PART I
Item 1. Description of Business
Business Development
Fundae Corporation (the "Company") was organized on March 16, 1995, under
the laws of the State of Florida, having the stated purpose of engaging in any
lawful activities. The Company was formed with the contemplated purpose to sell
chocolate malts, flavoring and related products. The business concept and plan
was based upon information obtained by the incorporator several years before
while working for an unrelated company with the same concept and business plan.
The incorporator and sole shareholder was unable to obtain the cooperation and
assistance of workers and investors to implement the proposed plan. The primary
area of sales was to be in Florida, but was never brought to the development
stage. After development of a business plan and efforts to develop the business
failed, all efforts were abandoned in 1996. At that time the Company was unable
to obtain the necessary supply contracts for its product line, was unable to
obtain the necessary financing, therefore was unable to operate.
The Company never engaged in an active trade or business throughout the
period from 1996 until just recently. The Company charter was suspended (subject
to reinstatement) by the State of Florida in 1996 for inactivity and failure to
pay annual fees and costs. Its active status was reinstated on December 1, 1998,
upon payment of all past due fees and costs. On December 1, 1998, all of the
issued and outstanding shares of the common stock of the Company were acquired
from Richard W. A. Davis, its then sole shareholder, by Donald F. Mintmire,
legal representative of the current shareholders. The original incorporator and
shareholder agreed to exchange the 500,000 issued and outstanding shares held by
such shareholder to the new 25 member investor group in exchange for a
commitment by the new shareholder group to pay the cost of reactivating the
corporation, providing for its reinstatement, and bringing its books and records
up to date. The total of 500,000 shares was distributed 20,000 shares to each of
twenty-five (25) shareholders. In addition, the Company received gross proceeds
in the amount of $20,000 from the sale of a total of 400,000 shares of common
stock, $.0001 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), in an offering conducted
pursuant to Section 3(b) and 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act"), and Rules 505 and 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. This
offering was made in the State of Georgia and the State of Florida. The Company
undertook the offering of shares of Common Stock on December 1, 1998. Also on
December 1, 1998, the Company issued 500,000 shares of its Common Stock to Mr.
A. Rene Dervaes, Jr., the President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company in
consideration and in exchange for services valued at $12,500.00 in connection
with the re-organization of the Company. (See "Recent Sales of Unregistered
Securities")
The Company then began to consider and investigate potential business
opportunities. The Company is considered a development stage company and, due to
its status as a "shell" corporation, its principal business purpose is to locate
and consummate a merger or acquisition with a private entity. Because of the
Company's current status of having limited assets and no recent operating
history, in the event the Company does successfully acquire or merge with an
operating business opportunity, it is likely that the Company's present
<PAGE>
shareholders will experience substantial dilution and there will be a probable
change in control of the Company.
On December 1, 1998, the Company also determined it should become active in
seeking potential operating businesses and business opportunities with the
intent to acquire or merge with such businesses.
The Company is voluntarily filing its registration statement on Form 10-SB
in order to make information concerning itself more readily available to the
public. Management believes that being a reporting company under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), could provide a
prospective merger or acquisition candidate with additional information
concerning the Company. In addition, management believes that this might make
the Company more attractive to an operating business as a potential business
combination candidate. As a result of filing its registration statement, the
Company is obligated to file with the Commission certain interim and periodic
reports including an annual report containing audited financial statements. The
Company intends to continue to voluntarily file these periodic reports under the
Exchange Act even if its obligation to file such reports is suspended under
applicable provisions of the Exchange Act.
Any target acquisition or merger candidate of the Company will become
subject to the same reporting requirements as the Company upon consummation of
any such business combination. Thus, in the event that the Company successfully
completes an acquisition or merger with another operating business, the
resulting combined business must provide audited financial statements for at
least the two most recent fiscal years, or in the event that the combined
operating business has been in business less than two years, audited financial
statements will be required from the period of inception of the target
acquisition or merger candidate.
The Company's principal executive offices are located at 222 Lakeview
Avenue, Suite 160- 146, West Palm Beach, FL 33401 and its telephone number is
(561) 832-5698.
Business of Issuer
The Company has no recent operating history and no representation is made,
nor is any intended, that the Company will be able to carry on future business
activities successfully. Further, there can be no assurance that the Company
will have the ability to acquire or merge with an operating business, business
opportunity or property that will be of material value to the Company.
Management plans to investigate, research and, if justified, potentially
acquire or merge with one or more businesses or business opportunities. The
Company currently has no commitment or arrangement, written or oral, to
participate in any business opportunity and management cannot predict the nature
of any potential business opportunity it may ultimately consider. Management
will have broad discretion in its search for and negotiations with any potential
business or business opportunity.
<PAGE>
Sources of Business Opportunities
The Company intends to use various sources in its search for potential
business opportunities including its officer and director, consultants, special
advisors, securities broker-dealers, venture capitalists, member of the
financial community and others who may present management with unsolicited
proposals. Because of the Company's limited capital, it may not be able to
retain on a fee basis professional firms specializing in business acquisitions
and reorganizations. Rather, the Company will most likely have to rely on
outside sources, not otherwise associated with the Company, that will accept
their compensation only after the Company has finalized a successful acquisition
or merger. The Company will rely upon the expertise and contacts of such
persons, will use notices in written publications and personal contacts to find
merger and acquisition candidates, the exact number of such contacts dependent
upon the skill and industriousness of the participants and the conditions of the
marketplace. None of the participants in the process will have any past business
relationship with management. To date, the Company has not engaged nor entered
into any definitive agreements nor understandings regarding retention of any
consultant to assist the Company in its search for business opportunities, nor
is management presently in a position to actively seek or retain any prospective
consultants for these purposes.
The Company does not intend to restrict its search to any specific kind of
industry or business. The Company may investigate and ultimately acquire a
venture that is in its preliminary or development stage, is already in
operation, or in various stages of its corporate existence and development.
Management cannot predict at this time the status or nature of any venture in
which the Company may participate. A potential venture might need additional
capital or merely desire to have its shares publicly traded. The most likely
scenario for a possible business arrangement would involve the acquisition of,
or merger with, an operating business that does not need additional capital, but
which merely desires to establish a public trading market for its shares.
Management believes that the Company could provide a potential public vehicle
for a private entity interested in becoming a publicly held corporation without
the time and expense typically associated with an initial public offering.
Evaluation
Once the Company has identified a particular entity as a potential
acquisition or merger candidate, management will seek to determine whether
acquisition or merger is warranted or whether further investigation is
necessary. Such determination will generally be based on management's knowledge
and experience, (limited solely to working history - See "Item 5. Directors,
Executive Officers, etc.") or with the assistance of outside advisors and
