RISK FACTORS
Investors can have difficulty evaluating our prospects because we
commenced business in the fall of 1998 and have a limited operating history for
investors to analyze.
We began building our infrastructure and our research and development
for our intranet in February 1997 and offer a limited relevant operating
history. You should consider our prospects in light of the risks, expenses and
difficulties frequently encountered by new businesses in connection with the
marketing and sale of new products and services.
Our projected losses raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue
operations unless we obtain financing or generate adequate revenues.
Unless we generate sufficient revenues or obtain financing through this
offering or another means, our operations in the development stage raise
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We had net
losses of $817,430 for the year ended December 31, 1997 and $2,141,978 for the
year ended December 31, 1998. We have had limited revenues since inception. We
had no revenues from inception through December 31, 1997. We had revenues of
$89,169 in 1998. We expect to incur up-front operating costs to expand our
marketing efforts, which may result in further losses. We will not be profitable
until we establish a broader customer base for our services and derive
substantial revenues from our sale of communications and intranet services.
Because our business depends on a limited number of products, the lack of
success for any one of them would reduce the value of our securities.
Our business may be adversely affected if we receive lower than
anticipated revenues from either of our two principal sources:
o communications services with value added features for
broker/dealers and financial advisors, and
o marketing services for mutual funds and other financial product
companies.
Telecommunications companies and others with greater resources and name
recognition could make it very difficult to compete.
Telecommunications companies and other distributors of financial
information are our most significant competitors. Many competitors have greater
financial, technical, marketing, sales and customer support and other resources.
Many competitors have reputations for successfully developing, licensing and
selling their products and technologies. Competitors may be able to undertake
more extensive marketing campaigns and adopt more aggressive pricing policies
than we. They may be able to add value-added services, similar to ours. In that
case, we may face significant price competition and reduced profit margins. We
may not be able to compete successfully with larger companies.
Technological changes have lowered the cost of operating in our industry, which
has increased competition and could reduce anticipated profit margins.
Technological changes have lowered the cost of operating communications
and computer systems and purchasing software. These changes reduce our cost of
providing services but also facilitate increased competition by reducing
competitors' costs in providing similar services. Such competition could
increase price competition and reduce anticipated profit margins.
Our lack of patent or copyright protection may increase the difficulty of
protecting our rights to our technology.
We regard the technology we use as proprietary, but have no existing or
pending patent or copyright protection. Our success depends in part on our
ability to protect our technology and other intellectual property by relying on
one or
5
<PAGE>
more of the following:
o confidentiality agreements with employees and third parties
o license agreements with consultants, vendors and customers
o trade secret laws
o trademark laws
o common law copyright
We have signed agreements with third parties who have access to our technology.
Despite such protections, a third party could copy or otherwise obtain and use
our products or technology, or develop similar technology independently. We may
be forced to litigate to protect our interests. Litigation of this type is
frequently expensive. We may not have the financial resources to pursue such
litigation. We cannot be assured of success without patent and copyright
protection.
Because success in offering our intranet and other communications services
depends on constantly changing technologies, our success in developing and using
the proprietary data mining software depends on our ability to protect our
proprietary technology from adverse claims.
While we consider our technology unique, others utilize similar
technologies. These companies may claim that we have breached their copyrights,
patents or proprietary rights. We may be forced to litigate these disputes. This
litigation would be expensive with no assurance of success. To our knowledge, we
do not infringe on any other proprietary technologies and we have received no
claims alleging infringement from others.
We currently have no assured sources for additional financing, and our success
may depend on our ability to obtain further financing following this offering.
We anticipate that the net proceeds from the sale of all of the shares
and income from operations will satisfy our financial requirements for at least
24 months following the date of this prospectus. We base this expectation on our
current operating plan. The plan may change because of events within and outside
of our control. In the event of a change, we may require additional financing
sooner than anticipated. Opportunities including an acquisition may arise which
may require additional financing. We may not be able to obtain funding on a
timely basis, on favorable terms, or at all. We do not have a credit facility
or any committed source of financing. Our business, financial condition and
results of operations will suffer if we are unable to obtain the financing we
need or to generate sufficient funds from operations. Although we anticipate
that we will continue to offer our existing services to additional customers,
we may curtail our planned expansion and may be unable to fund ongoing
operations.
The ability of our officers and principal shareholders to control our business
may limit minority shareholders' ability to influence corporate affairs.
As of October 1, 1999, Michael Sheppard, President, Maura Marx,
Executive Vice President and Ben B. Stein, a consultant, own approximately 21.0%
of the outstanding shares of our common stock. They would own 35.2% of the
outstanding shares of common stock if they exercised all their options with an
exercise price of $.19 per share prior to completion of this offering. They
would own 20.7% of the outstanding shares of common stock if they exercised all
their options and we sold all 10,909,091 shares in this offering and the selling
securityholders exercised all their warrants and converted all their promissory
notes. The exercise of such options by Messrs. Sheppard and Stein and Ms. Marx
may enable them to elect our directors and determine our policies.
Because we only have a single location for our computer equipment and no
secondary systems, any disruption to our computer system could adversely affect
our business.
Substantially all of our communications hardware and computer hardware
operations are located at our offices in Ardsley, New York. Our system is
vulnerable to damage from:
6
<PAGE>
o fire,
o flood,
o power loss,
o telecommunications failures, and
o break-ins and similar events.
We do not have any secondary systems, although we intend to establish
such a system with the proceeds of a maximum offering. We believe that a total
system failure would not result in interruption of our business for more than
two weeks. We have a disaster recovery plan and carry business interruption
insurance. However, any significant failure in our services could cause
significant harm to our customer relations.
Our potential issuance of shares upon the exercise of options or conversion of
promissory notes at prices below the offering price could reduce the market
price of our stock.
The purchase of our stock by these investors or their potential of
purchases at below market price may reduce the market price of our stock. We
have issued stock options, warrants and convertible notes to persons who
invested in us or provided goods, services or credit. These people have the
right to purchase up to 12,015,299 shares at various prices below that offered
in this prospectus.
The sale of shares by selling security holders at the same time that we sell
shares could reduce the market price of our stock.
This prospectus is part of a larger registration statement. The
registration statement contains a second prospectus which allows a number of
investors to sell up to 7,310,000 shares of stock. The selling security
holders' sale of their shares may reduce the market price of our stock. Some of
the shares can only be offered after the investors have exercised warrants, but
the exercise prices of the warrants are below the market price of our stock. If
sales by the selling security holders cause the market price of our stock to
fall below our offering price, we may be unable to complete the offering of our
common stock which would reduce the proceeds to Financial Intranet.
The price of our stock may decrease as a result of sales of stock that are not
currently freely tradeable.
6,079,570 shares of common stock held by present shareholders have not
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The stock can be sold under
Rule 144. Sales of substantial amounts of stock under Rule 144 could adversely
affect the market price of the shares and make it more difficult for us to sell
our stock in the future.
The failure of third party vendors to be year 2000 compliant could adversely
affect us.
We work with a number of sophisticated companies in the
telecommunications industry, including Siemens and Frontier, who have certified
that they are year 2000 compliant. However, entities with which we transact
business, including customers and vendors may suffer from the year 2000 problem.
We cannot be certain their products or systems are year 2000 compliant. We
cannot predict the effects of the year 2000 problem on such entities or on the
economy in general, or the resulting effects on us. We may suffer interruptions
or additional expense or lose revenue to the extent customers or vendors are not
compliant.

USE OF PROCEEDS
The gross and net proceeds which we will receive from the sale of the common
stock cannot be fully determined. The following table shows the use of proceeds
in three different situations depending on the success of our offering. In each
case, we assume our offering expenses will be approximately $180,000.

</TABLE>
Our allocation of net proceeds represents our best estimate based upon
present plans. We may reallocate some of the proceeds if our plans change. We
have broad discretion as to the application of a significant portion of the net
proceeds without having to seek the approval of the investors in this offering.
Future events may cause us to reallocate our resources, including cash, for uses
not presently contemplated by us.
Selling commissions of up to $600,000 and non-accountable expense
allowances of up to $180,000 may be deducted from the proceeds and a
reallocation would occur if any broker/dealers participate in the offering.
We believe that the net proceeds from its offering and revenues
generated by planned operations will satisfy our working capital needs for the
next 24 months. However, Financial Intranet may require additional financing to
expand its business. We will require additional financing for any acquisitions
and do not know the means or terms of financing any acquisition or whether such
financing would be available on acceptable terms. We have no commitments or
understandings for any acquisitions.
If we receive minimal proceeds from this offering, we anticipate using
$300,000 of such investment for marketing and sales and the balance for
repayment of the promissory note and working capital. Financial Intranet can't
predict the amount or potential source of other funds and has no current other
commitments to obtain such funds. We can't be assured of obtaining additional
financing on acceptable terms when needed.
A portion of the proceeds will be used to repay a promissory note in
the principal amount of $120,000 plus accrued interest at the rate of 8% per
annum, which note is due on December 26, 1999. We executed the note on September
27, 1999 and are using the proceeds for payment of past due accounts payable and
working capital.

DILUTION
Purchasers of the shares of Financial Intranet will experience an immediate and
substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share of their
investment. As of June 30, 1999, Financial Intranet had an aggregate of
23,624,292 shares of common stock outstanding and a net tangible book value of
$(308,408) or $(.01) per share of common stock. See the June 30, 1999 financial
statements. "Net Tangible Book Value Per Share" represents the total amount of
Financial Intranet's tangible assets, less the total amount of its liabilities,
divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding.
Maximum Offering
Our proforma net tangible book value would be $.08 per share after giving effect
to our sale of 10,909,091 shares at the offering price of $0.275 per share of
common stock. This amount represents an immediate dilution of approximately
$.195 per share of common stock to new investors. At the same time, it
represents an immediate increase of $.15 per share of common stock to
stockholders. Dilution is defined as the difference between the attributed price
per share of common stock to purchasers in Financial Intranet's offering and the
proforma net tangible book value per share of common stock as of June 30, 1999.
The increase is defined as the difference between the proforma net tangible book
value per share of common stock as of June 30, 1999 and the proforma net
tangible book value per share of common stock as of June 30, 1999 after giving
effect to the issuance of 7,310,000 shares of common stock. Such increase to
current stockholders is solely attributable to the cash price paid by purchasers
of the common stock offered for sale by Financial Intranet.
The following table illustrates the per share dilution as of June 30, 1999:

Dilution per share to purchasers in Financial Intranet's offering $ .135
</TABLE>
In order to make these calculations, we included the following:
o 3,485,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants
issued to selling securityholders;
o 2,250,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the selling
securityholders' convertible promissory notes; and
o 1,575,000 shares of common stock issued to the selling securityholders.
We excluded the following:
o 898,442 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock
options and warrants at exercise prices from $.18 to $1.20 per share;
o 5,202,162 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of options at an
exercise price of $.19 per share; or
o shares that may be issuable under anti-dilution provisions and market price
protection provisions of convertible promissory notes issued to the selling
security holders.

