ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Background
AimRite Holdings Corporation (the "Company") is a Nevada
corporation formed as Q-Com Corp. on September 6, 1988. Its
principal place of business is located at 225 Stevens Avenue,
Suite 104, Solana Beach, CA 92075. On March 31, 1995, the Company
issued 1,750,000 shares of common stock to acquire Drink World,
Inc. On April 10, 1995, the Company amended its Articles of
Incorporation changing its name to Drink World, Inc. On July 12,
1995, the acquisition of Drink World was cancelled and the stock
was returned and cancelled. On July 21, 1995, the Company changed
its name to AimRite Holdings Corporation (AHC) under new
management and ownership. The formation of AHC was for the
purpose of exploiting and manufacturing the COAST (Computer
Optimized Adaptive Suspension Technology) system through a master
license from a formerly-owned subsidiary, AimRite Systems
International, Inc. ("ASI")
The founders were issued 1,000,000 common shares collectively at
a par value of $0.01. On December 31, 1994, the Company had
1,000,000 Common Shares of $0.01 par value voting stock issued
and outstanding. The Restated Articles of Incorporation filed on
April 10, 1995, also authorized the Company to issue 50,000,000
shares of Common Stock with a par value of $0.001 per share, and
10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock with a par value of $0.001
per share.
In 1995, the Company's stock underwent a 2:1 forward stock split.
An additional 8,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock was
issued to acquire an 80% interest in ASI. The Company then
authorized a 1:20 reverse stock split. An additional 21,060,000
shares of common stock were issued to pay debts of the
corporation and its subsidiaries. A total of 666,000 shares were
issued for services or for cash. In 1997, the Company issued
approximately 442,000 shares in exchange for cash, an additional
1,054,275 shares for consulting services performed, and 2,000,000
shares for a licensing agreement for its current product offering
(see below). During 1998, the Company issued in excess of
8,500,000 shares of common stock pursuant to Rule 504 of
Regulation D, and an additional 6,000,000 shares to reduce debt.
Total common shares issued and outstanding as of May 27, 1999 is
28,957,605 of which 17,700,004 shares are restricted.
On February 12 1997, the Company spun-off ASI. In conjunction
with this transaction, the Company acquired the rights to the
patents and technology for a computer-controlled shock absorber
system and a computer-controlled air suspension system from ASI
which had acquired the systems from Advanced Suspension
Technology, Inc. (AST). AHC acquired all of the assets, except
patents, and all of the liabilities of ASI, by returning
1,105,080 shares of ASI stock to acquire a master marketing
agreement and 426,548 shares for a master license to use the
patents.
Through an International Licensing and Consulting Agreement (the
"Agreement"), between KENMAR Company Trust and AHC dated February
25, 1997, KENMAR obtained ownership to several patents [see
"Exhibit 10.1, paragraph 1(a)]. KENMAR appointed AHC as its non-
exclusive master licensee [see "Exhibit 10.1, paragraph 2(a)].
For grant of the licensing rights, AHC transferred 1,700,000
shares of stock in AimRite Systems International, Inc. and
2,000,000 shares of stock in AHC. In further consideration for
the grant of license, for each sale defined in paragraph 1(d),
KENMAR is entitled to receive 8% of the Company price defined in
paragraph 1(c) [see "Exhibit 10.1, paragraph 3(a)]. Note: The
major stock holder of the Company is also the major stockholder
of AST and ASI, and the trustee for KENMAR.
AimRite has a website that can be visited at www.aimrite.com.
Business of Issuer
AimRite Holdings Corporation (AHC), through a master license,
holds the worldwide patent rights to a revolutionary computer
controlled suspension system called Computer-Optimized Adaptive
Suspension Technology (COAST). This powerful system can adjust
and control up to nine dynamic suspension parameters on all
wheels of any land surface vehicle over 400 times per second. The
Company is divided into two separate divisions. One division, the
COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY DIVISION, supplies computer hardware and
software and the other, the AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS DIVISION, supplies
electronically controlled hydraulic components and systems. This
organization allows the Company to better apply technology and
resources to automotive, transportation, industrial and
commercial markets.
