Determination of Offering Price
The offering price of $1.00 per share for the shares has been
arbitrarily determined by us. This price bears no relation to our assets, book
value, or any other customary investment criteria, including our prior operating
history. Among factors considered by us in determining the offering price were:
Estimates of our business potential
Our limited financial resources
The amount of equity desired to be retained by present shareholders
The amount of dilution to the public
The general condition of the securities markets
-4-
<PAGE>
RISK FACTORS
Our business is subject to numerous risk factors, including the
following:
We Have Had No Recent Operating History Nor Any Revenues or Earnings
From Operations Since Our Inception. We have no significant assets or financial
resources. We will, in all likelihood, sustain operating expenses without
corresponding revenues, at least until the consummation of a business
combination. This may result in our incurring a net operating loss that will
increase continuously until we can consummate a business combination with a
profitable business opportunity. We cannot assure you that we can identify a
suitable business opportunity and consummate a business combination.
The Proceeds of This Offering May Be Insufficient to Provide Financing
to the Acquired Company. As of June 30, 2000, there were $0 assets and $1,012 in
liabilities. There was $0 available in our treasury as of June 30, 2000.
Assuming the sale of all the shares in this offering, we will receive net
proceeds of approximately $200,000.00, all of which must be deposited in the
escrow account. It is unlikely that we will need additional funds, but we may if
an acquisition candidate insists we obtain additional capital. We may require
additional financing in the future in order to close a business combination.
This financing may consist of the issuance of debt or equity securities. These
funds might not be available, if needed, or might not be available on terms
acceptable to us.
Investors Will Take the Risk of the New Management and the Chosen
Industry. The success of our plan of operation will depend to a great extent on
the operations, financial condition and management of the identified business
opportunity. While we intend to seek a business combination with an entity
having an established operating history, we cannot assure you that we will be
successful in locating a candidate meeting that criteria. In the event we
complete a business combination, the success of our operations may be dependent
upon the management of the successor firm or venture partner firm and numerous
other factors beyond our control.
We Have No Existing Agreement for a Business Combination or Other
Transaction. We have no arrangement, agreement or understanding with respect to
engaging in a merger with, joint venture with or acquisition of, a private or
public entity. No assurances can be given that we will successfully identify and
evaluate suitable business opportunities or that we will conclude a business
combination within 18 months of the date of this prospectus. Management has not
identified any particular industry or specific business within an industry for
evaluation. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to negotiate a business
combination on favorable terms.
We May Not Acquire an Established or Profitable Company. We have not
established a specific length of operating history or a specified level of
earnings, assets, net worth or other criteria that we will require a target
business opportunity to have achieved. Accordingly, we may enter into a business
combination with a business opportunity having no significant operating history,
losses, limited or no potential for earnings, limited assets, negative net worth
or other characteristics that are indicative of development stage companies.
Management Only Devotes a Limited Amount of Time to Seeking a Target
Company. While seeking a business combination, management anticipates devoting
no more than five hours per month. None of our officers have entered into a
written employment agreements with us and none is expected to do so in the
foreseeable future. We have not obtained key man life insurance on any of its
officers or directors.
-5-
<PAGE>
We Are Dependent on Current Management to Develop Our Business.
Notwithstanding the combined limited experience and time commitment of
management, loss of the services of any of these individuals would adversely
affect development of our business and our likelihood of continuing operations.
Our Officers and Directors Are Affiliated With Other Blank Check
Companies Formed Prior to Ours. In the event that management identifies a
candidate for a business combination, and the candidate expresses no preference
for a particular company, management intends to enter into a business
combination with a previously formed blank check company. As a result, there may
not be sufficient business opportunities to consummate a business combination
with us.
Target Companies That Fail to Comply With SEC Reporting Requirements
May Delay or Preclude an Acquisition. Sections 13 and 15(d) of the `34 Act
require reporting companies to provide certain information about significant
acquisitions, including certified financial statements for the company acquired,
covering one, two, or three years, depending on the relative size of the
acquisition. The time and additional costs that may be incurred by some target
entities to prepare these statements may significantly delay or essentially
preclude consummation of an acquisition. Acquisition prospects that do not have
or are unable to obtain the required audited statements may be inappropriate for
acquisition so long as the reporting requirements of the `34 Act are applicable.
We Have Not Conducted Market Research and Have Not Engaged a Marketing
Organization. We have neither conducted, nor have others made available to us,
results of market research indicating the level of market demand that exists for
blank check companies. Moreover, we do not have a marketing department, and we
do not plan to engage a marketing organization. Even if demand is identified for
blank check company mergers, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in
completing a business combination.
Because of Our Management's Business Relationships in Canada, It Is
Possible That the Target Company Will Be a Foreign Entity. If we enter into a
business combination with foreign concern, we will be subject to risks inherent
in business operations outside of the United States. These risks include, for
example, currency fluctuations, regulatory problems, punitive tariffs, unstable
local tax policies, trade embargoes, risks related to shipment of raw materials
and finished goods across national borders and cultural and language
differences. Foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the
United States economy in growth of gross national product, rate of inflation,
market development, rate of savings and capital investment, resource
self-sufficiency and balance of payments positions, and in other respects.

