You should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the financial information and related notes, before making an investment decision. Business. In February 2001 we entered into an agreement with KeyCom, Inc. which developed, and now operates under the trade name XTRAN, an electronic system for transferring funds from one location to another. We intend to initiate funds transfers from a Web site we are developing, as an agent of KeyCom, using its XTRAN system. Customers will be able to initiate a transfer of funds from our Web site to any XTRAN payout location. We also intend to obtain additional remittance locations for KeyCom for which we will receive a fee from KeyCom. A remittance location is any retail store or business that is authorized to accept consumer funds for transfer by the sender. A payout location is any retail store or business that is authorized to pay out transferred funds to the recipient. We are a development stage enterprise and have not commenced operations or generated any revenue. Our offices are located at 26 West Dry Creek Circle, Suite 600, Littleton, Colorado 80120, and our telephone number is (303) 794-9450. Our Web site address will be www.xtran123.com. We do not expect the Web site to be operational until the third quarter of 2001. The Offering. We are offering a minimum of 150,000 shares and a maximum of 500,000 shares on a self-underwritten basis directly to the public solely through our officers and directors who will not receive any compensation for sales of the common stock. All subscriber funds will be held in escrow until at least 150,000 shares are sold. If 150,000 shares are not sold by us within 90 days from the date of this prospectus, unless extended by us for up to 60 additional days, we will return subscriber funds without interest or deduction. Common stock offered by us: 500,000 shares of common stock. Common stock outstanding prior to offering: 1,350,000 shares of common stock. Common stock outstanding after the offering: 1,850,000 shares of common stock. Use of proceeds: Development of our Web site, establishment of remittance marketing, repayment of loans from officers and working capital. Proposed Bulletin Board symbol: "INET" Our common stock outstanding does not include up to 125,000 shares issuable upon exercise of stock options under our 2001 Stock Option Plan. 3 Forward-Looking Statements. This prospectus includes forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us which are discussed in the Risk Factors section below as well as throughout this prospectus. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this prospectus might not occur. SUMMARY FINANCIAL DATA The following summary of our financial data should be read in conjunction with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and our audited financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. Statement of Operations Data: Period from inception (January 9, 2001) to January 31, 2001 ---------------- Total costs and expenses $ 0 Net (loss) $ 0 Net (loss) per share $ 0 Weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding 1,350,000 Balance Sheet Data: At January 31, 2001 ------------------- Cash and cash equivalents $ 3,334 Total assets $30,000 Total liabilities $ 0 Stockholders' equity $30,000 4 RISK FACTORS The shares of common stock offered by this prospectus involve a high degree of risk and represent a highly speculative investment. You should not purchase these shares if you cannot afford the loss of your entire investment. In addition to the other information contained in this prospectus, you should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating our company, our business prospects and an investment in our shares of common stock. Should KeyCom breach our master agency agreement or cease its funds transfer business, we would be unable to remain in the funds transfer business. We have an exclusive agreement with KeyCom to act as its agent in order to market its electronic funds transfer system through the Internet and a non-exclusive right to be compensated for merchant remittance locations we obtain for KeyCom. Should KeyCom fail to honor its agreement with us or cease its electronic funds transfer business, we would be unable to continue in that business. Moreover, we can only market our Web based transfers of funds to destinations in which KeyCom has obtained payout locations. Accordingly, should KeyCom fail to obtain a significant number of payout locations, our business will be extremely limited. We have received a going concern opinion from our auditors indicating that we may be unable to remain in business. In their audit report dated February 9, 2001 our auditors indicated that there was substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern and that our ability to continue as a going concern was dependent upon our obtaining additional financing for our operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to do so. We may be unable to complete the development of our funds transfer Web site in which event we will be unable to transfer funds over the Internet. Our funds transfer Web Site is not yet operational and we can give no assurance that it will become operational in the future. If we cannot cause our Web site to become operational we will be unable to arrange for the transfer of funds over the Internet. We do not know if consumers will transfer funds over the Internet, which makes investing in our business very risky. Our business model calls for using the Internet to arrange for funds transfers and we can give no assurance that consumers will find this service attractive compared to current funds transfer services. Our consumer base will be further limited because our Web site requires users to speak English and to have a bank credit card. Even if consumers accept our funds transfer arrangements we cannot assure that the costs of marketing to funds transfer consumers will allow us to earn a profit. 