The COAST concept was born in 1985. The theory of operation was
presented at a major automotive conference in Michigan and later
published in the November 1985 issue of IEEE Transactions on
Industrial Electronics. By 1987, some simple hydraulic test
devices had been developed and several patents had been issued
that covered the fundamental principals of the system.
The COAST system provides performance comparable to active
systems without the need for pumps or high speed servovalves. The
performance is achieved utilizing inexpensive hardware similar to
that required for passive systems. It is common to find complex
hardware additions on active systems, but with COAST there are no
pumps, hoses, servovalves, or complex sensory feedback units.
COAST calculates and responds in milliseconds with comfort,
balance, and strength reacting to situations impossible for
conventional shocks to endure. The hardware, located at each
wheel, consists of a damper, two solenoid valves, and a position
sensor. A single computer at each wheel that controls response
and transmits power is connected by wire to a central controller.
This computer can be mounted anywhere aboard the vehicle. In
appearance, it could be mistaken for a small car stereo amplifier
yet can power the entire hardware system using less wattage.
The products that will be sold by AHC consist of a growing line
of suspension systems adapted to fit on various automotive
applications (vehicles). All of the products will use the COAST
technology. Management believes that COAST is the most powerful
suspension system ever offered to the automotive industry with
hardware similar to that required for passive systems.
A COAST system consists of four electronically adjustable
hydraulic control units ( 6 for a bus), all connected to a
powerful computer controller. Each hydraulic control unit has an
integral position sensor that reports the exact position of the
wheel in hundredths of an inch to the controller 400 times per
second. The controller then determines the optimum force for
every wheel and sends a signal to each unit specifying the
desired force, also 400 times per second. Each unit then
generates that force, ranging from over 1,000 pounds for the SUV
system to over 5,000 pounds for the bus/truck/RV system. Each
system also includes a simple control panel near the driver that
allows for ride comfort adjustment of the suspension, and
identifies any problems or failures for quick repair. There is
also an optional air spring control module that controls the ride
height and automatic leveling to gravity for overnight camping
for vehicles that have air suspensions (bus & RV).
The COAST system is totally automatic, continuously monitoring
and controlling the vehicle's ride performance to provide soft
and stable ride characteristics at all times. The COAST
suspension system can be configured to any specific land surface
transportation vehicle model such as cars, trucks, buses and
agricultural equipment. COAST adjusts and controls up to nine
dynamic areas of a vehicle's suspension 400 times per second.
COAST, through its unique computer controlled adaptive suspension
technology, adjusts and controls any land vehicle's suspension to
simultaneously provide luxury ride and handling for highway and
for off-road conditions. The nine parameters of vehicle motion
are:
1. Roll: refers to the tilt sideways of a vehicle when
cornering.
2. Pitch: refers to the tilt forward or backward when vehicle
is braking, cornering, or accelerating.
3. Sprung Natural Frequency (SNF): refers to the tendency of
the vehicle to oscillate on the springs when started in motion.
The spring rate and vehicle weight determines the natural
frequency of motion, typically about 1 Hz.
4. Unsprung Natural Frequency (UNF): refers to the tendency of
the wheel to oscillate between the spring and the road surface
when started in motion. The spring rate and wheel axle weight
determines the natural frequency of motion, typically about 10
Hz.
5. Stored Energy (SE): the energy stored in a spring when
compressed. For the purposes of COAST, it refers to the energy in
a suspension spring when it has been compressed beyond its normal
position such as when a vehicle enters a steep driveway. The
wheels compress upwards toward the chassis when hitting the ramp
and release that energy by causing the front of the vehicle to
rise sharply and the rear to squat downward. Because the rear has
been lowered it has less than normal clearance when it hits the
same ramp.
6. Pumping Down (PD): refers to a situation when the shock
absorber compression forces during rapid wheel movements are less
than the rebound force such that the net or total resulting force
on the chassis is predominantly downward, thereby overpowering
the spring force and pulling the chassis lower to the ground so
that there may be sufficient clearance and bottoming out occurs.
7. Bottoming Out (BO): this refers to the condition where a
bump or other influence on the chassis or wheel causes the axle
to try to rise toward the chassis closer than it can physically,
that is, to exceed the dynamic range of the travel of suspension.
