PART I
Item 1. Description of Business.
Development of the Company. Fenway International, Inc., a Nevada corporation
("Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 7, 1984 using the
name Nevada-Utah Gold, Inc. for the primary purpose of developing mining
properties. During 1985, we settled our liabilities and were inactive until
1998, when we began acquiring property and mineral interests in anticipation of
developing commercial grade cement production facilities in the Philippines.
Specifically, on or about August 10, 1998, we acquired the assets of Fenway
Resources, Ltd., a Delaware corporation, which assets included property and
mineral interests in the Philippines. We issued 7,644,067 shares of our $.001
par value common stock for the assets acquired. On or about September 4, 1998,
we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation changing
our name to Fenway International, Inc. Our executive offices are located at
308-409 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 1T2. Our
telephone number is 604.844.2265.
Business of the Company. We plan to develop and construct two large commercial
grade cement production facilities in the Philippines. Our
predecessor-in-interest, Fenway Resources, Ltd., spent more than five years
obtaining the necessary licensing, permits and environmental approvals necessary
to support construction of such facilities on the island of Negros Oriental (the
"Negros Project") and we are continuing our efforts to obtain the necessary
licensing, permits and environmental approvals for a proposed facility on the
island of Palawan (the "Palawan Project"). We are required to participate with
local corporations in the Philippines in order to commercially exploit
Philippine mineral claims and, therefore, we have acquired significant ownership
interest in various Philippine corporations. The organizational chart attached
as Exhibit 21 to our Registration Statement on Form 10-SB filed with the
Commission on March 8, 1999 provides a diagram of our relationships with these
entities, which are specified in detail below.
The Negros Project. On or about July 16, 1998, we entered into an option
agreement ("Option Agreement") with Negor RR Cement Corporation, an independent
Philippine corporation, for the purpose of forming and operating a Negros mining
company ("NMC") and a Negros cement manufacturing company ("NCC"). Pursuant to
the Option Agreement, we purchased a 90% equity interest in the Negor RR Cement
Corporation, a Philippine corporation ("Negor Corporation").
The details of the Option Agreement are as follows:
A. For a period of four (4) years following the date of acceptance by us
of a commercial feasibility study and report for the Negros Project,
which study and report are sufficient to enable us to obtain any and
all funds necessary or appropriate to finance the development and
operation of the Negros Project, Negor Corporation has the option to
acquire that number of shares of our $.001 par value common stock
equal to the lesser of (a) two million (2,000,000), or (b) ten percent
(10%) of the then issued and outstanding shares of our common stock,
at a purchase price of Five Dollars ($5.00) per share.
B. NMC shall prepare, sign and deliver to Negor Corporation any and all
documents and other instruments necessary or appropriate to vest in
Negor Corporation an ownership interest in NMC equal to ten percent
(10%) of the total issued and outstanding capital stock of NMC. As a
result of such ownership interest, Negor Corporation shall be entitled
to have allocated to it ten percent (10%) of the net profits, losses
and credits of NMC.
C. NMC shall prepare, sign and deliver to us any and all documents and
other instruments necessary or appropriate to vest in us an ownership
interest in NMC equal to ninety percent (90%) of the total issued and
outstanding capital stock of NMC. As a result of such ownership
interest, we shall be entitled to have allocated to it ninety percent
(90%) of the net profits, losses and credits of NMC.
D. NCC shall prepare, sign and deliver to Negor Corporation any and all
documents and other instruments necessary or appropriate to vest in
Negor Corporation an ownership interest in NCC equal to forty percent
(40%) of the total issued and outstanding capital stock of NMC. As a
result of such ownership interest, Negor shall be entitled to have
allocated to it forty percent (40%) of the net profits, losses and
credits of NCC.
<PAGE>
1. NCC shall prepare, sign and deliver to us any and all documents and
other instruments necessary or appropriate to vest in us an ownership
interest in NCC equal to forty percent (40%) of the total issued and
outstanding capital stock of NMC. As a result of such ownership
interest, we shall be entitled to have allocated to it forty percent
(40%) of the net profits, losses and credits of NCC.
2. NCC shall prepare, sign and deliver to one or more third party
investors any and all documents and other instruments necessary or
appropriate to vest collectively in those third party investors an
ownership interest in NCC equal to twenty percent (20%) of the total
issued and outstanding capital stock of NMC. As a result of such
ownership interest, those third party investors shall be entitled to
have allocated to them, in the aggregate, twenty percent (20%) of the
net profits, losses and credits of NCC.
3. We paid Negor Corporation Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) at the date
of signing of the Option Agreement and Fifty Thousand Dollars
($50,000) on or prior to September 30, 1998, as specified in the
Option Agreement.
At such time as all feasibility studies and similar studies and
reports which are necessary or appropriate for the construction
and operation of the manufacturing facilities (and which will be
required prior to the receipt of the funds to finance
construction of the manufacturing facilities) are completed, NMC
has agreed to pay to Negor One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00)
which funds may be contributions to capital and proceeds from one
or more borrowing transactions, or either of them. In connection
with any and all such borrowing transactions, the acquired claims
may be utilized as collateral or otherwise be pledged to enhance
the credit of the borrower.
The Palawan Project. Fenway Resources, Ltd., as a British Columbia corporation,
acquired mineral rights to 10,296 hectares in 1992 and mineral rights to 3,200
hectares in 1995 in three (3) contiguous claims on the west central portion of
Palawan Island near Scott Point, Municipality of Sofronio Espanola, Palawan, the
Philippines. We believe Scott Point is a good location because it is a seaward
site providing immediate access to marine transport which will allow us to
transport our products at a low cost to various regional markets in the
Philippines and to other regions in Asia.
We believe that these claims have significant reserves of limestone and shale,
the two main ingredients for the manufacture of Type 1 (heavy construction
quality) Portland cement. We retained Kilborn Engineering Pacific Ltd., now
known as Kilborn-SNC Lavolin Inc., to prepare a project feasibility study, which
was completed in 1995. Our management believes that the study supports the
proposed Palawan Project.
The Palawan Project has been under development for more than five years by us,
in association with local mining and development interests in Palawan.
Explorations by the Philippine Government in 1994 first confirmed the existence
of limestone deposits in the central part of the main island of Palawan. The
professional feasibility study by Kilborn-SNC Lavolin, Inc. completed for us in
1995 concluded that the plant and quarries can be developed in full compliance
with environmental regulations in the Philippines and should not have any
adverse effect on local communities. Local communities have expressed strong
support for the Palawan Project, which we believe will stimulate local economic
development and employment. Formal application for certification of the Palawan
Project has been submitted to the Philippine Department of Environment and
Natural Resources. Although the application has not yet been approved,
departmental review has been completed.
In addition to the license application procedures and environmental review
process mandated by the Philippine government, we have conducted discussions
with provincial government officials, with indigenous leaders (specifically,
leaders of the Barangay people), and with local landowners who might be affected
by the Palawan Project. We believe there is local support for the Palawan
Project.
Commercial law in effect on Palawan Island requires the participation of local
entities to exploit the island's mineral resources. Two local corporations have
been created and formally registered in compliance with local commercial law and
securities regulation. We own approximately 40% of Palcan Mining Company ("PMC")
which will be responsible for the quarry properties and the production of
crushed stone, both graded and blended, for cement plant processing
1
<PAGE>
operations. PMC will also be responsible for payments of royalties and fees
based on the volumes of quarried stone extracted for cement production. PMC was
incorporated in the Republic of the Philippines on August 13, 1998, and has
several common directors with us. Specifically, Herbert John Wilson, President
of the Company, is an incorporator and director of PMC. Arthur Leonard Taylor,
Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and a director of the Company, is an
incorporator and director of PMC. Rene E. Cristobel and Carlos A. Fernandez,
directors of the Company, are also incorporators and directors of PMC. Rene E.
Cristobel and Carlos Fernandez each hold 10% or more of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of PMC. We own approximately 90% of a second
Philippine corporation, Palcan Cement Company ("PCC"), which will own and
operate the Palawan cement plant and will be responsible for the marketing and
distribution of our products.
We have also continued to assess the market acceptance for products of the
proposed Palawan plant within the Philippines and in export markets. The ability
to produce cement of high quality and reliable uniformity from local materials
is essential to our success and this ability is currently unproven.
Discussions are currently in progress with several design-build groups to
construct and equip the Palawan plant. We are negotiating with Krupps-Polysius
to provide the cement plant equipment and with Bilfinger & Berger to engineer
and construct the Palawan Project. These negotiations have not been concluded
and there can be no assurance that either Krupps-Polysius or Bilfinger & Berger
will provide equipment or services to us.
We have prepared the following schedule for completion of the Negros Project and
Palawan Project which includes forward looking statements which estimate the
happenings of future events. The actual occurrence of these events may differ
materially from those contemplated by this schedule.