5 We may suffer losses as a result of funds transfers. We do not extend credit in connection with our Web based funds transfers. Rather, KeyCom charges the credit card of the person initiating the funds transfer. Accordingly, we face potential losses from initiators of funds transfers who have obtained a credit card by fraud or who refuse to pay the charge on their credit card or seek to charge-back the amount to us through their credit card company. A significant number of fraudulent or charge-back transactions would adversely affect our cash flow and results of operations. If our Internet-based funds transfers are intercepted we could be liable to our customers. If third parties breach our Internet security precautions, these third parties may divert the transferred funds to their own use. In this event, KeyCom and we might be liable to the originator or anticipated recipient of the funds transfer. Shares of our common stock which are eligible for sale by our stockholders may decrease the price of our common stock. Upon completion of the offering, we will have 1,850,000 shares outstanding comprised of 500,000 shares offered to investors by this prospectus and 1,350,000 restricted shares which will be eligible for resale in January 2002. If our stockholders or any other holders sell substantial amounts of our common stock, the market price of our common stock could decrease. You will be unable to sell our common stock unless a trading market develops. Our common stock is not currently eligible for trading on any stock exchange and there can be no assurance that our common stock will be listed on any stock exchange in the future. We intend to apply for listing on the Nasdaq Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board Trading System pursuant to Rule 15c2-11 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, but there can be no assurance we will obtain a listing. The Bulletin Board tends to be highly illiquid, in part because there is no national quotation system by which potential investors can track the market price of shares except through information received or generated by a limited number of broker- dealers that make a market in particular stocks. There is also a greater chance of market volatility for securities that trade on the Bulletin Board as opposed to a national exchange or quotation system. It will be harder for you to sell our common stock because it is likely to be classified as "penny stock." Trading in our common stock, if any, is expected to be limited because our common stock is likely to fall under the definition of "penny stock" and broker-dealers will be required to provide their customers with disclosure documents prior to allowing them to participate in transactions involving our common stock. These disclosure requirements are burdensome to broker-dealers and may discourage them from allowing their customers to participate in transactions involving our common stock. 6 USE OF PROCEEDS The net proceeds of the offering after payment of $110,000 of expenses will be $40,000 if the minimum 150,000 shares are sold, and $390,000 if all 500,000 shares are sold. In addition, we will have available to us $65,000 which represents prepayments already made by us on our $110,000 of total expenses. We expect to use the net proceeds, which totals $105,000 and $455,000 of proceeds after adding back the $65,000 of prepaid expenses, over a six-month period in the following order of priority: Purpose Minimum Maximum - ------- ------- ------- Development of our Web site $ 45,000 $ 45,000 Establish remittance locations $ 15,000 $200,000 Marketing expenses $ 5,000 $ 80,000 Repayment of loans from officers $ 35,000 $ 35,000 Working capital $ 5,000 $ 95,000 -------- ------- TOTALS $105,000 $455,000 ======== ======== In March 2001 we borrowed $35,000 from our two executive officers which we used to prepay $35,000 of our offering expenses. The loan is evidenced by a promissory note bearing interest at 12% per annum and is due the sooner of the closing of the offering or June 2002. Working capital will be used to cover our general and administrative expenses such as employee compensation, travel and office equipment leases. Proceeds not immediately needed will be invested in bank certificates of deposit, treasury bills, insured bank deposits or similar investments. 7 DILUTION At January 31, 2001, the net tangible book value of our outstanding shares of common stock was $3,334, or $0 per share. "Net tangible book value" per share represents the total amount of our tangible assets, less the amount of our liabilities, divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding. Without taking into account any changes in net tangible book value after January 31, 2001, other than to give effect to the sale of all 500,000 shares of common stock offered at the public offering price of $1.00 per share, less estimated costs of the offering, our net tangible book value at January 31, 2001, would have been $420,000, or approximately $.23, per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $.23 per share of common stock to our existing stockholders, and an immediate dilution of $.77 per share to new investors at January 31, 2001. "Dilution" per share represents the difference between the price to be paid by the new stockholders and the net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after this offering. The following table illustrates this per share dilution. January 31, 2001 ---------------- Initial public offering price per share: $1.00 Net tangible book value per share before the offering: 0 Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to new investors purchasing in the offering: $.23 Net tangible book value per share after the offering: $.23 Dilution per share to new investors: $.77 Dilution as a percentage of the per share purchase price: 77% The following table sets forth the number of shares of common stock purchased, assuming all 500,000 shares are sold, the total consideration paid, before the deduction of offering expenses, and the average price per share paid by our existing stockholders as of January 31, 2001, and new investors purchasing the shares of common stock offered:
Shares Purchased Total Consideration ---------------- ------------------- Average Price Number Percentage Amount Percentage Per Share ------ ---------- ------ ---------- --------- New investors 500,000 27% $500,000 94% $1.00 Existing stockholders 1,350,000 73% $ 30,000 6% $ .02 --------- ---- -------- -- Totals: 1,850,000 100% $530,000 100% ========= ==== ======== ==== 8
CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth our capitalization as of January 31, 2001, after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses. January 31, 2001 ---------------- Long-term liabilities $ 0 Common Stock, $.001 par value, 50,000,000 shares authorized, 1,350,000 shares outstanding, 1,850,000 shares outstanding, as adjusted $ 1,350 Preferred stock, $.001 par value, 5,000,000 shares authorized, no shares issued $ 0 Additional paid-in-capital $28,650 Accumulated deficit $ 0 Total stockholders' equity $30,000 ------- Total capitalization $30,000 ======= 9 SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA The selected financial data set forth below should be read in conjunction with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and our audited financial statement and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. Statement of Operations data: Period from January 9, 2001 (date of inception) through January 31, 2001 ---------------- Total costs and expenses $ 0 Operating loss $ 