future. Financial Intranet currently intends to retain all working capital and
earnings, if any, to finance its business operations and expansion. The payment
of any cash dividends will be at the discretion of the board of directors and
will be dependent upon Financial Intranet's results of operations, financial
condition, capital requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors
deemed relevant by the board of directors.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes included elsewhere in this prospectus.
Results of operations:
Year ended December 31, 1998 compared with year ended December 31, 1997
Revenue
Our principal source of revenue was income from the resale of telephone and data
communication. Revenue for the year ended December 31, 1998 was $89,169 as
compared with no revenue in the prior year. Financial Intranet is a development
stage company and in 1997 had not commenced operations. We expect to derive
growth in revenues primarily through increased volume of communications usage
sold.
Cost of revenue
Financial Intranet's cost of revenue consists primarily of telephone
communications lines and the internet access and hosting expenses required to
support and deliver Financial Intranet's communications services. Cost of
revenues for the year ended December 31, 1998 was $163,033 compared with no
costs in the prior year. We expect cost of revenues to increase in direct
relationship to the future revenues anticipated from increases in usage volume.
Sales and marketing expenses
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of commissions to our sales force
and promotional, advertising and public relations costs. Sales and marketing
expenses decreased 10% from $55,794 in 1997 to $50,246 in 1998. Lower
advertising and promotion costs were partially offset by commission expenses
paid to Financial Intranet's sales force, which did not exist in 1997. We expect
sales and marketing expenses to increase due to the growth of the sales force as
well as the increased advertising and promotional activities.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of
o employee compensation and related expenses (including payroll taxes and
benefits) for executive, administrative and operations personnel
o licensing, legal and other professional fees
o travel and entertainment
o facility and office-related costs such as rent, insurance and telephone.
These costs increased 32% from $748,214 in 1997 to $988,509 in 1998 principally
due to increased payroll and office costs, as well as higher legal fees and a
$41,200 reserve for the potential uncollectibility of a long-term note
receivable. Included in these 1998 costs are $90,626 in non-cash issuance of
common stock to outside consultants in lieu of services performed. Management
expects general and administrative expenses to increase in future periods to
support the growth of the business.
Other financing-related expenses
Other financing-related expenses charged to operations consist of non-cash costs
of the issuance of common stock, warrants and stock options. These expenses
increased from $13,272 in 1997 to $897,808 in 1998.
Depreciation and amortization
14
<PAGE>
Depreciation and amortization consists primarily of depreciation of computer
equipment and amortization of software development costs. These activities were
effectively placed in service in 1998. No depreciation and amortization costs
existed in 1997. The 1998 expenses were $129,413, which represents a half-year
of depreciation and amortization.
Other income and expense
Other income consists principally of interest from loans, notes receivable and
short-term investments. Interest and other income increased 67% from $ 2,475 for
the year ended December 31, 1997 to $4,140 for the year ended December 31, 1998.
Interest expense consists of interest accrued on loans and notes payable to
officers. Interest expense more than doubled from $2,675 for the year ended
December 31, 1997 to $6,278 for the year ended December 31, 1998.
Income taxes
No provision for federal and state income taxes has been recorded as Financial
Intranet incurred net operating losses in both 1997 and 1998. Financial Intranet
had approximately $634,000 of net operating loss carryforward for federal income
tax purposes as of December 31, 1997. We have not determined the net operating
loss carryforward as of December 31, 1998 because we have not filed our tax
returns for such period. The net operating loss will be available to offset
future taxable income. Given Financial Intranet's limited operating history,
losses incurred to date and the difficulty in accurately forecasting Financial
Intranet's future results, management does not believe that the realization of
the potential future benefits of these carryforwards meets the criteria for
recognition of a deferred tax asset required by generally accepted accounting
principles and, accordingly, a full 100% valuation allowance has been provided.
Six months ended June 30, 1999 compared with six months ended June 30, 1998
(unaudited)
Revenue
Our principal source of revenue was from the resale of telephone and data
communications. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $12,278,
after a deduction for credits of $3,200 issued to a customer, as compared with
$54,360 in the same period of the prior year. The lower revenue was principally
attributable to changing the carriers who supply us with the telecommunication
services we resell. Switching carriers, and associated third party billing
practices, from MCI/Worldcom to Frontier caused delays in converting existing
customers and in growing the customer base, thereby severely impacting reported
revenues. As a change in carriers is considered by the company as a material,
non-recurring event, it is not anticipated that such an event will likely
occur again or, if so, have the adverse impact on the financial statements
as has been reflected.
Cost of revenue
Financial Intranet's cost of revenue consists primarily of telephone
communications lines and internet access costs required to support and deliver
Financial Intranet's communications services. Cost of revenues for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 was $34,970 compared with $47,052 in the prior year.
We expect cost of revenues to increase in direct relationship to the future
revenues anticipated from increases in usage volume.
Sales and marketing expenses
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of commissions to our sales force
and promotional, advertising and public relations costs. Sales and marketing
expenses increased 234% from $27,347 in 1998 to $91,293 in 1999. Web advertising
and hosting costs, partially offset by lower commissions paid to Financial
Intranet's sales force, primarily accounted for the increase. We expect sales
and marketing expenses to increase due to the growth of the sales force as well
as the increased advertising and promotional activities.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of
o employee compensation and related expenses (including payroll taxes and
benefits) for executive, administrative and operations personnel
o licensing, legal and other professional fees
o travel and entertainment
o facility and office-related costs such as rent, insurance, maintenance
and telephone.
15
<PAGE>
These costs increased 11% from $444,037 in 1998 to $492,550 in 1999 principally
due to increased professional fees for the public offering registration.
Management expects general and administrative expenses to increase in future
periods to support the growth of the business.
Other financing-related expenses
Other financing-related expenses charged to operations consist of non-cash
costs of the issuance of common stock, warrants and stock options. These
expenses increased from $27,408 in 1998 to $267,372 in 1999.
Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization consists primarily of depreciation of computer
equipment and amortization of software development costs and debt issuance
costs. Software development costs of $5,690 were amortized in 1998. No
depreciation was taken in the first six months of 1998 because the equipment
had not yet been placed in service. The 1999 expenses for the first six months
were $135,467, which consisted of $92,736 in depreciation and $42,731 in
amortization.
Other income and expense
Other income consists principally of interest from loans, notes receivable and
short-term investments. Interest and other income increased from $1,754 for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 to $2,366 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
Interest expense consists of interest accrued on loans and convertible notes
payable. Interest expense increased from $2,217 for the six months ended June
30, 1998 to $1,236,266 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase is
attributable to the favorable conversion terms of convertible notes issued in
February 1999. (See note 12 of the financial statements.)
Income taxes
No provision for federal and state income taxes has been recorded as Financial
Intranet incurred net operating losses in the first 2 quarters of 1998 and 1999.
The net operating losses will be available to offset future taxable income.
Given Financial Intranet's limited operating history, losses incurred to date
and the difficulty in accurately forecasting Financial Intranet's future
results, management does not believe that the realization of the potential
future benefits of these carryforwards meets the criteria for recognition of a
deferred tax asset required by generally accepted accounting principles and,
accordingly, a full 100% valuation allowance has been provided.
Liquidity and capital resources
We had balances of $52,523 and $149,225 in cash and cash equivalents at June
30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively.
Financial Intranet had negative working capital of $(667,438) at December 31,
1998. Net cash used in operating activities was $453,786 for the year ended
December 31, 1998. Cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable
to a net loss of $2,141,978 partially offset by non-cash items such as
depreciation and amortization of $129,413, stock compensation costs of $897,808,
as well as positive changes in working capital. Net cash used in operating
activities for the year ended December 31, 1997 was $533,042 which was
principally due to the net loss of $817,430, partially offset by $159,290 in
consulting services paid by issuance of common stock and positive changes in
working capital.
Financial Intranet had negative working capital of $(622,396) at June 30, 1999.
Net cash used in operating activities was $607,167 for the six months ended June
30, 1999. Cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to a net
loss of $2,243,274. This was partially offset by non-cash items such as interest
expense of $1,209,000 due to favorable conversion terms, depreciation and
amortization of $135,467 and stock compensation costs of $267,372. Net cash
provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was
$166,015, which was principally due to the net loss of $497,637 being more than
offset by positive changes in working capital.
Net cash used in investing activities of $859,343 for the year ended December
31, 1998 was primarily attributable to capital expenditures of $833,128 and
capitalized software development costs of $41,551, partially offset by a $15,336
16
<PAGE>
loan repayment from an officer. Net cash used in investing activities of
$365,597 for the year ended December 31, 1997 was due to $235,712 in capital
equipment acquired, $68,275 in software development costs, $20,410 in loans
advanced to an officer and notes receivable advances of $41,200.
Net cash used for investing activities of $21,535 for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 was primarily attributable to capital expenditures. Net cash
used in investing activities of $846,609 for the six months ended June 30,
1998 was principally due to capital equipment acquired.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 1998
was $1,460,425 and consisted of proceeds from the issuance of common stock and
convertible promissory notes, less related financing costs and a $47,250
repayment of a vendor loan. Net cash provided by financing activities for the
year ended December 31, 1997 was $900,466, and consisted of proceeds from the
issuance of common stock, less related financing fees, and proceeds from a
vendor loan, which was repaid during 1998.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30,
1999 was $532,000 and consisted of proceeds from the issuance of convertible
promissory notes, less related financing costs and repayments to an officer. Net
cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1998
was $976,900, and consisted primarily of proceeds from the issuance of common
stock, less related financing fees and repayments to an officer.
We believe that the cash proceeds from the offering, together with existing
private placement arrangements, will be sufficient to meet anticipated cash
requirements because Financial Intranet does not expect to generate positive
cash flow from operations until the second quarter of the year 2000. However,
unless Financial Intranet generates significant revenue or obtains financing
through this offering or another means in the near future, Financial Intranet's
operations in the development stage raise substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was
adversely affected by the change in telecommunications carriers, which change is
in the process of being completed and is anticipated to be rectified in the next
quarter. There can be no assurance, however, that such change will be completed
in the next quarter or that additional capital beyond the amounts currently
forecasted by Financial Intranet will not be required, nor that any such
required additional capital will be available on reasonable terms, if at all, at
such time as required by Financial Intranet.
We anticipate that we can continue, in the ordinary course of business and
through additional financing transactions, whether such financings are from the
offering or another source, to provide the services that we currently offer to
existing and additional customers for the next twelve months. Further, the
proceeds of this transaction will enable us to accelerate our intended
expansion, although there can be no assurance. In addition, without all of the
proceeds of this offering or financing from another source, we will not
implement the disaster recovery program mentioned in our use of proceeds.
Financial Intranet has satisfied its cash requirements primarily through
revenue, private placements of common stock, warrants and debentures convertible
into shares of common stock, as well as the issuance of common stock in lieu of
payment for services. Also, officers have loaned Financial Intranet funds as
needed to provide working capital.
On May 20, 1998, Financial Intranet issued a 6% convertible debenture in the
principal amount of $500,000. The entire principal amount of the debenture and
all accrued interest was converted into an aggregate of 1,070,800 shares of
common stock.
On June 5, 1998, Financial Intranet issued a 12% convertible promissory note in
the principal amount of $500,000. The entire principal amount of this promissory
note and all accrued interest was converted into 1,237,666 shares of common
stock.
On December 31, 1998, Financial Intranet issued a 7% convertible promissory note
in the principal amount of $500,000 with a maturity date of December 31, 2001.
In conjunction with the issuance of the note, Financial Intranet issued warrants
to purchase 1,250,000 shares of common stock for $0.60 per share. The shares
issuable upon conversion of the promissory note and exercise of the warrant are
being registered under the registration statement of which this prospectus is a
part. There can be no assurance that the warrants will be exercised or the note
converted.
On February 8, 1999, Financial Intranet issued a 7% convertible promissory note
in the principal amount of $600,000.
17
<PAGE>
The principal amount of $240,000 was converted to common stock on March 10, 1999
and the balance of $360,000 was converted to common stock on May 14, 1999.
Financial Intranet also issued warrants to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common
stock for $0.40 per share. The investor agreed to purchase, for $1,100,000,
additional convertible promissory notes and warrants to purchase 1,833,333
shares of common stock. However, the investor is not obligated to purchase the
notes unless several conditions are met. One such condition is the registration
under the Securities Act of 1934 of the shares issuable upon conversion of the
notes and exercise of the warrants. These shares are not being registered at
this time. The promissory notes will bear interest at the rate of 7% a year.
Financial Intranet anticipates using the proceeds from the additional promissory
note for working capital. There can be no assurances that the notes will be
purchased, the warrants exercised, or the note converted.
On July 20, 1999, we issued an 8% convertible promissory note in the principal
amount of $500,000 to one accredited investor with a maturity date of October
20, 1999. In conjunction with the issuance of the note, Financial Intranet
issued warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock for $0.50 per share,
which warrants are exercisable only if we repay the note in cash. The shares
issuable upon conversion of the promissory note and exercise of the warrant are
being registered in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a
part. There can be no assurance that the warrants will be exercised or the note
converted. We are using the proceeds of the promissory note for general working
capital and repayment of past due accounts payable. Financial Intranet expects
that its obligation under this convertible promissory note will be satisfied by
conversion into common stock.
On September 27, 1999, we issued an 8% promissory note in the principal amount
of $120,000 with a maturity date of December 26, 1999. We are using the
proceeds of the note for general working capital and repayment of past due
accounts receivable.
From time to time, officers have loaned Financial Intranet funds as needed to
provide working capital. Financial Intranet issued three outstanding notes in
favor of Ben B. Stein, a shareholder, consultant and former officer and
director. The original principal amount of the notes was $60,889. Mr. Stein
agreed on March 3, 1999 to apply the outstanding principal amount of the notes
and all accrued interest to the exercise of options in lieu of a cash payment by
Financial Intranet. In September 1999, we issued a promissory note to Mr. Stein
in the principal amount of $10,000 (plus accrued interest) due on demand. We
have an outstanding note in favor of Michael Sheppard for $36,115 (plus accrued
interest) due on demand. The promissory notes bear interest at 8% a year.
Year 2000 compliance
The year 2000 compliance issue is the result of a widespread programming
technique that causes computer systems to identify a date based on the last two
numbers of a year, with the assumption that the first two numbers of the year
are "19." As a result, the year 2000 would be stored as "00," causing computers
to incorrectly interpret the year as 1900. Left uncorrected, the year 2000
problem may cause information technology systems (e.g. computer databases) and
non- information systems (e.g. elevators) to produce incorrect data or cease
operating completely.
We have received confirmation from Siemens, which installed and manages our
hardware and software systems, that they are year 2000 compliant. Financial
Intranet uses recent releases of software applications and operational programs
that are certified by the manufacturers to be year 2000 compliant. We have not
incurred material costs to become year 2000 compliant. Financial Intranet has
contingency plans to deal with unanticipated year 2000 problems including
backing up its data base and financial and accounting records.
Financial Intranet has been advised by its telecommunications providers and
providers of information services on its Website and other significant vendors
that they are year 2000 compliant and that they have contingency plans in place.
At this time, Financial Intranet fully expects to be year 2000 compliant and
believes that its providers and its significant vendors have taken, or are
taking, the steps necessary to be in compliance by the year 2000. We believe we
can quickly switch to other vendors from any who are not year 2000 compliant and
that we will not incur prolonged disruption to our business. We believe that we
could locate new vendors on the same terms as our current vendors if our current
vendors are not Year 2000 compliant. Nevertheless, uncertainties remain about
the affect on Financial Intranet of third parties
18
<PAGE>
who are not year 2000 compliant. The business of Financial Intranet could be
adversely affected should Financial Intranet or other entities with whom
Financial Intranet does business be unsuccessful in completing critical
modifications in a timely manner.