The capital costs of the plants, including the construction of all facilities
such as power and ports, are estimated by our engineering consultants to be
approximately $260 million for the Negros Project and approximately $380 million
for the Palawan Project. To conform to investment guidelines promulgated by the
Philippine government, 70% of those capital costs must be financed by loans,
including export credits, and 30% must be financed by equity investments.
The approximately $450 million required in loans may be provided by a consortium
of German banks. Krupp-Polysius, one of the world's largest corporations,
anticipates supplying the cement plant equipment to both the Negros Project and
the Palawan Project and has offered to assist us in its loan negotiations with
these German banks. We anticipate that approximately $190 million may be
received from a registered offering of our common or preferred stock, probably
through brokerage firms located in New York.
On August 3, 1999, we announced the signing of a Financial Agency Agreement with
First Access Financial Group, Inc., international investment bankers ("First
Access"). First Access has represented to us that it has clients interested in
providing funding to our Philippine cement projects. The Financial Agency
Agreement between us and First Access
2
<PAGE>
is not exclusive and we are currently negotiating with other parties to finance
our proposed commercial grade cement production facilities in the Philippines.
On August 5, 1999, we announced the appointment of Friedhelm Menzel as resident
general manager for our Philippine cement projects. Mr. Menzel was educated in
Germany, specializing in the study of export marketing and linguistics. Mr.
Menzel was export marketing manager for a leading German garment manufacturer
from 1962 to 1967, at which time he joined the German-based multinational
corporation Krupp-Polysius AG, Germany, as Far East Sales Manager. From 1968 to
1994, Mr. Menzel was employed by Krupp-Polysius in various capacities relating
to the manufacture and supply of heavy industrial equipment to clients in India,
the middle east and the far east by Krupp-Polysius from its various plants. From
1995 to July 1999, Mr. Menzel was General Manager of Krupp-Polysius's Philippine
agent, Marsson Industrial Inc., which specialized in the development and
manufacture of cement producing equipment and other heavy industrial equipment
and applications.
Products. We are not currently producing any products or supplying any services
to any third parties. When, and if, we develop and construct our cement
manufacturing facilities, we anticipate producing commercial quantities of
Portland cement. Portland cement is a finely ground processed material that,
when mixed with sand, gravel, water and other minerals, forms concrete. The raw
materials, limestone and shale, are mined, crushed, and burned in
high-temperature rotary kilns, producing a substance commonly referred to as
"clinker". The resulting clinker is then finely ground with small amounts of
gypsum to produce Portland cement. From the Palawan Project, we anticipate
producing 2.5 million metric tonnes of Portland cement per year.
Our products may be subject to numerous foreign government standards and
regulations that are continually being amended. Although we will endeavor to
satisfy foreign technical and regulatory standards, there can be no assurance
that our products will comply with foreign government standards and regulations,
or changes thereto, or that it will be cost effective for us to redesign our
products to comply with such standards or regulations. Our inability to design
or redesign products to comply with foreign standards could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Marketing and Sales. We anticipate that all revenues from the sale of our
products will be derived from customers located outside the United States. To
support our overseas customers, we anticipate operating offices outside the
continental United States. There can be no assurance that we will be able to
manage these operations effectively or that we will be able to compete
successfully in international markets or satisfy the service and support
requirements of its customers. In addition, a significant portion of our sales
and operations are subject to significant risks, including tariffs and other
trade barriers, difficulties in staffing and managing foreign subsidiary and
branch operations, currency exchange risks and exchange controls, potentially
adverse tax consequences, and the possibility of difficulty in accounts
receivable collection. There can be no assurance that any of these factors will
not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
We anticipate that initially the Portland cement produced by the Negros and
Palawan Projects will be marketed exclusively in the Philippines, with expanded
capacity providing cement to foreign markets, such as Japan, South Korea,
Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Vietnam and Indonesia (collectively, the
"Target Countries"). Nearby Asian export markets for cement products have a
current volume exceeding 90 million tonnes per year moving in trade. Entities
that have previously taken most Philippine cement exports have been countries
bordering the South China Sea, those close to the Malacca Straits and other
countries in the South Asia Sub-Continent. Our strategy for growth is
substantially dependent upon our ability to market and distribute products
successfully. Other companies, including those with substantially greater
financial, marketing and sales resources, compete with us, and have the
advantage of marketing existing products with existing production and
distribution facilities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to
market and distribute products on acceptable terms, or at all. Our failure to
market our products successfully could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial conditions or results of operations.
We anticipate that the construction industries in the Target Countries will
experience positive growth, ranging from modest growth expected for Japan, to
more significant growth anticipated in the lesser developed countries, such as
3
<PAGE>
Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines and Indonesia. The location of the Palawan
and the Negros Projects provides easy access to the Target Countries.
Raw Materials. For the Palawan Project, we have acquired mineral rights to
13,496 hectares in three contiguous claims on the west central portion of the
Palawan Island near Scott Point. The claims are underlain by significant
reserves of limestone and shale, the two main ingredients for the manufacture of
Type I Portland cement. Chemical analysis by the Philippine Bureau of Mines and
Geosciences, Technical Services Division, indicates that the site of the Palawan
Project contains commercial quantities of these raw materials.
The Negor Corporation (in which we hold a 90% equity interest) has mineral
claims on the island of Negros Oriental in the Philippines, which include
significant reserves of limestone and shale suitable for the manufacture of
Portland cement. Limestone mineral claims lie near the coastal towns of
Guihulngan and La Libertad on the island of Negros Oriental. Geological studies
suggest that the raw resources on those claims could sustain significant cement
manufacturing operations. We have received an Environmental Compliance
Certificate and has entered into the Mineral Production Sharing Agreement
required by the Philippine government for all mining projects in the Philippines
before mining operations can proceed.
Distribution and Transportation. Distribution in the cement industry is
typically conducted using agency contracts. The agent accepts product in bulk or
bagged from the plant at a specified price. The agent then takes responsibility
for marketing within the region(s) served; for transport and delivery to
customers; and for selling to large-volume customers, retailers or intermediate
wholesalers. The agent marks up the price to cover all costs of distribution.
The final price to consumers at retail accommodates markups as appropriate in
the distribution process. An allowance is included in the markup applied at each
step as profit for product handling and sale.
The Palawan plant will adopt the customary methods typically used in the
Philippines for distribution of cement products, with the following variations:
1. As the Palawan plant will ship to markets in different countries, not
one but several distribution agencies probably will be utilized;
2. Shipments of bagged or bulk product by truck will be for the emerging
market on Palawan;
3. Most products will be shipped from the Palawan plant in bulk by sea to
reach the Target Countries;
4. Transfer of Palawan product from vessels, bulk storage, bagging (as
needed) and distribution by truck will occur within regional markets
in the Target Countries; and,
5. Intra-regional transportation to customers will be minimized by the
locations of regional facilities for the receipt and handling of
Palawan plant products.
Costs of the first water crossing from Palawan to Philippine markets will be
less than typical costs associated with the transport of equivalent tonnage in
bulk by truck from competing plants. Overall, we believe that the costs of
product distribution to Philippine regional markets from the new plant in
Palawan pursuant to agency contracts will be equivalent to similar costs for
competing plants serving the same markets. If necessary to assure entry to
Philippine regional markets, all or part of the costs of the initial water
crossing can be absorbed at the Palawan plant by adjusting the price for product
placed to agents for distribution. Given the cost advantages of marine
transport, this will not be necessary as a general condition, but can be done
where and as needed in special situations.
The Palawan plant is ideally located for export of cement products to regional
markets in the Target Countries. Export sales will be developed and sustained
from the Palawan plant, as a means of broadening market presence, preserving
high utilization of plant assets and pursuing the best combination of available
customer relationships and opportunities for product sales and profits. Direct
relationships with large-volume customers and distribution relationships with
importers will be established in receptive countries, to assure that export
options remain available for the Palawan plant at all times.
We believe that we can provide our products to markets in the Target Countries,
subject to import barriers. Overt barriers have not been present in the
countries where Philippine cement has been accepted in the past, and import
duties
4
<PAGE>
in these and other locations continue to decline. Additional liberalization of
trade in East and South Asia may expand opportunities for general acceptance of
products from the Palawan plant. If necessary in particular situations, entry
may be eased by adjusting prices to absorb some of the costs of marine transport
and import costs. Although not necessary as a general condition, some absorption
of transport costs has been assumed to apply, for purposes of project valuation,
to all products shipped from Palawan.
Employees. We currently have eight full-time employees, three of whom are
salaried. Our management anticipates using consultants for business, accounting,
engineering, and legal services on an as-needed basis. Management has senior
company experience in mine management, mineral processing, engineering,
construction, administration, and marketing. All members of management have held
senior positions in international companies or organizations.
Competition. As a result of the lack of product differentiation and the
commodity nature of cement, the cement industry is quite competitive.
Competition is based generally on price and, to a lesser extent, quality and
service. We may compete with national, international and regional cement
producers in its target markets. Many of our competitors are larger and have
significantly greater resources than us. The prices that we charge our customers
probably won't be materially different from the prices charged by other cement
producers in the same markets. Accordingly, profitability in the cement industry
is generally dependent on the level of cement demand and on a cement producer's
ability to contain operating costs. Prices are subject to material changes in
response to relatively minor fluctuations in supply and demand, general economic
conditions and other market conditions beyond our control. There can be no
assurance that prices will not decline in the future or that such declines will
not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of
operations.
Our anticipated cost per tonne of production will be directly related to the
number of tonnes of cement manufactured; and decreases in production will
increase our fixed cost per tonne. Equipment utilization percentages can vary
from year to year based upon demand for our products or as a result of equipment
failure. Much of our anticipated manufacturing equipment requires significant
time to replace and is very costly to replace or repair. Although we will
attempt to maintain sufficient spare parts to avoid long periods of shutdown in
the event of equipment failure, there can be no assurance such shutdowns can be
avoided.
Compliance with Environmental Laws. The proposed site for the Palawan Project is
near the ancestral lands of a Filipino indigenous people. These lands may
contain a portion of our mineral claims. The risk of accidental contamination or
injury to indigenous peoples from hazardous materials cannot be completely
eliminated. In the event of such an accident, we, or any successor-in-interest,
could be held liable for any damages that result and any such liability could
exceed our financial resources. In addition, there can be no assurance that in
the future we will not be required to incur significant costs to comply with
environmental laws and regulations relating to hazardous materials. There can be
no assurance that we will not be required to incur significant costs to comply
with current or future environmental laws and regulations nor that our
operations, business or assets will not be materially or adversely affected by
current or future environmental laws or regulations; provided, however, that we
have retained SNC Lavalin, a Canadian firm, and GAIA, Inc., a Philippine firm,
to prepare and file the requisite environmental impact statements necessary for
us to receive our Environmental Compliance Certificate for the Palawan Project
(an Environmental Compliance Certificate has already been issued for the Negros
Project).
Our management believes that both the Palawan Project and the Negros Project can
operate cleanly and without significant pollution in an environmentally safe
manner. However, certain environmental consequences associated with mining are
unavoidable. The primary environmental damage from the mineral industry occurs
during the extraction of raw materials, which requires large amounts of water
and energy. We believe that with the utilization of modern technology and
careful planning we can significantly reduce the environmental impact of the
manufacturing of cement. As we are not presently manufacturing any products, our
management believes we will not have any significant material expenditures in
the next fiscal year related to the cost of compliance with applicable
environmental laws, rules and regulations. However, at some time in the future,
our operations may involve the controlled use of hazardous materials. As a
result, we may be subject to various laws and regulations governing the use,
manufacture, storage, handling, and disposal of such materials and certain waste
products. We cannot presently estimate the potential costs of complying with the
applicable foreign environmental laws.