0 Net loss $ 0 === Net loss per share $ 0 === Weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding 1,350,000 ========= Balance Sheet data: As of January 31, 2001 ---------------- Cash and cash equivalents $ 3,334 Total assets $30,000 Total liabilities $ 0 Stockholders' equity $30,000 10 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. Results of Operations. Period from inception (January 9, 2001) to January 31, 2001. We commenced operations on January 9, 2001. From January 9, 2001 through January 31, 2001, we reported neither revenue nor expense. Subsequent to January 31, 2001, we incurred expenses in connection with entering into our agreement with KeyCom and preparing this prospectus. All of our expenses were paid in cash. Plan of Operations. The net proceeds of the offering are expected to satisfy our operating expenses for six months following the offering. We expect to use the proceeds to complete the development of our Web site, establish remittance locations, provide us with marketing funds and repay $35,000 of loans from our two stockholders. We do not have plans to raise additional funds but may seek additional funds if necessary to meet our cash needs, although we can give no assurance that we will be able to do so. We do not intend to conduct research and development beyond completing our Web site and we have no commitments to purchase plants or equipment or add employees. We will focus our limited cash resources on completing our Web site in order to begin soliciting fees for funds transfers and obtaining remittance locations for XTRAN transactions, which will earn us location fees and commissions on funds transfers originating from these locations. If only the minimum proceeds are raised, we will focus first on completing our Web site as we will only have a small amount of funds available to establish remittance locations and to conduct marketing. Accordingly, any revenue we might earn from establishing remittance locations or conducting marketing to improve our Web site traffic could be further limited by our cash resources. We expect to complete the development of our Web site for funds transfer by the third quarter of 2001. Because we have limited funds, we intend to direct our initial marketing efforts to Internet users who are expatriates of countries served by XTRAN and who live in concentrated geographical locations where marketing is expected to be more cost effective. An example of this approach is our expected emphasis upon expatriates of Jamaica living in New York and Florida and expatriates of Mexico living in California and Texas. 11 With respect to our rights to obtain new remittance locations for XTRAN, we intend to focus first on locations in Florida, followed by locations in other expatriate concentrated population centers such as New York, California and Texas. In this regard, we will direct our selling efforts to operators of retail store chains and to non-bank financial services companies in the U. S. and abroad in order to maximize our marketing budget. If we are unable to generate revenue within six months from the date of the closing of the offering, we will be required to limit our operations based upon our cash flow, if any. Liquidity and Capital Resources. To date we have not generated any revenue from operations. Funds used in our organizational activities were provided in the form of a $30,000 equity investment and a $35,000 loan both from our two stockholders which we used to prepay $65,000 of our offering expenses. The loans are evidenced by promissory notes bearing interest at 12% per annum and are due the earlier of completion of the offering or June 30, 2002. There are no agreements among officers, directors or shareholders to loan us additional funds in the future. We expect to need additional funds to finance the further development of our funds transfer business, in addition to the funds which may be generated from this offering. However, there can be no assurance that such funds will be available to us or that adequate funds for our operations, whether from debt or equity financings, will be available when needed or on terms satisfactory to us. Our failure to obtain adequate additional financing may require us to delay or curtail some or all of our business efforts. Any additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our then-existing stockholders. 12 BUSINESS History and Current Operations. We were organized as a Nevada corporation in January 2001. Our offices are located at 26 West Dry Creek Circle, Suite 600, Littleton, Colorado 80120, and our telephone number is (303) 794-9450. Our Web site address will be www.xtran123.com. We do not expect the Web site to be operational until the third quarter of 2001. In February 2001 we entered into an agreement with KeyCom, Inc. which we refer to as a Master Agency Agreement. KeyCom developed, and now operates under the trade name XTRAN, an electronic system for transferring funds from one location to another. Currently, XTRAN initiates funds transfer from approximately 400 remittance locations in New York and Florida and electronically transfers the funds to any of KeyCom's 2,100 payout locations in Jamaica, Mexico and Central America. A remittance location is any retail store or business that is authorized to accept consumer funds for transfer by the sender. A payout location is any retail store or business that is authorized to pay out transferred funds to the recipient. Under the Master Agency Agreement, we obtained the exclusive right to initiate funds transfers from a Web site we are developing to any XTRAN payout location. We intend to use XTRAN's proprietary software linked to our Web site in order to complete funds transfers. We also have the right to earn fees from KeyCom for obtaining additional XTRAN remittance locations worldwide. We have an exclusive license with KeyCom to act as its agent to market its electronic funds transfer system through the Internet and a non- exclusive right to be compensated for merchant remittance locations we obtain for KeyCom. Should KeyCom elect not to honor its exclusive agreement with us or cease its electronic funds transfer operations, we would be materially adversely affected in that we would be unable to continue in that business. Moreover, we can only market our Web based transfers of funds to destinations in which KeyCom has obtained payout locations. Accordingly, should KeyCom fail to obtain a significant number of such payout locations, our business will be extremely limited. We are a development stage enterprise and have not commenced operations or generated any revenue. We intend to use the proceeds of the offering to complete the development of our Web site for funds transfers and to begin soliciting XTRAN remittance