RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the following risks before you decide to
buy our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below are the
material ones facing our company. If any of the following risks actually occur,
our business, revenues, financial condition or results of operations would
likely suffer. If this occurs, you may lose all or part of the money you paid to
buy our common stock.
Our operations may fail if we are unable to obtain additional financing
Our capital requirements are and will continue to be significant. We
cannot assure you that we will be able to operate on a profitable basis or that
cash flow from operations will be sufficient to pay our operating costs. We
anticipate that our current cash resources will be sufficient to fund operations
through the end of December 2000. Thereafter, we will need to raise additional
capital to finance our operations. We anticipate seeking additional financing
through debt or equity financings. We cannot assure you that additional
financing will be available to us, or, if available, any financing will be on
terms acceptable or favorable to us. We cannot assure you that our estimate of
our anticipated capital needs is accurate or that new business developments or
other unforeseen events will not occur that will result in the need to raise
additional funds. If we cannot raise additional funds, further development of
our technology and upgrades to our existing products may be delayed and we
otherwise may not be able to execute our business plan, all of which may have a
material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition.
You may be unable to effectively evaluate our company for investment purposes,
because we have a limited operating history
We had no material operations prior to May 1, 1999. Accordingly, we
have a very limited operating history upon which you may evaluate us. To date we
have generated limited revenue. In addition, our revenue model is evolving.
Under our model, we expect to generate a substantial portion of our revenues
from our licensing agreements with our licensees. Under our licensing
agreements, we receive a percentage of the net gaming revenue generated from a
licensee's site. However, we may not be able to generate revenues through these
agreements or other sources. We cannot guaranty or accurately predict our future
results of operations.
If we continue to incur significant operating losses, you could lose all or a
substantial portion of your investment
We commenced operations in May 1999 and to date, we have not been
profitable. We expect to continue to incur significant operating losses and to
generate negative cash flow from operating activities for the foreseeable
future. We incurred net losses of $975,152 for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.
As of March 31, 2000, our accumulated deficit was $2,699,726. We may never be
profitable, or, if we become profitable, we may be unable to sustain
profitability. Our limited operating history makes predicting our future
operating results difficult. An investor in our securities must consider the
risks and difficulties frequently encountered by early stage companies in new
and rapidly evolving markets, particularly those involved in the Internet and
electronic commerce. These risks include:
the level of use of the Internet and online services, and consumer
acceptance of the Internet and online services;
our inability to generate significant licensing revenue, as well as revenue
from advertising and e-commerce;
the inability of our licensees to maintain and increase levels of traffic
on their respective web sites;
our failure to anticipate and adapt to a developing market;
our inability to upgrade and develop our systems and infrastructure and
attract new personnel in a timely and effective manner;
the failure of our licensees' servers and networking systems to efficiently
handle web traffic; and
our inability to effectively manage rapidly expanding operations.
If revenues grow more slowly than we anticipate, or if operating expenses exceed
our expectations or cannot be adjusted as necessary, our business, revenues,
results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected.
Period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not be helpful to you
in evaluating a potential investment in our company, because we expect our
quarterly results to fluctuate
We expect that our quarterly operating results will fluctuate
significantly due to many factors, including:
4
<PAGE>
our ability to attract and retain licensees;
pending or to be proposed government regulation of the gaming industry;
new Internet sites, services or products introduced by us or our
competitors;
uncertain acceptance of our Internet gaming software;
management of our growth; and
risks associated with potential acquisitions.
Many of these factors are beyond our control. Due to the limited
history of businesses relying on the Internet as a commercial medium, we believe
that period-to-period comparisons of our operating results are not meaningful.
If we fail to establish, maintain and strengthen our brand name, we may be
unable to attract additional licensees of our products and services
In order to expand our licensee base, solidify our business
relationships and successfully implement our business strategy, we must
establish, maintain and strengthen our brand name. For us to be successful in
establishing our brand name, potential licensees must perceive us as a reliable
source of sophisticated gaming and financial transaction processing software. We
expect that we will need to increase substantially our marketing budget to
establish brand name recognition and brand loyalty. If we have licensee and
customer complaints, our reputation may be significantly damaged, which could
have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition. If our licensees do not perceive our existing technologies, products
and services to be of high quality or if we alter or modify our brand image,
introduce new services or enter into new business ventures that are not
favorably received, the value of our brand could be diminished, which could
decrease interest in our technologies, products and services.
Our operations may fail if Internet gaming software generally, or our products
and services specifically, are not commercially accepted
Our success will depend in large part on widespread licensee and
consumer acceptance of Internet gaming software. The development of a market for
Internet gaming software and specifically our technology and products has only
recently begun, is rapidly evolving and likely will be characterized by an
increasing number of market entrants. Our future growth, if any, will depend on
the following critical factors:
the growth of the Internet as a commerce medium generally, and as a market
for Internet gaming software and services specifically;
our ability to successfully and cost-effectively market our services to a
sufficiently large number of licensees and customers; and
our ability to overcome a perception among many potential licensees and
consumers that using Internet gaming software is risky.
We cannot assure you that the market for our technologies, products and
services will develop or that licensees and consumers will significantly
increase their use of the Internet for gaming software. Accordingly, it is very
difficult to predict the future growth rate of the market in which we operate.
Demand and market acceptance for our products and services generally are subject
to a high level of uncertainty and risk. We cannot assure you that the markets
for our technologies and products will stabilize or become sustainable. If the
markets fail to develop, develop slower than expected or become saturated with
competitors, we may not enter into additional license agreements and we may not
recognize substantial revenue from our existing licenses, all of which would be
materially adverse to our operations.
We have entered into license agreements with three licensees. We cannot
assure you that we will be able to attract additional licensees. In addition, we
need to expend substantial additional efforts and expenditures to enhance the
capabilities of our technologies and products. If we are unable to enhance our
initial products or develop new products, we may not be able to maintain or
increase our licensee base, which will have a material adverse effect on our
business, results of operations and financial condition. If our technologies,
products and services do not achieve widespread market acceptance, our business,
results of operations and financial condition would be adversely affected.
If we are unable to maintain our relationships with certain third parties our
operations may suffer
We are in an early stage of development and are continuing to establish
internal management, personnel and other resources. We depend substantially upon
third parties for several critical elements of our business, including among
others, promotion and marketing, technology and infrastructure development and
distribution activities. The services of all of our
5
<PAGE>
management, except Mr. Coffey, our President, and the services of substantially
all of our other personnel are provided through Services Agreements with
Kazootek.com Technologies Inc., a related party, and El Moro Finance Ltd. These
agreements are terminable upon thirty days notice from either party. In
addition, we engage in our promotion and marketing technology, infrastructure
development and distribution services in office space provided by Kazootek and
El Moro. If we are unable to maintain our relationships with Kazootek and El
Moro, we will need to retain executives and other employees to perform these job
responsibilities and we will need to identify suitable property to relocate
these operations. We may not be able to retain these employees or locate
alternative property on a timely basis, or at all, or at commercially reasonable
rates, all of which will have a materially adverse effect on our business and
results of operations.
The enactment of new laws, or the interpretation of current laws, may restrict
Internet gaming activities which may have an adverse effect on our operations
We are subject to applicable laws in the jurisdictions in which we
operate and our licensees are subject to applicable laws in the jurisdictions in
which they operate. Many jurisdictions have attempted to restrict or prohibit
Internet gaming. As companies and consumers involved in Internet gaming are
located around the world, there is uncertainty regarding exactly which
government has jurisdiction or authority to regulate or legislate with respect
to various aspects of the industry. Furthermore, it may be difficult to identify
or differentiate gaming-related transactions from other Internet activities and
link these transmissions to specific users, in turn making enforcement of
legislation aimed at restricting Internet gaming activities difficult. If
existing regulations are interpreted to prohibit or restrict Internet gambling
and are enforced, or if new regulations are enacted which are designed to
prohibit Internet gambling, our licensees may be found to violate these
regulations and may be required to cease operations of their sites. Moreover, if
existing regulations are interpreted to apply to suppliers of gaming software,
if new laws applicable to suppliers are enacted that restrict our activities or
if our operations are interpreted to extend beyond software development, we may
be required to cease or restrict our development, marketing and licensing
activities. The uncertainty surrounding the regulation of Internet gaming and
any adverse interpretation and subsequent enforcement of existing or new laws
relating to Internet gambling could have a material adverse effect on our
business, revenues, operating results and financial condition.
Governments in the United States and other jurisdictions may in the future
adopt legislation that restricts or prohibits Internet gaming. After previous
similar bills failed to pass in 1998, in 1999, Senator Jon Kyl of the United
States Senate introduced a revised bill intended to prohibit and criminalize
Internet gambling. On November 19, 1999, the Senate passed this bill. On July
17, 2000, the House of Representatives failed to pass a proposed companion bill,
H.R. 3125, entitled the "Internet Gambling Prohibition Act of 2000." This
proposed bill would have made it a federal crime for any person engaging a
gambling business to knowingly use the Internet or any other interactive
computer service to place, receive or otherwise make a bet or wager, or to send,
receive, or invite information assisting in the placing of a bet or wager. We
cannot assure you whether the Kyl bill or any similar bill will become law.
Should the Kyl Bill be passed in its present form, it would eliminate most
arguments that Internet gambling is legal in the United States, and in order to
avoid violation, would force owner/operators to provide a mechanism whereby
Internet gaming Web sites were inaccessible to citizens of the United States.
In addition, existing United States federal statutes and state laws
could be construed to prohibit or restrict gaming through the use of the
Internet. To date, we license technologies and products and offer support
services solely to non-U.S. based licensees. Governmental authorities may view
us and/or our licensees as having violated these statutes or laws. Several state
Attorney Generals and court decisions have upheld the application of state
anti-gambling laws to Internet casino companies.
United States or other jurisdictions may initiate criminal or civil
proceedings against us and/or our licensees, and these proceedings could involve
substantial litigation expense, penalties and fines. In addition, these
proceedings may divert the attention of our key executives, and may result in
injunctions or other prohibitions against us and/or our licensees.
In addition, as electronic commerce further develops, it generally may
be the subject of government regulation. Current laws, which pre-date or are
incompatible with Internet electronic commerce, may be enforced in a manner that
restricts the electronic commerce market. These developments could have a
material adverse effect on our business, revenues, operating results and
financial condition.
If we are unable to compete effectively with existing or new competitors, we may
be required to reduce prices, enter into fewer contracts, or reduce margins
The market for Internet products and services is highly competitive and
there are no substantial barriers to entry. We expect that competition will
continue to intensify. Many of our Internet competitors have more experience
online and have greater brand recognition. We may not be able to compete
successfully in the Internet services market, which would prevent us from
effectively executing our business strategy. In addition, the market for
Internet products and services is characterized by rapid technological
developments, evolving industry standards, and frequent new products and
enhancements. If faster Internet access becomes more widely available through
6
<PAGE>
cable modems or other technologies, we may be required to make significant
changes to the design and content of our technologies and products to compete
effectively. As the number of web pages and users increase, we will need to
modify our Internet infrastructure and technologies and products to accommodate
increased traffic to our licensees' sites. If we cannot modify our technologies
and products, users may experience:
system disruptions;
slower response times;
impaired quality and speed of processing.
Gaming services over the Internet is a relatively new industry, and
licensees of our software will compete with existing and more established
recreational services and products, in addition to certain other forms of
entertainment. Our success will depend upon, among other things, our ability to
enhance our products and to develop and introduce new products and services that
keep pace with technological developments, respond to evolving licensee and
customer requirements and achieve strong brand name recognition. We compete with
several public and private companies that provide electronic commerce and/or
Internet gaming software. Many of these competitors have longer operating
histories, larger customer bases, greater brand recognition and significantly
greater financial, marketing, technical, management and other resources than we
do. Our failure to anticipate or respond adequately to technological development
and licensee and customer requirements or any significant delays in product
developments or introductions could result in price reductions, reduced revenues
and margins and loss of market share.
Pursuant to two revolving line of credit agreements with El Moro
Finance Ltd., we agreed to furnish an unrestricted open source code license to
all software developed by us for up to two years after the revolving line of
credit is converted or repaid in full as well as the domain name "ebanx.com" and
the European trademark to the name "ebanx." Therefore, El Moro potentially could
develop the source code into a software system and either become an
owner/operator of internet gaming websites itself, or license the software to
third parties and in either case, become our competitors. In the event that El
Moro requests transfer of the domain name and the trademark, we likely would
attempt to negotiate a license agreement for the use of these rights. If we
ultimately were unable to continue to use these properties, we may be required
to change the name associated with our financial transaction processing system.
We anticipate that we would incur certain marketing expenses in an effort to
brand our new name. In addition, we may lose potential business to the extent
the owner of these rights develops a processing system and associates the name
"ebanx," and in any event, face additional competition to our businesses.
We face hardware systems risks from natural disasters and third parties, and if
our communications service or that of our licensees is disrupted, our ability to
generate revenue will suffer
Our business model depends on the ability of cyberoad.com and on the
ability of our licensees to engage in global communications services, and both
are dependent upon third parties to deliver these services. Our results of
operations and financial condition will be materially adversely affected if we
or our licensees suffer disruptions in service. Fires, floods, earthquakes,
power losses, telecommunications failures, break-ins, civil disturbances, acts
of terrorism, strikes, and similar events could damage our communications
systems, or those of our licensees. Computer viruses, electronic break-ins or
other similar disruptive problems may also occur. Our business would be
adversely affected if our systems or the systems of our licensees were affected
by any of these occurrences. If there is damage to the facility in Costa Rica,
we do not believe we will suffer any material delay in the provision of services
to our licensees or in connection with our product development. In those
circumstances, however, we may be required to expend substantial sums to acquire
equipment and related assets in order to continue to operate our business
effectively.
Our operating results could be impaired if we become subject to burdensome
government regulations and legal uncertainties concerning the Internet
Due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is
possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to
the Internet, relating to:
user privacy;
pricing, usage fees and taxes;
content;
copyrights;
distribution;
characteristics and quality of products and services; and
online advertising and marketing.
7
<PAGE>
The adoption of any additional laws or regulations may decrease the
popularity or impede the expansion of the Internet and could seriously harm our
business. A decline in the popularity or growth of the Internet could decrease
demand for our products and services, reduce our revenues and margins and
increase our cost of doing business. Moreover, the applicability of existing
laws to the Internet is uncertain with regard to many important issues,
including property ownership, intellectual property, export of encryption
technology, libel and personal privacy. The application of laws and regulations
from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to our business, or the
application of existing laws and regulations to the Internet and other online
services, could also harm our business.
If the quality of a user's online service is poor, there may be less demand for
our products
Our licensees and their customers depend on Internet service providers,
online service providers and other website operators for access to our
technologies and products. Many of these users have experienced significant
outages in the past, and could experience outages, delays and other difficulties
due to system failures unrelated to our technologies or products. Additionally,
the Internet infrastructure may not be able to support continued growth in its
use. Any of these problems could result in a decrease demand for our products
and a decreased usage of our licensee's sites which would have a material
adverse affect on our business.
If consumers do not accept the Internet for commercial transactions, our ability
to generate revenues will be adversely affected
Our growth and operating results depend in part on widespread consumer
acceptance and use of the Internet as a way to transact business. This consumer
practice is at an early stage of development, and demand and continued market
acceptance is uncertain. We cannot predict the number of consumers that will be
willing to transact business over the Internet, rather than through traditional
outlets. The Internet may not become a viable commercial marketplace due to
inadequate development of network infrastructure and enabling technologies that
address consumer concerns about:
network performance;
security;
speed of access;
ease of use; and
bandwidth availability.
In addition, the Internet's viability as a commercial marketplace could
be adversely affected by increased government regulation. Changes in or
insufficient availability of telecommunications or other services to support the
Internet could also result in slower response times and adversely affect general
usage of the Internet. Also, negative publicity and consumer concern about the
security of transactions conducted on the Internet and the privacy of users may
also inhibit the growth of commerce on the Internet.
Online security risks could seriously harm our business
A significant barrier to electronic commerce is the secure exchange of
value over public networks. We rely on encryption and authentication technology
to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect the secure
exchange of value, including public key cryptography technology licensed from
VeriSign Inc. and private key Data Encryption Standard, or DES, cryptography.
Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography
or other events or developments may result in a compromise or breach of the
VeriSign Inc. technology, DES or other algorithms we use to protect customer
transaction data. If a breach of these technologies occurred, we could be
subject to lawsuits and our reputation would be significantly damaged.
Our business model is predicated on our licensees being able to provide
secure online financial transaction processing for their clients. We cannot
assure you that international financial institutions and banks will continue to
process the transactions of our licensees' clients in the future. As a large
portion of our revenues is based on a percentage of the revenues generated by
our licenses, any disruption in the processing of these transactions would
result in a disruption to the licensee's business, and would have an adverse
effect on our business.
8
<PAGE>
Any future acquisitions we make of companies or technologies may result in
disruptions to our business
We may acquire or make investments in complementary businesses,
technologies, services or products. These acquisitions and investments could
disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees and increase
our expenses. If we acquire a company, we could have difficulty integrating that
company's personnel, operations, technology and software into ours. In addition,
the key personnel of the acquired company may decide not to work for us. We
could also have difficulty in integrating the acquired products, services or
technologies into our operations and we may incur indebtedness or issue equity
securities to pay for a future acquisition. The issuance of securities could be
dilutive to our existing stockholders.
Our senior management and expert consultants have limited experience in our
industry and may not be able to execute our business plan.
Our success will depend largely upon the personal efforts of members of
management and expert consultants including Mr. John Coffey, President, Mr.
Brent Corobotuic, Manager, Functionality Design, Mr. Orlando Guerrero, Director,
Mr. Carl Schmidt, Chief Information Officer, Mr. Joseph Chin, Chief Systems
Officer and Mr. Calvin Ayre, Internet Business Model and Product Consultant.
Most of our senior management has no direct experience in founding other
companies or developing other technologies and products similar to ours. We
cannot assure you that our senior management or consultants will be successful
in efficiently executing our business strategy or in recruiting a senior group
of experienced executives, consultants and personnel.
If we cannot attract new personnel or retain and motivate our current personnel,
our business will be adversely affected.
Competition for personnel throughout our industry is intense. We may be
unable to retain our key employees or to attract, integrate or retain other
highly qualified employees in the future. Our success depends on our continuing
ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled employees, particularly
with respect to our technology development and support. We expect that hiring
and retaining employees with appropriate qualifications will be difficult.
Our business model depends on our ability to develop a complex global marketing
and sales program and future strategic partnerships. Any failure to develop
these programs may inhibit our growth.
Our business requires marketing, brand development and sales on a
global basis as well as the formation of strategic partnerships globally,
nationally and regionally to assist in a focused marketing effort, and to
provide financial strength. We cannot assure you that we will succeed in
developing and managing a complex marketing and sales strategy resulting in
reasonable penetration of our technologies into our target markets on a timely
basis. We cannot assure you that we will develop these strategic partnerships on
a timely basis, or at all, or develop an adequate number of strategic
partnerships to successfully market our technologies and products globally. If
we do not effectively implement our marketing strategy, we may not grow our
business or increase our sales.
We depend on certain licensees for a substantial portion of our revenue, and the
loss of one or more of these licensees could have an adverse effect on our
operations
A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from our current three
licensees. We expect that a substantial portion of our revenue through December
31, 2000 will continue to depend on a small number of licensees. The loss of one
or more of these licensees would have a material adverse effect on our ability
to generate revenue, our operating results and financial condition.
If we are unable to protect our trademarks and intellectual property rights, our
reputation and brand could be impaired and we could lose licensees
We regard our trademarks, trade secrets and similar intellectual
property as critical to our success. We rely on intellectual property law and
confidentiality and/or license agreements with employees, licensees, customers,
providers and others to protect our proprietary rights. We cannot be certain
that we have taken adequate steps to protect our proprietary rights, especially
in countries where the laws may not protect our rights as fully as in the United
States. In addition, third parties may infringe or misappropriate our
proprietary rights, and we could be required to incur significant expenses to
preserve them. We have applied for the registration of some of our trademarks
and service marks in the United States and some other countries. Even if we are
9
<PAGE>
able to register these names, registration may not adequately protect us against
infringement by others. Effective trademark, service mark, copyright and trade
secret protection may not be available in every country in which our products
and services are made available online. If we are not able to protect our
trademarks and other intellectual property, we may experience difficulties in
achieving and maintaining brand recognition and customer loyalty.
Other parties may assert infringement or unfair competition claims
against us. We cannot predict whether third parties will assert claims of
infringement against us, or whether any assertions or prosecutions will
adversely affect our business. If we are forced to defend against any of these
claims, whether meritless or not, we may face costly litigation and diversion of
technical and management personnel. As a result of these disputes, we may have
to expend significant resources to develop or acquire non-infringing property.
Alternatively, we may need to pursue royalty or licensing agreements, which may
not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read together with the
consolidated financial statements of cyberoad.com and the notes to those
consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. This
discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting the consolidated
operating results, financial condition and liquidity and cash flows of
cyberoad.com for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1999. Except for historical information, the matters discussed in
this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations are forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties
and are based upon judgments concerning various factors that are beyond our
control. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the
forward looking statements as a result of, among other things, the factors
described in "Risk Factors" included elsewhere in this prospectus.
Overview
cyberoad.com was incorporated in June 1988 and conducted no material
operations prior to May 1, 1999. On May 1, 1999, cyberoad.com Corporation
purchased all of the stock of Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd., a corporation
existing under the laws of the Isle of Man. Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd. had
no material operations prior to May 1, 1999. Immediately thereafter,
Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd. purchased certain assets of Cyberoad Gaming
Corporation relating to the online gaming technology. On May 1, 1999, Ecomm
Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited, a corporation existing under the laws
of the Isle of Man, purchased certain assets of Cyberoad Gaming Corporation
relating to the financial transaction processing system. On November 11, 1999,
Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd. purchased all of the outstanding shares of Ecomm
Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited. Pursuant to an agreement dated as of
October 31, 1999, Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited transferred all
of its assets other than those assets relating to technology to Corporacion
Ebanx.com, S.A., a corporation wholly owned by Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd.
and existing under the laws of Panama.
Our revenues are generated from data processing, financial transaction
processing, systems support and maintenance, marketing and other. All revenue
streams are recognized at the time services are provided except for systems
support and maintenance. Systems support and maintenance is derived from actual
wagering activity, and is recognized after verifiable events conclude. Direct
costs consist of actual costs incurred to generate revenues and consist
primarily of maintenance charges associated with the operations infrastructure,
telecommunications conductivity and office space of the call centers, e-commerce
transaction costs, direct marketing costs incurred, and third party software
licensing royalties.
Our annual and quarterly revenue will depend in large part upon the
successful development and market acceptance of our internet/intranet sportsbook
management software, Netbook Version 2, and our financial transaction processing
and payment system, which we refer to as our eBanx.com eCash system. If
accepted, we believe that revenues attributable to system support and
maintenance as well as licensing fees resulting from the sale of additional
licenses to third parties to set up and maintain sportsbook websites will
increase. Accordingly our annual and quarterly revenues are, and will continue
to be, extremely difficult to forecast.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2000
Revenues
Revenues are generated from four main sources: data processing,
financial transaction processing, systems support and maintenance, and
marketing. All revenues are recognized on an accrual basis as services are
rendered, except for systems support and maintenance, which is recognized as
events conclude.
For the three months ended March 31, 2000, revenues were $949,805. Of
this amount, we generated $166,362 from fees from our licensees for providing
the operations infrastructure, telecommunications conductivity and related items
for the call centers. Fees are billed on a monthly basis as services are
rendered. We generated transaction processing revenue of $285,430 as a result of
processing e-commerce transactions. Fees are billed on a monthly basis based on
actual transactions processed. We generated systems support and maintenance
revenue of $303,664, which is recognized as a result of developing, maintaining
and supporting licensees' websites. Fees attributable to systems support and
maintenance revenue consist of a percentage of the net gaming revenue based on
wagering activity on a licensee's site and is recognized and retained as events
conclude. We generated marketing revenue of $182,301 based on direct marketing
efforts performed on behalf of licensees to promote their respective websites.

