ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Integrated Communication Networks, Inc. (the "Company" or "ICN") is a
provider of domestic and international long distance and related
telecommunications services. Through its subsidiary, phoneXchange, Inc., ICN is
actively developing a telecommunications network through acquisitions and
internal growth for the purpose of offering a variety of reliable, high quality,
value added telecommunications services at competitive prices. ICN also plans to
launch call center services that will provide various international multi-
lingual services twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
ICN, a Nevada corporation, was originally incorporated as Theatre, Inc.
on January 16, 1997. On April 16, 1998, Theatre, Inc. merged with and into Phone
Time Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Theatre, Inc. was the surviving
entity and began doing business as Global Access Pagers. The purpose of the
merger was to effect a domicile change. On May 8, 1998, Theatre, Inc. merged
with a separate entity named Global
<PAGE> 3
Access Pagers, Inc. Theatre, Inc. was the surviving entity and changed its name
to Global Access Pagers, Inc. On January 27, 1999, the transaction relating to
the merger was rescinded and 3,475,000 issued common shares of the surviving
entity were returned to the Company and cancelled. On February 29, 1999, Global
Access Pagers, Inc. changed its name to Integrated Communication Networks, Inc.
The Company's common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under
the symbol "ICNW." Prior to April 16, 1999, the Company's common stock was
quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "GAPI."
The Company had no revenues for the period from January 16, 1997 to
February 1999. The Company began material operations on February 28, 1999 when
it purchased 8,600,000 shares or 85.14% of the issued and outstanding shares of
common stock of phoneXchange, Inc., a voice and data services carrier, in
exchange for 921,429 common shares of the Company and warrants to purchase an
additional 921,429 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of
$4.50 per share. The transaction was valued at $6,450,003 and was accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting.
The Company operates its business through two majority owned
subsidiaries, phoneXchange, Inc. ("phoneXchange") and Internet Call Centers,
Inc. ("ICCI"). PhoneXchange is a publicly traded company that offers domestic
and international switched voice and data services on a wholesale basis,
primarily to U.S. based carriers, agents and resellers. PhoneXchange provides
domestic and international long distance service to more than 200 foreign
markets through termination relationships, international gateway switches,
leased and owned transmission facilities, and resale arrangements with other
long distance providers. ICCI was created as a joint venture owned 60% by ICN
and 40% by Global Industry Development & Trade Ltd., a British Virgin Islands
company. The Company currently anticipates that ICCI will commence operations in
December 1999. ICCI expects to offer web-based and toll-free call center
services, allowing its customers to outsource their customer management and
support activities. ICCI anticipates using the Internet, telephone, facsimile,
email and remote video links to provide sales, service and billing operations in
an effort to serve customers quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively.
The Company entered into a Letter of Intent for Joint Venture effective
June 1, 1999 with Global Industry Development & Trade Ltd. ("GIDT"). Pursuant to
the Letter of Intent, the parties created Internet Call Centers Inc., a joint
venture owned 60% by ICN and 40% by GIDT. Pursuant to the terms of the Letter of
Intent, the Company will pay GIDT a monthly retainer of $12,500 during the
development period of the joint venture, beginning July 1, 1999 and lasting a
minimum of six months. Subject to the successful implementation of the joint
venture project, once ICCI is fully operational and generating inbound traffic,
the parties have agreed that ICCI will enter into an employment agreement with
Jonathan Rosenberg to act as President with an annual salary of $350,000 plus 4%
of ICCI's earnings before interest and taxes. It is anticipated that funding for
the joint venture will be provided by an investors group pursuant to the Letter
of Intent for Joint Venture described in the following paragraph.
The Company entered into a Letter of Intent for Joint Venture effective
June 1, 1999 with an Investors Group consisting of the New Industrial Park Ltd.,
GIDT
3
<PAGE> 4
and The Rubin Family Irrevocable Family Trust. Pursuant to the terms of the
joint venture, the Company will build and manage platforms in Germany and the
Philippines and the Investors Group will fund the project relying, in large
part, on German Federal and state grants and loans which it contemplates
seeking. In the event that the indication for funding by the lending German bank
is not received by September 29, 1999, the joint venture will be null and void.
The required indication for funding has not yet been received but the parties
are continuing to pursue the joint venture pursuant to the terms of the Letter
of Intent.
BUSINESS
LONG DISTANCE SERVICES - PHONEXCHANGE, INC.
THE MARKET
General. International telecommunications has become an increasingly
important segment of the telecommunications market. The Company believes that
the following trends will continue to drive growth in the international
telecommunications industry:
- - Deregulation and privatization of international telecommunications
markets
- - Stable or declining international telephone rates
- - Globalization of major carriers through market expansion and mergers,
and transition to a multilateral trading system through joint ventures
and strategic alliances
- - Diversification of services through technological innovation
- - Increased international trade and travel
The evolving deregulation of telecommunications markets throughout the
world has coincided with substantial technological innovation. The proliferation
of digital fiber-optic cable in and between major markets has significantly
increased transmission capacity, speed and flexibility. Improvements in computer
software and processing technology allow for a broad range of enhanced voice and
data services. The Company believes that it will be able to benefit from these
advances without the burden of older, inflexible switching systems owned by many
of the larger and more established telecommunications providers.
Regulatory Environment. Legislation and international agreements that
have been adopted since the beginning of 1996, which are expected to lead to the
liberalization of the majority of the world's telecommunication markets,
include:
- - The U.S. Telecommunications Act signed February 1996, established
parameters for the implementation of full competition in the U.S.
national long distance market
4
<PAGE> 5
- - The European Union Full Competitive Directive, adopted in March 1996,
abolished exclusive rights for the provision of Voice Telephony services
throughout the European Union and public telecommunications operators of
any member country by January 1, 1998
- - The World Trade Organization Agreement, signed February 1997, created a
framework under which over 69 countries committed to liberalize their
telecommunications laws in order to permit increased competition and, in
most cases, foreign ownership in their telecommunications markets,
beginning February 5, 1998
The Company hopes to capitalize on current market opportunities created
by the foregoing initiatives, as well as the reduction of restrictions on the
ability of alternate carriers, such as phoneXchange, to provide
telecommunications services in international markets. In many markets, local
telecommunications operators have charged relatively high, non-competitive
prices to long distance callers in exchange for limited services. The transition
to a multilateral trading system will bring benefits in terms of greater choice
and lower prices. The International Telecommunication Union projects
substantially increased international minutes of use and revenue by the year
2000. These projections are based in part on the current market conditions and
the belief that reduced pricing will result in a substantial increase in the
demand for telecommunications services in most markets.
Target Markets. phoneXchange has initially selected the following target
markets based on market information contained in the August 1998 Federal
Communications Report "Trends in the U.S. International Telecommunications
Industry" (the "Communications Report"), the perceived ease of entry into these
markets and potential consumer demand:
- - Mexico: This represented 12.5% of the international long distance market
in 1996 or 198 million minutes of use per month with an annual growth
rate of 17.6% since 1991. The 1998 forecast of the Mexican market
contained in the Communications Report is 400 million minutes of use per
month or 19% of the international market.
- - South America: This represented 8.3% of the international long distance
market in 1996 or 132 million minutes of use per month with an annual
growth rate of 22% since 1991. The 1998 forecast of the South American
market contained in the Communications Report is 190 million minutes of
use per month or 9% of the international market.
- - Asia, including Hong Kong, the Republic of Korea and the Philippines:
This represented 19.6% of the international long distance market in 1996
or 313 million minutes of use per month with an annual growth rate of
24.5% since 1991. The 1998 forecast of the Asia market contained in the
Communications Report is 467 million minutes of use per month or 22.1%
of the international market.
- Hong Kong: This represented 2.8% of the international long
distance market in 1996 or 45 million minutes of use per month
with an annual growth rate of 41.4% since 1991. The 1998
forecast of the Hong Kong market contained in the
5
<PAGE> 6
Communications Report is 82 million minutes of use per month or
3.9% of the international market.
- Republic of Korea: This represented 2% of the international long
distance market in 1996 or 32 million minutes of use per month
with an annual growth rate of 15.7% since 1991. The 1998
forecast of the Republic of Korea market contained in the
Communications Report is 42 million minutes of use per month or
2.2% of the international market.
- Philippines: This represented 1.8% of the international long
distance market in 1996 or 29 million minutes of use per month
with an annual growth rate of 13.8% since 1991. The 1998
forecast of the Philippines market contained in the
Communications Report is 42 million minutes of use per month or
2% of the international market.
Currently, the Company has entered into contracts to provide 41 million
and 1.5 million minutes per month in the Latin American and Asian-Pacific
markets, respectively.
See "-- Sales" below.
PHONEXCHANGE NETWORK DESCRIPTION
General. phoneXchange has built a flexible and scalable switch-based
network utilizing ATM/IP. ATM/IP is a switch-based transmission standard that is
emerging as the industry's primary technology for mission critical and time
sensitive data, such as voice and video. phoneXchange uses a combination of
leased and owned transmission facilities, various foreign termination
relationships, and resale agreements with other long distance providers. The
backbone of the network is fully redundant and fault tolerant providing no
single point of failure through its switching facilities and points of presence
in Los Angeles, New York, Dallas and Mexico City. phoneXchange provides
carrier-grade quality service and routes traffic to its ultimate destination on
a least cost basis. phoneXchange's network uses products and technologies that
support a variety of standard network user interfaces and will allow for
expansion to meet future growth needs.
phoneXchange's network operations center uses state of the art
technology and network management solutions that allow it to efficiently control
remote switching and transport facilities. The ability to operate remotely
allows technicians to manage the entire network as a single entity. The network
operations center is staffed twenty-four hours per day, seven days per week.
On July 30, 1999, phoneXchange and Lucent Technologies, Inc.
InterNetworking Systems signed a Master Lease Agreement valued at $10 million.
Descriptions of the Master Lease Agreement are qualified in their entirety by
reference to the definitive agreement filed as an exhibit hereto. The agreement
provides phoneXchange with $3 million on execution to finance the lease of
telecommunications equipment from Lucent. An additional $7 million will be made
available for equipment leases once phoneXchange provides either (a)
verification that a minimum of $5 million of new equity is raised by September
30, 1999; or (b) verification that phoneXchange has demonstrated cash flow
coverage of at least 1.25 times lease payments on a rolling three months
average. The Company has not met either requirement. The Company is currently
attempting to negotiate an extension of these requirements and an increase in
the total financing to $25 million. While the amended financing agreement is
expected to be
6
<PAGE> 7
approved and executed prior to December 31, 1999, there is no assurance that any
increase or extension will be approved. If such increase or extension is not
approved, the Company may not be able to maintain its current and projected
growth.
The Lucent AC 120 series Multi-Service ATM and IP Switching equipment.
The Lucent AC 120 series Switching Solution offers multi-voice compression
equipment that consolidates voice, data, video and fax and allows for band-width
optimization. The Lucent AC 120 Solution provides dynamic routing capabilities,
international and multi-vendor signaling compatibility, sophisticated voice
adaptation techniques and cost savings via compression while delivering carrier
grade quality of service. Equipment can be delivered within 30 days from
available stock. Installation, testing and acceptance requires approximately an
additional 14 days.
The Lucent Switching System provides combined packet switching and
international gateway communication functionality in a single integrated
switching platform for North America. The system supports all key national and
international signaling interfaces and is equipped with Lucent NavisCore and
NavisAccess network management systems for developing and deploying the next
generation of enhanced services.
Cronus TSC 100 Trunk Signaling Converter. The Cronus TSC 100 trunk
signaling converter will allow phoneXchange's network to provide connectivity
between incompatible switches or network components. The system provides full
support for both protocol and rate conversion, as well as crossover connection
capability. It allows for user configurable framing and signaling parameters and
diagnostic software. It has support for multi-signaling protocols used in over
60 countries, in addition to the ability to develop custom protocols ensuring
compatibility with the network's evolving requirements.
Switching Facilities and Points of Presence. The deployment of
phoneXchange's network began in Los Angeles to serve the largest carrier and
customer demand. Los Angeles is currently on-line in the form of three NACT
tandem switches combined with the Lucent AC 120 Concentrators. The Dallas
network is also on-line via the Lucent AC 120 Concentrators. The Mexico City
network is currently on-line utilizing the Lucent AC 120 Concentrators and the
Cronus TSC 100 Trunk Signaling Converter. The Company is currently in the
process of expanding this network's capacity and termination relationships to
accommodate customer demand. The New York network is currently on-line utilizing
the Lucent AC 120 Concentrator and the Miami network is expected to go on-line
by March 31, 2000, each with a multi-service ATM/IP switch with connection to
phoneXchange's ATM network. The Company expects to implement points of presence
in Germany and the Philippines by March 31, 2000 through the joint ventures
described in "Business Development" above. To further improve service and
increase capacity, the Company intends to upgrade all of its switching
facilities to Lucent's Soft Switch Signaling Source 7 (SS7) for higher carrier
grade access and more efficient connectivity. There can be no assurance,
however, that the Company will be able to successfully bring the New York or
Miami networks on-line or implement points of presence in Germany or the
Philippines. Failure to successfully launch any or all of these networks or
points of presence could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, operating results and financial condition.

