MATERIAL CHANGES IN CONTROL SINCE INCEPTION AND RELATED BUSINESS HISTORY
On October 29, 1998, the Company entered into a related party transaction
with the former management of the Company for the transfer of all the Company's
assets to Xenylic Xyris, Inc. in consideration for the assumption of all the
Company's liabilities as of that date.
As part of the transaction Kumar Hathiramani and Surindar Aggarwal each
transferred 3,375,000 shares each to Roger Fidler and Jay Hait on October 29,
1998.
On April 30, 1999 the Company issued 11,000,000 shares of common stock in
consideration for all the assets of Mont Granitos SA ("Mont"). This transaction
gave majority control of the Company to previous shareholders of Mont.
BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY
Montt International Corporation, Inc. ("Montt" or the "Company") was
incorporated on April 18, 1996 under the name Soup Nutsy Corp.. Soup Nutsy Corp.
changed its name to Leonard Swindbourne II Acquisition Corp. on December 3, 1998
after a change in control and the divestiture of its operating assets. The
Company had originally operated a soup restaurant in New York City. When the
Company acquired Mont Granitos, S.A., a Brazilian granite mining company, on
April 30, 1999, the Company changed its name to Montt International Corporation
by amending its certificate of incorporation effective on June 30, 1999. The
Company maintains a United States office at New York, 305 West 50th Street,
Suite 2K, New York, New York 10019. The Company's mining operations are managed
through its Brazilian subsidiary's office in Forteleza, in the State of Ceara in
Brazil.
OPERATIONS
Montt owns, through its wholly owned Brazilian subsidiary, Mont
Granitos, S.A., eight granite properties in northeastern Brazil. These
properties hold more than 1.3 million cubic meters of granite of varying colors.
As presently envisioned by the Company, these granite reserves will provide
overall mine life of at least thirteen years.
During the time period from July 1, 1998 through June, 1999, the
Company leased four deposits to Minevale-Mineracao Vale do Acarau Ltda., a
company in which the controlling shareholder of Montt also holds an interest.
The Company has entered into a sales agreement ("Kyogo Group Contract")
covering about 15% of the estimated reserves of the Company with a Japanese
architectural firm, Kashiwabara Token Kyogo Group, for $122,483,700. This
Agreement provides that sales may begin any time within a seven year period
commencing upon the execution of the agreement, May 3, 1998, and that sales may
be terminated upon six months written notice by either party.
The primary business operation of the Company at the date of this From
10SB is the search for financing for equipment and working capital to allow for
the exploitation of the eight properties. The can be no assurance that such
financing will be obtained. In the absence of such financing the Company would
be continuing to utilize old equipment of limited quantity which has hampered,
and will continue to hamper, production of granite blocks.
The material produced by the Company are granite blocks which are shipped to the
purchaser, or the purchaser's subcontractor, and then cut by local vendors to
the final shape and size needed for installation by others.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRODUCT
Granite is a natural product It is formed from liquid magma, the molten
rock still found at the core of the planet, which is pushed toward the surface
to form a substance approaching the hardness and durability of diamond. Granite
owes its hardness and density to the fact that it has been solidified deep
within the earth, under extreme pressure. Over the eons, seismic activity has
changed the crust of the planet, forcing veins of granite to the surface.
Glaciers scraped off layers of dirt, sand and rock to expose granite formations.
Typically revealed by outcrops, these deposits have been discovered on every
continent. Unfortunately, most of these granite formations have been badly
fractured by subsequent ice ages and volcanic activity, making them unsuitable
for commercial uses. Only a few deposits remained unaffected as solid "nuggets"
of massive granite rock, making them potentially suitable for quarrying.
To be commercially viable, a solid massive granite rock deposit must
contain an attractive crystal structure and be free of imperfections. It must
also be accessible, and be located in a manner that is free from other resource
and land use conflicts. It must be in reasonable proximity to transportation and
manufacturing infrastructure. It must be located in a jurisdiction with recourse
to commercial and civil law process, and one that supports development of the
resource. And finally, it must be located in close access to domestic and export
market opportunities. The Company's granite quarries meet all these criteria.

<PAGE>
The process of manufacturing granite products begins at the quarry. The
principal quarry product sold by the Company is granite blocks, the raw material
of the granite industry. Granite differs from deposit to deposit by color, grade
and/or quality. These blocks are extracted from the Company's quarries in
various sizes through a drilling, blasting and wire sawing process in the
quarry. The range of block sizes is large, but most processing generally require
minimum dimensions of height, width and length to maximize the efficiency of
their block sawing equipment in meeting the required dimensions of the finished
product. Granite blocks are normally sold in heights from 2'6" to 5', widths of
3' to 5', and lengths from 7' to 10'. These blocks weigh from 20 to 30 tons.
Once free of the rock face, blocks are transported by truck or barge to a stone
processing plant. Some quarry operators do not produce finished products -- but
sell their blocks to foreign or domestic stone producers.
Most of the world's granite processing plants and manufacturing
technology is located in Europe. Italy is regarded as the world leader in the
production of granite and marble products, with a tradition that goes back to
the days of the Romans.
Regardless of location, granite block processing has changed
dramatically over the past decade. Contemporary plants are automated
manufacturing facilities, designed to create a daily quota of finished products.
In many ways, a stone processing plant could be compared with a sawmill. Large
quarry blocks of known dimension are passed through various diamond bladed saws
to produce slabs or tiles of varying thickness. Other automated machinery
polishes the cut material to the required finish.
Polished slabs are cut to size for use as exterior and interior facing
of buildings. Slabs are also sold in large sheets -- similar to 4 x 8 sheets of
other construction material. Re-manufacturers utilize the material for custom
work in their particular trade areas, where slabs are converted into kitchen and
bath countertops, and other specialized products.