locations in Florida. In order to achieve revenue and profitability, we must complete the development of and then market our funds transfer Web site. We cannot assure you that our Web based funds transfer business will ever achieve broad market acceptance, profitability or positive operating cash flow. Our limited operating history, lack of revenue to date and the uncertainty of the electronic funds transfer market in which we intend to operate, make any prediction of our future results of operations difficult or impossible. We expect to increase considerably our operating expenses in the future, particularly expenses to develop our Web site and establish remittance locations. We do not expect that our revenue will cover these expenses. As a result, we expect to incur significant losses and expect that we will need to raise additional capital. We cannot assure that we will be able to raise additional capital and we do not know what the terms of any such capital raising would be. Any future sale of our equity securities would dilute the ownership 13 and control of our stockholders and could be at prices substantially below the offering price. Our inability to raise capital could require us to significantly curtail our operations. KeyCom and XTRAN. KeyCom was incorporated in Delaware in July 1997 and is based in Westlake Village, California. KeyCom developed XTRAN as a method for transferring cash by electronic means, which KeyCom believes offers significant technological and cost advantages over traditional funds transfer systems currently used by market leading competitors such as Western Union and MoneyGram. XTRAN is KeyCom's sole product and is not protected by any intellectual property rights, although the name XTRAN is a registered trade name. XTRAN's electronic transfer system employs specially programmed point of sale terminals, which are the terminals that read credit cards or ATM cards at the cash register. XTRAN transfers cash electronically through commercial banks that move the funds between remittance and payout locations. Bank wire systems used by competitors generally transfer funds between separate banks for the remitter location and payout location and often require more paperwork than required using the XTRAN system. XTRAN transfers are simple and secure, allowing funds transfer agents to be quickly trained. However, the speed of the transaction is similar to that of a wire transfer and the two systems are not easily differentiated by the consumer. XTRAN believes its funds transfer system is user friendly. The person originating the funds transfer, often referred to as the remitter, tenders cash or a credit card, the agent programs numbers into the XTRAN terminal, a receipt is generated and the funds are available nearly instantly at the receiving payout destination point, directed solely by pin number and transaction number, to the person entitled to receive the funds. The user also receives a free 2-minute telephone card to arrange for funds pick-up with the recipient. The simple tasks performed by the XTRAN agent at a typical retail location set into motion the following series of computer-driven processes that make XTRAN work seamlessly: o The receiving point is notified; o The system that accomplishes the withdrawal and transfer of funds is alerted; o Cash is withdrawn from the sending location and transferred to central banking locations for electronic re-transmittal; o Cash is then transmitted from central banking locations to the proper receiving accounts; o Fees are identified for payment through the XTRAN distribution system; and o Transfers are tracked through secure Internet routing. 14 Expatriates sending funds to their country of origin and individuals without bank accounts are two segments of the repetitive funds transfer business. KeyCom has elected to concentrate its initial funds transfer marketing efforts to specific targeted expatriate populations. Specifically, KeyCom selected Jamaica, Mexico and Cuba as well suited for its initial marketing emphasis. This market is easy to identify and therefore reach because these expatriate populations are concentrated in certain ethnic neighborhoods. This concentration allows KeyCom to focus on existing retail chains in these target remittance and payout markets. Jamaicans in the United States have concentrated their populations in readily identifiable areas, such as specific neighborhoods in Queens, the Bronx and Brooklyn, New York, and Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Other concentrated populations exist in Toronto, Canada and other smaller cities throughout the United States. KeyCom has an exclusive agreement with Paymasters (Jamaica), LTD. which operates 51 utility payment locations on Jamaica to provide XTRAN with payout locations and has over 200 remittance terminals in Jamaican neighborhoods in New York and South Florida. In Mexico, KeyCom has contracted with Gigante Mercados S. A., Dimex S.A. and Central de Communicaciones S.A. which operate in the aggregate over 1,100 agent locations throughout Mexico, to act as payout locations. KeyCom has also joined the Mexican American Grocer's Association, which has hundreds of retail member stores suitable for use as remittance locations in Southern California, Texas, New Mexico and Arizona, where Mexicans and Mexican-Americans concentrate. The heaviest concentration of Cuban expatriates live in the South Florida area. KeyCom has contracted with Global Cash, S. A. which will provide over 500 payout locations through its relationships with banks in Cuba and with other retail locations in Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras and Costa Rica. U.S. originated funds transfers destined for Cuba must be routed through Central American locations to comply with U.S. regulations concerning doing business in Cuba. Strategy. Our strategy is to: o Complete the development of our Web site; o Direct our Web site marketing specifically to concentrated populations of expatriates whose countries or origin contain multiple XTRAN payout locations; o Solicit XTRAN remittance locations first in Florida and then in other U.S. and foreign locations; o Direct our remittance location marketing efforts to retail chain store operators; and o Offer Web based funds transfer services at rates below those of our competitors. 