Fiscal Years Ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997
There were no significant activities performed by cyberoad.com in the
fiscal years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2000, cyberoad.com's principal source of liquidity was
approximately $1,163,704 in cash, which was primarily raised through equity
financings completed in the prior fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 and a
revolving line of credit executed on February 28, 2000.
Net cash used in operating activities during the year ended December
31, 1999 was $1,283,451 and for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was
$777,187. Cash used in operating activities during the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1999 was primarily due to the start up of Ecomm Relationship
Technologies (IOM) Limited, the development of Netbook Version 2 software and
the increase in accounts receivable due from licensees, and the purchase of
prepaid assets. The cost of the start up and development of software has been
offset by cash deposits received from Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM)
Limited customers. Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 resulted primarily from the further development of Netbook
Version 2 Software, increased expenses related to the Offering, increased
accounts receivable, and increased customer and merchant deposits offset by a
decrease in prepaid expenses and an increase in accounts payable.
Net cash used in investing activities during the year ended December
31, 1999 was $1,166,332 and for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was
$114,861, and was primarily due to the purchase of computer hardware and
software and office furniture.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December
31, 1999was $3,785,317 and for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was
$493,117. Cash provided by financing activities during the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1999 was primarily provided from the issuance of capital stock
pursuant to equity offerings. Cash provided by financing activities during the
three months ended March 31, 2000 was provided from a revolving line of credit
and net advances from related parties offset by payment of capital lease
obligations.
On July 3, 1999, cyberoad.com closed a private placement of 1,400,000
shares of common stock, which were issued to investors at $1.43 per share. The
offering raised net proceeds of $1,865,019. On November 11, 1999, cyberoad.com
issued an aggregate of 648,859 shares of common stock, which were issued to
investors at $3.50 per share. The offering raised net proceeds of $2,031,516.
These offerings were made pursuant to Regulation S of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended. The shares were issued to non U.S. Persons, as defined in
Regulation S.