Granite tiles can be manufactured and packaged for distribution
worldwide in a granite processing plant. Tiles are used for floor and wall
coverings, and can come in a variety of colors and textures. Recent innovations
in granite processing technology can make the cost of granite tiles more
competitive with synthetic alternatives.
Granite is the hardest of all building stones with a very dense grain,
making it virtually impervious to stain and uniquely applicable for any interior
use. If polished, its high-gloss finish will endure even in harsh environments.
These characteristics are ideal for use in the construction and design
industries. Granite also can be provided with a variety of other finishes and,
when combined with the vast spectrum of colors available, provide design options
surpassing any other type of stone. Granites may contain other minerals
providing patterned movement or they may be quarried with consistent grains and
little movement.
Granite is part of the sector of construction stone materials which also
includes marble and slate.
MISSI : The granite commercially known as Missi contains a degree of
variability in its visual aspect, thus a number of commercial sub-types are
identified. The most promising ones are the pink ("ROSA), the almond-brown
("AMENDOA') and the yellow ("AMARELO') variations.
Production of Missi will be adjusted to market demand and the quarrying
method adopted is flexible enough to handle that. Therefore, a combination of
the mining methods benching and selective mining are used.
Due to the local conditions, the quarry averages a mining recovery rate
of 30%. The extension of road and access construction is 5 km. The front-end
loader and bulldozer do handling of extracted materials (both waste and blocks).
The acceptable blocks are then stored at the block storage area prior to their
loading and transport by truck to Fortaleza.
MERUOCA CLASSICO: Production of Meruoca Classico is based on contour
mining, with standard pit design afterwards. Quarry development starts from the
outcrops and follows the available granite orebody using multiple benches. This
ensures the required flexibility and mine safety in production. The mining face
is regularly adjusted to the best fault pattern orientation and to the required
production requirements.
The mining recovery expected for Meruoca Classico is 40%. The extension
of road and access construction is 4 km. The quarry design is complemented with
a maintenance yard, block storage yard, waste dump and general office and
maintenance building facilities.The front-end loader and bulldozer do handling
of extracted materials (both waste and blocks). The acceptable blocks are then
stored at the block storage area prior to their loading and transport by truck
to Fortaleza.
VERDE MERUOCA: Production of Verde Meruoca is based on contour mining,
with standard pit design afterwards. Quarry development starts from the outcrops
and follows the available granite orebody using multiple benches. This will
ensure the required flexibility and mine safety in production. The mining face
is regularly adjusted to the best fault pattern orientation and to the required
production requirements.

<PAGE>
The mining recovery expected for Verde Meruoca averages 40%. The
extension of road and access construction is 3 km. The quarry design is
complemented with a maintenance yard, block storage yard, waste dump and general
office and maintenance building facilities. Once the vertical panels are
isolated, they are overthrown to their sides using the front-end loader,
hydraulic jacks and crane. There, the panels are cut into commercial-size blocks
using mechanical induced cuts. The front-end loader and bulldozer do handling of
extracted materials (both waste and blocks). All acceptable blocks are then
stored at the block storage area prior to their loading and transport by truck
to Fortaleza.
ROSA IRACEMA: This quarry has different sites, and due to different
quarrying conditions at each site, the block utilization average at each level
will be different. The values expected are 50%, 95%,and 95% respectively.
Overall mining recovery is estimated to be 60% for this granite. The extension
of road and access construction is 12 km.
CINZA PRATA: Production of Cinza Prata will be based on the existing
quarry site , however, there are a number of other adjacent sites not yet
developed. Due do the relative low value of Cinza Prata, it is not expected that
more than one site will be in production at a particular time. The extension of
road and access construction is 3 km.
Using historical records for Cinza Prata since 1994, a mining recovery
of 60% is expected. Once the vertical panels are isolated, they are overthrown
with the front-end loader, hydraulic jacks and crane. The panels are then cut
into commercial-size blocks using mechanical-induced cuts. The front-end loader
and bulldozer do handling of extracted materials (both waste and blocks). All
acceptable blocks are then stored at the block storage area prior to their
loading and transport by truck to Fortaleza.
VERDE PANTANAL: This granite has a peculiar aspect given by mineralized
veins.. The mining method chosen is contour mining. Mining recovery is expected
to be 35%. The extension of road and access construction is 18 km.
Once the vertical panels are isolated, they are overthrown with the
front-end loader, hydraulic jacks and crane. The panels are then cut into
commercial-size blocks using mechanical-induced cuts. The front-end loader and
bulldozer do handling of extracted materials (both waste and blocks). All
acceptable blocks are then stored at the block storage area prior to their
loading and transport by truck to Fortaleza.
CASABLANCA: Granite Casablanca has a peculiar esthetical pattern brought by
the biotite layers, which makes it extremely attractive due to its color and
pattern. Mining recovery is expected to average 37%. The extension of road and
access construction is 18 km.
The mining method used is contour mining in multiple benches from the
outcrops. This enables a high flexibility in production and ensures a relief in
the "in-situ" stress state, which in turn may allow for a higher mining recovery
than the expected average. Once the vertical panels are isolated, they are
overthrown with the front-end loader, hydraulic jacks and crane. The panels are
then cut into commercial-size blocks using mechanical-induced cuts. The
front-end loader and bulldozer do handling of extracted materials (both waste
and blocks). All acceptable blocks are then stored at the block storage area
prior to their loading and transport by truck to Fortaleza.
PRETO REDENCAO: Production of Preto Redencao is based on the open-pit
mining method. A mining recovery of 60% is expected. Most of the cuts in the
quarry to use diamond wire technology, ensuring low costs and high productivity.
The extension of road and access construction is 8 km.
The quarry design is complemented with a maintenance yard, block
storage yard, waste dump and general office and maintenance building facilities.
