OVERVIEW
We are a project engineering company that designs and installs specialty
communication systems for data, voice, video and telecom. We determine our
clients' requirements by doing a need analysis and site audit. Then we implement
our design and specification of the specialty communication system, which may
include Wireless Fidelity, or Wi-Fi, with the deployment of a fixed Wireless
Local Area Network. We believe we can integrate superior solutions across a vast
majority of communication requirements because we have experts in each aspect of
communication services from the design, project management, the installation of
our products through the maintaining of our products. We earn revenue for
services rendered which include; (i) the installation of data, voice, video and
telecom networks; (ii) the sale of networking products that are installed and
(iii) consulting services in the assessment of existing networks.
We have a multi-faceted approach to our business model. One is the continued
focus on our core competency of project management in wired networking
infrastructure, design, installation and support of data, voice and video
communications solutions. Second, is to leverage that expertise in our pursuit
of the infrastructure build-out of Wi-Fi, Wireless Local Area Networks and Voice
over Internet Protocol, or VoIP, applications.
With our experience and expertise in the wired networking infrastructure
industry, we can design, manage, install and service our wireless customers with
the same processes, personnel and management. Many of our competitors are new to
deploying wireless infrastructure and have never installed any type of
infrastructure. We believe we can leverage our expertise to compete in this new
technology. We conduct operations through our subsidiary.
HISTORY
We incorporated in the State of Nevada as Color Strategies on March 24, 1998. On
October 1, 1999, we created a wholly-owned subsidiary named Infinite Technology
Holding, Inc. On December 23, 1999, we changed our name to Infinite Technology
Corporation. On May 4, 2000, we changed our name from Infinite Technology
Corporation to Network Installation Corporation. On the same date, we changed
the name of our wholly-owned subsidiary to Network Installation Holdings, Inc.
In May of 2000, we acquired Mardock, Inc., a designer, manufacturer and
distributor of apparel and promotional products. In August 2000, we acquired a
majority interest in North Texas Circuit Board Co., or NTCB, through the
acquisition of 67% of the common stock of Primavera Corporation, the parent
company of NTCB, in exchange for 195,000 shares of our common stock, valued at
$325,000, plus a contribution of $1,250,000 in cash to NTCB as additional
working capital. NTCB manufactures high quality printed circuit boards. In
September 2000, we acquired 80% of the outstanding stock of OpiTV.com. OpiTV.com
was an I-commerce technology company in the development stage with a business
plan to market and distribute a TV device. In November 2000, we acquired an
additional 13% of Primavera Corporation. This increase in equity brought our
indirect ownership of NTCB from 67% to 80%.
In late 2000, we determined that our capital and management resources were
spread too thin to properly address the needs of our three subsidiaries. As a
result, in July of 2001, we sold all of our common stock ownership in Mardock,
Inc. and OpiTV.com.
In July 2001, we acquired the remaining 20% of Primavera's common stock. On
August 20, 2002, we sold NTCB to a third party in exchange for cancellation of
debt of approximately $2,255,860 and retention by us of a 10% interest in the
after tax profit of NTCB for a period of five years subsequent to the
consummation of the transaction. On December 27, 2002, we disposed of 100% of
Flexxtech Holdings, Inc. Flexxtech Holdings was the parent corporation of
Primavera Corporation. After the sale of NTCB, Flexxtech Holdings had no
significant assets and was disposed of to Western Cottonwood Corp., an
affiliate, for nominal consideration of $10.
On October 1, 2002, we signed to acquire 80% of the outstanding common shares of
W3M, Inc., dba Paradigm Cabling Systems, a privately held California
corporation, in a stock for stock exchange. Paradigm is a full service computer
cabling, networking and telecommunications integrator contractor. As part of the
transaction, we agreed to use our best efforts to arrange for an infusion of
$250,000 in additional capital, either as debt or equity or some combination of
both, to Paradigm, in order to increase its working capital. However, we were
unable to arrange infusion of the capital per the agreement.
On April 8, 2003, we and Paradigm agreed that the transaction is void ab initio,
that is, at its inception, with the effect that Paradigm remains the owner of
all of its assets and the shares of our preferred stock are restored to the
status of authorized shares. The Purchase Agreement and all related documents
and all documents delivered in connection therewith were thereby terminated ab
initio and are of no force or effect whatsoever. In connection with funds
invested as working capital into Paradigm during the period from October 1, 2002
until April 1, 2003, we issued to Ashford Capital LLC and eFund Capital/Barrett
Evans, 5 year convertible debentures in the amount of $65,000 and $75,000
respectively. Ashford and eFund made investments directly into Paradigm under
the assumption that a merger between Paradigm and us would be consummated. As
part of the rescission negotiations, we agreed to issue the debentures to
Ashford and eFund. Michael Cummings, President of Paradigm also resigned as a
Director of our Board of Directors.
On April 9, 2003, we executed a Restructuring Agreement. The Agreement was
executed to restructure our balance sheet in order to more easily attract an
operating business to merge with or acquire. Pursuant to the Restructuring
Agreement, Western Cottonwood Corporation, a related party through a major
shareholder, agreed to forgive its notes receivable and interest receivable from
us as of December 31, 2002. The receivable totaling $1,984,850 was booked in
consideration for cash we received from Western Cottonwood. The receivable
totaling $1,984,850, was forgiven in exchange for shares of our common stock
totaling 4.9% of the total outstanding shares immediately following our first
merger or acquisition transaction. At the time of the transaction, the principal
shareholder of Western Cottonwood Corporation and Atlantis Partners, Inc. was
John Freeland, formerly our largest investor. Mr. Freeland was also formerly an
affiliate through his beneficial ownership of 23% of our total outstanding
shares through Western Cottonwood. To our knowledge, Mr. Freeland is no longer
an affiliate. Pursuant to the agreement, (i) Western Cottonwood and Atlantis
Partners shall maintain a combined ownership percentage of a non-dilutive 4.9%
and Greg Mardock, our former president, shall maintain a combined ownership
percentage of a non-dilutive 2% through our first merger or acquisition
transaction and (ii) Mr. Mardock resigned as President and Director(iii) three
nominees of Dutchess Private Equities Fund, LP were appointed directors.