15 We expect to complete the development of our Web site for funds transfer by the third quarter of 2001. Because we have limited funds, we intend to direct our initial marketing efforts to Internet users who are expatriates of countries served by XTRAN and who live in concentrated geographical locations where marketing is expected to be more cost effective. An example of this approach is our expected emphasis upon expatriates of Jamaica living in New York and Florida and expatriates of Mexico living in California and Texas. With respect to our rights to obtain new remittance locations for XTRAN, we intend to focus first on locations in Florida, followed by locations in other expatriate concentrated population centers such as New York, California and Texas. In this regard, we will direct our selling efforts to operators of retail store chains and to non-bank financial services companies in the U. S. and abroad in order to maximize our marketing budget. XTRAN's funds transfer rates are less than those of its competitors. Based upon XTRAN's rates to us we believe that we will be able to offer XTRAN's funds transfer services at rates below those of our competitors. XTRAN is able to charge lower rates because there is a high profit margin in funds transfers. However, should rates of competitors be lowered in the future, XTRAN and we may no longer be able to offer lower rates than competitors. Web Based Transfer of Funds. We are developing a Web site that will allow our customer to initiate, from the customer's computer, a funds transfer transaction to a specific recipient at a designated payout location within the XTRAN system. XTRAN uses the customer's credit card or ATM card and other identifying customer information in order to allow the customer to transfer the funds in a secure environment. Because there are security considerations for Web based funds transfers, we are carefully considering the type of software that will be used and the methods we deploy. Our Web site will be designed to promote ease of use and is expected to be a less expensive alternative for executing a funds transfer transaction. Our Web site will also provide a directory of XTRAN payout locations so that the customer will have access to the address of a payout location close to the recipient. XTRAN also provides a two minute phone card to be used by the customer to relay transaction and security code information to the recipient. Rapidly changing technology and frequent new product and service introductions characterize the market for Internet and electronic funds transfer companies. Our future success will depend on our ability to maintain a fast and secure Web site for funds transfers in response to other competitive product offerings. Our efforts in these areas may not be successful. Our KeyCom Master Agency Agreement. Under our Master Agency Agreement with KeyCom, we obtained the exclusive right as XTRAN's agent to originate funds transfers from our Web site to any payout location which accepts XTRAN funds transfers. We also have the right to use XTRAN's trademark and logos. Currently XTRAN has payout locations in Jamaica, Mexico and Central America. Under the agreement we receive a fee of 15% of the fee charged the customer by XTRAN to complete the funds transfer. Our Master Agency Agreement also entitles us to obtain on a non-exclusive basis remittance locations for XTRAN anywhere in the world on a non-exclusive basis. In such event, we are entitled to 9% of the fee charged by XTRAN for payouts outside the U.S. and 5% of XTRAN's fee for payouts within the U.S. We are also entitled to a fixed fee of $225 for each remittance location established by us for XTRAN. We employ one employee for 30 hours per week in Florida to assist us in obtaining remittance locations. This employee's compensation is limited to a fee of $125 for each remittance location. XTRAN's fees to its customers range from .8% to 19% of funds transferred within and outside the United States. We are responsible for our own expenses in connection with obtaining funds transfer business through our Web site and in obtaining remittance locations. 16 The Master Agency Agreement is not terminable by either party unless breached by the other party. We are not required to generate any minimum number or amount of Web based transactions in order to maintain our exclusive Internet funds transfer rights. However, should KeyCom breach the agreement for any reason or cease its funds transfer business we would be unable to remain in the funds transfer business. Marketing. We intend to reach prospective customers by targeting our advertising and benefitting from XTRAN's advertising in the concentrated population centers in which these customers reside which initially will be Jamaican expatriates living in New York and Florida and Mexican expatriates living in California. Our advertising will include local and neighborhood foreign language newspapers, direct mailings and pamphlets distributed by XTRAN and its local merchants. We may also use Web based advertising links and banners on Web sites and portals which appeal to our target customers, as well as affiliate programs and search engine listings. We will attempt to use key words and phrases for funds transfers in order to improve our placement ranks in search engines. Nevertheless, our market will initially be further limited to Jamaicans and Mexicans who speak English and have a bank credit card against which the funds transfers will be charged. We hope to provide a Spanish language Web site in the future, but cannot assure we will be able to do so. With respect to our marketing to obtain remittance and payout locations, we intend to target U.S. and foreign chain stores which have the potential to serve as both remittance and payout locations. We will also target international financial service companies, including banks, that offer check cashing, prepaid telephone cards and prepaid cellular services to their customers. We will also market to retail grocery stores that offer non-bank financial services. We will focus primarily on merchants already selling products using an existing point of sale terminal rather than customers that require installation of new point of sale terminals. Government Regulation. Various aspects of KeyCom's service areas are indirectly subject to federal and state regulation. However, neither KeyCom or we are required to be licensed by federal or state regulatory agencies for the reasons stated below. Although many states license funds transfer companies and may require bonds or other forms of collateral, compliance with these laws is the responsibility of KeyCom's commercial banks who handle the funds transfers, and not by KeyCom or us. We simply act as a remittance agent to KeyCom, similar to the retail stores which initiate funds transfers to payout locations. KeyCom is not required to be licensed by the federal government or any foreign government because it does not handle funds. All funds transfers to Cuba are initiated by KeyCom's banks in Canada and sent to payout locations in Cuba licensed by the Cuban government. However, if KeyCom's commercial banks fail to comply with applicable laws or regulations and KeyCom is prohibited from doing business in any state or market, we would be unable to originate funds transfers in those locations. 