SERVICES/COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
Wholesale Carrier Services. The Company's majority owned subsidiary
phoneXchange, Inc. sells domestic and international long distance service on a
wholesale basis to other facilities based carriers and resellers who seek high
quality service at competitive rates. phoneXchange provides domestic and
international long distance service to over 200 foreign markets through
termination relationships, international gateway switches, leased and owned
transmission facilities, and resale arrangements with other long distance
providers.
Wholesale Prepaid Services. In addition the wholesale carrier services,
phoneXchange provides domestic and international long distance services to
brokers, agents and resellers of prepaid long distance telephone services
including prepaid phone cards.
Customer Support. phoneXchange provides efficient, convenient, and
personalized multilingual customer service available twenty-four hours a day,
seven days a week. phoneXchange uses a state-of-the-art internal software system
that provides real-time access to on-screen call records, complete with
historical detail, to track, resolve, protect and support the individual needs
of its customers. Some areas of higher customer demand include account
histories, prepaid calling card balances, wholesale and retail rate structuring,
activity tracking, resolution of technical problems and billing.
Billing Services. phoneXchange offers billing services that include
timely and accurate invoices, traffic management reports and weekly call detail
records. The management reports and call detail records include information that
customers can use to analyze their markets and profitability by destination and
origination. phoneXchange currently offers a variety of ways for delivery of
management reports, invoices and call records, as well as assistance in
interpreting the data provided.
The management team of phoneXchange uses its real-time reporting system
to determine traffic patterns and switch capacities in order to terminate
traffic cost-effectively. Monitoring customer usage and vendor trunk reports
allows phoneXchange to manage gross margins, provide superior service and
effectively manage pricing. The reporting software compiles call, price, and
cost data into a variety of reports, which both customers and phoneXchange's
management team can use in these operations. All call data, and resulting
billing data, are backed up daily and stored redundantly. The following reports
can be generated as needed:
- - Customer usage: detailing usage by destination, in order to track sales
and respond to any rating or routing variances for a particular customer
or destination.
- - Country usage: detailing number of minutes, average cost and call
lengths.
- - Vendor rate tables: Audited for contractual accuracy and allows
management to determine and establish least cost routing.
- - Vendor usage: Facilitates the auditing and verification of vendor
invoices.
In addition, all call data can be easily transported into third party software
for further analysis.

SALES
The Company markets its service through its experienced direct sales
force and account management team who leverage the long-term industry
relationships of the Company's senior management. phoneXchange reaches its
customers primarily through relationships gained through years of experience in
the telecommunications industry, domestic and international trade shows and
industry trade associations. The Company targets second and third-tier providers
of international long distance service who are unable to develop their own
network and who desire to diversify the vendors from which they obtain service
for redundancy and quality purposes.
Customers enter into carrier agreements with phoneXchange whereby they
commit to a minimum amount of minutes of use per month (generally from 1.0
million to 10.0 million minutes) or a minimum dollar requirement per month.
These contracts customarily have a term of one year. Upon execution of the
carrier agreement and prior to service, phoneXchange generally requires either a
cash deposit or letter of credit.
phoneXchange believes it can offer competitive prices by aggregating the
minutes of use from its various termination agreements and through the use of
direct circuits and compression technology, while maintaining margins as the
volume of traffic on its network increases. The savings are expected to be
offset by downward pressure on the Company's wholesale prices to its customers
due to increased competition.
The Company currently has commitments under contract to provide service
to the Latin American market for 41.0 million minutes of use per month with an
average contract commitment of 6.8 million minutes of use per month. The Company
also has non-binding letters of intent to provide service to the Latin American
market for 24.0 million minutes of use per month with an average commitment of
3.4 million minutes of use per month. The Company has non-binding letters of
intent to provide service to the Asian-Pacific market for 3.5 million minutes of
use per month with an average commitment of 875,000 minutes of use per month.
These contracts typically last for an initial term of one year.
The Company's Prepaid platform offers long distance service to customers
who sell prepaid calling cards. The Company currently has commitments under
contract under its Prepaid platform to provide 5.5 million minutes of use per
month to the Latin American market and 1.5 million minutes of use per month to
the Asian-Pacific market.
CALL CENTER SERVICES - INTERNET CALL CENTERS, INC.
THE MARKET
Teleservices, such as call centers, facilitate direct communication
between companies and their current and prospective customers. There are several
forces that drive corporations to outsource call center activities. Large
corporations, which rely heavily on communicating with customers, may be
overwhelmed with the demands on their internal systems. In addition, outsourcing
eliminates a company's exposure to rapidly changing computer telephony
technology and often permits enhanced customer service. ICCI will be targeting
small and medium sized corporations that may not have the resources to implement
call centers.

<PAGE> 10
ICCI NETWORK DESCRIPTION
ICCI is a development stage company that anticipates offering a variety
of call center services. The call center is evolving into a customer interaction
center where, in addition to calling, customers can send E-mail, conduct
videoconferences or shop on-line. Until recently, all telephony equipment for
call centers and business phone systems came in proprietary bundles of hardware
and software. To add a feature or function, customers had to wait for the vendor
to develop the feature or add an interface to another company's equipment.
Providing access to databases outside the call center was also complicated. ICCI
will use the network of its sister company, phoneXchange, to transport voice and
data traffic to its call centers. This network meets the requirements of the
Generally Accepted System Security Principles (GASSP) and will incorporate the
most recent technological advances in this business segment.
ICCI intends to build its call centers around each customer's sales and
service needs. ICCI has determined that the system that best meets its needs is
Lucent's Centre Vu(R) Compact Call Center Software Suite and ICCI intends to
negotiate a purchase contract for this software. Building on the performance and
flexibility of Lucent's software, ICCI can select from a powerful assortment of
features and capabilities, specifically designed to enhance call center
operations. These features allow agents to handle both inbound and outbound
calls and include Expected Wait Time and sophisticated routing algorithms
designed to help customers reach the appropriate destination and agent best
qualified to handle their call. Lucent's technology combines Internet commerce
and customer service, allowing ICCI to save network costs and agent time by
offloading basic information requests to the Internet, while allowing customers
easy access to "live" agents when required. CentreVu(R) allows customers to
navigate ICCI's call center using a variety of interactive menus and multimedia
response capabilities and offers bulletin boards, announcements and a variety of
customer-directed routing options to deliver quicker and more effective service.
To get the caller to the best agent at the least cost, Lucent's software
considers a range of variables such as the media the caller is using, the skill
set of the next available agents in all locations, caller location and likely
wait time, and the time and cost of routing the call and then selects the best
call center. The Company believes that its network will allow ICCI to provide
customer service and floor supervisor staff to an overseas multilingual speaking
location at a fraction of the local cost for U.S. based operations. The Company
intends to keep all critical systems, sales, client service support, help desks,
monitoring, billing, computer information systems and business infrastructure in
its domestic headquarters.
SERVICES
ICCI has not yet commenced operations. ICCI expects to provide
international multi-lingual services starting December 1999 through its call
center locations twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. The services to be
offered include:

ICCI intends to offer both dedicated and overflow services. Dedicated
service will be available to customers who want to use ICCI's call center as its
primary service. Overflow service will be available to customers who want to use
ICCI's services to fill their overflow capacity. The Company views the following
industries as attractive marketing targets: Internet, catalog, computer and data
processing, entertainment, financial services, health care providers,
pharmaceuticals, transportation, subscription and publishing.
By offering both inbound and outbound services, ICCI believes it can
offer customers the opportunity to increase revenues through effective selling,
cross-selling and up-selling on a global scale. The Company has selected
hardware and software applications for implementation in its network that it
believes will enhance the productivity of its customer service representatives.
The Company expects that ICCI's call centers will be able to rapidly respond to
market conditions and coverage as well as provide clients with enhanced market
testing capabilities and account management.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
As a provider of domestic and international long distance
telecommunications services, the Company is subject to varying degrees of
regulation in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates. As a non-dominant
carrier lacking substantial power to influence market prices in the U.S., the
Company is generally subject to less regulation than a carrier that has such
power. In the U.S., provision of the Company's services is subject to the
provisions of the Communications Act, as amended by the Telecommunications Act
of 1996 and the Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") regulations
promulgated thereunder, as well as the applicable laws and regulations of the
various states administered by the relevant state authorities. The recent trend
in the U.S., for both federal and state regulation of telecommunications service
providers, has been in the direction of reducing regulation. Nonetheless, the
FCC and relevant state authorities continue to regulate ownership of
transmission facilities, provision of services and the terms and conditions
under which the Company's services are provided. Non-dominant carriers, such as
the Company, are required by federal and state law and regulations to file
tariffs listing the rates, terms and conditions for the services they provide.
The Company is also subject to the FCC policies and rules discussed below.
FCC International Settlements Policy ("ISP"). The ISP governs the
permissible arrangements between U.S. carriers and foreign carriers to exchange
traffic and settle the cost of terminating traffic over each other's networks.
The ISP requires that U.S. carriers receive an equal share of the accounting
rate and receive inbound traffic in proportion to the volume of U.S.
11
<PAGE> 12
outbound traffic which they generate. The ISP is primarily intended to deter
dominant foreign carriers from discriminating against competing U.S. carriers
by, for example, favoring the foreign carrier's U.S. affiliate. The Company may
provide services over international private lines without complying with the
ISP, but only between the United States and countries specifically approved by
the FCC for this activity. See "--FCC International Private Line Resale Policy"
below.
FCC International Private Line Resale Policy. The FCC's international
private line ("IPL") resale policy permits a carrier to connect IPLs to the
public switched telephone network ("PSTN") at one or both ends to provide
switched services, commonly known as International Simple Resale ("ISR"). A
carrier generally may only offer ISR services to a foreign country if the FCC
has determined that (a) the country is a member of the World Trade Organization
("WTO") and at least 50% of the U.S. billed and settled traffic to that country
is settled at or below the FCC's benchmark settlement rate or (b) the country is
not a WTO member, but it offers U.S. carriers equivalent opportunities to engage
in ISR and at least 50% of the U.S. billed and settled traffic is settled at or
below the applicable benchmark. Upon grant of any such ISR application to a
given country, the FCC's rules permit the Company to provide ISR service to that
country. If ISR is not permitted on a route, absent prior FCC consent, U.S.
facilities based international carriers must terminate switched telephone
traffic in accordance with the FCC's ISP.
FCC Policies on Transit and Refile. The Company uses both transit and
refile arrangements to terminate their international traffic. Transit
arrangements occur when traffic originating from one country and terminating in
another is routed through a third country with the consent of all three
countries. The FCC routinely approves transit arrangements by U.S. international
carriers. Refile arrangements occur when the destination country does not
consent to receiving traffic from the originating country and does not realize
that it is receiving traffic from the originating country. The FCC's rules
currently permit carriers in many cases to use ISR facilities to route traffic
via a third country for refile through the PSTN. However, the extent to which
carriers, such as the Company, may enter into refile arrangements consistent
with the ISP is currently under review by the FCC. The Company currently
terminates traffic only with carriers authorized by the ISP or ISR policy.
However, the Company's future plans to expand into other countries may be
affected by any change in FCC policy.
FCC Policies on Use of Pay Phones. A portion of the Company's customers
use pay phones to access services. The Communications Act requires long distance
carriers such as the Company to compensate pay phone owners when a pay phone is
used to originate a telephone call through a toll-free number. Recent
regulations adopted under the Communications Act mandate compensation in the
amount of $0.284 per call, although the basis for this compensation is currently
being reconsidered by the FCC pursuant to a court order. The Company passes
these costs on to its customers who use pay phones. However, there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to successfully pass these costs on to
its customers or that these charges will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
Recent and Potential FCC Actions. Regulatory action that may be taken in
the future by the FCC may intensify the competition which the Company faces,
impose additional operating
12
<PAGE> 13
costs, disrupt certain transmission arrangements or otherwise require the
Company to modify its operations. The FCC is encouraging new market entrants by
implementing the WTO Basic Telecommunications Agreement (the "WTO Agreement")
and through other actions. The FCC may approve pending mergers which could
produce more effective competitors in the Company's markets. The FCC may
increase regulatory fees charged to the Company and its competitors by
eliminating the exemption for carrier revenues obtained from other carriers from
certain fees or through other actions, which could raise the Company's costs of
service without assurance that the Company could pass such fee increases through
to its customers. Such increase or other action could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
State Regulation. Intrastate long distance telecommunications operations
of the Company are subject to various state laws and regulations, including
prior certification, notification, registration and/or tariff requirements. The
vast majority of states require that companies apply for certification to
provide intrastate telecommunications services. In most jurisdictions, companies
also must file and obtain prior regulatory approval of tariffs for intrastate
services. Certificates of authority can generally be conditioned, modified or
revoked by state regulatory authorities for failure to comply with state laws
and regulations. Fines and other penalties may also be imposed for such
violations. As of the date of this report, the Company believes it is in
material compliance with all applicable state laws and regulations.
Foreign Regulation. Foreign countries, either independently or jointly
as members of the International Telecommunication Union ("ITU"), or other
supra-national organizations such as the European Union or the WTO, may have
adopted or may adopt laws or regulatory requirements regarding the Company's
services. Compliance with these regulations may be difficult or expensive, and
could force the Company to choose less cost-effective routing alternatives which
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating
results and financial condition. The Company currently plans to provide a
limited range of services in Mexico and the Philippines, as permitted by
regulatory conditions in those markets, and to expand its operations as these
markets liberalize regulations to permit competition in the full range of
telecommunications services. There can be no assurance that the regulatory
regime in these countries will provide the Company with practical opportunities
to compete in the near future, or at all, or that the Company will be able to
take advantage of any such liberalization in a timely manner or at all.
Regulation of Customers. The Company's customers are also subject to
domestic or foreign regulations that may affect their ability to deliver traffic
to the Company. Future regulatory actions could materially adversely affect the
volume of traffic received from a major customer, which could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial
condition.
Taxation of Sale and Use of Prepaid Cards. The Company has been required
to and has collected a three percent (3%) federal excise tax on sales of Prepaid
Cards to its distributors. The taxation of the sale and use of Prepaid Cards is
evolving and is not specifically addressed by the laws of many of the states in
which the Company does business. In states that do impose taxes on Prepaid
Cards, the most common method of calculation and payment is predicated on usage
of the Prepaid Card and the revenue generated from the underlying long distance
service that is
13
<PAGE> 14
provided. Other states impose taxes on the face value of the Prepaid Card when
sold to consumers, with collection and remittance made by the retailer at the
point of sale. In the states where the Company does the majority of its
business, taxes on Prepaid Cards are based on their usage. The Company believes
that it has adequate reserves to pay any state taxes it may ultimately be
required to pay.
COMPETITION
The international telecommunications industry is intensely competitive
and subject to rapid change. The Company's competitors in the international
wholesale switched long distance market include large, facilities-based
multinational corporations and smaller facilities-based providers in the U.S.
and overseas, switch-based resellers of international long distance services and
international joint ventures and alliances among such companies. International
wholesale switched service providers compete on the basis of price, customer
service, transmission quality, breadth of service offerings and value-added
services. Additionally, the telecommunications industry is in a period of rapid
technological change, marked by the introduction of competitive product and
service offerings, such as the use of the Internet for international voice and
data communications. The Company is unable to predict which technological
development will challenge their competitive positions or the amount of
expenditures that will be required to respond to a rapidly changing
technological environment. Further, the number of competitors is likely to
increase as a result of the opportunities created by the WTO Agreement concluded
in February 1997. Under the terms of the WTO Agreement, starting February 5,
1998, the United States and over 68 countries have committed to open their
telecommunications markets to competition and foreign ownership and to adopt
measures to protect against anticompetitive behavior. As a result, the Company
believes that competition will continue to increase, placing downward pressure
on prices. Such pressure could adversely affect the Company's gross margins if
they are not able to reduce their costs commensurate with such price reductions.
Competition from Domestic and International Companies. A majority of the
U.S.-based international telecommunications services revenue is currently
generated by MCI WorldCom Corp. ("MCI WorldCom") and Sprint Corporation
("Sprint"), which have agreed to merge, and AT&T Corp. ("AT&T"). The Company
also competes with other U.S.-based and foreign long distance providers,
including regional bell operating companies, which presently have FCC authority
to resell and terminate international telecommunication services. Most of these
competitors have considerably greater financial and other resources and more
extensive domestic and international communications networks than the Company.
Consolidation in the telecommunications industry (including the pending merger
between MCI WorldCom and Sprint) could not only create even larger competitors
with greater financial and other resources, but could also adversely affect the
Company by reducing the number of potential customers for the Company's
services.
Competition in the Prepaid Card Market. The Company competes with other
providers of Prepaid Cards, including AT&T, MCI WorldCom, Sprint and other large
telecommunications providers. These companies are substantially larger and have
greater financial, technical, engineering, personnel and marketing resources,
longer operating histories, greater name recognition and larger customer bases
than the Company. The Company also competes with smaller, emerging carriers in
both the prepaid calling card retail market and in the wholesale
14
<PAGE> 15
market, including IDT Corporation, STAR Telecom, RSL Communications, SmarTalk
Teleservices, Inc., Pacific Gateway Exchange, Inc., FaciliCom International,
Inc. and Telegroup, Inc. The Company believes that additional competitors will
be attracted to the prepaid calling card market (including Internet-based
service providers and other telecommunications companies). Competition from
existing or new competitors or a decrease in the rates charged for
telecommunications services by the major long distance carriers or other
competitors may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
operating results and financial condition.
YEAR 2000 COMPUTER PROGRAM FAILURE
A significant percentage of the software that runs most of the computers
in the United States relies on two-digit date codes to perform computations and
decision-making functions. Commencing on January 1, 2000, these computer
programs may fail from an inability to interpret date codes properly,
misinterpreting "00" as the year 1900 rather than 2000. The Company has assessed
its year 2000 readiness and believes its systems are compliant. The Company has
purchased or procured its essential equipment, software, systems, and inventory
within the past 18 months. The Company has sought and received confirmation from
its key third-party suppliers and vendors that the hardware, software, products,
and services furnished by these vendors are year 2000 complaint. These vendors
include the manufacturer of the Company's proprietary computer boards and the
vendors of the servers used in the Company's products, the software publisher of
the software licensed by the Company, and satellite and communications companies
that transmit data on behalf of the Company. In addition, the vendors of the
Company's own internal network, computer, accounting, and other systems have
assured the Company that their products are year 2000 compliant.
The worst case for the Company with respect to year 2000 compliance
would be the general failure of the telecommunications infrastructure in the
United States or any other country where the Company offers services. The
Company relies on the general communications infrastructure maintained by the
established telecommunications companies to transmit its data to its Network
Operations Center uplink site, to uplink to a satellite, and to rebroadcast by
the satellite to the Company's customers. Accordingly, if the telecommunications
companies and satellite operators upon which the Company relies do not have year
2000 compliant systems, one or more components of the telecommunications
infrastructure could fail and the Company would not be able to provide promised
services to its customers. As a result, customers may refuse to pay for the
Company's services and products, resulting in a decline in revenues for the
Company. This could drive up costs, as the Company would seek to mitigate its
problems. In addition, the Company could lose its good will, reputation for
reliability, and some or all of its customer base which would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial
condition.
Total costs incurred in connection with the Company's year 2000
compliance efforts have not been material and the Company expects minimal
additional costs to assure year 2000 readiness. The Company will conduct ongoing
testing of new features, components, and systems as they are added to the
Company's products.
The Company has only generalized contingency plans for year 2000
failures. In general, the Company expects that any year 2000 problems will occur
in the telecommunications
15
<PAGE> 16
infrastructure. If such problems occur which interrupt the Company's services to
its customers, the Company intends to immediately seek to obtain such services
from telecommunications companies that are able to continue offering services.
Since the Company cannot know which companies will have year 2000 services
interruptions, the Company has not made specific plans for alternate service
providers at this time.
RISK FACTORS
Our Current Business Plan Relies on Joint Ventures that may not be
Successful. The Company has entered into a joint venture to build and manage
platforms in Germany and the Philippines. The joint venture is dependent on
funding to be raised, in large part, through German Federal and state grants
and loans. There can be no guarantee that the joint venture will receive the
funding that it requires or that, if the funding is received, it will be
successful in building platforms in either Germany or the Philippines. Failure
of the Company to build these platforms could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business operating results and financial condition.
The Company has also entered into a joint venture to create and operate
its subsidiary, ICCI. The success of ICCI depends on the successful launch of
the platforms in Germany and the Philippines and the successful implementation
of an untested business plan. There can be no guarantee that the German and
Philippines platforms will be successfully launched or that, if successfully
launched, ICCI will be successful at generating inbound traffic. Any failure to
receive required funding for this joint venture could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
Risks of Network Failure; Dependence on Facilities and Third Parties.
Any system or network failure that causes interruptions in the Company's
operations could have a material adverse effect on its business, operating
results and financial condition. The Company's operations are dependent on its
ability to successfully expand its network and integrate new and emerging
technologies and equipment into its network, which are likely to increase the
risk of system failure and to cause strain upon the networks. The Company's
operations also are dependent on the Company's ability to protect its hardware
and other equipment from damage from natural disasters such as fires, floods,
hurricanes and earthquakes, other catastrophic events such as civil unrest,
terrorism and war and other sources of power loss and telecommunications
failures. Although the Company has taken a number of steps to prevent its
switching facilities and points of presence from being affected by natural
disasters, fire and the like, such as building redundant systems for power
supply to the switching equipment, there can be no assurance that any such
systems will prevent the Company's switches and Debit Card Platforms from
becoming disabled in the event of an earthquake, power outage or otherwise. The
failure of the Company's network, or a significant decrease in telephone traffic
resulting from effects of a natural or man-made disaster, could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's relationships with their customers and on its
business, operating results and financial condition.
The Company uses information systems and software to provide information
to management, deliver services to its customers, track inventory, control fraud
and monitor system usage. Although the Company engages in extensive testing of
its software prior to introduction, there can be no assurance that errors will
not be found in such information systems or software. Any such error may result
in an interruption in telecommunications services or a partial or total failure
of the Company's network or information systems, each of which could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and
financial condition.
Need for Additional Capital to Finance Growth and Capital Requirements.
The Company believes that it must continue to enhance and expand its network and
build out its telecommunications network infrastructure in order to maintain its
competitive position and continue to meet the increasing demands for service
quality, capacity and competitive pricing. The Company's ability to grow
depends, in part, on its ability to expand its operations through the ownership
and leasing of network capacity, which requires significant capital
expenditures, that are often incurred prior to the Company's receipt of the
related revenue.
The Company believes that, based upon its present business plan,
together with its existing cash resources, the Company will not have sufficient
cash to meet its currently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure
requirements for the next 12 months. Accordingly, the Company will need to raise
additional capital from equity or debt sources for capital expenditures for
expansion. Any debt financing will require the Company to pay interest, which
will affect the Company's results of
16
<PAGE> 17
operations. Any equity financing may cause substantial dilution to existing
shareholders. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise
such capital on favorable terms or at all. If the Company is unable to obtain
such additional capital, the Company may be required to reduce the scope of its
anticipated expansion or curtail its operations, which could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial
condition.
Dependence on Key Personnel. The Company's success depends to a
significant degree upon the efforts of senior management personnel and a group
of employees with longstanding industry relationships and technical knowledge of
the Company's operations. The Company does not maintain key man life insurance
with respect to any of its executive officers. The Company believes that its
future success will depend in large part upon its continuing ability to attract
and retain highly skilled personnel. Competition for qualified, high-level
telecommunications personnel is intense and there can be no assurance that the
Company will be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel. The loss
of the services of one or more of the Company's key individuals, or the failure
to attract and retain other key personnel, could materially adversely affect the
Company's respective business, operating results and financial condition.
Dependence on a Few Major Customers. While the list of the Company's
most significant customers varies from quarter to quarter, the Company's five
largest customers accounted for approximately 100% of its revenues to date. The
Company could lose a significant customer for many reasons, including the
entrance into the market of significant new competitors with lower rates than
the Company, downward pressure on the overall costs of transmitting
international calls, transmission quality problems, changes in U.S. or foreign
regulations or unexpected increases in the Company's cost structure as a result
of expenses related to installing a global network or otherwise. The loss of any
significant customer could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, operating results and financial condition.
Risk of Investment Company Status. The shares of phoneXchange common
stock owned by the Company may be considered "investment securities" under the
Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, any company that owns investment
securities with a value exceeding 40% of its total assets (excluding cash items
and government securities) is an "investment company" subject to registration
under, and compliance with, the 1940 Act unless a particular exemption or safe
harbor applies. Section 3(b)(1) of the Investment Company Act provides an
exemption for any company that is primarily engaged in a business or businesses
other than that of investing, re-investing, owning, holding or trading in
securities. In addition, Rule 3a-2 under the 1940 Act, provides that
notwithstanding a company's ownership of investment securities with a value in
excess of 40% of its total assets, such a company will not be deemed an
investment company for a one-year period, provided that such company has a bona
fide intent to be primarily engaged in a business other than that of investing
or trading in securities and such intent is evidenced by (i) the company's
business activities and (ii) a resolution of its Board of Directors.
If we fail to comply with the requirements for exemption under the
Investment Company Act or are for any other reason deemed an investment company,
we would be in violation of the 1940 Act and we would be prohibited from
engaging in business or selling our securities and could be subject to civil and
criminal actions for doing so. In addition, our contracts would be voidable and
a court could appoint a receiver to take control of us and liquidate our
business. Therefore, our failure to
17
<PAGE> 18
comply with such exemption and our classification as an investment company for
this or any other reason would harm our business, operating results and
financial condition.
Our Securities May Be Deemed Penny Stocks Subject to Additional
Requirements to Trading. If the trading price of the Company's common stock in
the future is below $5.00 per share, the common stock will be considered to be
a "penny stock" that is subject to rules promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (Rule 15g-1 through 15g-9) under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934. These rules impose significant requirements on brokers under these
circumstances, including: (a) delivering to customers the Commission's
standardized risk disclosure document; (b) providing to customers current bid
and offers; (c) disclosing to customers the brokers-dealer and sales
representatives compensation; and (d) providing to customers monthly account
statements.
TRADEMARKS
The Company, through its subsidiary phoneXchange, submitted
trademark/service mark applications to the United States Department of Commerce
(Patent and Trademark Office), to obtain trademark/service mark rights to
certain names associated with its goods and services. The Trademark Office has
notified the Company that a prior application is on file that conflicts with the
Company's request. The Company has been advised to wait until the prior
application is cleared or dropped. There is no assurance that the Company will
obtain such trademarks or servicemarks. The failure of the Company to obtain
such trademarks or servicemarks could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
EMPLOYEES
The Company presently has 23 full-time employees, including four
management executives, seven administrative staff, and various personnel for its
operations. None of its employees are represented by a labor union. The Company
has not experienced any work stoppages and believes that its relations with its
employees are good.
REPORTS TO SECURITY HOLDERS
Because of new eligibility requirements for quotation on the OTC
Bulletin Board, the Company is obligated to become a reporting company in order
to maintain its listing. In addition, the Company is required to register the
securities under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, no later than April 29, 2000. As a result of filing this registration
statement, the Company will be obligated to file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC") certain interim and periodic reports including
an annual report containing audited financial statements. The Company intends to
continue to voluntarily file these periodic reports under the Exchange Act even
if its obligation to file such reports is suspended under applicable provisions
of the Exchange Act. The public may read and copy any materials the Company
files with the SEC at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, N.
W., Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation
of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at (800) SEC-0330. The public
may also obtain such materials at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
OVERVIEW
The Company is currently engaged in the integration of various
telecommunication networks through acquisition and internal growth for the
purpose of offering a variety of reliable, high-quality, value-added
telecommunication services at competitive prices. From the Company's inception
on January 16, 1997 through December 31, 1998, the Company had no revenues. See
"Description of Business -- Business Development."
18
<PAGE> 19
The Company began operations in February 1999, through the Company's
acquisition of phoneXchange, Inc. Management has dedicated its efforts to date
on the development and implementation of its business plan and the formation and
financing of the Company. The Company has been formed to integrate state of the
art flexible telecommunication networks that provide reliable, high-quality,
low-cost telecommunication services.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
Because of the continuing development of its plan of operations, the
Company expects that it will incur a loss during its fiscal year ending December
31, 1999.
The Company believes that additional equity capital will be required to
accomplish its plan of operations during the next 12 months. As a result, the
Company intends to offer and sell its common stock in exempt offerings under
federal and state securities laws to further capitalize the Company, and may
also borrow from banks and other financial institutions to the extent necessary
to provide liquidity for its operations, although no present arrangements for
any borrowings have been made.
The Company has increased its development activities and the associated
costs consistent with its plan of operations in order to develop its products
and services for proposed operations. However, the Company also expects to
continue the development of its products and services to incorporate technical
changes and improvements in the future. In addition, as the Company establishes
its marketing activities, the Company will incur additional operating and
equipment costs. The Company believes that the net proceeds of its securities
offerings during fiscal 1999 will be sufficient to meet its liquidity
requirements. See "Risk Factors -- Need for Additional Capital to Finance Growth
and Capital Requirements."
The Company's plan of operations provides for an expansion of its
marketing activities, and continued research and development regarding its
products and services. The scope of this expansion is dependent upon the amount
of additional capitalization to be realized by the Company in its future
securities offerings, the amount of credit lines that may become available to
finance such activities, and its ability to enter into agreements with
sublicensees, joint venture partners and others. To the extent that the
operations of the Company substantially increase, it will be necessary to make
significant changes in the number of additional employees of the Company.
ITEM 3. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
The Company leases its principle office at 27061 Aliso Creek Road, Suite
100, Aliso Viejo, California 92656. The lease agreement is for a five (5) year
term which expires June 30, 2004 and covers approximately 8,642 square feet. The
currently monthly lease rate is approximately $11,926 which increases annually
at the rate of 4%.

