OVERVIEW
THE COMPANY
General
Regenesis Holdings, Inc. (the "Company" or "Regenesis") was organized under
the laws of the State of Florida on July 6, 1993 under the name International
Pizza Corporation. On October 30, 1995, the Company changed its name to QPQ
Corporation, and on November 4, 1997, changed its name to Regenesis Holdings,
Inc. On August 8, 1997, the Company effected a reverse split of its outstanding
common stock at the rate of 1:20, and on September 17, 1997, it effected a
reverse split of its outstanding common stock at the rate of 1:3. The
information in this Report gives retroactive effect to such recapitalizations of
the Company.
The Company was originally formed to develop and operate Domino's Pizza
outlets in the Republic of Poland, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pizza
King Polska Sp z.o.o. ("Pizza King"). From August 1995 through September 3,
1997, the Company also operated medical centers offering primary care medical
services and medically supervised weight loss programs, through its wholly-owned
subsidiary QPQ Medical Centers, Inc. ("QPQ Medical").
Pursuant to an agreement dated May 23, 1997, the Company transferred its
interest in Pizza King, as well as certain related assets, to an unaffiliated
party in June 1997. Also in June 1997, the Company sold certain of its operating
weight loss centers, and on September 3, 1997, the Company sold its interest in
QPQ Medical, all to an unaffiliated party. The Company recorded a loss from
discontinued operations totaling $1,968,524 in connection with these sales.
As of December 31, 1998, the Company had no operating subsidiaries or
business operations, and had minimal cash and working capital. The Company's
ability to meet its general and administrative obligations is dependent upon its
ability to secure and develop new business opportunities through acquisitions or
business combinations. The Company intends to search for, investigate and
attempt to secure and develop business opportunities through acquisitions and/or
similar business combinations. However, there is no assurance that it will be
successful in such endeavors.
On December 22, 1998, Zirk Engelbrecht and Mario Gambuzzo, comprising all
of the directors of the Company, appointed Mitchell Sandler as director and, on
the same date, each of Messrs. Engelbrecht and Gambuzzo resigned. As a result, a
change in control of the Company's Board of Directors took place.
Subsequent Events
On January 20, 1999, Mr. Sandler appointed Russell Adler as a director of
the Company and the Chairman of its Board of Directors. Lawrence Gallo was
appointed as the Company's President and a member of the Board of Directors.
Messrs. Gallo and Adler have directed the Company's shift of focus to operations
in the Internet and related technology markets.
<PAGE>
On March 18 , 1999, the Company acquired all of the operating assets of
NetDisc, Inc. ("NetDisc") in exchange for 10,000 shares of the Company's common
stock. NetDisc is engaged in Internet advertising, and has developed CD
Rom/Internet technology which directs users to the Web sites of advertisers. In
connection with the asset purchase agreement, NetDisc pledged to an unaffiliated
third party all of the assets that it purchased. The Company assumed none of
NetDisc's liabilities.
The Company is currently evaluating other transactions consistent with its
focus on the Internet and technology markets. While the Company intends to seek
other business opportunities through acquisitions, reverse mergers or other
venture activities, the Company is not a party to any current agreements to
consummate such a transaction.
Employees
The Company currently has nine employees, all of which are full-time. The
Company's address and phone number are: 930 Washington Ave., 4th Floor, Miami
Beach, Florida 33139; (305) 695-4400.
Products
The Company, has developed a CD ROM/Internet product which enables it to
distribute CD ROM disks to retail consumer end users who are then able to
connect directly to advertisers' web sites via the internet (the "Netdisc"). The
Company believes that on each NetDisc it can package approxiamtely 40 minutes of
audio/video and data storage space. The Company's concept is to have its
Netdiscs inserted into various magazines so that advertisers on the Netdisc will
be able to pinpoint the thrust of their web advertising dollars towards the
specific audience of the magazine.
FACILITIES
The Company currently rents space at 666 5th Avenue, 37th FL, New York ,
New York 10103 under a one year contract at a base rate of $4,626 per month, and
also rents 4000 sq. ft. of office space under a renewable quarterly contract at
930 Washington Ave., 4th Floor, Miami Beach, Florida 33139 at a base rate of
$4,371 per month.

Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year
No options were granted in the last fiscal year.
Incentive and Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan
On October 3, 1997, the Company adopted 1997 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan")
which authorizes the issuance of options to purchase a maximum 1,000,000 shares
of common stock. All such shares have been included on a Form S-8 Registration
Statement, filed October 3, 1997.
The Company believes the Plan will work to increase the proprietary
interest in the Company of its directors, officers, employees and consultants,
and to align more closely their interests with the interests of the Company's
stockholders. The Plan will also maintain the Company's ability to attract and
retain the services of experienced and highly qualified employees and directors.