consultants evaluating the preliminary information available to them. Management
may elect to engage outside independent consultants to perform preliminary
analysis of potential business opportunities. However, because of the Company's
limited capital it may not have the necessary funds for a complete and
exhaustive investigation of any particular opportunity. Management will not
devote full time to finding a merger candidate, will continue to engage in
outside unrelated activities, and anticipates devoting no more than an average
of five (5) hours weekly to such undertaking.
<PAGE>
In evaluating such potential business opportunities, the Company will
consider, to the extent relevant to the specific opportunity, several factors
including potential benefits to the Company and its shareholders; working
capital, financial requirements and availability of additional financing;
history of operation, if any; nature of present and expected competition;
quality and experience of management; need for further research, development or
exploration; potential for growth and expansion; potential for profits; and
other factors deemed relevant to the specific opportunity.
Because the Company has not located or identified any specific business
opportunity as of the date hereof, there are certain unidentified risks that
cannot be adequately expressed prior to the identification of a specific
business opportunity. There can be no assurance following consummation of any
acquisition or merger that the business venture will develop into a going
concern or, if the business is already operating, that it will continue to
operate successfully. Many of the potential business opportunities available to
the Company may involve new and untested products, processes or market
strategies which may not ultimately prove successful.
Form of Potential Acquisition or Merger
Presently the Company cannot predict the manner in which it might
participate in a prospective business opportunity. Each separate potential
opportunity will be reviewed and, upon the basis of that review, a suitable
legal structure or method of participation will be chosen. The particular manner
in which the Company participates in a specific business opportunity will depend
upon the nature of that opportunity, the respective needs and desires of the
Company and management of the opportunity, and the relative negotiating strength
of the parties involved. Actual participation in a business venture may take the
form of an asset purchase, lease, joint venture, license, partnership, stock
purchase, reorganization, merger or consolidation. The Company may act directly
or indirectly through an interest in a partnership, corporation, or other form
of organization, however, the Company does not intend to participate in
opportunities through the purchase of minority stock positions.
Because of the Company's current status and recent inactive status for the
prior two (2) years, and its concomitant lack of assets and relevant operating
history, it is likely that any potential merger or acquisition with another
operating business will require substantial dilution to the Company's existing
shareholders interests. There will probably be a change in control of the
Company, with the incoming owners of the targeted merger or acquisition
candidate taking over control of the Company. Management has not established any
guidelines as to the amount of control it will offer to prospective business
opportunity candidates, since this issue will depend to a large degree on the
economic strength and desirability of each candidate, and the corresponding
relative bargaining power of the parties. However, management will endeavor to
negotiate the best possible terms for the benefit of the Company's shareholders
as the case arises. Management may actively negotiate or otherwise consent to
the purchase of any portion of their common stock as a condition to, or in
connection with, a proposed merger or acquisition. In such an event, existing
shareholders may not be afforded an opportunity to approve or consent to any
particular stock buy-out transaction. However the terms of the sale of shares
held by present management of the Company will be extended equally to all other
current shareholders.
<PAGE>
Management does not have any plans to borrow funds to compensate any
persons in conjunction with its efforts to find and acquire or merge with
another business opportunity. Management does not have any plans to borrow funds
to pay compensation to any prospective business opportunity, or shareholders,
management, creditors, or other potential parties to the acquisition or merger.
In either case, it is unlikely that the Company would be able to borrow
significant funds for such purposes from any conventional lending sources. In
all probability, a public sale of the Company's securities would also be
unfeasible, and management does not contemplate any form of new public offering
at this time. In the event that the Company does need to raise capital, it would
most likely have to rely on the private sale of its securities. Such a private
sale would be limited to persons exempt under the Commissions's Regulation D or
other rule, or provision for exemption, if any applies. However, no private
sales are contemplated by the Company's management at this time. If a private
sale of the Company's securities is deemed appropriate in the future, management
will endeavor to acquire funds on the best terms available to the Company.
However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain
funding when and if needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained
on terms reasonable or acceptable to the Company. The Company does not
anticipate using Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 to
raise any funds any time within the next year, subject only to its potential
applicability after consummation of a merger or acquisition.
In the event of a successful acquisition or merger, a finder's fee, in the
form of cash or securities of the Company, may be paid to persons instrumental
in facilitating the transaction. The Company has not established any criteria or
limits for the determination of a finder's fee, although most likely an
appropriate finder's fee will be negotiated between the parties, including the
potential business opportunity candidate, based upon economic considerations and
reasonable value as estimated and mutually agreed upon at that time. A finder's
fee would only be payable upon completion of the proposed acquisition or merger
in the normal case, and management does not contemplate any other arrangement at
this time. Current management has not in the past used any particular
consultants, advisors or finders. Current management does not contemplate hiring
any particular consultant, advisor or finder used by management in the past.
Management has not actively undertaken a search for, nor retention of, any
finder's fee arrangement with any person. It is possible that a potential merger
or acquisition candidate would have its own finder's fee arrangement, or other
similar business brokerage or investment banking arrangement, whereupon the
terms may be governed by a pre-existing contract; in such case, the Company may
be limited in its ability to affect the terms of compensation, but most likely
the terms would be disclosed and subject to approval pursuant to submission of
the proposed transaction to a vote of the Company's shareholders. Management
cannot predict any other terms of a finder's fee arrangement at this time. It
would be unlikely that a finder's fee payable to an affiliate of the Company
would be proposed because of the potential conflict of interest issues. If such
a fee arrangement was proposed, independent management and directors would
negotiate the best terms available to the Company so as not to compromise the
fiduciary duties of the affiliate in the proposed transaction, and the Company
would require that the proposed arrangement would be submitted to the
shareholders for prior ratification in an appropriate manner.
<PAGE>
Management does not contemplate that the Company would acquire or merge
with a business entity in which any officer or director of the Company has an
interest. Any such related party transaction, however remote, would be submitted
for approval by an independent quorum of the Board of Directors and the proposed
transaction would be submitted to the shareholders for prior ratification in an
appropriate manner. The Company's management has not had any contact,
discussions, or other understandings regarding any particular business
opportunity at this time, regardless of any potential conflict of interest
issues. Accordingly, the potential conflict of interest is merely a remote
theoretical possibility at this time.
Possible Blank Check Company Status
While the Company may be deemed a "shell" company at this time, it does not
constitute a "blank check" company under pertinent securities law standards.
Accordingly, the Company is not subject to securities regulations imposed upon
companies deemed to be "blank check companies." If the Company were to file a
registration statement under Securities Act of 1933 and, at such time, priced
its shares at less than $5.00 per share and continued to have no specific
business plan, it would then be classified as a blank check company.
If in the future the Company were to become a blank check company,