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par
value, each share of common stock having equal rights and preferences, including
voting privileges. As of December 31, 1999, 20,037,141 shares of the Company's
common stock were issued and outstanding.
The shares of $.001 par value common stock of the Company constitute equity
interests in the Company entitling each shareholder to a pro rata share of cash
distributions made to shareholders, including dividend payments. The holders of
the Company's common stock are entitled to one vote for each share of record on
all matters to be voted on by shareholders. There is no cumulative voting with
respect to the election of directors of the Company or any other matter, with
the result that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voted for the
election of those directors can elect all of the Directors. The holders of the
Company's common stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if
declared by the Company's Board of Directors from funds legally available
therefor; provided, however, that cash dividends are at the sole discretion of
the Company=s Board of Directors. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Company, the holders of common stock are entitled to share
ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment
of liabilities of the Company and after provision has been made for each class
of stock, if any, having preference in relation to the Company's common stock.
Holders of the shares of Company's common stock have no conversion, preemptive
or other subscription rights, and there are no redemption provisions applicable
to the Company's common stock.
Dividend Policy. We have never declared or paid a cash dividend on our capital
stock and do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the
foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain our earnings, if any, for use
in our business. Any dividends declared in the future will be at the discretion
of the Board of Directors and subject to any restrictions that may be imposed by
our lenders.