In April 2003, we executed a Letter of Intent to merge with Irvine, CA- based
Network Installation Corporation. The transaction closed in May, 2003. The total
consideration and method of payment was $50,000 in cash and 7,382,000 shares of
our common stock. In addition, we issued a five year option to purchase an
additional 618,000 shares of our common stock to Mr. Cummings if our total
revenue exceeded $450,000 for the period beginning on June 1, 2003 and ending
August 31, 2003. The option is exercisable at a price equal to the closing bid
price of our common stock on August 29, 2003 which was $2.95. Since our total
revenues exceeded $450,000 for the period beginning on June 1, 2003 and ending
August 31, 2003, Mr. Cummings can exercise the option to purchase 618,000 shares
of our common stock.
Network Installation was established in July 1997 as a California corporation as
a low voltage-cabling contractor and in 1999 changed its focus to provide
products, project management, design and installation within the networking and
communications sector.
On March 1, 2004, we acquired Del Mar Systems International, Inc., a
telecommunications solutions provider. We now have the ability to provide
integrated telecom solutions to customers ranging in size from 10 to 30,000
users. Del Mar provides Avaya Enterprise Class IP Solutions to customers as a
way to capitalize on the benefits of IP (Internet Protocol) Telephony. Avaya
offers a complete communications architecture that provides software,
infrastructure and services to help enterprises stay efficient. Del Mar Systems
offers both onsite and remote administration of systems equipped with remote
access dial up lines. Del Mar has delivered communication solutions to many well
known companies including General Electric, Western Digital, Bank of America,
SAIC, Marriott, Holiday Inn, Sheraton and Hilton Hotels throughout the U.S.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW (SPECIALTY COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS)
A structured cabling system is a set of cabling and connectivity products that
integrates the voice, data, video, and various management systems of a building,
such as safety alarms, security access and energy systems. These systems
typically consist of an open architecture, standardized media and layout,
standard connection interfaces, adherence to national and international
standards, and total system design and installation. Other than the structured
cabling system, voice, data, video, and building management systems have nothing
in common except similar transmission characteristics, such as analog or digital
data signals, and delivery methods such as conduit, cable tray, or raceway, that
support and protect the cabling investment.
Modern Ethernet networking equipment is designed around the concept that each
device in a building's network has a dedicated media connection to a central
"hub". In a standard hub the LAN bandwidth is shared among all the stations.
With dedicated hubs, also called switched technology, a given cable is allocated
for use by a single device.
This was not always the case. The original design of network systems assumed a
common, shared medium: coaxial cable. Structured cabling systems, while having
drawbacks with regards to absolute transmission performance, show considerable
cost savings to the owner by reducing the costs of moves, changes and additions.
These benefits far outweigh the cost of implementation, making structured
cabling the optimum choice for building wiring.
The industry had been dominated by thousands of proprietors with former
employment experience in telecommunications and electrical contracting. With the
boom in technological advances over the past fifteen years, the convergence of
data medium; text, voice, and video has placed a premium in obtaining such
information, faster, cheaper and now wireless. This paradigm shift in the
functionality of data transmission now mandates a more detailed insight into
computer science, project management and a thorough understanding of a potential
customer's total communications needs.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW (WI-FI)
We believe, in the past two years, Wireless Fidelity, also known as Wi-Fi, has
emerged as the dominant standard for wireless local areas networks, or WLANS
worldwide. A Wi-Fi network can cover an area of typically 100-500 feet with
Internet access hundreds of times faster than a modem connection. We believe
that, unlike other wireless technologies such as CDMA and GSM, Wi-Fi enjoys 100%
global acceptance and that it has become a single networking standard for all
developers, equipment manufacturers, service providers and users.
Hundreds of equipment manufacturers are now flooding the market with millions of
Wi-Fi cards and access points. The single Wi-Fi standard ensures these devices
all interoperate with each other, so, for example, an access point made by
Netgear will communicate with a network card from Linksys.
Hundreds of new companies have begun setting up Wi-Fi access points called "hot
spots" in cafes, hotels, airports, book stores and other public spaces. These
hot spot operators install Wi-Fi access points and either sell high speed
wireless Internet access for a fee or offer it to the public for free.
Hot Spot Operators include Wayport, STSN, Surf and Sip, StayOnline, Pronto,
NetNearU, Deep Blue, Fatport, Air Portal, Ikano, Picopoint, TheCloud and Azure.
In the last year, major wireless carriers have thrown their hat in the ring,
including T-Mobile, which is building hot spots in Starbucks cafes, Borders book
stores, Kinko's stores and airline clubs, AT&T Wireless, British Telecom,
Swisscom, Telecom Italia and Sprint PCS.
Forces outside the industry are also rapidly arming users with Wi-Fi radios.
Consumers also buying Wi-Fi-compatible hardware in their laptops and PDAs for
use in the office or home.
We believe Wi-Fi is over 100 times faster than a standard modem connection.
Wi-Fi is also significantly faster than the wireless services provided by
cellular carriers which typically deliver throughput between 40k and 60k. The
actual speed experienced by hot spot users is determined by the hot spot's
connection to the Internet, which can range from low-end DSL (384k) to one or
more T1s (1.5Mb and up), but this still promises much faster speed than any
other available technology.
We are seeking to exploit the rapid build up of wireless networks by focusing
our marketing efforts on our currently installed base of universities, K-12,
municipalities and Fortune 1000 companies.
In addition, we have increased our ability to take advantage of the rapid
acceptance and deployment of internet-based telephone communications as a result
of our acquisition of Del Mar Systems International, Inc. Del Mar Systems
provides Voice over Internet Protocol, or VoIP, which offers customers the
ability to effect local and long distance phone calls via the internet for flat
monthly rates, in most cases at a considerable cost savings from traditional per
minute charges from the major telecommunications providers. We now have the
ability to provide VoIP installation and deployment services to our customers
through Del Mar Systems.