Under the Plan, the Company has reserved an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares
of common stock for issuance pursuant to options granted under the Plan ("Plan
Options"). The Board of Directors of the Company administers the Plan including,
without limitation, the selection of the persons who will be granted Plan
Options under the
<PAGE>
Plan, the type of Plan Options to be granted, the number of shares subject
to each Plan Option and the Plan Option price.
The Plan authorizes the issuance of incentive stock options ("ISOS") as
defined in Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, non-statutory
options ("NSOs") and together with ISOS,("Options"). In addition, the Plan also
allows for the inclusion of a reload option provision ("Reload Option"), which
permits an eligible person to pay the exercise price of the Plan Option with
shares of common stock owned by the eligible person and receive a new Plan
Option to purchase shares of common stock equal in number to the tendered
shares.
Any ISOS granted under the Plan must provide for an exercise price of at
least 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of such
grant, but the exercise price of any ISOS granted to an eligible person owning
more than 10% of the Company's common stock must be at least 110% of such fair
market value as determined on the date of the grant. The aggregate fair market
value of the shares covered by the ISOS granted under the Plan that become
exercisable by a Plan participant for the first time in any calendar year is
subject to a $100,000 limitation. The exercise price of each NSO is determined
by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof, in its discretion, provided
that the exercise price of an NSO is not less than fair value on the date of the
grant. The Board of Directors (or committee thereof), shall determine the term
of the Options; provided, however, that in no event may an ISO be exercisable
more than 10 years after the date of its grant and, in the case of an ISO
granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of the Company's common
stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant. Any option which is
granted shall be vested and exercisable at such time as determined by the Board
of Directors or a committee thereof.
The per share purchase price of shares subject to Plan Options granted
under the Plan may be adjusted in the event of certain changes in the Company's
capitalization, but any such adjustment shall not change the total purchase
price payable upon the exercise in full of Plan Options granted under the Plan.
As of December 31, 1998, there were options outstanding to purchase 1,667
shares of common stock granted pursuant to the Plan.

RISK FACTORS
An investment in the shares of Common Stock offered hereby involves a high
degree of risk and immediate and substantial dilution and should be made only by
persons who can afford a loss of their entire investment. In addition to the
other information in this Prospectus, the following risk factors should be
considered carefully in evaluating an investment in the shares of Common Stock
offered hereby.
Reliance Upon Management
The Company and its operations are dependent on its current officers and
directors, particularly Lawrence Gallo, and Mitchell Sandler - the CEO &
President, and Vice President, respectively, of the Company. In the event any of
these people were unavailable it would have a material adverse affect on the
Company's operations.
The Company has not obtained "key man" insurance policies on any of its
Officers. The expansion of the Company's business will be largely contingent on
its ability to attract and retain a highly qualified management and technical
team. There is no assurance that Company can find suitable management personnel
or will have the financial resources to attract or retain such people if found.
Arbitrary Offering Price
The initial offering price of the Shares has arbitrarily been determined by
the Company. There is no relationship to the book value of the Company or any
other recognized criteria of value.
Broker-Dealer Sales of Common Stock, Penny Stock Rules
As the Company's securities will not be listed on NASDAQ (and the Company
will not qualify for NASDAQ) or certain other national securities exchanges, it
is most likely that any resales of such securities will be below $5.00 and
subject to the requirements of the penny stock rules absent the availability of
another exemption. The SEC has adopted rules (Rules 15g-2 through l5g-6 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that regulate broker-dealer practices in
connection with transactions in "penny stocks". Penny stocks generally are any
non-NASDAQ equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, subject to certain
exceptions. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer to deliver a
standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, to provide the
customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the
compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction,
monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in
the customers account, to make a special written determination that the penny
stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's
written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the
effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary
market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. As the
Company's securities will be subject to the penny stock rules, investors in this
offering may find it more difficult to sell their securities. If the Company's
securities were subject to the existing or proposed regulations on penny stocks,
the market liquidity for the Company's securities could be severely and
adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell the
Company's securities and the ability of purchasers in this offering to sell
their securities in any secondary market.
Need for Proceeds of Offering, and Subsequent Funding; No Assurance of
Future Offering
The Company has an immediate need for the proceeds of this offering in
order to finance its business operations and commence Implementation of its
business plans. The Company's ability to continue in business and effectively
implement its plans may depend upon its ability to raise additional funds. There
is no assurance that additional funding, if required, will be obtainable at
terms favorable or acceptable to the Company. The capital resources required to
develop each new product are significant. The Company believes that the net
proceeds of the Offering, combined with cash on hand and cash generated from
future operations, will provide the Company with the financing required to
conduct its business at least through the second fiscal quarter of 2000.