adverse consequences could attach to the Company. Such consequences can include,
but are not limited to, time delays of the registration process, significant
expenses to be incurred in such an offering, loss of voting control to public
shareholders and the inability or unwillingness to comply with various federal
and state laws enacted for the protection of investors, including so-called
"lock-up" agreements pending consummation of a merger or acquisition that would
take it out of blank check company status.
Many states (excluding Florida where the Company is incorporated) have
statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of "blank check"
companies in their respective jurisdictions. Management does not intend to
undertake any efforts to cause a market to develop in the companies securities
or to undertake any offering of the Company's securities, either debt or equity,
until such time as the Company has successfully implemented its business plan
described herein. In the event the Company undertakes the filing of a
registration statement under circumstances that classifies it as a blank check
company the provisions of Rule 419 and other applicable provisions will be
complied with.
Rights of Shareholders
The Company amended its Articles of Incorporation on December 15, 1998, to
expressly provide that the Board of Directors is authorized to enter into on
behalf of the corporation and to bind the corporation without shareholder
approval, any and all acts approving the terms and conditions of a merger and/or
a share exchange, and shareholders affected thereby, shall not be entitled to
dissenters rights with respect thereto under any applicable statutory dissenters
rights provision. This provision expressly eliminates shareholder participation
in the merger and/or share exchange contemplated by the Company and expressly
eliminates any shareholders dissenters rights.
<PAGE>
Competition
Because the Company has not identified any potential acquisition or merger
candidate, it is unable to evaluate the type and extent of its likely
competition. The Company is aware that there are several other public companies
with only nominal assets that are also searching for operating businesses and
other business opportunities as potential acquisition or merger candidates. The
Company will be in direct competition with these other public companies in its
search for business opportunities and, due to the Company's limited funds, it
may be difficult to successfully compete with these other companies.
Employees
As of the date hereof, the Company does not have any employees and has no
plans for retaining employees until such time as the Company's business warrants
the expense, or until the Company successfully acquires or merges with an
operating business. The Company may find it necessary to periodically hire
part-time clerical help on an as-needed basis.
Facilities
The Company is currently using at no cost to the Company, as its principal
place of business offices of its current management, A. Rene Dervaes, Jr.,
located in West Palm Beach, Florida. Although the Company has no written
agreement and pays no rent for the use of this facility, it is contemplated that
at such future time as an acquisition or merger transaction may be completed,
the Company will secure commercial office space from which it will conduct its
business. Until such an acquisition or merger, the Company lacks any basis for
determining the kinds of office space or other facilities necessary for its
future business. The Company has no current plans to secure such commercial
office space. It is also possible that a merger or acquisition candidate would
have adequate existing facilities upon completion of such a transaction, and the
Company's principal offices may be transferred to such existing facilities.
Industry Segments
No information is presented regarding industry segments. The Company is
presently a development stage company seeking a potential acquisition of or
merger with a yet to be identified business opportunity. Reference is made to
the statements of income included herein in response to part F/S of this Form
10-SB for a report of the Company's operating history for the past two fiscal
years.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
The Company is considered a development stage company with limited assets
or capital, and with no operations or income since approximately 1996. The costs
and expenses associated with the preparation and filing of this registration
statement and other operations of the Company have been paid for by a
shareholder, specifically A. Rene Dervaes, Jr. (see Item 4, Security Ownership
of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management-A. Rene Dervaes, Jr., is the
<PAGE>
controlling shareholder). Mr. Dervaes has agreed to pay future costs associated
with filing future reports under Exchange Act of 1934 if the Company is unable
to do so. It is anticipated that the Company will require only nominal capital
to maintain the corporate viability of the Company and any additional needed
funds will most likely be provided by the Company's existing shareholders or its
sole officer and director in the immediate future. Current shareholders have not
agreed upon the terms and conditions of future financing and such undertaking
will be subject to future negotiations, except for the express commitment of Mr.
Dervaes to fund required 34 Act filings. Repayment of any such funding will also
be subject to such negotiations. However, unless the Company is able to
facilitate an acquisition of or merger with an operating business or is able to
obtain significant outside financing, there is substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern.
In the opinion of management, inflation has not and will not have a
material effect on the operations of the Company until such time as the Company
successfully completes an acquisition or merger. At that time, management will
evaluate the possible effects of inflation on the Company as it relates to its
business and operations following a successful acquisition or merger.
Management plans currently provide for experts to secure a successful
acquisition or merger partner so that it will be able to continue as a going
concern. In the event such efforts are unsuccessful, contingent plans have been
arranged to provide that the current Director of the Company is to fund required
future filings under the 34 Act, and existing shareholders have expressed an
interest in additional funding if necessary to continue the Company as a going
concern.
Plan of Operation
During the next twelve months, the Company will actively seek out and
investigate possible business opportunities with the intent to acquire or merge
with one or more business ventures. In its search for business opportunities,
management will follow the procedures outlined in Item 1 above. Because the
Company has limited funds, it may be necessary for the sole officer and director
to either advance funds to the Company or to accrue expenses until such time as
a successful business consolidation can be made. Management intends to hold
expenses to a minimum and to obtain services on a contingency basis when
possible. Further, the Company's directors will defer any compensation until
such time as an acquisition or merger can be accomplished and will strive to
have the business opportunity provide their remuneration. However, if the
Company engages outside advisors or consultants in its search for business
opportunities, it may be necessary for the Company to attempt to raise
additional funds. As of the date hereof, the Company has not made any
arrangements or definitive agreements to use outside advisors or consultants or
to raise any capital. In the event the Company does need to raise capital most
likely the only method available to the Company would be the private sale of its
securities. Because of the nature of the Company as a development stage company,
it is unlikely that it could make a public sale of securities or be able to
borrow any significant sum from either a commercial or private lender. There can
be no assurance that the Company will able to obtain additional funding when and
if needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on terms
acceptable to the Company.
<PAGE>
The Company does not intend to use any employees, with the possible
exception of part-time clerical assistance on an as-needed basis. Outside
advisors or consultants will be used only if they can be obtained for minimal
cost or on a deferred payment basis. Management is convinced that it will be
able to operate in this manner and to continue its search for business
opportunities during the next twelve months.
Item 3. Description of Property
The information required by this Item 3 is not applicable to this Form
10-SB due to the fact that the Company does not own or control any material
property. There are no preliminary agreements or understandings with respect to
office facilities in the future.
Item 4. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
The following table sets forth information, to the best knowledge of the
Company as of January 15, 1999, with respect to each person known by the Company
to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company's outstanding common stock, each
director of the Company and all directors and officers of the Company as a
group.