OUR BUSINESS
A company's communication network is critical in achieving the timely flow of
information. Typically, a company's network expands beyond its existing
headquarters to remote offices and remote users. The number of networking
applications continues to grow and the demand for high-speed connectivity to
move data back and forth is increasing dramatically. Until recently, a company's
only alternative in obtaining high-speed connectivity was to contact the
telephone company and have a high-speed landline service installed so that
connectivity could be achieved between its locations. The issue today is that
these high-speed landlines take too much time to install, are not available in
all locations, do not solve remote application usage and are costly to use on a
monthly basis.
We seek to exploit the growing demand in high-speed connectivity by providing
complete network solutions including best of breed wireless products,
engineering services for which our technicians design the applications required
for the network build out, structured cabling and deployment. We offer the
ability to integrate superior solutions across the vast majority of
communication requirements.
There are multiple products associated with the deployment of a wireless
solution including microwave equipment, free space optical equipment and
specialty components. There are also important services such as site design,
product integration, structured cabling, network security, training and
technical support. The integration of all these products and services is
critical in achieving the desired results for the customer. The specific
products used and services offered vary depending on the connection speed
required and distances between points. We provide specialty communication
systems, Wi-Fi deployment and WLANs to corporations, municipalities and
educational institutions.
We define wireless deployment as the internal and external design and
installation of a wireless solution to support connectivity between two or more
points without the utilization of landline infrastructure. End users turn to us
to design and integrate a wireless solution, as there are many components from
various technology providers. Wireless solutions can offer a user:
- High-speed connectivity;
- Immediate installation;
- Network ownership; and
- Low costs.
We also provide network security, train end users and provide on-going technical
support to insure a successful installation.
SUPPLIERS
While we are predominately a service company, we purchase and resell products
such as networking routers, cable, software and video equipment that are
involved in our project installations. We purchase our products from various
distributors. Should any of these distributors cease operations, our business
would not be adversely affected because these products are readily available
from multiple distributors locally, regionally or nationally.
We have agreements with Vivato, Motorola Inc. and Aruba Wireless Networks that
give us what we believe to be the finest suite of products in the installation
of wireless solutions. Through our Motorola agreement and the use of one of its
flagship wireless products "The Canopy," we have the ability to install point to
point service directly for Wireless Internet Service Providers or proprietors of
WLANs or expanded 'Hot Zones' up to 4 kilometers through our Vivato agreement.
Vivato is a San Francisco-based network infrastructure company and manufacturer
of the industry's first Wi-Fi switches for enterprises and service providers.
Adhering to the IEEE 802.11 standard, Vivato's patent-pending PacketSteering(TM)
technology changes the old rules of Wi-Fi deployment. Vivato Wi-Fi switches
deliver unprecedented range and capacity, with enterprise-class security.
Aruba's family of Wi-Fi switches deliver centralized wireless security and
management of all types of enterprise environments.
SALES AND MARKETING
Our employees market and sell our services through a direct team of five sales
and project management professionals. We are proactive and able to visit
personally with our clients from time to time. We do not employ an outside sales
force.
We also use several methods of mass marketing to advertise our products and
services including direct mailings, and the distribution of brochures which
describe our services. Additionally, we maintain a web site that describes our
services. We believe that these methods of marketing are a key factor in the
securing of new business.
CUSTOMERS
We currently provide our products and services to the markets in K-12 education,
universities, municipalities and Fortune 1000 companies. Some of our current
customers include the University of California - Los Angeles, University of
Southern California, Wells Fargo and Safeway. The University of California - Los
Angeles currently represents approximately 30% of our annual revenue. No other
customer represents more than 10% of our annual revenue.
COMPETITION
The network cabling market is very fragmented and highly competitive. In the
markets where we operate, we experience intense competition from other
independent providers of network solutions. Our competitors include regional,
privately-held companies including Sunglo Communications, Pacific Coast Cabling,
and Netversant. We are aware of only one publicly-traded competitor, WPCS
International Inc. There is no one dominant competitor. We believe that success
in the industry is based on maintenance of product quality, competitive pricing,
delivery efficiency, customer service and satisfaction levels, maintenance of
satisfactory dealer relationships, and the ability to anticipate technological
changes and changes in customer preferences. We believe our competitive
advantage lies in our ability to provide superior customer service while
offering a more diverse line of hard product offering than our competitors.
EMPLOYEES
As of February 9, 2004, we employed 19 full time employees, four are executives,
three are in sales and marketing, eleven are project managers or technicians and
one is in administration. We believe our relations with all of our employees are
good.
ITEM 2 DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
We currently sublease 2,500 sq ft. of office space located in a technology park
at 18 Technology Dr., Suite 140A, Irvine, CA. Our monthly rent is approximately
$2,289 per month, and our lease runs month to month.
ITEM 3 LEGAL PROCEDINGS
In the year ended December 31, 2002, a suit was brought against us and our
former management in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of
San Francisco, by Martin Mast an individual alleging that we made false written
and oral representations to induce the plaintiff to invest in our company and
that such investment occurred despite the plaintiff's request that the funds be
held in a brokerage account maintained by a related entity. A co-defendant Aslam
Shaw an individual in the case also filed a cross-complaint in the action
alleging theories of recovery against us and several other defendants and
alleging fraud, breach of contract, misrepresentation, conversion and securities
fraud against us. On November 21, 2003, we reached a settlement with Martin Mast
for $160,000. We are making payments in installments through April 2004. Through
April 1, 2004 $130,000 has been paid. We had accrued $300,000 in the
accompanying financial statements against any possible outcome.
On April 25, 2003 the Superior Court of the State of California, County of
Orange, entered a judgment in the amount of $46,120 against us and our former
management in favor of Insulectro Corp., a vendor of our former subsidiary,
North Texas Circuit Board, or NTCB. We believe that we were never issued proper
service of process for the complaint. In addition, on August 20, 2002 we sold
NTCB to BC Electronics Inc. Pursuant to terms of the share purchase agreement,
BC Electronics assumes all liabilities of NTCB. In December 2003, we filed a
motion to vacate the judgment for lack of personal service. In February 2004,
the Court ruled in our favor and the judgment was vacated. Although we are the
guarantor on the loan, NTCB is the principal debtor and (i) we will bring action
against NTCB to seek relief or (ii) because partial payment was made by NTCB, it
could affect the legal status of the guarantee, which we believe may absolve us
of liability. In February 2004, the plaintiff re-filed the complaint. Although
we will continue to oppose the action we have begun settlement discussions with
the plaintiff.