ANY OF THE ASSUMPTIONS RELATING TO THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS SPECIFIED IN
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION ARE ACCURATE, AND WE ASSUME NO OBLIGATION TO UPDATE
ANY SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.
Results of Operations. We have not yet realized any revenue from operations, as
our cement manufacturing facilities are presently in the development stage.
Liquidity and Capital Resources. At December 31, 1999, we had cash resources of
$21,926 and a loan receivable of $90,811. Employment agreements with H. John
Wilson and A. Leonard Taylor obligate us to payments totaling $5,850 per month:
$3,250 to Mr. Wilson and $2,600 to Mr. Taylor. An Employment agreement with R.
George Muscroft obligates us to payment of $3,250 per quarter to Mr. Muscroft.
The cash and equivalents constitute our present internal sources of liquidity.
Because we are not generating any revenues at this time from our operations, our
only external source of liquidity is the sale of our capital stock. We are
attempting to acquire funding for both the Palawan Project and the Negros
Project from German financial institutions with assistance from Marsson
Industrial Corporation, which is the Philippine affiliate of Krupp-Polysius, a
German machinery manufacturing, engineering, trading and financial services
company. Krupp-Polysius has agreed to help us arrange the export credits and the
required loan guaranties for the loans required for both projects.
Our Plan of Operation For Next 12 Months. We presently anticipate that initial
construction on the Palawan Project will begin in the fourth quarter of year
2000, with production of cement beginning in 2002. The Palawan Project, if
completed pursuant to our current schedule, will be the only cement
manufacturing facility on Palawan Island. We anticipate that the Negros Project
will consist of a cement producing facility capable of producing 1.5 million
tonnes per year of Portland cement with expansion capacity to 3 million tonnes
per year. We have solicited and received bids for an exploratory drilling
program, pursuant to which we hope to confirm the extent of limestone reserves
on Negor Corporation's Negros Oriental Province mineral claims in the central
islands of the Philippines. On June 9, 1999, we announced that we had signed a
contract with Roctest Machinery and Drilling Corporation to core drill 2,000
meters for test sampling of the limestone deposits at the Negros Project. The
core drilling will commence as soon as we obtain the necessary regional work
licenses and permits.
Our success is materially dependent upon our ability to satisfy additional
financing requirements. We are reviewing our options to raise substantial equity
capital. We cannot personally estimate when we will begin to realize positive
gross revenue. In order to satisfy our requisite budget, management has held and
continues to conduct negotiations with various investors. We anticipate that
these negotiations will result in additional investment income for us. To
achieve and maintain competitiveness, we may be required to raise additional
substantial funds. We anticipate that we will need to raise significant capital
to develop, promote and conduct its operations. Such capital may be raised
through public or private financing as well as borrowing and other sources.
There can be no assurance that funding for our operations will be available
under favorable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be
required to curtail operations significantly or to obtain funds by entering into
arrangements with collaborative partners or others that may require us to
relinquish rights to certain products and services that we would not otherwise
relinquish.
Foreign Currencies. Currency risks and fluctuations in exchange rates are an
important consideration for lenders and investors. We anticipate that many of
our transactions will involve the use of the Philippine Peso, the official
currency of the Philippines. In 1998, the Philippine Peso was volatile, as were
the currencies of the Target Countries. From January to October 1999, the
Philippine Peso and the currencies of the Target Countries strengthened
considerably in comparison to a similar period in 1998. Even if we are able to
obtain all funds necessary to finance the development and operation of the
Palawan Project and the Negros Project, and a commercially viable amount of
Portland cement can be produced, there can be no assurance that foreign
currencies and exchange rates will remain stable and that we will be profitable.
The exchange rates of the Philippine Peso and the currencies of the Target
Countries could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
position and results of operation.