<PAGE>
At December 10, 1999, cyberoad.com entered into a revolving line of
credit agreement with El Moro Finance Ltd., a company existing under the laws of
the British Virgin Islands. The agreement provided for a revolving line of
credit to be made available to cyberoad.com in the amount of $500,000. Upon the
advancement of funds, cyberoad.com agreed to make interest payments on the first
day of every month. The interest payments would consist of either a compounded
annual rate of 10% of the funds advanced per annum only, or compound annual
interest payments of prime (Switzerland) plus 2% of the funds advanced, per
annum only, for the first year of instatement of the revolving line of credit.
Also upon the advancement of funds, cyberoad.com agreed to furnish to El Moro an
unrestricted open source code license to all software developed by cyberoad.com
for up to two years after the revolving line of credit is converted or repaid in
full. El Moro potentially could develop that source code into a software system
and either become an owner/operator of internet gaming websites itself, or
license the software to third parties and in either case become our competitors.
Since March 1, 2000, cyberoad.com accrued interest at prime (Switzerland) plus
2%, payable on demand to El Moro. On June 27, 2000 cyberoad.com entered into a
Transfer of Ownership Agreement with El Moro, whereby cyberoad.com transferred
100% of the outstanding capital stock of Sistemas de Informacion Tecnologica, a
corporation existing under the laws of Costa Rica, and Informacion y Tecnologia
Canadiense, a corporation existing under the laws of Costa Rica, to El Moro as
payment of cyberoad's revolving line of credit in the amount of $500,000 plus
interest accrued to June 27, 2000 (the "Payoff Amount"). The difference between
the Payoff Amount and the book value of the companies to June 27, 2000 is
hereinafter referred to as the "Shortfall." cyberoad also granted to El Moro for
a six month period, the option to convert the Shortfall into shares of common
stock of cyberoad, with each share of common stock of cyberoad valued at the ten
trading day average (ending on the day prior to a request to convert) of the
closing sale prices as reported by the exchange, quotation service or over the
counter trading system on which cyberoad may then be listed, or if none, at the
price of the last financing completed by cyberoad. El Moro may convert the
Shortfall in whole or in part; provided however if the Shortfall has not been
converted in full within six months of June 27, 2000, the remaining amount of
the Shortfall shall automatically be converted into shares of common stock of
cyberoad pursuant to the per share value set forth above.
At February 24, 2000, cyberoad.com entered into an additional revolving
line of credit agreement with El Moro Finance Ltd., for a revolving line of
credit up to $200,000. As of July 1, 2000, no funds have been advanced under
this agreement. Upon the advance of funds, cyberoad.com agreed to make interest
payments on the first day of every month. The interest payments would consist of
either a compounded annual rate of 10% of the funds advanced per annum only, or
compound annual interest payments of prime (Switzerland) plus 2% of the funds
advanced, per annum only, for the first year of instatement of the revolving
line of credit. In consideration for the revolving line of credit, cyberoad.com
agreed to furnish to El Moro the ownership of the domain name "ebanx.com" and
the European trademark to the name "eBanx," which was owned by eComm
Relationship Technologies (Isle of Mann) Limited. As of July 1, 2000, no request
has been made by El Moro to transfer the ownership of the domain name
"ebanx.com" and the European trademark to the name "eBanx." In the event that El
Moro requests transfer of the domain name and the trademark, we likely would
attempt to negotiate a license agreement for the use of these rights. If we
ultimately were unable to continue to use these properties, we may change the
name associated with our financial transaction processing system. We anticipate
that we would incur certain marketing expenses in an effort to brand our new
name. In addition, we may lose potential business to the extent the owner of
these rights develops a processing system and associates the name "ebanx," and
in any event, face additional competition to our businesses. As of June 1, 2000,
cyberoad.com entered into an Asset Pledge and Release Agreement with El Moro,
Kazootek.com, and Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd., whereby cyberoad.com pledged
all of its operational assets and its ownership of Ebanx Limited, a Nevada
corporation and Corporacion Ebanx.com, S.A., a corporation existing under the
laws of Panama, as collateral for its obligations to Kazootek.com under the
Services Agreement.
We have minimal commitments for capital expenditures. Pursuant to our
Service Agreements with Kazootek.com Technologies, Inc. and El Moro Finance
Ltd., we are financially obligated, on a month-to-month basis, for payments
equal to the cost of the services provided plus 10%. These costs include
software development, web development, network systems administration, human
resources, accounting, corporate finance and securities administration,
consulting, marketing and communications, technology development and management.
Please refer to "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions" for a
discussion of our Services Agreement with Kazootek.com. Pursuant to our Service
Agreement with El Moro Finance Ltd., we are financially obligated for payments
equal to the cost of the services provided plus 10%. These costs include
software development and marketing, web development, network systems
administration, human resources administration, consulting, operation and
management services.