BUSINESS
Introduction
Financial Intranet, Inc. is an emerging New York based media and communications
company which delivers services to the investment community. Financial
Intranet's initial objectives are to obtain a share of the telephony resale
market by offering value-added services to broker/dealers and financial advisors
and providing mutual funds and other investment managers with a cost-efficient
method for distributing information about their products.
To accomplish these goals, Financial Intranet and its technology partners have
developed a secure intranet capable of delivering high quality narrow-band
video-on-demand. We currently resell telecommunications services to
broker/dealers. Broker/dealers and financial advisors who are subscribers of
Financial Intranet can now use the same communications lines for the
transmission of voice, video and text data and receive immmediate access to
information about mutual funds. Mutual funds and futures traders can use
our intranet to provide product information to broker/dealers using interactive
video teleconferencing, video-on-demand, digitally stored text and graphics.
Mutual funds and investment managers can use the private intranet to distribute
their documentation to broker/dealers and financial advisors. We believe that
the mutual funds and futures dealers can distribute their documentation via our
intranet at lower cost than printing and physically distributing the same
materials. Financial Intranet intends to offer its network to deliver continuing
education courses on series and ethics material to broker/dealers on an ongoing
basis.
We maintain a web site at www.fntn.com for individual investors. Our web site
also offers financial information to individuals. These individuals provide
historical information about their investment practices which we collect and
analyze. If the individuals consent, we provide this information to
broker/dealers who specialize in the sectors in which the individual expressed
an interest. These broker/dealers are subscribers to our communications
services. We will use the generation of leads as a marketing tool to sell
communication services to broker/dealers. Revenues will be generated both by the
resale of telecommunications services bundled with value-added services to
subscribing broker/dealers and from fees from mutual funds for the use of
Financial Intranet's network and access to its subscribers.
We have a strategic relationship with Siemens Nixdorf Informationssysteme
Ges.m.b.H. Siemens has installed and manages our integrated hardware and
software system. The technology underlying Financial Intranet's high-speed
intranet, video-on-demand service and data mining capability was developed by
Financial Intranet in association with Siemens based on Siemens' proprietary
technology. Financial Intranet has signed agreements creating a strategic
alliance with a number of Siemens companies.
History of Financial Intranet
Financial Intranet was incorporated in 1993 as Alexis and Co. in the State of
Nevada. We changed our name to Wee Wees Inc. and subsequently, on December 17,
1996 to Financial Intranet, Inc. after the purchase of a controlling interest by
Barry Stein. Prior to that date, Financial Intranet had not conducted any
business.
We received our reseller certificate from the Federal Communication Commission
in 1997 to provide international telecommunications services originating in the
United States. Upon the effective date of a tariff in 1997, Financial Intranet
also became authorized to provide domestic interstate telecommunications
services in accordance with its
19
<PAGE>
tariffs. Financial Intranet is also authorized to offer intrastate telephone
services in New York, Texas, California, Florida, New Jersey, Connecticut and
Colorado. We offer interstate and intrastate long distance service at this time.
In June 1997, Financial Intranet entered into an agreement with MCI/WorldCom to
resell communications services to end users. Financial Intranet entered into our
first contracts with Siemens in July 1997 to provide hardware and assist in
developing technology for its intranet. In October 1997, Financial Intranet
began providing communications services to broker/dealers. In April 1999, we
signed an agreement with Frontier Communications to resell communication
services to end users. Financial Intranet derived its 1998 revenues from the
resale of communications services to approximately 20 broker/dealers.
We launched our web site in July 1998. Financial Intranet began delivering
video-on-demand on our web site in 1998. We began using data mining software to
take the information gathered on the website and generate live customer leads
for broker/dealers in 1998. We added chat rooms and message boards in January
1999.
An investor can invest $1,100,000 over the next 10 months under the terms of a
private placement in February 1999. We will use the proceeds from such
investor to expand our operations. The proceeds of this offering will be used
to accelerate the expansion of services that we currently offer.
Markets
Financial Intranet targets three groups in the investment industry:
Mutual funds and other providers of investment products
Mutual funds need to deliver product information and increase their exposure to
potential investors. Approximately 7,000 mutual funds were being offered to
investors according to a Reuters article entitled "More Mutual Funds Turning to
Outside Management" dated April 23, 1999. If a broker/dealer is to market a
fund's products, that fund must provide it with sales information, including a
current prospectus. The broker/dealer and its registered representatives must
review the prospectus and the fund's rate of return history and sign a selling
agreement with the fund before they can solicit or offer the product to the
public. Moreover, funds may desire to provide this information in a compelling
manner to attract the interest of broker/dealers and their registered
representatives and distinguish the fund from its competitors.
Historically, mutual funds provide information to broker/dealers and their
registered representatives by mass mailings of printed material, such as
prospectuses, sales aids and charts. Funds also utilize wholesalers to introduce
the mutual funds to broker/dealers. According to the July 1996 issue of Research
Magazine Online, approximately 5,000 wholesalers sold mutual funds in 1996. Fund
managers have advised us in interviews that reaching a large group of
broker/dealers and their registered representatives and distributing
documentation is expensive and can be a particular burden for smaller funds
without large marketing budgets. Fund managers said they needed a more effective
and economic way to inform a wider range of broker/dealers to increase the
percentage of closed sales to prospective investors.
We offer an alternative to using mailings and wholesalers. Using our high speed
secure intranet, a fund can distribute to our subscribers
o plain text,
o graphics,
o digitally stored documents such as prospectuses, and
o video content.
Financial Intranet believes this method of distribution will appeal to
broker/dealers and their registered representatives who will have immediate
access to fund information without having to leave their trading screen. A
broker can listen to audio or view a video or digitally stored document in a
window while still following real-time trading information. The advantage to the
broker is more information available at his convenience in his office and more
product to sell in a user-friendly format.
20
<PAGE>
We target various providers of investment products. Financial Intranet offers
services to
o mutual funds,
o insurance companies,
o commodity trading advisors,
o commodity pool operators,
o banks, and
o other investment product creators.
Mutual funds can use a variety of our services.
The network allows mutual funds to
o deliver pre-recorded information on their products and educational
video content. We deliver the service using our point to point
video-on-demand capability . We are producing content. Funds from
this offering will enable us to broaden this service by allowing us
to develop more content.
o deliver interactive training and support. We deliver the service
through point to multi-point live video teleconferencing. Mutual
funds can answer questions about the features of their products. We
offer this feature on a trial basis. The rate at which we increase
its availability depends on the availability of funds.
o distribute sales material. Simple text, graphics or digitally
stored documents can be viewed on screen or printed by the
recipient. Financial Intranet is currently digitalizing documents,
provided by our customers for transmission over the network. The
proceeds of this offering will enable us to more rapidly expand our
ability to digitalize documents for distribution.
Three mutual funds use our network to advertise their products.
Financial Intranet is working with these funds to develop the materials which
can be disseminated. Financial Intranet expects that as more broker/dealers
purchase its communication services and participate on its intranet, mutual
funds and other investment managers will pay Financial Intranet to distribute
information about their products.
Broker/dealers and financial advisors
Selling communications services to broker/dealers will be a significant portion
of our business. Telecommunications represent one of the largest recurring
expenses to broker/dealers and financial advisors. There were 5,553 NASD member
firms and 309 New York Stock Exchange member firms doing a public business in
1996 according to the Nasdaq stock market company directory, 1997 edition. The
NYSE member firms spent approximately $3,100,000,000 on communications in 1996,
a 50% increase from 1985.
Financial Intranet provides discount, long-distance telephony to subscribers. We
plan to enter the local resale market. Financial Intranet's reseller agreement
with Frontier Corp. allows it to utilize Frontier's communication
infrastructures while incurring little up-front installation and maintenance
costs. We believe that one appeal of our service is its ability to utilize any
channel in our network for the transmission of voice, video, text and digitally
stored documents as and when needed.
Value-added services at no additional cost are intended to make our
communications services more attractive. Financial Intranet provides
broker/dealers and financial advisors value-added services in addition to the
technical enhancements to basic communication services. We generate live
consumer leads. Financial Intranet developed a web site accessible to
individuals. Individuals may "register" by completing a questionnaire and
consenting to specified limited use of the information. In exchange for
registration, the individual may receive a reward and access to the other
features on our web site. We currently provide a 20 minute pre-paid phone card
as a reward. Financial Intranet keeps track of the products in which each
visitor to its web site shows an interest. The information gathered from each
investor is analyzed using our data mining technology, and the name and profile
of a consenting individual is given to one broker/dealer or financial advisor
operating in that person's geographical area or area of interest. The
broker/dealer or financial advisor benefits from the possible sale of products
and the opportunity to develop a relationship with the
21
<PAGE>
individual.
We reviewed the first 500 questionnaires completed at our web site. Of
the individuals responding:
o 95% claim to do a substantial amount of research regarding
investment opportunities;
o 92% have a brokerage account;
o approximately 50% execute trades through their broker;
o 87% trade at least once a month, the majority trading either
weekly or monthly;
o 67% earn over $50,000 per year; 20% earn over $100,000 per year;
o 90% reside in the United States; 8% reside in Europe; 2% reside
elsewhere.
Financial Intranet believes that many of these individuals are potential
customers for our subscribing broker/dealers and financial advisors based on the
response to the questionnaires. Financial Intranet can also assist
broker/dealers by using the network to provide the various sales application
forms on-line to the registered representatives.
Broker/dealers and financial advisors are currently offered two levels of
access, informational access and interactive access. Interactive access allows
broker/dealers and financial advisors to schedule video conferences. Information
access provides video-on-demand and news. Delayed quotes on securities prices
are available for no additional charge on our web site. We recognize that
broker/dealers require real time quotes. Real time quotes and financial data are
available through Financial Intranet's co-marketing agreement with S&P Comstock
for an additional charge. We could provide real time quotes directly if we
construct a second data center with the proceeds of a maximum offering. The
second data center will afford us sufficient redundancy in our hardware to
improve our reliability if our primary data center sustains a disruption.
Financial Intranet also offers links to broker/dealer web sites.
We have begun to offer broker/dealers and financial advisors training on mutual
funds and other investment products using video-on-demand, plain text and
digitally-stored documents which can be viewed or read at the recipient's
location. The information can be updated as needed by the provider of the
product. Financial Intranet's network now has the capability to offer
video-on-demand but its growth is limited by a lack of content. We are
developing content for the video on demand. The development of content can be
accelerated with the receipt of additional funding from this offering. Training
will also be available through point to multi-point (e.g. mutual fund to
broker/dealers) through live interactive video teleconferencing. This live
interchange allows broker/dealers to ask questions about the fund or other
product.
Financial Intranet expects that brokerage firms will utilize its network to help
them fulfill their continuing education requirement for the NASD. Financial
Intranet intends to offer broker/dealers the ability to obtain education and
training materials for examinations administered by the NASD through the
presentation of courses via video-on-demand at the broker/dealer's trading
terminal or personal computer. We do not expect to offer this service unless we
complete the maximum offering or obtain financing from another source.
Individual investors
Individual investors have access to Financial Intranet's web site. The web site
offers
o free real-time quotes on securities prices,
o advanced, customizable charting,
o portfolio management,
o video-on-demand library,
o a searchable mutual fund database,
o "chat rooms,"
o message boards, and
22
<PAGE>
o a real time searchable news data base .
o links to EDGAR
The number of "hits" per day on Financial Intranet's web site increased from
approximately 13,000 to 85,000 since we began the chat rooms in January 1999.
We make the names of consenting registrants available to broker/dealers. During
registration, we ask each individual for permission to forward his/her name to a
broker/dealer or financial advisor. The registrant is also asked to acknowledge
that the material presented at the web site is derived from outside sources and
Financial Intranet is not responsible for its content. Despite such disclaimer,
we may be subject to claims related to the content on our web site. Third
parties who desire to provide us with content must also agree to indemnify us
against claims related to such content.
We do not expect the web site to be a direct source of substantial income.
Individual investors do not pay to access or register at Financial Intranet's
web site. Financial Intranet is offering some fee based services and products
such as books and investment newsletters on stocks and investors and mutual
funds which may become an ancillary source of revenue.
Marketing and sales
We believe that increasing our marketing will best facilitate our growth because
we currently offer most of the services described in this prospectus. We employ
2 full time salespeople and 2 consultants to assist our President and Executive
Vice President in marketing our products. We also advertise our products and
services on the internet and attend trade shows. If we receive no proceeds from
this offering, we will add salespeople and expand our advertising. We will use
90% of the proceeds of this offering for marketing if gross proceeds from this
offering are $1,000,000 or less. We will spend approximately $1,600,000 from the
proceeds of a maximum offering on marketing and sales.
Products and services
Resale of long distance and local communication services
Resellers are among the fastest growing segment of the telecommunications
industry. Resellers grew at an annual rate of 16% between 1994 and 1996 while
the total long distance market is growing at approximately 6% per year according
to the Telecommunications Resellers Association, a trade association. Resellers
represented approximately 19% (or $13,000,000,000) of the $68,000,000,000 total
retail long distance market in 1996. The trade association stated on its web
site in January 1999 that 800 telecommunications resellers operate in the United
States. The trade association reported that while resellers have historically
engaged only in the resale of long distance communications, they are now adding
other services such as local resale, pagers, travel cards and PCS
phones/cellular phones. Financial Intranet believes that its value-added
services provide an advantage over other resellers.
A key element of Financial Intranet's services to the investment community is
the resale of discount, long distance telephony and other communication services
to broker/dealers and financial advisors. Voice, video-on-demand services, text,
and digitally-stored documents share the same network connection to each
customer's office. Financial Intranet has a reseller agreement with Frontier
Corp. Our agreement with Frontier expires in April 2001. Financial Intranet can
also enter into such agreements with other carriers who may be more competitive
in specific geographical areas or with respect to specific services. Resale of
communication services has been the principal source of revenue to date and is
expected to be one of our major revenue producing products during the initial
years of operation.
Financial Intranet is permitted to provide interstate and international long
distance service. Financial Intranet tariffed in New York, Florida, Connecticut,
Texas and California to provide intrastate toll telecommunications services and
in anticipation of entering the local resale business. We are registered in New
Jersey and Colorado where no tariffs are required. We have tariffs pending in
Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Maryland. We are permitted to
offer intrastate toll telecommunications services in four other states without
filing a tariff by either filing a registration or commencing operations. None
of these authorizations include the authority to provide Financial Intranet's
23
<PAGE>
telecommunications services on a local exchange, non-toll basis for which
separate applications and/or tariff filings are required.
We intend to engage in development of a voice-over internet protocol. This
feature will enable us to facilitate the transmission of voice and other
communications over the Internet. We do not anticipate devoting significant
proceeds from this offering to development as this technology is available
through Siemens.
Video-on-demand training and marketing
Financial Intranet now offers video conferencing and video-on-demand services to
provide flexible distance learning opportunities. These services permit
customers to conduct live training or informational sessions via
teleconferencing and to access pre-recorded materials through video-on-demand.
We can provide video-on-demand training and marketing applications. These
applications use stored video content, and are available on demand to Financial
Intranet's customers via its private intranet and to individual investors at its
web site. For broker/dealers, this content will include materials regarding
various investment products. Financial Intranet and mutual funds are jointly
developing materials related to their products. We are also developing our own
content. The content can range from videotapes of teleconferencing sessions to
customized materials with data, video and text.
Content is delivered at different speeds depending on its destination.
Broker/dealers receive video and detailed sales fulfillment material at high
speed and have direct contact with mutual funds. Financial Intranet's video
image occupies one quarter of the screen of the desktop computer and does not
interfere with access to real time financial data. Individuals have access to
more general information and can access stored video and digitally-stored
documents , including prospectuses. The digitally-stored documents are delivered
at the transmission speed available to them.
Video conferencing
Financial Intranet has begun testing point to point and point to multi-point
video conferencing to facilitate both marketing and training. A client, such as
a mutual fund, can now schedule a point to multi-point live video conference.
Scheduling information is accessible to the client on Financial Intranet's
private intranet. Financial Intranet's intranet can transmit full screen
downstream video (originator to viewer) at 30 frames per second. The upstream