The business experience of the person listed above during the past five
years is as follows:
Mr. A. Rene Dervaes, Jr., 61 years old, has been a Director of the Company
since December 1, 1998. Prior to that time he was the co-founder and then
Chairman of the A.R. Dervaes Company, Inc. from 1961 to 1982, a 125 employee
manufacturer and supplier of equipment to heavy industry. From 1982 to 1985 he
was the President of Khonbu Industries, a designer and nationwide distributor of
exclusive consumer products. From 1978 to 1986 he was the Chairman and CEO of
Eagle Rock Corporation. From 1986 to 1990 he was the Chairman and CEO of Vantage
Industries, an international marketing firm. From 1991 to the present Mr.
Dervaes has served as the Chairman and CEO of Secured Retirement International,
Inc., specializing in the design and marketing of proprietary U.S. Treasury and
municipal bond mutual funds. Mr. Dervaes also co-invented a unique finance
product that pays increasing distributions through a patented method for pooling
and distributing bond income.
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires
the Company's executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10%
of a registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (hereinafter referred to as the "Commission")
initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and
annual reports concerning their ownership, of Common Stock and other equity
securities of the Company on Forms 3, 4, and 5, respectively. Executive
officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by Commission
regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they
file. To the Company's knowledge, Mr. Dervaes comprising all of the Company's
executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners of its
common Stock, have complied with Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to
them during the Company's most recent fiscal year.
Item 6. Executive Compensation
The Company has not had a bonus, profit sharing, or deferred compensation
plan for the benefit of its employees, officers or directors. The Company has
not paid any salaries or other compensation to its officers, directors or
employees for the years ended 1997 and 1998, nor at any time during 1999.
Further, the Company has not entered into an employment agreement with any of
its officers, directors or any other persons and no such agreements are
anticipated in the immediate future. It is intended that the Company's director
will defer any compensation until such time as an acquisition or merger can be
accomplished and will strive to have the business opportunity provide their
<PAGE>
remuneration. As of the date hereof, no person has accrued any compensation from
the Company.
Item 7. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
On December 1, 1998, the Company issued and sold 500,000 shares of the
Common Stock to Mr. Dervaes, the President, Secretary and Treasurer of the
Company and record and beneficial owner of approximately 35.7% of the Company's
outstanding Common Stock, in consideration and exchange therefore for services
valued at $12,500 in connection with the reorganization of the Company. Services
rendered and to be rendered by Mr. Dervaes include the restructuring of the
Company, obtaining requisite financial assistance, searching for merger and
acquisition candidates, and a commitment on the part of Mr. Dervaes to fund, if
necessary, future filings of 34 Act requirements.
In addition Mr. Dervaes has paid for the cost and expenses associated with
the filing of this Form 10-SB and other operations of the Company.
At the current time, the Company has no provision to issue any additional
securities to management, promoters or their respective affiliates or
associates. At such time as the Board of Directors adopts an employee stock
option or pension plan, any issuance would be in accordance with the terms
thereof and proper approval. Although the Company has a very large amount of
authorized but unissued Common Stock and Preferred Stock which may be issued
without further shareholder approval or notice, the Company intends to reserve
such stock for the Rule 506 offerings for acquisitions.
During the Company's last two fiscal years, there have not been any other
transactions between the Company and any officer, director, nominee for election
as director, or any shareholder owning greater than five percent (5%) of the
Company's outstanding shares, nor any member of the above referenced
individuals' immediate family.
Item 8. Description of Securities
Common Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of common stock, no
par value, of which 1,400,000 shares are issued and outstanding as of the date
hereof. All shares of common stock have equal rights and privileges with respect
to voting, liquidation and dividend rights. Each share of Common Stock entitles
the holder thereof to (i) one non-cumulative vote for each share held of record
on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders; (ii) to participate
equally and to receive any and all such dividends as may be declared by the
Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor; and (iii) to
participate pro rata in any distribution of assets available for distribution
upon liquidation of the Company. Stockholders of the Company have no pre-emptive
rights to acquire additional shares of Common Stock or any other securities. The
Common Stock is not subject to redemption and carries no subscription or
conversion rights. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and
non-assessable.
<PAGE>
Preferred Stock
Shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more
series as may be determined by the Board of Directors. The voting powers and
preferences, the relative rights of each such series and the qualifications,
limitations and restrictions thereof shall be established by the Board of
Directors, except that no holder of Preferred Stock shall have preemptive
rights. At the present time no terms, conditions, limitations or preferences
have been established. The Company has no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding,
and the Board of Directors has no plan to issue any shares of preferred Stock
for the foreseeable future unless the issuance thereof shall be in the best
interests of the Company.
Certain Provision of Florida Law
Section 607.0902 of the Florida Business Corporation Act prohibits the
voting of shares in a publicly-held Florida corporation that are acquired in a
"control share acquisition" unless the holders of a majority of the
corporation's voting shares (exclusive of shares held by officers of the
corporation, inside directors or the acquiring party) approve the granting of
voting rights as to the shares acquired in the control share acquisition or
unless the acquisition is approved by the corporation's board of directors,
unless the corporation's articles of incorporation or bylaws specifically state
that this section does not apply. A "control share acquisition" is defined as an
acquisition that immediately thereafter entitles the acquiring party to vote in
the election of directors within each of the following ranges of voting power;
(i) one-fifth or more, but less than one-third of such voting power; (ii)
one-third or ore, but less than a majority of such voting power; and, (iii) more
than a majority of such voting power. The Amended Articles of Incorporation of
the Company specifically state that Section 607.0902 does not apply to
control-share acquisitions of shares of the Company.
Part II
Item 1. Market For Common Equity and Other Shareholder Matters.
No shares of the Company's common stock have previously been registered
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") or any state
securities agency or authority. The Company intends to make application to the
NASD for the Company's shares to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. The
application to the NASD will be made during the commission comment period for
this Form 10-SB. The Company's application to the NASD will consist of current
corporate information, financial statements and other documents as required by
Rule 15c211 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Inclusion on the
OTC Bulletin Board permits price quotation for the Company's shares to be
published by such service.
The Company is not aware of any existing trading market for its common
stock. The Company's common stock has never traded in a public market. There are
no plans, proposals, arrangements or understandings with any person(s) with
regard to the development of a trading market in any of the Company's
securities.
<PAGE>
If and when the Company's common stock is traded in the over-the-counter
market, most likely the shares will be subject to the provisions of Section
15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act"), commonly referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g)
sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule
15g9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule
3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.
The Commission generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that
has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.
Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock
unless that security is: registered and traded on a national securities exchange
meeting specified criteria set by the Commission; authorized for quotation on
The NASDAQ Stock Market; issued by a registered investment company; excluded
from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the
issuer's net tangible assets; or exempted from the definition by the Commission.
If the Company's shares are deemed to be a penny stock, trading in the shares
will be subject to additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who
sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited
investors, generally persons with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual
income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouse.
For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special
suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and must have
received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the
purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless
exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a
risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer
also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the
registered representative, and current quotations for the securities. Finally,
the monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the
penny stocks held in the account and information on the limited market in penny
stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker dealers to
trade and/or maintain a market in the Company's common stock and may affect the
ability of shareholders to sell their shares.
As of January 15, 1999, there were 26 holders of record of the Company's
common stock.
As of the date hereof, the Company has issued and outstanding 1,400,000
shares of common stock. Of this total, 500,000 shares were originally issued in
transactions more than three (3) years ago. Such shares may be sold or otherwise
transferred without restriction pursuant to the terms of rule 144 ("Rule 144")
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), unless held by an
affiliate or controlling shareholder of the Company. The Company has not
identified any affiliates of the Company and therefore shares as being held by
affiliates of the Company. The remaining 900,000 shares were issued subject to
Rule 144 and may not be sold and/or transferred without further registration
under the Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption.
Dividend Policy
The Company has not declared or paid cash dividends or made distributions
in the past, and the Company does not anticipate that it will pay cash dividends
or make distributions in the foreseeable future. The Company currently intends
<PAGE>
to retain and reinvest future earnings, if any, to finance its operations.
Marketing Public Quotation of Stock
The Company has not as of this date, but intends to request J. Alexander
Securities, 2999 NE 191st Street, Suite 408, Miami, FL, 33180, in the immediate
future a broker-dealer, to act as a market maker for the Company's securities.
Thus far, the Company has not requested J. Alexander Securities to submit the
Company's Form 10-SB to the National Association of Securities Dealers and to
serve as a market maker for the Company's Common Stock. The Company anticipates
that other market makers may be requested to participate at a later date. The
Company will not use consultants to obtain market makers. There have been no
preliminary discussions between the Company, or anyone acting on its behalf, and
any market maker regarding the future trading market for the Company. It is
anticipated that the market maker will be contacted prior to an acquisition or
merger and only by management of the Company.
Item 2. Legal Proceedings
The Company is currently not a party to any pending legal proceedings and
no such action by, or to the best of its knowledge, against the Company has been
threatened. The Company was inactive from 1996 through the date of this Form
10-SB.
Item 3. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants
Item 3 is not applicable to this Form 10-SB.
Item 4. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
On December 1, 1998, all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Common
Stock of the Company were acquired from its then sole shareholder by a
representative of the current shareholders. The total of 500,000 shares was
distributed 20,000 shares to each of twenty-five (25) shareholders. The Company
received a total offering price of $20,000 ($0.05 per share) from the sale of a
total of 400,000 shares of common stock, $.0001 per value per share (the "Common
Stock"), in an a self- underwritten offering conducted pursuant to Section 3(b)
and 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and Rules 505
and 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. These offering were made in the
State of Georgia and the State of Florida. The Company undertook the offering of
shares of Common Stock on December 1, 1998, and did not pay any underwriting
discounts or commissions. The issuance of shares to Mr. Dervaes totaling 500,000
shares was made in reliance on Section 4(2) and Section 506 of Regulation D. Mr.
Dervaes is an accredited investor, the books and records of the Company were
made available to him, and at the time of acquisition of such shares he was
serving as the sole Officer and Director of the Company.
<PAGE>
Item 5. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Article X of the Company's Amended Articles of Incorporation contains
provisions providing for the indemnification of directors and officers of the
Company as follows:
(a) The corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is
threatened to be made a party, of any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation, or is otherwise serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct is unlawful. The
termination of any action, suit or proceeding, by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not of itself
create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had
reasonable cause to believe the action was unlawful.
(b) The corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is
threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the corporation, to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent
of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action or suit, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in, or not, opposed to, the best interests of the
corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any
claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the
corporation, unless, and only to the extent that, the court in which such action
or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the
adjudication of liability, but in view of all circumstances of the case, such
person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses
which such court deems proper.
(c) To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections (a) and (b) of this Article,
or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorney's fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection therewith.
<PAGE>
(d) Any indemnification under Section (a) or (b) of this Article (unless
ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the
specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the officer, director
and employee or agent is proper in the circumstances, because he has met the
applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section (a) or (b) of this Article.
Such determination shall be made (i) by the Board of Directors by a majority
vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action,
suit or proceeding, or (ii) if such quorum is not obtainable or, even if
obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion, or (iii) by the affirmative vote of the holders of
a majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote and represented at a meeting
called for purpose.
(e) Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in defending a civil or
criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of
the final disposition or such action, suit or proceeding, as authorized in
Section (d) of this Article, upon receipt of an understanding by or on behalf of
the director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount, unless it shall
ultimately be determined that he is entitled to be indemnified by the
corporation as authorized in this Article.
(f) The Board of Directors may exercise the corporation's power to purchase
and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director,
officer, employee, or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the
request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any
liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or
arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the
power to indemnify him against such liability under this Article.
(g) The indemnification provided by this Article shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be
entitled under these Amended Articles of Incorporation, the Bylaws, agreements,
vote of the shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to
action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while
holding such office and shall continue as to person who has ceased to be a
director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs
and personal representative of such a person.
Transfer Agent
The Company is serving as its own transfer agent until it becomes eligible
for quotation with NASD.