<PAGE>
We continually evaluate various financing strategies to be utilized in
expanding our business and to fund future growth or acquisitions. Our future
capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the timing and rate
of the expansion of our business. From time to time, in the ordinary course of
business, we expect to evaluate potential acquisitions of businesses, services
or technologies and strategic relationships. At this time, however, we do not
have any present understandings, commitments or agreements with respect to any
material acquisition. To the extent that existing resources and future earnings
are insufficient to fund our activities, we may need to raise additional funds
through debt or equity financings. We cannot assure you that any additional
financing will be available or that, if available, it can be obtained on terms
favorable to us and our stockholders. In addition, any equity financing could
result in dilution to our stockholders. Our inability to obtain adequate funds
would adversely affect our operations and ability to implement our strategy.
Management anticipates that the net proceeds from its July 3, 1999 and
November 11, 1999 offerings, combined with cash flow from operations and its
bank line of credit will provide adequate liquidity to fund its business growth
plans and its operations until the end of December 2000.

hosting on web servers and databases located outside of the United States, as
well as ongoing technical support and marketing services for our licensees. In
November 1999, we released Version 2 of our sportsbook system, which enables us
to more easily add new sports and betting features and allows service to a
greater number of users at any one time.
We also have developed a proprietary e-commerce financial transaction
processing system for use by our licensees. Our licensees are able to provide
secure financial transaction processing for their customers, the end user.
Currently, our primary use for our e-commerce platform is as an online stored
value system and an economic relationship management system. The online stored
value system allows customers to purchase digital cash that they can use at any
time when gaming on our licensees' web sites. The economic relationship
management system primarily serves to manage the financial accounts of customers
that use our licensees' web sites.
cyberoad.com was incorporated in June 1988 under the name Sunshine
Equities Corporation. The name was changed to LAL Ventures in August 1998, and
subsequently to cyberoad.com Corporation in May 1999. cyberoad.com conducted no
material operations prior to May 1, 1999. On May 1, 1999, cyberoad.com
Corporation purchased all of the stock of Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd., a
corporation existing under the laws of the Isle of Man. Cyberoad.com (Isle of

A GAMING INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
The projections discussed in this Industry Overview section are
industry projections, and any growth rates discussed are industry growth rates
and may not reflect our growth rates over the same period.
The Internet and E-commerce
The Internet is an increasingly significant global medium for
communication, entertainment and commerce. Internet use is growing rapidly.
Jupiter Communications, a research, consulting and publishing firm specializing
in emerging consumer online and interactive technologies estimates in an April
1999 study that the number of Web users in the U.S. alone is expected to grow
from approximately 100 million in 1999 to approximately 160 million by 2003.
E-commerce has become the new wave of buying and selling goods over the
Internet. E-commerce describes the purchase of goods using some form of virtual
cash or credit. This new marketplace, which began with only a few powerful brand
names offering consumer goods over the Internet, has now grown to include many
distinct types of goods and services.
The rapid growth of the Internet as a tool for communication,
entertainment and e-commerce has resulted in a proliferation of websites dealing
with diverse topics, products and services. Websites that serve as search
engines such as America Online and Yahoo! developed in response to Internet
users' need for a simple means of navigating the Internet. As the number of
Internet users has increased, discrete user groups have developed that share the
same interests, such as people searching for gaming services. These groups have,
in turn, created a demand for more focused subject-specific websites. These
subject-specific websites are a growing segment of the Internet. Among the most
popular of these types of websites are those involved in Internet gaming, which
involves the placing of wagers via the Internet.
The Internet Gaming Industry
The global gaming industry began to capitalize on the rising popularity
of e-commerce in 1997. At that time, there were only approximately 40 gaming
websites worldwide. A gaming industry report published in January 2000 by Bear
Stearns, and available for purchase by contacting the Bear Stearns Research
Department at www.bearstearns.com, estimates that there are 250 companies
involved in operating or providing services to nearly 650 Internet gaming
websites. On the Internet today, gaming websites generally can be classified
into two groups: gaming sites dedicated to casino-style gaming exclusively and
gaming sites offering wagering on sporting events, lotteries, bingo and horse
racing. The companies involved in these Internet gaming websites can be
classified as either owner/operators or software suppliers.
Internet Gaming Software Suppliers
Most owner/operators of Internet gaming websites do not develop the
software that end users see and interact with on the website. Instead, software
suppliers that develop gaming software license the software to the
owner/operators of the websites, and often will license complete support
systems. The Bear Stearns report states that approximately twenty companies
consider themselves software suppliers. We are an example of a software supplier
that licenses our software and support systems to owner/operators of the
Internet gaming websites.
OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY
Our objective is to secure a position as a leading provider of Internet
gaming and financial transaction processing technologies. We intend to
accomplish our goal by:
Developing cyberoad.com into a global brand name through the marketing
of our licensees' gaming systems, and the development and marketing of
a sports and entertainment portal
Upgrading existing gaming systems by developing and implementing new
technology, and adding new sports and betting features
Adding new licensees
Expanding into international markets by adding Web servers overseas
Developing new gaming systems in a cost-effective and timely manner
Establishing key business alliances and strategic partnerships.
20
<PAGE>
OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Sportsbook Wagering
Initially, we chose to focus on the development of sports wagering
systems, which involve verifiable sporting events rather than casino wagering
systems, which involve random number events. We believe end users are more
trusting in the results of sports wagering events, as the outcome of the
sporting events are common knowledge and easily verifiable. Our sportsbook
wagering system consists of wagering and e-commerce software, and a scalable
network coupled with management infrastructure located in San Jose, Costa Rica
and British Columbia, Canada. A scalable system is one that continues to run
efficiently during periods of high traffic to the website. Our principal gaming
software system is called Netbook. Our e-commerce system consists of our secure
financial transaction processing software, and a high-speed network which
consists of a satellite, frame relay and Internet networking technology.
We believe three fundamental elements are necessary for our licensees
to successfully operate an international online sportsbook:
o Scalable network system that provides fast, secure and cost-effective
delivery of multimedia content to a large number of international
Internet customers;
o Secure financial transaction system that is fully encrypted and which
settles all financial transactions cost-effectively.
o Dynamic, browser-based content enabling customers to use unique, fast
and user-friendly software systems that provide both high volume
gaming transactions and extensive sports and casino information.
Netbook
Netbook is our proprietary Internet/Intranet sophisticated turnkey
sportsbook management system that allows sports enthusiasts with Internet access
to bet on a wide variety of sports on any computer system from anywhere in the
world. Netbook is designed to process wagers online and manage a high-volume
sportsbook. Users can access the Netbook through the Internet or a telephone
call center.
Unlike many other sportsbook software systems that require a download,
Netbook is a web browser-based application. This type of application allows the
customer to access our licensees' websites using platforms ranging from
Microsoft Windows and AOL to Macintosh and WebTV. Customers also are able to
access their accounts and place wagers from any computer, as they do not have to
download a specific software system to any one computer. We believe a
downloadable software system creates a barrier to participate for many potential
customers.
The system is inexpensive to install and administer, as operators and
managers in the call center can access Netbook via a web browser. This
browser-based system runs on most existing personal computers and is designed to
take advantage of the new Network Computers, such as Windows Terminals and Sun's
Java Station. The system can be monitored and managed, both technically and
financially from anywhere in the world.
In November 1999, we launched the Netbook Version 2 sports betting
system. We developed Netbook Version 2 using the Java programming language
incorporating many components of the Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition,
including Enterprise JavaBeans, JavaServer Pages and Java Servlets. Java is well
suited for Internet and e-commerce applications because it includes specific
facilities for network access, database access and web server programming that
are usually add-ons, and is the only programming language that allows us to run
our software on different computing platforms without significant modification.
Moreover, because Java is very portable, potential licensees of cyberoad.com do
not need to purchase large volumes of expensive computer equipment. These
potential licensees may commence business running on inexpensive computer
systems, and thereafter move to more powerful hardware when their client base
and transaction volume increase.
Netbook Version 2 uses the Versant Object Database, a high performance
database which we believe will enhance our ability to add new product features
and significantly increase the speed of our software development. Versant
eliminates the necessity of writing "translation" software, which in turn
removes a significant amount of work from our development cycle.
We believe that Netbook Version 2 provides cyberoad.com with
significant advantages over our competitors primarily in the following areas:
21
<PAGE>
Benefits to the Licensee
------------------------
Scalability. A scalable system is one that continues to work
------------
efficiently during periods of high traffic to the website. Netbook
Version 2 has been designed to enable sportsbooks to service up to
10,000 customers placing bets and accessing the odds lines
simultaneously, without any detectable change in delivery speed.
Also, Notebook Version 2 allows the addition of more server
hardware, rather than forcing the additional cost of completely
replacing old servers with new, faster systems.
Sportsbook Management Features. This feature can make or break a
-------------------------------
licensee's profit margin because the licensee can see and manage
the odds or "lines" in realtime and adjust its exposure
accordingly, as opposed to delayed time. This management feature
allows for a clear display of payout and revenue exposure on each
event the sportsbook has listed. Also, the Netbook Version 2
software package has flexible game setup where licensees may
customize event and line/odds features, complete auditing, adjust
the minimum/maximum wager enforcement, adjust payout rules and
display all odds formats.
Flexibility - It is critical to have a software system that allows
-----------
the quick addition of new products and features. Maximum
flexibility is a critical component of Netbook Version 2, which
allows us to add or change new betting and gaming features easily
and with minimal disruption to our licensee's service.
Benefits to the Player
----------------------
Betting Cart. Our new "Bet Cart" uses a shopping cart-style
-------------
interface to provide greater flexibility in placing bets. Players
are able to select games from various sports they want to bet on
and place them in their shopping cart, or Bet Cart. From the Bet
Cart, the player can select what games to play as single bets, and
what games to play as parlays or teasers. Parlays and teasers
involve a player betting on multiple sporting events as part of
one bet, for more favorable odds and winnings if the player
accurately predicts the result of each of the events. Once the
games are in the Bet Cart, the player never need return to the
odds page.
Open Bets - With Open Bets, the player can review a list of open
---------
bets placed, eliminating the risk of placing the same bet twice.
All open bets will remain on the list until either the complete
wager has won, or one segment of the wager has been graded as a
loss. Open Bets allows an easy and convenient means for players to
view their wagers that have not yet been completed.
New Bets - Several new betting features have been added in Netbook
--------
Version 2, including cross-sport parlays, cross-sport teasers, and
buy points within a parlay. Generally, these features allow a
player to wager on multiple sporting events as part of one bet,
for more favorable odds and winnings if the player accurately
predicts the result of each of the events.
New Sports - Our list of available sports continues to grow: major
----------
league baseball; NFL and NCAA football; NBA and NCAA basketball;
NHL hockey; international soccer from leagues in England, Italy,
Germany, Spain and more; PGA and international golf; auto racing
(NASCAR and Formula One); professional tennis; and professional
boxing.
Live Lines/Live Odds
Live Lines is a proprietary software system that allows "real time"
lines on all major sporting events to be dynamically linked to any web site.
This means that odds and lines on sporting events are continuously streamed to
websites, as the odds are set and subsequently change. Live Lines adds valuable
content to sports and gaming related web sites. Moreover, Live Lines is intended
to increase revenue for these web sites by adding more pages upon which banner
ads can be sold.
cyberoad.com Portal
A portal is a website that gathers resources in one location, and is
designed to be the first page that loads into the web user's browser when they
access the Internet. Vertical portals are thematic portals that provide
targeted, customizable content, and one comprehensive financial transaction
processing system. cyberoad.com intends to become a sports-and-entertainment
vertical portal late in the year 2000, further differentiating itself from other
gaming software vendors. This strategy is designed to provide cyberoad.com with
two streams of revenue:
o increased revenues from its gaming license agreements;
o advertising and co-branding revenues from portal website traffic
volume.
22
<PAGE>
Also, as part of the portal, cyberoad.com expects late in the year 2000
to offer sports information, free play sportsbook and casino contests, bulletin
boards and a stock information channel. We believe that the free play sportsbook
and casino contests are a key element of our strategy. A free play website has
all the functional components of a "live" revenue generating website. Therefore,
we intend to have a signup function, an accounting function and an interactive
betting display function built into the system. Offering both a free play
sportsbook and a free play casino provides cyberoad.com with two advantages:
true test environment for introducing gaming software and new graphic
user interface, or GUI, developments o the ability to develop a
database of potential clients for its revenue-generating websites.
Casinos
Following initial market acceptance of our sports wagering system, we
added casino gaming capability to our software line. cyberoad.com licenses the
software code of its casino system from third parties, and integrates these
systems into the Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited's eCash
framework. Integrating the casino system into the eCash framework allows for
secure online financial transaction processing for our casino licensees. As with
cyberoad.com's other products, players are not required to download any software
in order to play. The only requirement is a browser that supports Java.
cyberoad.com's casino software system allows players to play their favorite
casino games - blackjack, poker, slots, roulette, and craps - for real money,
from virtually any computer on any Internet browser system.
cyberoad.com's browser-based casino software system offers a
competitive advantage over most other virtual casino systems, whose products
require the player to use software that can take up to 50 minutes to download.
To date, a substantial majority of casino systems operate with downloadable
products. With cyberoad.com's browser-based system, casino games load quickly
and the graphics and sound are comparable to many download-based systems.
Licensees can adjust game configurations in a variety of ways using the
Java-based casino management system, allowing the licensee to set its revenue
percentages in line with the industry standards of Las Vegas and Atlantic City.
To date, cyberoad.com has two casino licensees: The Big Casino and
Grand Prix Casino. Each system operates with five games: blackjack, roulette,
poker, slots and craps. cyberoad.com expects to upgrade its casino systems by
the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2000 by adding more reporting
capabilities, which will help licensees market the system more effectively
because of greater access to its customers' data. In the future, cyberoad.com
also intends to add new casino games, including but not limited to video poker,
Pai Gow, Caribbean Stud poker and Progressive Slots.
Financial Transaction Processing System
Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited owns a proprietary secure
online financial transaction processing system that provides Internet-based,
stored value, micro-payment financial services for our licensees, and for
account holders, through its transaction clearinghouse services with acquiring
and issuing banks. Consumers are able to open a secure account, purchase eCash,
then purchase goods and services from any Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM)
Limited merchant. To date, the merchants consist of our three licensees.
Consumers can purchase eCash with major credit cards, an online debit card
system, Western Union, bank wire, money orders or personal checks. Ecomm
Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited maintains the accounts for all its
account holders, and acts as a third party service provider. The Ecomm
Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited eCash system also provides certain fraud
management services, complete accounting and transaction documentation, and
customer service.
OUR LICENSEES
To date, Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd. has three licensees of its
turnkey software: The Big Book & Casino, Grand Prix Sportsbook & Casino, and
Mayan Sportsbook. The Big Book & Casino and Grand Prix Sportsbook are both owned
and operated by Asanol Management Corporation. Mayan Sportsbook is owned and
operated by International Gaming LTD. Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd. has
license agreements and revenue sharing agreements with each of its licensees,
whereby Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd. receives flat fees for systems use and
software licenses, as well as a percentage of the gross gaming revenue generated
by the licensees' web site. Our license with International Gaming LTD. provides
that we will receive 20% of the gross gaming revenue attributable to the
Internet. Our two licenses with Asanol Management Corporation each provide that
we will receive 50% of the gross gaming revenue attributable to the operations
of the Sportsbook and to the casino gaming.

