A: The board of directors of Ultimate Security Systems Corporation, a Nevada corporation (referred to herein as "USSC" or "Ultimate") and Immunotechnology Corporation (sometimes referred to herein as "IMNT") have adopted the plan of merger, which is fully described under "Proposal 1 -- Approval of the Agreement and Plan of Merger -- Background of the Merger " and "Proposal 1 -- Approval of the Agreement and Plan of Merger -- Determination of the Terms of the Merger" that will result in the merger between USSC and IMNT. The Agreement and Plan of Merger shall be referred to herein as the "Merger Agreement". The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement shall be referred to herein as the "Merger". The board of directors of USSC and IMNT believe that the merger is in the best interests of both companies, including the respective shareholders, for the following reasons: IMNT REASONS FOR APPROVING THE MERGER. We have had no operations since 1992. Since then, our management has been actively seeking potential business acquisitions or opportunities to enter into in an effort to commence business operations that will prove to be beneficial to us and our shareholders. In evaluating potential business opportunities, our management has considered various factors including financial requirements and the availability of additional financing, history of operations, the nature of present and expected competition, the quality and experience of management, and the potential for future growth, expansion and profits. After investigation and evaluation of USSC, our management has determined that the merger with Ultimate provides the best opportunity we have discovered to date. Ultimate's management has presented us with a business plan that is focused on commercializing a proprietary device for the protection of automobiles from theft. Ultimate's management intends to aggressively pursue its current business strategy and therefore our shareholders may be able to benefit from any related increased market activity in our common stock. There are, however, no assurances that Ultimate's management will be able to conduct profitable operations or that our shareholders will benefit from increased market activity in our common stock. Our Board of Directors has not obtained an independent opinion or other evaluation regarding the fairness of the terms of the Merger Agreement due to the substantial costs in obtaining such an opinion or evaluation. ULTIMATE'S REASONS FOR THE APPROVING THE MERGER. The Board of Directors of Ultimate believes that the Merger will provide Ultimate stockholders an opportunity to increase the liquidity of their shares. Specifically, assuming that the Merger is consummated, Ultimate shareholders will own shares in a "public company" and, as such, will be entitled to sell their stock through the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. In reaching its decision to approve the Merger Agreement, the Ultimate Board of Directors consulted with its financial and legal advisors and with management and considered a number of factors, including, without limitation, the following material factors: 10 - - the strategic and financial alternatives available to Ultimate, including remaining a privately held company; - - the structure of the transaction, which is intended to qualify as a tax-free "reorganization" under Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the related sections thereunder; and - - Ultimate's desire to have its shares publicly traded by using IMNT as a vehicle to accomplish that desire without the time and expense typically associated with an IPO. This discussion of the information and factors considered by the Ultimate Board of Directors in making their decision to approve the Merger Agreement is not intended to be exhaustive but includes all material factors considered by the Ultimate Board of Directors. Q: WHAT WILL BE THE NAME OF THE COMBINED COMPANY? A: The surviving corporation in the merger will be named Ultimate Security Systems Corporation. Q: WILL THE COMBINED COMPANY HAVE A NEW SYMBOL ON THE NASD BULLETIN BOARD? A: Yes. The combined company will apply for authorization to trade on the NASD over-the-counter bulletin board and for a new symbol upon completion of the merger. Q: WHAT WILL USSC SHAREHOLDERS RECEIVE FOR THEIR SHARES? A: The holders of USSC common stock and the holders of USSC Series A and Series B preferred stock will receive 11.211446 shares of common stock of the combined company for each share of USSC common stock that they own. If the merger is consummated with the requisite shareholder vote, the combined company will convert each share of USSC Series A and Series B preferred stock into two (2) shares of combined company common stock and, thereafter, each USSC preferred shareholder will receive two (2) shares of combined company common stock for each share of USSC preferred stock so converted. As a result, each USSC preferred shareholder will effectively receive 22.4228892 shares of combined company common stock for each share of preferred stock. The combined company will not issue fractional shares in the merger. The USSC shareholders, upon completion of the Merger, will own 88% of the outstanding combined company common stock and 88% on a fully diluted basis. Q: WHAT WILL SHULMAN AND ASSOCIATES AND STENTON LEIGH BUSINESS RESOURCES, INC. RECEIVE IN THE MERGER? A: On or about July 1, 2003, USSC entered into a Consulting and Acquisition Management Agreement (the "SA Agreement") (attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1) with Dollars and Sterling Corporation d/b/a Shulman & Associates, a Florida 11 corporation ("SA") wherein SA agreed to advise USSC on certain business matters, including, but not limited to, potential acquisitions and financial public relations. In exchange, USSC agreed to pay SA an initial fee of $5,000 and a monthly fee of $5,000 and, upon completion of the merger between IMNT and USSC, issue SA options to purchase 1,600,000 shares of the combined company's common stock at $0.10 per share (the conversion price is subject to change according to the terms of the SA Agreement). USSC has also agreed to pay no less than a 4% cash fee as an advisory and introduction fee related to financing and funding. The term of the SA Agreement is two (2) years from the date of execution but can be terminated by either party with thirty (30) written notice. The compensation ultmimately paid to SA depends on several factors more particularly described in the agreement attached as Exhibit 10.1. IMNT has agreed to assume USSC's obligations under the SA Agreement in conjunction with the merger. The underlying shares to be issued upon conversion by SA are being registered in this registration statement. On or about February 19, 2003, USSC entered into an Advisory Services Agreement (the "Stenton Agreement") (attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2) with Stenton Leigh Business Resources, Inc. ("Stenton") wherein Stenton agreed to provide consulting services related to certain business matters, including, but not limited to, USSC's merger with IMNT. In exchange, USSC agreed to pay Stenton $500,000 when the following conditions have been met: (i) the IMNT/USSC merger is completed; and (ii) USSC is able to raise $5,000,000 pursuant to a private placement of its stock. Upon the completion of the merger, USSC also agreed to issue Stenton options to purchase 2,000,000 shares of USSC's common stock at $0.10 per share. The Stenton Agreement provides that the options will have a "cashless exercise provision" allowing for conversion by Stenton at the difference between the stock market bid price at the time of conversion and the $0.10 exercise price. The compensation ultmimately paid to SA depends on several factors more particularly described in the agreement attached as Exhibit 10.2. IMNT has agreed to assume USSC's obligations under the SA Agreement in conjunction with the merger. The underlying shares to be issued upon conversion by Stenton are being registered in this registration statement. Q: HOW WERE THE MERGER EXCHANGE RATIOS DETERMINED? A: In determining the exchange rate, USSC's Board of Directors and our Board of Directors considered, among other things, the following: o We have no business and USSC's business will be our business following the Merger. o There is no public market for USSC's common or preferred stock. o The volume of trading in our stock is minimal to nonexistent. o The Merger may increase the value of our common stock. o The Merger may increase the value of USSC's common stock. Q: WHO WILL BE THE 5% OR OVER SHAREHOLDERS WHEN THE MERGER IS COMPLETED? 12 The following table reflects the anticipated ownership of the combined company's stock following the Merger for all stockholders who will beneficially own 5% or more of the combined company's outstanding common stock.