Fundae Corporation
Palm Beach, Florida
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Fundae Corporation (a Florida
corporation and a development stage company) as of January 15, 1999, and the
related statements of operations, accumulated deficit and cash flows for the
period December 1, 1998 (date of inception) to January 15, 1999. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the financial statements,
the Company has incurred net losses since its inception. The Company's financial
position and operating results raise substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Management's plan regarding those matters also are
described in Note D. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Fundae Corporation
Notes to Financial Statements
January 15, 1999
Note A - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Organization
Fundae Corporation (a development stage company) is a Florida Corporation
organized March 16, 1995 to sell chocolate malts, flavorings and related
products. The Company failed in its attempt to implement its initial business
plan and during June 1996 abandoned its efforts. The Company had no operations
for the period prior to June 1996. The Company was inactive and there were no
transactions from June 1996 to the date of reinstatement by the State of Florida
on December 1, 1998 that affect the balances reflected in the financial
statements as of December 1, 1998.
The Company has a new business plan, which was adopted on or about December 1,
1998, which is to engage in seeking potential operating businesses and business
opportunities with the intent to acquire or merge with such businesses. The
assets of the Company will be used for its expenses of operation to implement
this plan.
Accounting Method
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of
accounting. The Company has elected a September 30 year end.
Start - Up Costs
Start - up and organization costs are being expensed as incurred.
Loss Per Share
The computation of loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted
average number of shares outstanding at the date of the financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results
could differ from those estimates.