17 Competition. The consumer funds transfer services industry is large and intensely competitive. Our primary competitor will be the two multinational companies serving our industry, Western Union and MoneyGram, as well as smaller local and regional funds transfers companies. Western Union is a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Data Corporation, a public company, and MoneyGram is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Travelers Express Company, Inc., which in turn is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Viad Corp., a public company. These two companies have substantially longer operating histories, greater name recognition and financial resources than we. Applicable competitive factors in the funds transfer business relate to the amount charged for the funds transfer, the convenience of multiple remittance and payout locations and the variety of other financial products offered at the remittance or payout locations. Through KeyCom, we have substantially fewer remittance and payout locations than competitors and offer no financial products other than our funds transfer. KeyCom and we also have little name recognition and significantly smaller financial resources for marketing and other purposes. We intend to charge less for our funds transfers but cannot assure that our competitors will not also lower their funds transfer charges in the future. Employees. We have one employee and three executive officers. The employee works 30 hours per week and our three executive officers work part-time and are uncompensated. Competition for qualified employees in the Internet services and electronic funds transfer industries is intense and there are a limited number of people with knowledge of and experience in either industry. The process of locating personnel with the skills required to carry out our strategies may be lengthy and costly. We do not have employment agreements with any of our executive officers nor do we carry key man insurance on their lives. Our success depends to a significant degree upon our ability to attract and retain qualified management, technical, marketing and sales personnel and upon the continued contributions of such people. Our employee and executive officers may voluntarily terminate their employment with us at any time. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in attracting and retaining qualified executives and personnel or that we will have the funds to pay such personnel. The loss of the services of key personnel, or the inability to attract additional qualified personnel, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Facilities. Our President provides us with 450 square feet of office space in his offices at 26 West Dry Creek Circle, Suite 600, Littleton, Colorado 80120 on a month to month basis at no cost to us. 18 MANAGEMENT Directors and Executive Officers.

He devotes 40 hours per month to our affairs. Michael G. Carpenter agreed to become our Chief Technical Officer in February 2001.

From July 1997 to January 2000, Mr. Carpenter was President of Internet Software Group, a firm specializing in the development of database-driven Web sites.

From December 1994 to September 1997, Mr. Carpenter was President and founder of EmiNet Domain, Inc., a Web design and programming company. He devotes ten hours per month to our affairs but is expected, upon completion of the offering, to devote up to 70 hours per month for which he will be compensated on an hourly basis. Significant Employee Russell Pollock, age 38, became our Locations Director in April 2001 and is directly responsible for finding new remittance locations for us to provide to KeyCom. From August 2000, until he joined us, Mr. Pollock was senior project manager for KeyCom. From June 1988 to July 2000, Mr. Pollock was employed by Vehicle Specialists as its Sales Manager. We have agreed to pay Mr. Pollock $125 for each remittance location he provides to us. Mr. Pollock devotes 30 hours per week to our affairs. Executive Compensation. None of our executive officers has received or currently receives compensation. We do not have employment agreements with any of our executive officers. Although we have developed a stock option plan, none of our executive officers or directors have been granted stock options under the plan. Stock Option Plan. In February 2001, our stockholders adopted our 2001 Stock Option Plan, which provides for the grant to employees, officers, directors and consultants of options to purchase up to an aggregate of 250,000 shares of common stock, consisting of both "incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422A of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") and "non-qualified" options. Incentive stock options are issuable only to employees, while non-qualified options may be issued to non-employee directors, consultants and others, as well as to employees. The Plan is administered by our board of directors, which determines those individuals who are to receive options, the time period during which the options may be partially or fully exercised, the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased under each option, and the option price. The per share exercise price of the common stock subject to an incentive stock option or non-qualified option may not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date the option is granted. The per share exercise price of the common stock subject to a non-qualified option will be established by the board of directors. The aggregate fair market value, determined as of the date the option is granted, of the common stock that any employee may purchase in any calendar year pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options may not exceed $1,000,000. No person who owns, directly or indirectly, at the time of the granting of an incentive stock option to him, more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock is eligible to receive any incentive stock options under the Plan unless the option price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock subject to the option, determined on the date of grant. Non-qualified options are not subject to this limitation. 