YOUR RIGHTS AND SUBSTANTIVE PROTECTION UNDER RULE 419
DEPOSIT OF OFFERING PROCEEDS AND SECURITIES
Rule 419 requires that offering proceeds, after deduction for
underwriting commissions, underwriting expenses and dealer allowances, if any,
and the securities purchased by you and other investors in this offering, be
deposited into an escrow or trust account governed by an agreement that contains
certain terms and provisions specified by Rule 419. Under Rule 419, the funds
will be released to us and the securities will be released to you only after we
have met the following three basic conditions:
First, we must execute an agreement for an acquisition of a business or
asset that will constitute our business and for which the fair value of the
business or net assets to be acquired represents at least 80% of the maximum
offering proceeds, but excluding underwriting commissions, underwriting expenses
and dealer allowances, if any.
Second, we must file a post-effective amendment to the registration
statement that includes the results of this offering including, but not limited
to, the gross offering proceeds raised to date, the amounts paid for
underwriting commissions, underwriting expenses and dealer allowances, if any,
amounts dispersed to us and amounts remaining in the escrow account. In
addition, we must disclose the specific amount, use and appropriation of funds
disbursed to us to date, including, payments to officers, directors, controlling
shareholders or affiliates, specifying the amounts and purposes of these
payments, and the terms of a reconfirmation offer that must contain conditions
prescribed by the rules. The post-effective amendment must also contain
information regarding the acquisition candidate and business, including audited
financial statements.
Third, we will mail to each investor within five business days of a
post-effective amendment, a copy of the prospectus contained therein. Each
investor will have a minimum of 20 business days and a maximum of 45 business
days from the effective date of the post-effective amendment to notify us in
writing that the investor elects to remain an investor. If we have not received
written notification by the 45th business day following the effective date of
the post-effective amendment, funds and interest or dividends, if any, held in
the escrow account will be promptly returned to the investor within five
business days. After we submit a signed representation to the escrow agent that
the requirements of Rule 419 have been met and after the acquisition is closed,
the escrow agent can release the funds and securities.
Accordingly, we have entered into an escrow agreement with City
National Bank, N.A. Los Angeles, California, which provides that:
The proceeds are to be deposited into the escrow account maintained by
the escrow agent promptly upon receipt. While Rule 419 permits 10% of
the funds to be released to us prior to the reconfirmation offering, we
do not intend to release these funds. The funds and any dividends or
interest thereon, if any, are to be held for the sole benefit of the
investor and can only be invested in bank deposit, in money market
mutual funds, federal government securities or securities for which the
principal or interest is guaranteed by the federal government.
All securities issued for the offering and any other securities issued,
including stock splits, stock dividends or similar rights are to be
deposited directly into the escrow account promptly upon issuance. Your
name must be included on the stock certificates or other documents
evidencing the securities. The securities held in the escrow account
are to remain as issued, and are to be held for your sole benefit. You
retain the voting rights, if any, to the securities held in your name.
The securities held in the escrow account may neither be transferred or
disposed of nor any interest created in them other than by will or the
laws of descent and distribution, or under a qualified
-7-
<PAGE>
domestic relations order as defined by the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 or Table 1 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act.
Warrants, convertible securities or other derivative securities
relating to securities held in the escrow account may be exercised or
converted in accordance with their terms, provided that, however, the
securities received upon exercise or conversion, together with any cash
or other consideration paid for the exercise or conversion, are to be
promptly deposited into the escrow account.
The funds will be released to us, and the securities will be released
to you, only after:
The escrow agent has received a signed representation from us
and any other evidence acceptable by the escrow agent that:
We have executed an agreement for the acquisition of
an acquisition candidate whose fair market value
represents at least 80% of the maximum offering
proceeds and has filed the required post-effective
amendment.
The post-effective amendment has been declared
effective.
We have satisfied all of the prescribed conditions of
the reconfirmation offer.
The closing of the acquisition of the business with a
fair value of at least 80% of the maximum proceeds.
This offering will expire 18 months from the date of this prospectus.
There is no minimum number of securities that must be sold in the offering.

<PAGE>
DILUTION
The difference between the initial public offering price per share of
common stock and the net tangible book value per share after this offering
constitutes the dilution to investors in this offering. Net tangible book value
per share of common stock is determined by dividing our net tangible book value
(total tangible assets less total liabilities) by the number of shares of common
stock outstanding.
As of June 30, 2000, our net tangible book value was -$1,012 or -$.002
per share of common stock. Net tangible book value represents the amount of our
total assets, less any intangible assets and total liabilities. After giving
effect to the sale of the 200,000 shares of common stock offered through this
prospectus at an initial public offering price of $1.00 per share, and after
deducting estimated expenses of the offering, our adjusted pro forma net
tangible book value as of June 30, 2000, would have been $198,988 or $0.28 per
share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.28
per share to existing shareholders and an immediate dilution of $0.72 per share
to investors in this offering. The following table illustrates this per share
dilution:

</TABLE>
USE OF PROCEEDS
The gross proceeds of this offering will be $200,000. Rule 419 permits
10% of the funds, or $20,000, to be released from escrow to us prior to the
reconfirmation of the offering. However, we do not intend to request release of
these funds. This offering is not contingent on a minimum member of shares to be
sold and will be sold on a first come, first served basis. If subscriptions
exceed the amount being offered, these excess subscriptions will be promptly
refunded without deductions for commissions or expenses. Accordingly, we will
receive these funds in the event a business combination is closed in accordance
with Rule 419.
We have not incurred and do not intend to incur in the future any debt
from anyone other than management for our organizational activities. Debt to
management will not be repaid. Management is not aware of any circumstances that
would change this policy. Accordingly, no portion of the proceeds are being used
to repay debt. It is anticipated that management will pay the expenses of the
offering, estimated to be $9,553.00.
Under Rule 419, after the reconfirmation offering and the closing of
the business combination, and assuming the sale of all the shares in this
offering, $200,000, plus any dividends received, but less any amount returned to
investors who did not reconfirm their investment under Rule 419, will be
released to us.

Amount Percent
Offering Expenses $ 9,553 0.0%

Total $200,000 100.0%
========= =====
Offering costs include filing, printing, legal, accounting, transfer
agent and escrow agent fees. These fees will be paid by management.
If less than the maximum proceeds are raised, a greater portion of this
accrued liability will have to be borne by the acquisition candidate as a
condition of the merger. Management believes that this is in our best interest,
because it reduces the amount of liabilities an acquisition candidate must
assume in the merger, and thus, may facilitate an acquisition transaction.

The proceeds received in this offering will be put into the escrow
account pending closing of a business combination and reconfirmation. These
funds will be in an insured financial institution in either a certificate of
deposit, interest bearing savings account or in short term federal government
securities as placed by City National Bank, N.A., Los Angeles, California.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Blue Moon Investments, was incorporated on September 19, 1997 under the
laws of the State of Nevada to engage in any lawful corporate purpose. Other
than issuing shares to its shareholders, we never commenced any other
operational activities. We can be defined as a "blank check" company, whose sole
purpose at this time is to locate and consummate a merger or acquisition with a
private entity. The Board of Directors has elected to commence implementation of
our principal business purpose.
The proposed business activities classifies us as a "blank check"
company. The Securities and Exchange Commission defines these companies as "any
development stage company that is issuing a penny stock and that has no specific
business plan or purpose, or has indicated that its business plan is to merge
with an unidentified company or companies." Many states have enacted 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 our securities, either debt or equity,
until we have successfully implemented our business plan. We intend to comply
with the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
for so long as it is subject to those requirements.
Lock-up Agreement
Each of our shareholders has executed and delivered a "lock-up" letter
agreement, affirming that they shall not sell their respective shares of common
stock until we have successfully consummated a merger or acquisition and we are
no longer classified as a "blank check" company. In order to provide further
assurances that no trading will occur in our securities until a merger or
acquisition has been consummated, each shareholder has agreed to place their
respective stock certificate with our legal counsel, Foley & Lardner, who will
not release these respective certificates until they have confirmed that a
merger or acquisition was successfully consummated. However, while management
believes that the procedures established to preclude any sale of our securities
prior to closing of a merger or acquisition will be sufficient, we cannot assure
you that the procedures established will unequivocally limit any shareholder's
ability to sell their respective securities before a closing.
Investment Company Act of 1940
Although we will be subject to SEC regulation, management believes we
will not be subject to regulation as an investment company, since we will not be
engaged in the business of investing or trading in securities. In the event we
engage in business combinations that result in our holding passive investment
interests in a number of entities, we could be subject to regulation as an
investment company. If that occurs, we would be required to register as an
investment company and could be expected to incur significant registration and
compliance costs. We have obtained no formal determination from the Securities
and Exchange Commission as to our status as an investment company and,
consequently, a violation of the Act could subject us to material adverse
consequences.
Investment Advisors Act of 1940
An investment adviser is a person who, for compensation, engages in the
business of advising others, either directly or through publications or
writings, as to the value of securities or as to the advisability of investing
in, purchasing, or selling securities, or who, for compensation and as part of a
regular business, issues or promulgates analyses or reports concerning
securities. We seek to locate a suitable merger of acquisition candidate, and we
do not intend to engage in the business of advising others in investment matters
for a fee or other type of consideration.