On April 29, 2003, Arman Moheban an individual brought a suit against us and our
former management in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of
Los Angeles, alleging breach of contract pursuant to a settlement agreement
dated November 20, 2002. The suit alleges that we are delinquent in our
repayment of a $20,000 promissory note, of which $5,000 has been repaid to date.
Although we plan to vigorously oppose the claim, we plan to begin settlement
discussion with the plaintiff.
ITEM 4 SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
None.

DIVIDEND POLICY
We have not paid any dividends since inception and presently anticipate that all
earnings, if any, will be retained for development of our business. We expect
that no dividends on the shares of common stock will be declared in the
foreseeable future. Any future dividends will be subject to the discretion of
our Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, our future
earnings, operating and financial condition, capital requirements, general
business conditions and other pertinent facts.
RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
In October 2003, we issued a $75,000 convertible debenture to Dutchess Private
Equities Fund, LP. The debenture converts into common stock at the lesser of (i)
75% of the lowest closing bid price during the fifteen trading days prior to the
Conversion Date or (ii) 100% of the average of the closing bid prices for the
twenty trading days immediately preceding the Closing Date of the Transaction.
ITEM 6 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
You should read this section together with our consolidated financial statements
and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties. We generally use words such as "believe," "may," "could," "will,"
"intend," "expect," "anticipate," "plan," and similar expressions to identify
forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our expansion plans.
You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our
actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the
forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks described in
our "Risk Factor" section and elsewhere in this report. Although we believe the
expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, they
relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made, and our
future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements may not meet
these expectations. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking
statements after the date of this document to conform these statements to actual
results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and
the understanding of our results of operations. The impact and any associated
risks related to these policies on our business operations are discussed
throughout this section where such policies affect our reported and expected
financial results. Our preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements
requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of our financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual
results will not differ from those estimates.
Our accounting policies that are the most important to the portrayal of our
financial condition and results, and which require the highest degree of
management judgment relate to revenue recognition, the provision for
uncollectible accounts receivable, property and equipment, advertising and
issuance of shares for service.
Our revenue recognition policies are in compliance with all applicable
accounting regulations, including American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position (SOP) 81-1, Accounting for Performance
of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. Revenues from
installations, cabling and networking contacts are recognized when the contracts
are completed. The completed-contract method is used because the contracts are
short-term in duration or we are unable to make reasonably dependable estimates
of the costs of the contracts. Our revenue recognition policy for sale of
network products is in compliance with Staff accounting bulletin (SAB) 101.
Revenue from the sale of network products is recognized when a formal
arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is
completed and collectibility is reasonably assured.
We estimate the likelihood of customer payment based principally on a customer's
credit history and our general credit experience. To the extent our estimates
differ materially from actual results, the timing and amount of revenues
recognized or bad debt expense recorded may be materially misstated during a
reporting period.
Property and equipment is carried at cost. Depreciation of property and
equipment is provided using the declining balance method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets at five to seven years. Expenditures for maintenance
and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
We expense advertising costs as incurred.
We account for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and services
based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the
equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably
measurable.
GOING CONCERN OPINION
Our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003,
reflect a net loss of $3,434,607. Although these conditions raised substantial
doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern if we do not acquire
sufficient additional funding or alternative sources of capital to meet our
working capital needs, we believe we could continue operating for the next
twelve months without additional capital but would have to curtail our
operations and plans for expansion. Our plan to continue operations in relation
to our going concern opinion is to complete the registration process with the
SEC so we can access the Equity Line of Credit provided by Preston Capital. We
believe proceeds from this offering should enable us to return to profitability.

Net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $1,233,908 compared to
$804,080 for the year ended December 31, 2002 due to increased marketing and
contracts received. We also experienced an increase in higher education
contracts during the period ended December 31, 2003 vs. same period 2002 due to
an increase in target marketing to this sector. Our year to date revenues are
higher than the same period a year ago due to an increase in the total amount of
new contracts received. All of our revenue in the current period is from Network
Installation Corp. Our operations from the subsidiaries disposed off in 2002
have been separately classified in the Statements of Operations.

our Net Loss.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
----------------------------------
As of December 31, 2003, our Current Assets were $556,075 and Current
Liabilities were $2,554,680. Cash and cash equivalents were $667. Our
Stockholder's Deficit at December 31, 2003 was ($2,594,707). We had a net usage

$730,061 and $(34,142) for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2003 and
2002, respectively. We had $303,399 from borrowings in the period ended December
31, 2003 as compared to $0 in the corresponding period last year.
Our obligations include:
- a $3,500 payable based on the purchase agreement of our subsidiary;
- $198,691 in loans from a major shareholder and officer. The amount is
unsecured, due on demand and non interest bearing.
- We defaulted on a note that prohibited certain acquisitions when we

financing institution. The amount outstanding at December 31, 2003,
amounted to $45,500.
- We have notes payable to unrelated parties amounting to $21,781. These
notes are due on demand, bear interest rate of 6% per annum and are

On February 27, 2003, our subsidiary entered into a factoring and security
agreement to sell, transfer and assign certain accounts receivable to Orange
Commercial Credit, or OCC. OCC may at its sole discretion purchase any specific
account. All accounts sold are with recourse on seller. All of the property of
our subsidiary including accounts receivable, inventories, equipment and
promissory notes are collateral under this agreement. Any assets held at the
Corporate level are not collateral under this agreement, however as of February
9, 2004, the amount of assets at the Corporate level is not material. OCC will
advance 80% of the face amount of each account. The difference between the face
amount of each purchased account and advance on the purchased account shall be
reserve and will be released after deductions of discount and charge backs on
the 15th and the last day of each month. OCC charges 1% of gross face value of
purchased receivable for finance charge and 1% for administrative fees with
minimum charge of $750 on each settlement date. As of December 31, 2003, we
factored receivables of approximately $205,929. In connection with the factoring
agreement, we included fees of $16,555 in the period ended December 31, 2003.