This can cause a severe jolt to the passengers and possibly
damage the shock absorber or suspension.
8. Topping Out (TO): this refers to the condition where a hole
or other influence on the chassis or wheel causes the axle to try
to fall away from the chassis further that it can physically,
that is, to exceed the dynamic range of the travel of the
suspension. This can cause a severe jolt to the passengers and
possibly damage the shock absorber or suspension.
9. Height Control (HC): this refers to the adjustment of the
overall average height of the chassis above the road surface. It
is accomplished by changing the air pressure in air springs (if
used in the suspension).
The standard COAST suspension control system consists of
sophisticated computer controlled hydraulic suspension units that
optimally control all the dynamic characteristics of a vehicle
suspension such as roll, pitch, sprung and unsprung frequencies,
etc. COAST can also control the air springs and provide several
powerful features if a vehicle incorporates an air spring
suspension system. Conventional air spring control methods use
mechanical leveling valves to maintain the chassis at a given
ride height (for towing, variable loads, etc.). If overnight park
leveling is desired, additional heavy & expensive hydraulic
systems are required. Even when air spring based park leveling
systems are used, there is no means to keep the chassis and
prevent it from moving on the springs by using its new exclusive
Motion Lock Technology T. This new feature relates to the motor
home and tour coach industries.
ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATION
NOTE REGARDING PROJECTIONS AND FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This statement includes projections of future results and
"forward-looking statements" as that term is defined in Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the "Securities
Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as
amended (the "Exchange Act"). All statements that are included in
this Registration Statement, other than statements of historical
fact, are forward-looking statements. Although Management
believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking
statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such
expectations will prove to have been correct. Important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
expectations are disclosed in this Statement, including, without
limitation, in conjunction with those forward-looking statements
contained in this Statement.
The initial distribution strategy will be to begin sales of the
COAST product in markets that have not seen an influx of new
products, but whose products are generating profit. The
automotive after-market looks for new products that have the
ability to generate high profit margins. Management believes that
the COAST system fills these needs. There are currently no
computer controlled suspensions available for any automotive
after-market applications and thousands of dealer distributors
looking for this type of product. As a new product, the COAST
suspension system will initially have a high sticker price due to
low volumes, so the marketing strategy must be constructed
carefully in the beginning. There are three types of `volume'
customers that AimRite can focus on before the final consumer.
1. Direct OEM - AHC has started developing the Original
Equipment Manufacturing (OEM) business for the COAST system with
high-end vehicles. These vehicles consist of luxury buses,
motorhomes and heavy duty trucks. These sales will involve
shipping systems direct to the OEM factories, representing the
simplest distribution requirements. Although no formal agreements
have been signed, AimRite has two customers in this category
already waiting for product. The Company will broaden this market
by attending trade shows, making personal sales contacts with
demonstrations, and publishing articles in trade publications.
2. OEM/Independent Customizers - These manufacturers offer
special options, such as Chevrolet's Z71 Off-Road package which
includes Bilstein shocks with special tire and wheel packages,
and Ford's Eddie Bauer limited edition truck package. In
addition, custom vehicle outfitters will be utilized. These
businesses custom-build special sport utility vehicles, heavy
duty trucks and buses that can cost twice as much as the factory
vehicle. Two major companies who upgrade the Chevrolet Suburban
for a cost of $75,000 and up have expressed an interest in COAST
.
3. Retail & Others - In addition to the OEM customers, AimRite
is developing a program for the new & used auto dealerships,
along with parts stores, to install the COAST system on used
buses, motorhomes and heavy duty trucks. AimRite will also be
exploiting traditional automotive distribution channels
worldwide, which include national chain stores, new car and truck
dealerships, high performance automotive dealers and
distributors, military, motorhome dealers (new and used),
specialty shops, etc.
During the development of the automotive after-market for COAST
in the SUV, motorhome, truck and bus industries, AHC will be
preparing to enter a much larger market with a simplified version
of the COAST system that is currently under development. The cost
of this simplified system will be about 80% of the full system,
with only a small reduction in performance. Since this
performance loss applies primarily to the off-road and high
performance markets, the impact will be minimal. More
importantly, the new system is smaller and more easily applied to
the remainder of the automotive market.