David J. Chadwick joined the Company as President and CEO and a member
of the Board of Directors on February 8, 1999. Since April 7, 1998, Mr. Chadwick
has also been President and CEO of phoneXchange, Inc. From 1997 to present, Mr.
Chadwick has been President and CEO of C/Net: Solutions, Inc. From 1994 to 1996,
he was co-founder, Vice President and Secretary of Chadmoore Wireless Group,
Inc., a publicly traded company. Corporate responsibilities included mergers and
acquisitions, procurement and consolidation of FCC licensed spectrum and
oversight of FCC regulatory requirements and SEC reporting. From 1993 to 1994,
Mr. Chadwick was Vice President of Engineering for American Digital
Communications, also a publicly traded company. Operational duties included path
engineering, frequency coordinating, FCC regulatory filings, network property
procurement, overseeing contract personnel and supervision of technicians. He
was involved from 1990 to 1993 in the engineering and implementation of analog

On August 30, 1999, a claim was filed against the Company by J&W
Ventures, Inc., alleging that the Company is in breach of contract as to the
purchase of certain telecommunications equipment. The plaintiff is seeking
$4,685,000 in damages. The Company has filed a cross-complaint seeking
rescission and damages, asserting that J&W Ventures, Inc. breached certain
representations and warranties. The Company intends to vigorously contest the
litigation and to pursue its own remedies fully. While no assurance can be given
regarding the outcome of this matter, the Company believes that it has strong
and meritorious defenses to the claims asserted. However, a determination that
the Company breached its contract with J&W Ventures, Inc. could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial
condition.
Pursuant to the J&W Ventures Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company
issued 441,600 shares of common stock and was obligated to designate a new
series of preferred stock, $2.50 par value, and issue 850,000 shares of such
preferred stock (this is recorded on the 6/30/99 balance sheet of the Company as
preferred stock subscribed). Pending the outcome of the litigation between the
parties, the Company has placed a stop transfer order on the common stock
issued, and has not designated or issued any preferred stock to the J&W Ventures
sellers. The Company has not made any reserve on its balance sheet in connection
with this litigation.

decision to change auditors was approved by the Chief Financial Officer of the
Company. Mr. Olesk's report contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion and was not modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting
principles. The Company believes that there were no disagreements with Mr. Olesk
on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or