Forward Looking Statements
We caution readers regarding forward looking statements found in the
following discussion and elsewhere in this registration statement and in any
other statement made by, or on our behalf, whether or not in future filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward looking statements are
statements not based on historical information and that relate to future
operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward looking
statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are
inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive
uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many
of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change.
These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause
actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking
statements made by or on our behalf. We disclaim any obligation to update
forward looking statements. Readers should also understand that under Section
27A(b)(2)(D) of the `33 Act, and Section 21E(b)(2)(D) of the `34 Act, the "safe
harbor" provisions of the PSLRA do not apply to statements made in connection
with our offering.

PLAN OF OPERATION
We intend to seek to acquire assets or shares of an entity actively
engaged in a business that generates revenues, in exchange for its securities.
We have not identified a particular acquisition target and have not entered into
any negotiations regarding an acquisition. As soon as this registration
statement becomes effective, we intend to contact investment bankers, corporate
financial analysts, attorneys and other investment industry professionals
through various media. None of our officers, directors, promoters or affiliates
have engaged in any preliminary contact or discussions with any representative
of any other company regarding the possibility of an acquisition or merger with
us as of the date of this registration statement.
Depending upon the nature of the relevant business opportunity and the
applicable state statutes governing how the transaction is structured, our Board
of Directors expects that it will provide our shareholders with complete
disclosure documentation concerning a potential business opportunity and the
structure of the proposed business combination prior to consummation. Disclosure
is expected to be in the form of a proxy or information statement, in addition
to the post-effective amendment.
While any disclosure must include audited financial statements of the
target entity, we cannot assure you that such audited financial statements will
be available. If audited financial statements are not available at closing, the
proposed transaction will be voidable at management's discretion. As part of the
negotiation process, the Board of Directors does intend to obtain certain
assurances of value, including statements of assets and liabilities, material
contracts, accounts receivable statements, or other indicia of the target
entity's condition prior to consummating a transaction, with further assurances
that an audited statement would be provided prior to execution of a merger or
acquisition agreement. Closing documents will include representations that the
value of the assets transferred will not materially differ from the
representations included in the closing documents, or the transaction will be
voidable.
Due to our intent to remain a shell corporation until a merger or
acquisition candidate is identified, it is anticipated that its cash
requirements shall be minimal. We also do not expect to acquire any plant or
significant equipment.
We have not, and do not intend to enter into, any arrangement,
agreement or understanding with non-management shareholders allowing
non-management shareholders to directly or indirectly participate in or
influence our management. Management currently holds 60.8% of our stock. As a
result, management is in a position to elect a majority of the directors and to
control our affairs.
We have no full time employees. Our President and Secretary have agreed
to allocate a portion of their time to our activities, without compensation.
These officers anticipate that our business plan can be implemented by their
devoting approximately five hours each per month to our business affairs and,
consequently, conflicts of interest may arise with respect to their limited time
commitment. We do not expect any significant changes in the number of employees.
Our officers and directors may become involved with other companies who
have a business purpose similar to ours. As a result, potential conflicts of
interest may arise in the future. If a conflict does arise and an officer or
director is presented with business opportunities under circumstances where
there may be a doubt as to whether the opportunity should belong to us or
another "blank check" company they are affiliated with, they will disclose the
opportunity to all the companies. If a situation arises where more than one
company desires to merge with or acquire that target company and the principals
of the proposed target company have no preference as to which company will merge
with or acquire the target company, the company that first filed a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission will be entitled to
proceed with the proposed transaction.