On September 17, 2003, our subsidiary entered a factoring agreement with a
related entity for $76,000 face amount. This amount is payable in 30 days and
certain receivables were assigned and delivered. In the event that on the
maturity date, any amounts on the note remain, the holder can exercise its right
to increase the face amount by $10,000 per month that the Note remains unpaid.
In the year ended December 31, 2001, we issued debentures amounting to $720,000,
carrying an interest rate of 6% per annum, due in August 2003. The term of the
debentures were subsequently extended to August 2008. Pursuant to the terms of
the debentures, interest is payable on the date of conversion. The holders are
entitled to, at any time or from time to time, convert the conversion amount
into shares of our common stock at a conversion price for each share of common
stock equal to the lower of (a) 120% of the losing bid price per share on the
closing date, and (b) 80% of the lowest closing bid price per share of our
common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of
conversion. As of December 31, 2003, the outstanding balance of the debentures
amounted to $443,501.
On April 7, 2003, we issued convertible debentures of $75,000 to eFund Capital

prices for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the closing date. The
convertible debentures shall pay 6% cumulative interest, in cash or in shares of
common stock, at our option, at the time of each conversion. The debentures are
payable on April 8, 2008. The convertible debentures are convertible into shares

of the average of the closing bid prices for the 20 trading days immediately
preceding the Closing Date. The convertible debentures are convertible into
shares of our common stock.

RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should
carefully consider the following risk factors, other information included in
this prospectus and information in our periodic reports filed with the SEC. If
any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or
results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, and you may
lose some or all of your investment.
RISKS ABOUT OUR BUSINESS
OUR INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS HAVE ISSUED A GOING CONCERN OPINION.
Our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003,
reflect a net loss of $3,134,607. These conditions raised substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. if we do not acquire
sufficient additional funding or alternative sources of capital to meet our
working capital, we may have to substantially curtail our operations and
business plan.
WE HAVE SUBSTANTIAL INDEBTEDNESS WHICH MAY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO MAINTAIN OR
GROW OUR OPERATIONS.
We currently have $2,554,680 in current liabilities. As a result of our level of
debt and the terms of our debt instruments:
- our vulnerability to adverse general economic conditions is heightened; -
we will be required to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from
operations to repayment of debt, limiting the availability of cash for
other purposes;
- we are and will continue to be limited by financial and other restrictive
covenants in our ability to borrow additional funds, consummate asset
sales, enter into transactions with affiliates or conduct mergers and
acquisitions;
- our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business
and industry will be limited; and - our ability to obtain additional
financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures,
acquisitions, general corporate purposes or other purposes may be impaired.
Our ability to pay principal and interest on our indebtedness and to satisfy our
other debt obligations will partly depend upon our future operating performance,
which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business
and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. If we are unable to
service our indebtedness, we will be forced to take actions such as reducing or
delaying capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing our
indebtedness, or seeking additional equity capital. We may not be able to affect
any of these remedies on satisfactory terms, or at all.
OUR OPERATING RESULTS WILL FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE,
WHICH MAY AFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE.
Our quarterly results of operations have varied in the past and are likely to
continue to vary significantly from quarter to quarter. Our operating expenses
are based on expected future revenues and are relatively fixed in the short
term. If our revenues are lower than expected, our results of operations could
be adversely affected. Additionally, we are unable to forecast our future
revenues with certainty because our business plan contemplates the acquisition
of new enterprises. Many factors can cause our financial results to fluctuate,
some of which are outside of our control. Quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our
operating results may not be meaningful and you should not rely upon them as an
indication of our future performance. In addition, during certain future periods
our operating results likely will fall below the expectations of public market
analysts and investors. In this event, the market price of our common stock
likely would decline.
WE NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO GROW OUR BUSINESS AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO FIND
SUCH CAPITAL ON ACCEPTABLE TERMS.
Our business plan contemplates the acquisition of new enterprises and the
proceeds from our existing financing arrangements may not be sufficient to fully
implement our business plan. Additionally, we may not be able to generate
sufficient revenues from our existing operations to fund our capital
requirements. Accordingly, we may require additional funds to enable us to
operate profitably. Such financing may not be available on terms acceptable to
us. We currently have no bank borrowings or credit facilities, and we may not be
able to arrange any such debt financing. Additionally, we may not be able to
successfully consummate additional offerings of stock or other securities in
order to meet our future capital requirements. If we cannot raise additional
capital through issuing stock or bank borrowings, we may not be able to grow our
business.
OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY INCLUDES IDENTIFYING NEW BUSINESSES TO ACQUIRE, AND IF WE
CAN NOT INTEGRATE ACQUISITIONS INTO OUR COMPANY SUCCESSFULLY, WE MAY NOT BECOME
PROFITABLE.
Our success partially depends upon our ability to identify and acquire
undervalued businesses. Although we believe that there are companies available
for potential acquisition that are undervalued and might offer attractive
business opportunities, we may not be able to make any acquisitions, and if we
do make acquisitions, they may not be profitable.
WE DEPEND ON OUR KEY PERSONNEL AND IF THOSE PERSONNEL LEAVE THE COMPANY, OUR
BUSINESS MAY BE HARMED.
At this time, we are almost totally dependent upon Michael Cummings as our only
operating officer and on the directors of Network Installation Corporation, our
only business asset that is producing significant revenues. While we have an
employment agreement with Mr. Cummings, it does not obligate him to remain as
our Chief Executive Officer. We do not maintain insurance on the lives of our
officers, directors or key employees. The loss of their services would have a
material adverse effect on our business. We elect our directors each year and
while we expect to reelect our directors currently on the Board, our directors
are not obligated to continue in their positions.
SOME OF OUR POTENTIAL FUTURE GROWTH DEPENDS ON INCREASING CUSTOMER ACCEPTANCE OF
WIRELESS NETWORKS, AND TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH ACCEPTANCE FAILS TO INCREASE, WE
MAY NOT GROW OUR BUSINESS.
While the majority of our revenues are currently derived from the installation
of cable systems, we believe that improving wireless technology will eventually
make wireless systems an acceptable alternative to many of our potential
customers. We have begun to enter the wireless marketplace and believe this
technology could lead to future growth for our company. The wireless industry
has historically experienced a dramatic rate of growth both in the United States
and internationally. If the rate of growth should slow down and end users
continue to reduce their capital investments in wireless infrastructure or fail
to expand their networks, we may not be able to expand our business.