Notes to Financial Statements
January 15, 1999
Note B - Stockholders' Equity:
On March 16, 1995, the Company issued 500,000 shares of common stock, in lieu of
cash, for the fair market value of services rendered by its initial officer -
stockholder. On or about December 1, 1998, third parties purchased the shares
from the initial officer - stockholder. On or about December 1, 1998, the
Company issued 500,000 shares of its common stock to its sole officer in
exchange for services valued at $12,500. Subsequently the same third parties
purchased at $0.05 per share, 400,000 shares of the common stock of the Company
in a private placement pursuant to Regulation D of the SEC. The $18,000 in
professional fees includes the costs and expenses (including legal fees)
associated with the preparation and filing of the registration statement.
Included in professional fees are additional legal fees of $1,500 unrelated to
the registration statement and $4,000 in auditing and accounting fees.
Note B - Stockholders' Equity (Cont'd):
At January 15, 1999, the Company had authorized 50,000,000 shares of $.0001 par
value common stock and had 1,400,000 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding. In addition, the Company authorized 10,000,000 shares of preferred
stock with the specific terms; conditions, limitations and preferences to be
determined by the Board of Directors. None of the preferred stock is issued and
outstanding.
Note C - Income Taxes:
The Company has a net operating loss carry forward of $19,237 that may be offset
against future taxable income. If not used, the carry forward will expire in
2014.
Note D - Going Concern:
The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted
accounting principles applied to a going concern which contemplates the
realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of
business. The Company has incurred losses from its inception through January 15,
1999. It has not established revenues sufficient to cover operating costs and to
allow it to continue as a going concern. Management plans currently provide for
experts to secure a successful acquisition or merger partner so that it will be
able to continue as a going concern. In the event such efforts are unsuccessful,
contingent plans have been arranged to provide that the current Director of the
Company is to fund required future filings under the 34 Act, and existing