The front-end loader and bulldozer do handling of extracted materials
(both waste and blocks). All acceptable blocks are then stored at the block
storage area prior to their loading and transport by truck to Fortaleza.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INDUSTRY
A. CONSTRUCTION STONE- MARKET PRICES
The number of firms involved in the production of granite blocks for
internal consumption in Brazil is considerably small. This relatively small
group of block producers has a significant degree of influence on the final
price of the blocks and derived products. Another important factor in the market
price for granite is the ability of the producer to form a differentiated price
for certain products. Construction stone are unique materials according to their
origin and their individual characteristics both physical and esthetical,
allowing for specific demand and price for some products. Competition between
different products is imperfect, and it tends to decrease the more specialized a
product is.
On the other hand, granite products considered to be common tend to
have a smaller impact on the market, and are normally associated with an
oligopoly or homogeneous market. Although each individual producer has a certain
ability to influence the market price, the combined effect of (1) the reduced
number of producers; and (2) the low degree of differentiation between products,
tends to diminish the actual influence of an individual producer on the market
price. With a more intense degree of differentiation and more intense uniqueness
of a certain product, the producer has more power to influence the prices, in
some circumstances reaching an intensively differentiated oligopoly, very close
to a monopoly.
For international exports, the influence of local producers is
significantly reduced. The production scale it is usually very small compared to
international production levels and the end-user has a number of suppliers
located in different countries, enabling access to a large set of independently
produced and sold products. It is known that granite blocks that meet the
current market demand - color, movement - have easier penetration and higher
prices in general.
B. SUPPLY AND DEMAND STRUCTURE
The majority of the demand for granite stones is in civil construction
with approximately 80% of the total. Due to its particular features of hardness
and low maintenance requirements, most applications (70%) are related to
interior and exterior building facing. The remaining general applications are
for wall plating, and for the arts and funerary industry. Supply inventories
differ on a country-to-country and region-to-region basis. In general, most of
the products considered to be common are distributed to internal markets. The
penetration of more valuable products depends on the local construction industry
trends and, to a lesser degree, the competition from alternate building
products.
Traditionally, construction stones, particularly granite and marble are
perceived to be high quality, high-end products and therefore, associated with
high prices. A significant change on this perception is being brought about by
recent changes in the market, related to higher supply levels, larger production
scale and lower costs associated with the use of modern technologies for both
production and processing. The lower prices connected with these changes are
helping to increase the demand steadily.
World-wide production of construction stone blocks (run-of-mine) feeds
a significant processing industry, that have to supply approximately 463 million
square meters a year of finished products. The capital immobilized in the
construction stone industry worldwide is equivalent to US$ 12 billion, with an
average US$ 1.2 billion required yearly for equipment maintenance and
replacement. The industry includes more than 40,000 companies, ranging from
small- to medium-size, with a work force of approximately 1.5 million people,
from extraction at the quarry to final processing.

<PAGE>
C. WORLD WIDE PRODUCTION
Worldwide production has increased significantly in the period 1926 to 1995,
with an average annual rate of 4.7%. From 1986, this rate has increased to a
level of 7% yearly, considerably higher than the average global economy growth.
Within the construction stone industry, granite is the sector with the highest
production increase rate, above marbles and slates. The main reasons for this
growth in the production levels are:
o Gradual decrease in the prices of the final products;
o Attractive relation capital/product price for new projects;
o The industrial activity related to construction stones is perceived to be
advantageous for regional economic growth in developing countries;
o Wide distribution of production centers;
o Better acceptance of the product features of hardness and esthetical values
o Significant improvements in the technology for production, processing and
setting up the construction stones against alternate products.
Currently, 80 countries produce and export granite, with 30 of them producing
more than 100,000 tons/year. Europe is the most important producer, responsible
for 55% of the worldwide production. However, in recent years the European
participation has been decreasing steadily due to the production expansion of
other regions, in particular, countries such as China, India and Brazil. From
1989 to 1995, the worldwide market share of these three countries has increased
from 10% to 29%.
Table 16 shows historical data of the worldwide production of construction
stones from 1926 to 1995.

From 1989 to 1995, the global commercialization in volume of construction stone
has increased 62.2%, equivalent to 8.4% yearly (excluding slates). Granite in
raw had a cumulative change of 41.3%, equivalent to an average change of 5.9%
yearly.
Exports of block are carried out through contracts between importers and
producers. Importer representatives usually visit the quarries and choose the
required blocks on-site. Sometimes the contracts are signed with exclusivity
rights. Many companies have international partners that are in charge of global
marketing and commercialization.
The main importers of granite during 1995 were Japan, Italy, Germany, Taiwan,
USA, France and Belgium, with 62% of the global imports. Singapore, Hong Kong
and Taiwan are the countries with the highest increase in the imports during
1989 to 1995.
E. CONSTRUCTION STONE MARKETING
The granite industry has a complex distribution structure, due to the
presence of a wide range of materials, with different prices, looks and
availability.
In general, blocks are carefully selected, normally on-site, and their
commercialization is done via pre-established channels and, sometimes through
re-sellers.
The emphasis on specific features of each product is important, and
this is reflected by a carefully process of selecting an appropriate name for a
specific product. Marketing of the product and its name is done via brochures
and catalogues, and through advertisements in specialized magazines and other
publications. Polished samples are also normally available. It is becoming
popular to associate a particular product with a famous building or construction
(such as shopping centers, museums, etc.).

RISK FACTORS
Development Stage Company; No Operating History
The Company was incorporated December 2,1996 and is still in its
development stage. The Company's operations are subject to all the risks
inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. The likelihood of
the success of the Company must be considered in light of the problems,
expenses, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with
the formation of a new business, the development of new markets for its
products, and the competitive and regulatory environment in which the Company
operates in. Unanticipated expenses, delays, and other problems such as setbacks
in product extraction, in market acceptance, and in sales and marketing are
frequently encountered in establishing a new business. Such problems, if
experienced, could adversely affect the Company to a material degree.