<PAGE>
Manufacturing Our Products. Our present business plan, which is subject to the
availability of financing, weather conditions, the political climate in the
Philippines, and other factors beyond our control, anticipates the completion of
construction of both the Palawan Project and the Negros Project in or before the
year 2002. Assuming completion of the two facilities, we may be the largest
manufacturer of cement in the Philippines.
Impact of the Year 2000. The Year 2000 (commonly referred to as "Y2K") issue
results from the fact that many computer programs were written using two, rather
than four, digits to identify the applicable year. As a result, computer
programs with time-sensitive software may recognize a two digit code for any
year in the next century as related to this century. For example, "00", entered
in a date-field for the year 2000, may be interpreted as the year 1900,
resulting in system failures or miscalculations and disruptions of operations,
including, among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions or
engage in other normal business activities. Although companies and governments
in the United States spent an estimated $150 billion to $225 billion repairing
the problem, countries like Russia and China, which spent relatively minor
amounts, seemed to clear the New Year's Day hurdle with equal success. Major
news media in the United States are reporting that, after years of work and
billions of dollars spent repairing the Year 2000 computer glitch, the
technological tranquility of New Year's Day has raised a new concern that the
United States overreacted to this problem. Although it is still too soon to
conclude positively that the Y2K transition has passed without mishap, we
believe that Y2K issues will not have a material adverse affect on our business.
Changes in Number of Employees. During the next 12 months, depending on the
success of our market expansion plan, we may be required to hire additional
employees; however, we are not able to provide a reasonable estimate of the
number of such additional employees which may be required at this time.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Fenway International Inc.
Newport Beach, California
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Fenway International Inc. (A
Nevada Corporation) as of December 31, 1999, and the related statements of
comprehensive (loss), operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash
flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
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
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 referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects the financial position of Fenway International Inc. as of
December 31, 1999 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
year then ended, 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 2 to the
financial statements, the Company has incurred $1,030,580 of development costs
and is still developing its cement operations. These conditions raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans regarding this matter also are described in Note 18. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