Control by Present Shareholders
The Shares offered hereby will represent a large part of the Company's
outstanding voting stock after its issuance. However, the majority of shares
offered hereby will be sold to the majority shareholders of the Company.
Therefore, the present shareholders, particularly Lawrence Gallo, Mitchell
Sandler, and Russell Adler, as majority shareholders of the Company, will be in
a position to continue to elect all of the Company's officers and directors.
There are no cumulative voting rights.
Lack of Dividends
The Company has not paid any cash dividends since its inception and doesn't
intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company intends to retain
all earnings, if any, for use in its business operations.
Possible Rule 144 Shares
A large minority of the shares of Common Stock presently outstanding are
considered "restricted securities". If and only if, a public market develops,
they may be publicly resold in compliance with Rule 144 adopted under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended effective April, 1997. Rule 144 provides, in
part, that after holding restricted securities for a period of one (1) year
non-affiliated shareholders (affiliates include officers, directors, and ten
percent or greater shareholders) may , during any three months, in a brokerage
transaction, or to a market maker, an amount equal to the greater of one percent
(1%) of the Company's outstanding Common Stock, or the average weekly trading
volume, if any, in the Common Stock during four calendar weeks preceding the
filing of a Form 144 relating to such sale. After two (2) years non-affiliated
shareholders (who have been non-affiliates for at least three months) may sell
an unlimited amount of the Company's outstanding Common Stock. Rule 144 also
provides that after holding restricted securities for a period of two (2) years,
affiliates of the company may sell every third month in a brokerage transaction,
or to a market maker, an amount equal to the greater of one percent (1%) of the
Company's outstanding Common Stock, or the average weekly trading volume, if
any, in the Common Stock during four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a
Form 144 relating to such sale. Such sales, if made under certain circumstances,
would depress the market price and render difficult the sale of the Company's
securities purchased hereunder. The outstanding shares will be eligible for sale
pursuant to Rule 144 in June 2001.
Use of Proceeds Not Specified
Since there will be no proceeds from this offfering except for the $287,500
the Company will receive if and when the options registered hereby are executed,
all of the proceeds of this offering will be allocated to working capital. Use
of the proceeds in this manner will be dependent upon the Company's needs.
Hence, investors will entrust their funds to management on whose judgment the
investors must depend, with only limited information about the specific purposes
to which management will apply such funds. See "Use of Proceeds".
Dependence on Key Personnel
The Company will be dependent on its current management for the foreseeable
future. The loss of the services of any member of these teams could have a
material adverse effect on the operations and prospects of the Company. The
Company's success will be dependent to a substantial degree on the principals of
the Company, the Company's technicians and sales force, and other key management
personnel. Lawrence Gallo's continued involvement is particularly critical to
the Company. At this time, the Company has only employment agreements with
Russell Adler, Lawrence Gallo, Mitchell sandler, and Joel Brownstein - all of
the Company's directors and executive officers. It is anticipated that upon
completion of this offering, the Company may enter into such employment
agreements with certain of its employees, on terms and conditions usual and
customary for its industry. The Company does not currently have any "key man"
life insurance on any of its employees, however, it is contemplated that the
Company may use some of the proceeds from this Offering to obtain such insurance
for certain of its key employees.
Competition
The Company is aware of several companies with competing products and
technologies who seem to have superior financial and other strengths than the
Company. There is no assurance that there are not other competitors of which the
Company is unaware. There is no assurance the Company will be able to compete
successfully with such other companies. There can be no assurances that similar
products and services to that of the Company developed by the Company's
competitors will not successfully compete with the Company in price and quality
of Service, resulting in material adverse effects on the future business of the
Company.
Broad Discretion in Application of Proceeds
The Use of Proceeds stated in this Memorandum represent the Company's
estimates based on its current business plan. A substantial percentage of the
proceeds may be used for repayment of indebtedness, marketing and inventory,
Accordingly, management of the Company will have broad discretion in the
application of such proceeds. See "Use of Proceeds,"
Changes in Law
Although the Company does not believe that either its services or the
products are or will be subject to specific governmental regulation, new laws
may be passed or new regulations may be adopted that impose regulations not now
existing. If new or revised laws or regulations become applicable, this could
adversely affect the Company's performance.
Dependence on Market Acceptance of the Company's Services
The Company will concentrate its efforts primarily on the marketing of its
services and products. The future performance of the Company is dependent on the
success of the Company's marketing of its products and services. It is not
possible to predict whether the Company will achieve market acceptance of its
services and products. The extent of, and rate at which, market acceptance and
penetration is achieved by the Company's products is a function of many
variables, including price, efficiency, acceptance by the marketplace,
manufacturing capabilities (including quality control), and the effectiveness of
the Company's marketing and sales efforts.