video (viewers to originator) is delivered at 5 frames per second, a sufficient
quality for the originator to be able to identify who is asking a question.
We provide video conferencing hardware to clients. We currently lease or
purchase the required equipment. Our ability to expand this service is
constrained by our lack of equipment. We lease or purchase additional equipment
on an as needed basis as we secure additional demand for our service. We believe
that purchasing equipment with the proceeds of this offering will enable us to
have an inventory of equipment and obtain equipment on better terms than
continuing to purchase equipment on an as needed basis. We intend to use a
portion of the proceeds of this offering to purchase additional equipment, if we
receive proceeds of $1,000,000 or more.
Financial Intranet intends to use a portion of the proceeds of this offering to
develop a system for delivering continuing education training to broker/dealers
to meet NASD requirements. This system will track the progress of a
broker/dealer's registered representatives and provide courses appropriate to
their requirements and skill levels. We do not anticipate developing this system
unless we complete a maximum offering or obtain financing from another source.
Individual investor web site
Financial Intranet recruits prospective investors as leads for the
broker/dealers, financial advisors and mutual funds, who subscribe to our
communications services. The web site is a mechanism to deliver multimedia
information and education to individual investors while capturing information
about those investors. A continuous background feature is the provision of
24
<PAGE>
o free real-time stock quotes,
o links to EDGAR
o exchange information,
o newsletters,
o chat rooms,
o market news,
o information about mutual funds and other markets, and
o message boards.
Data mining technology
We track the activities of our broker/dealer subscribers and the visitors to our
web site. We obtain information provided by investors who register. We maintain
information about specific materials downloaded by broker/dealers and registered
investors and subsequent actions relating to the information received.
Financial Intranet uses this data to provide customer leads, surveys and reports
based on criteria provided by its broker/dealer and financial advisor customers
through the use of its proprietary data mining system. Financial Intranet
believes its ability to convert the data it gathers into practical knowledge
gives Financial Intranet an advantage over its competitors in the communication
service resale industry. Financial Intranet does not, however, attempt to
determine the suitability of investors for particular investments.. That
qualification remains the responsibility of the broker/dealer.
Expansion
We have concentrated on the investment industry. Financial Intranet believes
this industry will benefit most from our information and communications services
and that the investment industry presents the most immediate opportunity for
revenue. Financial Intranet hopes that as it becomes established as a provider
of financial services information, we will capture a larger portion of the long
distance resale business.
We plan to expand our intranet services to other industries and associations. We
are examining expansion into pharmaceutical and health products, real estate,
insurance and entertainment industries. We believe these industries can benefit
from our telecommunications products and from participating in an
industry-centered intranet. We intend to focus on industries which rely on
distributors of their products and services or need to train geographically
dispersed sales people.
Financial Intranet intends to expand from the eastern United States throughout
the United States and possibly Europe and the Pacific Rim. Overseas expansion
may entail adding data centers or implement collocation agreements to service
those markets and provide Financial Intranet with a redundant data source. We
will not be able to add additional data centers unless we complete a maximum
offering or obtain financing from another source. We are unlikely to attempt to
expand to reach customers based overseas within the next 12 months unless we
complete a maximum offering.
We may also expand through the acquisition of companies that provide
complementary services. We are considering an acquisition of a company that
sells communications services. Discussions regarding the potential acquisition
are in the preliminary stage and no terms have been agreed upon. The
contemplated acquisition is not probable at this time. Any acquisition that
requires payment of a cash purchase price will likely require financing in
addition to the proceeds of this offering. Other issues to be resolved in an
acquisition include the assimilation of the operations, management and
25
<PAGE>
products of the acquired companies. We can't be sure that we will complete
any acquisitions.
Technology and business partners
Financial Intranet's overall delivery system has three parts:
o The data center in Ardsley, NY, houses Financial Intranet's
video library and video processing software and its data warehouse
and data mining capability.
o The link between Financial Intranet and its customers. This
includes private lines from UUNet, an MCI WorldCom company, and
the "last miles" on either end connecting the leased lines to
Financial Intranet and each of its customers. This link creates a
virtual private network.
o The services gateway which resides at each customer's office.
We have a strategic alliance with Siemens Nixdorf Informationssysteme Ges.m.b.H.
and several of its subsidiaries, most significantly Siemens Information and
Communication Products LLC and Siemens Telecom Network. Steven Weller, a member
of the Board of directors of Financial Intranet, is the Vice President of Sales
for the Computer Systems division of Siemens Information and Communication
Products LLC.
The Siemens companies installed a fully integrated system including hardware and
software in Financial Intranet's data center. They provided full documentation
and trained our internal technical team. Siemens provides full time remote
management of Financial Intranet's system for a twelve month period beginning
February 1, 1999 under a management agreement. Our cost is $105,000 for the
year. Financial Intranet anticipates renewing the management agreement after one
year. Financial Intranet believes at least three full-time employees would be
required to perform these services in-house without the management agreement.
Siemens also licensed its proprietary data mining technology to Financial
Intranet for a one-time single site fee.
Competition
Financial Intranet does not believe any other company offers the same array of
services as us although a number of companies compete with Financial Intranet in
specific areas.
Telecommunications carriers and resellers
Financial Intranet's communications resale services compete with:
o other resellers,
o local exchange carriers,
o local phone carriers,
o regional Bell operating companies, and
o long distance carriers.
Some competitors offer a wider range of communications services than Financial
Intranet. Some have significantly greater assets. Financial Intranet believes it
has an advantage over other resellers because of our value-added-services.
Mutual fund information services for financial sales professionals
Financial Intranet believes it has no direct competition providing mutual fund
information to financial services professionals such as broker/dealers and
financial planners. The large brokerage houses have long had internal systems
for the redistribution of mutual fund data to their employees. These systems use
data replication to replace paper distribution of mutual fund sales and
marketing materials to in-house brokers.
Financial Intranet's most direct competitor as an outside electronic
redistributor of fund sales and marketing materials is
26
<PAGE>
First Data Investor Services Group, developer of BROKERCONNECT. Financial
Intranet believes it has a significant advantage over BROKERCONNECT. We deliver
the same electronic text redistribution services but add video-on- demand
content provided by the fund and as interactive video training and the prospect
of receiving customer leads.
Real time data redistribution
Brokerage firms purchase trading desks equipped with terminals and real-time
data feeds for their registered representatives. Many companies provide
real-time data feeds, including PC Quote, Quotron and S&P Comstock. Through our
co-marketing agreement with S&P Comstock, Financial Intranet believes it can
deliver S&P terminals and data feeds to broker/dealers at a competitive price.
Financial Intranet does not see data feeds as a significant independent revenue
source. Data feeds primarily provide value enhancement to attract brokers to
purchase Financial Intranet's communication services.
Government regulation
Communications regulation
Financial Intranet and its underlying carriers who provide the network
facilities and services we resell are regulated at the federal level by the FCC
and, with limited exceptions, at the state level by public service, public
utility or state corporation commissions.
Financial Intranet and all other "non-dominant" carriers (telecommunications
service providers) are authorized to provide interstate telecommunication
services under a general policy decision adopted by the FCC as opposed to any
company specific authorization. We need not periodically renew our status. In
mid-1997, Financial Intranet was granted its certificate of public convenience
and necessity under Section 214 of the Communications Act of 1934. This
certificate authorizes us to provide international services, that is,
communications originated by customers in the United States and its possessions
and terminating in foreign countries. Financial Intranet's certificate has no
expiration date and is not subject to periodic renewal requirements.
Financial Intranet filed tariffs with the FCC after obtaining certificates under
Section 214. FCC regulations require that Financial Intranet, like all carriers,
file and maintain separate tariffs for its interstate and international service
offerings. Tariffs contain the terms, conditions and rate for each
telecommunications service offered or provided by Financial Intranet. Tariffs
are not approved by the FCC, but may be reviewed by the FCC on its own motion or
as a result of a complaint by a customer, a non-customer member of the public or
a competing communications company. Tariffs are strictly construed and any
ambiguity in the tariff is construed in favor of the public (customer) and
against the carrier. Financial Intranet has the right to file revisions to its
tariff and change any rate, term or condition at any time, except that any term,
condition or rate once filed must remain, by FCC rule, effective for a minimum
of 30 days. The FCC may not interfere with or reject any filed tariff rate, term
or condition without specific findings that such rate, term or condition is
unjust, unreasonable or unduly discriminatory.
The FCC assumes that all non-dominant carriers' rates are reasonable and
non-discriminatory. Any new or revised rate may be filed on only one day's prior
notice. The FCC does not review specific tariff filings unless someone protests
or it learns of some issue of lawfulness. Should issues be raised against any
tariff filing, the FCC must find that the tariff or tariff provision is
"patently unlawful," that is, contrary on its face to some law, rule,
regulation, policy or pre-existing decision of the courts or FCC. Where patent
unlawfulness is not shown, the FCC may suspend a tariff filing's effectiveness
for no more than 120 days, request that a carrier voluntarily "defer" the
effective date or investigate the tariff after the suspension is over.
Financial Intranet is also tariffed in New York, California, Florida,
Connecticut and Texas which allows it to provide intrastate toll communications
services. It is registered in New Jersey and Colorado (no tariffs being
required) and has tariffs pending in Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts,
Pennsylvania and Maryland, and is legally permitted to offer intrastate toll
telecommunications services in four other states without filing a tariff by
either filing a registration or commencing operations. None of these
authorizations include the authority to provide Financial Intranet's
telecommunications services on a local exchange, non-toll basis for which
separate applications and/or tariff filings are required.
27
<PAGE>
Should operations be expanded to countries other than the United States,
Financial Intranet will be required to comply with the laws and regulations
applicable to that country's telecommunications industry. In Western Europe, the
telecommunications industry is also subject to the actions, policies and
regulations of the European Commission. Beginning January 1, 1998, regulation of
telecommunications in Western Europe was formally liberalized to increase
competition in telecommunications. The timing and degree of liberalization
however varies, sometimes widely, country by country, and some countries like
Portugal and Greece have delayed implementation of new regulations.
Since few laws or regulations are directly applicable to access or commerce on
the internet, our internet and intranet is not subject to direct government
regulation, other than regulations applicable to businesses generally. However,
a number of legislative and regulatory proposals are under consideration by
federal, state, local and foreign governmental organizations and, as a result, a
number of laws or regulations may be adopted with respect to internet user
privacy, taxation, infringement, pricing, quality of products and services and
intellectual property ownership.
Securities regulation
Financial Intranet's customers are subject to various federal and state laws and
regulations of self-regulatory agencies such as the NASD, regarding the sale of
securities and continuing education. Changes in these laws and regulations may
affect Financial Intranet's business. While Financial Intranet's web site states
that Financial Intranet is not responsible for the information presented,
Financial Intranet will make reasonable efforts to assure that its services are
not misused.
We do not intend to engage in activities which would require registration as a
broker\dealer. The leads are provided to our subscribers without charge, as a
value added service for their purchase of communications services. The
subscriber has the responsibility to approve the lead as a client, have the
client complete any new account forms or other documents regarding an investment
and determine the suitability of any investments for the client. We do not
receive commissions from any business that may be generated by the new client.
Intellectual property
We regard the technology we use as proprietary, but have no existing or pending
patent or copyright protection. We rely on the following to protect our software
and other propriety technology:
o confidentiality and license agreements with third parties,
o trade secret and trademark laws, and
o common law copyright.
Suppliers
Financial Intranet's principal supplier for the resale of communication services
is Frontier Corp. We use third party production companies to produce video on
terms negotiated with respect to each project. Financial Intranet uses computer
hardware and software and related services provided by Siemens Nixdorf
Informationssysteme Ges.m.b.H. and several of its subsidiaries. Although we
believe our supplier relationships are good, we believe that alternate suppliers
of telephony, computer hardware, software and servicing are available at
competitive prices. Regulatory and other changes in the industry have lowered
network costs. We believe we will obtain agreements from suppliers of
communications services which will permit the contained resale of services at
acceptable margins. Financial Intranet could experience a disruption in its
business if it needed to replace the Siemens companies without sufficient
notice.
Disaster recovery system
Implementation of a second data center from the proceeds of a maximum offering
will facilitate both expansion overseas and implementation of a more thorough
disaster recovery program. Our current data center already provides some
redundancy and protection against a disruption in our computer systems. We
believe that all but the most severe problems can be corrected quickly and
without much disruption to our business. Our data center has four clustered
servers. Video transmissions can be transferred to another server within hours
if an existing server malfunctions. A defective motherboard can be replaced in
one or two days. Our software is backed up each day. We also purchase
28
<PAGE>
telecommunications services from a reliable major company, Frontier. A second
data center would eliminate the delay that could result from a total system
failure. We anticipate that the second data center would be implemented by
leasing space and equipment at an existing Siemens data center. Currently, a
total system failure could disrupt operations for up to two weeks until we
secured connections to the Siemens data center in Toronto. We also carry
business disruption insurance.
Facilities
Financial Intranet's principal offices are located at 410 Saw Mill River Road,
Ardsley, New York. Such offices are located on two floors leased by Financial
Intranet under two leases. A lease for 909 square feet at an annual rent of
$18,675 terminates on December 31, 2000. A lease for 700 square feet for annual
rent of $15,575 terminates on December 31, 2000. Financial Intranet believes
that the offices are sufficient for its current operations and proposed
operations through the term of the lease.
Employees
Financial Intranet has five full-time employees and one part-time employee.
Three full-time employees are officers. We have five part-time outside
consultants. None of the employees are represented by a collective bargaining
agreement and management believes it has good relations with its employees.
Legal proceedings
On or about July 23, 1998, H & H Acquisition Corporation, individually and
purportedly on behalf of Financial Intranet, commenced an action in United
States District Court, Southern District of New York entitled H & H Acquisition
Corp., individually and on behalf of Financial Intranet, Inc. v. Financial
Intranet Holdings, Financial Intranet, Inc., Ben Stein, Interwest Transfer Co.,
Steven A. Sanders, Michael Sheppard, Maura Marx, Henry A. Schwartz, Leonard
Gotshalk, Gotshalk Enterprises, Law Office of Steven A. Sanders, P.C. and
Beckman, Millman & Sanders, LLP, 98 Civ. 5269. The action's principal basis
appears to be plaintiff's claim that Ben Stein wrongfully claims ownership of
shares of common stock that Stein agreed to purchase from plaintiff. According
to plaintiff, these shares belong to plaintiff. The plaintiff asserts sixteen
causes of action. Only some make allegations against Financial Intranet, Michael
Sheppard and Maura Marx. The plaintiff alleges:
o Mr. Sheppard and Ms. Marx assisted defendants Stein and Financial
Intranet Holdings (a company owned by Stein) in converting stock
which plaintiff allegedly owns. Plaintiff seeks damages allegedly
sustained because of the alleged conversion.
o Mr. Sheppard and Ms. Marx assisted in defrauding plaintiff with
respect to the stock plaintiff claims. Plaintiff seeks damages
allegedly sustained because of the alleged fraud.
o Plaintiff alleges in a derivative claim, purportedly on behalf of
Financial Intranet: that Mr. Sheppard and Ms. Marx permitted
issuance of shares to defendant Gotshalk without proper
consideration and at a price lower than that offered to a company
introduced by Plaintiff; that they refused to allow plaintiff to
purchase additional shares; that Mr. Sheppard and Ms. Marx
permitted Financial Intranet to pay defendant Schwartz monies
which should not have been paid, and authorized issuance of stock
to Schwartz without proper authority; and that Mr. Sheppard and
Ms. Marx caused the issuance of stock to themselves without proper
authority. Plaintiff seeks damages allegedly sustained for these
alleged wrongful acts.
o A derivative claim purportedly on behalf of Financial Intranet
seeking an order directing the holding of a shareholders meeting
and rescission of actions determined to be improper by the Court
or its designee. A shareholders meeting was held in December 1998.
o Financial Intranet and its former transfer agent wrongfully
transferred shares belonging to plaintiff to a third party. The
transfer agent has asserted a claim against us seeking
indemnification for any liabilities incurred by the transfer agent
in this action.
29
<PAGE>
o Plaintiff is entitled to $2500.00, plus interest, from us for
alleged breach of contract. Financial Intranet settled this
cause of action.
Plaintiff also seeks an accounting from Mr. Sheppard and Ms. Marx, among other
defendants, for damages Financial Intranet allegedly suffered.
Financial Intranet, Mr. Sheppard and Ms. Marx believe that the claims against
it, Mr. Sheppard and Ms. Marx are without merit and are vigorously defending the
action. Financial Intranet, Mr. Sheppard and Ms. Marx have filed responses to
the claims against them. The responses deny all material allegations of the
complaint and the claim asserted by the transfer agent, and assert a variety of
defenses. Discovery is in its early stages. We cannot make any assurances about
the litigation's outcome. If the plaintiff prevails against us, we could be
adversely affected.