OUR INDUSTRY HAS RAPIDLY CHANGING TECHNOLOGY AND, IF WE DO NOT STAY CURRENT, WE
MAY LOSE CUSTOMERS AND OUR BUSINESS WILL BE HARMED.
The network installation industry and related technology business involve a
broad range of rapidly changing technologies. Our technologies may not remain
competitive over time, and others may develop technologies that are superior to
ours which may render our products non-competitive. Our business may depend on
trade secrets, know-how, continuing innovations and licensing opportunities to
develop and maintain our competitive position. Others may independently develop
equivalent proprietary information or otherwise gain access to or disclose our
information. Our confidentiality agreements on which we rely may not provide
meaningful protection of any trade secrets on which we may depend for success,
or provide adequate remedies in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure of
confidential information or prevent our trade secrets from otherwise becoming
known to or independently discovered by our competitors.
ITEM 7 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
----------------------------
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors Network Installation Corp.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Network
Installation Corp. (formerly, Flexxtech Corporation), a Nevada Corporation and
subsidiary, as of December 31, 2003 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for each of the two years in
the period ended December 31, 2003. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Network Installation
Corporation and subsidiary as of December 31, 2003 and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended
December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using the generally
accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates
the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of
business. The Company has accumulated deficit of $5,466,840 including net losses
of $3,434,607 and $109,806 for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002,
respectively. These factors as discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements
raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in
Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NETWORK INSTALLATION CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SEGMENTS
Network Installation Corp (NIC) was incorporated on July 18, 1997, under the
laws of the State of California. NIC is a full service computer cabling,
networking and telecommunications integrator contractor, providing networks from
stem to stem in house. NIC participates in the worldwide network infrastructure
market to end users, structured cabling market and the telephony services. NIC
and Flexxtech are together referred as "the Company".
Pursuant to a purchase agreement on May 23, 2003, Flexxtech Corporation
("Flexxtech") acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of (NIC).
The purchase price consisted of $50,000 cash, 7,382,000 shares of Flexxtech's
common stock and five year option to purchase an additional 618,000 shares of
Flexxtech stock if NIC's total revenue exceeds $450,000 for the period beginning
on June 1, 2003 and ending August 31. The option is exercisable at a price equal
to the closing bid price of the stock on August 31, 2003.
According to the terms of the share exchange agreement, control of the combined
companies (the "Company") passed to the former shareholders of NIC. This type of
share exchange has been treated as a capital transaction accompanied by
recapitalization of NIC in substance, rather than a business combination, and is
deemed a "reverse acquisition" for accounting purposes since the former owners
of NIC controlled majority of the total common shares outstanding immediately
following the acquisition. No pro forma financial statements are being presented
as Flexxtech had no significant asset prior to the acquisition.
Flexxtech Corporation ("Flexxtech") was organized on March 24, 1998, under the
laws of the State of Nevada, as Color Strategies. On December 20, 1999,
Flexxtech changed its name to Infinite Technology Corporation. Flexxtech changed
its name to Flexxtech Corporation in April 2000.
A certificate of amendment was filed on July 10, 2003 to change the parent
company's name from Flexxtech Corporation to Network Installation Corp.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Network
Installation Corp., formerly Flexxtech Corporation (legal acquirer, the
"Parent"), and its 100% owned subsidiary, Network Installation Corporation. All
significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. The historical results for the year ended December 31, 2003
include the accounts of NIC for the full year and Flexxtech from the acquisition
date through December 31, 2003, while the historical results for the year ended
December 31, 2002 include NIC only.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or
less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash
equivalents.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts
receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and
analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit
worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to
evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a
specific identification basis. Allowance for doubtful debts amounted to $79,309
as at December 31, 2003.
WORK IN-PROGRESS
Work in-progress represents cost incurred on uncompleted contracts. Cost
consists of labor and direct costs incurred on the contract. Work in progress at
December 31, 2003 amounted to $200,000.
PROPERTY & EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and
repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments
are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed
of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the
respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations.
Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line
method for substantially all assets with estimated lives of five to seven years.
LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets" ("SFAS 144"), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the
impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed Of," and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No.
30, "Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a
Business." The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived
assets to be held and used in accordance with SFAS 144. SFAS 144 requires
impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when
indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated
to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amounts. In
that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying
amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on
long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except
that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal. Based on its
review, the Company believes that, as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, there were
no significant impairments of its long-lived assets.
REVENUE RECOGNITION & DEFERRED REVENUE
The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with all applicable
accounting regulations, including American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position (SOP) 81-1, Accounting for Performance
of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. Revenues from
installations, cabling and networking contacts are recognized when the contracts
are completed (Completed-Contract Method). The completed-contract method is used
because the contracts are short-term in duration or the Company is unable to
make reasonably dependable estimates of the costs of the contracts.
Under the Completed-Contract Method, revenues and expenses are recognized when
services have been performed and the projects have been completed. For projects,
which have been completed but not yet billed to customers, revenue is recognized
based on management's estimates of the amounts to be realized. When such
projects are billed, any differences between the initial estimates and the
actual amounts billed are recorded as increases or decreases to revenue.
Expenses are recognized in the period in which the corresponding liability is
incurred. Deferred revenue represents revenue that has been received or is
receivable before it is earned, i.e., before the related services are performed.
Deferred revenue amounted to $280,924 at December 31, 2003.
The Company's revenue recognition policy for sale of network products is in
compliance with Staff accounting bulletin (SAB) 104. Revenue from the sale of
network products is recognized when a formal arrangement exists, the price is
fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed and collectibility is
reasonably assured. Generally, the Company extends credit to its customers and
does not require collateral. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of
its customers and historic credit losses have been within management's
expectations.
ADVERTISING
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses for the
year ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 were insignificant.