<PAGE>
General Business Plan
Our purpose is to seek, investigate and, if investigation warrants,
acquire an interest in business opportunities presented to it by persons or
firms that desire to seek the perceived advantages of an Exchange Act registered
corporation. We will not restrict our search to any specific business, industry,
or geographical location and we may participate in a business venture of
virtually any kind or nature. This discussion of the proposed business is
purposefully general and is not meant to restrict our discretion to search for
and enter into potential business opportunities. Management anticipates that it
may be able to participate in only one potential business venture because we
have nominal assets and limited financial resources. This lack of
diversification should be considered a substantial risk to our shareholders
because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture
against gains from another.
We may seek a business opportunity with entities that have recently
commenced operations, or that wish to utilize the public marketplace in order to
raise additional capital in order to expand into new products or markets, to
develop a new product or service, or for other corporate purposes. We may
acquire assets and establish wholly owned subsidiaries in various businesses or
acquire existing businesses as subsidiaries.
We anticipate that the selection of a business opportunity will be
complex and extremely risky. Due to general economic conditions, rapid
technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available
capital, management believes that there are numerous firms seeking the perceived
benefits of a publicly registered corporation. The perceived benefits may
include facilitating or improving the terms for additional equity financing that
may be sought, providing liquidity for incentive stock options or similar
benefits to key employees, providing liquidity for shareholders with
unrestricted stock and other factors. Potentially, available business
opportunities may occur in many different industries and at various stages of
development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and
analysis of these business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.
The owners of the business opportunities will incur significant legal
and accounting costs in connection with acquisition of a business opportunity,
including the costs of preparing Form 8-K's, 10-KSBs or 10-QSBs, agreements and
related reports and documents. The `34 Act specifically requires that any merger
or acquisition candidate comply with all applicable reporting requirements,
which include providing audited financial statements to be included within the
numerous filings relevant to complying with the `34 Act. Nevertheless, our
officers and directors have not conducted market research and are not aware of
statistical data that would support the perceived benefits of a merger or
acquisition transaction for the owners of a business opportunity.
The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by our
officers and directors, none of whom is a professional business analyst.
Management intends to concentrate on identifying preliminary prospective
business opportunities that may be brought to our attention through present
associations of our officers and directors, or by our shareholders. In analyzing
prospective business opportunities, management will consider:
-15-
<PAGE>
- the available technical, financial and managerial resources;
- working capital and other financial requirements;
- history of operations, if any;
- prospects for the future;
- nature of present and expected competition;
- the quality and experience of management services that may be
available and the depth of that management;
- the potential for further research, development, or exploration;
- specific risk factors not now foreseeable but could be anticipated to
impact our proposed activities;
- the potential for growth or expansion;
- the potential for profit;
- the perceived public recognition of acceptance of products, services,
or trades;
- name identification; and
- other relevant factors.
Our officers and directors expect to meet personally with management
and key personnel of the business opportunity as part of their " due diligence"
investigation. To the extent possible, we intend to utilize written reports and
personal investigations to evaluate the above factors. We will not acquire or
merge with any company that cannot provide audited financial statements within a
reasonable period of time after closing of the proposed transaction.
Our management, while probably not especially experienced in matters
relating to our prospective new business, shall rely upon their own efforts and,
to a much lesser extent, the efforts of our shareholders, in accomplishing our
business purposes. We do not anticipate that any outside consultants or
advisors, except for our legal counsel and accountants, will be utilized by us
to accomplish our business purposes. However, if we do retain an outside
consultant or advisor, any cash fee will be paid by the prospective
merger/acquisition candidate. We have no contracts or agreements with any
outside consultants and none are contemplated.
We will not restrict our search for any specific kind of firms, and may
acquire a venture that is in its preliminary or development stage or is already
operating. We cannot predict at this time the status of any business in which we
may become engaged, because the business may need to seek additional capital,
may desire to have its shares publicly traded, or may seek other perceived
advantages that we may offer. Furthermore, we do not intend to seek additional
capital to finance the operation of any acquired business opportunity until we
have successfully consummated a merger or acquisition.
A business combination involving the issuance of our common stock will,
in all likelihood, result in shareholders of a private company obtaining a
controlling interest in us. If that occurs, management may be required to sell
or transfer all or a portion of the common stock held by them, or resign as
members of our Board of Directors. The resulting change in control could result
in removal of one or more present officers and directors and a corresponding
reduction in or elimination of their participation in our future affairs.
Acquisition of Opportunities
In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition, we
may become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, or
licensing agreement with another corporation or entity. It may also acquire
stock or assets of an existing business. On the consummation of a transaction,
-16-
<PAGE>
it is probable that our present management and shareholders will no longer be in
control. In addition, our directors may, as part of the terms of the acquisition
transaction, resign and be replaced by new directors without a vote of our
shareholders. Furthermore, management may negotiate or consent to the purchase
of all or a portion of our stock. Any terms of sale of the shares presently held
by officers and/or directors will be also afforded to all other shareholders on
similar terms and conditions. Any such sale would require an amendment to this
registration statement.
While the actual terms of a transaction that management may not be a
party to cannot be predicted, it may be expected that the parties to the
business transaction will find it desirable to avoid the creation of a taxable
event and thereby structure the acquisition in a so-called "tax-free"
reorganization under Sections 368(a)(1) or 351 of the Internal Revenue Code. In
order to obtain tax-free treatment under the Code, it may be necessary for the
owners of the acquired business to own 80% or more of the voting stock of the
surviving entity. In that event, our shareholders would retain 20% or less of
the issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity, which would result in
significant dilution in the equity of the shareholders.
As part of the "due diligence" investigation, our officers and
directors will meet personally with management and key personnel, may visit and
inspect material facilities, obtain independent analysis of verification of
certain information provided, check references of management and key personnel,
and take other reasonable investigative measures to the extent of our limited
financial resources and management expertise. How we will participate in an
opportunity will depend on the nature of the opportunity, the respective needs
and desires of the parties, the management of the target company and our
relative negotiation strength.
With respect to any merger or acquisition, negotiations with target
company management are expected to focus on the percentage of our shares that
the target company shareholders would acquire in exchange for all of their
shareholdings in the target company. Depending upon, among other things, the
target company's assets and liabilities, our shareholders will probably hold a
substantially lesser percentage ownership interest following any merger or
acquisition. The percentage ownership may be subject to significant reduction in
the event we acquire a company with substantial assets. Any merger or
acquisition effected by us can be expected to have a significant dilutive effect
on the percentage of shares held by our then shareholders, in addition to the
dilution that may be experienced as a result of this offering.
We will participate in a business opportunity only after the
negotiation and execution of appropriate written agreements. Although we cannot
predict the terms of the agreements, generally the agreements will require some
specific representations and warranties by all of the parties, will specify
certain events of default, will detail the terms of closing and the conditions
that must be satisfied by each of the parties prior to and after the closing,
will outline the manner of bearing costs, including costs associated with our
attorneys and accountants, will set forth remedies on default and will include
miscellaneous other terms.
As stated previously, we will not acquire or merge with any entity that
cannot provide independent audited financial statements concurrent with the
closing of the proposed transaction. We are subject to the reporting
requirements of the `34 Act. Included in these requirements is our affirmative
duty to file independent audited financial statements as part of its Form 8-K to
be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission upon consummation of a
merger or acquisition, as well as our audited financial statements included in
our annual report on Form 10-KSB and quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB. If the
audited financial statements are not available at closing, or if the audited
financial statements provided do not conform to the representations made by the
candidate to be acquired in the closing documents, the closing documents will
provide that the proposed transaction will be voidable at the discretion of our
present management. If the transaction is voided, the agreement will also
contain a
-17-
<PAGE>
provision providing for the acquisition entity to reimburse us for all costs
associated with the proposed transaction.
Competition
We will remain an insignificant participant among the firms that engage
in the acquisition of business opportunities. There are many established venture
capital and financial concerns that have significantly greater financial and
personnel resources and technical expertise than we do. In view of our combined
extremely limited financial resources and limited management availability, we
will continue to be at a significant competitive disadvantage compared to our
competitors.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
We have no properties and at this time have no agreements to acquire
any properties.
We operate from our offices at Suite 104, 1456 St. Paul St., Kelowna,
British Columbia, Canada. Space is provided to us on a rent free basis by Mr.
Hemmerling, an officer and director , and it is anticipated that this
arrangement will remain until we successfully consummate a merger or
acquisition. Management believes that this space will meet our needs for the
foreseeable future.