by judgment, order, settlement, conviction upon a plea of nolo contendere or its
equivalent, shall not of itself create a presumption that the person did not act
in good faith in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to,
the best interests of the Corporation and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe the action was unlawful.
(b) The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is
threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the Corporation, to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent
of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action or suit, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any
claim, issue or matter as to whether such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the
Corporation, unless, and only to the extent that, the court in which such action
or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the
adjudication of liability, but in view of all circumstances of the case, such
person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses
which such court deems proper.
<PAGE>
(c) To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections (a) and (b) of this Article,
or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorney's fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection therewith.
(d) Any indemnification under Section (a) or (b) of this Article (unless
ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the
specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the officer,
director, employee or agent is proper under the circumstances, because he has
met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section (a) or (b) of this
Article. Such determination shall be made (i) by the Board of Directors by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such
action, suit or proceeding, or (ii) if such quorum is not obtainable or, even if
obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion, or (iii) by the affirmative vote of the holders of
a majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote and represented at a meeting
called for that purpose.
(e) Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in defending a civil or
criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of
the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, as authorized in
Section (d) of this Article, upon receipt of an understanding by or on behalf of
the director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount, unless it shall
ultimately be determined that he is entitled to be indemnified by the
Corporation as authorized in this Article.
(f) The Board of Directors may exercise the Corporation's power to purchase
and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director,
officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the
request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any
liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or
arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the
power to indemnify him against such liability under this Article.
(g) The indemnification provided by this Article shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be
entitled under these Amended Articles of Incorporation, the Bylaws, agreements,
vote of the shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to
action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while
holding such office and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a
director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs
and personal representatives of such a person.