Q: WHO WILL MANAGE THE COMBINED COMPANY? A: The board of directors and executive officers of the combined company will be the same as the board of directors and executive officers of USSC. 13 Q: WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NOW? A: We are not soliciting proxies. We have obtained the affirmative vote, by written consent without a meeting, of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock in favor of the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, any action that may be taken at any meeting of our stockholders may also be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted (here, a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock) and delivered to us. A condition of the Merger Agreement is that at least two-thirds (2/3) of the USSC Series A Preferred Stock and at least two-thirds (2/3) of the USSC Series B Preferred Stock vote in favor of the merger. As a condition to the closing of the Merger, Ultimate must also obtain the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock in favor of the Merger Agreement. Q: DO I HAVE THE RIGHT TO DISSENT TO THE MERGER AND OBTAIN APPRAISAL RIGHTS? Holders of shares of our common stock who do not approve of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and who properly demand appraisal of their shares will be entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the Merger under Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS NOT A COMPLETE STATEMENT OF THE LAW PERTAINING TO APPRAISAL RIGHTS UNDER THE DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW AND IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY THE FULL TEXT OF SECTION 262 WHICH IS ATTACHED TO THIS INFORMATION AS APPENDIX A. YOU SHOULD READ APPENDIX A IN ITS ENTIRETY. EXCEPT WHERE THE CONTEXT REQUIRES OTHERWISE, ALL REFERENCES IN SECTION 262 AND IN THIS SUMMARY TO A "STOCKHOLDER" ARE TO THE RECORD HOLDER OF THE SHARES OF IMNT'S COMMON STOCK AS TO WHICH APPRAISAL RIGHTS ARE ASSERTED. A PERSON HAVING A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN SHARES OF IMNT'S COMMON STOCK HELD OF RECORD IN THE NAME OF ANOTHER PERSON, SUCH AS A BROKER OR NOMINEE, MUST ACT PROMPTLY TO CAUSE THE RECORD HOLDER TO FOLLOW THE STEPS SUMMARIZED BELOW PROPERLY AND IN A TIMELY MANNER TO PERFECT APPRAISAL RIGHTS. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, persons who hold shares of IMNT common stock who follow the procedures set forth in Section 262 will be entitled to have their shares of IMNT's common stock appraised by the Delaware Court of Chancery and to receive payment of the "fair value" of such shares, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger, together with a fair rate of interest, as determined by such court. 14 Under Section 262, where notice of a merger is sent to stockholders, as in the case of the adoption of the Merger Agreement by written consent of a majority of our stockholders, the corporation, not less than 20 days prior to the effective date of the merger, must notify each of its stockholders entitled to appraisal rights that such appraisal rights are available and include in such notice a copy of Section 262. THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT SHALL CONSTITUTE SUCH NOTICE, AND THE APPLICABLE STATUTORY PROVISIONS ARE ATTACHED TO THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT AS APPENDIX A. A holder of shares of our common stock wishing to exercise such holder's appraisal rights must deliver to us, before the effective date of the Merger Agreement, a written demand for the appraisal of their shares, and must signify that they are not in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement. A holder of shares of IMNT's common stock wishing to exercise such holder's appraisal rights must hold of record such shares on the date the written demand for appraisal is made and must continue to hold such shares of record through the effective time of the merger. A letter stating that the holder is against the adoption of the Merger Agreement will not in and of itself constitute a written demand for appraisal satisfying the requirements of Section 262. The demand must reasonably inform us of the identity of the holder as well as the intention of the holder to demand an appraisal of the 'fair value' of the shares held by such holder. Only a holder of record of shares of IMNT's common stock is entitled to assert appraisal rights for the shares of IMNT common stock registered in that holder's name. A demand for appraisal in respect of shares of IMNT common stock should be executed by or on behalf of the holder of record, fully and correctly, as such holder's name appears on such holder's stock certificates, and must state that such person intends thereby to demand appraisal of such holder's shares of IMNT common stock in connection with the merger. If the shares of IMNT common stock are owned of record in a fiduciary capacity, such as by a trustee, guardian or custodian, execution of the demand should be made in that capacity, and if the shares of IMNT common stock are owned of record by more than one person, as in a joint tenancy and tenancy in common, the demand should be executed by or on behalf of all joint owners. An authorized agent, including two or more joint owners, may execute a demand for appraisal on behalf of a holder of record; however, the agent must identify the record owner or owners and expressly disclose the fact that in executing the demand, the agent is agent for such owner or owners. A record holder such as a broker who holds shares of IMNT common stock as nominee for several beneficial owners may exercise appraisal rights with respect to the shares of IMNT common stock held for one or more beneficial owners while not exercising such rights with respect to the shares of IMNT common stock held for other beneficial owners; in such case, however, the written demand should set forth the number of shares of IMNT common stock as to which appraisal is sought and where no number of shares of IMNT common stock is expressly mentioned the demand will be presumed to cover all shares of IMNT common stock held in the name of the record owner. Stockholders who hold their shares of IMNT common stock in brokerage accounts or other nominee forms and who wish to exercise appraisal rights are urged to consult with their brokers to determine the appropriate procedures for the making of a demand for appraisal by such a nominee. 15 ALL WRITTEN DEMANDS FOR APPRAISAL PURSUANT TO SECTION 262 SHOULD BE SENT OR DELIVERED TO US AT 1661 LAKEVIEW CIRCLE OGDEN, UTAH 84403, ATTENTION: CORPORATE SECRETARY. Within ten days after the effective time of the merger, the surviving corporation must notify each holder of our common stock who has complied with Section 262 of the date that the merger has become effective. Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger, the surviving corporation or any holder of IMNT common stock who has so complied with Section 262 and is entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 may file a petition in the Delaware Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the fair value of such holder's shares of IMNT common stock. The surviving corporation is under no obligation to and has no present intention to file such a petition. Accordingly, it is the obligation of the holders of IMNT's common stock to initiate all necessary action to perfect their appraisal rights in respect of such shares of IMNT common stock within the time prescribed in Section 262. Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger, any holder of IMNT common stock who has complied with the requirements for exercise of appraisal rights will be entitled, upon written request, to receive from the surviving corporation a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares. Such statement must be mailed within ten days after a written request for the statement has been received by the surviving corporation or within ten days after the expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisal, whichever is later. If a petition for an appraisal is timely filed by a holder of shares of IMNT common stock and a copy of the petition is served upon the surviving corporation, the surviving corporation will then be obligated within 20 days to file with the Delaware Register in Chancery a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all stockholders who have demanded an appraisal of their shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached. After notice to such stockholders as required by the court, the Delaware Court of Chancery is empowered to conduct a hearing on such petition to determine those stockholders who have complied with Section 262 and who have become entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262. The Delaware Court of Chancery may require the holders of shares of IMNT common stock who demanded payment for their shares to submit their stock certificates to the Register in Chancery for notation on the certificate of the pendency of the appraisal proceeding; and if any stockholder fails to comply with such direction, the Delaware Court of Chancery may dismiss the proceedings as to such stockholder. After determining the holders of IMNT common stock entitled to appraisal, the Delaware Court of Chancery will appraise the 'fair value' of their shares of IMNT common stock, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value. 16 Holders of IMNT common stock considering seeking appraisal should be aware that the fair value of their shares of IMNT common stock as so determined could be more than, the same as or less than the consideration they would receive in the merger if they did not seek appraisal of their shares of IMNT common stock and that investment banking opinions as to fairness from a financial point of view are not necessarily opinions as to fair value under Section 262. The Delaware Supreme Court has stated that "proof of value by any techniques or methods which are generally considered acceptable in the financial community and otherwise admissible in court" should be considered in the appraisal proceedings. In addition, Delaware courts have decided that the statutory appraisal remedy, depending on factual circumstances, may or may not be a dissenter's exclusive remedy. The court will also determine the amount of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amounts to be received by persons whose shares of IMNT common stock have been appraised. The costs of the action may be determined by the court and taxed upon the parties as the court deems equitable. The court may also order that all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any stockholder in connection with an appraisal, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and the fees and expenses of experts utilized in the appraisal proceeding, be charged pro rata against the value of all the shares entitled to be appraised. Any holder of shares of IMNT common stock who has duly demanded an appraisal in compliance with Section 262 will not, after the effective time of the merger, be entitled to vote the shares of IMNT common stock subject to such demand for any purpose or be entitled to the payment of dividends or other distributions on those shares of IMNT common stock (except dividends or other distributions payable to holders of record of IMNT common stock as of a record date prior to the effective time of the merger). If any stockholder who demands appraisal of such holder's shares of IMNT common stock under Section 262 fails to perfect, or effectively withdraws or loses, such holder's right to appraisal, the shares of IMNT common stock of such stockholder will be converted into the right to receive the merger consideration. A stockholder will fail to perfect, or effectively lose or withdraw, such holder's right to appraisal if no petition for appraisal is filed within 120 days after the effective time of the merger, or if the stockholder delivers to the surviving corporation a written withdrawal of such holder's demand for appraisal and an acceptance of the merger, except that any such attempt to withdraw made more than 60 days after the effective time of the merger will require the written approval of the surviving corporation and, once a petition for appraisal is filed, the appraisal proceeding may not be dismissed as to any holder absent court approval. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE STEPS REQUIRED BY SECTION 262 OF THE DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW FOR PERFECTING APPRAISAL RIGHTS MAY RESULT IN THE LOSS OF SUCH RIGHTS. Q: SHOULD I SEND IN MY STOCK CERTIFICATES NOW? A: No. You should not send in your stock certificates at this time. After the merger, the certificates currently representing shares of IMNT common stock will then represent the right to receive the same number of shares of common stock of the combined company. The holders of USSC common stock and the holders of USSC Series A and Series B preferred stock will receive 11.211446 shares of common 17 stock of the combined company for each share of USSC common stock that they own. If the merger is consummated with the requisite shareholder vote, the combined company will convert each share of USSC Series A and Series B preferred stock into two (2) shares of combined company common stock and, thereafter, each USSC preferred shareholder will receive two (2) shares of combined company common stock for each share of USSC preferred stock so converted. As a result, each USSC preferred shareholder will effectively receive 22.4228892 shares of combined company common stock for each share of preferred stock. The combined company will not issue fractional shares in the merger. The USSC shareholders, upon completion of the Merger, will own 88% of the outstanding combined company common stock and 88% on a fully diluted basis. Following the merger, the combined company will mail instructions to all IMNT and USSC shareholders for exchanging their stock certificates. Q: WHEN DO YOU EXPECT TO MERGE? A: We expect to complete the merger shortly after receipt of the shareholder approvals and after the Registration Statement on S-4, of which this Information Statement is a part, is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Q: WHOM SHOULD I CALL WITH QUESTIONS OR TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL COPIES OF THIS DOCUMENT? A: Mark Scharmann President and Chief Executive Officer of Immunotechnology Corporation 1661 Lakeview Circle Ogden, Utah 84403 801.399.3632 SUMMARY This summary highlights selected information contained in this information statement/prospectus. This summary does not contain all of the information that is important to you and is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information appearing elsewhere in this document or that is incorporated by reference. THE COMPANIES ULTIMATE SECURITY SYSTEMS CORPORATION 18271 West McDurmott, Suite F Irvine, California 92612 USSC was incorporated in August 1994 in the state of Nevada to develop and commercialize an automobile anti-theft device. USSC's activities to date have included raising capital, developing prototype devices, and selling such devices, beginning in September 2000, through multiple distribution channels. USSC's product is known as the "Powerlock (TM)" which is a "sealed" electronic system which arms within 45 seconds of the ignition being turned off. PowerLock(TM) works by creating an open ignition circuit that disables the starting circuitry directly at the starter. If the system is tampered with the horn will sound for 60 seconds. The system can also protect the contents of the vehicle by sounding the horn or a siren in case of a break-in. 18 The product is an adaptable security module with microprocessors that prevents electrical current from being delivered through the vehicle's starter solenoid. An enhanced version was introduced by USSC in early 2002, allowing USSC to market both the basic unit and the new "proximity transponder" version. Once the enhanced version is wired into a vehicle's power door locks, the customer can automatically unlock the vehicle's doors without pressing any buttons. This gives the customer not only the security feature of the basic version, but also hands-free convenience. USSC has also developed a version which can be installed onto motorcycles. The motorcycle application operates in the same manner as the automobile application, however, the system is specially engineered to withstand greater levels of vibration, moisture exposure, and temperature fluctuations. IMMUNOTECHNOLOGY CORPORATION 1661 Lakeview Circle Ogden, Utah 84403 801.399.3632 Since the sale of our assets in August 2001, our management has been seeking potential business acquisition or opportunities to enter in an effort to recommence business operations. We did not restrict our search for a business opportunity to any particular industry or geographical area and considered the possibility of engaging in essentially any business in any industry. The selection of a business opportunity in which to participate is complex and risky. Additionally, as we had only limited resources, it was difficult to find good opportunities. There was no assurance that we could identify a business opportunity which would ultimately prove to be beneficial to us and our shareholders. The risks we faced were further increased as a result of our lack of resources and our inability to provide a prospective business opportunity with significant capital. We finally selected the potential business opportunity offered by the merger with USSC based on our management's business judgment. THE MERGER NATURE OF THE MERGER The merger will combine USSC and IMNT with IMNT being the surviving corporation after the merger. Following the merger, the combined company will operate under the Ultimate Security Systems Corporation name. We will accomplish the merger through the statutory merger of USSC into IMNT and issue shares of the combined company to the shareholders of both USSC and IMNT. 19 BACKGROUND OF THE MERGER -- RESTRUCTURING PLAN The merger is part of a restructuring plan that will result in the statutory merger of USSC and IMNT such that both USSC and IMNT shareholders will receive shares of the combined entity. Once this Registration Statement on Form S-4 is declared "effective" by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the shares of the combined entity registered herein will be eligible for quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board maintained by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. WHAT IMNT SHAREHOLDERS WILL RECEIVE AS A RESULT OF THE MERGER The holders of IMNT common stock will receive one share of common stock of the combined company for each share of IMNT common stock that they own. The combined entity will continue USSC's business. WHAT USSC SHAREHOLDERS WILL RECEIVE AS A RESULT OF THE MERGER The holders of USSC common stock and the holders of USSC Series A and Series B preferred stock will receive 11.211446 shares of common stock of the combined company for each share of USSC common stock that they own. If the merger is consummated with the requisite shareholder vote, the combined company will convert each share of USSC Series A and Series B preferred stock into two (2) shares of combined company common stock and, thereafter, each USSC preferred shareholder will receive two (2) shares of combined company common stock for each share of USSC preferred stock so converted. As a result, each USSC preferred shareholder will effectively receive 22.4228892 shares of combined company common stock for each share of preferred stock. The combined company will not issue fractional shares in the merger. The USSC shareholders, upon completion of the Merger, will own 88% of the outstanding combined company common stock and 88% on a fully diluted basis. WHAT JAMES COOPER WILL RECEIVE AS A RESULT OF THE RESTRUCTURING PLAN As a result of the Merger, James Cooper, president and a director of USSC, will be issued 29,897,182 shares of the combined company common stock in exchange for the 2,666,666 shares of USSC common stock currently owned by Mr. Cooper. As a result, Mr. Cooper will own approximately 7.2% of the total issued and outstanding common stock of the combined company. 20 OWNERSHIP OF THE COMBINED COMPANY FOLLOWING THE COMPLETION OF THE MERGER As a result of the merger, the pre-merger USSC shareholders will own 88% and the pre-merger shareholders of IMNT will own 12% of the outstanding common stock of the combined company. On a fully diluted basis, assuming conversion of all preferred equity of the combined company that is convertible into shares of common stock of the combined company, the pre-merger USSC shareholders will own approximately 88%, the shareholders of IMNT will own approximately 12%, James Cooper will own approximately 7.2% and John Hillard will own approximately 7.2% of the combined company common stock. INCLUSION OF SHARES OF THE COMBINED COMPANY COMMON STOCK FOR TRADING ON THE NASD OVER-THE-COUNTER BULLETIN BOARD Following the merger, the combined company will seek authorization for its common stock to be traded on the NASD over-the-counter bulletin board and a stock symbol will be issued for such trading. IT IS NOT ANTICIPATED THAT THE COMBINED COMPANY WILL PAY DIVIDENDS FOLLOWING THE MERGER Neither USSC nor IMNT has ever paid dividends on its common stock. It is not anticipated that the combined company will pay dividends after the merger. THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER ARE UNCERTAIN The companies have not received a tax opinion regarding the federal income tax consequences of the merger. The range of possible tax consequences is described in this information statement/prospectus under the heading "Material Federal Income Tax Consequences." THERE ARE NO MATERIAL FEDERAL OR STATE REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS NECESSARY TO CONSUMMATE THE MERGER There are no material federal or state regulatory requirements to be complied with to consummate the merger. However, the merger will not be effective until USSC and IMNT file articles of merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada and the Secretary of the State of Delaware. USSC AND IMNT SHAREHOLDERS WILL HAVE APPRAISAL RIGHTS Under the Nevada Revised Statutes and the Delaware General Corporation Law, notwithstanding the approval of the merger by the holders of the requisite number of shares of capital stock of USSC and IMNT, USSC and IMNT shareholders who deliver a written notice to USSC or IMNT of his or her intent to demand payment for his shares if the merger is effectuated, who does not vote his or her shares in favor of the merger and who otherwise strictly complies with the requirements of Nevada law (for USSC shareholders) or Delaware law (for IMNT shareholders) may be able to demand payment from USSC or IMNT for the fair value of his or her shares. 21 BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND MANAGEMENT OF THE COMBINED COMPANY FOLLOWING THE MERGER Following consummation of the merger, USSC's Board of Directors will continue as the board of directors of the combined company. James Cooper, currently serving as president, secretary, treasurer, chief executive officer and chairman of the board of USSC, will be president, secretary, treasurer, chief executive officer and chairman of the board of the combined company. Jay Bitner, current member of USSC's board of directors, will become a member of the board of directors of the combined entity. COMPARATIVE PER SHARE MARKET PRICE INFORMATION Shares of IMNT common stock trade on the NASD over-the-counter bulletin board on which bid and ask prices are quoted. ACCOUNTING TREATMENT The transaction involves the merger of Ultimate Security Systems Corporation ("USSC"), a privately held Nevada corporation, into Immunotechnology Corporation ("IMNT"), a publicly held Delaware corporation. USSC is an active business corporation and IMNT is a dormant shell. IMNT is the surviving corporation and will continue the business of USSC. The name of the combined entity will change to USSC. S.E.C. Regulation S-X requires presentation of a pro forma income statement using the registrant's fiscal year end, unless unusual events affect the result. The fiscal year end of IMNT (i.e., the registrant) is June 30th, while USSC's is December 31st. USSC is the operating company, therefore its financial statements are more representative of combined operations. The audited financial statements for USSC'S latest fiscal year, December 31, 2002, is the basis for the pro forma statements. Results of IMNT operations for the same four quarters were determined from its quarterly filings. Pro forma financial statements have been prepared to show the results of operations as they would have been had the merger took place at the beginning of the latest USSC fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. The Balance Sheet represents the union of the two companies as at December 31, 2002. The legal, formal structure is that of IMNT, but it is a continuation of the business of USSC, the nominal acquiree. The name of the combined legal entity is therefore changed to USSC, to communicate the substance of the transaction to investors. The pro forma Statement of Operations is essentially that of USSC, with the income and expenses of IMNT included. The pooling of interests method of accounting for business combinations has been eliminated. The Financial Accounting Standards Board imposed the purchase method on July 1, 2002, the effective date of SFAS 141. The merger of USSC into IMNT will therefore be accounted for as a purchase transaction. SFAS 141 requires that the purchaser be identified. 22 The merger is to be accomplished by the issue of IMNT stock to USSC stockholders in exchange for 100% of their stock. The combined entity is re-named USSC. The result is that former USSC stockholders will be the majority owners of the combined entity. This is a reverse acquisition. USSC is the acquirer. However IMNT, by the legal nature of the transaction, is the nominal acquirer. The accounting treatment follows the legal form in reporting the equity accounts of the consolidated entity. Accordingly, IMNT equity accounts are continued and USSC's are eliminated. The equity accounts are modified appropriately for new shares issued. The purchase method generates goodwill, where purchase price exceeds fair value of the acquiree. However, the S.E.C. has ruled that no goodwill can be recognized in the special case of a publicly held shell company and a privately held nominal acquiree. This stems from the rule in SFAS 141 that prohibits recognition of goodwill where the value of the issuer's stock cannot be determined. The view is that there is substantial doubt about the true existence of goodwill in a dormant shell, and there may be unusual difficulty in valuing the transaction. No goodwill has been recognized. Earnings (loss) per share under the standard of SFAS 128 requires that basic earnings per share be calculated on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The shares outstanding are those of the legal entity, IMNT, which changes its name to USSC in the merger. The weighted average number of shares in the pro forma statements is calculated as if the merger had occurred at the beginning of the fiscal year. The calculation accommodates a 5 for 1 forward split of IMNT shares, which is a condition of the merger. The resulting pro forma Balance Sheet at December 31, 2002 indicates combined working capital of $1,179,693, which is the same as net worth (book value). The Statement of Operations for the 12 months ended December 31, 2003 shows a net loss of $1,168,967. This is updated with a Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2003, wherein the net loss is $246,416. Nonrecurring charges directly attributable to the merger transaction are not included in the pro forma statements. These charges for the 12 months following March 31, 2003 are forecast to be $125,000 (IMNT) and $ 125,000 (USSC), total $250,000. WHEN WE EXPECT THE MERGER TO CLOSE We expect completion of the merger as soon as practicable following approval of the merger by the shareholders of USSC at their special shareholders meeting and satisfaction of all other conditions to the merger, including IMNT's Registration Statement on S-4 being declared "effective" by the Securities and Exchange Commission. 22 OUR REASONS FOR THE MERGER We have had no operations since 1992. Since then, our management has been actively seeking potential business acquisitions or opportunities to enter into in an effort to commence business operations that will prove to be beneficial to us and our shareholders. In evaluating potential business opportunities, our management has considered various factors including financial requirements and the availability of additional financing, history of operations, the nature of present and expected competition, the quality and experience of management, and the potential for future growth, expansion and profits. After investigation and evaluation of USSC, our management has determined that the merger with USSC provides the best opportunity we have discovered to date. USSC's management has presented us with a business plan that is focused on commercializing a proprietary device for the protection of automobiles from theft. USSC's management intends to aggressively pursue its current business strategy and therefore our shareholders may be able to benefit from any related increased market activity in our common stock. There are, however, no assurances that USSC's management will be able to conduct profitable operations or that our shareholders will benefit from increased market activity in our common stock. Our board of directors has not obtained an independent opinion or other evaluation regarding the fairness of the terms of the merger due to the substantial costs in obtaining such an opinion or evaluation. USSC'S REASONS FOR THE MERGER The board of directors and the shareholders of USSC believe that the merger with us will provide USSC stockholders an opportunity to increase the liquidity of their shares. Specifically, assuming that the merger is consummated, USSC shareholders will own shares in a "public company" and, as such, will be entitled to sell their stock through the over-the-counter bulletin board. In reaching its decision to approve the merger, the USSC board of directors consulted with its financial and legal advisors and with management and considered a number of factors, including, without limitation, the following material factors: - -the strategic and financial alternatives available to USSC, including remaining a privately held company, - -the structure of the transaction, which is intended to qualify as a tax-free "reorganization" under Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the related sections thereunder, and - -USSC's desire to have its shares publicly traded by using IMNT as a vehicle to accomplish that desire without the time and expense typically associated with an IPO. This discussion of the information and factors considered by the USSC board of directors and shareholders in making their decision to approve the merger is not intended to be exhaustive but includes all material factors considered by the USSC board of directors and shareholders. 24 RECOMMENDATION OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND OUR MANAGEMENT Because our board of directors and management believes that the transactions contemplated by the merger are desirable and in the best interests of our shareholders, we were unanimous in recommending the merger. We believe that our shareholders will benefit through the strength, experience and knowledge of USSC's current and proposed executive management in the ongoing development of its business. THE USSC SPECIAL MEETING USSC will hold its special meeting of shareholders at its offices at 18271 West McDurmott, Suite F Irvine, California 92612 on _____________, 2003 at ______ a.m. local time. At that special meeting, the common stock and preferred stock shareholders will vote on the merger. RISK FACTORS The short and long term success of the combined company is subject to certain risks, many of which are substantial in nature. Because IMNT now has little to no operations other than searching for merger or acquisition candidate, the combined company will be subject to substantially the same risks as USSC prior to the merger. Therefore, the following risk factors focus mainly on the risks associated with USSC's business. You should consider carefully the following factors, in addition to other information contained in this information statement/prospectus. USSC AND IMNT BOTH HAVE A HISTORY OR OPERATING LOSSES AND MAY NEVER BECOME PROFITABLE WHICH COULD RESULT IN INVESTORS LOSING THEIR ENTIRE INVESTMENT. Both USSC and IMNT have incurred significant net operating losses since their formations. As of March 31, 2003, USSC had a deficit accumulated during the post development stage of $2,542,799. For the year ended December 31, 2001, USSC had a net loss of $1,153,495 compared to a net loss of $886,979 for the year ended December 31, 2002. For the three months ended March 31, 2003, USSC had a net loss of $244,440 compared to a net loss of $226,713 for the comparable period in 2002. From USSC's inception on August 18, 1994, to March 31, 2003, USSC had a net loss of approximately $3,283,691. The factors contributing to these significant operating losses include: - - marketing expenditures; - - expansion of research and development programs; - - regulatory compliance requirements; and - - implementation of programs to market products for distribution. As of March 31, 2003, IMNT had an accumulated deficit prior to the development stage of $151,332 and an accumulated deficit during the development stage of 25 $334,291. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2003, IMNT suffered a loss of approximately $16,634 compared to a net loss of $11,657 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002. From its inception on November 30, 1989 to March 31, 2003, IMNT suffered a net loss of approximately $485,623. The factors contributing to these significant operating losses include: - - costs and expenses associated with keeping IMNT a reporting issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and - - costs and expenses associated with identifying a potential acquisition or merger candidate. IMNT's, and after the merger, the combined company's, future success and ability to achieve profitability depends upon our ability to successfully operate USSC's business. The combined company may never achieve significant revenues or profitable operations. If the combined entity does not achieve profitable operations, investors in the combined entity (and former USSC and IMNT shareholders) could lose their entire investment. HOLDERS OF USSC PREFERRED STOCK, BOTH SERIES A AND SERIES B, HAVE THE RIGHT, UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, TO DEMAND THAT USSC REDEEM THE PREFERRED STOCK. A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF USSC PREFERRED SHAREHOLDERS EXERCISING THEIR REDEMPTION RIGHTS COULD FINANCIALLY CRIPPLE USSC. Under the terms and conditions of the private placement memoranda for the USSC Series A and Series B Preferred Stock, shareholders holding USSC Series A and Series B Preferred Shares have the right to tender their shares to USSC for redemption. Such redemption right begins 3 years after purchase of the preferred shares and continues until USSC's stock is eligible for quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board or equivalent quotation medium or other exchange. At June 30, 2003, USSC's redemption liability, assuming every USSC preferred shareholder with the right to redeem validly exercised such right, amounted to approximately $8,640,020. USSC does not have the resources to satisfy a significant number of redemption demands. If the number of redemption demands exceeds USSC's resources, USSC may be forced to cease its business operations and file for bankruptcy. As of July 24, 2003, USSC had received 2 requests for redemption. USSC is currently attempting to resolve the requests. Assuming that the merger is consummated and, thereafter, each USSC preferred share is converted into the allotted number of combined company common stock, the redemption liability will no longer be an issue. Neither USSC nor IMNT can guarantee that the redemption requests will not exceed USSC's resources and that, should that occur, USSC will be able to continue its current operations. USSC'S RECURRING LOSSES RAISE DOUBT ABOUT USSC'S ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN. USSC's financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that USSC will continue as a going concern. USSC's independent public accountant has issued his report dated April 10, 2003 that includes an explanatory paragraph stating that USSC's recurring losses and accumulated deficit, among other things, raise substantial doubt about USSC's ability to continue as a going concern. USSC's historical sales are limited and USSC has relied upon financing from the sale of equity securities to sustain operations. If the combined company is not able to generate revenues and if its ability to raise capital through the sale of its equity is hindered, investors in the combined entity could lose their entire investment. 26 THE PLAN OF MERGER INVOLVES SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION TO USSC AND IMNT SHAREHOLDERS. Assuming the merger is consummated and assuming conversion or exercise of all preferred equity of the combined company that is convertible into shares of common stock of the combined company, the pre-merger IMNT shareholders will own 12% of the outstanding combined company common stock. Assuming the merger is consummated and assuming conversion or exercise of all preferred equity of the combined company that is convertible into shares of common stock of the combined company, the pre-merger USSC shareholders will own 88% of the outstanding combined company common stock. IF THE COMBINED COMPANY SELLS ADDITIONAL EQUITY SECURITIES, IT MAY RESULT IN ADDITIONAL SHAREHOLDER DILUTION. The combined company may need to sell additional equity securities or obtain other forms of financing to fund its operations. Absent such additional financing, the combined company may find it necessary to postpone or cancel some or all of its planned business activities. This postponement could adversely affect the combined company's ability to conduct its business operations, generate future revenues and introduce its products into the proper distribution channels. Furthermore, additional financing may not be available, or, if available, may not be available on acceptable terms or in required amounts. If additional funds are raised by issuing shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock, those sales or conversion could result in further and possibly substantial dilution of the combined company's shareholders. Substantial dilution may make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares or may result in a lower price of the combined company's securities. As a result, the combined company shareholders may find it difficult or impossible to sell their shares, if freely tradeable, and, even if such sale is possible, may not be able to sell their shares for more than they paid. THE TRADING PRICE OF THE COMBINED COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK IS LIKELY TO BE VOLATILE WHICH COULD LEAD TO A SERIOUS DECLINE IN THE COMBINED COMPANY'S STOCK PRICE, LEADING TO SIGNIFICANT LOSS BY SHAREHOLDERS AND THE COMBINED COMPANY. The stock market in general and the prices of stock quoted on the over-the-counter bulletin board, specifically, has been subject to extreme volatility. The trading price of the combined company is likely to be subject to wide fluctuations in response to the quarter to quarter variations in the combined company's operating results, material announcements by the combined company or its competitors, governmental regulatory action, conditions in the industries in which they operate, or other events or factors, many of which will be beyond the combined company's control. The combined company's operating results in future quarters may be below the expectations of investors. There also may be certain periods where certain combined company shareholders find it prudent to attempt to sell large blocks of unrestricted stock. In such events, the price of the combined company common stock would likely decline, perhaps substantially. In addition, the stock market has historically experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Any of these factors either in isolation or in conjunction, could lead to investors losing their entire investment in us. 27 THE COMBINED COMPANY IS UNLIKELY TO PAY DIVIDENDS. Neither IMNT nor USSC has ever declared or paid cash dividends on its common stock and it is not anticipated that any cash dividends will be declared on the combined company's common stock in the foreseeable future. IF THE COMBINED COMPANY IS NOT SUCCESSFUL IN COMMERCIALIZING ITS PRODUCTS, IT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GENERATE ENOUGH INCOME TO COVER ITS OPERATING EXPENSES AND DEBT SERVICE. USSC was founded in August 1994 to develop, manufacture and market an entirely new anti-vehicle theft device. USSC patented its product under the PowerLockTM brand name in the United States under patent number 5,548,164 and internationally under patent number 6,351,209. PowerLockTM is an anti-theft starter circuit system and electronic circuit security module housing apparatus. PowerLockTM an anti-theft device prevents an automobile ignition system from being "hot-wired" or by-passed. PowerLockTM is installed in a motor vehicle with an electrically operable starter motor and starter solenoids, which are specially designed electromagnets. The PowerLockTM electronic circuit security module housing is mechanically adaptable and installed directly on to the existing starter solenoids, while a system access code entry device is installed in the vehicle cabin. PowerLockTM is a "sealed" electronic system which arms within 45 seconds of the ignition being turned off. PowerLockTM works by creating an open ignition circuit that disables the starting circuitry directly at the starter. If the system is tampered with the horn will sound for 60 seconds. The PowerLockTM system can also protect the contents of the vehicle by sounding the horn or a siren in case of a break-in. USSC has also developed a version of the PowerLockTM which can be installed onto motorcycles. The motorcycle application of PowerLockTM operates in the same manner as the automobile application of the PowerLockTM system. The motorcycle application of the PowerLockTM system is specially engineered to withstand greater levels of vibration, moisture exposure, and temperature fluctuations Until December 31, 2000, USSC was engaged principally in research and development activities, and from January 1, 2001 through March 31, 2003, market development activities related to the PowerLockTM. While marketing of the PowerLockTM has commenced, PowerLockTM has not achieved full commercialization, and product applications are in various stages of commercialization. As a result, PowerLockTM has been sold only in limited quantities and there can be no assurance that a significant market will develop for the PowerLockTM. There can be no assurance that the PowerLockTM will meet future customer performance standards or will offer sufficient price or performance advantages required to achieve commercial success. The combined company's failure to develop, manufacture and commercialize USSC's products on a timely and cost effective basis will prevent it from generating enough revenues to cover its operating expenses. In the event that the combined company fails to generate enough revenues, the combined company may be forced to liquidate its assets. 28 IF THE COMBINED COMPANY IS NOT ABLE TO GENERATE ACCEPTANCE IN THE AUTO INDUSTRY FOR ITS PRODUCTS, IT WILL NEGATIVELY AFFECT REVENUES. The combined company's future success in selling the PowerLockTM depends largely on acceptance of the technology by the auto industry and the ability of the combined company to educate auto industry professionals as well as customers about the advantages of the PowerLockTM and the reasons that the PowerLockTM is superior to other, better known anti-theft devices. Traditionally, auto anti-theft end users have been slow to adopt new technologies until their consistent effectiveness and economic value have been evidenced. Successful introduction of the combined company's products will also depend to a large extent on recommendations of prior users and testimonials from auto industry professionals. Although USSC's research data has shown that its PowerLockTM is superior to other anti-theft devices, there is no guarantee that end users or industry professionals will agree with USSC's data. There can be no assurance that the combined company will be able to demonstrate that the PowerLockTM is superior to other better known anti-theft devices. In the event that the compbined company is unable to generate sufficient interest and confidence in the PowerLockTM, the revenue generating ability of the combined company will suffer. IF THE COMBINED COMPANY CANNOT PROTECT ITS PROPRIETARY INFORMATION, IT MAY LEAD TO INCREASED COMPETITION AND EXPENSES AND DECREASED REVENUES. The combined company's success will depend, in part, on its ability to obtain patent protection for the PowerLockTM to preserve its trade secrets, and to operate without infringing the patent or other proprietary rights of others. USSC patented its product under the PowerLockTM brand name in the United States under patent number 5,548,164 and internationally under patent number 6,351,209. USSC also recently received a federal trademark for its product. Any patents issued to USSC or the combined company may not be held valid if subsequently challenged, others may claim rights in the patents and other proprietary technology owned by the combined company, and others may have developed or will develop similar products or technologies without violating any of the combined company's proprietary rights. The combined company will rely on the strength and protectability of the patents already obtained by USSC. In the event the combined company is unable to protect those patents and/or trademarks, the combined company's ability to sell the PowerLockTM product and earn revenues will be harmed. The combined company's inability to obtain patent protection, preserve its trade secrets or operate without infringing the proprietary rights of others, as well as its loss of any rights to technology that it now has or acquires in the future, could have a negative impact on its ability to maintain or increase sales revenues. Litigation, which could result in substantial cost to, and diversion of effort by, the combined company, may be necessary to enforce patents owned by the combined company, to defend the combined company against infringement claims made by others, or to determine the ownership, scope or validity of the proprietary rights of the combined company and others. An adverse outcome in any such litigation could subject the combined company to 29 significant liabilities to third parties, require it to seek licenses from third parties, and/or require it to cease using certain technology, any of which could increase its operating costs or negatively impact its ability to maintain or increase sales. The combined company may also become involved in interference proceedings declared by the United States Patent and Trademark Office in connection with one or more of USSC's or, in the future, the combined company's patents or patent applications to determine priority of invention. Any such proceeding could result in substantial cost to the combined company, as well as a possible adverse decision as to priority of invention of the patent or patent application involved. In addition, the combined company may become involved in reissue or reexamination proceedings in the patent office in connection with the scope or validity of its patents. Any such proceeding could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition, and an adverse outcome in such proceeding could result in a reduction of the scope of the claims of any such patents or such patents being declared invalid. In addition, from time to time, to protect its competitive position, the combined company may initiate reexamination proceedings in the patent office with respect to patents owned by others. Such proceedings could result in substantial cost to, and diversion of effort by, the combined company, and an adverse decision in such proceedings could increase the combined company's operating costs or negatively impact its ability to maintain or increase sales revenues. USSC relies and, in the future, the combined company will rely, on trade secrets and proprietary know how in the conduct of its operations. USSC uses employee and third party confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements to protect such trade secrets and know how. The combined company will take similar precautions. The obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such trade secrets or proprietary information may be breached by employees, consultants, advisors or others and the combined company may not have adequate remedies for any breach. In addition, the trade secrets or proprietary know how may otherwise become known or be independently developed or discovered by third parties. THE COMBINED COMPANY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN OR INCREASE SALES REVENUES DUE TO COMPETITION. USSC believes that the Power Lock(TM) product has a competitive advantage over other "competing" products. Power Lock(TM) approaches vehicle security from a different point of view and very different technology. When it comes to immobilizing the starter, Power Lock(TM) uses a protective device which covers the starter solenoid (the electrical portion) and makes it impossible to start the engine. In addition, the Power Lock(TM) becomes part of the starter and cannot be removed. Specific competitors include: Directed Electronics, maker of the Viper product; Clifford security systems; Omega security systems; Audiovox, maker of the Prestige product; Lojack, maker of the Lojack system; Magnadyne security systems; and Omega, which makes the Excaliber system. All of these competitors use standard relays, located under the dash or in the engine compartment that are hot-wired around. 30 Although USSC believes that the Power Lock(TM) is a superior product, all of USSC's larger competitors have substantially greater financial and technical resources, larger research and development staffs, and greater manufacturing and marketing capabilities than USSC and, in the future, the combined company. There can be no assurance that USSC's and, in the future, the combined company's, product will compete effectively against products produced by such competitors. THE COMBINED COMPANY'S LIMITED MANUFACTURING CAPACITY AND EXPERIENCE MAY HARM ITS ABILITY TO MANUFACTURE, MARKET AND DISTRIBUTE ITS PRODUCT AND, IN TURN, REVENUE PRODUCTION WILL BE HARMED. The combined company's success will depend, in part, on its ability to manufacture its products in significant quantities, with consistent quality, at acceptable costs and on a timely basis. The combined company has limited experience in high volume manufacturing. If the combined company is not able to manufature, market and distribute the Power Lock(TM) product in a cost effective and timely mannter, customer satisfaction and loyalty will be harmed resulting in a reduced capacity to earn revenues. IF THE TECHNOLOGY RELIED UPON BY THE COMBINED COMPANY FAILS TO REMAIN COMPETITIVE, IT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO INCREASE OR MAINTAIN SALES REVENUES. The Power Lock(TM) is based on USSC's, and in the future, the combined company's patented technology. The fields in which USSC, and in the future, the combined company, intend to sell the Power Lock(TM) are highly competitive and intensive research and development is always being undertaken by private and public enterprises to develop new and more effective anti-theft devices. Competitive products may be introduced by third parties and different or new technologies may become commercially available. The combined company's competitors may succeed in developing or marketing technologies or products that exhibit superior performance or are more commercially desirable or more cost effective than those developed and marketed by the combined company. Any of the foregoing could have a negative affect on the combined company's ability to maintain or increase sales revenues without improving its products, developing new products or reducing costs. If the combined company lacks the resources to improve its products and/or develop new products, the combined company's revenues will suffer. THE COMBINED COMPANY'S LIMITED EXPERIENCE IN MARKETING PRODUCTS MAY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON ITS ABILITY TO INCREASE SALES REVENUES. While the combined company's sales force has experience in marketing products to the auto anti-theft industry, the combined company has limited experience in marketing and selling products, in general. To market its products effectively, the combined company will be required to develop an expanded marketing and sales force that can effectively demonstrate the advantages of the Power Lock(TM). The Power Lock(TM) will also rely heavily on the recommendations of prior users. The combined company's future success will depend in part on the continued 31 relationships with auto makers and other industry professionals, its ability to enter into other similar arrangements, the continuing interest of the existing distributors in current and potential product applications and, eventually, the distributors' success in marketing and willingness to purchase the Power Lock(TM). If the combined company is unable to develop additional relationships or if existing USSC relationships fail to develop or are not sustained, the combined company will have difficulty generating revenues. LOSS OF KEY PERSONNEL BY THE COMBINED COMPANY WOULD FORCE THE COMBINED COMPANY TO EXPEND SIGNIFICANT TIME AND MONEY SEEKING REPLACEMENT PERSONNEL WHICH, IN TURN, WOULD HARM THE COMBINED COMPANY'S ABILITY TO EARN REVENUES. USSC's principal executive officer, James Cooper, has over 20 years of management experience. The loss of Mr. Cooper or other key personnel, or the failure of the combined company to attract and retain other skilled and experienced personnel on acceptable terms, would harm the combined company's ability to earn revenues. There is no key person insurance on Mr. Cooper. Mr. Cooper has an employment agreement with the company which expires on October 20, 2006, unless extended as provided for under the employment agreement and addendum No. 1 thereto. PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE CLAIMS RELATING TO THE COMBINED COMPANY'S PRODUCTS COULD LEAD TO LARGE INSURANCE PREMIUMS AND/OR EXPENSIVE LAWSUITS WHICH COULD, IN TURN, RESTRICT THE COMBINED COMPANY'S ABILITY TO EARN REVENUES. Products sold by the combined company may expose it to potential liability for personal injury or property damage claims relating to the use of those products, particularly if used in a manner not in conformity with the combined company's instructions. Although product liability claims historically have not had a material adverse effect on USSC, the combined company may be subject to or incur liability for such claims in the future. USSC does not currently maintain product liability insurance. The combined company may maintain product liability insurance in amounts that management deems commercially reasonable. However, a significant claim that is uninsured or partially insured could result in loss or deferral of revenues, diversion of resources, or damage to the combined company's reputation, any of which could harm the combined company's ability to earn revenues. THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGER TO SHAREHOLDERS ARE UNCERTAIN AND COULD BE ADVERSE. The material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger are uncertain and could be adverse. No tax opinion will be issued by IMNT's or USSC's tax advisors prior to the consummation of the merger as to the material federal income tax consequences of the merger. Each investor in IMNT and USSC should consult with their own tax advisor as to the potential state and federal tax consequences of the merger.