Company May Require Additional Financing
To fulfill its revenue and earnings objectives, the Company may need to
seek additional funding through public or private financing and may, when
attractive sources of capital become available, elect to obtain capital in
anticipation of such needs. However, no assurance can be given that additional
funds which may be required will be available, if at all, on acceptable terms.
The Company has made no arrangements to obtain future additional financing. If
additional funds are required, the Company's inability to raise such funds will
adversely affect its operations. To the extent that additional funds are
obtained by the sale of equity securities, the stockholders may sustain
significant dilution.
Company May Not be Able to Manage Expansion
The Company believes that the funds secured from the successful completion
of this Offering will allow the Company to significantly increase the output of
the Company's granite deposits. This, the Company believes, will allow for
significant growth relative to past extractive capacity of the ranite deposits.
However, this proposed expansion will subject the Company to increased
operational and marketing costs relative to the costs that were incurred by the
predecessor owners of the granite deposits. In order to manage this growth, the
Company must also improve and expand the hiring, training, and management of new
employees. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to manage
these changes sufficiently, which may adversely affect the Company to a material
degree. There can be no assurance that the Company will succeed in any of its
expansion plans, and even if expansion does occur there can be no assurance that
this expansion will be profitable.
Dependence on Key Members of Management
The successful operation of the business depends substantially on the
expertise and know-how of its current management personnel. In particular the
Company's president, Francisco Demontie Mendes Aragao, has played a substantial
role in the development and management of the Company, and the Company believes
his services will be crucial for the successful management of its expansion
plans. The Company has recently entered into an employment agreement with Mr.
Mendes. However, if his employment terminates, or if he is unable to perform his
duties, the Company will be substantially affected.
12
<PAGE>
Hazards Associated with Company Operations
The Company's operations are subject to certain hazards and liability risks
faced by all such businesses within the extractive industries, such as potential
health hazards to workers and enviromental damage and/or accidents. While the
Company or the predecessor owners of the granite deposits have never experienced
such hazards, the occurrence of such hazards could materially affect the
Company's operations.
Dependence on a Single Customer
The Company has signed a long-term supply contract with the Kashiwabara
Token Kyogo Group in Japan. Although the Company is not aware of any adverse
developments concerning this customer, the Company would suffer substantial
material adverse effects if for any reason the Kashiwabara Token Kogyo Group
terminated its business relationship with the Company.
Geography
The Company expects that in the initial years of its planned expansion, a
large proportion of its sales will be targeted to the Asian market. As a result,
negative economic or market changes within Asia may have an adverse effect on
the Company's business.
Company has not Paid Dividends
Since its inception, the Company has not paid any cash dividends on the
Common Stock. Any declaration of dividends in the future will be at the
discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things,
earnings, the operating and financial condition of the Company, capital
expenditure requirements, and general business conditions. There are no
restrictions currently in effect which preclude the Company from paying
dividends, but the Company currently intends to retain any earnings in the
foreseeable future to finance the growth and development of the business.
Therefore, the Company does not presently intend to pay dividends, and it is not
likely that any dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future. See
"Description of Securities - Common Stock" and "Dividend Policy."
Restrictions on Transfer; Registration of Common Stock
This offering has been structured as a private placement of the Common
Stock of the Company which will be followed immediately by a business
combination between the Company and an existing Public Company that has no
substantial assets, liabilities or business operations. This offering is
expected to close contemporaneously with the proposed business combination. In
connection with the proposed business combination, all stockholders of the
Company, including the investors who purchase the Common Stock offered hereby,
will exchange their shares of the Company's Common Stock for newly-issued shares
of the Public Company's common stock.The Common Stock will be subject to
substantial restrictions on transfer under the Act and the provisions of state
laws regulating securities. In general, an investor will not be able to sell,
transfer, pledge or dispose of his Common Stock without first registering such
shares under the Act and applicable state securities laws, unless an exemption
from registration is available. Accordingly, an investor must be willing to bear
the economic risk of his investment for an indefinite period of time. Within six
months after the completion of this offering, the Company intends to file a
registration statement under the Act for the registration of the Common Stock
offered hereby. While there can be no assurances respecting the time that may
required to complete the registration process and receive an order of
effectiveness from the SEC, the Company will use all reasonable efforts to have
such registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable and to
maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement for a period of at
least 12 months. Upon receipt of an order of effectiveness, the purchasers of
the Common Stock offered hereby will have the right to sell 50% of the shares of
Common Stock purchased in this offering. An additional 25% of the shares of
Common Stock purchased in this offering will be eligible for resale three months
after the effectiveness of the registration statement and the remaining 25% of
the shares of Common Stock purchased in this offering will be eligible for
resale six months after the effectiveness of the registration statement.

<PAGE>
Competitive Industry
The exploration, extraction, and distribution of granite blocks is highly
competitive and requires substantial capital. The Company competes with and will
compete with, numerous international, national, and regional companies, many of
which have significanlty larger operations and greater financial, marketing, and
other resources than the Company which mayh give such competitors competitive
advantages, including economies of scale and scope. No assurances can be given
that the Company will be able to compete effectively in any market in which it
conducts or may sales.
Effects of an Economic Downturn in Brazil
While the Company is focusing its efforts on exporting its granite outside
of Brazil, it will still have domestic sales with a high concentration in the
construction industry. it In the event that economic conditions in Brazil
experiences a significant downturn, such as a recession, or there occurs a
significant increase in the rate of inflation, there is likely to be an adverse
effect upon the market for granite in Brazil.