AimRite will be developing similar strategies for related damped
suspensions, such as seats on farm tractors and in luxury cars. A
large maker of tractor seats and a maker of high performance
luxury automotive seats have talked with AHC and expressed
interest in developing potential products.
Most of the major vehicle manufacturers currently offer computer
controlled suspension systems, none of which compares to the
power of COAST's unique technology, performance and competitive
cost of production - all of which are covered by powerful
hardware and software patent protection. COAST is positioned to
be the first supplier of computer controlled suspension systems
to the automotive after-market. There are very few industry
participants in this field because it is so new. The major
automobile manufacturers have been developing computer controlled
suspension systems for their luxury vehicles and some other major
manufacturers of after-market suspension components have
prototype systems that are proprietary and have yet to appear as
viable commercial systems. In general, most of the participants
are major manufacturers that are focused on their own high-end
vehicles. The after-market has generally been ignored.
COAST currently has no direct competition due to its power,
competitive cost, and both OEM and AFTER-MARKET applications.
There are now and have been some active and semi-active
suspension systems on high-end OEM luxury cars (e.g. Cadillac,
Lincoln, Infiniti, etc.), but there are no after-market computer-
controlled suspensions systems. Although the Company's business
plan initially targets speciality and after-market vehicles,
COAST is equally useable on standard vehicles, such as the Ford
Taurus and Buick Century. Most importantly, the COAST system
would likely offer significantly improved performance over the
current OEM systems.
The closest competitor in the after-market is a system developed
by Hyrad Corporation and sold through Rancho Suspensions, a
subsidiary of Tenneco. It consists of 4 manually adjustable
shocks connected to a control box on the dashboard. There is no
computer or intelligence of any kind. The driver must manually
turn a knob to change the damping characteristics from soft to
harsh. Officers of Hyrad have contacted us to explore the
possible application of the COAST controller and algorithms to a
new damper they are developing.
The COAST system will initially be manufactured by using outside
vendors to build all machined parts, components, circuit boards,
cables, etc. AHC will perform final assembly, packaging and
shipping of the product. As the production volume increases, more
of the fabrication work will be brought `in-house' to lower the
cost and increase the market share. How fast production capacity
is moved inside will largely depend on the availability of
capital for acquisition of the required equipment and facilities.
The Company has already developed an extensive customer base
waiting for the availability of COAST suspension systems. AHC
will be installing a COAST system on a number of vehicles
supplied by the customer base for evaluation of the COAST
technology, including the following:
General Motors Corporation
Visteon Automotive Systems (Ford)
Tenneco Automotive (Monroe)
Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation
Oshkosh Truck Corporation
National Automotive Center (Military)
The COAST system is covered by very strong patents that will
provide for a 17-20 year lock down on the technology. AHC,
through its master license, will control the U.S. and Foreign
issued patents. These patents are related to computer controlled
suspension systems, dampers, positions switches, or vehicle
leveling and height control used on automobiles, trucks, and
motor coaches. Further, there are international applications
designating numerous countries (including the U.S.). Licensing
agreements exist that provide for minimal royalty payments on the
technology and are reflected on financial sheets.
The current staffing is very lean, being composed of a small
number of officers and directors working with a variety of key
consultants, subcontracting facilities and machine shops. As
production and sales increase, full time personnel and staff will
be acquired to best grow with the company.
Risk Factors
The Company's business is subject to numerous risk factors,
including the following:
CHANGES IN THE TRANSPORTATION VEHICLE INDUSTRY. The
transportation vehicle business in general, and the vehicle
suspension business in particular, are under going significant
changes, primarily due to technological advances. These advances
have resulted in the availability of alternative types of vehicle
suspensions such as Mazda's electronically controlled hydraulic
shock absorbers, the Lotus hydraulic servo system, and Ford's
automatic load leveler. Nissan-Infiniti offers an extremely
complicated system consisting of pumps, hydraulic actuators,
various force and height measuring sensors, and a sophisticated
computer to control everything. Some models of Cadillac have a
new suspension called Road Sensing System (RSS) which
incorporates fast-acting hydraulic solenoid valves, position
sensors, accelerometers and a computer module. It is impossible
to accurately predict the impacts that these and other new
technological developments may have on the vehicle suspension
industry.