ALLOCATION OF COSTS AND EXPENSES The merger agreement provides that each party to the merger agreement will be responsible for paying its own expenses, including, without limitation, all attorneys' fees and costs and all accountants' fees and costs. APPRAISAL (DISSENTER'S) RIGHTS Under the Nevada Revised Statutes and the Delaware General Corporation Law, notwithstanding the approval of the merger by the holders of the requisite number of shares of capital stock of USSC and IMNT, a USSC shareholder and an IMNT shareholder can refuse the merger consideration and exercise his or her appraisal rights and obtain payment for the fair value of his or her capital stock by strictly following the requirements of the applicable law. A copy of the relevant sections the Nevada Revised Statutes is attached as Appendix B and a copy of the relevant sections of the Delaware General Corporation Law is attached as Appendix A. You are urged to review the applicable statute carefully as failure to comply may result in the loss of your appraisal rights. FAILURE TO STRICTLY COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE LAW MAY RESULT IN A FORFEITURE OF APPRAISAL RIGHTS. A beneficial shareholder of USSC or IMNT stock may assert dissenters' rights as to shares held on the shareholder's behalf only if the shareholder submits to USSC, if a USSC shareholder, and to IMNT, if an IMNT shareholder, the written consent of the shareholder of record to the dissent not later than the time the beneficial shareholder asserts dissenters' rights and the beneficial shareholder does so with respect to all shares of which he is the beneficial shareholder or over which he has the power to direct the vote. USSC APPRAISAL (DISSENTER'S) RIGHTS THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS NOT A COMPLETE STATEMENT OF THE LAW PERTAINING TO APPRAISAL RIGHTS UNDER THE NEVADA REVISED STATUTES AND IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY THE FULL TEXT OF THE NEVADA REVISED STATUTES ATTACHED HERETO AS APPENDIX B. YOU SHOULD READ APPENDIX B IN ITS ENTIRETY. A PERSON HAVING A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK HELD OF RECORD IN THE NAME OF ANOTHER PERSON, SUCH AS A BROKER OR NOMINEE, MUST ACT PROMPTLY TO CAUSE THE RECORD HOLDER TO FOLLOW THE STEPS SUMMARIZED BELOW PROPERLY AND IN A TIMELY MANNER TO PERFECT APPRAISAL RIGHTS. 36 USSC shareholders who wish to assert dissenters' rights: (i) must deliver to USSC, before the vote is taken, a written notice of the shareholder's intent to demand payment for his or her shares if the merger is effectuated and (ii) must not vote his or her shares in favor of merger. If the merger is authorized by the shareholders, USSC will send a written dissenters' notice to all shareholders who provided timely notice of their intent to demand payment for their shares and who did not vote their shares in favor of the merger, within 10 days after effectuation of the merger. The notice will: (a) state where the demand for payment must be sent and where and when certificates for USSC's shares are to be deposited; (b) supply a form for demanding payment; (c) set a date by which USSC must receive the demand for payment, which may not be less than 30 nor more than 60 days after the date the notice is delivered; and (d) be accompanied by a copy of Sections 92A.300 through 92A.500 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. A shareholder to whom a dissenter's notice is sent must, by the date set forth in the dissenter's notice: (a) demand payment; (b) certify whether the shareholder acquired beneficial ownership of the shares before the date of the first announcement to the news media or to the shareholders of the proposed terms of the merger; and (c) deposit his or her certificates in accordance with the terms of the dissenter's notice. Shareholders who do not demand payment or deposit their certificates where required, each by the date set forth in the dissenter's notice, will not be entitled to demand payment for dissenters' rights under Nevada law. Within 30 days after receipt a valid demand for payment, USSC will pay each dissenter who complied with the procedures described by the Nevada dissenters' rights statute the amount USSC estimates to be the fair value of the shares, plus accrued interest. The payment will be accompanied by: 37 (a) USSC's balance sheet as of the end of a fiscal year ending not more than 16 months before the date of payment, a statement of income for that fiscal year, a statement of changes in shareholders' equity for that fiscal year and the latest available interim financial statements, if any; (b) a statement of USSC's estimate of the fair value of the shares; (c) an explanation of how the interest was calculated; (d) a statement of the dissenters' rights to demand payment under Section 92A.480 of the Nevada Revised Statutes; and (e) a copy of Sections 92A.300 through 92A.500 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. USSC may elect to withhold payment from a dissenting shareholder if such shareholder became the beneficial owner of the shares on or after the date of the first announcement to the news media or to the shareholders of the proposed terms of the merger. To the extent USSC elects to withhold payment, after effectuating the merger, it will estimate the fair value of the shares, plus accrued interest, and will offer to pay this amount to each dissenter who agrees to accept it in full satisfaction of the shareholder's demand. USSC will send with its offer: (a) a statement of USSC's estimate of the fair value of the shares; (b) an explanation of how the interest was calculated; and (c) a statement of the dissenters' rights to demand payment pursuant to Section 92A.480 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. A dissenter may notify USSC in writing of the dissenter's own estimate of the fair value of the shares and interest due, and demand payment of his or her estimate, less USSC's fair value payment or offer for payment, or reject the offer for payment made by USSC and demand payment of the dissenter's shares and interest due if the dissenter believes that the amount paid or offered is less than the fair value of the dissenter's shares or that the interest due is incorrectly calculated. A dissenter waives his right to demand such payment unless the dissenter notifies USSC of his demand in writing within 30 days after USSC made or offered for payment for the dissenter's shares. If a demand for payment remains unsettled, USSC will commence a proceeding within 60 days after receiving the demand for payment and petition the court to determine the fair value of the shares and accrued interest. If USSCdoes not commence the proceeding within the 60-day period, it will be required to pay each dissenting stockholder whose demand remains unsettled the amount demanded. Each dissenter who is made a party to the proceeding is entitled to a judgment: 38 (a) for the amount, if any, by which the court finds the fair value of the dissenter's shares, plus interest, exceeds the amount paid by USSC; or (b) for the fair value, plus accrued interest, of the dissenter's after-acquired shares for which USSC elected to withhold payment pursuant to Nevada law. The court will determine all of the costs of the proceeding, including the reasonable compensation and expenses of any appraisers appointed by the court. The court will assess the costs against USSC, except that the court may assess costs against all or some of the dissenters, in the amounts the court finds equitable, to the extent that the court finds the dissenters acted arbitrarily, vexatiously or not in good faith in demanding payment. The court may also assess the fees and expenses of the counsel and experts for the respective parties, in amounts the court finds equitable: (a) against USSC and in favor of all dissenters if the court finds USSC did not substantially comply with the Nevada dissenters' rights statute; or (b) against either USSC or a dissenter in favor of any other party, if the court finds that the party against whom the fees and expenses are assessed acted arbitrarily, vexatiously or not in good faith with respect to the dissenters' rights provided under the Nevada dissenters' rights statute. If the court finds that the services of counsel for any dissenter were of substantial benefit to other dissenters similarly situated, and that the fees for those services should not be assessed against USSC, the court may award to those counsel reasonable fees to be paid out of the amounts awarded to the dissenters who were benefited. If a proceeding is commenced because USSC did not pay each dissenter who complied with the procedures described by the Nevada dissenters' rights statute the amount USSC estimated to be the fair value of the shares, plus accrued interest within 30 days after receipt a valid demand for payment, the court may assess costs against USSC, except that the court may assess costs against all or some of the dissenters who are parties to the proceeding, in amounts the court finds equitable, to the extent the court finds that such parties did not act in good faith in instituting the proceeding. The foregoing summary of the rights of dissenting shareholders of USSC does not purport to be a complete statement of the procedures to be followed by shareholders desiring to exercise any available dissenters' rights. The preservation and exercise of dissenters' rights require strict adherence to the applicable provisions of Nevada law, a copy of which is attached hereto as Appendix B. After completion of the merger, we will notify you of the date on which the merger was completed. 39 IMNT DISSENTER'S RIGHTS THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS NOT A COMPLETE STATEMENT OF THE LAW PERTAINING TO APPRAISAL RIGHTS UNDER THE DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW AND IS QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY THE FULL TEXT OF SECTION 262 WHICH IS ATTACHED TO HERETO AS APPENDIX A. YOU SHOULD READ APPENDIX A IN ITS ENTIRETY. EXCEPT WHERE THE CONTEXT REQUIRES OTHERWISE, ALL REFERENCES IN SECTION 262 AND IN THIS SUMMARY TO A "STOCKHOLDER" ARE TO THE RECORD HOLDER OF THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK AS TO WHICH APPRAISAL RIGHTS ARE ASSERTED. A PERSON HAVING A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK HELD OF RECORD IN THE NAME OF ANOTHER PERSON, SUCH AS A BROKER OR NOMINEE, MUST ACT PROMPTLY TO CAUSE THE RECORD HOLDER TO FOLLOW THE STEPS SUMMARIZED BELOW PROPERLY AND IN A TIMELY MANNER TO PERFECT APPRAISAL RIGHTS. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law, persons who hold shares of IMNT common stock who follow the procedures set forth in Section 262 will be entitled to have their shares of IMNT common stock appraised by the Delaware Court of Chancery and to receive payment of the 'fair value' of such shares, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger, together with a fair rate of interest, as determined by such court. Under Section 262, where notice of a merger is sent to stockholders, as in the case of the adoption of the merger agreement by written consent of a majority of IMNT's stockholders, IMNT, not less than 20 days prior to the effective date of the merger, must notify each of its stockholders entitled to appraisal rights that such appraisal rights are available and include in such notice a copy of Section 262. THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT SHALL CONSTITUTE SUCH NOTICE, AND THE APPLICABLE STATUTORY PROVISIONS ARE ATTACHED TO THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT AS APPENDIX A. A holder of shares of IMNT's common stock wishing to exercise such holder's appraisal rights must deliver to IMNT, before the effective date of the merger agreement, a written demand for the appraisal of their shares, and must signify that they are not in favor of the adoption of the merger agreement. A holder of shares of IMNT's common stock wishing to exercise such holder's appraisal rights must hold of record such shares on the date the written demand for appraisal is made and must continue to hold such shares of record through the effective time of the merger. A letter stating that the holder is against the adoption of the merger agreement will not in and of itself constitute a written demand for appraisal satisfying the requirements of Section 262. The demand must reasonably inform IMNT of the identity of the holder as well as the intention of the holder to demand an appraisal of the 'fair value' of the shares held by such holder. Only a holder of record of shares of IMNT common stock is entitled to assert appraisal rights for the shares of IMNT common stock registered in that holder's name. A demand for appraisal in respect of shares of IMNT common stock should be 40 executed by or on behalf of the holder of record, fully and correctly, as such holder's name appears on such holder's stock certificates, and must state that such person intends thereby to demand appraisal of such holder's shares of IMNT common stock in connection with the merger. If the shares of IMNT common stock are owned of record in a fiduciary capacity, such as by a trustee, guardian or custodian, execution of the demand should be made in that capacity, and if the shares of IMNT common stock are owned of record by more than one person, as in a joint tenancy and tenancy in common, the demand should be executed by or on behalf of all joint owners. An authorized agent, including two or more joint owners, may execute a demand for appraisal on behalf of a holder of record; however, the agent must identify the record owner or owners and expressly disclose the fact that in executing the demand, the agent is agent for such owner or owners. A record holder such as a broker who holds shares of IMNT's common stock as nominee for several beneficial owners may exercise appraisal rights with respect to the shares of IMNT common stock held for one or more beneficial owners while not exercising such rights with respect to the shares of IMNT common stock held for other beneficial owners; in such case, however, the written demand should set forth the number of shares of IMNT common stock as to which appraisal is sought and where no number of shares of IMNT common stock is expressly mentioned the demand will be presumed to cover all shares of IMNT common stock held in the name of the record owner. Stockholders who hold their shares of IMNT common stock in brokerage accounts or other nominee forms and who wish to exercise appraisal rights are urged to consult with their brokers to determine the appropriate procedures for the making of a demand for appraisal by such a nominee. ALL WRITTEN DEMANDS FOR APPRAISAL PURSUANT TO SECTION 262 SHOULD BE SENT OR DELIVERED TO IMNT AT 1661 LAKEVIEW CIRCLE, OGDEN, UTAH 84403, ATTENTION: CORPORATE SECRETARY. Within ten days after the effective time of the merger, the combined company must notify each holder of IMNT common stock who has complied with Section 262 of the date that the merger has become effective. Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger, the surviving corporation or any holder of IMNT common stock who has so complied with Section 262 and is entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 may file a petition in the Delaware Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the fair value of such holder's shares of IMNT common stock. The surviving corporation is under no obligation to and has no present intention to file such a petition. Accordingly, it is the obligation of the holders of IMNT common stock to initiate all necessary action to perfect their appraisal rights in respect of such shares of IMNT common stock within the time prescribed in Section 262. Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger, any holder of IMNT common stock common stock who has complied with the requirements for exercise of appraisal rights will be entitled, upon written request, to receive from the combined company a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares. Such statement must be mailed within ten days after a written request for the statement has been received by the combined company or within ten days after the expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisal, whichever is later. 41 If a petition for an appraisal is timely filed by a holder of shares of IMNT common stock and a copy of the petition is served upon the combined company, the combined company will then be obligated within 20 days to file with the Delaware Register in Chancery a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all stockholders who have demanded an appraisal of their shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached. After notice to such stockholders as required by the court, the Delaware Court of Chancery is empowered to conduct a hearing on such petition to determine those stockholders who have complied with Section 262 and who have become entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262. The Delaware Court of Chancery may require the holders of shares of IMNT common stock who demanded payment for their shares to submit their stock certificates to the Register in Chancery for notation on the certificate of the pendency of the appraisal proceeding; and if any stockholder fails to comply with such direction, the Delaware Court of Chancery may dismiss the proceedings as to such stockholder. After determining the holders of IMNT common stock entitled to appraisal, the Delaware Court of Chancery will appraise the 'fair value' of their shares of IMNT common stock, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value. Holders of IMNT common stock considering seeking appraisal should be aware that the fair value of their shares of IMNT common stock as so determined could be more than, the same as or less than the consideration they would receive in the merger if they did not seek appraisal of their shares of IMNT common stock and that investment banking opinions as to fairness from a financial point of view are not necessarily opinions as to fair value under Section 262. The Delaware Supreme Court has stated that "proof of value by any techniques or methods which are generally considered acceptable in the financial community and otherwise admissible in court" should be considered in the appraisal proceedings. In addition, Delaware courts have decided that the statutory appraisal remedy, depending on factual circumstances, may or may not be a dissenter's exclusive remedy. The court will also determine the amount of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amounts to be received by persons whose shares of IMNT common stock have been appraised. The costs of the action may be determined by the court and taxed upon the parties as the court deems equitable. The court may also order that all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any stockholder in connection with an appraisal, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and the fees and expenses of experts utilized in the appraisal proceeding, be charged pro rata against the value of all the shares entitled to be appraised. Any holder of shares of IMNT common stock who has duly demanded an appraisal in compliance with Section 262 will not, after the effective time of the merger, be entitled to vote the shares of IMNT common stock subject to such demand for any purpose or be entitled to the payment of dividends or other distributions on those shares of IMNT common stock (except dividends or other distributions payable to holders of record of IMNT common stock as of a record date prior to the effective time of the merger). If any stockholder who demands appraisal of such holder's shares of IMNT common stock under Section 262 fails to perfect, or effectively withdraws or loses, such holder's right to appraisal, the shares of IMNT common stock of such stockholder will be converted into the right to receive the merger consideration. A stockholder will fail to perfect, or effectively lose or 42 withdraw, such holder's right to appraisal if no petition for appraisal is filed within 120 days after the effective time of the merger, or if the stockholder delivers to the combined company a written withdrawal of such holder's demand for appraisal and an acceptance of the merger, except that any such attempt to withdraw made more than 60 days after the effective time of the merger will require the written approval of the combined company and, once a petition for appraisal is filed, the appraisal proceeding may not be dismissed as to any holder absent court approval. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE STEPS REQUIRED BY SECTION 262 OF THE DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW FOR PERFECTING APPRAISAL RIGHTS MAY RESULT IN THE LOSS OF SUCH RIGHTS. VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF USSC.