20 No incentive stock option may be transferred by an optionee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and during the lifetime of an optionee, the option will be exercisable only by him or her. In the event of termination of employment other than by death or disability, the optionee has three months after such termination during which he or she can exercise the option. Upon termination of employment of an optionee by reason of death or permanent total disability, his or her option remains exercisable for one year thereafter to the extent it was exercisable on the date of such termination. No similar limitation applies to non- qualified options. Options under the Plan must be granted within ten years from the effective date as amended of the Plan. The incentive stock options granted under the Plan cannot be exercised more than ten years from the date of grant except that incentive stock options issued to 10% or greater stockholders are limited to five year terms. Options granted under the Plan may provide for the payment of the exercise price in cash or by delivery to us of shares of common stock already owned by the optionee having a fair market value equal to the exercise price of the options being exercised, or by a combination of such methods of payment. Therefore, an optionee may be able to tender shares of common stock to purchase additional shares of common stock and may possibly exercise all of his stock options with no additional investment other than his original shares. Any unexercised options that expire or that terminate upon an optionee ceasing to be an officer, director or an employee becomes available once again for issuance. To date, we have granted 100,000 options under the Plan to Mr. Carpenter, one of our executive officers, and 25,000 options to an employee, exerciseable at $.25 per share. Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors. Our Articles of Incorporation provides that our directors will not be liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as directors, other than the liability of a director for: o An intentional breach of the director's fiduciary duty to our company or our stockholders; o Acts or omissions by the director which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law; or o The payment of an unlawful dividend, stock purchase or redemption. Our Articles of Incorporation also require us to indemnify all persons whom we may indemnify pursuant to Nevada law to the full extent permitted by Nevada law. Our bylaws require us to indemnify our officers and directors and other persons against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts incurred or paid in settlement in connection with civil or criminal claims, actions, suits or proceedings against such persons by reason of serving or having served as officers, directors, or in other capacities, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interests and, in a criminal action or proceeding, if he had no reasonable cause to believe that his/her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of no contest or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a 21 presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interests or that he or she had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Indemnification as provided in our bylaws shall be made only as authorized in a specific case and upon a determination that the person met the applicable standards of conduct. Insofar as the limitation of, or indemnification for, liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such limitation or indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is therefore, unenforceable.

Neither Mr. Perkins nor Mr. Mathis are officers, directors or principal stockholders of KeyCom. DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK General. We are authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.001 par value per share. Common Stock. At January 31, 2001, we had 1,350,000 shares of common stock outstanding. The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors. There is no right to cumulate votes in the election of directors. The holders of common stock are entitled to any dividends that may be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor subject to the prior rights of holders of preferred stock and any contractual restrictions we have against the payment of dividends on common stock.

Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series with such designations, voting powers, if any, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and such qualifications, limitations and restrictions, as are determined by resolution of our Board of Directors. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company without further action by stockholders and could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of common stock. In certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could depress the market price of the common stock. There are no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding. Dividends. We do not intend to pay dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future. Transfer Agent. Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc., Denver, Colorado is our transfer agent. 24 SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE Upon completion of the offering, we will have 1,850,000 shares outstanding, of which 500,000 will have been registered by this prospectus. The remaining 1,350,000 shares may be sold by our two stockholders under Rule 144 of the Securities Act commencing January 2002. In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person, or persons whose shares are aggregated, who owns shares that were purchased from us, or any affiliate, at least one year previously, including a person who may be deemed our affiliate, is entitled to sell within any three-month period, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of: o 1% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock; or o The average weekly trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the date on which notice of the sale is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions, notice requirements and the availability of current public information about us. Any person who is not deemed to have been our affiliate at any time during the 90 days preceding a sale, and who owns shares within the definition of "restricted securities" under Rule 144 under the Securities Act that were purchased from us, or any affiliate, at least two years previously, is entitled to sell such shares under Rule 144(k) without regard to the volume limitations, manner of sale provisions, public information requirements or notice requirements. Future sales of common stock by our stockholders under Rule 144 or otherwise or sales of the shares which we are registering under this prospectus could negatively impact the market price of our common stock. We are unable to estimate the number of shares that may be sold in the future by our stockholders or the effect, if any, that sales of shares by our stockholders will have on the market price of our common stock prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock by our stockholders could adversely affect prevailing market prices.