Michael Sheppard--President, Chief Operating Officer and Director
Mr. Sheppard joined Financial Intranet as a consultant in February 1997 and
became President, Chief Operating Officer and Director in April 1997. Mr.
Sheppard has been involved in setting up the corporate infrastructure of several
early stage development companies and undertaking their day-to-day operations as
chief executive and chief operating officer. From January 1996 through January
1997, Mr. Sheppard was Chief Operating Officer of Freelinq Communications,
formerly Televideo Corporation, based in New York City. Freelinq offers real
time video-on-demand via ATM/XDSL technology with high-speed internet
transmission and advertiser supported free theatrical films delivered through
twisted pair telephone lines. From 1995 to 1996 he was chief operating officer
for Lee Communications Ltd., which is a laser development and transmission

Intranet receive compensation of $350 and reimbursement of expenses for
attendance at each meeting of the board of directors. Mr. Weller has received

exercise price of $.725 per share, which options are exercisable through August

Committees of the board
The board of directors has one committee, the stock option committee. The stock
option committee administers the stock option plan and authorizes the award of
stock options by Financial Intranet. Messrs. Sheppard, Weller and Engleberger
are the members of the stock option committee.
Indemnification of directors and officers and related matters
The by-laws of Financial Intranet provide that, to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law, as amended from time to time, Financial Intranet will
indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to an action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was director,
officer, employee or agent of Financial Intranet or serves or served any other
enterprise at the request of Financial Intranet.
Financial Intranet maintains directors' and officers' insurance insuring the
directors against any liability arising out of the director's status as a
director of Financial Intranet regardless of whether Financial Intranet has the
power to indemnify the director against such liability under applicable law.
Financial Intranet has been advised that it is the position of the SEC that
insofar as the foregoing provisions may be invoked to disclaim liability for
damages arising under the Securities Act, such provisions are against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and are unenforceable.
Stock option plans
Financial Intranet has established the 1998 Stock Option Plan which provides for
the granting of options which are intended to qualify either as incentive stock
options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code or as
options which are not intended to meet the requirements of such section. The
total number of shares of Common stock reserved for issuance under the plan is
1,500,000. Options to purchase shares may be granted under the plan to persons
who, in the case of incentive stock options, are key employees (including
officers) or, in the case of non-
34
<PAGE>
statutory stock options, are key employees (including officers) or non-employee
directors or non-employee consultants.
The plan will be administered by the board of directors or a committee chosen by
the board of directors, which will have some discretionary authority to
determine the number of shares to be issued under incentive stock options and
nonstatutory stock options and the recipients, and when and at what exercise
price the options will be granted. On November 13, 1998, Financial Intranet
appointed Steven S. Weller, Michael Sheppard and Joseph F. Engelberger to
constitute the stock option committee to administer the plan.
The exercise price of all incentive stock options granted under the plan must be
at least equal to the fair market value of such shares on the date of the grant
or, in the case of incentive stock options granted to the holder of more than
10% of Financial Intranet's common stock, at least 110% of the fair market value
of such shares on the date of the grant. The maximum exercise period for which
incentive stock options may be granted is ten years from the date of grant (five
years in the case of an individual owning more than 10% of Financial Intranet's
common stock). The aggregate fair market value (determined at the date of the
option grant) of shares with respect to which incentive stock options are
exercisable for the first time by the holder of the option during any calendar
year shall not exceed $100,000.
The exercise price of all non-statutory stock options granted under the plan
must be at least equal to the 85% of the fair market value of such shares on the
date of the grant
As of today, no options have been granted under the plan.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS
In addition to the 10,909,091 shares being offered by Financial Intranet, the
registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, also covers the
registration on behalf of the selling securityholders of an aggregate of:
o 3,485,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of
warrants,
o 2,250,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the
convertible promissory notes owned by the selling security holders
in the aggregate principal amount of $2,100,000,
o 1,575,000 shares of common stock previously issued
The number of shares of common stock which may be issued to the selling
securityholders could increase under market price protection provisions that
could lower the conversion prices of the convertible promissory notes. These
additional shares of common stock may be sold by the selling securityholders
under the alternative prospectus. Financial Intranet may receive proceeds if the
warrants are subsequently exercised, as to which there can be no assurance. The
costs of qualifying these shares of common stock under federal and state
securities laws, together with legal and accounting fees, printing and other
costs in connection with this offering, will be paid by Financial Intranet.
The following list identifies the selling securityholders and the number of
shares of common stock owned by such selling securityholder along with shares
available upon the exercise of the respective options, warrants, or conversion
rights which are being registered under the registration statement, of which
this prospectus forms a part.
The list assumes exercise of warrants and conversion of all promissory notes
issued to each of the selling securityholders. The convertible promissory notes
and warrants prohibit Messrs. Sharbatly and Kazi and their affiliates from
beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the and outstanding common stock at any
time. They cannot convert the promissory notes or exercise the warrants to the
extent that such conversion or exercise will result in the selling
securityholder exceeding such limitation.