Enforceability of Foreign Judgments
Substantially all of the assets of the Company are located in Brazil. In
addition, the officers of and some of the Directors of the Company reside in
Brazil and substantially all of the assets of such persons are located in
Brazil. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to enforce judgments
resulting from violations of any law applicable to the offer and sale of Common
Stock outside of Brazil against such persons. A judgment against the Company
obtained outside of Brazil would be enforceable in Brazil against the Company
and its officers and Directors, without reconsideration of the merits, upon
confirmation of that judgrnent by the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court. That
confirmation will occur if the foreign judgment (a) fulfills all formalities
required for its enforceability under the laws of the country where the foreign
judgment is granted, (b) is issued by a competent court after personal service
of process upon the Company, its officers, or Directors, (c) is not subject to
appeal, (d) is authenticated by a Brazilian consular office in the country where
the foreign judgment is issued and (e) is not against Brazilian public policy.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assurance can be given that the confirmation
process described above can be conducted in a timely manner. No assurance can be
given that applicable Central Bank consent would be granted for remittance of
the monetary judgment in foreign currency outside of Brazil.
Exchange Controls and Restrictions
Brazilian law provides that, whenever there is a serious imbalance in
Brazil's balance of payments or serious reasons to foresee such imbalance, the
Brazilian Government may, for a limited period of time, impose restrictions on
the remittance to foreign investors of the proceeds of their investments or for
the remittance of dividends. While there are currently no such restrictions in
effect, there can be no assurance that Brazilian Government will not in the
future impose restrictive foreign exchange regulations that would have the
effect of preventing or restricting the Company's ability to remit dividend
payments.
Tax Exemption
Current Brazilian law exempts all export product from all state, federal,
and value-added taxes. The Company's growth plans are oriented towards the
export market. While the Company will not rely on the tax exemptions in order to
achieve profitability and a meaningful return on equity, any change in the tax
exempt status may result in a decline in the Company's after-tax earnings
MINING RISKS AND INSURANCE
The Company's operations may be affected by risks and hazards generally
associated with the mining industry, including fires, cave-ins, rock bursts,
flooding, industrial accidents, mechanical or electrical failures, and unusual
or unexpected rock formations. Such risks could result in damage to, or
destruction of, mineral properties or producing facilities, personal injury,
environmental damage, delays in mining, monetary losses and possible legal
liability. Although the Company maintains insurance at levels consistent with
its historical experience and industry practice, no assurance can be given that
such insurance will continue to be available at economically feasible premiums.
Insurance for environmental risks (including potential for pollution or other
hazards as a result of the disposal of waste products occurring from production)
is not generally available to the Company or to other companies within the
industry.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998 AND FOR THE NINE
MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND 1999.
The following discussion relates to the results of the Company's operations
to date, and our financial condition:
This prospectus contains forward looking statements relating to the
Company's future economic performance, plans and objectives of management for
future operations, projections of revenue mix and other financial items that are
based on the beliefs of, as well as assumptions made by and information
currently known to, management. The words "expects, intends, believes,
anticipates, may, could, should" and similar expressions and variations thereof
are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The cautionary statements
set forth in this section are intended to emphasize that actual results may
differ materially from those contained in any forward looking statement.
The Company was formed on April 18, 1996, under the laws of the State of
New York to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be
organized under the business corporation law of the State of New York. The
Company was formed under the name of Soup Nutsy Corporation and operated a soup
restaurant in New York City until April, 1998 when the Company ceased its
operations. On October 29, 1998, the Company reached an agreement with the
former management of Soup Nutsy Corp. to transfer the Company's assets in
consideration for the assumption of certain liabilities. For the period from
October 30, 1998 until April 30, 1999, the Company remained dormant until the
Company entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement with Mont Granitos, SA ("Mont"),
a Brazilian corporation and is engaged in the mining of granite from eight
deposits in the state of Ceara to which it owns exploration rights. The Company
is in the organization stage which consists of development of the moneral
deposits and acquisition of equipment for the moning of the granite. Once mining
operations begin, the granite will be exported to international markets.
Development stage activities.
The following discussion relates to the results of the Company's operations
to date, and the Company's financial condition:
For the next 12 months, the Company plans to devote the majority of its
efforts to (i) developing its mineral reserves of granite obtaining new
customers for its products by continuing its marketing efforts (ii) enhancing
its production facilities for inventory, and (iii) pursuing and finding a
management team to continue the process of completing its marketing goals and to
market limited quantities of granite. The Company anticipates that its results
of operations may fluctuate for the foreseeable future due to several factors,
including whether and when new production facilities are brought on line ,
market acceptance of current or new production, competitive pressures on
pricing. Operating results would also be adversely affected by a downturn in the
market for granite. Because the Company is continuing to increase its operating
expenses for personnel and other general and administrative expenses, the
Company's operating results would be adversely affected if its sales did not
correspondingly increase. The Company's limited operating history makes accurate
prediction of future operating results difficult or impossible. Although the
Company has experienced growth in recent years, there can be no assurance that,
in the future, the Company will sustain revenue growth or remain profitable on a
quarterly or annual basis or that its growth will be consistent with predictions
made by securities analysts.
The Company has been a development stage enterprise since its date of
inception in 1996 to September 30, 1999. During this period, management had
devoted the majority of its efforts to obtaining new customers for its products,
enhancing its production facilities and mineral reserves for inventory, pursuing
and finding a management team to continue the process of completing its
marketing goals, marketing limited quantities of the granite, and obtaining
sufficient working capital through loans and equity through a private placement
offering. These activities were funded by the Company's management and an
investment from the United States parent upon the date of acquisition of
$950,000.

Results of operations.
Results of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 as
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the Company generated net
sales of $130,481 as compared to $71,485 for the nine months ended September 30,
1998 representing an increase of $58,996. The Company's cost of goods sold for
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $61,713 as compared to $62,140 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The Company's gross profit on sales
was $68,767 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to $9,343
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The increase in gross profit is
the result of the Company acquiring and placing into operation production
equipment.
The Company's general and administrative costs aggregated approximately
$799,483 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to $7,512 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1998 representing an increase of $791,971.
This increase represents compensation of $264,149; professional services of
$20,165; office and computer expenses of $14,024 and financial consulting
expenses 493,633.
Liquidity and capital resources.