SALES AND MARKETING
cyberoad.com's sales and marketing services are provided through
contracts with Kazootek.com Technologies, Inc., a company organized under the
laws of British Columbia, Canada, and El Moro Finance Ltd., a company
incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. As of March 31, 2000,
the sales and marketing team provided by Kazootek consisted of approximately 38
Internet technology marketing and software development professionals.
Through its contractual agreements with its licensee's, cyberoad.com
provides marketing research, marketing plans, promotions, budgets and timelines,
project management, licensee specific branding, associative branding as part of
cyberoad.com, concept development, technical writing, graphic design, electronic
art production, illustration, website development, media services, and public
relations and corporate communications.
Internet marketing strategies include:
cyberoad.com proprietary Live Lines program
referral program whereby users can earn bonus money for referring
friends to cyberoad.com licensee web sites and receive further bonuses
for the amount of wagering activity these referrals generate
links that direct people to cyberoad.com licensee web sites
use of banners to direct people to cyberoad.com licensee web sites
use of direct email to sign people up with cyberoad.com licensees
providing custom content programs for various websites that help drive
traffic back to cyberoad.com licensee web sites
search engine optimization programs targeting specific search engines
and using various tactics to increase the placement order.
Traditional methods include placing advertisements in magazines, newspapers, the
radio, and TV.
cyberoad.com's marketing strategy for its gaming products and services
specifically includes expanding this platform into international markets by
building additional servers and service centers in strategic international
locations. cyberoad.com also intends to deliver multi-language products,
marketing these internationally both on the Internet and through traditional
methods.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
We currently are developing a pari-mutuel system which we expect to be
launched in spring 2001. A pari-mutuel system varies from traditional sportsbook
or casinos in that the monies are won from a "pool" of money, which contains
fixed percentages designating which persons win what amounts. Traditional
sportsbooks and casinos both have exposure, in that each could lose money to
those who are wagering. Companies running pari-mutuel systems do not have this
exposure in that these companies take a percentage of the monies wagered on an
event, with the remaining sum divided among the winners of that event. The new
pari-mutuel wagering system includes real-time wagering for horseracing.
Horseraces are ongoing every day of the year throughout the United States,
Canada, Europe and the rest of the world. By virtue of the Internet, the entire
global market can be opened to the individual racetracks.
OUR COMPETITION
Internet Sportsbook Competition
cyberoad.com conducted an extensive study of the global gaming
industry, focusing on companies that offer Internet-based sportsbook software
systems. Of all the sportsbook software developers, the industry leaders appear
to differentiate themselves with three core attributes:
proprietary financial transaction processing and gaming software
browser-based system
distributed and scalable network architecture
Approximately 12 sportsbook software developers have implemented all three
of these core attributes. These developers can be divided further into two
groups:
vendors (sell or license proprietary software systems)
owner/operators (single user of its proprietary software system)
24
<PAGE>
Seven of the 12 companies can be classified as owner/operators:
Intertops Antigua, International Gaming & Entertainment Ltd., William Hill
International, Coral Technologies Inc., Victor Chandler International,
Interwetten Wein, TAB (run by the government of New Zealand), and Total Bet
(which is owned by Sporting Life Publications in Britain), each having developed
sportsbook software systems for their own use. The remaining five sportsbook
software developers are vendors, like cyberoad.com, and are examined in the
Direct Competition Matrix below.

