PROXY STATEMENT
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD AUGUST 1, 1995
IN GENERAL
This statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies
by the Board of Directors of Com-Tek Resources, Inc. (the "Company"), to be used
at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the "Meeting") to be held at
10:00 a.m. local London, England time, on August 1, 1995 for the purposes set
forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. The
enclosed material was sent on or about June _____, 1995 to record shareholders
of the Company.
The shares covered by the enclosed proxy, if received by the Board of
Directors prior to the Meeting, will be voted in favor of the proposals to be
considered at the Meeting unless such proxy specifies otherwise. A proxy may be
revoked at any time before it is exercised by giving written notice to the
Secretary of the Company at its above address or by a subsequently executed
proxy. Shareholders may vote their shares in person if they attend the Meeting,
even if they have executed and returned a proxy.
The matters to be brought before the Meeting are set forth in the Notice of
Annual General Meeting attached hereto.
VOTING SECURITIES
Only shareholders of record at the close of business on June 9, 1995 will
be entitled to vote at the Meeting. On that date, there were issued and
outstanding 141,262,074 shares of the Company's $.01 par value Common Stock, and
3,396,560 shares of the Company's $1.00 par value Preferred Stock.
On matters to be acted upon at the Meeting, each share of Common Stock is
entitled to one vote per share, and each share of
<PAGE>
Preferred Stock is entitled to twenty-two (22) votes per share (collectively
"the aggregate eligible votes").
A majority of the aggregate eligible votes, represented in person or by
proxy of the Common Stock and Preferred Stock, will constitute a quorum for the
transaction of business at the Meeting. A vote of the majority of the quorum
will be required to elect directors, change the Company's name, and ratify
appointment of the independent auditors. A majority vote of the outstanding
aggregate eligible votes and a majority of the outstanding Common Stock voting
separately as a class will be required to approve the proposal to increase the
number of the Company's authorized Common Stock. Shares which are present by
proxy or in person at the Meeting which indicate abstentions from voting or are
received from brokers as "non-votes" will be counted for purposes of determining
a quorum only. Such abstentions and broker non-votes will be, in effect, votes
against the proposals to increase its authorized Common Stock inasmuch as such
proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of all eligible votes and a
majority of all shares of Common Stock voting as a class.
PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS AND SHAREHOLDINGS OF MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth information as of May 31, 1995, regarding
the shares of the Company's Common Stock and Preferred Stock beneficially owned
by persons owning greater than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock or Preferred
Stock, by each of the executive officers and nominees for director of the

MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES
The full Board of Directors held 3 meetings during fiscal 1994. Each
director attended at least 75% of the meetings. At present, the Company has not

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
In January 1994, Mr. Dowd was issued 300,000 shares of Common Stock for
satisfaction of a $15,000 outstanding debt owed to him. The indebtedness to Mr.
Dowd was comprised of his salary which had accrued but which the Company was
unable to pay. The shares issued were unregistered and not readily saleable but
nonetheless taxable to Mr. Dowd. The shares of the Company's Common Stock were
quoted during this period at $.0325 bid, compared to Mr. Dowd's effective price
of $0.05 per share.
-12-
<PAGE>
Two directors, Messrs. Stone and Leung were parties to the Access Power
Agreement described in detail under Proposal No. 2(B) which is hereby
incorporated by reference. The transaction referred to was negotiated at arm's-
length prior to Messrs. Stone and Leung being elected to the Company's Board of
Directors.
On December 21, 1994, the Company borrowed $50,000 from an affiliate of Mr.
Malcolm Stone, an officer and director of the Company, in order to pay accounts
incurred in the U.K. offer and placing described above. On February 16, 1995
this amount, plus $12,500 in fees and commissions, were repaid to Mr. Stone's
affiliate.
On March 31, 1995, the Board of Directors authorized and on or about May
17, 1995 the transfer agent issued, common stock of the Company in the amounts
specified in the table below. These shares were issued for cancellation of
accrued, unpaid directors fees for directors and/or officers serving in a
nonexecutive capacity at the time such fees were earned. The shares were
unregistered and not readily saleable and reflected a modest premium to the then
prevailing market price of the stock, approximately $0.065 per share.