The Company's liquidity is negative by $65,184. The Company's cash balance
at December 31, 1998 was $1,998 and has increased to $13,746 at September 30,
1999 through the process of developing profits from the sale of limited
quantities of granite and the payment of $950,000 to the Brazilian subsidiary
upon the acquisition and loans to the Company by the principal shareholders
aggregating $32,499.
The Company expended an aggregate of $698,535 for operations, reduced
Company loan payable to related party by $19,381; purchased property
improvements of $321,959; equipment of $411,272. In April 1999, the Company
received payment from the sale of the $950,000 outstanding Note Receivable that
was written off as of December 31, 1998 and received capital contributions of
$533,033 from Brazilians principals.
Income tax: As of September 30, 1999, the Company had a tax loss carry-forward
of $639,944. The Company's ability to utilize its tax credit carry-forwards in
future years will be subject to an annual limitation pursuant
16
<PAGE>
to the "Change in Ownership Rules" under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended. However, any annual limitation is not expected to have
a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to utilize its tax credit
carry-forwards.
The Company expects its capital requirements to increase over the next
several years as it continues to develop its business, increase sales and
administration infrastructure and embark on developing in-house business
capabilities and facilities. The Company's future liquidity and capital funding
requirements will depend on numerous factors, including the extent to which the
Company's present management can fund the continued capital requirements, the
costs and timing of expansion of sales, marketing activities, facilities
expansion needs, and competition in the business entered into.

ITEM 5. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Company's Bylaws, grants indemnification to the Company's officers and
directors, present and former, for expenses incurred by them in connection with
any proceeding that they are involved in by reason of their being or having been
an officer or director of the Company. The person being indemnified must have
acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the Company.
Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors or officers the Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of
the 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 Company
of expenses incurred or paid by a director or officer of the Company in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director or officer in connection with the securities being registered, the
Company will, unless in the opinion of its legal counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question of 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.

To The Board of Directors and Shareholders
of The Leonard Swindbourne The Second Acquisition Corp.
(formerly Soup Nutsey Corp.) (a development stage company)
I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of The Leonard Swindbourne The
Second Acquisition Corp. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 1998
and the related statements of operations, cash flows and shareholders' equity
for the year ended December 31, 1997 and 1998. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.
I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of The Leonard Swindbourne The
Second Acquisition Corp. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 1998
and the results of its operations, shareholders equity and cash flows for the
year ended December 31, 1997 and 1998 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
Fullcomm, Inc. (a development stage company) will continue as a going concern.
As more fully described in Note 2, the Company has incurred operating losses
since the date of reorganization and requires additional capital to continue
operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern. Management's plans as to these matters are
described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to
reflect the possible effects on the recoverability and classification of assets
or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the
possible inability of The Leonard Swindbourne The Second Acquisition Corp. (a
development stage company) to continue as a going concern.

stock were purchased partially with cash aggregating $50,000 and a Note
receivable in the amount of $950,000 ("$950,000 Note").
Note 2-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a. Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company
incurred net losses of $1,500 for the period from reorganization, October 29,
1998, to September 30, 1999. These factors indicate that the Company's
continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain adequate
financing. The Company will be relying upon the resources of management to
provide the necessary working capital to sustain the Company's existence until a
viable business opportunity can be located. The Company will require substantial
additional funds to finance its business activities on an ongoing basis and will
have a continuing long-term need to obtain additional financing once a viable
business opportunity is found.
The unaudited financial statements presented at September 30, 1999 consist
of the balance sheet as at September 30, 1999 and the statements of operations,
cash flows and stockholders equity for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
b. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Temporary investments with a maturity of less
than three months when purchased are treated as cash
c. Loss Per Share:
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the loss by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. For the
year ended, December 31, 1998, there were no dilutive securities outstanding.
d. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that effect 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.
Note 3 - Transfer of Assets
On October 29, 1998, the Company entered into a related party
transaction with the former management of the Company for the transfer of all
the Company's assets to Xenylic Xyris, Inc. in consideration for the assumption
of all the Company's liabilities as of that date.
The transaction has been accounted for as a transfer and is accounted
for at historical cost as if a pooling of interests had occurred with the
recording of the net assets transferred at their historical book value. The
financial statements of the Company have been retroactively restated to exclude
the combined statements of operations and cash flows for the period from
inception, in April 18, 1996, to October 28, 1998.
As part of the transaction Kumar Hathiramani and Surindar Aggarwal each
transferred 3,375,000 shares each to Roger Fidler and Jay Hait on October 29,
1998.
Note 4 - Note Receivable- Stock Subscription
In March, 1998, the Company offered 1,000,000 shares of common stock at
an offering price of $1.00 per share. The offering was fully subscribed to by
Thu Nguyen with the purchase of the shares for an aggregate consideration of
$1,000,000 consisting of the payment of an aggregate of $50,000 in cash and with
a Note in the amount of $950,000 dated May, 1998. The Note was with interest at
8.5% and immediately payable upon the earlier of 1) one month from the date the
Company becomes a reporting Company in compliance with the 1934 Securities
Exchange Act or 2) 6 months from the date of this Note.
The shares offered carry with them anti-diulution protection for a
period of time not to exceed three years. The anti-dilution rights allow for two
one time adjustments: 1) a one time protection against reverse stock splits or
other reorganizations that permit the issuance of up to an additional one
million shares, and 2) a one time protection against a decrease in the market
price if the price falls below $1.00 per share, up to one million shares may be
issued to restore the value of the total shares (including both the originals
shares sold and any anti-dilution shares issued) to $1,000,000.
As of December 31, 1998, the Note was in default as to payment and the
Company has set up a 100% reserve as a bad debt allowance.
Note 5 - Related Party transactions
a. Leased Office Space
The Company occupies office space on a month to month basis at 305 West
50th St., Suite 2k, New York, NY at $250 per month.