Plan of distribution
The shares offered by the selling securityholders may be sold from time to time
directly by the selling securityholders. Alternatively, the selling
securityholders may, from time to time, offer such securities through
underwriters, dealers and/or agents. The distribution of securities by the
selling securityholders may be effected in one or more transactions. Some or all
of these transactions may be privately-negotiated transactions. Others may be
through sales to one or more broker/dealers who would resell the securities as
principals, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related
to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The selling
securityholders may pay brokerage, possibly usual and customary or possibly
specifically negotiated, fees or commissions in connection with such sales. The
selling securityholders, and intermediaries through whom such securities are
sold, may be deemed "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act with
respect to the securities offered. Any profits realized or commissions received
by "underwriters" may be deemed underwriting compensation.
At the time a particular offer of securities is made by or on behalf of the
selling securityholders, a prospectus will be distributed if it is required.
This prospectus will set forth:
o the number of securities being offered and the terms of the
offering, including the name or names of any underwriter, dealer
or agent,
o the purchase price paid by the underwriter for securities purchased
from the selling securityholders and
o any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or
paid to dealers and the proposed selling price to the public.
Sales of securities by the selling securityholders or even the potential of such
sales would likely have an adverse effect on the market prices of the securities
being offered. Following the closing of this offering (which assumes the
exercise of all warrants and conversion of all promissory notes held by the
selling securityholders), 34,072,790 shares of common stock will be freely
tradable.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The following descriptions of securities are qualified in all respects by
reference to the certificate of incorporation and by-laws and the terms of the
convertible promissory notes and warrants issued to the selling security
holders, copies of which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of
which this prospectus is a part. The certificate of incorporation authorizes
Financial Intranet to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value
$.001 per share, and no preferred stock. Neither the certificate of
incorporation nor the by-laws contain any provision that would delay, defer or
prevent a change in control.
Common stock
23,624,292 shares of common stock are issued and outstanding. Each share of
common stock entitles the holder to one vote on each matter submitted to the
stockholders. The holders of common stock:
o have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available for
payment of dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors;
o are entitled to share ratably in all of the assets available for distribution
to holders of common stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
affairs of Financial Intranet;
o do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights, or redemption or
access to any sinking fund; and
o are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters submitted
to stockholders for a vote at any meeting of stockholders. Financial
Intranet has not paid any dividends on its common stock to date. Financial
Intranet anticipates that, for the foreseeable future, it will retain
earnings, if any, to finance the continuing operations of its business. The
payment of dividends will depend upon, among other things, capital
requirements and the operating and financial conditions of Financial
Intranet.
Shareholders do not have any pre-emptive rights to subscribe for or purchase any
stock, warrants or other securities of Financial Intranet. The common stock is
not convertible or redeemable. Neither the certificate of incorporation nor its
by-laws provide for pre-emptive rights.
Options
Financial Intranet has issued options to three affiliates (including two
executive officers) to purchase 5,202,162 shares of common stock at an exercise
price of $.19 per share, which options are exercisable through December 31,
2001. Financial Intranet has issued options to one other employee to purchase
250,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $.31, one-third of which
vests each year commencing August 20, 2000 and are exercisable for two years
after vesting. Financial Intranet has issued options to persons not affiliated
with Financial Intranet to purchase an aggregate of 592,630 shares of common
stock at exercise prices ranging from $.18 to $7.50.
Convertible notes and warrants
$500,000 7% convertible promissory note and warrants
On December 31, 1998, Financial Intranet issued a 7% convertible promissory note
in the principal amount of $500,000 with a maturity date of December 31, 2001
and warrants to purchase 1,250,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price
of $.60 per share through December 31, 2003. The promissory note is convertible
into common stock at any time by the lender. On the maturity date, Financial
Intranet is required to automatically convert the remaining outstanding
principal amount and accrued interest of the promissory note at the conversion
price into common stock.
Each of the 1,250,000 warrants issued in conjunction with the promissory note
entitle the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price
per share of common stock of $0.60. The warrants may be exercised through

December 31, 2003.
The shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory notes and

alternate prospectus.
$1,700,000 7% convertible promissory notes and warrants
Initial note and warrants
In February 1999, Financial Intranet issued a 7% convertible promissory note in
the principal amount of $600,000, with $240,000 principal amount, and all
accrued interest, payable on demand commencing March 10, 1999, and $360,000
principal amount, and all accrued interest, payable on demand commencing May 9,
1999. The holder converted the $240,000 portion of the note into common stock in
March 1999 and the $360,000 balance into common stock in May 1999. Financial
Intranet issued 1,500,000 warrants in February 1999 to purchase common stock at
an exercise price per share of $.60. The warrants may be exercised through
February 6, 2002. Financial Intranet's obligations under the promissory note for
$600,000 are subject to a guarantee by Ben B. Stein and secured by a pledge of
1,500,000 shares of common stock. Mr. Stein pledged 600,000 shares of common
stock as collateral for Financial Intranet's obligation payable March 10, 1999,
and 900,000 shares as collateral for Financial Intranet's obligation payable May
9, 1999.
On February 6, 2002, Financial Intranet is required to automatically convert any
and all remaining outstanding principal amount and accrued interest of the
promissory note at the conversion price into common stock.
Installment convertible promissory notes and warrants
The purchaser of the initial note in the principal amount of $600,000 has agreed
to purchase and Financial Intranet has agreed to sell four installment
convertible notes in an aggregate amount of $1,100,000 and warrants to purchase
1,833,333 shares of common stock. The investor agreed to purchase, for
$1,100,000, additional convertible promissory notes and warrants to purchase
1,833,333 shares of common stock. However, the investor is not obligated to
purchase the notes unless several conditions are met. One condition to the
investor's obligation is the registration under the Securities Act of the shares
issuable upon conversion of the notes and exercise of the warrants. These shares
are not being registered at this time. A second condition to the investor's
obligation to purchase the notes and warrants is that Financial Intranet's
public trading volume or market value on the OTC Bulletin Board must meet
certain minimum threshold requirements. Within 30 days of the date of the
prospectus registering the shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the notes
and warrants and assuming the conditions precedent are met, the investor has
agreed to purchase for $200,000 a promissory note in the principal amount of
$200,000 and a warrant for the purchase of 333,333 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $.60 per share. During the 90 day period after the closing of
the installment for a promissory note in the principal amount of $200,000, and
assuming the conditions precedent are met, the investor has agreed to purchase
for $300,000 a promissory note in the principal amount of $300,000 and a warrant
for the purchase of 500,000 shares of common stock. During the 90 day period
after the issuance of the first $300,000 note and assuming the conditions
precedent are met, the investor has agreed to purchase for $300,000 a promissory
note in the principal amount of $300,000 and a warrant for the purchase of
500,000 shares of common stock. During the 90 day period after the issuance of
the second $300,000 note and assuming the conditions precedent are met, the
investor has agreed to purchase for $300,000 a promissory note in the principal
amount of $300,000 and a warrant for the purchase of 500,000 shares of common
stock. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years after issuance at
an exercise price of $.60 per share.
The conversion prices for the convertible promissory notes are the lesser of :
o 75% of the average of the five lowest closing bid prices of the
common stock during the 30 trading days ending on the trading
day immediately preceding the conversion date, or
o either:
$.40 per share for the promissory note for $500,000 issued in
December 1998 and the promissory note in the principal amount
of $600,000 issued in February 1999;
$.50 per share for the promissory note in the principal amount
of $200,000, and
$.60 per share for the three promissory notes in the aggregate
principal amount of $900,000.
The convertible promissory notes are convertible and the warrants are
exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time. However, the promissory note may
not be converted nor the warrants exercised to the extent that after such
conversion, the sum of
42
<PAGE>
* the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the holder and
its affiliates (other than shares of common stock which may be deemed
beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of
the promissory note) and
o the aggregate number of shares of common stock issuable upon the proposed
conversion of the promissory note and the warrants would result in
beneficial ownership by the holder and its affiliates of 4.99% or more of
Financial Intranet's issued and outstanding shares of common stock
following such exercise or conversion.
The 4.99% limitations in the promissory note and warrants do not apply to any
automatic conversion by Financial Intranet. The 4.99% limitations apply to any
transferee of the promissory note from the purchaser of such shares from
Financial Intranet.
The shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory notes and
warrants issued in conjunction with the notes are not being registered in the
alternate prospectus.
$500,000 8% convertible promissory note and warrants
On July 20, 1999, Financial Intranet issued an 8% convertible promissory note
in the principal amount of $500,000 with a maturity date of October 20, 1999 and
warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $.50
per share through October 20, 2004. The promissory note is convertible into
common stock at any time after the maturity date at the conversion price. The
conversion price is equal to the lesser of
* $.50 per share, or
* 75% of the average closing bid price per share for the five
trading days immediately prior to the conversion date.
Financial Intranet's obligations under the promissory note are subject to a
guarantee by Ben B. Stein, Michael Sheppard and Maura Marx and secured by a
pledge of 924,517 shares of common stock by Mr. Stein, 96,151 shares by Mr.
Sheppard and 101,844 shares by Ms. Marx.
Each of the 200,000 warrants issued in conjunction with the promissory note
entitle the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price
per share of common stock of $0.50 provided, however, that the warrants are
exercisable only if Financial Intranet repays its obligations under the
promissory note in cash on or prior to the maturity date. The warrants may be
exercised through October 20, 2004.
The shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory notes and
warrants issued in conjunction with the notes are being registered in the
alternate prospectus.
Transfer agent
The transfer agent for the common stock is Liberty Transfer Co., 191 New York
Avenue, Huntington, New York 11743.
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Upon completion of this offering, Financial Intranet will have outstanding an
aggregate of 32,379,292 shares of common stock, assuming exercise of the
warrants and conversion of the promissory notes issued to the selling
securityholders. 27,111,463 shares of common stock will be freely tradable
without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. Of the
remaining shares of common stock outstanding, 5,168,459 shares will be
"restricted" shares that are owned by "affiliates" of Financial Intranet as such
terms are defined under the Securities Act and 93,370 shares are "restricted"
shares that are owned by nonaffiliates of Financial Intranet.
In general, under Rule 144, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated)
who has beneficially owned restricted securities within the meaning of Rule 144
securities for at least one year, including the holding period of any
securities
43
<PAGE>
which are converted into the restricted shares and including the holding period
of any prior owner, except an affiliate of Financial Intranet, would be entitled
to sell within any three-month period, only that a number of shares that do not
exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of common stock or the
average weekly trading volume of the common stock reported during the four
calendar weeks preceding such sale. Sales under Rule 144 must satisfy manner of
sale provisions, notice requirements and the availability of current public
information about Financial Intranet. Any person (or persons whose shares are
aggregated with such person) who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of
Financial Intranet at any time during the 90 days preceding a sale, and who has
beneficially owned shares for at least three years (including any period of
ownership of preceding non-affiliated holders), would be entitled to sell shares
under Rule 144(k) without regard to the volume limitations, manner of sale
provisions, public information requirements or notice requirements.
The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part also registers
1,575,000 shares of common stock previously issued to selling securityholders,
and 5,735,000 shares of common stock to be issued upon exercise of warrants and
convertible promissory notes, thus permitting the resale of such shares by
non-affiliates in the public market without restriction under the Securities
Act.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Financial Intranet, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Financial Intranet, Inc. (a
Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related
statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for
the years then ended and for the period from December 17, 1996 (inception) to
December 31, 1998. 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 audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Financial Intranet, Inc. (a
Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of
its operations, and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period
from December 17, 1996 (inception) to December 31, 1998, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements, the Company is in the development stage and has
experienced significant losses since its inception. In addition, the Company has
a negative working capital at December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the continuation of
the business is also dependent upon the Company's private placement and public
offering being successful. These matters raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with regard
to these matters are also further described in Note 1. The accompanying
financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998
(Unaudited with respect to data as of June 30, 1998 and 1999
and for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999)
Note 1--Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Financial Intranet, Inc. (the "Company"), formerly Wee Wees, Inc. (which was
formerly Alexis & Co.) is a Nevada corporation incorporated on December 16,
1993. The founder of the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Wee
Wees, Inc. on December 17, 1996 in order to obtain the benefits of a corporate
entity for the business. The Company provides a secure on-demand proprietary
network (intranet) for broker-dealers and their registered representatives. The
network is designed to provide updated training and data information concerning,
among other things, those mutual funds planning to participate in the Company's
network. In addition, the Company has developed an Internet presence accessible
to the general public, which will highlight the Company's clients. It is the
Company's plan to connect over 500 U.S. broker-dealer locations and subsequently
provide local access ports in various cities around the world. The Company has
not yet generated significant revenue from its operations and is therefore
considered to be a development stage company in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 7.
Going Concern Uncertainty
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company
will continue as a going concern. At December 31, 1997, the Company had a
negative working capital of $203,999 and a stockholders' equity of $164,961. At
December 31, 1998, the Company has a negative working capital of $667,438 and a
stockholders' equity of $42,963. As the Company is still in the development
stage and has experienced significant losses since its inception, there is
substantial doubt that it will be able to continue as a going concern without
the additional funding as contemplated by the Company's private placement and
public offering (see Note 12). If the public offering is not effected and
successful, management plans to seek alternate funding from an affiliated third
party, which will enable the Company to grow beyond the development stage. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are principally from users of the Company's communications
network. Accounts receivable at December 31, 1998 and June 30, 1999 were
$44,070 and $14,362, respectively. There were no accounts receivable at December
31, 1997 as no revenues were generated during 1997. Accounts receivable at June
30, 1998 was $27,069. Management believes that all accounts receivable are fully
collectible; accordingly, no allowance for uncollectible accounts has been
provided.