Indemnification
The Company's By-Laws include provisions that indemnify any person made a
Party to any action, suit or proceeding, by reason of the fact that he is or was
a director, officer or employee of the Company against reasonable expense
including legal fees, actually or necessarily incurred by him in connection with
the defense of such action, suit or proceedings or in connection with any appeal
therein, that such officer, director, or employee is liable for negligence or
misconduct in the performance of his duties.
Patent Infringement Liability; Products Liability; Possibility of
Insufficient Insurance Coverage
If the Company is found liable for a patent infringement or intellectual
property claim that exceeds the sum of any covering insurance policies to be
purchased with the proceeds of this offering, if any, the Company will have to
absorb the excess liability, which will adversely affect the Company's financial
condition.
The Company believes that its products and technologies are safe for the
environment and for people. It is possible that future developments will reveal
product risks not currently known. The Company expects to provide a product to
be used in public places which encounter hundreds of thousands of people daily.
The product will be used, in some instances, to access customer funds, and in
many cases may access all the funds and financial accounts that a person may
have. If the products do not perform as expected, the Company could experience
significant liability for personal injury and or other financial damage. This
type of liability could seriously impair the Company's financial condition.
The Company currently has no liability insurance. If the Company were to
buy such insurance, there is no assurance the coverage would be adequate for its
present needs, and there is no assurance that the Company would be able to
maintain a said policy of such insurance; or that coverage would be sufficient
or available to cover all possible product liabilities. In the event of a
successful suit against the Company, lack or insufficiency of insurance coverage
could have a Material adv
erse effect on the Company.
<PAGE>

herein by reference:
(a) The Registrant's Annual Reports on Form 10-KSB for the
fiscal years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998;

(c) See Item 4, Description of Securities below.
All documents filed subsequent to the date of this Registration Statement
pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act and prior to the
filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered
have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall
be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to
be a part hereof from the date of the filing of such documents. Any statement
contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated herein by
reference shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this
Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any
other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated
by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
The Common Stock of the Registrant is registered under Section 12(g) of the
Exchange Act.
All of the 2,978,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the
"Common Stock"), offered hereby are being offered by Regenesis Holdings, Inc.
(the "Registrant"). On December 15, 1998, the Company's common stock was
delisted from the OTC Bulletin Board for failure to comply with Rule 15c-211 and
has not traded publicly since that date.
SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY:
The Registrant is authorized to issue 110,000,000 shares of which
100,000,000 shares are alloacted to two classes of common stock with a par value
of $.01 per share and 10,000,000 are Preferred Stock with a par value of $.01
per share. As of the date hereof, the Registrant had 4,408,429 shares of Common
Stock outstanding. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each
share held of record on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders. There
is no cumulative voting for election of directors. Subject to the prior rights
of any series of Preferred Stock which may from time to time be outstanding, if
any, holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as, and if
declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor and,
upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Registrant, are entitled
to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and
payment of accrued dividends and liquidation preferences on the Preferred Stock,
if any. Holders of Common Stock have no preemptive rights and have no rights to
convert their Common Stock into any other securities. All outstanding shares of
Common Stock are, and the shares of Common Stock offered hereby upon issuance,
will be, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
The Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the
issuance of Preferred Stock with such designations, rights and preferences as
may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. Accordingly, the
Board is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue Preferred Stock with
dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely
affect the relative voting power or other rights of the holders of the
Registrant's Common Stock. In the event of issuance, the Preferred Stock could
be used, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or
preventing a change in control of the Registrant. Although the Registrant has no
present intention to issue any shares of Preferred Stock, there can be no
assurance that the Registrant will not do so in the future. If the Registrant
issues shares of Preferred Stock, the issuance may have a dilutive effect upon
the holders of the Registrant's Common Stock, including the purchasers of the
shares being offered hereby.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Roger L. Fidler, Esq., has passed upon the legality under the law of
Florida, the state in which the Company is incorporated, of the Common Stock of
the Company being offered hereby. Mr. Fidler holds 3,000 shares of the Company's
stock which have been received for the preparation and submission of this
offering document.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 607.0850 of Florida Statutes authorizes a corporation, under
certain circumstances, to indemnify its directors and officers (including
reimbursement for expenses incurred). The registrant has provided for
indemnification to the extent permitted by the provisions of the Florida statute
in its charter and by-laws.

Item 9. Undertakings
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any
period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to
this registration statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any
facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement
(or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in
the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in
the registration statement; (iii) To include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
statement or any material change to such information in the registration
statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8, and the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated
by reference in the registration statement. (2) That, for the purpose of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, 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.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in this
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the provisions described under Item 6 above, 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 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 appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