FENWAY INTERNATIONAL INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Nature of Business
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May
7, 1984 for the primary purpose of developing mineral properties. During
1985, the Company abandoned its remaining assets and settled its
liabilities and was inactive until 1998. In 1998, the Company became active
again by acquiring mineral properties in the Republic of the Philippines.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major renewals and improvements
are charged to the asset accounts while replacements, maintenance and
repairs, which do not improve or extend the lives of respective assets, are
expensed. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise
disposed of, the assets and related depreciation accounts are relieved of
the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are
credited or charged to income.
The Company depreciates its property and equipment for financial reporting
purposes using the accelerated methods based upon an estimated useful life
of five years.
Accounting Estimates
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those
estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the
reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the
estimates that were used.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes on an asset and liability approach to
financial accounting. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are
computed annually for the difference between the financial statements and
tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or
deductible amounts in the future, based on enacted tax laws and rates
applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect
taxable income.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Income Taxes (Continued)
Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax
assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax
payable or refundable for the period, plus or minus the change during the
period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The Company intends to reinvest its undistributed international earnings to
expand its international operations; therefore, no tax will be provided to
cover the repatriation of such future undistributed earnings.
Compensated Absences
Employees of the corporation are entitled to paid vacations, sick days and
other time off depending on job classification, length of service and other
factors. It is impractical to estimate the amount of compensation for
future absences, and accordingly, no liability has been recorded in the
accompanying financial statements. The corporation's policy is to recognize
the costs of compensated absences when paid to employees.
Net Loss Per Share
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128
that requires the reporting of both basic and diluted earnings per share.
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to
common shareowners by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the
potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to
issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. In
accordance with FASB 128, potentially dilutive warrants and options that
would have an anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share are excluded.
Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company has financial instruments, none of which are held for trading
purposes. The Company estimates that the fair value of all financial
instruments at December 31, 1999 as defined in FASB 107, does not differ
materially from the aggregate carrying values of its financial instruments
recorded in the accompanying balance sheet. The estimated fair value
amounts have been determined by the Company using available market
information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgement
is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair
value, and accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the
amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Long-Lived Assets
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
Of," requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the
asset in question may not be recoverable. This standard did not have a
material effect on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or
financial position.
International Currency Translation
For translation of its international currencies, the Company has determined
that the local currencies of its international subsidiaries are the
functional currencies.
NOTE 2 DEVELOPMENT STAGE OPERATIONS
As of December 31, 1999, the Company was in the development stage of
operations. According to the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the
Financial Accounting Foundation, a development stage Company is defined as
a company that devotes most of its activities to establishing a new
business activity. In addition, planned principle activities have not
commenced, or have commenced and have not yet produced significant revenue.
FAS-7 requires that all development costs be expensed during the
development period. The Company expensed $623,196 of development costs for
the year ended December 31, 1999 and $1,030,580 from May 7, 1984 (date of
inception) to December 31, 1999.