ITEM 5. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Articles of Incorporation of the Company include a provision
eliminating the personal liability of our directors to the fullest extent
permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Nevada (the "GCLN"). In
addition, the Articles of Incorporation includes a provision indemnifying any
and all persons whom the Company has power to indemnify under the GCLN from and
against all expenses, liabilities or other matters covered by the GCLN,
including under circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise
discretionary. This indemnification is not exclusive of any other rights and
shall continue after such person has ceased to be a director, officer, employee
or agent of the Company. These provisions do not affect the availability of
equitable remedies for a breach of duty of care, such as an action to enjoin or
rescind a transaction involving a breach of fiduciary duty. However, in certain
circumstances equitable remedies may not be available as a practical matter.
While these provisions may be amended or repealed in the future, such change
would only have an effect on liabilities arising after such change.
The Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 is against public policy and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
32
<PAGE> 33
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses
incurred or paid by an indemnified person in the successful defense of any

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
Global Access Pagers, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Global Access Pagers,
Inc., a Nevada corporation (a development stage company) as of December 31, 1998
and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and
cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 and for
the period from inception (January 16, 1997) to December 31, 1998. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
my audits.
I conducted my audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that I 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.
I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial security statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Global Access
Pagers, Inc. a Nevada corporation (a development stage company) as of December
31, 1998 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years
ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 and for the period from inception
(January 16, 1997) to December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements, the company has suffered significant losses from
operations that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a
going concern. The company also has uncertainties relating to litigation matters
as described in Note 6. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998
NOTE 1 - Significant Accounting Policies
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Global Access Pagers, Inc. (the "Company"), A Nevada corporation, was
incorporated on January 16, 1997. From January 16, 1997 through February 3,
1999 the Company attempted to enter into various business combinations, but
only one was consummated. On April 16, 1998, Theatre, Inc., a Nevada
corporation, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Phonetime
Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Pursuant to the agreement, Phonetime
Resources, Inc. merged into Theatre, Inc. and Theatre, Inc. was the surviving
corporation. Upon completion of the merger, Phonetime Resources, Inc. ceased to
exist and Theatre, Inc. operated under the name Global Access Pagers, Inc. The
purpose of the merger was to effect a domicile change. In addition, the Company
entered into a merger with Global Access Pagers, Inc. a Nevada corporation (the
Company and this corporation were and are separate entities but with the same
name). That transaction was rescinded. From January 16, 1997 through February 3,
1999 the Company had no revenues and no operations.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash equivalents consist of funds invested in money market accounts and in
investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.
(LOSS) PER SHARE
The computation of income (loss) per share of common stock is based on the
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented.
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 amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
INCOME TAXES
The Company records its income tax provision in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes". (See Note 3)
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with 1998
classifications.

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
DECEMBER 31, 1998
NOTE 2 - Basis of presentation and considerations related to continued
existence (going concern)
The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that
it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company
incurred a net loss of $8,107,099 for the period from inception (January 16,
1997) to December 31, 1998. This factor, among others, raises substantial doubt
as to the Company's ability to obtain debt and/or equity financing and achieve
profitable operations.
NOTE 3 - Income taxes
The Company records its income tax provision in accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" which
requires the use of the liability method of accounting for deferred income
taxes.
Since the Company has not generated taxable income since inception no
provision for income taxes has been provided. At December 31, 1998, the Company
did not have any significant tax net operating loss carryforwards (tax benefits
resulting from losses for tax purposes have been fully reserved due to the
uncertainty of a going concern). At December 31, 1998, the Company did not have
any significant deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets.
NOTE 4 - Development stage company
A development stage company is one for which principal operations
have not commenced or principal operations have generated an insignificant
amount of revenue. Management of a development stage company devotes most of
its activities to establishing a new business. Operating losses have been
incurred through December 31, 1998, and the Company continues to use, rather
than provide, working capital in this operation. Although management believes
that it is pursuing a course of action that will provide successful future
operations, the outcome of these matters is uncertain.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 1998
NOTE 5 - Attempted Business Combinations
During 1997 and 1998, the Company attempted several business combinations.
However, only one business combinations was ever consummated. That transaction
was later rescinded.
Due to uncertainty of recovery, assets acquired pertaining to these
potential businesses have been written off in full.
NOTE 6 - Commitments and Contingencies
LITIGATION
1- The Company, and two of its predecessor companies are named as defendants
in a breach of a lease action brought by a large insurance company
("landlord"). Plaintiff landlord is seeking unpaid rent and other fees of not
less than $198,355. The outcome of this matter is uncertain.
2- The Company is a defendant in a second unrelated breach of contract
action. The amount in controversy is approximately $12,000. The outcome of this
matter is uncertain.
OTHER
The Company is not occupying any office space or any other premises.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Formation and Description of Business
Integrated Communication Networks, Inc., and Subsidiaries

variety of reliable, high-quality, value-added telecommunication services at
competitive prices.

Agreement and Plan of Merger with Phonetime Resources, Inc., a Delaware
corporation. Pursuant to the agreement, Phonetime Resources, Inc. merged into
Theatre, Inc. and Theatre, Inc. was the surviving corporation. Upon completion
of the merger, Phonetime Resources, Inc. ceased to exist and Theatre, Inc.
operated under the name Global Access Pagers, Inc. The purpose of the merger
was to effect a domicile change.
On May 8, 1998, Theatre, Inc., doing business as Global Access Pagers,
Inc., entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Global Access Pagers,
Inc., a Nevada corporation. Pursuant to the agreement, Global Access Pagers,
Inc. merged into Theatre, Inc. and Theatre, Inc. was the surviving corporation.
Upon completion of the merger, Global Access Pagers, Inc. ceased to exist and
Theatre, Inc. changed its name to Global Access Pagers, Inc. The transaction was
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The transaction relating
to the merger was rescinded pursuant to the terms of a Recission and
Cancellation Agreement entered into on January 6, 1999. Accordingly, 3,475,000
issued common shares of the surviving entity were returned to the Company and
cancelled.
From January 16, 1997 through December 31, 1998, the Company had no
revenues.
On January 1, 1999, Global Access Pagers, Inc. entered into a Stock
Purchase Agreement with phoneXchange, Inc., a Delaware corporation, whereby
Global Access Pagers, Inc. purchased 8,600,000 shares or 85.14% of the issued
and outstanding shares of common stock of phoneXchange in exchange for 921,429
common shares of Global Access Pagers, Inc. and warrants to purchase 921,429
shares of the Company's common stock at a purchase price per share of $4.50. The
transaction was valued at $6,450,003 and was effective February 28, 1999. On
January 29, 1999, management of the Company changed the name of the corporation
from Global Access Pagers, Inc. to Integrated Communication Networks, Inc. On
February 28, 1999, management of phoneXchange assumed responsibility for the
management of the Company. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase
method of accounting. On September 1,

<PAGE> 54
1999, the Company issued the 921,429 shares of common stock pursuant to the
Stock Purchase Agreement.
The Company began operation in February, 1999, through the Company's
acquisition of phoneXchange, Inc. phoneXchange is a facilities-based wholesale
carrier that provides switched voice and data services, primarily to U.S.-based
carriers. phoneXchange provides domestic and international long distance service
through foreign termination relationships, international gateway switches,
leased and owned transmission facilities and resale arrangement with other long
distance providers. Management has dedicated its efforts to date on the
development and implementation of its business plan and the formation and
financing of the Company. The Company has been formed to integrate state of the
art flexible telecommunication networks that provide reliable, high-quality,
low-cost telecommunication services. Management has spent a significant amount
of time identifying, evaluating and pursuing strategic acquisitions to
accomplish this objective. To achieve the objectives outlined in its plan, the
Company must obtain sufficient financing to obtain and complete its
long-distance network facilities and, ultimately, achieve a sufficient level of
sales and profitability to support its contemplated operations. Management is
currently pursuing various financing alternatives. However, no assurance can be
provided that management will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to
the Company, or at all.
(b) Principals of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Integrated Communication Networks, Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All
significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Minority interest represents the minority shareholders' proportionate share of
the equity or income of the Company's majority-owned subsidiary phoneXchange,
Inc.
(c) 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 the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. The Company reviews all significant estimates affecting the financial
statements on a recurring basis and records the effect of any necessary
adjustments prior to their issuance. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
(d) Revenue Recognition
The Company records revenues for the sale of telecommunications
services at the time of customer usage. All services paid in advance by the
customer are recorded as unearned revenue.
(e) Cash and Cash Equivalents
F-8
<PAGE> 55
Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and money
market funds, which are highly liquid short-term instruments with original
maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. Cash and cash
equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market. There were no cash
equivalents for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
(f) Financial Instruments
The Company follows the guidance of Statement of Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 107, "Disclosure of Fair Value Financial Instruments,"
which requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments; however,
this information does not represent the aggregate net fair value of the company.
Unless quoted market price indicates otherwise, the fair values of cash and cash
equivalents and deposits generally approximate market value because of the short
maturity of these instruments. The Company's notes payable and capital lease
obligations also approximate market value as the underlying borrowing rates are
similar to the other financial instruments with similar maturities and terms.
(g) Property and Equipment
Property and Equipment are stated at cost or fair values at the
date of acquisition and, in the case of equipment under capital lease, the
present value of minimum lease payments. Depreciation and amortization of
property and equipment are computed using the straight-line method over the
following estimated useful lives:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Operating Equipment 5 years
Leasehold Improvements 1-5 years
Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment 3 years
</TABLE>
Amortization of assets financed under capital leases was $24,305
and depreciation of purchased assets was $283,115 and depreciation on leasehold
improvements was $1,140 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
Replacements and betterments, renewals and extraordinary repairs
that extend the life of the asset are capitalized; other repairs and maintenance
are expended.
(h) Income Taxes
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income
taxes specified by SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," whereby deferred
tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between
financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax
rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.
Deferred tax assets are recognized and measured based on the likelihood of
realization of the related tax benefit in the future. The Company had no
material net deferred tax assets or liabilities at June 30, 1999.
(i) Loss Per Common Share
F-9
<PAGE> 56
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
("FASB") issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". The statement replaces
primary EPS with basic EPS, which is computed by dividing reported earnings
available to common shareholders by weighted average shares outstanding. The
provision requires the calculation of diluted EPS. The Company uses the method
specified by the statement.
2. ASSET PURCHASES
(a) NACT Sales and Service Agreement
On December 31, 1997, the Company entered into a sale and
services agreement (the Agreement) for the purchase of certain communications

13, 1998, the Company and NACT revised the payment terms under the Agreement as
follows: payment of $50,000 due by July 20, 1998, final payment of $187,598.55

with Rockford Industries to finance the remaining balance due to NACT on the
System. The lease agreement calls for 36 equal minimum monthly payments of
$7,119.98. Aggregate minimum lease payments total $256,319.28. The capital lease
is secured by the System.
(b) FM Technologies, LLC Agreement of Purchase and Sale of Assets
On April 27, 1998, the Company entered into an Agreement of

$170,858 bears interest at 10% per annum and is payable monthly commencing
August 23, 1998 at a rate of $5,513 per month for 36 months. These notes are
secured by the assets acquired. On April 27, 1999, the Company, phoneXchange and
FM Technologies entered into an agreement whereby the Company agreed to pay past
due payments on the second promissory note in the amount of $49,617.99 and
convert the remaining balance on the second promissory note in the amount of
$132,808.91 into 25,296 restricted shares of common stock of the Company.

