss of voting control and compliance with
various Federal and State securities laws.
FSI will not acquire a target business unless the fair value of the
target business represents 80% of the maximum offering proceeds. To determine
the fair market value of a target business, FSI's management will examine the
certified financial statements (including balance sheets and statements of cash
flow and stockholders' equity) of any candidate and will participate in a
personal inspection of any potential target business.
Based upon management's experience with and knowledge of blank check
companies, the probable desire on the part of the owners of target businesses to
assume voting control over FSI (to avoid tax consequences or to have complete
authority to manage the business) will almost assure that FSI will combine with
just one target business. Management also anticipates that upon consummation of
a business combination, there will be a change in control in FSI which will most
likely result in the resignation or removal of FSI's present officers and
directors.

On July 21, 1999, FSI entered into a merger agreement with Platinum
Executive Search, Inc. a New York corporation. Pursuant to this agreement, PES
shall be merged into FSI, with FSI as the surviving entity. Thus, all PES
shareholders shall become shareholders of FSI as a result of the merger.
PES was founded in May 1999 to enter the human resource
industry through the acquisition of existing firms, and hiring employees with
experience in this industry. Since August 1999, PES has acquired two such firms:
Renaissance Leadership, a leadership development firm specialized in the
financial services industry; and Strupp Investments, L.L.C. (known as
"Success:), a firm specializing in executive search. James J. Strupp, an
officer, director and shareholder of PES, is principal of success. Additionally,
as of August 30, 1999, PES has entered into employment agreements with three
individuals, each of whom brings with his/her years of experience in executive
search and an established client base.
Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement between FSI and PES, upon
consummation of the merger PES shareholders shall hold 94% of FSI, and current
FSI shareholders and their assignees shall hold 6% of the issued and outstanding
common stock of FSI. Holders of FSI unregistered common stock shall have their
shares reverse split 1 for .3634383, and holders of FSI registered common stock
shall have their shares split 1 for 1.96648. FSI filed a post effective
amendment to its registration statement on Form SB-2 in September 1999. This
amendment contained information regarding PES including audited financial
statements of PES and its subsidiaries.
Investors should note that any merger or acquisition effected by FSI,
including the merger with PES can be expected to have a significant dilutive
effect on the percentage of shares held by FSI's then-shareholders, including
purchasers in this offering. On the consummation of a business combination, the
target business will have significantly more assets than FSI; therefore,
management plans to offer a controlling interest in FSI to the target business.
FSI and PES have attempted to structure the acquisition in a so-called
"tax-free" reorganization under Sections 368(a)(1) or 351 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1954, as amended (the "Code"). In order to obtain tax-free
treatment under the Code, it may be necessary for the owners of the acquired
business to own 80% or more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. In such
event, the shareholders of FSI, would retain less than 20% of the issued and
outstanding shares of the surviving entity, which would be likely to result in
significant dilution in the equity of such shareholders. Pursuant to the merger
agreement with PES, FSI shareholders and their assignees shall retain 6% of the
surviving entity. In addition, a majority of all of FSI's directors and officers
may, as part of the terms of the acquisition transaction, resign as directors
and officers.

Management anticipates that it may be able to effect only one potential
business combination, due primarily to FSI's limited financing. As a result, FSI
will not be able to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from
another.
The analysis of business combinations was undertaken by the
officers and directors of FSI, none of whom is a professional
business analyst. In analyzing prospective business combinations, management
considered such matters as the available technical, financial, and managerial
resources; working capital and other financial requirements; prospects for the
future; nature of present and expected competition; the quality and experience
of management services which may be available and the depth of that management;
the potential for growth or expansion; the potential for profit; the perceived
public recognition or acceptance or products; name identification; and other
relevant factors.
Management did not actively negotiate or otherwise consent to the
purchase of any portion of their common stock as a condition to or in connection
with the proposed merger with PES.
The securities to be issued in the merger shall be issued in reliance
on exemptions from registration under applicable federal and state securities
laws.
The terms of the merger were based upon the respective needs and
desires of FSI and PES and the relative negotiating strength of FSI and such
other management.
FSI has adopted a policy that it will not pay a finder's fee to any
member of management for locating a merger or acquisition candidate. No member
of management intends to or may seek and negotiate for the payment of finder's
fees.
FSI does not intend to raise any additional capital prior to
consummation of a business combination within the next twelve months.