management's knowledge, Tripacific continues to file reports with the SEC.
Conflicts of Interest
Members of our management are associated with other firms involved in a
range of business activities. Consequently, there are potential inherent
conflicts of interest in their acting as officers and directors. Because the
officers and directors are engaged in other business activities, management
anticipates it will devote only a minor amount of time to our affairs.
Our officers and directors are now and may in the future become
shareholders, officers or directors of other companies that may be formed for
the purpose of engaging in business activities similar to those conducted by us.
Accordingly, additional direct conflicts of interest may arise in the future
with respect to individuals acting on our behalf or other entities. Moreover,
additional conflicts of interest may arise with respect to opportunities that
come to the attention of these individuals in the performance of their duties.
We do not currently have a right of first refusal pertaining to opportunities
that come to management's attention where the opportunity may relate to our
proposed business operations.
The officers and directors are, so long as they remain officers or
directors, subject to the restriction that all opportunities contemplated by our
plan of operation that come to their attention, either in the performance of
their duties or in any other manner, will be considered opportunities of, and be
made available to us and the other companies that they are affiliated with on an
equal basis. A breach of this requirement will be a breach of the fiduciary
duties of the officer or director. If we or the companies that the officers and
directors are affiliated with both desire to take advantage of an opportunity,
then those officers and directors would abstain from negotiating and voting upon
the opportunity. However, all directors may still individually take advantage of
opportunities if we should decline to do so. Except as set forth above, we have
not adopted any other conflict of interest policy with respect to those
transactions.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
None of our officers and/or directors have received any compensation
for their respective services rendered unto us. They all have agreed to act
without compensation until authorized by the Board of Directors, which is not
expected to occur until we have generated revenues from operations after
consummation of a merger or acquisition. As of the date of this registration
statement, we have no funds available to pay directors. Further, none of the
directors are accruing any compensation pursuant to any agreement with us.
It is possible that, after we successfully consummate a merger or
acquisition with an unaffiliated entity, that entity may desire to employ or
retain one or a number of members of our management for the purposes of
providing services to the surviving entity. However, we have adopted a policy
whereby the offer of any post-transaction employment to members of management
will not be a consideration in our decision to undertake any proposed
transaction. Each member of management has agreed to disclose to the Board of
Directors any discussions concerning possible employment by any entity that
proposes to undertake a transaction with us and further, to abstain from voting
on the transaction. Therefore, as a practical matter, if each member of the
Board of Directors is offered employment in any form from any
-23-
<PAGE>
prospective merger or acquisition candidate, the proposed transaction will not
be approved by the Board of Directors as a result of the inability of the Board
to affirmatively approve the transaction. The transaction would then be
presented to our shareholders for approval.
It is possible that persons associated with management may refer a
prospective merger or acquisition candidate to us. In the event we consummate a
transaction with any entity referred by associates of management, it is possible
that the associate will be compensated for their referral in the form of a
finder's fee. It is anticipated that this fee will be either in the form of
restricted common stock issued by us as part of the terms of the proposed
transaction, or will be in the form of cash consideration. However, if
compensation is in the form of cash, payment will be tendered by the acquisition
or merger candidate, because we have insufficient cash available. The amount of
any finder's fee cannot be determined as of the date of this registration
statement, but is expected to be comparable to consideration normally paid in
like transactions, which range up to ten percent of the transaction price. No
member of management will receive any finders fee, either directly or
indirectly, as a result of their respective efforts to implement our business
plan.
No retirement, pension, profit sharing, stock option or insurance
programs or other similar programs have been adopted for the benefit of our
employees.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
There have been no related party transactions, or any other
transactions or relationships required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of
Regulation S-B.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There is no litigation pending or threatened by or against us.
MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK
There is no trading market for our common stock at present and there
has been no trading market to date. Management has not undertaken any
discussions with any prospective market maker concerning the participation in
the aftermarket for our securities and management does not intend to initiate
any discussions until we have consummated a merger or acquisition. We cannot
guarantee that a trading market will ever develop or if a market does develop,
that it will continue.
Market Price
Our common stock is not quoted at the present time. The Securities and
Exchange Commission has adopted a Rule that established the definition of a
"penny stock," for purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a
market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than
$5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a
penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:
o that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for
transactions in penny stocks; and
o the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written
agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and
quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to
approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks,
the broker or dealer must
-23-
<PAGE>
o obtain financial information and investment experience and
objectives of the person; and
o make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny
stocks are suitable for that person and that person has
sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be
capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny
stocks. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any
transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared
by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which,
in highlight form,
o sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the
suitability determination; and
o that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement
from the investor prior to the transaction. Disclosure also
has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stock in
both public offering and in secondary trading, and about
commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the
registered representative, current quotations for the
securities and the rights and remedies available to an
investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions.
Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent
price information for the penny stock held in the account and
information on the limited market in penny stocks.
Management intends to strongly consider undertaking a transaction with
any merger or acquisition candidate that will allow our securities to be traded
without the aforesaid limitations. However, we cannot predict whether, upon a
successful merger or acquisition, we will qualify our securities for listing on
Nasdaq or some other national exchange, or be able to maintain the maintenance
criteria necessary to insure continued listing. Failure to qualify our
securities or to meet the relevant maintenance criteria after qualification in
the future may result in the discontinuance of the inclusion of our securities
on a national exchange. However, trading, if any, in our securities may then
continue in the non-Nasdaq over-the-counter market. As a result, a shareholder
may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to
the market value of, our securities.
Penny Stock Regulation
For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9 under the `34 Act, a
broker-dealer must furnish to all investors in penny stocks, a risk disclosure
document required by the rule, make a special suitability determination of the
purchaser and have received the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction
prior to the sale. In order to approve a person's account for transactions in
penny stock, the broker or dealer must (i) obtain information concerning the
person's financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives;
(ii) reasonably determine, based on the information required by paragraph (i)
that transactions in penny stock are suitable for the person and that the person
has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters that the person
reasonably may be expected to be capable of evaluating the rights of
transactions in penny stock; and (iii) deliver to the person a written statement
setting forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the determination
required by paragraph (ii) in this section, stating in a highlighted format that
it is unlawful for the broker or dealer to effect a transaction in a designated
security subject to the provisions of paragraph (ii) of this section unless the
broker or dealer has received, prior to the transaction, a written agreement to
the transaction from the person; and stating in a highlighted format immediately
preceding the customer signature line that the broker or dealer is required to
provide the person with the written statement and the person should not sign and
return the
-24-
<PAGE>
written statement to the broker or dealer if it does not accurately reflect the
person's financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives
and obtain from the person a manually signed and dated copy of the written
statement.
A penny stock means any equity security other than a security (i)
registered, or approved for registration upon notice of issuance on a national
securities exchange that makes transaction reports available pursuant to 17 CFR
11Aa3-1 (ii) authorized or approved for authorization upon notice of issuance,
for quotation on the Nasdaq NMS; (iii) that has a price of five dollars or more
or (iv) whose issuer has net tangible assets in excess of $2,000,000
demonstrated by financial statements dated less than fifteen months previously
that the broker or dealer has reviewed and has a reasonable basis to believe are
true and complete in relation to the date of the transaction with the person.
Consequently, the rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our
securities.
Holders
There are ten holders of our common stock. In September 1997, we issued
500,000 of common stock for services in formation and organization valued at
$.0001 per share or $50.00. All of our issued and outstanding shares of common
stock were issued in accordance with the exemption from registration afforded by
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.
As of the date of this report, all of our common stock are eligible for
sale under Rule 144 promulgated under the `33 Act, as amended, subject to
certain limitations included in said Rule. In general, under Rule 144, a person
or persons whose shares are aggregated, who has satisfied a one year holding
period, under certain circumstances, may sell within any three-month period a
number of shares that does not exceed the greater of one percent of the then
outstanding common stock or the average weekly trading volume during the four
calendar weeks prior to the sale. Rule 144 also permits, under certain
circumstances, the sale of shares without any quantity limitation by a person
who has satisfied a two-year holding period and who is not, and has not been for
the preceding three months, an affiliate.
Dividends
We have not paid any dividends to date, and have no plans to do so in
the immediate future.
Transfer Agent
We do not have a transfer agent at this time.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares, of common
stock, par value $.0001 per share. As of the date of this filing, there are
500,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
All shares of common stock have equal voting rights and, when validly
issued and outstanding, are entitled to one vote per share in all matters to be
voted upon by shareholders. The shares of common stock have no preemptive,
subscription, conversion or redemption rights and may be issued only as fully
paid and nonassessable shares. Cumulative voting in the election of directors is
not permitted, which means that the holders of a majority of the issued and
outstanding shares of common stock represented at any meeting where a quorum is
present will be able to elect the entire Board of Directors if they so choose.
In that event, the holders of the remaining shares of common stock will not be
able to elect any directors. In the event of liquidation, each shareholder is
entitled to receive a proportionate share of our
-25-
<PAGE>
assets available for distribution to shareholders after the payment of
liabilities and after distribution in full of preferential amounts, if any. All
shares of our common stock issued and outstanding are fully paid and
nonassessable. Holders of stock are entitled to share pro rata in dividends and
distributions with respect to the common stock, as may be declared by the Board
of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. We have no intention to
issue additional shares of stock.
There are no outstanding options or warrants to purchase, or securities
convertible into, our common equity. The 500,000 shares of our common stock
currently outstanding are restricted securities as that term is defined in the
Securities Act. Under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, if all the shares being
offered hereto are sold, the holders of the restricted securities may each sell
a portion of their shares during any three month period after September 19,
1999. We are offering 200,000 shares of our common stock at $1.00 per share.
Dilution to the investors in this offering shall be approximately $.72 per
share.
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE RESALE
There has been no public market for our common stock and we cannot
assure you that a significant public market for our common stock will be
developed or be sustained after this offering. Sales of substantial amounts of
common stock in the public market after this offering, or the possibility of
substantial sales occurring, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for
the common stock or our future ability to raise capital through an offering of
equity securities.
Upon completion of this offering, we will have 700,000 shares
outstanding. The 200,000 shares proposed to be sold in this offering will be
freely tradeable without restriction or further registration under the
Securities Act unless purchased by "affiliates" of Express Investments
Associates, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act
described below. Sales of outstanding shares to residents of certain states or
jurisdictions may only be effected pursuant to a registration in or applicable
exemption from the registration provisions of the securities laws of those
states or jurisdictions.
WHERE CAN YOU FIND MORE INFORMATION?
We are a reporting company, and are subject to the reporting
requirements of the Exchange Act. We voluntarily filed a Form 10-SB on October
4, 1999. We have filed a registration statement with the SEC on form SB-2 to
register the offer and sale of the shares. This prospectus is part of that
registration statement, and, as permitted by the SEC's rules, does not contain
all of the information in the registration statement. For further information
about us and the shares offered under this prospectus, you may refer to the
registration statement and to the exhibits and schedules filed as a part of the
registration statement. You can review the registration statement and its
exhibits and schedules at the public reference facility maintained by the SEC at
Judiciary Plaza, Room 1024, 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549 and
at the regional offices of the SEC at 7 World Trade Center, Suite 1300, New
York, New York 10048 and Citicorp Center, Suite 1400, 500 West Madison Street,
Chicago, Illinois 60661. Please call the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330 for further
information on the public reference room. The registration statement is also