(d) J&W Ventures, Inc. Asset Purchase Agreement
On December 10, 1998, the Company executed an Asset Purchase
Agreement with J&W Ventures, Inc. to acquire certain telecommunications
switching equipment and software for $4,685,000, of which $300,000 was paid in
cash and the remainder is to be paid by the issuance of 441,600 shares of
restricted common stock of the Company and the issuance of 850,000 shares of the
Company's Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, stated value of $2.50
per share. The number of shares of common stock of the Company that the Series A
Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock is convertible into is determined by
dividing the stated value by the greater of (x) the fair market value per share
of common stock or (y) $3.50. As of June 30, 1999, the 441,600 shares of
restricted common stock and the 850,000 shares of Series A Convertible
Redeemable preferred stock have not been issued and are the subject of ongoing
litigation between the companies. See "Legal Proceedings." As such, the value of
the preferred stock is recorded as Preferred Stock Subscribed in the
accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. The transaction resulted in an excess
cost over fair value of the assets purchased in the amount of $2,185,000
recorded as goodwill and amortized over 15 years. Amortization for the six
months ending June 30, 1999 was $72,833.
(e) Global Network Providers, Inc. Asset Purchase Agreement
On November 1, 1998, the Company executed an Asset Purchase
Agreement with Global Network Providers, Inc. to acquire certain customer sales
contracts for domestic and international long distance services, an FCC
International 214 license and certain office equipment for $2,250,000, of which

$150,000 was to be paid 90 days after the effective date of the agreement,
$100,000 was to be paid 180 days after the effective date of the agreement and
the remainder to be paid by the issuance of 500,000 shares of restricted common
stock of the Company of which 200,000 shares were issuable upon the effective
date of the agreement and 300,000 shares were issuable at a rate of 50,000
shares at the end of each calendar quarter subject to certain performance
objectives. The Company paid $216,600 as deposit on the assets purchase and
subsequently determined that the transaction was not in the best interest of the
Company due to the quality of the assets. The Company canceled the Asset
Purchase Agreement. As such, the Company wrote-off the $216,600 deposit on
purchase and no common stock was issued.
(f) One Stop Wireless of America, Inc./Pre-Paid Cellular, Inc.
Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization
The Company's subsidiary, phoneXchange, participated in a
Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of One Stop Wireless of America, Inc. and
Pre-Paid Cellular, Inc. Among other things, the Plan called for phoneXchange to
receive $750,000 in cash and certain telephone

9. ADVERTISING EXPENSE
F-15
<PAGE> 62
Advertising is expended as incurred.
10. YEAR 2000 ISSUES
The Year 2000 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 programs that have time-sensitive software may organize a
date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in
a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations.
Management believes the Company's information technology system is Year 2000
compliant and other operations of the Company will not be significantly impacted
by the year 2000 issue.
11. MINORITY INTEREST
Minority interest is represented by the minority shareholders'
proportionate share of the equity or income of the Company's majority-owned
subsidiary phoneXchange, Inc. The interest is the difference between the
minority equity at February 28, 1999 (date of consolidation) of ($165,034) and
the income earned of $646,314 for the four months ended June 30, 1999. The

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT
The Board of Directors
PhoneXchange, Inc.
We have audited the balance sheet of PhoneXchange, Inc. (a Delaware
Corporation) as of December 31, 1998 and the related statements of income and
accumulated deficit, changes in shareholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows
for the period April 7, 1998 (inception) to December 31, 1998. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an 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. I 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 PhoneXchange, Inc. (a Delaware
Corporation) as of December 31, 1998 and the results of its operations, its
changes in shareholders' equity (deficit) and its cash flows for the period of
April 7, 1998 (inception) to December 31, 1998 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. Note 1 to the financial statements,
discusses management's concerns. These matters raise substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management is currently
pursuing various financing alternatives. However, no assurance can be provided
that management will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to the
Company, or at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial
statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future
effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and
classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
From April 7, 1998 (Inception) To December 31, 1998
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
FORMATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
PhoneXchange, Inc., was incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 7,
1998 (Date of Inception). On April 21, 1998, the Company's founding
shareholders (the Founders) contributed 300,000 to the Company in exchange
for 9.0 million shares of the Company's common stock; and C/Net: Solutions,
Inc. (C/Net), an affiliated entity owned by the Founders, transferred its
long-distance service business to the Company in exchange for a payable of
140,892.
In January 1998, C/Net formed a group to develop and implement the
Company's long-distance service business plan. During the period from
January 1, through April 21, 1998, C/Net incurred direct and indirect
expenditures in connection with the activities of this group and in
connection with the formation of the Company aggregating 110,412. Indirect
expenditures included in this amount were allocated to the long-distance
service business based on the ratio of aggregate salaries expense of the
long-distance business to C/Net's total salaries expense during the period
from January 1, through April 21, 1998. These direct and indirect expenses
have been reflected in the accompanying Statement of Operations.
On May 1, 1998, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the Merger) with Mars Method Inc. (Mars Method), a publicly held entity
and a Delaware corporation. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company issued
1,100,882 shares of its common stock in exchange for 14,064,216 shares of
.001 par value common stock of Mars Method, which represents 100% of the
issued and outstanding shares of Mars Method. Upon completion of the
Merger, PhoneXchange, was the surviving corporation and Mars Method ceased
to exist. The Directors and Officers of the Company are the Directors and
Officers of the surviving corporation. The exchange is exempt from
registration pursuant to Regulation D, Section 504 of the Securities and
Exchange Commission Act of 1933, as amended. The Company expended 7,082 of
organizational costs of Mars Method upon completion of the Merger which
have been reflected in the accompanying Statement of Operations. The Merger
has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.
The Company is being formed to build a state of the art flexible switching
network which provides reliable, high-quality, low-cost domestic and
international long-distance service on a wholesale basis to second and
third-tier U.S. based long distance providers and resellers and brokers of
domestic and international long-distance service. The Company expects to
provide long distance services through a flexible network of foreign
termination relationships, international gateway and multi-service, frame
relay, Internet Protocol switches, leased and owned transmission
facilities and resale arrangements with other long distance providers. The
Company began offering its services to customers in September of 1998.

PHONEXHANGE, INC.
(A Delaware Corporation)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONT.'D
From April 7, 1998 (inception To December 31, 1998
Management has dedicated its efforts to date on the development and
implementation of its long-distance service business plan and the formation and
financing of the Company. To achieve the objectives outlined in its plan, the
Company must obtain sufficient financing to obtain and complete its
long-distance network facilities and, ultimately, achieve a sufficient level of
sales and profitability to support its contemplated operations. Management is
currently pursuing various financing alternatives. However, no assurance can be
provided that management will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable
to the Company, or at all. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial
statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future
effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and
classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
USE OF ESTIMATES:
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting period. The Company reviews all significant estimates effecting the
financial statements on a recurring basis and records the effect of any
necessary adjustments prior to their issuance. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
REVENUE RECOGNITION:
The Company records revenues for the sale of telecommunications services at the
time of customer usage. All services paid in advance by the customer are
recorded as unearned revenue.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENT:
Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and money market funds,
which are highly liquid short-term instruments with original maturities of
three months or less from the date of purchase. There were no cash equivalents
for the period April 7, to December 31, 1997.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:
Property and equipment are stated at cost or fair values at the date of
acquisition and, in the case of equipment under capital leases, the present
value of minimum lease payments. Depreciation and amortization of property and
equipment are computed using the straight-line method over the following
estimated useful lives:

Amortization of assets financed under capital leases was 38,403 at December
31, 1998. Depreciation of purchased assets was 21,593. Total Amortization
and depreciation was 59,996.
Replacements and betterments, renewals and extraordinary repairs that
extend the life of the assets are capitalized; other repairs and
maintenance are expended.
INCOME TAXES:
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes
specified by SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", whereby deferred
tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between
financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted
tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to
reverse. Deferred tax assets are recognized and measured based on the
likelihood of realization of the related tax benefit in the future. The
Company had no material net deferred tax assets or liabilities at
December 31, 1998.
LOSS PER COMMON SHARE:
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". The statement replaces primary EPS
with basic EPS, which is computed by dividing reported earnings available
to common shareholders by weighted average shares outstanding. The
provisions requires the calculation of diluted EPS. The Company uses the
method specified by the statement.
2. AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER
On May 1, 1998, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the Merger) with Mars Method Inc. (Mars Method) a Delaware corporation.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company issued 1,100,882 shares of its
common stock in exchange for 14,064,216 shares of .001 par value common
stock of Mars Method, which represents 100% of the issued and outstanding
shares of Mars Method. Upon completion of the Merger, PhoneXchange, will
be the surviving corporation and Mars Method will cease to exist. The
exchange will be exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation D,
Section 504 of the Securities and Exchange Commission Act of 1933, as
amended. The Company expended 7,082 of organizational costs of Mars Method
upon completion of the Merger. The Directors and Officers of the Company
are the Directors and officers of the surviving corporation. The Merger is
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.

8. LEASE COMMITMENTS:
The company utilizes office space for its corporate offices in Newport
Beach, California currently under lease by C/Net:Solutions, Inc. The lease
calls for minimum monthly payments of 10,558 and expires on May 15, 1999.
Rent expense has been allocated to the Company based on the amount of space
utilized by the Company as compared to the total space under lease. For the
period of January 1, 1998 to October 31, 1998, the Company was allocated 20%
of the total monthly lease payment. Effective September 1, 1998, management
determined that substantially all of the space at this facility was being
used to the benefit of the Company as the Company began offering its
services to its customers in September 1998. Therefore, the Company was
allocated 100% of the minimum monthly lease payment under the lease for the
period from September 1, 1998 to December 31, 1998. The Company intends to
secure office space for its corporate offices in a new location prior to the
expiration of the existing lease under C/Net:Solutions, Inc.