At December 31, 1999 the Company had a stock-based compensation plan under
which options were granted to employees and outside directors. The Company
measures the compensation cost for these plans using the intrinsic value
method of accounting prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25 (Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees). Given the terms of the Company's plans, no
compensation cost has been recognized for its stock option plan.
The Company's reported net (loss) and (loss) per share would have been
increased had compensation cost for the Company's stock-based compensation
plan been determined using the fair value method of accounting as set forth
in SFAS No. 123 (Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation). For purposes of
estimating the fair value disclosures below, the fair value of each stock
option has been estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%;
expected volatility of 50%; risk-free interest rate 6.75%; and expected
lives of five years.
Had compensation costs for the Company's plan been determined based on the
fair value at the grant date consistent with the method of FASB Statement
123, the Company's net income and earnings per share would have been as
indicated below:

PART III
Item 9. Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons.
Executive Officers and Directors. We are dependent on the efforts and abilities
of certain of our senior management. The interruption of the services of key
management could have a material adverse effect on our operations, profits and
future development, if suitable replacements are not promptly obtained. We
anticipate that we will enter into employment agreements with each of our key
executives; however, no assurance can be given that each executive will remain
with us during or after the term of his or her employment agreement. In
addition, our success depends, in part, upon our ability to attract and retain
other talented personnel. Although we believe that our relations with our
personnel are good and that we will continue to be successful in attracting and
retaining qualified personnel, there can be no
10
<PAGE>
assurance that we will be able to continue to do so. All officers and directors
of the Company will hold office until their resignation or removal.