Company be changed to "Powerhouse Resources, Inc." This name change is more
descriptive of its expanded business activities. See below.
(B) INCREASE THE COMPANY'S SHARES OF AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK. Pursuant
to the recent financing and acquisition transactions described below, the
Company issued shares of its Preferred Stock which are convertible into its
Common Stock. However, at present, the Company has an insufficient number of
shares of authorized Common Stock to accommodate such conversions. Approval of
this proposal will allow for the conversion of the Company's Preferred Stock and
provide additional authorized Common Stock for future financing and/or
acquisition transactions, although there are no agreements, plans, arrangements
or understandings with respect thereto at present except as described herein.
BACKGROUND OF PROPOSALS (A) AND (B) ABOVE
Reference is made to the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders which
accompanies this Proxy Statement and in particular to the financial statements
contained therein. The Company's precarious financial position was reflected in
the financial statements and in the independent auditor's report which
highlighted, in an explanatory paragraph, the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.
In its previous communications to shareholders and reports filed under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company stressed its intentions to: (i)
seek capital funding; and (ii) pursue various opportunities to expand the
Company's business activities. The Board of Directors has succeeded in
accomplishing
-14-
<PAGE>
both goals and each required the issuance of, or the commitment to issue, its
equity securities including all of its presently authorized Common Stock. To
meet certain conversion and exercise rights under the transactions described
below, and to provide additional authorized shares of its Common Stock for
possible corporate use in the future, the Board of Directors unanimously
recommends that shareholders authorize the increase in the Company's
capitalization.
SUMMARY OF RECENT FINANCING
In February, 1995, English Trust Company Limited completed a placing and
underwriting in the United Kingdom of 61,000,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock (at 4 pence per share) and an open offer and placing of 3,262,500 shares
of its Preferred Stock (at 80 pence per share) (collectively, the "offer and
placing") resulting in gross offering proceeds of L5,050,000 (approximately
$8,080,000 U.S. at then current exchange rates). All shares were qualified for
dealing on the Unlisted Securities Market ("USM"), a facility of the
International Stock Exchange of the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland, Ltd.
("London Stock Exchange").
Upon completion of the offer and placing, the Company had approximately 140
million of its authorized 150 million shares of Common Stock outstanding.
The Preferred Stock was issued with the attendant terms and conditions:
(i) Each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into 22 shares of
Common Stock. Such conversion will automatically occur upon the
passing of the resolution increasing the number of shares of
authorized Common Stock at the Meeting.
(ii) If the shareholders fail to pass the resolution increasing the
authorized Common Stock or the Company fails to present the
resolution to the shareholders by June 30, 1995, the Company is
obligated to file a registration statement under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "Act") in respect of the Preferred Stock by September
30, 1995. Such registration will enable the Preferred Stock to be
-15-
<PAGE>
traded on NASDAQ, subject to NASDAQ's acceptance thereof.
(iii) Each share of Preferred Stock is entitled, until converted, to 22
votes at any shareholders' meeting and to 22 times the dividend or
other distribution, in cash or kind, made to the Common Stock.
(iv) Holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to receive reports and
quarterly statements delivered by the Company to holders of Common
Stock.
Hence, if the proposed increase in the Company's authorized Common Stock is
approved by shareholders, the 3,262,500 shares of Preferred Stock issued in the
recent open offer and placing will be automatically converted into 71,775,000
shares of Common Stock and all preferences will be extinguished.
ACCESS POWER AGREEMENT
In November, 1994, the Company reached an agreement in principle, which was
subsequently executed in definitive form on January 17, 1995, to acquire the
entire issued share capital of Access Power, Ltd., along with Access Power's
interests in certain joint ventures. Access Power is currently in the
development stage, seeking to develop, or participate in the development of,
small scale power projects, principally in the Peoples Republic of China and
elsewhere in the Far East. The Company acquired Access Power concurrent with
the closing of the offer and placing described above on February 14, 1995.
Under the terms of the Access Power agreement the Company is required to
issue 30,303 shares of Preferred Stock and 8,250,000 Warrants to purchase the
Company's Common Stock (at $0.075 per share), for each one of three power
generating projects which Access Power has presently entered into joint venture
agreements for and for which the joint ventures have received licenses to
construct the power plants. The Preferred Stock and Warrants are to be issued
in three installments as certain benchmarks are achieved related to the
development of each project. The first 1/3 of such Preferred Stock and Warrants
are to be issued upon execution of all appropriate contracts and receipt of the
business license for each project. The second 1/3 of such Preferred Stock
-16-
<PAGE>
and Warrants are to be issued upon issuance of the completion certificate for
each project. The last 1/3 of such Preferred Stock and Warrants are to be
issued upon receipt of revenue from each project. A total of 90,909 shares of
Preferred Stock (convertible into approximately 2,000,000 shares of Common
Stock) and 24,750,000 Warrants are to be issued in connection with the initial
three power plant projects.
Also under the terms of the Access Power agreement, the Company has agreed
to issue an additional 30,303 shares of Preferred Stock and an additional
8,250,000 Warrants to purchase Common Stock at $0.075 per share, for each of up
to nine additional projects in Guangdong Province, China, that the principals
may introduce to the Company. A total of 272,727 shares of Preferred Stock
(convertible into approximately 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock) and 74,250,000
Warrants may be issued in connection with up to nine subsequent power plants.
The principals have also been issued a total of 30,303 shares of Preferred
Stock plus 8,250,000 Warrants to purchase the Company's Common Stock (at $0.075
per share) and have received reimbursement of expenses of $25,000 in
consideration for Access Power's 10% interest in a western joint venture partner
which has a 54% interest in a 50 megawatt power plant project in China.
The acquisition of Access Power has been accounted for as a purchase. The
Preferred Stock to be issued attributable to the first three power plants and
the Preferred Stock to be issued attributable to the interest in the 50 megawatt
power plant project, has been recorded at its aggregate market value, determined
by reference to the price of the Preferred Stock issued in the offer and placing
that closed concurrent with the Access Power agreement. No value has been
attributed to the Warrants that are to be issued along with the Preferred Stock.
The Company believes that the value of such Warrants is nominal, since the
exercise of the Warrants was more than 20% above the then market price of the
Common Stock. Access Power had no assets or liabilities at the time of the
acquisition; accordingly, the entire amount of the consideration for the
acquisition has been recorded as an intangible asset (Power Plant Licenses), to
be amortized over the 15 year term of the associated power purchase agreements.
-17-
<PAGE>
Under the terms of separate agreements, the principals received 72,454
shares of Preferred Stock in connection with services provided by them relating
to the offer and placing. The value of the shares issued was recorded as a cost
of the offering and placing. The principals are also entitled to a commission
of 1-1/2% (payable in Preferred Stock) for arranging multi-project financing
packages of up to $20 million for the proposed power projects.
Additionally, the agreement requires the Company to pay to the principals
consideration of up to 10% of the gross projected cost of other projects
introduced, with certain limitations. The consideration is payable in Preferred
or Common Stock of the Company.
Upon becoming directors of the Company, each of the principals became
entitled to participate in the Company's Stock option plan. Each principal can
receive options to purchase up to 22,500,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.075
per share. Options for 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock are to be issued to
each of the principals upon Access Power entering into a joint venture agreement
for the construction and operation of 4 megawatt power plants in China, up to a
maximum of 9 projects. All options will become exercisable in equal
installments as the benchmarks described above for the Warrants are achieved.
Options for 15,000,000 shares of Common Stock have been issued in connection
with the three initial power plant projects. The options expire three years
from date of issue.
Additional shares, if any, of Preferred Stock (or equivalent shares of
Common Stock) that are issued to the principals of Access Power in connection
with future power plant projects will be recorded at then market value of the
shares issued. Any additional Warrants and Options that are issued in
connection with such power plant projects will be accounted for in accordance
with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, and compensa-
tion expenses will be recorded as the Warrants and Options are issued and become
exercisable, to the extent that the then market price of the Common Stock
exceeds the exercise price of the Warrants and Options.