AMOUNT $ 5,000,000.00
NUMBER NOV-1999-101
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, INTEGRATED COMMUNICATION NETWORKS, INC., a Nevada
corporation (the "Company"), hereby promises to pay REBECCA LLC or registered
assigns (the "Holder") on December __, 2004, (the "Maturity Date"), the
principal amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) U.S., and to pay interest
on the principal amount hereof, in such amounts, at such times and on such terms
and conditions as are specified herein.
Article 1. Interest
The Company shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of this
Debenture (the "Debenture") at the time of each conversion at the rate of Four
Percent (4%) per annum, payable in arrears at the time of each conversion, in
cash or in common stock of the Company, $.01 par value per share (the "Common
Stock"), at the Company's option, until the principal amount hereof is paid in
full or has been converted. If paid in Common Stock, the number of shares of the
Company's Common Stock to be received shall be determined pursuant to Section
4(d) hereof. If the Interest is to be paid in cash, the Company shall make such
payment within 5 business days of the conversion payment date. If the interest
is to be paid in Common Stock, said Common Stock shall be delivered to the
Holder, or per Holder's instructions, within 10 business days of the conversion
date. The Debentures are subject to automatic conversion at the end of sixty
(60) months from the date of issuance at which time all Debentures outstanding
will be automatically converted based upon the formula set forth in Section 3.2.
The closing shall be deemed to have occurred on the date the "Purchase Price",
as defined in the Subscription Agreement entered into between the Company and
Holder (the "Subscription Agreement"), less fees and expenses payable by the
Company, is wired to the Company (the "Closing Date").
Article 2. Method of Payment
This Debenture must be surrendered to the Company in order for the
Holder to receive payment of the principal amount hereof. The Company shall have
the option of paying the interest on this Debenture in United States dollars or
in common stock upon conversion pursuant to Article 1 hereof. The Company may
draw a check for the payment of interest to the order of the Holder of this
Debenture and mail it to the Holder's address as shown on the Register (as
defined in Section 7.2 below). Interest and principal payments shall be subject
to withholding under applicable United States Federal Internal Revenue Service
Regulations.
Article 3. Conversion
Section 3.1. Conversion Privilege
(a) The Holder of this Debenture shall have the right, at its option, to
convert it into shares of Common Stock at any time commencing April 1, 2000 and
which is before the close of business on the Maturity Date, except as set forth
in Section 3.1(c) below. The number of shares of Common Stock
<PAGE> 2
issuable upon the conversion of this Debenture is determined pursuant to Section
3.2 and rounding the result to the nearest whole share.
(b) Less than all of the principal amount of this Debenture may be
converted into Common Stock if the portion converted is $5,000 or a whole
multiple of $5,000 and the provisions of this Article 3 that apply to the
conversion of all of the Debenture shall also apply to the conversion of a
portion of it. This Debenture may not be converted, whether in whole or in part,
except in accordance with Article 3.
(c) In the event all or any portion of this Debenture remains
outstanding on the fifth anniversary of the date hereof, the unconverted portion
of such Debenture will automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock on
such date in the manner set forth in Section 3.2.
Section 3.2. Conversion Procedure.
(a) Debentures. Upon the Company's receipt of a facsimile or original of
Holder's duly completed and signed Notice of Conversion (a copy of which is
attached hereto as Exhibit A), the Company shall instruct its transfer agent to
issue one or more Certificates representing that number of shares of Common
Stock into which the Debentures are convertible in accordance with the
provisions regarding conversion. The Company's transfer agent or attorney shall
act as Registrar and shall maintain an appropriate ledger containing the
necessary information with respect to each Debenture.
(b) Conversion Date. Such conversion shall be effectuated by
surrendering to the Company, or its attorney, the Debentures to be converted
together with a facsimile or original of the signed Notice of Conversion. The
date on which the Notice of Conversion is effective ("Conversion Date") shall be
deemed to be the date on which the Holder has delivered to the Company a
facsimile or original of the signed Notice of Conversion, as long as the
original Debentures to be converted are received by the Company or its
designated attorney within 3 business days thereafter. As long as the Debentures
to be converted are received by the Company within 3 business days after it
receives a facsimile or original of the signed Notice of Conversion, the Company
shall deliver to the Holder, or per the Holder's instructions, the shares of
Common Stock, with, unless as otherwise provided in the Subscription Agreement,
restrictive legends as set forth in the Subscription Agreement within 5 business
days of receipt of the Debentures to be converted.
(c) Common Stock to be Issued. Upon the conversion of any Debentures and
upon receipt by the Company or its attorney of a facsimile or original of
Holder's signed Notice of Conversion, Company shall instruct Company's transfer
agent to issue Stock Certificates with restrictive legends as set forth in the
Subscription Agreement, unless as otherwise provided in the Subscription
Agreement, in the name of Holder (or its nominee) and in such denominations to
be specified at conversion representing the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such conversion, as applicable. Company warrants that no
instructions, other than these instructions, have been given or will be given to
the transfer agent and that the Common Stock shall otherwise be freely
transferable on the books and records of Company.
(d) Conversion Rate. Anytime commencing with April 1, 2000, Holder is
entitled to convert this Debenture, plus accrued interest, into Common Stock of
the Company at the lesser of (i) 80% of the averaged three lowest closing bid
prices, as reported by Bloomberg, LP, for the Company's Common Stock for the
twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the Conversion Date or (ii)
$10.00 (each being referred to as the "Conversion Price"). Anytime after the
Closing Date, the first trading date, if any, when the closing bid price of the
Company's Common Stock is equal to or less than $6.00 as reported by Bloomberg,
shall be referred to as the "Soft Floor Date," and the Holder agrees that it
shall not convert any Debentures for the nine (9) trading days following, but
not including, the "Soft Floor Date, even if the closing bid price is above
$6.00 during that time. The Holder may again convert Debentures on the tenth
(10th) trading day following, but not including, the Soft Floor Date, and no
further restrictions will be imposed on conversions in the event the closing bid
price is equal to or below $6.00 anytime after the tenth (10th) trading day
following the Soft Floor Date, except as required by subsection 3.2(k) hereof.
No fractional shares or scrip representing fractions of shares will be issued on
conversion, but the number of shares issuable shall be rounded up or down, as
the case may be, to the nearest whole share.