For the months of November and December, the Company has accrued $500
in rent.
b. Officer Salaries
No officer has received a salary in excess of $100,000.
For the period from reorganization, October 29, 1998, to December 31,
1998, the Company has accrued a minimal compensation of $500 per month as
compensation to Mr. Fidler as consideration for services while the Company is in
the development stage of development of $1,000.
c. Transfer of Shares of Common Stock and Change in Managerial Control.
As part of the transaction Kumar Hathiramani and Surindar Aggarwal each
transferred 3,375,000 shares each to Roger Fidler and Jay Hait on October 29,
1998 and resigned their offices with the Company.
This effectively changed the managerial control of the Company to Roger
Fidler who had accepted the position as an officer and sole director of the
Company.
Note 6 - Income Taxes
The Company provides for the tax effects of transactions reported in the
financial statements. The provision if any, consists of taxes currently due plus
deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of assets and
liabilities for financial and income tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and
liabilities, if any, represent the future tax return consequences of those
differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and
liabilities are recovered or settled. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had
no material current tax liability, deferred tax assets, or liabilities to impact
on the Company's financial position because the deferred tax asset related to
the Company's net operating loss carry forward and was fully offset by a
valuation allowance.
At December 31, 1998, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards for
income tax purposes of $1,500. These carry forward losses are available to
offset future taxable income, if any, and expire in the year 2010. The Company's
utilization of this carry forward against future taxable income may become
subject to an annual limitation due to a cumulative change in ownership of the
Company of more than 50 percent.
The components of the net deferred tax asset as of December 31, 1998 are as
follows:
Deferred tax asset:
Net operating loss carry forward $ 510
Valuation allowance $(510)
------
Net deferred tax asset $ -0-
The Company recognized no income tax benefit for the loss generated for the
period from reorganization, October 29, 1998, to December 31, 1998. SFAS No. 109
requires that a valuation allowance be provided if it is more likely than not
that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The
Company's ability to realize benefit of its deferred tax asset will depend on
the generation of future taxable income. Because the Company has yet to
recognize significant revenue from the sale of its products, the Company
believes that a full valuation allowance should be provided.
Note 7 - Development Stage Company
The Company is considered to be a development stage company with little
operating history. The Company is dependent upon the financial resources of the
Company's management and from the net proceeds of any private placement for its
continued existence. The Company will also be dependent upon its ability to
raise additional capital to complete is search for a new viable business
opportunity, management talent, and working capital to engage in any profitable
business activity. Since its reorganization, the Company's activities have been
limited to the search for a new viable business opportunity and office space.
Note 8 - Subsequent Events
In April, 1999, pursuant to the terms of the of the subscription
agreement under which the 1,000,000 shares were originally purchased by Thu
Nguyen in April, 1998, the outstanding Note receivable for the shares of common
stock subscribed to by Thu Nguyen were purchased by four unrelated parties and
the Note was paid with an aggregate consideration of $950,000 into the escrow
account of John Peterson, Esq. pursuant to the terms of the subscription
agreement, an additional 1,900,000 shares of common stock were issued without
further consideration.
On April 30, 1999, the Company issued 11,000,000 shares of common stock
in consideration for all the assets of Mont Granitos SA ("Mont"). The
transaction has been accounted for as the issuance of shares of common stock by
a public company for the net assets of a private Company, accompanied by a
recapitalization. Accordingly, the financial statements of Company became the
consolidated financial statements of Mont.

Note 2-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a. Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The unaudited financial statements presented at September 30, 1999
consist of the unaudited balance sheet as at September 30, 1999 and the
unaudited statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders equity for the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1999.
b. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Temporary investments with a maturity of less
than three months when purchased are treated as cash
c. Loss Per Share:
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the loss by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. For the
nine months ended September 30, 1999, there were no dilutive securities
outstanding.
d. Translation to US dollars
The US dollar amounts presented have been translated from the Brazilian
currency amounts in accordance with he criteria set forth in Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards 52 (SFAS 52) as applicable to the accounts and
transactions of a company operating in the currency of a country with a
non-highly inflationary economy.
As of July 01, 1997, the three years cumulative rate of inflation in
Brazil was less than 100% and the entity's functional currency became the
Brazilian real, the currency of the primary economic environment in which the
Company operates.
As the reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, the following criteria for
the translation of Brazilian reais to U.S. dollars was applied to the local
currency basis financial statements according to SFAS 52.
Assets and liabilities were translated by using the exchange rate at the
balance sheet date;
Revenues, expenses, gains, losses were translated by using the weighted
average exchange rate for the period from January 1, September 30, 1999.
The translation loss for the period from January 1, September 30, 1999
was reported separately as a component of shareholder's Equity (as a CTA
- -cumulative translation adjustment);
The capital account in Shareholder's equity was translated by using the
historical exchange rate.
e. Mining Rights
Mining exploration rights are stated at historical costs.
f. Revenues and Expenses
Revenues are recognized monthly based on a temporary-leasing contract.
Expenses and costs are recognized on the accrual basis.
g. Comprehensive Income
On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statements of Financial
Accounting Standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and
its components an a full set of financial statements. The statement requires
only additional disclosures in the consolidated financial statements; it does
not affect the Company's financial position or results of operations. No
relevant effects resulted from the application from the application of this
statement.
h. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that effect 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.
Note 3 - Acquisition of Mont Granitos, SA.
On April 30, 1999, the Company entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement
with Mont Granitos, SA ("Mont"), a Brazilian corporation, represented by
Franciso Mendes Aragao whereby the Company purchase all of the issued and
outstanding stock of Mont for the issuance of 11,000,000 shares of the Company's
common stock and $950,000 in cash.
The transaction has been accounted for as the issuance of shares of
common stock by a private company for the net assets of the Company, accompanied
by a recapitalization. Accordingly, the financial statements of Company became
the consolidated financial statements of Mont.
