Based on that reported number of shares of common stock outstanding, and the registrant's intention of converting its Note into 600,000 shares of common stock, (see Item 6) Reporting Person has beneficial ownership of approximately 60.6% of the outstanding shares of common stock.

Item 6.

Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer


On December 13, 2005, the Registrant entered into an Amendatory Agreement with Duluth Venture Capital Partners, LLC (“Duluth”) with respect to $132,912 in accounts payable owed by the Registrant. Duluth had purchased such accounts payable from the Registrant’s sole officer and director, Stephen M. Siedow. The accounts payable reflect amounts advanced by Mr. Siedow for accounting, legal and other expenses of the Registrant.  Pursuant to the Amendatory Agreement, the Registrant agreed to convert the accounts payable into a Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”). The Note is non-interest bearing, payable on demand and convertible into 600,000 shares of Registrant common stock.  Duluth intends to immediately convert the Note into 600,000 shares of the Registrant. As a result of this transaction, Duluth beneficially owns 600,000 shares of Registrant common stock, the only class outstanding.  The Registrant has currently 390,100 outstanding shares of common stock, and therefore Duluth beneficially owns 60.6% of the Registrant’s common stock and is deemed to be a control person of the Registrant. Duluth has indicated to the Registrant that it is in negotiations with a non-affiliated third party to which Duluth will sell the 600,000 Shares, but has no knowledge of the identity of any acquistion candidate nor the industry in which that business operates. Duluth does not have



any contractual right to appoint a representative to the Board of Directors.


Other than as described above, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Person, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) between the person named in Item 2 and any person with respect to any securities of the issuer, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding  of  proxies,  naming  the  persons  with whom  such contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships have been entered into.