INFORMATION CONCERNING ACCESS POWER, LTD.
As noted above, Messrs. Stone and Leung have many years of experience in
various business activities in the Far East, including China. Since the early
1990's these persons sought out power generation opportunities in China. They
identified the opportunity to construct small power stations in China in joint
ventures with local power bureaux and local authorities and have negotiated
agreements for the construction and operation of certain power stations.
Access Power was incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands
in May, 1994 by Messrs. Stone and Leung who became equal 50% owners. All of
their rights, title and interest in all agreements, pending agreements and
agreements being negotiated were assigned to Access Power on its formation.
Except for entering into the joint ventures and assisting in the establishment
of a 50 megawatt power project, Access Power had no obligations except those
arising from the joint venture contracts and has had no revenue, appreciable
expenses or income since incorporation. Therefore, Access Power has no history
of operations, operating financial statements or per share earnings. Because
Messrs. Stone and Leung had no material identifiable cash cost in the assets
assigned to Access Power, it has no assets, liabilities or stockholders' equity
and no book value per share. The accounting treatment for the acquisition is
set forth under Pro Forma Financial Information below.
The Company was introduced to Messrs. Stone and Leung in the fall of 1994.
Prior to entering into negotiations with the Company, there were no transactions
or agreements between the Company and Access Power and/or Messrs. Stone and
Leung.
The Access Power Agreement, described in detail above, was structured
through extensive negotiations between the Company and Messrs. Stone and Leung
on behalf of Access Power. First, a total consideration was determined with
payment to be contingent on Access Power meeting certain benchmarks as described
above. Secondly, additional consideration was negotiated dependent, as was the
entire Access Power Agreement, on the successful completion of the offer and
placing in the United Kingdom also discussed above. Finally, additional
consideration was agreed if Access Power were
-19-
<PAGE>
able to secure certain credit facilities from European institutional lenders.
The following table sets forth the aggregate consideration earned by Messrs.
Stone and Leung and the consideration which is contingent on completion of the
events described above:

PROPOSAL NUMBER THREE--RATIFICATION

The Board of Directors, subject to ratification by the shareholders at the
Meeting, has appointed KPMG Peat Marwick LLP as independent auditors of the
Company for the year ending September 30, 1995. KPMG Peat Marwick LLP was

Denver, Colorado firm of Ehrhardt Keefe Steiner & Hottman, P.C. ("EKS&H") for
its two fiscal years ended September 30, 1993 and 1994. The Board of Directors
believes that an international accounting firm is necessary to service its needs
given its expanded business activities. There have been no material
disagreements between the Company and EKS&H as to any matter of accounting
principle, practice or financial statement disclosure.
Representatives of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP are expected to be available by
telephone at the Meeting and will be available to respond to appropriate
shareholder questions.