</TABLE>
Our Competitive Advantage
Free Play Websites:
A free play website is a site that has all the functional components of
a "live" revenue generating website. Therefore, there must be a signup function,
an accounting function and an interactive betting display function built into
the system. A few sportsbook websites claim to have a free play website, but
actually only offer a single bet scenario with no membership database building
and no financial transaction processing system.
Marketing Strategies:
Our strategies provide us with two streams of revenue:
increased revenues from gaming license agreements
advertising and revenues from website traffic volume
Collecting email addresses and developing demographic profiling of
sports enthusiasts is a key strategy. cyberoad.com intends to use this
demographic information to implement multi-segmented email programs designed to
convert portal users into gaming website clients. Further, cyberoad.com expects
to benefit from its cross-over branding support strategy.
Internet Casino Competition
The Internet casino product development sector has far outstripped the
development of sportsbook systems. The key reason for this is that barriers to
entry into Internet casino system development are lower than sportsbook
development. Much like Internet sportsbooks, Internet casinos require game
system software, and an accounting system. But while Internet casinos require
nominal management and support staff, Internet sportsbook systems are relatively
complex to manage. Additional costs result from ongoing management of day-to-day
activities (line entry, line management, event grading, and customer support)
and infrastructure (call center and customer support center).
Two of the primary casino system developers and vendors are
Cryptologic, Inc. and Boss Media AB, yet to date neither have a commercially
available Internet sportsbook product. cyberoad.com, in maintaining a full
complement of gaming products, has licensed two casino websites (The Big Casino
and Grand Prix Casino), both of which are browser-based systems. The
cyberoad.com casino system components are licensed from third parties and
integrated into the Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited eCash
framework for its licensees. Having a browser-based system is a competitive
advantage for cyberoad.com over systems such as Cryptologic, which offers a
download product. With a browser-based product, cyberoad.com provides a feature
that attracts many web users who are reluctant to download software over the
Internet. To date, most casino systems operate with a downloadable product.
25

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
cyberoad.com regards its copyrights, service marks, trademarks, trade
dress, trade secrets, proprietary technology and similar intellectual property
as critical to its success, and relies on trademark and copyright law, trade
secret protection and confidentiality and/or license agreements with its
employees, customers, independent contractors, partners and others to protect
its proprietary rights. cyberoad.com strategically pursues the registration of
its trademarks and service marks in the United States, and has applied for
registration in the United States for certain of its trademarks and service
marks, including "CYBEROAD". cyberoad.com also applied for Community Trade Mark
applications in Europe for certain of its trademarks and service marks.
Effective trademark, service mark, copyright and trade secret protection may not
be available in every country in which cyberoad.com's products and services are
made available.
cyberoad.com filed a trademark/service mark application for the mark
"CYBEROAD" on June 4, 1999.
cyberoad.com filed a trademark/service mark application for the mark
"eBanx" and design on June 4, 1999.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
As a supplier of software programs that are used on Internet gaming Web
sites, the regulatory framework that will most likely affect our business is the
framework designed to regulate Internet gaming.
Many countries currently are struggling with regulatory issues
surrounding wagering and gambling over the Internet. More specifically, they are
considering the merits, limitations and enforceability of prohibition,
regulation or taxation of wagering and gambling transactions over the Internet.
There is uncertainty regarding exactly which government has jurisdiction or
authority to regulate or legislate with respect to the Internet gaming industry.
Several Caribbean countries, Australia, and certain Native American territories
have taken the position that Internet gaming is legal and have adopted (or are
in the process of reviewing) legislation to regulate Internet gaming within
their jurisdictions.
If existing regulations are interpreted to prohibit or restrict
Internet gambling and are enforced, or if new regulations are enacted which are
designed to prohibit Internet gambling, our licensees may be found to violate
these regulations and may be required to cease operations of their sites. In
this event our ability to generate revenue would suffer substantially as the
majority of our revenue consists of a percentage of the net gaming revenue based
on wagering activity on a licensee's site. Moreover, if existing regulations are
interpreted to apply to suppliers of gaming software, or if our operations are
interpreted to extend beyond software development, we may be required to cease
or restrict our development, marketing and licensing activities. If we are
unable to market or license our software and technology, we will not be able to
generate revenue. The uncertainty surrounding the regulation of Internet gaming
and any adverse interpretation and subsequent enforcement of existing or new
laws relating to Internet gambling could have a material adverse effect on our
business, revenues, operating results and financial condition.
A publication entitled Internet Gambling Report III, 1999, edited by
Anthony N. Cabot states that if a government has made the determination that
Internet gaming is illegal, then the government may target six major groups in
an effort to enforce its laws: (1) the operators of the Internet gambling sites,
(2) Internet Service Providers, (3) index providers (for example, a search
engine that allows a Web user to find Internet sites whose descriptions match a
word or phrase), (4) sites that accept gambling advertising, (5) financial
transaction providers, and (6) the home users. The Bear Stearns report did not
identify software suppliers as one of these groups; however, if a software
supplier's role be such that it could be classified as a member of one of these
six groups, the software supplier could face potential enforcement actions.
26
<PAGE>
On August 20, 1999, investigators from the British Columbia Coordinated
Law Enforcement Unit executed search warrants at the offices of Starnet
Communications International, Inc. and the homes of six of Starnet's officers
and directors. According to documents filed by the Coordinated Law Enforcement
Unit, Starnet is being investigated for, among other things, illegal betting and
bookmaking and making agreements for the purchase and sale of betting and gaming
privileges. We believe the investigation was the result of Starnet's casino
management and administration of third party gaming operations and the operation
of their own gaming web site. As of March 16, 2000, we believe the
investigations are still pending based on publicly available information.
In the United States, the ownership and operation of land-based gaming
facilities has traditionally been regulated on a state by state basis. According
to a recently published industry report by Bear Stearns, the federal
government's role in regulating gambling appears to be changing. Increased
federal interest may not result in new regulations for traditional forms of
gambling that are easily subject to the police power of the individual states,
but may result in a redefined role for the federal government in dealing with
Internet gaming. The U.S. Department of Justice currently maintains that,
technically, there are no specific U.S. federal provisions against the placing
of bets over the Internet. However, the Justice Department also maintains that
it is illegal to operate Internet gaming Web sites and servers from within the
United States. In light of this, many Internet gaming sites are licensed and
house servers located outside the United States. According to the Justice
Department, it is illegal for any Internet gambling operation outside the U.S.
to accept bets from U.S. citizens.
The United States Federal Wire Act contains provisions that make it a
crime for anyone engaged in the business of betting or wagering to knowingly use
a telephone line to transmit bets or wagers or information assisting in the
placing of bets or wagers on any sporting event, unless the wagering is legal in
the jurisdictions from which, and into which, the transmission is made. There
are other federal laws impacting gaming activities, including the Wagering
Paraphernalia Act, the Travel Act and the Organized Crime Control Act. However,
it remains unresolved whether these other laws apply to gaming conducted over
the Internet.
On November 19, 1999, the United States Senate passed the Kyl Bill, which
would prohibit or limit wagering activities in the United States. On July 17,
2000, the House of Representatives failed to pass a proposed companion bill,
H.R. 3125, entitled the "Internet Gambling Prohibition Act of 2000." This
proposed bill would have made it a federal crime for any person engaging a
gambling business to knowingly use the Internet or any other interactive
computer service to place, receive or otherwise make a bet or wager, or to send,
receive, or invite information assisting in the placing of a bet or wager. The
House bill must be approved and reconciled with the Kyl Bill, and then signed by
the President of the United States in order for the bill to become law. Under
the current proposal, the Kyl Bill would prohibit Internet gaming in the United
States and would likely be enforced by law enforcement identifying Web sites
that provide illegal gambling in the United States. Should the Kyl Bill be
passed in its present form, it would eliminate most arguments that Internet
gambling is legal in the United States, and in order to avoid violation, would
force owner/operators to provide a mechanism whereby Internet gaming Web sites
were inaccessible to citizens of the United States.
In addition, existing United States federal statutes and state laws
could be construed to prohibit or restrict gaming through the use of the
Internet. To date, we offer technologies, products and support services to
non-U.S. based licensees. Governmental authorities may view us and/or our
licensees as having violated these statutes or laws. Several state Attorney
Generals and court decisions have upheld the application of state anti-gambling
laws to Internet casino companies.
United States or other jurisdictions may initiate criminal or civil
proceedings against us and/or our licensees, and these proceedings could involve
substantial litigation expense, penalties and fines. In addition, these
proceedings may divert the attention of our key executives, and may result in
injunctions or other prohibitions against us and/or our licensees. These
proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our business, revenues,
operating results and financial condition.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
In July 1999 we completed the sale of up to 1,400,000 shares of our
common stock pursuant to an offering under Regulation S of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, to investors that are not "U.S. Persons" as defined under
Regulation S. In that offering, we also granted a compensatory option to
purchase 200,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 to Thomson
Kernaghan for serving as placement agent in the offering. In November 1999 we
completed the sale of 648,859 shares of common stock pursuant to an offering
under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to investors that
are not "U.S. Persons" as defined under Regulation S. In that offering, we also
granted a compensatory option to purchase 64,886 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $3.50 to Thomson Kernaghan for serving as placement agent in
the offering and issued into escrow 850,000 shares of our common stock that may
be issued to certain of the selling stockholders pursuant to the terms of the
offering. Effective November 11, 1999, we issued 1,500,000 shares of our common
stock to three selling security holders in exchange for all of the issued and
outstanding shares of Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited. In November
1999, we issued 50,000 shares of our common stock to a selling security holder
as compensation for services rendered for certain introductions made to various
investors and underwriters.
Our gross proceeds from the offer and sale of our common stock in the
offering completed in July 1999 was $2,002,000 and our net proceeds were
approximately $1,865,019. Our gross proceeds from the offer and sale of our
common stock in the offering completed in November 1999 was $2,271,007 and our
net proceeds were approximately $2,030,996.
Pursuant to an agreement dated April 15, 1999, as amended, we issued
8,659,650 shares of our common stock to Cyberoad.com (Ireland) Ltd. In exchange
for all of the outstanding capital stock of Cyberoad (Isle of Man) Ltd. The
issuance of these shares was pursuant to an offering under Regulation S of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to a non "U.S. Person" as defined under
Regulation S. Subsequent thereto, Cyberoad.com (Ireland) Ltd. distributed these
shares to its stockholders, all of whom are non "U.S. Persons."
The Selling Security Holders have advised us that the sale or
distribution of the common stock may be effected directly to purchasers by the
Selling Security Holders as a principal or through one or more underwriters,
brokers, dealers or agents from time to time in one or more transactions (which
may involve crosses or block transactions) (i) in the over-the-counter market,
(ii) in transactions otherwise than in the over-the-counter market, or (iii)
through the writing of options (whether such options are listed on an options
exchange or otherwise) on, or settlement of short sales of, the Common Stock.
Any of such transactions may be effected at market prices prevailing at the time
of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at varying prices
determined at the time of sale or at negotiated or fixed prices, in each case as
determined by the Selling Security Holders or by agreements between the Selling
Security Holders and underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents or purchasers. If
the Selling Security Holders effect such transactions by selling common stock to
or through underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents, such underwriters, brokers,
dealers or agents may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions
or commissions from the Selling Security Holders or commissions from purchasers
of common stock for whom they may act as agent (which discounts, concessions or
commissions as to particular underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents may be in
excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved). The Selling
Security Holders and any brokers, dealers or agents that participate in the
distribution of the common stock may be deemed to be underwriters, and any
profit on the sale of common stock by them and any discounts, concessions or
commissions received by any such underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents may be
deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.
Because each of the Selling Security Holders may be deemed to be an
"underwriter" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, the
Selling Security Holders will be subject to prospectus delivery requirements
under the Securities Act. Furthermore, in the event of a "distribution" of their
shares, the Selling Security Holders, any selling broker or dealer and any
"affiliated purchasers" may be subject to Regulation M under the Exchange Act
until its participation in the distribution is completed.
To comply with the securities laws of certain jurisdictions, if
applicable, the shares of common stock will be offered or sold in such
jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In
addition, in certain jurisdictions the shares of common stock may not be offered
or sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in such
jurisdictions or an exemption from registration or qualification is available
and is complied with. Upon request of certain Selling Security Holders, we will
make all applicable filings under state securities or blue sky laws.
The Selling Security Holders will be subject to applicable provisions
of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, which provisions
may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common stock
by the Selling Security Holders. The foregoing may affect the marketability of
the shares of common stock.
38
<PAGE>
We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares, including,
without limitation, SEC filing fees and expenses of compliance with state
securities or "blue sky" laws; provided, however, that the Selling Security
Holders will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION
FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provide that in our Bylaws,
we shall have the power to indemnify our directors and executive officers and
any of our other officers, employees and agents against any contingency or
peril, as may be determined to be in the best interests of cyberoad.com. Our
Articles of Incorporation, as amended, also empower us to purchase insurance on
behalf of any person whom we are required or permitted to indemnify.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant
to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS
OF CYBEROAD.COM CORPORATION
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cyberoad.com
Corporation as at December 31, 1999 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company
as at December 31, 1999 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
in the United States.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999
(U.S. DOLLARS)
1. ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS
Cyberoad.Com Corporation ("the Company") was organized June 23, 1988 under the
laws of the State of Florida as Sunshine Equities Corp. The Company changed its
name to LAL Ventures Corp. and then to Cyberoad.com Corporation on May 3, 1999.
On May 1, 1999, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding common stock
of Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd. ("IOM Ltd.") in exchange for 8,659, 650
common shares of the Company. At the time of the acquisition the Company had no
assets or liabilities (note 2(a)). IOM Ltd. is accounted for as the acquiring
party and the surviving accounting entity because the former stockholders of IOM
Ltd. received an amount of voting shares which constitutes an effective
controlling interest in the combined corporation. The shares issued by the
Company pursuant to the acquisition have been accounted for as if these shares
had been issued upon the organization of IOM Ltd. The outstanding capital stock
of the Company immediately prior to the acquisition has been accounted for as
shares issued by the Company to effect the reverse acquisition. The Company
commenced operations on May 1, 1999 when the subsidiaries acquired operating
assets from a related Company (note 2(a)).
The Company's principal business is the development of internet gaming software,
the licensing of the software to other companies and online financial
transactions processing facility through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Ecomm
Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited (formerly Ebanx.com (Isle of Man)
Limited). The Company also operates an internet data processing and call centre
based in Costa Rica.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Principles of consolidation and acquisitions
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries, IOM Ltd., Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM)
Limited, Isle of Man Corporations, eBanx Ltd., a Nevada Corporation and Sistemas
de Informacion Technologia ("SIT"), Informacion y Technologia Canadiense
("ITC"), Costa Rica Corporations. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated. Details of the acquisitions, which have been
accounted for using the purchase method, are set out below.
(i) On May 1, 1999 the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of IOM
Ltd., for 8,659,650 common shares of the Company at a par value of $0.00001 per
share. IOM Ltd. had no assets, liabilities or operations at acquisition date,
accordingly, the reverse acquisition does not reflect any results of operations
of the acquired subsidiary prior to the merger.
On May 1, 1999, IOM Ltd. acquired all the property and equipment of a related
company for consideration of $10.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999
(U.S. DOLLARS)
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(ii) The Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Ecomm
Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited (which has a Nevada subsidiary, eBanx
Ltd.), for 1,500,000 shares of the Company at a stated value of $15. These
companies had a net book value of $0 at acquisition date.
On May 1, 1999, Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited acquired certain
assets and liabilities including the "eBanx" trademark, domain name and other
intellectual properties from a related company for consideration of $50,000
which exceeded the historical cost basis of the net assets acquired by $53,323.
(iii) On May 1, 1999, IOM Ltd. acquired all of the outstanding shares of SIT
and ITC, the license to the "CR Netbook" software, and certain revenue sharing
agreements with customers from a related company for consideration of $49,000
which exceeded the historical cost basis of the assets acquired by $49,000.
The excess of the consideration paid over the acquired assets historical cost
basis amounted to $102,323 and has been reflected as a distribution to
shareholders in the accompanying consolidated statement of stockholders' equity.
(b) Financial instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of accounts receivable, due from
related party, deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, customer
deposits, due to related parties, deposits from merchants and capital lease
obligations. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the
Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising
from these financial instruments. The fair values of these financial
instruments approximate their carrying values unless otherwise noted.
(c) Foreign operations and concentrations
The U.S. dollar is considered the functional currency for all subsidiaries.
Accordingly, the monetary assets and liabilities of these entities have been
remeasured using the current rates of exchange and nonmonetary assets have been
remeasured using the appropriate historical rates of exchange. Gains and losses
from this translation practice have not been significant. Comprehensive loss
would be approximately the same as reported in these financial statements which
give effect to the translation of the financial statements of these entities on
the aforementioned basis.