49 BUSINESS OF THE COMPANIES BUSINESS OF IMMUNOTECHNOLOGY CORPORATION ("IMNT") BUSINESS. IMNT was incorporated on November 30, 1989, in the state of Delaware. The Company's predecessor was LJC Corporation, a Utah corporation, organized on November 8, 1984 ("LJC"). On October 7, 1989, LJC acquired ImmunoTechnology Laboratories, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("ITL"), by means of a stock-for-stock exchange with the shareholder of ITL. As a result of this transaction, ITL became a wholly owned subsidiary of LJC. On October 10, 1989, LJC changed its name to ImmunoTechnology Laboratories, Inc. ("ITL-UT"). At a special meeting of the shareholders of ITL-UT, the shareholders approved a proposal to redomicile ITL-UT in the state of Delaware, by forming a Delaware corporation and merging ITL-UT into the Delaware corporation, and changing the its name to ImmunoTechnology Corporation. The merger was effective on December 21, 1989. As a result of the merger, ITL-UT no longer exists. ITL was formed for the purpose of engaging in the business of operating a medical test related laboratory. IMNT's only business has been the operation of ITL, whose operations were discontinued in 1992. Since discontinuing the operations of ITL and since the sale of IMNT's assets in August 2001, IMNT's management has been seeking potential business acquisition or opportunities to enter in an effort to recommence business operations. IMNT did not restrict its search for a business opportunity to any particular industry or geographical area and considered the possibility of engaging in essentially any business in any industry. The selection of a business opportunity in which to participate is complex and risky. Additionally, as IMNT had only limited resources, it was difficult to find good opportunities. There was no assurance that IMNT could identify a business opportunity which would ultimately prove to be beneficial to IMNT and its shareholders. The risks IMNT faced were further increased as a result of IMNT's lack of resources and IMNT's inability to provide a prospective business opportunity with significant capital. IMNT finally selected the potential business opportunity offered by the merger with USSC based on IMNTs business judgment. IMNT is a fully reporting company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). As such, IMNT is obligated to file with the Commission certain interim and periodic reports including an annual report containing audited financial statements. The report of IMNT's independent auditor at June 30, 2002, contains a going concern qualification as to IMNT's ability to continue as a going concern. Without the merger with USSC, IMNT did not believe that IMNT could continue to operate, as IMNT had no alternative source of capital. Even with the merger, there is substantial doubt about IMNT's ability to continue as a going concern, because USSC is also in need of additional funding in order to be able to continue. 50 EMPLOYEES. Other than its current officers, IMNT has no employees. FACILITIES. IMNT is currently using as its principal place of business the personal residence of its president and director located in Ogden, Utah. IMNT has no written agreement and pays no rent for the use of this facility. Following the consummation of the merger with USSC, we expect our operations to be conducted through USSC's offices in California. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. None. MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK AND RELATED MATTERS. IMNT's common stock is eligible for quotation on the over-the-counter bulletin board maintained by the NASD. Holders of Common Stock. As of July 24, 2003, there were approximately 50 holders of record of IMNT's common stock. Immediately following the completion of the merger, it is expected that there will be approximately 730 holders of record of combined company common stock (assuming no USSC and no IMNT shareholders exercise their dissenters' rights). Dividends. IMNT has not declared any cash dividends on its common stock in the last two fiscal years or at any time thereafter. BUSINESS OF ULTIMATE SECURITY SYSTEMS CORPORATION ("USSC") BUSINESS. All information with respect to USSC's business activities has been provided by the management of USSC and is presented herein without independent verification. USSC has represented that the information is accurate and complete in all material respects. USSC's executive offices are located at 18271 West McDurmott, Suite F, Irvine, California 92614 and the telephone number is 800-689-8004. USSC was incorporated in August 1994 in the state of Nevada to develop and commercialize an automobile anti-theft device. USSC's activities to date have included raising capital and developing and selling prototype devices through multiple distribution channels. THE POWERLOCK PRODUCT. Powerlock(TM) is a "sealed" electronic system which arms within 45 seconds of the ignition being turned off. Powerlock(TM) works by creating an open ignition circuit that disables the starting circuitry directly at the starter. If the system is tampered with the horn will sound for 60 seconds. The system can also protect the contents of the vehicle by sounding the horn or a siren in case of a break-in. The product is an adaptable security module with microprocessors that prevents electrical current from being delivered through the vehicle's starter solenoid. An enhanced version was introduced by USSC in early 2002, allowing USSC to market both the basic unit and the new "proximity transponder" version. Once the enhanced version is wired into a vehicle's power door locks, the customer can automatically unlock the vehicle's doors without pressing any buttons. This gives the customer not only the security feature of the basic version, but also hands-free convenience. 51 USSC has also developed a version which can be installed onto motorcycles. The motorcycle application operates in the same manner as the automobile application, however, the system is specially engineered to withstand greater levels of vibration, moisture exposure, and temperature fluctuations. SALES AND DISTRIBUTION. USSC is attempting to penetrate two distinct markets: the traditional "mobile electronics" market segment and the non-traditional "bolt-on" segment. With this sales and distribution strategy in place, USSC believes it will be able to seriously penetrate the market and increase sales provided it can find additional financing. In September of 2000, Ultimate began product shipments, sales channel development and retail dealer acquisition activities. From then until now, both retail and wholesale price points have been verified. To strengthen the sales operation, USSC hired a 25-year sales and marketing veteran of the mobile electronic industry in July 2002. There are now 35 sales representatives, from 18 independent manufacturers' sales representative firms, covering about 80 percent of the United States market in the mobile electronics market segment. In June of 2002, USSC added another marketing veteran for the "bolt-on" market segment. There are now over 50 independent manufacturers' sales representatives in this market segment. COMPETITION. Powerlock(TM) approaches vehicle security from a different point of view and different technology from its competitors. When it comes to immobilizing the starter, the Powerlock(TM) uses a protective device which covers the starter solenoid (the electrical portion) and makes it impossible to start the engine. In addition, the Powerlock(TM) becomes part of the starter and USSC believes the unit cannot be removed. Specific competitors include: Directed Electronics, maker of the Viper product; Clifford security systems; Omega security systems; Audiovox, maker of the Prestige product; Lojack, maker of the Lojack system; Magnadyne security systems; and Omega, which makes the Excaliber system. All of these competitors use standard relays, located under the dash or in the engine compartment that are hot-wired around. Powerlock(TM) is a digitally encoded proprietary system that USSC believes is impossible to hot-wire around. USSC also believes that it is impossible to code grab or reproduce the digital encryption. USSC believes that only Powerlock(TM) features a patented, fault-proof design that cannot be circumvented. Even if a thief removes the vehicle's battery, cuts or jumps any electrical wires or removes the system control unit, the vehicle still won't start. Management believes that the Powerlock(TM) product can compete and surpass the competition because Powerlock(TM) is a "breakthrough" product in that it is not vulnerable to "hot wiring" as are all most other vehicle security products. Powerlock(TM), which arms passively, will not allow a casual or professional thief to "hot-wire" the vehicle. Because the vehicle cannot be started, it cannot be hot-wired by simply circumventing the device. By contrast, competitive products that claim immunity to theft all can be hot-wired. USSC believes that even those competing products that claim to immobilize the engine, or kill the ignition switch, are vulnerable to professional thieves who can "hot-wire" a vehicle in seconds. 52 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. The Powerlock(TM) is patented both in the United States (domestic patent #5,548,164) and overseas (international patent #6,351,209). USSC has also obtained a federal trademark for the name "Powerlock". MANUFACTURING. The following companies provide raw materials and manufacturing services to USSC: Benson Precision Machining; Digi-Key; Mammoth Products, Inc.; Mouser Electronics; Grizzle & Hunter Plastic, LLC. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development of the Powerlock(TM) is essentially complete, although USSC intends to continue to make improvements. Research and development expenses in 2002 and 2001 were approximately $12,500 and $42,000, respectively. USSC's management estimates that expenses for research and development in the next twelve months will be approximately $98,000 which expenses will encompass engineering fees, product improvements, new product development. EMPLOYEES. As of June 30, 2003, USSC had 5 full time and 1 part time employees. James Cooper entered into an employment agreement with USSC. Other than Mr. Cooper, all other employees are "at-will". USSC primarily uses independent contractors for sales and marketing services. SALES AND MARKETING. To date, USSC's sales and marketing campaign has consisted of a public relations campaign supported by targeted advertising, point-of-purchase and sales collateral materials. USSC believes that the public relations campaign in that potential customers have visited USSC's website. Moreover, USSC has received telephone calls to its toll-free number. USSC has also advertised in magazines distributed by the Mobile Electronics Retailer Association and the Specialty Equipment Market Association. Such advertisements have generated dealer inquiries. Following the consummation of the merger, USSC will seek funding to expand its sales and marketing activities. There is no guarantee that such funding will be available. Assuming it is available, the sales and marketing plan will focus on four areas: (i) an enhanced integrated advertising and public relations program; (ii) additions to the USSC sales staff to strengthen the dealer network and manufacturers sales representative network; (iii) increased penetration of retailers with all products; and (iv) the introduction of products for the heavy construction equipment market and the motorcycle market. FACILITIES. USSC's executive offices are located at 18271 West McDurmott, Suite F, Irvine, California 92614 and the telephone number is 800-689-8004. USSC currently leases those facilities for $2,608 a month pursuant to a lease with a 3 year term. 53 USSC's assembly facilities are located at 18226 McDurmott, Suite C, Irvine, California 92614. USSC leases its assembly facilities for $1,560 a month pursuant to a 2 year lease. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. None. MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK AND RELATED MATTERS. USSC's stock is not publicly traded nor is USSC's stock eligible for quotation on the over-the-counter bulletin board maintained by the NASD or any other electronic quotation system. DIVIDENDS. USSC has not declared any cash dividends on its common stock in the last two fiscal years or at any time thereafter. HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK. As of July 24, 2003, there were approximately 405 holders of record of USSC's common stock. Pursuant to the merger, all USSC shareholders will become IMNT shareholders. Holders of Preferred Stock. As of July 24, 2003, there were approximately 364 holders of record of USSC's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 266 holders of USSC's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the merger, all USSC shareholders will become IMNT shareholders. The certificates of designations for the Series A and Series B preferred stock are attached hereto as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively. Under the terms and conditions of the private placement memoranda for the USSC Series A and Series B Preferred Stock, shareholders holding USSC Series A and Series B Preferred Shares have the right to tender their shares to USSC for redemption. Such redemption right begins 3 years after purchase of the preferred shares and continues until USSC's stock is eligible for quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board or equivalent quotation medium or other exchange. At June 30, 2003, USSC's redemption liability, assuming every USSC preferred shareholder with the right to redeem validly exercised such right, amounted to approximately $8,640,020. As of July 24, 2003, USSC had received 2 requests for redemption. USSC MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION FOLLOWING THE CONSUMMATION OF THE MERGER The following discussion and analysis of USSC's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this information statement/prospectus. YEAR-END RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 2002 COMPARED TO 2001. During the year ended December 31, 2002, USSC had revenues of $89,588, compared to $102,541 for the year ended December 31, 2001. The decrease in revenues was due to the loss of a sales manager in 2002 and the inexperience of USSC's sales staff. Cost of revenue was $55,025 in 2002, compared to cost of revenue of $59,854 in 2001. 54 Research and development cost, specifically, engineering costs, decreased from $41,797 in 2001 to $12,565 in 2002 due to a reduction in research activities undertaken related to the Powerlock(TM). Specifically, most of the refinement of the Powerlock(TM) product occurred in 2001. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $904,585 in 2001 to $756,973 in 2002. This decrease in 2002 was the result of reduced costs associated with public relations, office expenses, trade shows and other selling expenses. However, the following costs increased in 2002 from 2001: rent and office expenses. Product Development costs decreased from $314,765 in 2001 to $162,697 primarily due to USSC's new marketing manager setting fewer milestones for brand recognition during his break-in period. As a result of the foregoing, the net loss decreased from $1,153,495 in 2001 to $886,979 in 2002. YEAR-END LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Historically, USSC has been unable to finance its operations from cash flows from operating activities. As of December 31, 2002, USSC had cash and cash equivalents of $1,270,530. During 2002 and 2003, USSC obtained financing through the sale of its preferred stock, but has no other plans for its continued financing. USSC believes based on its current budget and sales that it will be able to pay its expenses for the next year. Cash flows provided by financing activities increased from $513,022 during 2001 to $1,531,840 during 2002. The cash from financing activities in 2001 and 2002 resulted from the sale of USSC preferred stock, both Series A and Series B. The financial statements of USSC for 2002 have been prepared on the assumption that it will continue as a going concern. USSC's independent public accountants have issued their report dated April 10, 2003, that includes an explanatory paragraph stating that USSC's recurring losses, among other things, raise substantial doubt about USSC's ability to continue as a going concern. USSC FIRST-QUARTER RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002. During the three months ended March 31, 2003, USSC had revenues of $7,428, compared to $26,351 for the comparable three-month period in 2002. The decrease in sales was due to uncertain geopolitical and economic conditions triggered, in part, by adverse political events as automobile aftermarket dealerships were reluctant to add to inventory. Cost of sales was $3,462 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, compared to $16,546 for the same period in 2002. Cost of revenues as a percentage of sales was 46.6% during the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to 62.8% during the corresponding period in 2002. This decrease in cost of sales reflected both a decrease in products manufactured for sale as well as the results of a labor training initiative. The training improved the manufacturing cost structure. 55 Total selling expenses were $156,012 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003, compared to $169,318 for the three month period ended March 31, 2002. The relatively static selling expenses reflected a continuation of the same level of selling activity. An increased emphasis on trade shows was offset by a reduction in technical representative salaries. General and administrative expenses were $91,642 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003, compared to $66,483 for the comparable period in 2002. The increase was primarily due to labor costs for engineering changes to circuit boards of the anti-theft device. During the three months ended March 31, 2003, USSC had a net loss of $244,440 compared to a net loss of $226,713 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase in the net loss was attributable primarily to a decrease in sales. USSC FIRST-QUARTER LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Historically, USSC has been unable to finance its operations from cash flows from operating activities. As of March 31, 2003, it had cash of $1,279,588. USSC intends to carefully control its use of cash for the balance of 2003. As a long-term matter, USSC will require additional financing to maintain operations. USSC believes based on its current cash reserves and its current budget and sales that it will be able to pay its expenses for the next year. In the first three months of 2003, USSC had a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $9,058 compared to a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents in the same period of 2002 of $25,520. The increase in cash was the result of a sale of preferred stock, the net proceeds of which was in excess of cash used in operating activities. USSC decreased its cash flows used in operations from $270,744 in the first three months of 2002 to $250,476 in the same period in 2003 due to the operating loss being more than offset by higher receivable collections, reduction in inventory purchases and stabilization of accrued interest. Cash flows provided by financing activities increased from $245,224 during the first three months of 2002 to $259,534 in the same period in 2003. The cash flows from financing activities during the first three months of 2003 resulted from the sale of USSC Series B preferred stock.