RISKS OF VEHICLE SUSPENSION PRODUCTION. Many of the factors which
may affect the Company and its affairs are subject to change or
are not within the control of the Company, and the extent to
which such factors could restrict the activities or adversely
affect the viability of the Company or the value of its holdings
are not currently ascertainable.
GENERAL PRODUCTION RISKS. There is a general risk that commercial
production and marketing of vehicle suspension systems will never
commence. Production risks include delays, death or termination
of key personnel, cost overruns and defects in components or
production equipment. Delays may be caused by labor disputes,
defective production equipment, incompetent personnel, or design
flaws. Cost overruns may occur if there are cost changes, design
changes, uninsured losses from causes such as natural disasters
or delays in production, or other unplanned expenses. Each
vehicle suspension production model is different, and past
performance is no guarantee of future success. Though the Company
has taken every precaution to assure commercially successful
production and marketing, circumstances could arise which would
overcome its ability to complete and/or deliver the vehicle
suspension systems.
Some categories of personnel who may be involved in the Company's
projects may also be members of guilds or unions, which bargain
collectively with vehicle suspension system manufacturers on an
industry-wide basis from time to time. Any work stoppages or
other labor difficulties could delay the production of the
vehicle suspension systems, resulting in increased production
costs and delayed returns to Investors. The Company does not
anticipate hiring any guild or union personnel.
REGULATORY FACTORS. The Company is regulated with respect to the
offer and sale of its securities by federal and state statutes
and governmental regulatory bodies, including the SEC and state
securities regulatory bodies. Compliance with the complex laws
and regulations governing the business of the Company is
difficult, expensive, and time-consuming and requires significant
managerial supervision.
If trading were to be halted by any regulatory agency, the
Company's ability to complete its capitalization may be totally
restricted.
Additionally, failure to comply with such laws and regulations
could result in material adverse effect on the Company. Further,
any changes in any of these laws and regulations could result in
a material adverse effect on the Company.
ITEM 3. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.

ITEM 10. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
During 1998, the Company sold a total of 8,535,010 shares of
common stock for a total consideration of $250,000 plus services
valued at $3,826,160 and issued 6,000,000 shares in payment of a
loan. All issuances were made in reliance upon exemptions from
registration provided by section 4 of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended.
During 1999, the Company sold a total of 2,000,000 shares of
common stock for a total consideration of $500,000. This sale was
made pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by
Regulation D, Rule 504. Additionally, a total of 279,640 shares
of Series A Preferred Stock were sold for total consideration of
$536,000, pursuant to exemption provided by section 4 of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
ITEM 11. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.
Common Stock
The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorizes the issuance
of 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share,
of which 28,957,605 were issued and outstanding as of May 27,
1999. The shares are non-assessable, without pre-emptive rights,
and do not carry cumulative voting rights. Holders of common
shares are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to
be voted on by the stockholders. The shares are fully paid, non-
assessable, without pre-emptive rights, and do not carry
cumulative voting rights. Holders of common shares are entitled
to share ratably in dividends, if any, as may be declared by the
Company from time-to-time, from funds legally available. In the
event of a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the
Company, the holders of shares of common stock are entitled to
share on a pro-rata basis all assets remaining after payment in
full of all liabilities.
Preferred Stock
The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorizes the issuance
of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per
share. The Company's Board of Directors has the authority,
without action by the shareholders, to issue all or any portion
of the authorized but unissued preferred stock in one or more
series and to determine the voting rights, preferences as to
dividends and liquidation, conversion rights, and other rights of
such series. The preferred stock, if and when issued, may carry
rights superior to those of common stock; however no preferred
stock may be issued with rights equal or senior to the preferred
stock without the consent of a majority of the holders of then-
outstanding preferred stock.
During the first six months of 1999, the Company issued a total
of 279,940 shares of Preferred Stock designated as Series A
Preferred Stock. This Series A stock is convertible into an equal
number of shares of common stock after one year.