Computer equipment - 30% Declining balance
Furniture, fixtures and equipment - 20% Declining balance
Leased equipment - 20% and 30% Declining balance
Leasehold improvements - 12.5% Straight-line
(e) Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenues from licensees and customers on an accrual basis
based on agreed terms of licenses and contracts as the services are rendered
except for systems support and maintenance which is derived from actual wagering
activity and the revenues are, consequently, recognized after verifiable events
conclude. Allowances for non-collection of revenues are made when
collectibility becomes uncertain.
In May 1997, a Statement of Position "Software Revenue Recognition (SOP 97-2)
was issued. SOP 97-2 as amended by SOP 98-9 provides revised and expanded
guidance on software revenue recognition and applies to all entities that earn
revenue from licensing, selling or otherwise marketing computer software. SOP
97-2 is effective for transactions entered into in fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. The application of SOP 97-2 and SOP 98-9 has not had a
material impact on the Company's results of operations.
(f) Net loss per share
Net loss per share computations are based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the year. The 850,000 shares in escrow have
been excluded from the computation as the number of shares to be issued is not
determinable. Diluted loss per share has not been presented separately, as the
outstanding stock options and warrants are anti-dilutive for each of the periods
presented.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(g) Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(h) Regulation risk
The Company intends to provide its services in jurisdictions that do not
prohibit gaming over the Internet. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to comply with future government regulations that will affect
gaming operations in a significant number of international jurisdictions. Costa
Rica has laws prohibiting gaming offered to residents of Costa Rica. As a
result, the Company's Costa Rica based operations only offer to subscribers
outside of Costa Rica.
3. RESTRICTED CASH
Restricted cash of $227,101 is held in escrow by the underwriter pursuant to the
agreement relating to the placement of 648,859 shares in November. These funds
are to be released when the registration statement of the Company filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission is effective or on October 7, 2000, whichever
occurs first.
4. DEPOSITS
Deposits are comprised of funds that have been withheld by banks and credit card
processors.