APPRAISAL RIGHTS. TITLE 8 CORPORATIONS CHAPTER 1. GENERAL CORPORATION LAW SUBCHAPTER IX. MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR CONVERSION ss.262. Appraisal rights. (a) Any stockholder of a corporation of this State who holds shares of stock on the date of the making of a demand pursuant to subsection (d) of this section with respect to such shares, who continuously holds such shares through the effective date of the merger or consolidation, who has otherwise complied with subsection (d) of this section and who has neither voted in favor of the merger or consolidation nor consented thereto in writing pursuant to ss. 228 of this title shall be entitled to an appraisal by the Court of Chancery of the fair value of the stockholder's shares of stock under the circumstances described in subsections (b) and (c) of this section. As used in this section, the word "stockholder" means a holder of record of stock in a stock corporation and also a member of record of a nonstock corporation; the words "stock" and "share" mean and include what is ordinarily meant by those words and also membership or membership interest of a member of a nonstock corporation; and the words "depository receipt" mean a receipt or other instrument issued by a depository representing an interest in one or more shares, or fractions thereof, solely of stock of a corporation, which stock is deposited with the depository. (b) Appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation in a merger or consolidation to be effected pursuant to ss. 251 (other than a merger effected pursuant to ss. 251(g) of this title), ss. 252, ss. 254, ss. 257, ss. 258,ss.263 orss.264 of this title: (1) Provided, however, that no appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock, which stock, or depository receipts in respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine the stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting of stockholders to act upon the agreement of merger or consolidation, were either (i) listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 holders; and further provided that no appraisal rights shall be available for any shares of stock of the constituent corporation surviving a merger if the merger did not require for its approval the vote of the stockholders of the surviving corporation as provided in subsection (f) of ss. 251 of this title. (2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1) of this subsection, appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation if the holders thereof are required by the terms of an agreement of merger or consolidation pursuant to ss.ss. 251, 252, 254, 257, 258, 263 and 264 of this title to accept for such stock anything except: 60 a. Shares of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from such merger or consolidation, or depository receipts in respect thereof; b. Shares of stock of any other corporation, or depository receipts in respect thereof, which shares of stock (or depository receipts in respect thereof) or depository receipts at the effective date of the merger or consolidation will be either listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or held of record by more than 2,000 holders; c. Cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in the foregoing subparagraphs a. and b. of this paragraph; or d. Any combination of the shares of stock, depository receipts and cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in the foregoing subparagraphs a., b. and c. of this paragraph. (3) In the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Delaware corporation party to a merger effected under ss. 253 of this title is not owned by the parent corporation immediately prior to the merger, appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of the subsidiary Delaware corporation. (c) Any corporation may provide in its certificate of incorporation that appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of its stock as a result of an amendment to its certificate of incorporation, any merger or consolidation in which the corporation is a constituent corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the corporation. If the certificate of incorporation contains such a provision, the procedures of this section, including those set forth in subsections (d) and (e) of this section, shall apply as nearly as is practicable. (d) Appraisal rights shall be perfected as follows: (1) If a proposed merger or consolidation for which appraisal rights are provided under this section is to be submitted for approval at a meeting of stockholders, the corporation, not less than 20 days prior to the meeting, shall notify each of its stockholders who was such on the record date for such meeting with respect to shares for which appraisal rights are available pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) hereof that appraisal rights are available for any or all of the shares of the constituent corporations, and shall include in such notice a copy of this section. Each stockholder electing to demand the appraisal of such stockholder's shares shall deliver to the corporation, before the taking of the vote on the merger or consolidation, a written demand for appraisal of such stockholder's shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such stockholder's shares. A proxy or vote against the merger or consolidation shall not constitute such a demand. A stockholder electing to take such action must do so by a separate written demand 61 as herein provided. Within 10 days after the effective date of such merger or consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation shall notify each stockholder of each constituent corporation who has complied with this subsection and has not voted in favor of or consented to the merger or consolidation of the date that the merger or consolidation has become effective; or (2) If the merger or consolidation was approved pursuant to ss. 228 or ss. 253 of this title, then either a constituent corporation before the effective date of the merger or consolidation or the surviving or resulting corporation within 10 days thereafter shall notify each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal rights of the approval of the merger or consolidation and that appraisal rights are available for any or all shares of such class or series of stock of such constituent corporation, and shall include in such notice a copy of this section. Such notice may, and, if given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, shall, also notify such stockholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation. Any stockholder entitled to appraisal rights may, within 20 days after the date of mailing of such notice, demand in writing from the surviving or resulting corporation the appraisal of such holder's shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such holder's shares. If such notice did not notify stockholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation, either (i) each such constituent corporation shall send a second notice before the effective date of the merger or consolidation notifying each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation that are entitled to appraisal rights of the effective date of the merger or consolidation or (ii) the surviving or resulting corporation shall send such a second notice to all such holders on or within 10 days after such effective date; provided, however, that if such second notice is sent more than 20 days following the sending of the first notice, such second notice need only be sent to each stockholder who is entitled to appraisal rights and who has demanded appraisal of such holder's shares in accordance with this subsection. An affidavit of the secretary or assistant secretary or of the transfer agent of the corporation that is required to give either notice that such notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to receive either notice, each constituent corporation may fix, in advance, a record date that shall be not more than 10 days prior to the date the notice is given, provided, that if the notice is given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the record date shall be such effective date. If no record date is fixed and the notice is given prior to the effective date, the record date shall be the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the notice is given. (e) Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation or any stockholder who has complied with subsections (a) and (d) hereof and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal rights, may file a petition in the Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the value of the stock of all such stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time within 60 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, any stockholder shall have the right to 62 withdraw such stockholder's demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the merger or consolidation. Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, any stockholder who has complied with the requirements of subsections (a) and (d) hereof, upon written request, shall be entitled to receive from the corporation surviving the merger or resulting from the consolidation a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not voted in favor of the merger or consolidation and with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares. Such written statement shall be mailed to the stockholder within 10 days after such stockholder's written request for such a statement is received by the surviving or resulting corporation or within 10 days after expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisal under subsection (d) hereof, whichever is later. (f) Upon the filing of any such petition by a stockholder, service of a copy thereof shall be made upon the surviving or resulting corporation, which shall within 20 days after such service file in the office of the Register in Chancery in which the petition was filed a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all stockholders who have demanded payment for their shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached by the surviving or resulting corporation. If the petition shall be filed by the surviving or resulting corporation, the petition shall be accompanied by such a duly verified list. The Register in Chancery, if so ordered by the Court, shall give notice of the time and place fixed for the hearing of such petition by registered or certified mail to the surviving or resulting corporation and to the stockholders shown on the list at the addresses therein stated. Such notice shall also be given by 1 or more publications at least 1 week before the day of the hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation published in the City of Wilmington, Delaware or such publication as the Court deems advisable. The forms of the notices by mail and by publication shall be approved by the Court, and the costs thereof shall be borne by the surviving or resulting corporation. (g) At the hearing on such petition, the Court shall determine the stockholders who have complied with this section and who have become entitled to appraisal rights. The Court may require the stockholders who have demanded an appraisal for their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to submit their certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any stockholder fails to comply with such direction, the Court may dismiss the proceedings as to such stockholder. (h) After determining the stockholders entitled to an appraisal, the Court shall appraise the shares, determining their fair value exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger or consolidation, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the amount determined to be the fair value. In determining such fair value, the Court shall take into account all relevant factors. In determining the fair rate of interest, the Court may consider all relevant factors, including the rate of interest which the surviving or resulting corporation would have had to pay to borrow money during the pendency of the proceeding. Upon application by the surviving or resulting corporation or by any stockholder entitled to participate in the appraisal proceeding, the Court may, in its discretion, permit discovery or other pretrial proceedings and may proceed to trial upon the appraisal prior 63 to the final determination of the stockholder entitled to an appraisal. Any stockholder whose name appears on the list filed by the surviving or resulting corporation pursuant to subsection (f) of this section and who has submitted such stockholder's certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery, if such is required, may participate fully in all proceedings until it is finally determined that such stockholder is not entitled to appraisal rights under this section. (i) The Court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the shares, together with interest, if any, by the surviving or resulting corporation to the stockholders entitled thereto. Interest may be simple or compound, as the Court may direct. Payment shall be so made to each such stockholder, in the case of holders of uncertificated stock forthwith, and the case of holders of shares represented by certificates upon the surrender to the corporation of the certificates representing such stock. The Court's decree may be enforced as other decrees in the Court of Chancery may be enforced, whether such surviving or resulting corporation be a corporation of this State or of any state. (j) The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Court and taxed upon the parties as the Court deems equitable in the circumstances. Upon application of a stockholder, the Court may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all the shares entitled to an appraisal. (k) From and after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, no stockholder who has demanded appraisal rights as provided in subsection (d) of this section shall be entitled to vote such stock for any purpose or to receive payment of dividends or other distributions on the stock (except dividends or other distributions payable to stockholders of record at a date which is prior to the effective date of the merger or consolidation); provided, however, that if no petition for an appraisal shall be filed within the time provided in subsection (e) of this section, or if such stockholder shall deliver to the surviving or resulting corporation a written withdrawal of such stockholder's demand for an appraisal and an acceptance of the merger or consolidation, either within 60 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation as provided in subsection (e) of this section or thereafter with the written approval of the corporation, then the right of such stockholder to an appraisal shall cease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no appraisal proceeding in the Court of Chancery shall be dismissed as to any stockholder without the approval of the Court, and such approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Court deems just. 64 (l) The shares of the surviving or resulting corporation to which the shares of such objecting stockholders would have been converted had they assented to the merger or consolidation shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares of the surviving or resulting corporation.

A stockholder who is entitled to dissent and obtain payment pursuant to NRS 92A.300 to 92A.500, inclusive, may not challenge the corporate action creating his entitlement unless the action is unlawful or fraudulent with respect to him or the domestic corporation. SECTION 92A.390. LIMITATIONS ON RIGHT OF DISSENT: STOCKHOLDERS OF CERTAIN CLASSES OR SERIES; ACTION OF STOCKHOLDERS NOT REQUIRED FOR PLAN OF MERGER. 1. There is no right of dissent with respect to a plan of merger or exchange in favor of stockholders of any class or series which, at the record date fixed to determine the stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting at which the plan of merger or exchange is to be acted on, were either listed on a national securities exchange, included in the national market system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or held by at least 2,000 stockholders of record, unless: (a) The articles of incorporation of the corporation issuing the shares provide otherwise; or (b) The holders of the class or series are required under the plan of merger or exchange to accept for the shares anything except: 68 (1) Cash, owner's interests or owner's interests and cash in lieu of fractional owner's interests of: (I) The surviving or acquiring entity; or (II) Any other entity which, at the effective date of the plan of merger or exchange, were either listed on a national securities exchange, included in the national market system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or held of record by a least 2,000 holders of owner's interests of record; or (2) A combination of cash and owner's interests of the kind described in sub-subparagraphs (I) and (II) of subparagraph (1) of paragraph (b). 2.

SECTION 92A.400. LIMITATIONS ON RIGHT OF DISSENT: ASSERTION AS TO PORTIONS ONLY TO SHARES REGISTERED TO STOCKHOLDER; ASSERTION BY BENEFICIAL STOCKHOLDER. 1. A stockholder of record may assert dissenter's rights as to fewer than all of the shares registered in his name only if he dissents with respect to all shares beneficially owned by any one person and notifies the subject corporation in writing of the name and address of each person on whose behalf he asserts dissenter's rights. The rights of a partial dissenter under this subsection are determined as if the shares as to which he dissents and his other shares were registered in the names of different stockholders. 2. A beneficial stockholder may assert dissenter's rights as to shares held on his behalf only if: (a) He submits to the subject corporation the written consent of the stockholder of record to the dissent not later than the time the beneficial stockholder asserts dissenter's rights; and (b) He does so with respect to all shares of which he is the beneficial stockholder or over which he has power to direct the vote. SECTION 92A.410. NOTIFICATION OF STOCKHOLDERS REGARDING RIGHT OF DISSENT. 1.

If the corporate action creating dissenters' rights is taken by written consent of the stockholders or without a vote of the stockholders, the domestic corporation shall notify in writing all stockholders entitled to assert dissenters' rights that the action was taken and send them the dissenter's notice described in NRS 92A.430. SECTION 92A.420. PREREQUISITES TO DEMAND FOR PAYMENT FOR SHARES. 1. If a proposed corporate action creating dissenters' rights is submitted to a vote at a stockholders' meeting, a stockholder who wishes to assert dissenter's rights: (a) Must deliver to the subject corporation, before the vote is taken, written notice of his intent to demand payment for his shares if the proposed action is effectuated; and (b) Must not vote his shares in favor of the proposed action. 2. A stockholder who does not satisfy the requirements of subsection 1 and NRS 92A.400 is not entitled to payment for his shares under this chapter. SECTION 92A.430. DISSENTER'S NOTICE: DELIVERY TO STOCKHOLDERS ENTITLED TO ASSERT RIGHTS; CONTENTS. 1. If a proposed corporate action creating dissenters' rights is authorized at a stockholders' meeting, the subject corporation shall deliver a written dissenter's notice to all stockholders who satisfied the requirements to assert those rights. 2. The dissenter's notice must be sent no later than 10 days after the effectuation of the corporate action, and must: (a) State where the demand for payment must be sent and where and when certificates, if any, for shares must be deposited; (b) Inform the holders of shares not represented by certificates to what extent the transfer of the shares will be restricted after the demand for payment is received; (c) Supply a form for demanding payment that includes the date of the first announcement to the news media or to the stockholders of the terms of the proposed action and requires that the person asserting dissenter's rights certify whether or not he acquired beneficial ownership of the shares before that date; (d) Set a date by which the subject corporation must receive the demand for payment, which may not be less than 30 nor more than 60 days after the date the notice is delivered; and (e) Be accompanied by a copy of NRS 92A.300 to 92A.500, inclusive. SECTION 92A.440. DEMAND FOR PAYMENT AND DEPOSIT OF CERTIFICATES; RETENTION OF RIGHTS OF STOCKHOLDER. 70 1. A stockholder to whom a dissenter's notice is sent must: (a) Demand payment; (b) Certify whether he acquired beneficial ownership of the shares before the date required to be set forth in the dissenter's notice for this certification; and (c) Deposit his certificates, if any, in accordance with the terms of the notice. 2. The stockholder who demands payment and deposits his certificates, if any, before the proposed corporate action is taken retains all other rights of a stockholder until those rights are canceled or modified by the taking of the proposed corporate action. 3. The stockholder who does not demand payment or deposit his certificates where required, each by the date set forth in the dissenter's notice, is not entitled to payment for his shares under this chapter. SECTION 92A.450. UNCERTIFICATED SHARES: AUTHORITY TO RESTRICT TRANSFER AFTER DEMAND FOR PAYMENT; RETENTION OF RIGHTS OF STOCKHOLDER. 1. The subject corporation may restrict the transfer of shares not represented by a certificate from the date the demand for their payment is received. 2.

SECTION 92A.460. PAYMENT FOR SHARES: GENERAL REQUIREMENTS. 1. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 92A.470, within 30 days after receipt of a demand for payment, the subject corporation shall pay each dissenter who complied with NRS 92A.440 the amount the subject corporation estimates to be the fair value of his shares, plus accrued interest. The obligation of the subject corporation under this subsection may be enforced by the district court: (a) Of the county where the corporation's registered office is located; or (b) At the election of any dissenter residing or having its registered office in this state, of the county where the dissenter resides or has its registered office. The court shall dispose of the complaint promptly. 2. The payment must be accompanied by: (a) The subject corporation's balance sheet as of the end of a fiscal year ending not more than 16 months before the date of payment, a statement of income for that year, a statement of changes in the stockholders' equity for that year and the latest available interim financial statements, if any; 71 (b) A statement of the subject corporation's estimate of the fair value of the shares; (c) An explanation of how the interest was calculated; (d) A statement of the dissenter's rights to demand payment under NRS 92A.480; and (e) A copy of NRS 92A.300 to 92A.500, inclusive. SECTION 92A.470. PAYMENT FOR SHARES: SHARES ACQUIRED ON OR AFTER DATE OF DISSENTER'S NOTICE. 1. A subject corporation may elect to withhold payment from a dissenter unless he was the beneficial owner of the shares before the date set forth in the dissenter's notice as the date of the first announcement to the news media or to the stockholders of the terms of the proposed action. 2. To the extent the subject corporation elects to withhold payment, after taking the proposed action, it shall estimate the fair value of the shares, plus accrued interest, and shall offer to pay this amount to each dissenter who agrees to accept it in full satisfaction of his demand. The subject corporation shall send with its offer a statement of its estimate of the fair value of the shares, an explanation of how the interest was calculated, and a statement of the dissenters' right to demand payment pursuant to NRS 92A.480. SECTION 92A.480. DISSENTER'S ESTIMATE OF FAIR VALUE: NOTIFICATION OF SUBJECT CORPORATION; DEMAND FOR PAYMENT OF ESTIMATE. 1. A dissenter may notify the subject corporation in writing of his own estimate of the fair value of his shares and the amount of interest due, and demand payment of his estimate, less any payment pursuant to NRS 92A.460, or reject the offer pursuant to NRS 92A.470 and demand payment of the fair value of his shares and interest due, if he believes that the amount paid pursuant to NRS 92A.460 or offered pursuant to NRS 92A.470 is less than the fair value of his shares or that the interest due is incorrectly calculated. 2. A dissenter waives his right to demand payment pursuant to this section unless he notifies the subject corporation of his demand in writing within 30 days after the subject corporation made or offered payment for his shares. SECTION 92A.490. LEGAL PROCEEDING TO DETERMINE FAIR VALUE: DUTIES OF SUBJECT CORPORATION; POWERS OF COURT; RIGHTS OF DISSENTER. 1. If a demand for payment remains unsettled, the subject corporation shall commence a proceeding within 60 days after receiving the demand and petition the court to determine the fair value of the shares and accrued interest. If the subject corporation does not commence the proceeding within the 60-day period, it shall pay each dissenter whose demand remains unsettled the amount demanded. 72 2. A subject corporation shall commence the proceeding in the district court of the county where its registered office is located. If the subject corporation is a foreign entity without a resident agent in the state, it shall commence the proceeding in the county where the registered office of the domestic corporation merged with or whose shares were acquired by the foreign entity was located. 3. The subject corporation shall make all dissenters, whether or not residents of Nevada, whose demands remain unsettled, parties to the proceeding as in an action against their shares. All parties must be served with a copy of the petition. Nonresidents may be served by registered or certified mail or by publication as provided by law. 4. The jurisdiction of the court in which the proceeding is commenced under subsection 2 is plenary and exclusive. The court may appoint one or more persons as appraisers to receive evidence and recommend a decision on the question of fair value. The appraisers have the powers described in the order appointing them, or any amendment thereto. The dissenters are entitled to the same discovery rights as parties in other civil proceedings. 5. Each dissenter who is made a party to the proceeding is entitled to a judgment: (a) For the amount, if any, by which the court finds the fair value of his shares, plus interest, exceeds the amount paid by the subject corporation; or (b) For the fair value, plus accrued interest, of his after-acquired shares for which the subject corporation elected to withhold payment pursuant to NRS 92A.470. SECTION 92A.500. LEGAL PROCEEDING TO DETERMINE FAIR VALUE: ASSESSMENT OF COSTS AND FEES. 1. The court in a proceeding to determine fair value shall determine all of the costs of the proceeding, including the reasonable compensation and expenses of any appraisers appointed by the court. The court shall assess the costs against the subject corporation, except that the court may assess costs against all or some of the dissenters, in amounts the court finds equitable, to the extent the court finds the dissenters acted arbitrarily, vexatiously or not in good faith in demanding payment. 2. The court may also assess the fees and expenses of the counsel and experts for the respective parties, in amounts the court finds equitable: (a) Against the subject corporation and in favor of all dissenters if the court finds the subject corporation did not substantially comply with the requirements of NRS 92A.300 to 92A.500, inclusive; or 73 (b) Against either the subject corporation or a dissenter in favor of any other party, if the court finds that the party against whom the fees and expenses are assessed acted arbitrarily, vexatiously or not in good faith with respect to the rights provided by NRS 92A.300 to 92A.500, inclusive. 3. If the court finds that the services of counsel for any dissenter were of substantial benefit to other dissenters similarly situated, and that the fees for those services should not be assessed against the subject corporation, the court may award to those counsel reasonable fees to be paid out of the amounts awarded to the dissenters who were benefited. 4. In a proceeding commenced pursuant to NRS 92A.460, the court may assess the costs against the subject corporation, except that the court may assess costs against all or some of the dissenters who are parties to the proceeding, in amounts the court finds equitable, to the extent the court finds that such parties did not act in good faith in instituting the proceeding. 5. This section does not preclude any party in a proceeding commenced pursuant to NRS 92A.460 or 92A.490 from applying the provisions of N.R.C.P. 68 or NRS 17.115. 74 PART II: INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any pending, threatened, or completed civil, criminal, administrative, or arbitration action, suit, or proceeding, or any appeal therein or any inquiry or investigation which could result in such action, suit, or proceeding, because of his or her being or having been our director, officer, employee, or agent or of any constituent corporation absorbed by us in a consolidation or merger or by reason of his or her being or having been a director, officer, trustee, employee, or agent of any other corporation or of any partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan, or such enterprise, serving as such at our request or of any such constituent corporation, or the legal representative of any such director, officer, trustee, employee, or agent, from and against any and all reasonable costs, disbursements, and attorney's fees, and any and all amounts paid or incurred in satisfaction of settlements, judgments, fines, and penalties, incurred or suffered in connection with any such proceeding. The IMNT Bylaws provide that IMNT shall, to the fullest extent to which it is empowered to do so by the Delaware General Corporation Law or any other applicable law, as may from time to time be in effect, indemnify any person who was or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of IMNT, or is or was serving at the request of IMNT as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against all expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows: (1) that insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described under Item 20 above, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. (2) to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the registration statement pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of Form S-4, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request. (3) to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning the Merger and related transactions of IMNT that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective. 76 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in Ogden, Utah on this 7th day of August 2003.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that I 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. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Ultimate Security Systems Corporation as of December 31, 2001 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. My audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying information under title Supplemental Information is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in my opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 7 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in note 7. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