Note 4 - Note Receivable- Stock Subscription
In March, 1998, the Company offered 1,000,000 shares of common stock at
an offering price of $1.00 per share. The offering was fully subscribed to an
individual with the purchase of the shares for an aggregate consideration of
$1,000,000 consisting of the payment of an aggregate of $50,000 in cash and a
$950,000 Note dated May, 1998. The Note was with interest at 8.5% and
immediately payable upon the earlier of 1) one month from the date the Company
becomes a reporting Company in compliance with the 1934 Securities Exchange Act
or 2) 6 months from the date of the $950,000 Note.
The Shares offered carry with them anti-diulution protection for a
period of time not to exceed three years. The anti-dilution rights allow for two
one time adjustments: 1) a one time protection against reverse stock splits or
other reorganizations that permit the issuance of up to an additional one
million shares, and 2) a one time protection against a decrease in the market
price if the price falls below $1.00 per share, of up to one million shares so
that the market value of the total shares (including both the original shares
sold and any anti-dilution shares issued) may equal but not exceed $1,000,000.
As of December 31, 1998, the $950,000 Note was in default as to payment and
the Company has set up a 100% reserve as a bad debt allowance.
In April, 1999, the Note was sold for $950,000.
In April, 1999, pursuant to the anti dilution terms of a $950,000 Note
an additional 1,900,000 shares of common stock were issued without further
consideration.
Note 5 - Related Party transactions
a. Leased Office Space
The Company occupies office space on a month to month basis at 156 Main
Street, Hackensack, New Jersey at $250 per month.
For the months of November and December, the Company has accrued $500
in rent.
b. Officer Salaries
No officer has received a salary in excess of $100,000.
c. Transfer of Shares of Common Stock and Change in Managerial Control.
As part of the transaction Kumar Hathiramani and Surindar Aggarwal each
transferred 3,375,000 shares each to Roger Fidler and Jay Hait on October 29,
1998 and resigned their offices with the Company.
This effectively changed the managerial control of the Company to Roger
Fidler, who had accepted the position as President and sole director of the
Company.
d. Affiliated transactions
The Company has balances receivable and payable from the renting of
four mining deposits in the period from July 1, 1998 to June, 1999, with the
company Minevale - Mineracao Vale do Acarau Ltda. in which the controlling
shareholder of the Company holds an interest.
Accounts payable as of September 30, 1999, refers to exploration costs
of mining properties paid by Minevale - - Mineracao Vale do Acarau Ltda.., IMARF
- - Granitos e Mineracao S.A. and INBRASMA - Industria Brasileira de Marmores S.A.
in which the controlling shareholder of the Company holds an interest.
Note 6 - Commercial Commitment
On May 3, 1998, the Company executed a sales agreement with a Japanese
company by which it committed to sell 225,000 m3 (15% of the project estimated
production) of specified granite blocks from its mining deposits for total
proceeds of US$122,483,700 over 7 years. Sales under the agreement begin when
the Company is able to produce the rough blocks of granite under the buyer's
acceptable quality patterns and ends the 7th anniversary of the date of
execution or any time before, but not less than 6 months prior to the
termination date expressed by one of the parties.
Note 7 - Income Taxes
The Company provides for the tax effects of transactions reported in the
financial statements. The provision if any, consists of taxes currently due plus
deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of assets and
liabilities for financial and income tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and
liabilities, if any, represent the future tax return consequences of those
differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and
liabilities are recovered or settled. As of September 30, 1999, the Company had
no material current tax liability, deferred tax assets, or liabilities to impact
on the Company's financial position because the deferred tax asset related to
the Company's net operating loss carry forward and was fully offset by a
valuation allowance.
At September 30, 1999 the Company has net operating loss carry forwards for
income tax purposes of $639,944. These carry forward losses are available to
offset future taxable income, if any, and expire in the year 2010. The Company's
utilization of this carry forward against future taxable income may become
subject to an annual limitation due to a cumulative change in ownership of the
Company of more than 50 percent.
Income taxes in Brazil comprise federal income and social contribution
taxes. The statutory rates applicable in 1998 was 25% for income tax and 8% for
social contribution tax. (resulting in a composite rate of 33%.)
The Company is established in a tax incentive area and has the
intention to request for an exemption from income tax ( there is no exemption
for social contribution tax) for a period of ten years. If this exemption is
granted, the exempted amount must be recorded as a capital reserve under
Brazilian law.
The components of the net deferred tax asset as of September 30, 1999 are
as follows:
Deferred tax asset:
Net operating loss carry forward $ 217,580
Valuation allowance $(217,580)
----------
Net deferred tax asset $ -0-
The Company recognized no income tax benefit for the loss generated for the
period from inception to September 30, 1999. SFAS No. 109 requires that a
valuation allowance be provided if it is more likely than not that some portion
or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company's ability to
realize benefit of its deferred tax asset will depend on the generation of
future taxable income. Because the Company has yet to recognize significant
revenue from the sale of its products, the Company believes that a full
valuation allowance should be provided.
Note 8 - Development Stage Company
The Company is considered to be a development stage company which
consists of development of the mineral deposits and acquisition of equipment for
the mining of the granite. Once mining operations begin, the granite will be
exported to international markets. The Company is dependent upon the financial
resources of the Company's management and from the net proceeds of any private
placement for its continued existence. The Company will also be dependent upon
its ability to raise additional capital to complete the development of the
mineral property, find management talent, and working capital to engage in
mineral production.

neglect or refuse to fix the date of the meeting and give notice thereof, the
person or persons calling the meeting may do so.

objects stated in the call and matters germane thereto, unless all shareholders
entitled to vote are present and consent.

the duty of the directors, as a Board, to enforce payment of each such amount
disallowed. In lieu of payment by the officer or employee, subject to the
determination of the directors, proportionate amounts may be withheld from his
future compensation payments until the amount owed to the corporation has been