11. STOCK OPTIONS
During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company granted stock options to
its directors and employees. As at December 31, 1999, the options are
outstanding as follows:
EXERCISE NUMBER
EXPIRY DATE . . . PRICE OF OPTIONS
April 1, 2009 . . $ 1.00 1,505,125
July 26, 2009 . . $ 3.50 50,000

December 1, 2009. $ 3.50 50,000
December 16, 2009 $ 3.50 25,000
December 23, 2009 $ 3.50 10,000
1,745,125
----------
The Company has elected to follow APB 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees" and related interpretations in accounting for its stock options. The
exercise prices of certain stock options were below the market price of the
underlying stock on the date of grant, therefore, compensation expense ($41,055)
was recorded under the intrinsic value method. Had compensation expense been
determined on the basis of the estimated fair values of the options granted in
accordance with SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", net loss
would have been increased by $16,527 or $0.03 per common share.
The fair value of common share options granted in 1999 is $1,513,531. The fair
value of common share options granted is estimated as at the grant date
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the following weighted
average assumptions:
Dividend yield . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0%
Risk-free interest rate. . . . . . . . . . 6%
Expected life. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 years
Expected volatility. . . . . . . . . . . . 16%
Weighted average exercise price of options $1.44
During the year ended December 31, 1999, 500 of the April 1, 2009 options were
exercised for 500 common shares of the Company. The weighted average remaining
contractual life of options outstanding at December 31, 1999 is approximately 9
years.
As at December 31, 1999, 658,724 options have been vested.

are to be released if the corporation fails to meet certain filing deadlines
relating to a registration statement being filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The first deadline of December 7, 1999 was not met and

30 day period after December 7, 1999 the deadline is not met an additional 0.02
shares of common stock are to be issued. Shares not released from escrow to the
purchasers will be released to the corporation for cancellation on the earlier

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000
(U.S. DOLLARS)
1. ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS
Cyberoad.Com Corporation ("the Company") was organized June 23, 1988 under the
laws of the State of Florida as Sunshine Equities Corp. The Company changed its
name to LAL Ventures Corp. and then to Cyberoad.com Corporation on May 3, 1999.
On May 1, 1999, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding common stock
of Cyberoad.com (Isle of Man) Ltd. ("IOM Ltd.") in exchange for 8,659, 650
common shares of the Company. At the time of the acquisition the Company had no
assets or liabilities. IOM Ltd. is accounted for as the acquiring party and the
surviving accounting entity because the former stockholders of IOM Ltd. received
an amount of voting shares which constitutes an effective controlling interest
in the combined corporation. The shares issued by the Company pursuant to the
acquisition have been accounted for as if these shares had been issued upon the
organization of IOM Ltd. The outstanding capital stock of the Company
immediately prior to the acquisition has been accounted for as shares issued by
the Company to effect the reverse acquisition. The Company commenced operations
on May 1, 1999 when the subsidiaries acquired operating assets from a related
Company.
The Company's principal business is the development of internet gaming software,
the licensing of the software to other companies and online financial
transactions processing facility through its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Corporacion Ebanx.com, S.A.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Principles of consolidation and acquisitions
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries, IOM Ltd., Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM)
Limited, Isle of Man Corporations, Corporacion Ebanx.com, S.A., a Panamanian
Corporation, eBanx Ltd., a Nevada Corporation and Sistemas de Informacion
Technologia ("SIT"), Informacion y Technologia Canadiense ("ITC"), Costa Rica
Corporations. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated.
(b) Financial instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of accounts receivable, due from
related party, deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, customer
deposits, due to related parties, deposits from merchants and capital lease
obligations. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the
Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising
from these financial instruments. The fair values of these financial
instruments approximate their carrying values unless otherwise noted.
(c) Foreign operations and concentrations
The U.S. dollar is considered the functional currency for all subsidiaries.
Accordingly, the monetary assets and liabilities of these entities have been
remeasured using the current rates of exchange and nonmonetary assets have been
remeasured using the appropriate historical rates of exchange. Gains and losses
from this translation practice have not been significant. Comprehensive loss
would be approximately the same as reported in these financial statements which
give effect to the translation of the financial statements of these entities on
the aforementioned basis.

(U.S. DOLLARS)
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
(d) Property and equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and
depreciation. Amortization and depreciation of property and equipment are
calculated at the following annual rates (commencing when the assets are put
into use):
Computer software - 50% Declining balance
Computer equipment - 30% Declining balance
Furniture, fixtures and equipment - 20% Declining balance
Leasehold improvements - 12.5% Straight-line
(e) Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenues from licensees and customers on an accrual basis
based on agreed terms of licenses and contracts as the services are rendered
except for systems support and maintenance which is derived from actual wagering
activity and the revenues are, consequently, recognized after verifiable events
conclude. Allowances for non-collection of revenues are made when
collectibility becomes uncertain.
In May 1997, a Statement of Position "Software Revenue Recognition (SOP 97-2)
was issued. SOP 97-2 as amended by SOP 98-9 provides revised and expanded
guidance on software revenue recognition and applies to all entities that earn
revenue from licensing, selling or otherwise marketing computer software. SOP
97-2 is effective for transactions entered into in fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. The application of SOP 97-2 and SOP 98-9 has not had a
material impact on the Company's results of operations.
(f) Net loss per share
Net loss per share computations are based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the year. The 850,000 shares in escrow have
been excluded from the computation as the number of shares to be issued is not
determinable. Diluted loss per share has not been presented separately, as the
outstanding stock options and warrants are anti-dilutive for each of the periods
presented.
(e) Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(f) Regulation risk
The Company intends to provide its services in jurisdictions that do not
prohibit gaming over the Internet. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to comply with future government regulations that will affect
gaming operations in a significant number of international jurisdictions. Costa
Rica has laws prohibiting gaming offered to residents of Costa Rica. As a
result, the Company's Costa Rica based operations only offer to subscribers
outside of Costa Rica.

Part II.. INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Item 24.. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
cyberoad.com's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, provide that in our
Bylaws, we shall have the power to indemnify our directors and executive
officers and any of our other officers, employees and agents against any
contingency or peril, as may be determined to be in the best interests of
cyberoad.com. Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, also empower us to
purchase insurance on behalf of any person whom we are required or permitted to
indemnify. To date, cyberoad.com has not entered into indemnification agreements
with any of its directors, executive officers, or any other officer, employee or
agent. In addition, to date, cyberoad.com has not purchased insurance policies
under these indemnification provisions.
Florida General Corporation Act section 607.014 states that:
A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party to
any proceeding (other than an action by, or in the right of, the corporation) by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against liability incurred in connection with
any such proceeding, including any appeal thereof, if he acted in good faith and
in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best
interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The
termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, or conviction or
upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
corporation or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had
reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person, who was or is a party to
any proceeding by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in
its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee,
or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the
corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses and
amounts paid in settlement not exceeding, in the judgment of the board of
directors, the estimated expense of litigating the proceeding to conclusion,
actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of
such proceeding including any appeal thereof. Such indemnification shall be
authorized if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in, or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation,
except that no indemnification shall be made under this subsection in respect of
any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to
be liable unless, and only to the extent that, the court in which such
proceeding was brought, or any other court of competent jurisdiction, shall
determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in
view of all circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper.
To the extent that a director, officer, employee, or agent of a corporation has
been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any proceeding referred
to above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be
indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection therewith.
Any indemnification, unless pursuant to a determination by a court, shall be
made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a
determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee, or agent
is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of
conduct set forth above. Such determination shall be made by any of: majority
vote of a quorum of the board of directors (consisting of directors who were not
parties to such proceeding); by majority vote of a committee duly designated by
the board of directors consisting solely of two or more directors not at the
time parties to the proceeding; independent legal counsel; or the shareholders
by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of shareholders who were not parties
to such proceeding.
Evaluation of the reasonableness of expenses and authorization of
indemnification shall be made in the same manner as the determination that
indemnification is permissible.
<PAGE>
Expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending a civil or criminal
proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of
such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director
or officer to repay such amount if he is ultimately found not to be entitled to
indemnification by the corporation.
The indemnification and advancement of expenses are not exclusive, and a
corporation may make any other further indemnification or advancement of
expenses of any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents, under any
bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.
However, indemnification shall not be made to or on behalf of any director,
officer, employee, or agent if a judgment establishes that his actions, or
omissions to act, were material to the cause of action so adjudicated and
constitute any of: a violation of the criminal law; a transaction from which the
director, officer, employee, or agent derived an improper personal benefit; a
circumstance where the liability provisions of section 607.144 apply; or willful
misconduct or a conscious disregard for the best interests of the corporation.
Indemnification and advancement of expenses shall continue as to a person who
has ceased to be a director, officer, employee, or agent and shall inure to the
benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person, unless
otherwise provided when authorized or ratified.
Unless the corporation's articles of incorporation provide otherwise,
notwithstanding the failure of a corporation to provide indemnification, and
despite any contrary determination of the board or of the shareholders in a
specific case, a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation who is
or was a party to a proceeding may apply for indemnification or advancement of
expenses, or both, to the court conducting the proceeding, to the circuit court,
or to another court of competent jurisdiction.
A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of
any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the
corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him
and incurred by him in any such capacity or arising out of his status as such,
whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against
such liability under the provisions of this section.
If any expenses or other amounts are paid by way of indemnification otherwise
than by court order or action by the shareholders or by an insurance carrier
pursuant to insurance maintained by the corporation, the corporation shall, not
later than the time of delivery to shareholders of written notice of the next
annual meeting of shareholders, unless such meeting is held within three months
from the date of such payment, and, in any event, within 15 months from the date
of such payment, deliver either personally or by mail to each shareholder of
record at the time entitled to vote for the election of directors a statement
specifying the persons paid, the amounts paid, and the nature and status at the
time of such payment of the litigation or threatened litigation.

under Section 3(b) of the Securities Act as transactions pursuant to
compensatory benefit plans and contracts relating to compensation as provided
under such Rule 701.
On February 28, 1989, we issued an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of
common stock to the sole stockholder and director of Registrant. The issuance of
these securities was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities

On November 11, 1999 we issued 8,659,650 shares of Common Stock to

under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in exchange for 100% of the
outstanding capital stock of Ecomm Relationship Technologies (IOM) Limited,
formerly known as eBanx.com (Isle of Man) Limited. The issuance of these
securities was made in compliance with Regulation S of the Securities Act.
The recipients of securities in transactions exempt under Section 4(2)
of the Securities Act represented their intentions to acquire the securities for
investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any
distribution thereof and appropriate legends were affixed to the instruments
representing such securities issued in such transactions. All recipients either
received adequate information about the Company or had adequate access, through
their relationships with the Company, to such information.
The securities issued in compliance with Regulation S were offered and
sold in an offshore transaction and there were no directed selling efforts made
within the United States by the Company, any distributor, any of their
affiliates or any other persons acting on their behalf, as those terms are
defined under Regulation S. The Registrant implemented offering restrictions in
connection with the issuance of the securities and to the knowledge of the
Registrant, the offer and sale of the securities was not made to a U.S. Person,
as defined under Regulation S.

a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to: (i) include any
prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; (ii) reflect in
the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a
fundamental change in the information in the registration statement.
(iii) Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of
distribution;
(2) That, for the purposes of determining liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof;
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering; and
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of the appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