REPORTS TO STOCKHOLDERS
We intend to furnish our stockholders with annual reports containing
audited financial statements as soon as practicable at the end of each fiscal
year. Our fiscal year ends on June 30th.
-26-
<PAGE>
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We offer the right to purchase 200,000 shares at $1.00 per share. We
propose to offer the shares directly on a best efforts, no minimum basis, and no
compensation is to be paid to any person for the offer and sale of the shares.
We are selling the shares through our president without the use of a
professional securities underwriting firm. Consequently, there may be less due
diligence performed in conjunction with this offering than would be performed in
an underwritten offering. Although he is an associated person of us as that term
is defined in Rule 3a4-1 under the Exchange Act, he is deemed not to be a broker
for the following reasons:
He is not subject to a statutory disqualification under the Exchange
Act at the time of his participation in the sale of our securities.
He will not be compensated for his participation in the sale of our
securities by the payment of commission or other remuneration based
either directly or indirectly on transactions in securities.
He is not an associated person of a broker or dealers at the time of
his participation in the sale of our securities.
He will restrict his participation to the following activities:
A. Preparing any written communication or delivering any
communication through the mails or other means that does not
involve oral solicitation by him of a potential purchaser;
B. Responding to inquiries of potential purchasers in a
communication initiated by the potential purchasers, provided
however, that the content of responses are limited to
information contained in a registration statement filed under
the Securities Act or other offering document;
C. Performing ministerial and clerical work involved in effecting
any transaction.
As of the date of this Prospectus, no broker has been retained by us
for the sale of securities being offered. In the event a broker who may be
deemed an underwriter is retained by us, an amendment to our registration
statement will be filed.
Arbitrary Determination of Offering Price
The initial offering price of $1.00 per share has been arbitrarily
determined by us, and bears no relationship whatsoever to our assets, earnings,
book value or any other objective standard of value. Among the factors
considered by us were:
A. The lack of operating history;
B. The proceeds to be raised by the offering;
C. The amount of capital to be contributed by the public in
proportion to the amount of stock to be retained by present
stockholders;
D. The current market conditions in the over-the-counter market
-27-
<PAGE>
Method of Purchasing
Persons may purchase our shares by filling in and signing the share
purchase agreement and delivering it, prior to the expiration date, to us. The
purchase price of $1.00 per share must be paid in cash or by check, bank draft
or postal express money order payable in United States dollars to our order. You
may not pay in cash.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the shares offered under this prospectus is being
passed upon for us by Foley & Lardner of San Francisco, California.
EXPERTS
Our financial statements as of the period ended June 30, 2000, included
in this prospectus and in the registration statement, have been so included in
reliance upon the reports of Cordovano & Harvey, P.C., independent certified
public accountants, included in this prospectus, and upon the authority of said
firm as experts in accounting and auditing.
INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
Article XII of the Articles of Incorporation and Article VI of our
Bylaws, as amended, set forth certain indemnification rights. Our Bylaws provide
that we will possess and may exercise all powers of indemnification of officers,
directors, employees, agents and other persons and all incidental powers and
authority. Our Board of Directors is authorized and empowered to exercise all of
our powers of indemnification, without shareholder action. Our assets could be
used or attached to satisfy any liabilities subject to indemnification. See
Exhibit 3.1 hereto.
Disclosure of Commission Position on Indemnification for Securities Act
Liabilities
The Nevada Revised Statutes, as amended, authorize us to indemnify any
director or officer under certain prescribed circumstances and subject to
certain limitations against certain costs and expenses, including attorneys'
fees actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any action, suit or
proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to which
the person is a party by reason of being a director or officer if it is
determined that the person acted in accordance with the applicable standard of
conduct set forth in the statutory provisions. Our Articles of Incorporation
provides for the indemnification of directors and officers to the full extent
permitted by Nevada law.
We may also purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any
director or officer that may cover claims for situations where we could not
provide indemnification.
Although indemnification for liabilities arising under the `33 Act may
be permitted to officers, directors or persons controlling us under Nevada law,
we have been informed that in the opinion of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission, this form of indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the `33 Act, and is therefore unenforceable.
CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
We have not changed accountants since our formation, and there are no
disagreements with the findings of our accountants.