83 Ultimate Security Systems Corporation NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Year Ended December 31, 2001 NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY The Company's primary business is to develop, manufacture and market a vehicle anti-theft product that also has applications to the construction equipment market and the motorcycle market. The Company is subject to certain risks including competition from larger, more established companies marketing anti-theft products, the Company's ability to obtain adequate financing to support growth, reliance upon key employees, and the ability to attract and retain additional qualified personnel. NOTE 2 - HISTORY The Company was incorporated on August 18, 1994. Since inception and through the period ending December 31, 1995, the Company's efforts were devoted primarily to an assessment of the automotive aftermarket and commercial truck market structures, an assessment of competitors and their products within those markets, pricing strategies of competitors, product attribute and positioning strategies of competitors, and an assessment of the technologies employed in competitive products. During this same period, the Company began refining, with various industry sources, experts and consultants with industry knowledge and experience, competitive strategies for positioning its products, undertook product refinements and enhancements, and began to focus its efforts on securing manufacturer representatives for product representation, developing joint ventures, securing third party product endorsements, and securing financing to begin commercialization of its products. In 1996, the Company received its first patent, assigned from a founding member, covering the automotive anti-theft and anti-carjacking products. During the year, the company also filed a Continuation-In-Part to expand its patent coverage and to include product enhancements and refinements. In this same year, the Company initiated international patent filings. During this same year, the Company's efforts were primarily devoted to obtaining financing to begin commercialization of the Company's products in addition to the activities from the prior year. In the second quarter of 1996, the Company entered into a distribution agreement for the Los Angeles, California area and shortly thereafter, obtained financing to begin a limited introduction of its automotive aftermarket products for this region. A final assembly facility was set up in Manafee, Riverside County, California at a rental of $510 per month. 84 In 1997, the Company's efforts were devoted to obtaining additional financing for production and commercialization of the Company's products. This was in conjunction with the development of selling and marketing collateral for product introduction into the Los Angeles, California region. During this period, product development for commercialization and production of the automotive and commercial truck products yielded significant refinements in product design and manufacturability, as well as significant reductions in product costs. The Company's efforts in 1998 were a continuation of those from the prior year. In the second quarter of this year, the Company entered into another distribution agreement that is national in scope. In 1999, the Company continued its efforts from the prior year. During this period, limited trade advertising commenced together with limited specialty consumer public relations efforts. In 2000, the Company continued its efforts from the prior years. During this period, trade advertising for the acquisition of additional authorized retail dealers and manufacturers representative firms was increased together with the expansion of specialty consumer advertising and public relations efforts. In the second quarter, the Company commenced shipments of its product to dealers to fill retail sales orders. Sales was $19,286, representing 162 units. In 2001 the Company continued trade advertising and brand-building and expanded the dealer network. Sales were $102,541, representing 922 units. NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION The Company ceased being a Development Stage Enterprise on January 1, 2001, having concluded the principal activities attributed to a Development Stage Enterprise outlined in FAS 7. The company concluded the third round of capital acquisition, and management considers this function a periodic activity not associated with a Development Stage Enterprise. Revenue is not yet to the point of covering annual deficit, but considered significant, which places the company beyond a Development Stage Enterprise. 85 The accompanying audited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included, and all adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior years' balance sheets have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. Other Liabilities and Selling Costs in the 1999 financial statements were reclassified to Product Development Costs. 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 revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE The company has had insufficient credit loss experience to formulate an allowance for credit losses. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the first-in-first-out method. Provisions are made, when required, to reduce excess and obsolete inventory to their estimated realizable values. Impaired inventory is first subjected to a re-manufacturing process. Non-Marketable inventory is written down and salvaged if possible as non working samples. Inventories at December 31, 2001 and 2000: 2001 2000 ---------------- ----------------- Components $ 6,240 $ 3,301 Materials & Supplies 1,860 903 Work In Process 520 460 Finished Goods 9,467 1,240 ---------------- ----------------- $ 18,087 $ 5,904 86 Limited manufacturing commenced in 1998 for demonstration products and in anticipation of sales. Finished units are furnished to both current and potential authorized dealers for evaluation, for display, or for installation on "project" vehicles, and to selling representatives. These units are charged to selling expense and removed from inventory. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the number of units and amounts charged to selling expenses were 159 and $9,331 respectively. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In December 1999, The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB 101 summarizes certain of the SEC's views in applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenues from the sale of anti-theft products are recognized upon shipment of goods in response to purchase order or sales contract. Any payments received prior to revenue recognition are recorded as as deferred revenue. The Company generally does not grant to its customers any rights to return products. The normal distribution channel is through distributors. Product revenues from sales to distributors are recognized upon shipment of goods in response to purchase order or sales contract. Product sales through manufacturer's representatives and sales agents are accomplished though drop shipments. Revenue is recognized in the usual way when the product is shipped to the customer. Commissions are paid on net invoice collected. COST OF SALES Cost of Sales consists of product component costs and assembly labor: 2001 2000 -------------- -------------- Direct component costs $ 56,478 $ 10,561 Assembly labor 3,376 1,384 ------------- -------------- $ 59,854 $ 11,945 87 In the first year of sales, 2000, Cost of Sales represented 61.9% of Sales, and in 2001, 58.3%. The cost of sales percentage planned by the third year of sales is 52%. As sales increase, additional labor will be hired from a plentiful supply of skilled assembly labor in Orange County. Labor inefficiencies are expected to rapidly decline as new hires are put through a training program. Component costs were higher than planned, because quantity discounts were not realized at the minimal level of sales achieved. As sales increase, price breaks will be negotiated on component purchases. The facility has the capability of expanding production to 60,000 units annually. SELLING EXPENSES 2001 2000 ---------------- ---------------- $ 613,817 $ 374,765 Selling Expenses consist mainly of marketing-related salaries and advertising. Other marketing related expenses include public relations, printing, trade shows and sample units. The increase from year to year matches the increase in sales. The scale of Selling Expenses was many more times net revenue in this second sales year. This was the result of the company's aggressive brand-building, promoting the product in the automobile after-market industry. The company anticipates that Selling Expenses will increase on an annual basis as it continues to pursue a brand-building strategy through advertising, distribution and an expanded sales force. ADVERTISING COSTS Advertising consisted of display ads in trade magazines. The balance was in promotional activities such as participation in car shows and advertising in magazines that distributors patronize such as Hot Rod and Power Tour. WARRANTY EXPENSE The company warrants its product against defects to the original purchaser still owning the auto that was originally fitted. Repair or replacement is at no charge. The Company warrants the performance of the product to the extent that, should the device be overcome and the vehicle stolen and not recovered, the insurance deductible is refunded to a limit of $10,000. There is insufficient warranty loss experience to establish an allowance for warranty costs. Warranty costs in 2001 of $4,437 were due to accommodating dealer returns following improper installations. 88 COMPREHENSIVE INCOME In June, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income. SFAS 130 defines comprehensive income as the changes in equity (net assets) in a period, except those resulting from stockholder transactions. Comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 2000 approximated net income (loss). EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into consideration the potentially dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, such as outstanding convertible preferred stock and warrants, that if exercised or converted into common stock would then share in the earnings of the company. In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", basic net income (loss) per common share has been calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, less shares subject to repurchase. For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company has excluded all convertible preferred stock and outstanding warrants from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share, because all such securities are antidilutive for those periods. The total number of shares excluded from the calculations of diluted net loss per common share were 19,510,992 and 17,795,652, respectively. Basic earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 was computed as follows: 2001 2000 ------------- ------------- Net Loss $ (1,153,495) $ (613,763) Average shares outstanding - basic 8,856,593 8,477,498 Earnings Per share - basic $ -0.13 $ -0.07 Antidilutive securities not included: Preferred Stock 13,007,328 11,863,768 ============ ============ Warrants 6,503,664 5,931,884 ============ ============ 89 NOTE 4 - BALANCE SHEET COMPONENTS Accounts Receivable 2001 2000 -------------- ------------- $ 46,111 $ 13,495 Accounts Receivable as at December 31, 2001 were collected subsequently. No allowance for doubtful accounts was made. Note Payable Note Payable consists of a Note in the amount of $50,000. The Note carries a cumulative interest rate of 12% per annum on any outstanding balance. The outstanding balance as of December 31, 2001 and 2000 was as follows: 2001 2000 -------------- ------------- $ 50,000 $ 50,000 The Note has no current portion. It must be retired by special payments that begin when product revenues begin and are in addition to interest. The note also retains the right to participation in revenues to certain limits, following retirement of the note. The three levels of payments are sequential: a) Retirement of the note: $10 for each unit sold until the amount of the Note is retired, then; b) Participation in revenue: $5 for each unit sold until the original amount of the note is again realized, then; c) Participation in revenue: 1% of the Company's gross revenues for a period of ten years after conditions a) and b) have been met. NOTE 5 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY CAPITAL STOCK The company was incorporated in Nevada on August 18, 1994 with 10,000,000 common shares authorized of no par value. On April 3, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors approved amending the Company's Articles of Incorporation to: a) increase the number of authorized common shares to 20,000,000 with a par value of $.01; b) authorize 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock Series A with $.01 par value. 90 The certificate amending Articles of Incorporation was ultimately filed in 1997. The Company's Board of Directors also approved the issuance of up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to certain investors through a Regulation D, Rule 504 Offering in an aggregate amount not exceeding $1,000,000. In August of 1997, the Company sold 265,498 shares of common stock pursuant to a Regulation D, Rule 504 Offering. The Company also issued 180,000 shares of common stock for certain legal and administrative costs incurred in conjunction with the Offering. Other costs associated with the Offering are charged to "Capital in excess of par value." Proceeds of the sale of stock were used primarily for Product Development and the balance for General &Administrative Expenses. On September 6, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved amending the Company's Articles of Incorporation to: a) increase the number of authorized common shares to 50,000,000 with a par value of $.01 and; b) increase the number of authorized preferred shares to 6,000,000 with $.01 par value. The effect of this amendment has been presented retroactively to the date of inception in the accompanying financial statements. On September 6, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors also approved the sale of an additional 3 million shares of preferred stock through the Private Placement Regulation D, Rule 506 Offering. The proceeds were used for Product Development. As of December 31, 2000, the Company had sold 5,444,884 shares of preferred stock. Legal, printing, distribution, marketing and related costs associated with the Preferred Stock Offering are charged to "Capital in excess of par value." In 2001, 758,190 common shares were sold for $367,825, the proceeds of which were used for Selling Expenses and Product Development Costs. 91 Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A 2001 2000 --------- ---------- Authorized - 6,000,000 Outstanding - 6,483,664 issued and outstanding $ 64,837 $ 59,319 .. In August of 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved the sale of 3 million shares of preferred stock through a Private Placement Regulation D, Rule 506 Offering. The shares are offered for $1.00 a share with a par value of $0.01 and a cumulative 14% per annum dividend rate. The preferred shares carry a mandatory redemption by the Company at a rate of $2.00 for each preferred share within thirty-six months of the subscription date, unless the Company first causes the common stock of the Company to be listed on a stock exchange. In the latter event, the preferred shares are converted to two shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock. The company anticipates listing on a stock exchange prior to the mandatory redemption date. Stock dividends will be paid in common stock. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had sold 237,000 shares of preferred stock and by December 31, 2000, 5,931,884 preferred shares. Legal, printing, distribution, marketing and related costs associated with the Preferred Stock Offering are charged to "Capital in excess of par value." On September 6, 2000 the Company's Board of Directors approved an increase in the number of Series A Preferred Stock to 5,000,000. The Board authorized a further increase of 1,000,000 to 6,000,000 in December 2000, formalized by an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation on March 12, 2001. As of December 31, 2000 the company had sold 5,694,884 preferred shares Series A and by December 31, 2001, a further 551,780 preferred shares Series A, proceeds being used for General and Administrative expenses and Product Development Costs. Additionally, each preferred share Series A carries a warrant to purchase one share of the Company's common stock for $0.50 a share. CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK, SERIES B 2001 2000 ----------- ---------- Authorized - 5,000,000 Outstanding - 242,750 issued and outstanding $ 2,428 $ 0 92 On November 22, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved amending the Articles of Incorporation to authorize 5,000,000 share of Series B preferred Stock with a par value of $0.01. The rights, privileges and terms of the Series B are the same as Series A. One warrant is attached to each Series B preferred share. 242,750 Series B preferred shares were sold in 2001. WARRANTS One warrant is attached to each share of Preferred Stock, entitling the stockholder to purchase one share of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share (Series A) and $1.00 per share (Series B). Warrants are exercisable for a period of three years from first issue, or one year from the date the Company's common stock is quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board or a similar electronic quotation system or stock exchange. Warrants are cancelled in the event that the Preferred Shares to which warrants are attached are redeemed. There is no provision for detaching the warrants from the stock and they are not separately valued. In 2001, 758,190 A warrants were exercised for an equal number of common shares. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". Each of the four founders of the Company was issued 2,000,000 shares individually in 1995 for the cost of certain technologies and marketing costs incorporated into the Company's products. Each of the four contributed an approximately equal share in their respective areas. Founder Alan McDougal was issued his stock in return for developing the company's anti-theft device to the patent stage. He shortly thereafter resigned from the corporation and from his interest in the patent. He transferred his stock equally among the other three founders. 93 Stockholder / Position Stock Issued for: Shares Value - ---------------------- ----------------------- --------------- ------------- Alan MacDougall Patent development 2,000,000 shares $ 50,000 (Assigned his shares to the other three) John Hilliard Inventor of patented auto anti-theft technology. Design and development 2,000,000 shares $ 50,000 cost Mike Rasmovitch Sales and Marketing. Design and engineering 2,000,000 shares $ 50,000 costs James K. Cooper Operations. Non accountable marketing costs 2,000,000 shares $ 50,000 Mobilization costs --------------- ------------ 8,000,000 shares $ 200,000 --------------- ------------ The value of the non-monetary exchange was determined in accordance with APB-29, as modified by FASB Interpretation No. 30. Consideration given as the measure of value could not be determined with any accuracy. The consideration received, stock, had no recognizable market to establish fair market value. The par value of the stock was used as a surrogate for value, on the assumption that the exchange was a reciprocal transfer of equal value. NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS LEASES The Company's rented property in Costa Mesa and Riverside County is rented on a month to month basis. NOTE PAYABLE The $50,000 Note Payable described in Note 4 requires a commitment of payments based upon revenue. The note must be retired by special payments that begin when product revenues begin and are in addition to interest. The note also retains the right to participation in revenues to certain limits, following retirement of the note. The three levels of payments are sequential: d) Retirement of the note: $10 for each unit sold until the amount of the Note is retired, then; e) Participation in revenue: $5 for each unit sold until the original amount of the note is again realized, then; f) Participation in revenue: 1% of the Company's gross revenues for a period of ten years after conditions a) and b) have been met. 94 AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ULTIMATE SECURITY SYSTEMS CORPORATION DECEMBER 31, 2002 95 JOHN KINROSS-KENNEDY CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT 4921 BIRCH STREET, SUITE 110 NEWPORT BEACH, CA 92660 TEL (949) 399-2824 FAX (949)724-3812 jkinross@zamucen.com - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Board of Directors Ultimate Security Systems Corporation Irvine, California 92614 I have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Ultimate Security Systems Corporation as of December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, and the related statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I have conducted my audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that I 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. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion. In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the assets and liabilities of Ultimate Security Systems Corporation as at December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001 and the results of operations and cash flows for the years then ended, 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 discussed in note 7 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in note 7. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