<PAGE> 3
Mandatory Conversion Date. The Debentures are subject to mandatory
conversion sixty (60) months after issuance, at which time all Debentures
outstanding will be automatically converted, upon the terms set forth in this
section.
(e) Nothing contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be deemed to
establish or require the payment of interest to the Holder at a rate in excess
of the maximum rate permitted by governing law. In the event that the rate of
interest required to be paid exceeds the maximum rate permitted by governing
law, the rate of interest required to be paid thereunder shall be automatically
reduced to the maximum rate permitted under the governing law and such excess
shall be returned with reasonable promptness by the Holder to the Company.
(f) It shall be the Company's responsibility to take all necessary
actions and to bear all such costs to issue certificates for the Common Stock as
provided herein, including the responsibility and cost for delivery of an
opinion letter to the transfer agent, if so required. The person in whose name
the certificate of Common Stock is to be registered shall be treated as a
shareholder of record on and after the conversion date. Upon surrender of any
Debentures that are to be converted in part, the Company shall issue to the
Holder new Debentures representing the unconverted amount, if so requested by
Holder.
(g) In the event the Common Stock is not delivered (with legends if
before the effective date of the registration statement covering this Debenture
and without legends if after the effective date of the registration statement
covering this Debenture) per the written instructions of the Holder, within
eight (8) business days after, but not including, the Conversion Date and
delivery of the Debentures to be converted (unless such delay is caused by
operation of law) then in such event the Company shall pay to Holder one-half
percent (0.5%), in cash, of the dollar value of the Debentures being converted
per each business day following the eighth (8th) business day after the
Conversion Date and delivery of the Debentures to be converted that the Common
Stock is not delivered up to and including the eighteenth (18th) business day
following the Conversion Date and delivery of the Debentures to be converted
that the Common Stock is not delivered. In the event the Common Stock is not
delivered per the written instructions of the Holder, within eighteen (18)
business days after, but not including, the Conversion Date and delivery of the
Debentures to be converted (unless such delay is caused by operation of law)
then in such event the Company shall pay to Holder one percent (1%), in cash, of
the dollar value of the Debentures being converted per each business day
following the eighteenth (18th) business day after the Conversion Date and
delivery of the Debentures to be converted that the Common Stock is not
delivered. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to
pay liquidated damages in excess of $100,000 per month pursuant to the terms of
this section. In the event the Holder converts a portion of the Debentures after
the effective date of the registration statement covering this Offering and the
Company is unable to deliver unrestricted, freely tradable common stock to the
Holder within twenty (20) calendar days following the Conversion Date, such
inability on the Company's part shall be considered an event of default. Holder
shall then be entitled to send written notice to the Company of the default and
the Holder, at its sole option may demand full repayment of the prorata Purchase
Price of the Debentures not yet converted, including accrued interest and
liquidated damages through the date that written notice is given to the Company
(the "Acceleration Amount"). If the Company does not wire the Acceleration
Amount to the Holder within five (5) business days of receiving the default
notice from Holder the Acceleration Amount shall accrue interest at twenty-four
percent (24%) per annum. The Company acknowledges that the failure to honor a
Notice of Conversion shall cause financial hardship to the Holder.
If, by the eighth (8th) business day after the Conversion Date and
delivery of the Debentures to be converted (the "Delivery Date"), unless such
delay is caused by operation of law, due to the Company's direct or indirect
actions or its failure to act, the transfer agent fails for any reason to
deliver the Common Stock (with legends if before the effective date of the
registration statement covering this Debenture and without legends if after the
effective date of the registration statement covering this Debenture) upon
conversion by the Holder and after such Delivery Date, the Holder purchases, in
an open market transaction or otherwise, shares of Common Stock (the "Covering
Shares") solely in order to make delivery in satisfaction of a sale of Common
Stock by the Holder (the "Sold Shares"), which delivery such Holder anticipated
to make using the Common Stock issuable upon conversion (a "Buy-In"), the
Company shall pay to the Holder, in addition to any other amounts due to Holder
pursuant to this Debenture, and not in lieu thereof, the Buy-In Adjustment
Amount (as defined below). The "Buy In Adjustment Amount" is
3
<PAGE> 4
the amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the Holder's total purchase price
(including brokerage commissions, if any) for the Covering Shares over (y) the
net proceeds (after brokerage commissions, if any) received by the Holder from
the sale of the Sold Shares. The Company shall pay the Buy-In Adjustment Amount
to the Holder in immediately available funds within five (5) business days of
written demand by the Holder. By way of illustration and not in limitation of
the foregoing, if the Holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total
purchase price (including brokerage commissions) of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In
with respect to shares of Common Stock it sold for net proceeds of $10,000, the
Buy-In Adjustment Amount which the Company will be required to pay to the Holder
will be $1,000.
In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the securities
issuable upon conversion, provided the Company's transfer agent is participating
in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer
program, upon request of the Holder and its compliance with the provisions
contained in this paragraph, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a
legend and the Holder thereof is not obligated to return such certificate for
the placement of a legend thereon, the Company shall use its best efforts to
cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion to the Holder by crediting the account of Holder's
broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system.
The Company acknowledges that its failure to deliver the Common Stock
within eight (8) business days after the Conversion Date will cause the Holder
to suffer damages in an amount that will be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly,
the parties agree that it is appropriate to include in this Agreement a
provision for liquidated damages. The parties acknowledge and agree that the
liquidated damages provision set forth in this section represents the parties'
good faith effort to quantify such damages and, as such, agree that the form and
amount of such liquidated damages are reasonable and will not constitute a
penalty. The payment of liquidated damages shall not relieve the Company from
its obligations to deliver the Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement.
To the extent that the failure of the Company to issue the Common Stock
pursuant to this Section 3.2 is due to the unavailability of authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock, the provisions of this Section 3.2(g) shall not
apply but instead the provisions of Section 3.2(h) shall apply.
(h) The Company shall at all times reserve and have available all Common
Stock necessary to meet conversion of the Debentures by all Holders of the
entire amount of Debentures then outstanding. If, at any time Holder submits a
Notice of Conversion and the Company does not have sufficient authorized but
unissued shares of Common Stock available to effect, in full, a conversion of
the Debentures (a "Conversion Default", the date of such default being referred
to herein as the "Conversion Default Date"), the Company shall issue to the
Holder all of the shares of Common Stock which are available, and the Notice of
Conversion as to any Debentures requested to be converted but not converted (the
"Unconverted Debentures"), upon Holder's sole option, may be deemed null and
void. The Company shall provide notice of such Conversion Default ("Notice of
Conversion Default") to all existing Holders of outstanding Debentures, by
facsimile, within five (5) business days of such default (with the original
delivered by overnight or two day courier), and the Holder shall give notice to
the Company by facsimile within five business days of receipt of the original
Notice of Conversion Default (with the original delivered by overnight or two
day courier) of its election to either nullify or confirm the Notice of
Conversion.
The Company agrees to pay to all Holders of outstanding Debentures
payments for a Conversion Default ("Conversion Default Payments") in the amount
of (N/365) x (.24) x the initial issuance price of the outstanding and/or
tendered but not converted Debentures held by each Holder where N = the number
of days from the Conversion Default Date to the date (the "Authorization Date")
that the Company authorizes a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to
effect conversion of all remaining Debentures. The Company shall send notice
("Authorization Notice") to each Holder of outstanding Debentures that
additional shares of Common Stock have been authorized, the Authorization Date
and the amount of Holder's accrued Conversion Default Payments. The accrued
Conversion Default Payments shall be paid in cash or shall be convertible into
Common Stock at the Conversion Rate, at the Holder's option, payable as follows:
(i) in the event Holder elects within ten (10) days of the Authorization Notice
in writing to take such payment in cash, cash payments shall be made to such
Holder by the fifth day of the following calendar month, or (ii) if the Holder
does not so elect to receive such Conversion
4
<PAGE> 5
Default Payment in cash, such payment shall be made in Common Stock at the then
current Conversion Price within 30 days following the date of the Authorization
Notice.
The Company acknowledges that its failure to maintain a sufficient
number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to effect in full a
conversion of the Debentures will cause the Holder to suffer damages in an
amount that will be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, the parties agree that
it is appropriate to include in this Agreement a provision for liquidated
damages. The parties acknowledge and agree that the liquidated damages provision
set forth in this section represents the parties' good faith effort to quantify
such damages and, as such, agree that the form and amount of such liquidated
damages are reasonable and will not constitute a penalty. The payment of
liquidated damages shall not relieve the Company from its obligations to deliver
the Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
(i) Redemption. The Company reserves the right, at its sole option, to
call a mandatory redemption of any percentage of the balance on the Debentures
not then converted as follows: In the event the Company exercises such right of
redemption anytime following the Closing Date, it shall pay the Holder, in U.S.
currency One Hundred Twenty percent (120%) of the face amount of the Debentures
to be redeemed (the "Redemption Amount"), plus accrued interest. The date by
which the Debentures must be delivered to the escrow agent shall not be later
than ten (10) business days following the date the Company notifies the Holder
by facsimile of the redemption. The Company shall give the Holder at least ten
(10) business day's notice of its intent to redeem and wire the funds necessary
to redeem the Debentures to the escrow agent on or before the expiration of said
ten (10) business days during which time the Purchaser may continue to convert.
Furthermore, in the event such Redemption Amount is not timely paid, any rights
of the Company to such redemption shall terminate, and the Company shall not be
entitled to make any partial or full redemption of the unconverted Debentures
thereafter.
(j) The Company shall furnish to Holder such number of prospectuses and
other documents incidental to the registration of the shares of Common Stock
underlying the Debentures and the shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of
interest on the Debentures, including any amendment of or supplements thereto.
(k) Limits on Amount of Conversion and Ownership. In no event shall the
Holder be entitled to convert any of the Debentures to the extent that, after
such conversion, the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common
Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the
unconverted portion of the Debentures), and (2) the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Debentures with respect to which the
determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial
ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock (after taking into account the shares to be issued to the
Holder upon such conversion). For purposes of the proviso to the immediately
preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
Act"), except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such proviso. The Holder
further agrees that if the Holder transfers or assigns any of the Debentures
such transfer or assignment shall be made subject to the transferee's or
assignee's specific agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Section as
if such transferee or assignee were a signatory to the Subscription Agreement.
(l) Payment of Taxes. The Company shall pay all documentary stamp taxes,
if any, attributable to the initial issuance of the Common Stock; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which
may be payable, (i) with respect to any secondary transfer of the Debentures or
the Common Stock issuable upon exercise hereof or (ii) as a result of the
issuance of the Common Stock to any person other than the Holder, and the
Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate for any Common
Stock unless and until the person requesting the issuance thereof shall have
paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have produced evidence that
such tax has been paid to the appropriate taxing authority.
Section 3.3. Company to Reserve Stock. The Company shall reserve the
number of shares of Common Stock required pursuant to and upon the terms set
forth in the Subscription Agreement, to permit the conversion of this Debenture.
All shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon the
5
<PAGE> 6
conversion hereof shall upon issuance be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the
issuance thereof.
Section 3.4. Restrictions on Transfer. This Debenture has not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Act") and is
being issued under Section 4(2) of the Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D
promulgated under the Act. This Debenture and the Common Stock issuable upon the
conversion thereof may only be offered or sold pursuant to registration under or
an exemption from the Act.
Section 3.5. Mergers, Etc. If the Company merges or consolidates with
another corporation or sells or transfers all or substantially all of its assets
to another person and the holders of the Common Stock are entitled to receive
stock, securities or property in respect of or in exchange for Common Stock,
then as a condition of such merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, the Company
and any such successor, purchaser or transferee shall amend this Debenture to
provide that it may thereafter be converted on the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth above into the kind and amount of stock, securities or
property receivable upon such merger, consolidation, sale or transfer by a
holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Debenture might
have been converted immediately before such merger, consolidation, sale or
transfer, subject to adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be
practicable to adjustments provided for in this Article 3. Article 4. Mergers
The Company shall not consolidate or merge into, or transfer all or
substantially all of its assets to, any person, unless such person assumes in
writing the obligations of the Company under this Debenture and immediately
after such transaction no Event of Default exists. Any reference herein to the
Company shall refer to such surviving or transferee corporation and the
obligations of the Company shall terminate upon such written assumption. Article
5. Reports
The Company will mail to the Holder hereof at its address as shown on
the Register a copy of any annual, quarterly or other report or proxy statement
that it gives to its shareholders generally at the time such report or statement
is sent to shareholders. Article 6. Defaults and Remedies
Section 6.1. Events of Default. An "Event of Default" occurs if (a) the
Company does not make the payment of the principal of this Debenture when the
same becomes due and payable at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise, (b) the
Company does not make a payment, other than a payment of principal, for a period
of five (5) business days thereafter, (c) any of the Company's representations
or warranties contained in the Subscription Agreement or this Debenture were
false when made or the Company fails to comply with any of its other agreements
in the Subscription Agreement or this Debenture and such failure continues for
the period and after the notice specified below, (d) the Company shall have its
Common Stock suspended or delisted from any exchange or the over-the-counter
market from trading for in excess of five (5) consecutive trading days, or (e)
the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law (as
hereinafter defined): (i) commences a voluntary case; (ii) consents to the entry
of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case; (iii) consents to the
appointment of a Custodian (as hereinafter defined) of it or for all or
substantially all of its property or (iv) makes a general assignment for the
benefit of its creditors or (v) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an
order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: (A) is for relief against the
Company in an involuntary case; (B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for
all or substantially all of its property or (C) orders the liquidation of the
Company, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days, (e)
the Company's Common Stock is no longer listed on any recognized exchange
including electronic over-the-counter bulletin board. As used in this Section
6.1, the term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11 of the United States Code or any
similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term "Custodian"
means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official under any
Bankruptcy Law. A default under clause (c) above is not an Event of Default
until the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the
Debentures outstanding notify the Company of such default and the Company
6
<PAGE> 7
does not cure it within five (5) business days after the receipt of such notice,
which must specify the default, demand that it be remedied and state that it is
a "Notice of Default".
Section 6.2. Acceleration. If an Event of Default occurs and is
continuing, the Holder hereof by notice to the Company, may declare the
remaining principal amount of this Debenture, together with all accrued interest
and any liquidated damages, to be due and payable. Upon such declaration, the
remaining principal amount shall be due and payable immediately. Article 7.
Registered Debentures
Section 7.1. Series. This Debenture is one of a numbered series of
Debentures which are identical except as to the principal amount and date of
issuance thereof and as to any restriction on the transfer thereof in order to
comply with the Securities Act of 1933 and the regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder. Such Debentures are referred to
herein collectively as the "Debentures".
Section 7.2. Record Ownership. The Company, or its attorney, shall
maintain a register of the holders of the Debentures (the "Register") showing
their names and addresses and the serial numbers and principal amounts of
Debentures issued to or transferred of record by them from time to time. The
Register may be maintained in electronic, magnetic or other computerized form.
The Company may treat the person named as the Holder of this Debenture in the
Register as the sole owner of this Debenture. The Holder of this Debenture is
the person exclusively entitled to receive payments of interest on this
Debenture, receive notifications with respect to this Debenture, convert it into
Common Stock and otherwise exercise all of the rights and powers as the absolute
owner hereof.
Section 7.3. Registration of Transfer. Transfers of this Debenture may
be registered on the books of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant
to Section 7.2 above (i.e., the Register). Transfers shall be registered when
this Debenture is presented to the Company with a request to register the
transfer hereof and the Debenture is duly endorsed by the appropriate person,
reasonable assurances are given that the endorsements are genuine and effective,
and the Company has received evidence satisfactory to it that such transfer is
rightful and in compliance with all applicable laws, including tax laws and
state and federal securities laws. When this Debenture is presented for transfer
and duly transferred hereunder, it shall be canceled and a new Debenture showing
the name of the transferee as the record holder thereof shall be issued in lieu
hereof. When this Debenture is presented to the Company with a reasonable
request to exchange it for an equal principal amount of Debentures of other
denominations, the Company shall make such exchange and shall cancel this
Debenture and issue in lieu thereof Debentures having a total principal amount
equal to this Debenture in such denominations as agreed to by the Company and
Holder.
Section 7.4. Worn or Lost Debentures. If this Debenture becomes worn,
defaced or mutilated but is still substantially intact and recognizable, the
Company or its agent may issue a new Debenture in lieu hereof upon its
surrender. Where the Holder of this Debenture claims that the Debenture has been
lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue a new Debenture in
place of the original Debenture if the Holder so requests by written notice to
the Company actually received by the Company before it is notified that the
Debenture has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser and the Holder has
delivered to the Company an indemnity bond in such amount and issued by such
surety as the Company deems satisfactory together with an affidavit of the
Holder setting forth the facts concerning such loss, destruction or wrongful
taking and such other information in such form with such proof or verification
as the Company may request.
Article 8. Dilution.
The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Debentures may increase substantially in certain circumstances. The Company's
executive officers and directors have studied and fully understand the nature of
the transactions contemplated by this Debenture and recognize that they have a
potential dilutive effect. The board of directors of the Company has concluded,
in its good faith business judgment, that such issuance is in the best interests
of the Company. The Company specifically acknowledges that its obligation to
issue additional shares of Common Stock is binding upon
7
<PAGE> 8
the Company and enforceable regardless of the dilution such issuance may have on
the ownership interests of other shareholders of the Company.
Article 9. Notices
Any notice which is required or convenient under the terms of this
Debenture shall be duly given if it is in writing and delivered in person or
mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid and directed to the Holder of the
Debenture at its address as it appears on the Register or if to the Company to
its principal executive offices. The time when such notice is sent shall be the
time of the giving of the notice.
Article 10. Time
Where this Debenture authorizes or requires the payment of money or the
performance of a condition or obligation on a Saturday or Sunday or a public
holiday, or authorizes or requires the payment of money or the performance of a
condition or obligation within, before or after a period of time computed from a
certain date, and such period of time ends on a Saturday or a Sunday or a public
holiday, such payment may be made or condition or obligation performed on the
next succeeding business day, and if the period ends at a specified hour, such
payment may be made or condition performed, at or before the same hour of such
next succeeding business day, with the same force and effect as if made or
performed in accordance with the terms of this Debenture. A "business day" shall
mean a day on which the banks in California are not required or allowed to be
closed.
