PART I

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THIS SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS

Item 1.          Plan Information.*

Item 2.          Registrant Information and Employee Plan Annual Information.*

*Information required by Part 1 to be contained in the Section 10(a) prospectus is omitted from the registration statement in accordance with Rule 428 under the Securities Act of 1933.

Purposes:

The Common Stock will be issued by the Company pursuant to two consulting agreements entered into between two Consultants and the Company and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors"). The agreement is intended to provide a method whereby the Company may be stimulated by the personal involvement of the Consultants in the Company's business thereby advancing the interests of the Company, and all of its shareholders.

Common Stock:

The Board has authorized the issuance of up to 550,000 shares of the Common Stock to the Consultants upon effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

2


Consultants:

The Consultants have agreed to provide their expertise and advice to the Company on a non-exclusive basis for the purpose of generally representing the Company with respect to certain financial and business development consulting.

No Restrictions on Transfer

Upon the shares becoming earned pursuant to the terms of Consultants’ engagement agreements, the Consultants will become the record and beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock upon issuance and delivery and is entitled to all of the rights of ownership, including the right to vote any shares awarded and to receive ordinary cash dividends on the Common Stock.

Tax Treatment to the Consultants

The Common Stock is not qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Consultants, therefore, will be deemed for federal income tax purposes to recognize ordinary income during the taxable year in which the first of the following events occurs: (a) the shares become freely transferable, or (b) the shares cease to be subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. Accordingly, the Consultants will receive compensation taxable at ordinary rates equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of receipt since there will be no substantial risk of forfeiture or other restrictions on transfer. If, however, the Consultants receives shares of common stock pursuant to the exercises of an option or options at an exercise price below the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise, the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the stock on the date of exercise will be deemed ordinary income for federal tax purposes. The Consultants are urged to consult his tax advisor on this matter. Further, if any recipient is an "affiliate", Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act is applicable and will affect the issue of taxation.

Tax Treatment to the Company

The amount of income recognized by any recipient hereunder in accordance with the foregoing discussion will be an expense deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes in the taxable year of the Company during which the recipient recognizes income.

Restrictions of Resales

In the event that an affiliate of the Company acquires shares of Common Stock hereunder, the affiliate will be subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Further, in the event that any affiliate acquiring shares hereunder has sold or sells any shares of Common Stock in the six months preceding or following the receipt of shares hereunder, any so called "profit", as computed under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, would be required to be disgorged from the recipient to the Company. Services rendered have been recognized as valid consideration for the "purchase" of shares in connection with the "profit" computation under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. The Company has agreed that for the purpose of any "profit" computation under 16(b) the price paid for the Common Stock issued to affiliates is equal to the value of services rendered. Shares of Common Stock acquired hereunder by persons other than affiliates are not subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act.

Item 2. Registrant Information and Employee Plan Annual Information

A copy of any document or part hereof incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement but not delivered with this Prospectus or any document required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 428(b) under the Securities Act will be furnished without charge upon written or oral request. Requests should be addressed to: 1103-11871 Horseshoe Way, Richmond, B.C. V7A 5H5 Canada.