Years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998
(Unaudited with respect to data as of June 30, 1998 and 1999
and for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999)
Note 1--Summary of Significant Accounting Policies--(Continued)
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated on the
straight line basis over the estimated lives of the assets which range from
three to five years. At December 31, 1997, the computer hardware and software
acquired to implement the Company's intranet and internet systems were not fully
operational. As such, no depreciation or amortization had been calculated for
these assets for 1997 or at June 30, 1998.
Deferred offering and debt issuance costs
Costs incurred in connection with the proposed offering of securities (see Note
12) and with the issuance of the December 31, 1998 convertible promissory note
have been deferred and will be offset against the proceeds of the offering and
conversion of debt. If the offering is not effected, these costs will be
expensed. The debt issuance costs will be amortized over the life of the debt,
if not converted. Amortization of debt issuance costs for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 was $9,584.
Capitalized software development costs
Capitalized software development costs represent the costs of developing and
updating an Internet presence at the Company's web site. These costs are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated life of two years in
accordance with Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Cost of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." There was no amortization in
1997 because the web site was not placed in service until 1998. Amortization of
capitalized software development costs was $21,768 for the year ended December
31, 1998. Amortization of capitalized software development costs was $5,690
and $33,147 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999, respectively.
Basis for assigning amounts to equity securities issued for other than cash
Shares of common stock issued for other than cash have been assigned amounts
equivalent to the fair market value of the service or assets received in
exchange.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized at the time telephone communications usage is incurred.
Advertising
Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred.
Income taxes

and for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999)
Note 1--Summary of Significant Accounting Policies--(Continued)
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability
method of accounting for income taxes proscribed by Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Under the asset and
liability method of Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under Statement 109, the
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Earnings per share
During the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company adopted the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS
128"). SFAS 128 requires the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per
share ("EPS"). Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common
stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during
the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing that net loss by the
weighted-average number of common shares and common stock equivalents
outstanding during the period. Common stock equivalents have been excluded from
the weighted-average shares for 1997 and 1998, because their inclusion is
anti-dilutive. All prior period EPS information has been computed in accordance
with the new pronouncement.
Stock-based compensation
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" ("SFAS 123"). SFAS 123 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 31, 1995 and prescribes accounting and reporting standards for
all stock-based compensation plans, including employee stock options, restricted
stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights. SFAS 123
requires compensation expense to be recorded (i) using the new fair value method
or (ii) using existing accounting rules prescribed by Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25") and
related interpretations with pro forma disclosure of what net income and
earnings per share would have been had the Company adopted the new fair value
method. The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with
the provisions of APB 25.
Effect of recently issued accounting standards
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued two new disclosure
standards.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income" ("SFAS 130") establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive
income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, SFAS
130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current
accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a
financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other
financial statements. The Company's net loss is the only item of comprehensive
income through December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1998.

Note 1--Summary of Significant Accounting Policies--(Continued)
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments
of an Enterprise and related Information" ("SFAS 131"), which supersedes
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 14, "Financial Reporting for
Segments of a Business Enterprise", establishes standards for the way that
public enterprises report information about operating segments in annual
financial statements and requires reporting of selected information about
operating segments in interim financial statements regarding products and
services, geographic areas and major customers. SFAS 131 defines operating
segments as components of an enterprise about which separate financial
information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating
decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing
performance. The Company has only one operating segment.
SFAS 130 and 131 are effective for financial statements for periods beginning
after December 15, 1997 and require that comparative information for earlier
years be restated.
In February 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures About Pensions
and Other Postretirement Benefits" ("SFAS 132"), which standardizes the
disclosure requirements for pensions and other postretirement benefits. SFAS 132
is applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The Company
does not expect adoption of SFAS 132 to have a material effect, if any, on the
financial statements and results of operations.
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" (SFAS 133), which establishes accounting and reporting
standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other contracts, collectively referred to as derivatives and hedging
activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either
assets or liabilities in the statement of financial condition and measure those
instruments at fair value. SFAS 133 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 1999. The Company has not determined the effect on its financial
statements or results of operations, if any, from the adoption of this
statement.
In October 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 134, "Accounting for Mortgage-backed
Securities Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale by
a Mortgage Banking Enterprise" (SFAS 134). This is an amendment to Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 65, "Accounting for Certain Mortgage Banking
Activities", which establishes standards requiring that, after a securitization
of a mortgage loan is held for sale, an entity engaged in mortgage banking
activities classify the resulting mortgage-backed security as a trading
security. SFAS 134 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1998. The Company's financial statements and results of operations are
unaffected by SFAS 134.
In March 1998, the AICPA issued Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the
Cost of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" (SOP 98-1),
which provides guidance on accounting for the cost of computer software
developed or obtained for internal use regarding either the capitalization or
expensing of software costs that meet certain specified criteria. SOP 98-1 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998 with earlier
application encouraged. SOP 98-1 has been adopted by the Company for the year
ended December 31, 1998.
In April 1998, the AICPA issued Statement of Accounting Position, 98-5
"Reporting on the costs of Start up Activities" (SOP 98-5), which provides
guidance on defining start up activities and requires that entities expense
start-up costs and organizational costs as they are incurred. SOP 98-5 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998 with earlier
application encouraged, and was adopted by the Company in 1997.

Reclassifications
Certain accounts from the 1997 financial statements have been reclassified in
order to conform with the 1998 financial statement presentation. These
reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported net loss.
Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 1998 and 1999 and the
accompanying statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 and the six months ended June 30,
1998 and 1999 included herein have been prepared by the Company and are
unaudited. The information furnished in the unaudited financial statements
referred to above includes all adjustments that are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. The
results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 and the
six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.
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 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 could differ from those estimates.
Note 2--Notes Receivable
** 13 In connection with entering into a Letter of Intent to acquire 80% of the
equity of Micro-Intelligent Systems, Inc. (MIS), a private corporation that
manufactures a portable electronic document device, the Company provided loans

Consulting agreement--Civilization Communications Inc.
In October 1996, the Company entered into an agreement executed by its founder
(amended December 20, 1996), with Civilization Communications Inc. (CivCom), to
provide various consulting services. Specifically, CivCom assisted in the
preparation of the Company's Business Plan and the preparation of the initial
Private Placement Memorandum (PPM) as well as associated and relevant documents.
In addition, the agreement provides for CivCom, at the Company's request, to
assist in the preparation of all filings and to prepare the documentation
required to be filed with various state and federal agencies concerning the
raising of the funds encompassed by the PPM. In consideration of the services
provided, the agreement provides for $25,000 in compensation, payable as

Compensation cost charged to operations for stock options granted was $13,272
and $276,658 for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998, respectively and
$27,408 and $85,877 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999,
respectively, and a $104,904 for options cancelled was credited during the
six months ended June 30, 1999.
The Company applies APB 25 in accounting for its stock option plans.
Accordingly, stock compensation cost has been recorded based on the intrinsic
value of the options only. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock options
been recognized based on the fair value on the grant date under the methodology
prescribed by SFAS 123, the Company's net loss and net loss per share for the
years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998 would have been impacted as indicated in
the following table.
The pro forma results shown below reflect only the impact of options granted in
1997 and 1998. Also, since option vesting occurs over five years, the pro forma
impact shown for 1997 and 1998 is not representative of what the impact will be
in future years.

The above pro forma amount for purposes of SFAS 123 reflect the portion of the
estimated fair value of awards earned in 1997 and 1998. For purposes of pro
forma disclosure, the estimated fair value of options is amortized over the
vesting period of the stock options granted. The effects on pro forma
disclosure of applying SFAS 123 are not likely to be representative of the
effect on pro forma disclosures of future years.
The fair value of options granted (which is amortized to expense over the
option vesting period in determining the pro forma impact), is estimated on
the dated of grant using the Black - Sholes option pricing model with the
following weighted average assumptions:

1998 Stock Option Plan
In December, 1998, the Company established the 1998 Stock Option Plan ("1998
Plan") which provides for the granting of options which are intended to qualify
either as incentive stock options ("Incentive Stock Options") within the meaning
of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or as options
which are not intended to meet the requirements of such section ("Non-statutory
Stock Options"). The total number of shares of Common stock reserved for
issuance under the 1998 Plan is 1,500,000. Options to purchase shares may be
granted under the 1998 Plan to persons who, in the case of Incentive Stock
Options, are key employees (including officers) of the Company or, in the case
of Non-statutory Stock Options, are key employees (including officers) or
non-employee directors of, or non-employee consultants to, the Company.
The exercise price of all Incentive Stock Options granted under the 1998 Plan
must be at least equal to the fair market value of such shares on the date of
the grant or, in the case of Incentive Stock Options granted to the holder of
more than 10% of the Company's Common stock, at least 110% of the fair market
value of such shares on the date of the grant. The maximum exercise period for
which Incentive Stock Options may be granted is ten years from the date of grant
(five years in the case of an individual owning more than 10% of the Company's

Common stock). The aggregate fair market value (determined at the date of the
option grant) of shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are
exercisable for the first time by the holder of the option during any calendar
year shall not exceed $100,000.
The exercise price of all Non-statutory Stock Options granted under the 1998
Plan must be at least equal to 85% of the fair market value of such shares on
the date of the grant.
No options have been granted during 1998 pursuant to the 1998 Plan.
Note 9--Income Taxes
The Company has net operating loss carryforwards available for income tax
reporting purposes of approximately $3,000,000, in the aggregate, expiring in
2011 to 2013 which, upon recognition, gives rise to a deferred income tax asset
of approximately $340,000 and $1,200,000 at December 31, 1997 and 1998,
respectively.
The Company has recorded a 100% valuation allowance on the net deferred tax
asset since management cannot determine if it is more likely than not that the
deferred tax asset will be utilized.
Note 10--Related Party Transactions
Due from officers
At December 31, 1997, the Company had a $19,500 note receivable from an
officer/stockholder of the Company. The note receivable, which is due on demand,
bears interest at 8% a year. At December 31, 1997, there was $910 of accrued
interest on the note receivable. The balance of this note receivable was fully
repaid on November 19, 1998. At December 31, 1998 and June 30, 1999, there was
$5,074 and zero, respectively, in accounts receivable due from officers.
Due to officers
At December 31, 1997, the Company had an unsecured note payable in the amount of
$43,489 to an officer/stockholder. The borrowings, advanced to meet current
operating obligations, were due on demand and are non-interest bearing. The
remaining balance at December 31, 1998 was $5,889 and zero at June 30, 1999.
On August 27, 1998 and December 16, 1998, the Company borrowed an additional
$50,000 and $5,000, respectively from the same officer. The promissory notes,
with an interest rate of 8% a year, are due in 180 days. At December 31, 1998,
interest of $1,350 was accrued on this note. This amount was repaid on March 3,
1999 as part of an agreement with the Founder (see Note 12).
At December 31, 1998, the Company had an unsecured note payable in the amount of
$36,115 to another officer/stockholder, due on demand. The promissory note bears
an interest rate of 8% a year. At December 31, 1998, interest of $264 was
accrued on this note. At June 30, 1999, interest of $1,715 was accrued on this
note. The balance at December 31, 1998 was $36,379 and $37,830 at June 30, 1999.