102 Ultimate Security Systems Corporation NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY The Company's primary business is to develop, manufacture and market a vehicle anti-theft product that also has applications to the construction equipment market and the motorcycle market. The Company is subject to certain risks including competition from larger, more established companies marketing anti-theft products, the Company's ability to obtain adequate financing to support growth, reliance upon key employees, and the ability to attract and retain additional qualified personnel. NOTE 2 - HISTORY The Company was incorporated on August 18, 1994. Since inception and through the period ending December 31, 1995, the Company's efforts were devoted primarily to an assessment of the automotive aftermarket and commercial truck market structures, an assessment of competitors and their products within those markets, pricing strategies of competitors, product attribute and positioning strategies of competitors, and an assessment of the technologies employed in competitive products. During this same period, the Company began refining, with various industry sources, experts and consultants with industry knowledge and experience, competitive strategies for positioning its products, undertook product refinements and enhancements, and began to focus its efforts on securing manufacturer representatives for product representation, developing joint ventures, securing third party product endorsements, and securing financing to begin commercialization of its products. In 1996, the Company received its first patent, assigned from a founding member, covering the automotive anti-theft and anti-carjacking products. During the year, the company also filed a Continuation-In-Part to expand its patent coverage and to include product enhancements and refinements. In this same year, the Company initiated international patent filings. During this same year, the Company's efforts were primarily devoted to obtaining financing to begin commercialization of the Company's products in addition to the activities from the prior year. In the second quarter of 1996, the Company entered into a distribution agreement for the Los Angeles, California area and shortly thereafter, obtained financing to begin a limited introduction of its automotive aftermarket products for this region. A final assembly facility was set up in Manafee, Riverside County, California at a rental of $510 per month. 103 In 1997, the Company's efforts were devoted to obtaining additional financing for production and commercialization of the Company's products. This was in conjunction with the development of selling and marketing collateral for product introduction into the Los Angeles, California region. During this period, product development for commercialization and production of the automotive and commercial truck products yielded significant refinements in product design and manufacturability, as well as significant reductions in product costs. The Company's efforts in 1998 were a continuation of those from the prior year. In the second quarter of this year, the Company entered into another distribution agreement that is national in scope. In 1999, the Company continued its efforts from the prior year. During this period, limited trade advertising commenced together with limited specialty consumer public relations efforts. In 2000, the Company continued its efforts from the prior years. During this period, trade advertising for the acquisition of additional authorized retail dealers and manufacturers representative firms was increased together with the expansion of specialty consumer advertising and public relations efforts. In the second quarter, the Company commenced shipments of its product to dealers to fill retail sales orders. Sales was $19,286, representing 162 units. In 2001, the Company continued trade advertising and brand-building and expanded the dealer network. Sales were $102,541, representing 922 units. The aggressive marketing program continued throughout 2002, with consolidation of dealer networks. Experience with dealer returns from incorrect installation in 2001 generated a shift toward dealer training. Sales in 2002 was $89,588, representing 814 units. NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION The Company ceased being a Development Stage Enterprise on January 1, 2001, having concluded the principal activities attributed to a Development Stage Enterprise outlined in FAS 7. The company concluded the third round of capital acquisition, and management considers this function a periodic activity not associated with a Development Stage Enterprise. Revenue is not yet to the point of covering annual deficit, but considered significant, which places the company beyond a Development Stage Enterprise. 104 The accompanying audited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included, and all adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior years' balance sheets have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation. Other Liabilities and Selling Costs in the 1999 financial statements were reclassified to Product Development Costs. 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 revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE The company has had insufficient credit loss experience to formulate an allowance for credit losses. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the first-in-first-out method. Provisions are made, when required, to reduce excess and obsolete inventory to their estimated realizable values. Impaired inventory is first subjected to a re-manufacturing process. Non-Marketable inventory is written down and salvaged if possible as non working samples. Inventories at December 31, 2002 and 2001: 2002 2001 ---------------- ----------------- Components $ 21,818 $ 6,240 Materials & Supplies 6,416 1,860 Work In Process 450 520 Finished Goods 12,500 9,467 ---------------- ----------------- $ 41,184 $ 18,087 105 Limited manufacturing commenced in Fiscal Year 1998 for demonstration products and in anticipation of sales. Finished units are furnished to both current and potential authorized dealers for evaluation, for display, or for installation on "project" vehicles, and to selling representatives. These units are charged to selling expense and removed from inventory. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the number of units and amounts charged to selling expenses were 150 and $8,850 respectively. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In December 1999, The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB 101 summarizes certain of the SEC's views in applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenues from the sale of anti-theft products are recognized upon shipment of goods in response to purchase order or sales contract. Any payments received prior to revenue recognition are recorded as as deferred revenue. The Company generally does not grant to its customers any rights to return products. The normal distribution channel is through distributors. Product revenues from sales to distributors are recognized upon shipment of goods in response to purchase order or sales contract. Product sales through manufacturer's representatives and sales agents are accomplished though drop shipments. Revenue is recognized in the usual way when the product is shipped to the customer. Commissions are paid on net invoice collected. COST OF SALES Cost of Sales consists of product component costs and assembly labor: 2002 2001 -------------- -------------- Direct component costs $ 52,164 $ 56,478 Assembly labor 2,861 3,376 -------------- -------------- $ 55,025 $ 59,854 106 In the first year of sales, 2000, Cost of Sales represented 61.9% of Sales; in 2001: 58.3%; in 2002: 61.4% The cost of sales percentage planned by the third year of sales is 52%. As sales increase, additional labor will be hired from a plentiful supply of skilled assembly labor in Orange County. Labor inefficiencies are expected to rapidly decline as new hires are put through a training program. Component costs were higher than planned, because quantity discounts were not realized at the minimal level of sales achieved. As sales increase, price breaks will be negotiated on component purchases. The facility has the capability of expanding production to 60,000 units annually. SELLING EXPENSES 2001 2000 -------------- ---------------- $ 467,676 $ 613,817 Selling Expenses consist mainly of marketing-related salaries and advertising. Other marketing related expenses include public relations, printing, trade shows and sample units. The increase from year to year matches the increase in sales. The scale of Selling Expenses was many more times net revenue. This was the result of the company's aggressive brand-building, promoting the product in the automobile after-market industry. The company anticipates that Selling Expenses will increase on an annual basis as it continues to pursue a brand-building strategy through advertising, distribution and an expanded sales force. ADVERTISING COSTS Advertising consisted of display ads in trade magazines. The balance was in promotional activities such as participation in car shows and advertising in magazines that distributors patronize such as Hot Rod and Power Tour. WARRANTY EXPENSE The company warrants its product against defects to the original purchaser still owning the auto that was originally fitted. Repair or replacement is at no charge. The Company warrants the performance of the product to the extent that, should the device be overcome and the vehicle stolen and not recovered, the insurance deductible is refunded to a limit of $10,000. There is insufficient warranty loss experience to establish an allowance for warranty costs. Warranty costs of $2,972 (2002) and $4,437 (2001) were due to accommodating dealer returns following improper installations. This compelled the company to generate a more comprehensive dealer training program in 2002. 107 COMPREHENSIVE INCOME In June, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income. SFAS 130 defines comprehensive income as the changes in equity (net assets) in a period, except those resulting from stockholder transactions. Comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 approximated net income (loss). EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into consideration the potentially dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, such as outstanding convertible preferred stock and warrants, that if exercised or converted into common stock would then share in the earnings of the company. In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", basic net income (loss) per common share has been calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, less shares subject to repurchase. Earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2002 was computed as follows:
2002 2001 -------------- ---------------- Net Loss $ (886,979) $ (1,153,495) Earnings per share - basic $ -0.09 $ -0.13 Earnings per share - diluted $ -0.03 $ -0.04 Weighted Average common shares outstanding - basic 9,430,790 8,856,593 Dilutive effect of: Preferred Stock 17,052,807 12,658,298 Warrants 7,768,213 5,950,054 -------------- ---------------- Weighted Average common shares outstanding, Assuming dilution 34,251,810 27,464,945 ============== ===============
Weighted average common shares outstanding, assuming dilution, included the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of preferred shares, as well as the assumed conversion of the warrants. 108 NOTE 4 - BALANCE SHEET COMPONENTS ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE 2002 2001 ----------------- ------------------ $ 13,504 $ 46,111 Accounts Receivable as at December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001 were collected subsequently. No allowance for doubtful accounts was made. NOTE PAYABLE Note Payable consists of a Note in the amount of $50,000. The Note carries a cumulative interest rate of 12% per annum on any outstanding balance. The outstanding balance as of December 31, 2001and 2000 was as follows: 2002 2001 ----------------- ------------------ $ 50,000 $ 50,000 The Note has no current portion. It must be retired by special payments that begin when product revenues begin and are in addition to interest. The note also retains the right to participation in revenues to certain limits, following retirement of the note. The three levels of payments are sequential: a) Retirement of the note: $10 for each unit sold until the amount of the Note is retired, then; b) Participation in revenue: $5 for each unit sold until the original amount of the note is again realized, then; c) Participation in revenue: 1% of the Company's gross revenues for a period of ten years after conditions a) and b) have been met. 109 NOTE 5 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY CAPITAL STOCK The company was incorporated in Nevada on August 18, 1994 with 10,000,000 common shares authorized of no par value. On April 3, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors approved amending the Company's Articles of Incorporation to: a) increase the number of authorized common shares to 20,000,000 with a par value of $.01; b) authorize 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock Series A with $.01 par value. The certificate amending Articles of Incorporation was ultimately filed in 1997. The Company's Board of Directors also approved the issuance of up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock for sale to certain investors through a Regulation D, Rule 504 Offering in an aggregate amount not exceeding $1,000,000. In August of 1997, the Company sold 265,498 shares of common stock pursuant to a Regulation D, Rule 504 Offering. The Company also issued 180,000 shares of common stock for certain legal and administrative costs incurred in conjunction with the Offering. Other costs associated with the Offering are charged to "Capital in excess of par value." Proceeds of the sale of stock were used primarily for Product Development and the balance for General &Administrative Expenses. On September 6, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved amending the Company's Articles of Incorporation to: a) increase the number of authorized common shares to 50,000,000 with a par value of $.01 and; b) increase the number of authorized preferred shares to 6,000,000 with $.01 par value. The effect of this amendment has been presented retroactively to the date of inception in the accompanying financial statements. On September 6, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors also approved the sale of an additional 3 million shares of preferred stock through the Private Placement Regulation D, Rule 506 Offering. The proceeds were used for Product Development. As of December 31, 2000, the Company had sold 5,444,884 shares of preferred stock. Legal, printing, distribution, marketing and related costs associated with the Preferred Stock Offering are charged to "Capital in excess of par value." In 2001, 758,190 common shares were sold for $367,825, the proceeds of which were used for Selling Expenses and Product Development Costs. 110 In 2002, 30569 common shares were sold for $66,568, the proceeds of which were used for expenses of the Company. CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK, SERIES A 2002 2001 ----------- ---------- Authorized - 6,000,000 Outstanding - 7,269,414 issued and outstanding $ 72,694 $ 64,837 In August of 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved the sale of 3 million shares of preferred stock through a Private Placement Regulation D, Rule 506 Offering. The shares are offered for $1.00 a share with a par value of $0.01 and a cumulative 14% per annum dividend rate. The preferred shares carry a mandatory redemption by the Company at a rate of $2.00 for each preferred share within thirty-six months of the subscription date, unless the Company first causes the common stock of the Company to be listed on a stock exchange. In the latter event, the preferred shares are converted to two shares of common stock for each share of preferred stock. The company anticipates listing on a stock exchange prior to the mandatory redemption date. Stock dividends will be paid in common stock. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had sold 237,000 shares of preferred stock and by December 31, 2000, 5,931,884 preferred shares. Legal, printing, distribution, marketing and related costs associated with the Preferred Stock Offering are charged to "Capital in excess of par value." On September 6, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved an increase in the number of Series A Preferred Stock to 5,000,000. The Board authorized a further increase of 1,000,000 to 6,000,000 in December 2000, formalized by an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation on March 12, 2001. As of December 31, 2000 the company had sold 5,694,884 preferred shares Series A and by December 31, 2001, a further 551,780 preferred shares Series A, proceeds being used for General and Administrative expenses and Product Development Costs. Additionally, each preferred share Series A carries a warrant to purchase one share of the Company's common stock for $0.50 a share. 111 CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK, SERIES B 2002 2001 --------- -------- Authorized - 5,000,000 Outstanding - 3,056,979 issued and outstanding $ 30,570 $ 2,428 On November 22, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved amending the Articles of Incorporation to authorize 5,000,000 share of Series B preferred Stock with a par value of $0.01. The rights, privileges and terms of the Series B are the same as Series A. One warrant is attached to each Series B preferred share. 242,750 Series B preferred shares were sold in 2001. WARRANTS One warrant is attached to each share of Series A and Series B Preferred Stock, entitling the stockholder to purchase one share of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share (Series A) and $1,00 per share (Series B). Warrants are exercisable for a period of three years from first issue, or one year from the date the Company's common stock is quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board or a similar electronic quotation system or stock exchange. Warrants are cancelled in the event that the Preferred Shares to which warrants are attached are redeemed. There is no provision for detaching the warrants from the stock and they are not separately valued. In 2001, 758,190 warrants were exercised for an equal number of common shares. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". Each of the four founders of the Company was issued 2,000,000 shares individually in 1995 for the cost of certain technologies and marketing costs incorporated into the Company's products. Each of the four contributed an approximately equal share in their respective areas. Founder Alan McDougal was issued his stock in return for developing the company's anti-theft device to the patent stage. He shortly thereafter resigned from the corporation and from his interest in the patent. He transferred his stock equally among the other three founders. 112 Stockholder / Position Stock Issued for: Shares Value - ---------------------- ----------------------- ---------------- --------- Alan MacDougall Patent development 2,000,000 shares $ 50,000 (Assigned his shares to the other three) John Hilliard Inventor of patented auto anti-theft technology Design and development 2,000,000 shares $ 50,000 costs Mike Rasmovitch Sales and Marketing. Design and engineering 2,000,000 shares $ 50,000 costs James K. Cooper Operations. Non accountable 2,000,000 shares $ 50,000 marketing costs Mobilization costs ---------------- --------- 8,000,000 shares $ 200,000 ---------------- --------- The value of the non-monetary exchange was determined in accordance with APB-29, as modified by FASB Interpretation No. 30. Consideration given as the measure of value could not be determined with any accuracy. The consideration received, stock, had no recognizable market to establish fair market value. The par value of the stock was used as a surrogate for value, on the assumption that the exchange was a reciprocal transfer of equal value. Redemption of Stock 2,666,666 shares representing all of the shares owned by founder Michael Rasmovich was purchased by the Company in 2002 for $20,000 and recorded by the cost method. The stock was placed in Treasury. NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS LEASES The Company's rented property in Costa Mesa and Riverside County is rented on a month to month basis. 113 NOTE PAYABLE The $50,000 Note Payable described in Note 4 requires a commitment of payments based upon revenue. The note must be retired by special payments that begin when product revenues begin and are in addition to interest. The note also retains the right to participation in revenues to certain limits, following retirement of the note. The three levels of payments are sequential: d) Retirement of the note: $10 for each unit sold until the amount of the Note is retired, then; e) Participation in revenue: $5 for each unit sold until the original amount of the note is again realized, then; f) Participation in revenue: 1% of the Company's gross revenues for a period of ten years after conditions a) and b) have been met. NOTE 7 - GOING CONCERN The company has suffered recurring losses from operations since inception. The company has not yet been able to gain market acceptance for its innovative auto theft device. Marketing at trade shows and auto sports events has not yet produced sufficient interest to generate material sales. The company is dependent upon this single product. However, customers who have bought the device are universally pleased with it. Management believes that it is only a matter of time before sales take-off occurs. The company has sufficient liquid reserves to wait out the current recession, but the long term prognosis is uncertain. Management is in the advanced planning stage for a merger with a public company, in order to provide the corporation with greater strategic and financial alternatives. It would permit integration with other automobile after-market corporations to broaden the product line. However, the current uncertainty remains. 114 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ULTIMATE SECURITY SYSTEMS CORPORATION FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 31, 2003 AND 2002 115 John Kinross-Kennedy Certified Public Accountant 4921 Birch Street, Suite 110 Newport Beach, CA 92660 Tel (949) 399-2824 Fax (949) 724-3812 jkinross@zamucen.com --------------------- Board of Directors Ultimate Security Systems Corporation Irvine, California 92614 I have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Ultimate Security Systems Corporation as of March 31, 2003 and the statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2002, in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Series issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. All information included in these financial statements is the representation of the management of Ultimate Security Systems Corporation. A review consists principally of inquiries of Company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, I do not express such an opinion. Based on my review, I am not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002 were audited by me, and I expressed a qualified opinion on them in my report dated April 10, 2003, but I have not performed any auditing procedures since that date. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Item 2 of Management's Discussion and Analysis accompanying these financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Item 4. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

121 Selling Expenses include advertising, public relations, printing, postage, travel, trade shows, sales personnel and commissions. Selling expenses remained relatively static at $156,012 and $169,318 in respective periods March 31, 2003 and 2002. Greater emphasis was placed on trade shows in the first quarter of 2003, which was offset by a reduction in tech rep salaries. Expenses in the first quarter included those for a trial in one market segment to re-brand the product. Feedback was not favorable and the decision was made to retain the brand name PowerLockTM for the product. General and Administrative Expenses include personnel costs and corporate functions such as legal, rent, insurance, and office expenses. The expenses were $91,642 in the first three months of fiscal 2003 and $66,483 in the corresponding period of the prior year. The $25,159 increase was due primarily to labor costs of engineering changes to circuit boards of the anti-theft device. As a result of the foregoing, net loss increased by $17,727 for the three months ended March 31, 3003 to $244,440 from $226,713 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities, as reflected in the statement of cash flows, are summarized in the following table: Three Months Ended -------------------- March 31, March 31, 2003 2002 --------- --------- Operating Activities (250,476) (270,744) Investing Activities Financing Activities 259,534 245,224 --------- --------- Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents 9,058 (25,520) --------- --------- Cash and cash equivalents increased by $9,058 in the first quarter of 2003. Cash used by operating activities was $250,476 in the first quarter of 2003, a decrease of $20,268 from $270,744 of the comparable period of 2002. This reflected our operating loss of $244,440, more than offset by higher receivable collections, reduction in inventory purchases and stabilization of accrued interest. 122 There were no investing activities in the first quarter of 2003 and the comparable period of 2002. Cash provided by financing activities increased by $14,310 in the first quarter of 2003, compared to the first quarter of 2002. Cash was provided by the sale of preferred stock in both years: $259,534 in the first quarter of 2003 and $245,224 in the first quarter of 2002. As of March 31, 2003 the Company had working capital of $1,045,247. The Company believes it has sufficient capital resources to meet its anticipated capital and operating requirements for the next twelve months. The company has no borrowings. Our operating results will continue to be adversely affected by economic timing factors and until market indifference to our innovative anti-theft device is overcome. We will need to redouble our efforts to raise public awareness of the benefits of our device. We will seek alliances with security organizations, businesses and non-profit agencies with a stake in prevention of auto theft. However, we cannot guarantee that sales will reverse the cash flow deficit in the next twelve months. We anticipate that we will continue to experience negative cash flows from operations through the next twelve months. ITEM 3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES, COMMITMENTS AND CERTAIN OTHER MATTERS In the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company's critical accounting policies and estimates were identified as those relating to revenue recognition and deferred revenue, loss provisions on accounts receivable, research and development expenses, and valuation of cost basis investments. Management has considered the disclosure requirements of Financial Release ("FR")60, regarding critical policies, and FR61 regarding liquidity and capital resources, including commitments and commercial obligations, and concluded that nothing has materially changed during the three months ended March 31, 2003 that would warrant further disclosure. ITEM 4. PLANS FOR A MERGER The company is negotiating a plan of merger with Immunotechnology Corporation ("ITC") of Ogden, Utah. The merger contemplates USSC merging into ITC, with the combined company being known as USSC. The board of directors of USSC believe that a merger with ITC is in the best interests of the company, including the shareholders. ITC is a "public company", which will provide the shareholders with the opportunity to sell their shares through the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. It will provide the company with strategic and financial alternatives, which it does not have as a private company. 123

Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in Article 10. RECITALS -------- A. The Boards of Directors of each of IMNT and USSC have approved this Agreement and deem it advisable and in the best interests of IMNT and USSC, respectively, and their respective stockholders that IMNT acquire USSC by the merger of USSC with and into IMNT (the "Merger") and, in furtherance thereof, have approved the Merger, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. B. Before the Effective Time and as a condition to consummation of the Merger, all outstanding shares of USSC Preferred Stock will be converted into outstanding shares of USSC Common Stock and all holders of USSC Preferred Stock shall have agreed to accept shares of IMNT common stock in exchange for all accrued but unpaid dividends. C. Pursuant to the Merger, among other things, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (i) all of the outstanding shares of USSC Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time of the Merger shall be converted into the right to receive shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of IMNT ("IMNT Common Stock"), and (ii) all USSC Options, USSC Warrants and USSC Stock Purchase Rights then outstanding (whether vested or unvested) shall become exercisable for IMNT Common Stock, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. D. IMNT and USSC intend that the Merger shall constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and in furtherance thereof intend that this Agreement shall be a "plan of reorganization" within the meaning of Sections 354(a) and 361(a) of the Code. E. USSC and IMNT desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Merger. NOW, THEREFORE, AS CONSIDERATION FOR the covenants, promises, representations and warranties set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which hereby are acknowledged by the parties), intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereby agree as follows: 1 Article 1 THE MERGER 1.1 The Merger. At the Effective Time and on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the applicable Nevada Delaware Law, USSC shall be merged with and into IMNT, the separate corporate existence of USSC shall cease, and IMNT shall continue as the surviving corporation. IMNT sometimes is referred to herein as the "Surviving Corporation." 1.2 Effective Time. Unless this Agreement is terminated earlier pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof, the closing of the Merger (the "Closing") is expected to occur on the date that the Registration Statement on Form S-4 is declared "effective" by the Securities and Exchange Commission and will occur no later than five (5) Business Days following satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article 6, at the offices of MC Law Group, 4100 Newport Place, Suite 860, Newport Beach, California 92660, unless another place or time is agreed to by IMNT and USSC. The date on which the Closing actually occurs is referred to herein as the "Closing Date." On the Closing Date, the parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing an Certificate of Merger (or similar instrument), in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Nevada Certificate of Merger"), with the Nevada Secretary of State and filing a Certificate of Merger (or similar instrument), in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Delaware Certificate of Merger"), with the Delaware Secretary of State, in each case in accordance with the relevant provisions of applicable law (the time of acceptance by the Delaware Secretary of State of such filing or such later time as may be agreed to by the parties and set forth in the Delaware Certificate of Merger being referred to herein as the "Effective Time"). 1.3 Effect of the Merger on Constituent Corporations. At the Effective Time, the effect of the Merger shall be as provided in the applicable provisions of Delaware and Nevada Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of IMNT and USSC shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of IMNT and USSC shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation. 1.4 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of Surviving Corporation. ---------------------------------------------------------------- (a) At the Effective Time, the Certificate of Incorporation of IMNT, as in effect immediately before the Effective Time, shall be the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by law and such certificate of incorporation and the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. (b) At the Effective Time, the Bylaws of IMNT, as in effect immediately before the Effective Time, shall be the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by such bylaws, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation and applicable law. 1.5 Directors and Officers of Surviving Corporation. Effective immediately upon the Closing, all of the current directors of IMNT will appoint the current directors of USSC as directors of the Surviving Corporation (the "Post-Closing Directors") and, thereafter, will resign as of the Effective Time, each Post-Closing Director to hold office in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. Effective immediately upon the Closing, all of the current officers of IMNT will resign and the Post-Closing Directors shall appoint new officers, each to hold office in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation. 2 1.6 Maximum Number of Shares of IMNT Common Stock to be Issued; Effect on Outstanding Securities of USSC . The maximum number of shares of IMNT Common Stock to be issued (including IMNT Common Stock to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of USSC Options, USSC Warrants (if any) or USSC Stock Purchase Rights to be assumed by IMNT as provided herein) in exchange for the acquisition by IMNT of all shares of USSC Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time and all vested and unvested USSC Options, USSC Warrants (if any) and USSC Stock Purchase Rights that then are outstanding (other than USSC Warrants that by their terms expire without payment, conversion, adjustment or other consideration at the Effective Time) shall not exceed the Aggregate Share Number. No adjustment shall be made in the number of shares of IMNT Common Stock issued in the Merger as a result of any consideration (in any form whatsoever) received by USSC from the date hereof to the Effective Time as a result of any exercise, conversion or exchange of USSC Options, USSC Warrants or USSC Stock Purchase Rights. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, because of the Merger and without any action on the part of IMNT, USSC or the holders of shares of USSC Common Stock or USSC Options, USSC Warrants or USSC Stock Purchase Rights, the following shall occur: (a) Conversion of USSC Common Stock. Each share of USSC Common Stock (assuming conversion of all outstanding shares of USSC Preferred Stock) issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares (as provided in Section 1.10)) shall be cancelled and extinguished, and each share of USSC Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time shall be converted automatically into the right to receive, following the expiration or early termination of any waiting period under the HSR Act that is applicable to the holder of such share at the Effective Time, that number of shares of IMNT Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio (subject to Section 1.9). (b) IMNT Common Stock. Each share of IMNT Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time shall remain outstanding as one validly issued, fully-paid and nonassessable share of the same class of common stock of the Surviving Corporation, with identical rights and privileges. From and after the Effective Time, each share certificate of IMNT theretofore evidencing ownership of such shares shall continue to evidence ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. (c) USSC Options and USSC Stock Option Plan. All unexpired and unexercised USSC Options, USSC Warrants and USSC Stock Purchase Rights then outstanding, whether vested or unvested, together with the USSC Stock Option Plan, shall be assumed by IMNT in accordance with the following: Each unexpired and unexercised USSC Option, USSC Warrant and USSC Stock Purchase Right then outstanding, whether vested or unvested, shall be, in connection with the Merger, assumed by IMNT, together with the USSC Stock Option Plan, if any. Each USSC Option, USSC Warrant and USSC Stock Purchase Right so assumed by IMNT under this Agreement shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and 3 conditions as were applicable to such USSC Option, USSC Warrant or USSC Stock Purchase Right immediately before the Effective Time (including all repurchase rights or vesting provisions), provided that (A) such USSC Option, USSC Warrant or USSC Stock Purchase Right, as the case may be, shall be exercisable for that number of whole shares of IMNT Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of USSC Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such USSC Option, USSC Warrant or USSC Stock Purchase Right immediately before the Effective Time (assuming such USSC Option, USSC Warrant or USSC Stock Purchase Right were exercisable in full) multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of IMNT Common Stock), and (B) the per-share exercise price for the shares of IMNT Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed USSC Option, USSC Warrant or USSC Stock Purchase Right, as the case may be, shall be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of USSC Common Stock at which such USSC Option, USSC Warrant or USSC Stock Purchase Right was exercisable immediately before the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent). It is the intention of the parties that USSC Options assumed by IMNT shall qualify following the Effective Time as incentive stock options as defined in Section 422 of the Code to the same extent USSC Options qualified as incentive stock options immediately before the Effective Time. The provisions of this Section 1.6(c) shall be applied consistent with the intent described in the preceding sentence. 1.7 Reservation of Shares. IMNT shall reserve sufficient shares of IMNT Common Stock for issuance pursuant to Section 1.6. 1.8 Adjustments to Exchange Ratio. The Exchange Ratio shall be equitably adjusted to accommodate fully the effect of any stock split, reverse split, stock combination, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into IMNT Common Stock or USSC Common Stock), reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar change with respect to IMNT Common Stock or USSC Common Stock the effective date of which occurs after the date of this Agreement and before the Effective Time. 1.9 Fractional Shares. No fraction of a share of IMNT Common Stock will be issued in the Merger, but in lieu thereof each holder of shares of USSC Common Stock who otherwise would be entitled to a fraction of a share of IMNT Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of IMNT Common Stock to be received by such holder) shall be entitled to receive from IMNT an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent) equal to the product of (a) such fraction multiplied by (b) the Closing Price. 1.10 Dissenting Shares. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of USSC Common Stock held by a holder who has demanded and perfected appraisal rights for such shares in accordance with the Nevada Code, and who, as of the Effective Time, has not effectively withdrawn or lost such appraisal or dissenters' rights ("Dissenting Shares"), shall not be converted into or represent a right to receive IMNT Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.6, but the holder thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the Nevada Code. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.10(a), if any holder of shares of USSC Common Stock who demands appraisal of such shares in accordance with the Nevada Code effectively withdraws or loses (through failure to perfect or otherwise) the right to appraisal, then, as of the later of (i) the Effective Time or (ii) the occurrence of such event, such holder's shares shall be converted automatically into and represent only the right to receive IMNT Common Stock as provided in Section 1.6, without interest thereon, upon surrender to the Surviving Corporation of the certificate representing such shares in accordance with Section 1.11. 4 (c) USSC shall give IMNT (i) prompt notice of its receipt of any written demand for appraisal of shares of USSC Common Stock, withdrawals of such demands and any other instrument relating to the Merger served in accordance with the Nevada Code and received by USSC and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal in accordance with the Nevada Code. USSC shall not, except with the prior written consent of IMNT or as may be required in accordance with applicable law, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demand for appraisal of USSC Common Stock or offer to settle or settle any such demand. 1.11 Exchange Procedures. (a) IMNT Common Stock. On the Closing Date, IMNT shall issue or cause to be issued for exchange in accordance with Section 1.6(a) the aggregate number of shares of IMNT Common Stock issuable as of the Effective Time in exchange for issued and outstanding shares of USSC Common Stock as of the Effective Time (b) Exchange Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be mailed to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates that immediately before the Effective Time represented issued and outstanding shares of USSC Common Stock (the "Certificates") and that were converted into the right to receive shares of IMNT Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.6, instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for certificates representing shares of IMNT Common Stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Surviving Corporation or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by IMNT, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions contained therein, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate representing the number of whole shares of IMNT Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.6 and cash in lieu of fractional shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.9, and the Certificate so surrendered shall be canceled. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time IMNT shall cause to be distributed to such holder a certificate or certificates (in such denominations as may be requested by such holder) representing that number of shares of IMNT Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled in accordance with the Exchange Ratio, which certificate or certificates shall be registered in the name of such holder. (c) Distributions With Respect to Unexchanged Shares of USSC Common Stock. No dividends or other distributions with respect to IMNT Common Stock declared or made after the Effective Time and with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares of IMNT Common Stock represented thereby until the holder of record of such Certificate surrenders such Certificate. Subject to applicable law, following surrender of any such Certificate, there shall be paid to the record holder of the certificates representing whole shares of IMNT Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, at the time of such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable (but for the provisions of this Section 1.11(c)) with respect to such whole shares of IMNT Common Stock. 5 (d) Transfers of Ownership. If any certificate for shares of IMNT Common Stock is to be issued pursuant to the Merger in a name other than that in which the Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of the issuance thereof that (i) the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such exchange shall have paid to IMNT or any agent designated by it all transfer and other taxes required by reason of the issuance of a certificate for shares of IMNT Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or it shall have been established to the satisfaction of IMNT or any agent designated by it that such taxes have been paid or are not payable, and (ii) the Person surrendering such Certificate shall provide the Surviving Corporation with an opinion of counsel, acceptable to the Surviving Corporation, that such transfer does not violate state or federal securities laws. (e) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.11, neither USSC, the Surviving Corporation, nor IMNT shall be liable to a holder of shares of USSC Common Stock for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. 1.12 No Further Ownership Rights in USSC Common Stock. All shares of IMNT Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of shares of USSC Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including any cash in lieu of fractional shares) shall be deemed to have been issued in full and complete satisfaction of all rights and privileges pertaining to such shares of USSC Common Stock, and there shall be no additional registration of transfers on the records of USSC of shares of USSC Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, such Certificates shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article 1. 1.13 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that Certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Surviving Corporation shall issue or cause to be issued Certificates representing such shares of IMNT Common Stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the execution and delivery of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof; provided, however, that IMNT may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to provide an indemnity against any claim that may be made against IMNT with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. 1.14 Tax Consequences. It is intended by the parties that the Merger will constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The parties hereto hereby adopt this Agreement as the "plan of reorganization" within the meaning of Sections 354(a) and 361(a) of the Code and as described in Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the Income Tax Regulations. 6 1.15 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any such further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of USSC, or to effect the assignment to the Surviving Corporation of any and all USSC Intellectual Property created by a founder, employee or consultant of USSC, or to complete and prosecute all domestic and foreign patent filings related to such USSC Intellectual Property, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation are fully authorized to take, and shall take, all such lawful and necessary action.

Except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, USSC shall not, without the prior written consent of IMNT, take or agree in writing or otherwise to take, any action that would make any of its representations or warranties contained in this Agreement untrue or incorrect in any material respect or prevent USSC from performing or cause USSC not to perform its agreements and covenants specified in this Agreement or knowingly cause any condition to IMNT's closing obligations in Section 6.3 not to be satisfied. 4.2 No Solicitation. Until the earlier of the Effective Time and the date of termination of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.1, USSC shall not take (and since January 1, 2003, has not taken), nor will USSC (and since January 1, 2003, has not permitted) permit any of USSC' s Representatives to take (directly or indirectly) any of the following actions with any Person other than IMNT and its designees: (a) solicit, encourage, initiate, entertain, review or encourage any proposal or offer from, or participate in or conduct discussions with or engage in negotiations with, any Person relating to any offer, indication of interest or proposal, oral, written or otherwise, formal or informal (a "Competing Proposed Transaction"), with respect to any possible Business Combination with USSC, (b) provide information not customarily disclosed consistent with USSC' s past practices with respect to USSC to any Person, other than IMNT, relating to (or which USSC believes or should reasonably know would be used for the purpose of formulating an offer, indication of interest or proposal with respect to), or otherwise assist, cooperate with, facilitate or encourage any effort or attempt by any such Person with regard to, any possible Business Combination with USSC, (c) agree to, or enter into a Contract with any Person, other than IMNT, providing for, or approving a Business Combination with USSC, (d) make or authorize any statement, recommendation, solicitation or endorsement in support of any possible Business Combination with USSC other than by IMNT, or (e) authorize or permit any of USSC' s Representatives to take any such action.

Each of USSC and IMNT acknowledges that this Section 4.2 was a significant inducement for IMNT to enter into this Agreement and that the absence of such provision would have resulted in either (i) a material reduction in the consideration to be paid to the stockholders of USSC in the Merger or (ii) a failure to induce IMNT to enter into this Agreement. 38 ARTICLE 5 ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS 5.1 Proxy Statement.

In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock which each share of Series A Preferred Stock may be converted into shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination or consolidation, be proportionately decreased. Except as provided in Section 4, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, if the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any other class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares provided for above), the number of shares of Common Stock 4 into which each share of Series A Preferred Stock may be converted shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such reorganization or reclassification, be proportionately adjusted such that the Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible into, in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock which the holders would otherwise have been entitled to receive, a number of shares of such other class or classes of stock equivalent to the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been subject to receipt by the holders upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock immediately before the change. If at any time or from time to time there is a capital reorganization of the Common Stock (other than subdivision, combination, consolidation, reclassification, substitution, or exchange of shares provided for elsewhere in this Section 6), or a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation's properties and assets to any other person, then, as part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale, provision shall be made so that the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation, or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger or consolidation or sale, to which a holder of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled on such capital reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 6 with respect to the rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock after the reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale to the end that the provisions of this Section 6 shall be applicable after that event as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. 7. Status of Converted Stock. If any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are repurchased or converted pursuant to Section 6, the shares so repurchased or converted shall be retired and shall thereafter have the status of authorized and unissued shares of Preferred Shares which may be reissued by the Corporation at any time as shares of any series of Preferred Shares. 8. Restrictions and Limitations (a) At such time as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Corporation shall not, without the vote or written consent of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3 %) of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock: 5 (i) Redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for value, any share or shares of Series A Preferred Stock, otherwise than by conversion in accordance with Section 6; (ii) Redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the Common Stock; provided, however, that this restriction shall not apply to the repurchase of shares of Common Stock from employees, officers, directors, consultants or other person performing services for the Corporation or any subsidiary of the Corporation pursuant to agreements pursuant to which the Corporation has the option to repurchase such shares at cost upon the occurrence of certain events, such as the termination of employment. (iii) Authorize or issue, or obligate itself to issue, any other equity security (including any security convertible into or exercisable for any equity security) senior to the Series A Preferred Stock as to dividend or conversion rights and liquidation preferences; (iv) Effect any sale, lease, assignment, transfer, or other conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, or any consolidation or merger involving the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, or any reclassification or other change of any stock, or any recapitalization of the Corporation; or (v) Increase or decrease (other than by conversion) the total number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock. (b) The Corporation shall not amend its Articles of Incorporation without the approval, by vote or written consent, by the holders of sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Series A Preferred Stock, if such amendment would amend, modify, annul, supersede, or otherwise change any of the rights, preferences, privileges of, or limitations provided for herein for the benefit of any shares of the Series A Preferred Stock. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the Corporation will not amend its Articles of Incorporation without the approval by the holders of sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Series A Preferred Stock, if such amendment would: (i) Reduce the dividend rate on the Series A Preferred Stock provided for herein, or make such dividends noncumulative, or defer the date from which dividends will accrue, or cancel accrued and unpaid dividends, or change the relative seniority rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends in relation to the holders of any other capital stock of the Corporation; (ii) Reduce the amount payable to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up the Corporation, or change the relative seniority of the liquidation preferences of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock to the rights upon liquidation of the holders of any other capital stock of the Corporation; or 6 (iii) Cancel or modify the conversion rights of the Series A Preferred Stock provided for in Section 6.

Cooper, CFO Dollars and Sterling Corp D\B\A Shulman & Associates BY: ----------------------------- Manny J Shulman, President EX-10 14 exh10-2.txt 10.2 Stenton Leigh Business Resources, Inc. 1900 Corporate Blvd., Suite 305 West Boca Raton, Florida 33431 Telephone (561) 241-9921 Fax (561) 241-7011 February 19, 2003 PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL - ------------------------- Mr. James K. Cooper CEO and Chairman Ultimate Security Systems Corp. 17173 Gillette Ave., Suite 5B Irvine, CA 92614 Dear Mr. Cooper: Re: Advisory Services --------------------- Further to our conversations, we at Stenton Leigh Business Resources, Inc. ("SL") have become aware of potential investor(s), merger partner(s) or acquirer(s) for Ultimate Security Systems Corporation, and its affiliates, subsidiaries or associates (collectively "USSC" or the "Company"). In this regard, we submit herein our Agreement to confirm our understanding that USSC is prepared to compensate SL as its advisor in connection with a possible divestiture, joint venture, or other business combination of USSC and all or part of its assets or business with the party or parties to be introduced by SL (the "Transaction"), including Immunotechnology Corporation ("IMNT") or its subsidiaries or successors. 1. COMPENSATION ------------ SL shall receive a $500,000 cash fee upon completion of a Transaction, including a merger or acquisition with ImmunoTechnology ("IMNT") payable upon completion of a minimum of $5.0 million gross in financing from USSC's upcoming Private Placement. In consideration of these services to be rendered and performed by SL during the term of this Contract, the Company will pay SL a fee of $15,000 per month during a term of sixty (60) months ("Term") to commence payment after completion of the $5.0 million gross upcoming Private Placement. Inconsideration for the performance of services hereunder, the Company hereby agrees to pay to SL a non-refundable retainer in immediately available funds, of $15,000, upon execution of this Agreement. II. EQUITY OPTION ------------- At the consummation of a Transaction, SL and or assign will have the option for three years from the date of consummation of the Transaction to purchase 2,000,000 common shares of the Company at $0. 10 per share ("exercise price"). These Options will have a cashless exercise provision allowing for conversion by the Optionee at the difference between the stock market bid price at time of conversion and the Exercise Price as stated above, to be used to compute the stock payment by this differential. In the event that the Company shall sell or issue any Common Shares or Convertible Securities (including, without limitation, warrants, options, etc.) at a per share price (or exchange, exercise or conversion price) or on the day of exercise by the Optionee, the Common Shares are publicly trading on any NASD below the Exercise Price then in effect, the Exercise Price shall be immediately and automatically reduced to such lower price and the Options to purchase the Common Shares shall be proportionally increased, as to give the Company the same economic benefit originally granted. (Example: 300,000 options at $1.00 per Share would result in $300,000 to the Company. Should the Exercise Price be reduced to say $.75 per share, then the number of shares to be issued would then be increased to 400,000 "Conversion Price Protection"). III. TERMINATION ----------- SL's services may be terminated at any time. If SL's services are terminated SL will be entitled to receive and retain the portion of any fees payable as set out above. In the event of termination of this agreement SL would receive full compensation if at any time prior to the expiration of twenty-four (24) months after the giving of notice of termination of our arrangement, any Transaction is consummated with any party or parties with whom discussions regarding a Transaction had been initiated during the period of our engagement.

(iv) The Executive will not remove from Employer's or Employer's affiliates' premises (except to the extent such removal is for purposes of the performance of the Executive's duties at home or while traveling, or except as otherwise specifically authorized by Employer) any document, record, notebook, plan, model, component, device, or computer software or code, whether embodied in a disk or in any other form (collectively, the "Proprietary Items").

SECTION 8.2 COVENANTS OF EXECUTIVE. To the extent permissible pursuant to California Business and Professions Code section 16600, and in consideration of the acknowledgments by Executive, and the compensation and benefits to be provided to Executive by Employer, Executive makes the following covenants. (a) COVENANTS NOT TO COMPETE. Pursuant to this Agreement, and during the Term and Post-Agreement Period, Executive shall not engage, invest, own, manage, operate, finance, control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing, or control of any business whose products, services or activities compete in whole or in part with the products, services or activities of Employer or any affiliate of Employer anywhere in the United States ("Competitor"). (i) During the Term and Post-Agreement Period, Executive will not be employed by, associated, or in any manner connected with, a Competitor. Executive may purchase or otherwise acquire up to three percent (3%) of any class of securities of any issuer if such securities are listed on any national or regional securities exchange or have been registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Executive may not, however, participate in the activities of such issuer. (ii) During the Term and Post-Agreement Period, Executive may not, for Executive's own account or for the account of any other Person, solicit business of the same or similar type as Employer from any Person known by Executive to be a customer of Employer, whether or not Executive had personal contact with such Person during and by reason of Executive's employment with Employer. (iii) During the Term and Post-Agreement Period, Executive may not, for Executive's account or the account of any other Person, solicit, employ, or otherwise engage as an employee, independent contractor, or otherwise, any Person who is or was an employee of Employer at any time during the Term or in any manner induce or attempt to induce any employee of Employer to terminate his or her employment relationship with Employer, nor may Executive interfere with Employer's relationship with any Person, who at any time during the Term was an employee, contractor, supplier, or customer of Employer. (iv) During the Term and Post-Agreement Period, Executive many not, disparage Employer or any of Employer's shareholders, directors, officers, employees, or agents. (b) DIVISIBILITY OF COVENANTS. If any covenant in this Section 8.2 is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable, arbitrary, or against public policy, such covenant will be divisible with respect to scope, time, and geographic area, and such lesser scope, time, or geographic area, or all of them, as a court of competent jurisdiction may determine to be reasonable, not arbitrary, and not against public policy, will be effective, binding, and enforceable against Executive. (c) TIME APPLICABLE TO COVENANTS. The period of time applicable to any covenant in Section 8.2 is extended by the duration of any violation by Executive of such covenant. (d) NOTICE OF SUBSEQUENT EMPLOYMENT. While the covenant, pursuant to this Section 8.2, is in effect, Executive will give notice of the identity of Executive's subsequent employer to Company within ten (10) days after accepting any other employment. Company may notify such employer that Executive is obligated by this Agreement and, at Employer's election, furnish such employer with a copy of this Agreement or relevant portions thereof. ARTICLE IX. ----------- GENERAL PROVISIONS SECTION 9.1 INJUNCTIVE RELIEF AND ADDITIONAL REMEDY. Executive acknowledges that the damage that would be suffered by Employer as a result of a breach of the provisions of this Agreement (including any provision of Articles VII and VIII) would be irreparable and that an award of monetary damages to Employer for such a breach would be an inadequate remedy. Consequently, Employer will have the right, in addition to any other rights Employer may have, to obtain injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach or otherwise to specifically enforce any provision of this Agreement, and Employer will not be obligated to post bond or other security in seeking such relief. SECTION 9.2 COVENANTS OF ARTICLES VII AND VIII ARE ESSENTIAL AND INDEPENDENT COVENANTS. The covenants by Executive in Articles VII and VIII are essential provisions of this Agreement, and without Executive's agreement to comply with such covenants, Employer would not have entered into this Agreement or employed or continued the employment of Executive. Employer and Executive have independently consulted their respective counsel and have been advised in all respects concerning the reasonableness and propriety of such covenants, with specific regard to the nature of the business conducted by Employer. Executive's covenants in Articles VII and VIII are independent covenants and the existence of any claim by Executive against Employer or any of its affiliates under this Agreement or otherwise will not excuse Executive's breach of any covenant in Articles VII or VIII. If Executive's employment pursuant to this Agreement expires or is terminated, this Agreement will continue in full force and effect as is necessary or appropriate to enforce the covenants and agreements of Executive in Articles VII and VIII. SECTION 9.3 OFFSET. Employer will be entitled to offset against any and all amounts owing to Executive pursuant to this Agreement the amount of any and all claims that Employer may have against Executive. SECTION 9.4 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY THE EXECUTIVE. Executive represents and warrants to Employer that the execution and delivery by Executive of this Agreement do not, and the performance by Executive of Executive's obligations pursuant to this Agreement will not, with or without the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both (a) violate any judgment, writ, injunction, or order of any court, arbitrator, or governmental agency applicable to Executive; or (b) conflict with, result in the breach of any provisions of or the termination of, or constitute a default under, any agreement to which Executive is a party or by which Executive is or may be obligated. SECTION 9.5 OBLIGATIONS CONTINGENT ON PERFORMANCE. The obligations of Employer pursuant to this Agreement, including Employer's obligation to pay the compensation provided for in this Agreement, are contingent upon Executive's performance of Executive's obligations pursuant to this Agreement. SECTION 9.6 WAIVER. The rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by either party in exercising any right, power, or privilege pursuant to this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power, or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right resulting from this Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in writing signed by the other party; (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable, except in the specific instance for which it is given; and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take additional action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement. SECTION 9.7 BINDING EFFECT; DELEGATION OF DUTIES PROHIBITED. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall obligate, the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, and legal representatives, including any entity with which Employer may merge or consolidate or to which all or substantially all of its assets may be transferred.