days prior to such meeting, shall be kept on file at the office of the
Corporation and shall be subject to inspection by any shareholder at any time
during usual business hours. Such list shall be produced and kept open at the
time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of any
shareholder during the meeting. The original share ledger or stock transfer
book, or a duplicate thereof kept in this State, shall be prima facie evidence

be entitled to one vote upon each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of
shareholders.
SECTION 11. VOTING OF SHARES BY CERTAIN HOLDERS. Shares standing in the

voted in the manner determined by the majority of such fiduciaries, unless the
instrument or order appointing such fiduciaries otherwise directs. Shares
standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by such receiver, and shares
held by or under the control of a receiver may be voted by such receiver without
the transfer thereof into his name if authority to do so is contained in an
appropriate order of the court by which such receiver was appointed.
A shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote such
shares (except that if the right to vote be expressly given in writing to the
pledgee and notice thereof delivered to the Corporation in writing by the
pledgee, the shareholder shall not have the right to vote the shares so pledged)
until the shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and
thereafter the pledgee or his nominee shall be entitled to vote the shares so
transferred.

resolution by either of them) but in no event shall such number be less than
one. No resolution shall have the effect of shortening the term of any incumbent
director. Directors shall be elected at the annual meeting of shareholders and

to each director at least two (2) days before the meeting, either by personal
delivery, telegram, cablegram, or facsimile. Any director may waive notice of
any meeting. The attendance of a director at any meeting shall constitute a
waiver of notice of such meeting, and a waiver of any and all objections to the
place of meeting, the time of meeting, or the manner in which it was called or
convened, except where a director attends a meeting for the express purpose of
objecting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully
called or convened. The purpose of and the business to be transacted at any
special meeting of the Board of Directors must be specified in the notice or
waiver or notice of such a meeting.

directors present may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further
notice.

Directors.
SECTION 8. INFORMAL ACTION BY DIRECTORS. Any action required to be taken at
a meeting of the Directors of a corporation or any action which may be taken at
such meeting may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting

though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors. A director elected to fill
a vacancy shall be elected for the unexpired term of his predecessor in office

election by the Board of Directors for a term of office continuing until the

SECTION 10. COMPENSATION. Directors may by resolution of the Board of
Directors, establish a fixed sum and expenses of attendance, if any, for

Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor.

purpose, directors may be removed, with or without cause, by a vote of the
majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors.