Note 11--Contingency
Litigation
On July 23, 1998, H & H Acquisition Corp., individually and on behalf of the
Company, commenced an action in federal court in the Southern District of New
York against the Company, the founder and certain officers, among others. The
complaint is an action to recover shares of common stock of the Company
previously sold to an officer/stockholder and unspecified damages. Management
believes that the claims against the Company and certain officers are without
merit and is vigorously defending the action. In addition, management believes
that the plaintiffs' principal causes of action relate to the founder, who has
filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on the grounds, in part, that a mutual
release previously executed with the plaintiff covers the alleged action. No
provision has been made in these financial statements for any possible losses
arising from this litigation.
Settlement agreement
In February 1998, a collateral pledge agreement was executed between the Company
and two outside parties to arrange for the Company to receive $350,000 to
purchase certain network computer and telecommunications equipment. Pursuant to
that collateral pledge agreement, the Company granted a first priority security
interest to one of the parties (the "facilitator") in order to secure the
obligations of the other party ("the borrower") under said agreement. The
Company did not receive the contemplated funds and had to make other
arrangements to fund its purchase of the equipment.
In July 1998, in order to obtain a release of the security interest in the
equipment, the Company issued 500,000 shares of its common stock to the
facilitator. If the facilitator desires to sell the shares, the Company has a
right of first refusal to purchase those shares. In the event there is a sale of
the total shares, the facilitator receives the first $175,000 of the net
proceeds, and the balance shall be divided equally between the facilitator and
the Company. If the sale of shares has not taken place by July 31, 1999, this
agreement shall terminate and the facilitator shall retain ownership of the
shares. The Company has charged $315,000 to operations for the year ended
December 31, 1998 to reflect the issuance of the 500,000 shares of common stock.
Note 12--Subsequent Events
Private placement
On February 8, 1999, the Company entered into a subscription agreement for a
private placement of up to $1,700,000 principal amount of 7% convertible
promissory notes and warrants to purchase up to 3,333,333 shares of common stock
in up to five separate installments at an exercise price of $.40 per share for
the initial warrants and $.60 per share for the installments. The agreements
consist of an initial purchase of a Promissory Note in the principal amount of
$600,000 (the "Initial Note") and Initial Warrants to purchase 1,500,000 shares
of Common stock for a purchase price of $600,000. In addition, the agreement
provides for the purchase four installment convertible notes in an aggregate
amount of $1,100,000 and warrants to purchase 1,833,333 shares of common stock.
At the initial closing, the Company issued a 7% convertible promissory note in
the principal amount of $600,000, with $240,000 principal amount, and all
accrued interest, payable on demand commencing March 10, 1999, and $360,000
principal amount, and all accrued interest, payable on demand commencing May 9,
1999. The holder converted the $240,000 portion of the note into common stock in
March 1999 and the $360,000 balance into common stock in May 1999. The Company
issued 1,500,000 warrants in February 1999 to purchase common stock at
an exercise price per share of $.60. The warrants may be exercised through
February 6, 2002. The Company's obligations under the promissory note for
$600,000 are subject to a guarantee by Ben B. Stein and secured by a pledge of
1,500,000 shares of common stock. Mr. Stein pledged 600,000 shares of common
stock as collateral for the Company's obligation payable March 10, 1999,
and 900,000 shares as collateral for the Company's obligation payable May
9, 1999.
On February 6, 2002, the Company is required to automatically convert any
and all remaining outstanding principal amount and accrued interest of the
promissory note at the conversion price into common stock.
The purchaser of the initial note in the principal amount of $600,000 has agreed
to purchase and the Company has agreed to sell four installment convertible
notes in an aggregate amount of $1,100,000 and warrants to purchase 1,833,333
shares of common stock. The investor agreed to purchase, for $1,100,000,
additional convertible promissory notes and warrants to purchase 1,833,333
shares of common stock. However, the investor is not obligated to purchase the
notes unless several conditions are met. One condition to the investor's
obligation is the registration under the Securities Act of the shares issuable
upon conversion of the notes and exercise of the warrants. A second condition to
the investor's obligation to purchase the notes and warrants is that the
Company's public trading volume or market value on the OTC Bulletin Board must
meet certain minimum threshold requirements.
Within 30 days of the date of the prospectus registering the shares of common
stock issuable pursuant to the notes and warrants and assuming the conditions
precedent are met, the investor has agreed to purchase for $200,000 a promissory
note in the principal amount of $200,000 and a warrant for the purchase of
333,333 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $.60 per share. During
the 90 day period after the closing of the installment for a promissory note in
the principal amount of $200,000, and assuming the conditions precedent are met,
the investor has agreed to purchase for $300,000 a promissory note in the
principal amount of $300,000 and a warrant for the purchase of 500,000 shares of
common stock. During the 90 day period after the issuance of the first $300,000
note and assuming the conditions precedent are met, the investor has agreed to
purchase for $300,000 a promissory note in the principal amount of $300,000 and
a warrant for the purchase of 500,000 shares of common stock. During the 90 day
period after the issuance of the second $300,000 note and assuming the
conditions precedent are met, the investor has agreed to purchase for $300,000 a
promissory note in the principal amount of $300,000 and a warrant for the
purchase of 500,000 shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable for a
period of five years after issuance at an exercise price of $.60 per share.
The conversion prices for the convertible promissory notes are the lesser of :
o 75% of the average of the five lowest closing bid prices of the
common stock during the 30 trading days ending on the trading
day immediately preceding the conversion date, or
o either:
$.40 per share for the promissory note for $500,000 issued in
December 1998 and the promissory note in the principal amount
of $600,000 issued in February 1999;
$.50 per share for the promissory note in the principal amount
of $200,000, and
$.60 per share for the three promissory notes in the aggregate
principal amount of $900,000.

The two agents for this placement, as part of their fee, each received 15,000
shares of Common stock and Initial Warrants to purchase 75,000 shares of Common
stock at an exercise price equal to $0.60 per share of Common stock (and
otherwise on terms set forth in the Common stock Purchase Warrant) on the
Initial Closing Date.
On each Closing Date for an installment: (i) the two Placement Agents, as part
of their fee, shall also each receive 1,727 shares of Common stock for each
$100,000 funded to the Company by the Investor, Installment Warrants to purchase
10,000 shares of Common stock on the Closing Date for each $100,000 funded on
the second installment, and Installment Warrants to purchase 8,333 shares of
Common stock on each Closing Date for each $100,000 funded on the third, fourth
and fifth installments. The Installment Warrants will have an exercise price of
$0.60 per share.
The financial statements reflect interest expense associated with these
promissory notes as a result of the favorable conversion feature upon issuance
of the promissory note. The total amount of interest expense recognized reflects
the effect of the beneficial conversion feature of the promissory notes which
are convertible into common stock at a predetermined rate.
The total amount of interest expense for the beneficial conversion feature is
approximately $1,209,000 which is calculated at February 8, 1999, the date of
issue. This calculation reflects the difference between the fair market value of
the stock of approximately $1,809,000 which also reflects a discount of 10% for
the limited marketability due to the stock being restricted and $600,000 which
is the face value of the promissory note. This amount is amortized over the
period of time the promissory note is outstanding.
Because the promissory note has been issued with beneficial conversion terms,
the entire amount of the interest expense will be amortized over the period of
time the promissory note is outstanding. The amount to be amortized is
approximately $484,000 for the promissory note converted on March 10, 1999, and
$725,000 for the promissory note converted on May 9. For the six months ended
June 30, 1999, the financial statements reflect a charge to operations of
$1,209,000 for the total amount of interest amortized for that period.
Public offering
In February 1999, the Company filed a Registration Statement (Form SB-2)
covering the primary offering of Common stock by the Company and the offering of
common stock by certain selling securityholders. Under the primary prospectus,
the Company is registering 10,909,091 Shares of common stock, par value $.001
per share, to be held for sale. These shares will be offered to the public at an
offering price anticipated to be $0.275 per share. Under an alternate
prospectus, the selling securityholders are registering 7,310,000 shares of
common stock, par share $.001 per share, to be held for sale, which includes
5,735,000 shares of common stock underlying warrants and convertible promissory
notes and 1,575,000 shares of common stock previously issued.

Note 12--Subsequent Events--(Continued)
Founder consulting agreement
On March 3, 1999 the Company entered into a consulting agreement with the
Company's Founder (the "Founder") whereby the Founder will be retained as a
consultant to act as Director of Brokerage Sales on a commission only basis
through December 31, 2002. The terms of compensation include commissions paid as
a percentage of sales and reimbursement of certain expenses as defined in the
agreement. In addition, under the terms of this agreement, the Founder
acknowledges that he agrees to reduce the number of unexercised options held by
him to purchase shares of the Company common stock from 3,640,262 to 2,500,000
shares at an exercise price of $.19 per share. The Founder has also agreed to
exercise these options with respect to 879,685 shares as of March 3, 1999 in
exchange for settlement of $167,140 in accrued salary and loans owed by the
Company to the Founder.
Convertible Promissory Note
On July 20, 1999, the Company issued an 8% convertible promissory note in the
principal amount of $500,000 with a maturity date of October 20, 1999, and
warrants, exercisable under certain conditions, to purchase up to 200,000 shares
of common stock at an exercise price of $.50 per share through October 20, 2004.
The "conversion price" shall be the lesser of: (i) 75% of the average of the
five lowest closing bid prices of the common stock during the five trading days
immediately preceding the conversion date, or (ii) $.50 per share. The
promissory note is convertible into common stock at any time after the maturity
date at the conversion price.
The interest expense associated with this promissory note is approximately
$183,000. This amount is based on the anticipated conversion of the promissory
note on October 20, 1999.
The total amount of interest expense to be recognized includes accrued interest
of approximately $13,000 for the stated interest rate of the promissory note and
approximately $170,000 to reflect the effect of the beneficial conversion
feature of the promissory note which is convertible into common stock at a
predetermined rate. The interest expense for the beneficial conversion feature
is calculated at July 20, 1999, the date of issue. This calculation reflects the
difference between the conversion price of $.50 per share and the fair value of
the common stock into which the security is convertible ($.67 per share),
multiplied by the number of shares into which the promissory note is convertible
(1,000,000 shares).
Because the promissory note has been issued with beneficial conversion terms,
the entire amount of the interest expense will be amortized over the period of
time the promissory note is outstanding. This period is expected to be from July
20, 1999, the issue date of the promissory note, to October 20, 1999, the date
the promissory note becomes convertible.
No expense will be recognized for warrants as the Company anticipates conversion
of the promissory note upon maturity and, as a result, the warrants will not be
exercisable.
Financial Intranet's obligations under the promissory note are subject to a
guarantee by Ben B. Stein, Michael Sheppard and Maura Marx, and secured by a
pledge of 924,517 shares of common stock by Mr. Stein, 96,151 shares by Mr.
Sheppard, and 101,844 shares by Ms. Marx.
The Company expects that its obligations under this convertible promissory note
will be satisfied by conversion into common stock. Each of the 200,000 warrants
issued in conjunction with the promissory note entitles the holder to purchase
one share of common stock at an exercise price of $.50 per share. However, the
warrants are exercisable only if the Company repays its obligations under the
promissory note in cash on or prior to the maturity date.
The agent for this transaction, as part of its fee, received 20,000 shares of
common stock and warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $0.50 per share of common stock.
The shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note and
warrants issued in conjunction with the note are being registered in the
alternate prospectus.
Promissory Note
On September 27, 1999, the Company issued an 8% promissory note in the principal
amount of $120,000 with a maturity date of December 26, 1999. There are no
warrants or convertible features associated with this promissory note.