ISSUANCE OF SHARES FOR SERVICE
The Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and
services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of
the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably
measurable.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation". SFAS No. 123 prescribes accounting and reporting standards for
all stock-based compensation plans, including employee stock options, restricted
stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights. SFAS No. 123
requires compensation expense to be recorded (i) using the new fair value method
or (ii) using the existing accounting rules prescribed by Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for stock issued to employees" (APB 25) and
related interpretations with proforma disclosure of what net income and earnings
per share would have been had the Company adopted the new fair value method. The
Company uses the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB 25 and has opted for
the disclosure provisions of SFAS No.123.
INCOME TAXES
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences
between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities that
will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted laws
and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to
affect taxable income (loss). Valuation allowance is established when necessary
to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE
Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with the Statement of financial
accounting standards No. 128 (SFAS No. 128), "Earnings per share". SFAS No. 128
superseded Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.15 (APB 15). Net loss per
share for all periods presented has been restated to reflect the adoption of
SFAS No. 128. Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is based on the
assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted
or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under
this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning
of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained
thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during
the period.
SEGMENT REPORTING
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 ("SFAS 131"), "Disclosure
About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" requires use of the
"management approach" model for segment reporting. The management approach model
is based on the way a company's management organizes segments within the company
for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments
are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management
structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. SFAS
131 has no effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements as
substantially all of the Company's operations are conducted in one industry
segment.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Statement of financial accounting standard No. 107, Disclosures about fair value
of financial instruments, requires that the Company disclose estimated fair
values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the statements
of financial position for current assets and current liabilities qualifying as
financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
VULNERABILITY DUE TO SUPPLIER CONCENTRATIONS - The Company had three major
sources for the supply of materials and one major source for supply of
subcontracted labor in 2003. The Company had a major source for the supply of
materials in 2002. The percentages of purchases from this source were 64% and
94% of total purchases in the year ended December 31, 2003 and 2002,
respectively. Total outstanding balances due to these suppliers as of December
31, 2003 and 2002 were $222,339 and $84,452, respectively. The effect of the
loss of any of these sources or a disruption in their business will depend
primarily upon the length of time necessary to find a suitable alternative
source and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of
operations.
VULNERABILITY DUE TO CUSTOMER CONCENTRATIONS - Total sales to two major
customers in the year ended December 31, 2003 amounted to approximately $692,535
and to three major customers in the year ended December 31, 2002 amounted to
$428,000. There was receivable balance of $58,338 from these customers as of
December 31, 2003 and $-0- as of December 31, 2002.
RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS
On April 30, 2003, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 149 ("SFAS 149"),
"Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities".
FAS 149 amends and clarifies the accounting guidance on (1) derivative
instruments (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts) and (2) hedging activities that fall within the scope of FASB
Statement No. 133 ("SFAS 133"), Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities. SFAS 149 also amends certain other existing pronouncements,
which will result in more consistent reporting of contracts that are derivatives
in their entirety or that contain embedded derivatives that warrant separate
accounting. SFAS 149 is effective (1) for contracts entered into or modified
after June 30, 2003, with certain exceptions, and (2) for hedging relationships
designated after June 30, 2003. The guidance is to be applied prospectively. The
adoption of SFAS No. 149 does not have a material impact on the Company's
financial position or results of operations or cash flows.
On May 15 2003, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 150 ("SFAS 150"), Accounting
for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity. SFAS 150 changes the accounting for certain financial instruments that,
under previous guidance, could be classified as equity or "mezzanine" equity, by
now requiring those instruments to be classified as liabilities (or assets in
some circumstances) in the statement of financial position. Further, SFAS 150
requires disclosure regarding the terms of those instruments and settlement
alternatives. SFAS 150 affects an entity's classification of the following
freestanding instruments: a) Mandatorily redeemable instruments b) Financial
instruments to repurchase an entity's own equity instruments c) Financial
instruments embodying obligations that the issuer must or could choose to settle
by issuing a variable number of its shares or other equity instruments based
solely on (i) a fixed monetary amount known at inception or (ii) something other
than changes in its own equity instruments d) SFAS 150 does not apply to
features embedded in a financial instrument that is not a derivative in its
entirety. The guidance in SFAS 150 is generally effective for all financial
instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and is otherwise
effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15,
2003. For private companies, mandatorily redeemable financial instruments are
subject to the provisions of SFAS 150 for the fiscal period beginning after
December 15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 does not have a material impact
on the Company's financial position or results of operations or cash flows.
In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a
revised Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities"
(FIN 46R). FIN 46R addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable
interest entities and significantly changes the consolidation application of
consolidation policies to variable interest entities and, thus improves
comparability between enterprises engaged in similar activities when those
activities are conducted through variable interest entities. The Company does
not hold any variable interest entities.
3. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the
Company as a going concern. However, the Company has accumulated deficit of
$5,466,840 including net losses of $3,434,607 and $109,806 for the years ended
December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The continuing losses have adversely
affected the liquidity of the Company. The Company faces continuing significant
business risks, including but not limited to, its ability to maintain vendor and
supplier relationships by making timely payments when due.
In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a
major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance
sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is
dependent upon the Company's ability to raise additional capital, obtain
financing and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do
not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might
be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management has taken the following steps to revise its operating and financial
requirements, which it believes are sufficient to provide the Company with the
ability to continue as a going concern. Management devoted considerable effort
during the year ended December 31, 2003, towards obtaining additional equity
financing through various private placements and evaluation of its distribution
and marketing methods.

6. NOTE PAYABLE
The Company has an unsecured note of $47,500, guaranteed by the officer and
shareholder of the Company, bearing an interest rate of prime plus 3.25%. The
note is payable through a revolving line of credit, which commenced on November
6, 2001, the date of the note, and expires three years following the note date.
The Company must pay a total of 36 payments of interest only on the disbursed
balance beginning one month from the note date and every month thereafter. The
term period will commence upon the termination of the revolving line of credit
period. During the term period, the Company must pay principal and interest
payments in equal installment sufficient to fully amortize the principal balance
outstanding, beginning one month from the commencement of the term period. All
remaining principal and accrued interest is due and payable 7 years from the
date of the note.
As a result of acquisition of NIC by the Company, NIC was in default on this
note, since the note prohibited a change of ownership over 25% of NIC's common
stock outstanding. The entire principal amount became due upon default and the
revolving line of credit is no longer available to NIC. The Company is in the
process of making payment arrangement with the financing institution. The amount
outstanding at December 31, 2003, amounted to $45,500.