The Company considers it desirable to have preferred stock
available to provide increased flexibility in structuring
possible future acquisitions and financings, and in meeting
corporate needs which may arise. If opportunities arise that
would make the issuance of preferred stock desirable, either
through public offering or private placements, the provisions for
preferred stock in the Company's Certificate of Incorporation
would avoid the possible delay and expense of a shareholder's
meeting, except as may be required by law or regulatory
authorities. Issuance of the preferred stock could result,
however, in a series of securities outstanding that will have
certain preferences with respect to dividends and liquidation
over the common stock which would result in dilution of the
income per share and net book value of the common stock. Issuance
of additional common stock pursuant to any conversion right which
may be attached to the terms of any series of preferred stock may
also result in dilution of the net income per share and the net
book value of the common stock. The specific terms of any series
of preferred stock will depend primarily on market conditions,
terms of a proposed acquisition or financing, and other factor
existing at the time of issuance. Therefor, it is not possible at
this time to determine in what respect a particular series of
preferred stock will be superior to the Company's common stock or
any other series of preferred stock which the Company may issue.
The Board of Directors does not have any specific plan for the
issuance of preferred stock at the present time, and does not
intend to issue any preferred stock at any time except on terms
which it deems to be in the best interest of the Company and its
shareholders.
The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of making
it more difficult for a third party to acquire a majority of the
outstanding voting stock of the Company. Further, certain
provisions of Nevada law could delay or make more difficult a
merger, tender offer, or proxy contest involving the Company.
While such provisions are intended to enable the Board of
Directors to maximize shareholder value, they may have the effect
of discouraging takeovers which could be in the best interests of
certain shareholders. There is no assurance that such provisions
will not have an adverse effect on the market value of the
Company's stock in the future.
Shares Eligible for Future Sale
As of May 27, 1999, of the 28,957,605 issued and outstanding
shares, 17,700,004 are subject to resale restrictions and, unless
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") or
exempted under another provision of the Act, will be ineligible
for sale in the public market. Sales may be made after two years
from their acquisition in accordance with Rule 144 promulgated
under the Act.
In general, Rule 144 permits a person (or persons whose shares
are aggregated) who has beneficially owned shares that were
acquired privately (either directly from the Company or from an
Affiliate of the Company) for at least two years, or who is an
Affiliate of the Company, to sell within any three-month period,
a number of such shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of
the then-outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock
(approximately 289,576 as of the May 27, 1999) or the average
weekly trading volume in the Company's common stock during the
four calendar weeks immediately preceding such sale. Sales under
Rule 144 are also subject to certain manner of sale provisions,
notice requirements, and the availability of current public
information about the Company. A person (or persons whose shares
are aggregated) who is not deemed to have been an Affiliate at
any time during the 90 days preceding a sale, and who has
beneficially owned shares for at least three years, is entitled
to sell all such shares under Rule 144 without regard to the
volume limitations, current public information requirements,
manner of sale provisions, or notice requirements. Sales of
substantial amounts of the Common Stock of the Company in the
public market could affect prevailing market prices adversely.
ITEM 12. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
The Company and its affiliates may not be liable to its
shareholders for errors in judgment or other acts, or omissions
not amounting to intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing
violation of the law, since provisions have been made in the
Articles of incorporation and By-laws limiting such liability.
The Articles of Incorporation and By-laws also provide for
indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company in
most cases for any liability suffered by them or arising from
their activities as officers and directors of the Company if they
were not engaged in intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing
violation of the law. Therefore, purchasers of these securities
may have a more limited right of action than they would have
except for this limitation in the Articles of Incorporation and
By-laws.
The officers and directors of the Company are accountable to the
Company as fiduciaries, which means such officers and directors
are required to exercise good faith and integrity in handling the
Company's affairs. A shareholder may be able to institute legal
action on behalf of himself and all others similarly stated
shareholders to recover damages where the Company has failed or
refused to observe the law.