Littleton, Colorado We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Instanet, Inc. (a Development Stage Company) as of January 31, 2001 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the period from January 9, 2001 (Inception) through January 31, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Instanet, Inc. as of January 31, 2001, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from January 9, 2001 (Inception) though January 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the financial statements, the Company is in the development stage and has not completed its capital raising activities to fund substantial initial operations. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty.

(A Development Stage Company) Notes to Financial Statements Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - -------------------------------------------------------------------- Instanet, Inc. (the "Company"), Nevada corporation, was incorporated in January 2001. The Company is organized for the purpose of providing market extensions, including on the internet, for an electronic cash transmission system developed and owned by an outside company. The Company is a development stage company that has not had any revenue from operations since inception. The Company is in the process of obtaining additional equity from a public offering. There is no assurance that the Company will generate revenue or earn profit in the future. Deferred Offering Costs - ----------------------- Deferred offering costs represents costs incurred in conjunction with the Company's equity offering and registration activities. Deferred offering costs will be offset against net proceeds, if successful, or expensed in operations if the offering is unsuccessful. Revenue Recognition - ------------------- The Company will recognize revenues as services are performed. Income Taxes - ------------ Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences. Temporary differences are differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. As the Company had no operations for the period, there are no differences in the book and tax basis of its assets and liabilities. 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, 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. F-7 INSTANET, INC. (A Development Stage Company) Notes to Financial Statements Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - ----------------------------------------- In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 101, which will become effective for financial statements with periods ending after December 15, 2000. SAB 101 provides guidance on applying generally accepted accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. Management believes that the Company's revenue recognition policies are in accordance with SAB 101. Note 2 - Related Party Transactions - ----------------------------------- The corporate offices of the Company are located at the corporate offices of the president of the Company. No rent has been charged, but there can be no assurance that rent will not be charged in the future. The value of the rent received is immaterial to the financial statements as a whole. Note 3 - Subsequent Event - ------------------------- Master Agency Agreement - ----------------------- In February 2001 the Company entered into a Master Agency Agreement with Key Com, Inc. ("KeyCom") which developed, and now operates under the trade name XTRAN, an electronic system for transferring funds from one location to another. Currently, XTRAN initiates funds transfer from approximately 200 remittance locations in New York and Florida and electronically transfers the funds to any of the 2,100 payout locations in Jamaica, Mexico and Central America. Under the Master Agency Agreement with KeyCom, the Company obtained the exclusive right to originate funds transfers from the Company's Web site to any payout location, which accepts XTRAN funds transfers. Currently XTRAN has payout locations in Jamaica, Mexico and Central America. Under the agreement the Company will receive a fee of 15% of the fee charged the customer by XTRAN to complete the funds transfer. The Master Agency Agreement also entitles the Company to obtain on a non-exclusive basis remittance locations for XTRAN anywhere in the world on a non-exclusive basis. In such event, the Company is entitled to 9% of the fee charged by XTRAN for payouts outside the U.S. and 5% of XTRAN's fee for payouts within the U.S. The Company is also entitled to a fixed fee of $225 for each remittance location established on behalf of XTRAN, and a $3,000 monthly fee, cancelable by KeyCom on 30 days notice, to assist KeyCom in developing new Florida remittance locations.

ITEM 26. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES. The Registrant was organized in January 2001, and at that time, sold 450,000 shares to Mathis Family Partners, Ltd., for $10,000 ($.022 per share) and 900,000 shares to Van R. Perkins for $20,000 ($.022 per share). There have been no other sales of the Registrant's common stock. In February 2001, the Registrant issued 100,000 stock options to Michael G. Carpenter, an executive officer, and 25,000 stock options to Russell Pollock, an employee, under the Registrant's 2001 Stock Option Plan, exercisable at $.25 per share. With respect to both of the above securities issuances (common stock and stock options), the Registrant relied on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). No advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities. The common stock was issued to two persons, both of whom were officers and directors of the Registrant and the stock options were issued to two employees, one of which is an executive officer of the Registrant. Both persons who purchased common stock were accredited investors who acquired the securities for investment and not with a view toward distribution or resale. The stock options were issued to the employees, both of whom were familiar with the Registrant's business. All common stock and any common stock underlying the stock options contain a restrictive legend prohibiting transfer of the shares except in accordance with federal securities laws. II-1 ITEM 27.

The Registrant hereby undertakes: (a) That insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant, 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 Registration of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person to the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director 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 of 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. (b) That subject to the terms and conditions of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, it will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission such supplementary and periodic information, documents and reports as may be prescribed by any rule or regulation of the Commission heretofore or hereafter duly adopted pursuant to authority conferred in that section. (c) That any post-effective amendment filed will comply with the applicable forms, rules and regulations of the Commission in effect at the time such post-effective amendment is filed. (d) 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; (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; (e) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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. (f) 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. (g) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment all of the securities if the minimum 150,000 shares are not all sold at the termination of this Offering.