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Blue Moon Investments
Independent Auditors' Report
We have audited the balance sheet of Blue Moon Investments (a development stage
company) as of September 30, 1999 and the related statements of operations,
shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended September 30, 1999 and
1998 and from September 19, 1997 (inception) through September 30, 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 referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Blue Moon Investments as of
September 30, 1999, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for
the years ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, and for the period from September
19, 1997 (inception) through September 30, 1999 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 A to the financial
statements, the Company has a substantial dependence on the success of its
development stage activities, significant losses since inception, lack of
liquidity, and a working capital deficiency at September 30, 1999. These factors
raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are also described in Note
A. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result
from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BLUE MOON INVESTMENTS
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
Note A: Organization and summary of significant accounting policies
Organization
Blue Moon Investments (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of Nevada
on September 19, 1997 to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including,
but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. The Company is a
development stage enterprise in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 7.
The Company has been in the development stage since inception and has no
operations to date.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction
of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements, the Company is a development stage company
with no revenue as of September 30, 1999 and has incurred losses of $(1,922),
$-0- and $(2,507) for the years ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 and for the
period September 19, 1997 (inception) through September 30, 1999 (unaudited),
respectively. The Company has no operating history or revenue, no assets, and
continuing losses which the Company expects will continue for the foreseeable
future. These factors among others may indicate that the Company will be unable
to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. An affiliate of
the Company plans to continue advancing funds on an as needed basis and in the
longer term, revenues from the operations of a merger candidate, if found. The
Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon continuing capital
advances from an affiliate and commencing operations or locating and
consummating a business combination with an operating company. There is no
assurance that the affiliate will continue to provide capital to the Company or
that the Company can commence operations or identify such a target company and
consummate such a business combination. These factors, among others, raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.
Summary of significant accounting policies
Cash equivalents
The Company's financial instruments consist of accounts payable and accrued
liabilities. For financial accounting purposes and the statement of cash flows,
cash equivalents include all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an
original maturity of three months or less.

BLUE MOON INVESTMENTS
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
Note A: Organization and summary of significant accounting policies, continued
Use of estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principals requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities;
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. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Income Taxes
The Company reports income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes", which requires the liability method in accounting for income
taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from the difference between the
tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount on the financial
statements. Deferred tax amounts are determined by using the tax rates expected
to be in effect when the taxes will actually be paid or refunds received, as
provided under currently enacted law. Valuation allowances are established when
necessary to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be
realized. Income tax expense or benefit is the tax payable or refundable,
respectively, for the period plus or minus the change during the period in the
deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Loss per common share
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128
("SFAS 128") which requires the disclosure of basic and diluted earnings per
share. Basic earnings per share is calculated using income available to common
shareowners divided by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during
the year. Diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share
except that the weighted average of common shares outstanding is increased to
include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding
if the dilutive potential common shares, such as options, had been issued. The
Company has a simple capital structure and no outstanding options at September
30, 1999. Therefore, dilutive earnings per share are not applicable and
accordingly have not been presented
Fiscal year
The Company operates on a fiscal year ending on September 30.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note A: Organization and summary of significant accounting policies, continued
Stock based compensation
SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" was issued in October
1995. This accounting standard permits the use of either a fair value based
method or the method defined in Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25") to account for stock-based
compensation arrangements. Companies that elect to use the method provided in
APB 25 are required to disclose pro forma net income and earnings per share that
would have resulted from the use of the fair value based method. The Company has
elected to continue to determine the value of stock-based compensation
arrangements under the provisions of APB 25. For stock issued to officers the
fair value approximates the intrinsic value. Therefore, no pro forma disclosures
are presented.
Fair value of financial instruments
SFAS 107, "Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires
certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. The
Company has determined, based in available market information and appropriate
valuation methodologies, the fair value of its financial instruments
approximates carrying value. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable, and
other accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity

Recently issued accounting pronouncements
The Company has adopted the following new accounting pronouncements for the year
ended September 30, 1999. There was no effect on the financial statements
presented from the adoption of the new pronouncements.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," requires the reporting and display of total comprehensive
income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements.
SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," is based on the "management" approach for reporting segments. The
management approach designates the internal organization that is used by
management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the
source of the Company's reportable segments. SFAS No. 131 also requires
disclosure about the Company's products, the geographic areas in which it earns
revenue and holds long-lived assets, and its major customers.
SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Post-retirement
Benefits," which requires additional disclosures about pension and other
post-retirement benefit plans, but does not change the measurement or
recognition of those plans.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note A: Organization and summary of significant accounting policies, concluded
SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,"
requires an entity to recognize all derivatives on a balance sheet, measured at
fair value.
Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1 "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." This SOP requires that
entities capitalize certain internal-use software costs once certain criteria
are met.
SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities." Sop 98-5 provides,
among other things, guidance on the reporting of start-up costs and organization
costs. It requires costs of start-up activities and organization costs to be
expensed as incurred.
The Company will continue to review these new accounting pronouncements over
time to determine if any additional disclosures are necessary based on evolving
circumstances.
Note B: Related party transactions
The Company maintains a mailing address at an affiliate's address. This address
is Suite 106, 1460 Pandosy Street, Kelowna, B.C., Canada, V1Y 1P3. At this time
the Company has no need for an office.
The Company has issued an officer 500,000 shares of common stock in exchange for
services related to management and organization costs of $50.00. The officer
will provide administrative and marketing services as needed. The officer may,
from time to time, advance to the Company any additional funds that the Company
needs for costs in connection with searching for or completing an acquisition or
merger.
The Company does not maintain a checking account and all expenses incurred by
the Company are paid by an affiliate. For the fiscal year ended September 1999
the Company incurred $222 in legal expense, $1,500 in accounting expense, $85 in
filing fees, and $115 in resident agent fees. The affiliate does not expect to
be repaid for the expenses it pays on behalf of the Company. Accordingly, as the
expenses are paid, they are classified as additional-paid-in capital.

Note C: Income taxes
A reconciliation of U.S. statutory federal income tax rate to the effective rate
for the period from September 19, 1997 (inception) through September 30, 1999 is
as follows:
September 19,
1997
(inception)
Year Ended Through
September 30, September 30,
1999 1999
----------------- ----------------
U.S. statutory federal rate................. 15.00% 15.00%
State income tax rate, net of
federal benefit............................ 4.04% 4.04%
Offering costs, permanent difference........ 0.00% 0.00%
Net operating loss (NOL) for which
no tax benefit is currently available...... -19.04% -19.04%
----------------- ----------------
0.00% 0.00%
================= ================
The valuation allowance offsets the net deferred tax asset for which there is no
assurance of recovery. The change in the valuation allowance for the period from
September 19, 1997 (inception) through September 30, 1999 was $366. NOL
carryforwards at September 30, 1999 will begin to expire in 2012. The valuation
allowance will be evaluated at the end of each year, considering positive and
negative evidence about whether the asset will be realized. At that time, the
allowance will either be increased or reduced; reduction could result in the
complete elimination of the allowance if positive evidence indicates that the
value of the deferred tax asset is no longer impaired and the allowance is no
longer required.
Should the Company undergo an ownership change, as defined in Section 382 of the
Internal Revenue Code, the Company's tax net operating loss carryforwards
generated prior to the ownership change will be subject to an annual limitation
which could reduce or defer the utilization of those losses.
Note D: Shareholders' equity
Common Stock
The Company initially authorized 25,000 shares of $1.00 par value common stock.
On September 19, 1997 the Board of Directors approved an increase in authorized
shares to 100,000,000 and changed the par value to $.0001. On September 19, 1997
the Company issued 500,000 shares of common stock for services valued at $.0001
per share, or $50.

Notes to Financial Statements
Note D: Shareholders' equity, concluded
On September 10, 1999 the Company filed amended articles with the state of
Nevada to change the authorized shares of common stock originally approved by
the Board of Directors on September 19, 1997 from 25,000, no par value to
100,000,000, $.0001 par. Nevada Revised Statutes Section 78.385 (c) treats this
amendment as if it was filed on September 19, 1997, therefore, giving the
Company enough shares for the original issuance of 500,000 shares of common
stock.
Note E: The Year 2000 Issue
The Y2K issue is the result of computer programs being written using two digits
rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's computer
and telecommunications programs that have date sensitive software may recognize
a date using "00" as the year 1900 instead of 2000. This could result in system
failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among
other things an inability to process transactions, send invoices, or engage in
similar normal business activities. The Company does not own its own computer
equipment but does depend on computer services provided by an affiliate. There
is no certainty that the Company will not experience Y2K issues.
The Company cannot determine the extent to which the Company is vulnerable to
third parties' failure to remediate their own Y2K problems. As a result, there
can be no guarantee that the systems of other companies on which the Company's
business relies will be timely converted, or that a failure to convert by
another company, or a conversion that is incompatible with the Company's
systems, would have a material adverse effect on the Company. As of the date of
this report the company has not encountered any negative effects of the Y2K
issue. However, In view of the foregoing, there can be no assurance that the Y2K
issue will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.
Note F: Unaudited Interim Financial Information
Interim Financial Information

Item 26 -- Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
On September 19, 1997, the Company issued 500,000 shares of common
stock to Devinder Randhawa, for $50. The Company relied on exemption provided by
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the issuance of
500,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Randhawa. All of the shares of common
stock of the Company previously issued have been issued for investment purposes
in a "private transaction" and are "restricted" shares as defined in Rule 144
under the `33 Act. These shares may not be offered for public sale except under
Rule 144, or otherwise, pursuant to the `33 Act.
On September 19, 1997, Mr. Randhawa gifted 152,000 shares of common
stock to Bob Hemmerling, Secretary of the Company, and gifted 196,000 shares of
common stock to seven other shareholders for a total of 500,000 shares of common
stock. The shares were gifted to increase the number of shareholders. Mr.
Randhawa relied on exemption provided by Section 4(1) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, for the transfer of the 348,000 shares. All of these shares
are "restricted" shares as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933.
As of the date of this report, all of the issued and outstanding shares
of the Company's common stock are eligible for sale under Rule 144 promulgated
under the `33 Act, subject to certain limitations included in said Rule.
In general, under Rule 144, a person, or persons whose shares are
aggregated, who has satisfied a one year holding period, under certain
circumstances, may sell within any three-month period a number of shares that
does not exceed the greater of one percent of the then outstanding common stock
or the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks prior to
such sale. Rule 144 also permits, under certain circumstances, the sale of
shares without any quantity limitation by a person who has satisfied a two-year
holding period and who is not, and has not been for the preceding three months,
an affiliate of the Company.

securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to
be the bona fide offering.
3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the
securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
We undertake to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in
the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in
such names as the underwriter requires to permit prompt delivery to each
purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
II-2
<PAGE>
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable.