The interests on this note were $3,728 and $4,375 for the year ended December

year 2022. The availability of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards
are subject to limitation if there is a 50% or more positive change in the
ownership of the Company's stock. The provision for income taxes consists of the
state minimum tax imposed on corporations.
Temporary differences which give rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities at
December 31, 2003 comprised mainly of net operating loss carryforward. The gross
deferred tax asset balance as of December 31, 2003 was approximately $1,380,000.
A 100% valuation allowance has been recorded for the deferred tax assets due to
the uncertainty of its realization.

9. COMMITMENT & LITIGATION
Lease:
The Company did not have a lease agreement during the year ended December 31,
2002. The Company paid the usage charge each month. On February 5, 2003, the
Company entered into short term rental agreement for 90 days and month to month
thereafter. The monthly rental is $2,289.
The rent expenses were $27,452 and $ 12,323 for the year ended December 31, 2003
and 2002, respectively.
Litigation:
In the year ended December 31, 2002, a suit was brought against the Company and
its former management in the Superior Court of the State of California, County
of San Francisco, by an individual alleging that the Company made false written
and oral representations to induce the plaintiff to invest in the Company and
that such investment occurred despite the plaintiff's request that the funds be
held in a brokerage account maintained by a related entity. A co-defendant, an
individual in the case also filed a cross-complaint in the action alleging
theories of recovery against the Company and several other defendants and
alleging fraud, breach of contract, misrepresentation, conversion and securities
fraud against the Company. On November 21, 2003, the Company reached a
settlement with the plaintiffs for $160,000. The Company is making payments in
installments through April 2004. The Company has accrued $300,000 in the
accompanying financial statements against any possible outcome.
On April 25, 2003 the Superior Court of the State of California, County of
Orange, entered a judgment in the amount of $46,120 against the Company and its
former management in favor of a vendor of the Company's former subsidiary, North
Texas Circuit Board, or NTCB. On August 20, 2002 the Company sold NTCB to BC
Electronics Inc. Pursuant to terms of the share purchase agreement, BC
Electronics assumed all liabilities of NTCB. In December 2003 the Company filed
a motion to vacate the judgment for lack of personal service. In February 2004,
the Court ruled in favor of the Company and the judgment was vacated. Although
the Company was the guarantor on the loan, NTCB is the principal debtor and (i)
the Company will bring action against NTCB to seek relief or (ii) because
partial payment was made by NTCB, it could affect the legal status of the
guarantee, which the Company believes may absolve it of liability. In February
2004, the plaintiff refiled the complaint. Although the Company will continue to
oppose the action the Company and its current management have begun settlement
discussions with the plaintiff.
On April 29, 2003 a suit was brought against the Company by an investor,
alleging breach of contract pursuant to a settlement agreement executed between
the Company and investor dated November 20, 2002. The suit alleges that the
Company is delinquent in its repayment of a $20,000 promissory note, of which
$5,000 has been repaid to date. Although management of the Company intends to
oppose the claims, the Company's current management plans to begin settlement
discussion with the plaintiff.
The Company may be involved in litigation, negotiation and settlement matters
that may occur in the day-to-day operations of the Company and its subsidiary.
Management does not believe implication of these litigations will have any other
material impact on the Company's financial statements.
10. DUE TO FACTOR
On February 27, 2003, NIC entered into a factoring and security agreement to
sell, transfer and assign certain accounts receivable to Orange Commercial
Credit (OCC). OCC may on its sole discretion purchase any specific account. All
accounts sold are with recourse on seller. All of the Company's property of NIC
including accounts receivable, inventories, equipment and promissory notes are
collateral under this agreement. OCC will advance 80% of the face amount of each
account. The difference between the face amount of each purchased account and
advance on the purchased account shall be reserve and will be released after
deductions of discount and charge backs on the 15th and the last day of each
month. OCC charges 1% of gross face value of purchased receivable for finance
charge and 1% for administrative fees with minimum charge of $750 on each
settlement date. As of December 31, 2003, the Company factored receivables of
approximately $205,929. In connection with the factoring agreement, the Company
included fees of $16,555 in the period ended December 31, 2003. Due to factor
amounted to $14,056 as of December 31, 2003.

issue a five year option to purchase an additional 618,000 shares of our common
stock to Mr. Cummings if Network's total revenue exceeds $450,000 for the period
beginning on June 1, 2003 and ending August 31, 2003. Network's total revenues
exceeded $450,000 for the period beginning June 1, 2003 and ending August 31,
2003. The options are exercisable at a price equal to the closing bid price of
our common stock on August 29, 2003 which was $2.95. As of January 15, 2004, Mr.
Cummings has not exercised the options. At the time of the acquisition there
were no material relationships between us and Mr. Cummings. As a result of the
acquisition, Mr. Cummings replaced Mr. Novielli as Chief Executive Officer and
became our director. Mr. Novielli remained as Chairman of the Board of
Directors. This transaction is no less favorable than if we had entered into it

The Board of Directors Pre-approval Policy and Procedures
We do not have a separate Audit Committee. Our full Board of Directors performs
the functions of an Audit Committee. During fiscal year 2003, the Board of
Directors adopted policies and procedures for the pre-approval of audit and
non-audit services for the purpose of maintaining the independence of our
independent auditors. We may not engage our independent auditors to render any
audit or non-audit service unless either the service is approved in advance by
the Board of Directors or the engagement to render the service is entered into
pursuant to the Board of Director's pre-approval policies and procedures. On an
annual basis, the Board of Directors may pre-approve services that are expected
to be provided to us by the independent auditors during the following 12 months.
At the time such pre-approval is granted, the Board of Directors must (1)
identify the particular pre-approved services in a sufficient level of detail so
that management will not be called upon to make judgment as to whether a
proposed service fits within the pre-approved services and (2) establish a
monetary limit with respect to each particular pre-approved service, which limit
may not be exceeded without obtaining further pre-approval under the policy.
The Board has considered whether the provision of the services described above
under the caption "All Other Fees" is compatible with maintaining Kabani &
Company, Inc.'s independence.