Pursuant to the terms of the Wilson Agreement, Mr. Wilson is entitled to
compensation in the amount of $400,000 per year, commencing September 1, 1995.
Despite the terms of the Wilson Agreement, Mr. Wilson has only received $3,250
per month from the Company and has agreed to defer all other compensation
payable to him until the Company's board of directors deems it appropriate to
pay Mr. Wilson the full amount of the compensation and benefits required

Mr. Wilson is also entitled to reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses and
rights and benefits pursuant to any profit sharing, deferred compensation, stock
appreciation rights, stock option or other plans or programs adopted by the
Company, if any, comparable to rights and benefits pursuant to such plans and

On September 1, 1995, Fenway Resources Ltd., a British Columbia corporation,

Agreement"), pursuant to which Mr. Taylor agreed to act as that corporation's

entered into an employment agreement with R. George Muscroft (the "Muscroft
Agreement"), pursuant to which Mr. Muscroft agreed to act as that corporation's

payable to him until the

<PAGE>
Company's board of directors deems it appropriate to pay Mr. Muscroft the full

with Mr. Muscroft was assumed by us and provides for, among other things, a
payment to Mr. Muscroft of $3,250, payable quarterly. The employment agreement
supersedes a previous consulting agreement and is attached to our Amendment No.1
to Form 10-SB as exhibit 10.5.
Palcan Mining Corporation ("PMC"), was incorporated in the Republic of the
Philippines on August 13, 1998, and has several common directors with the
Company. Specifically, Herbert John Wilson, President of the Company, is an
incorporator and director of PMC. Arthur Leonard Taylor, Chief Financial
Officer, Secretary and a director of the Company, is an incorporator and
director of PMC. Rene E. Cristobel and Carlos A. Fernandez, directors of the
Company, are also incorporators and directors of PMC. Rene E. Cristobel is also
the President of PMC and owns 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of common
stock of PMC which will be voted in favor of the Company. Fenway Resources Ltd.
paid 398,000 Philippine Pesos for 398 shares of PMC which equals 39.8% of the
issued and outstanding shares of common stock of PMC.
The primary purpose of PMC is to hold the mineral claims of Central Palawan
Mining & Industrial Corp. ("CPMIC"), Palawan Star Mining Ventures Inc. ("PSMVI")
and Pyramid Hill Mining & Industrial Corp. ("PHMIC"), their respective Mineral
Production Sharing Agreements, Environmental Compliance Certificates, quarry
shale and limestone, and any other commercial minerals found on these claims.
Moreover, PMC shall buy, sell, exchange or otherwise produce and deal in all
kinds of minerals, as well as purchase, lease, option, locate or otherwise
acquire, own, exchange, sell, assign or contract out the property and the
operation of the property; or otherwise dispose of, pledge, mortgage, deed in
trust, hypothecate and deal in mining claims, land related to production from
the mining claims, timber lands, water, and water rights and other property,
both real and personal.
We lent $80,000 to CPMIC, PSMVI and PHMIC on September 6, 1995. This loan
accrues interest at 7% per annum from the date of signing until repaid in full.
The loan is repayable out of future royalty payments due to CPMIC after the
start-up of operations.
The balance of the loan presently totals $89,411.
By a letter amendment agreement dated March 21, 1997, all prior agreements
between successors-in-interests to the Company and CPMIC, PSMVI, and PHMIC were
amended to provide, among other things, that (i) a Joint Venture Mining Company
("JVMC") would be established; (ii) CPMIC, PSMVI and PHMIC (collectively, the
"Consortium") would not have any equity interest in the JVMC, and each member
would sign and waive all right to own and subscribe to the shares of the JVMC;
(iii) 10% of the net profits of the JVMC would be paid to the Consortium as
consideration for the transfer of their respective interests in each of the
properties, including the mining claims; (iv) royalty payments applicable to raw
materials quarried or mined from property belonging individually to CPMIC, PSMVI
and PHMIC would be waived and surrendered by each member of the Consortium in
favor of the Consortium; and (v) the properties, consisting of mining claims,
the Mineral Production Sharing Agreement, the Environmental Compliance
Certificate, and all rights, title and interest thereto, would be transferred by
each member of the Consortium to the JVMC.
We have also agreed to pay the Consortium $100,000 as an advance payment which
will be deducted from the royalties payable to the Consortium. The agreement
also specifies that JVMC is to advance $100,000 to each member of the Consortium
each year, payable pro rata in quarterly payments, as advance royalty payments
to be deducted from the royalties of $0.35 per tonne of raw material used in the
manufacture of cement from the properties. Advance royalty payments shall cease
upon commencement of commercial production of any one of the properties of the
Consortium.
The agreement also specifies that a joint venture cement manufacturing company
("JVCC") will be formed for the development of the Palawan Cement Project to
manufacture cement and related cement products and that 10% interest in the net
profits of the JVCC shall be allocated to the Consortium from the interest of
the Company in the JVCC.