Shareholders may, subject to applicable rules of civil procedure,
be able to bring a class action or derivative suit to enforce
their rights, including rights under certain federal and state
securities laws and regulations. Shareholders who have suffered
losses in connection with the purchase or sale of their interest
in the Company in connection with such sale or purchase,
including the misapplication by any such officer or director of
the proceeds from the sale of these securities, may be able to
recover such losses from the Company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Board of Directors
Aimrite Holdings Corporation
(A Development Stage Company)
Solana Beach, California
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Aimrite
Holdings Corporation (a development stage company) as of December
31, 1998 and the related statements of operations, stockholders'
equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year ended December 31,
1998. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our 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 referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Aimrite Holdings Corporation (a development stage company) as
of December 31, 1998 and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1998 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming
the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in
Note 4 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered
recurring losses from operations and has no established source of
revenue which raises substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Management's plan in regard to
these matters is also described in Note 4. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.

AIMRITE HOLDINGS CORPORATION
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 1998
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND HISTORY
The Company was organized September 6, 1988 as Q-Com Corp. under
the laws of the State of Nevada. On March 31, 1995, its name was
changed to Drink World, Inc. On July 21, 1995, the Company
changed its name to Aimrite Holdings Corporation (AHC).
On July 24, 1995, the stockholders approved a 2-for-1 forward
stock split and approved changing the par value form $0.01 to
$0.001. The Company changed the authorized number of shares of
common stock to 50,000,000 and authorized 10,000,000 shares of
preferred stock at $0.001 par value.
On July 25, 1995, the Company issued 8,000,000 shares of common
stock to acquire an 80% interest in Aimrite Systems
International, Inc. (ASI)
During 1996, AHC issued 676,000 shares of common stock to pay
debts of ASI. The Company also approved a 1-for-20 reverse stock
split.
On February 5, 1997, the stockholders approved "spinning-off" the
subsidiary, ASI, effective February 12, 1997. AHC acquired all
of the assets, except patents, and all of the liabilities of ASI
by returning 1,105,080 shares of ASI common stock to ASI. The
Company also gave 1,753,400 shares of ASI stock to acquire a
master marketing agreement and 426,548 shares for a master
license to use the patents. An additional 2,000,000 shares of
AHC stock was used to acquire the license and marketing
agreements. Under the terms of the license and marketing
agreements, AHC will also pay an 8% royalty for the right to
manufacture and market the computer controlled shock absorber
system and a computer controlled air suspension system developed
by ASI.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
Accounting Method
The Company uses the accrual method of accounting and has adopted
a December 31 year end.
Basic Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share has been calculated based on the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the
period.
Income Taxes
As of December 31, 1998, the Company had a net operating loss
carryforward for federal income tax purposes of approximately
$11,500,000 that may be used in future years to offset taxable
income through 2013. The tax benefit of the cumulative
carryforwards has been offset by a valuation allowance of the
same amount.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of financial statement presentation, the Company
considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less, from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Valuation Allowance
The Company evaluates the recoverability of the marketing
agreement and other intangible assets such as technology and
drawings, and reviews the amortization period on an annual basis.
Several factors are used to evaluate their assets, including but
not limited to: management's plans for future operations, recent
operating results and projected, undiscounted cash flows. The
Company has established a valuation allowance of $6,034,433 which
will be evaluated annually.
Advertising
The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of
advertising to expense as incurred.
Prior Period Reclassification
Certain 1997 balances have been reclassified to conform to the
presentation of the 1998 financial statements.
NOTE 3 - WARRANTS AND OPTIONS
There are no warrants or options outstanding to acquire any
additional shares of common stock of the Company.
NOTE 4 - GOING CONCERN
The Company has had no operations since the beginning of the
development stage. The Company has not established revenues
sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue
as a going concern. The Company is currently seeking to obtain
the funds to begin manufacturing. The Company is in negotiations
with various automobile manufacturers to license their
computerized controlled automotive suspension systems.
NOTE 5 - NOTE PAYABLE
On December 31, 1998, the Company had a note payable due to its
patent attorney of $54,214. This note is unsecured and bears
interest at the rate of 8% per annum. This amount, along with
the accrued interest of $10,770, is delinquent.
NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
On December 15, 1996, the Company entered into a lease agreement
for the premises in which the Company will operate. The
agreement specifies a term of 5 years, commencing on December 15,
1996 and continuing until December 15, 2001, with a monthly
payment of $1,180. Lease commitments for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001 are $14,160 per year.
