PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider before buying shares in the offering. You should read the entire prospectus carefully.

Surge Technologies Corp.

We design, manufacture and sell a high quality line of electrical surge protection devices used in telecommunication networks. Our surge protection devices prevent electrical surge hazards from causing systems failures, damaging expensive equipment and harming personnel. Our products have various applications, ranging from residential use to industrial use. Our surge protectors are sold to the telecommunications industry throughout North America, including to major Telecoms.

Our business is principally operated through our subsidiary, Surge Technologies Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of Alberta, Canada. Surge Technologies Inc. is wholly owned by Surge Acquisition Corp., our Nevada subsidiary, which in turn is wholly owned by us.

Our principal executive offices are located at Suite 14, 700 58th Avenue SE, Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The telephone number for our executive offices is (403) 250-2442 and our fax number is (403) 250-2534.

The Offering

The offering of up to 3,653,426 shares of common stock is being made by the selling shareholders. The selling shareholders may sell all or any portion of the shares in this offering in one or more transactions through a variety of methods. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the selling shareholders.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following factors and other information in this prospectus when you evaluate our business and the forward-looking statements that we make in this prospectus.

Our business plan requires that we obtain additional financing in order to fund expenses associated with the development and commercialization of our generic and custom application electrical surge protection devices. If we are unable to obtain additional financing our future growth will be jeopardized.

Our business plan contemplates a rapid growth strategy which may in the short term limit our ability to conserve cash resources and achieve profitability. Our growth strategy requires investment in sales and marketing, infrastructure, and production capacity. We are also investing resources in research and development as required to position our company as a supplier of innovative surge protection products for new technology. In implementing our growth strategy, we do not expect to generate any significant profits and may operate at a loss. In order to fund our growth, our business plan contemplates an additional equity financing of $750,000. There is no guarantee that we will be successful at obtaining this financing, due to the condition of equity markets for junior companies and other possible reasons. If we are unable to obtain the financing as contemplated in our business plan, we may not be able to sustain a rapid growth strategy, and will have to reduce costs in order to remain viable as a business. This would likely result in a decreased valuation of our company.

Our sales are significantly derived from one customer. The loss of this customer would significantly reduce our overall sales, and possibly impact our ability to market our products as contemplated in our business plan.

3


As a result of our supply contract with a major telecommunications provider in Canada, we believe that we have obtained a foot-hold in our niche sector of the telecommunications industry, that can be used to leverage further business opportunities and the growth of our business. This supply contract represents approximately 60% of our overall revenues. This contract has resulted in our increasing expenditures on infrastructure and production. The loss of this key customer would result in substantially lower revenues and as a consequence require that we scale back our operations in order to reduce expenses. The loss of this customer would also affect our ability to achieve profitability on lower margins from efficiencies from scale of production. The value of our company would likely be diminished as a consequence.

Our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2002 were prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that we will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

We have incurred losses of $66,827 and $296,603 in the years ended March 2001 and 2002 respectively. There is no guarantee that we will become profitable in the future, or that profitability, if achieved, will be sustained. Our success will ultimately depend on our ability to generate revenues from operations, such that business development and marketing activities may be financed by revenues from operations instead of external financing. There are no assurances that future revenues will be sufficient to generate required funds to continue the business development and marketing activities.

Other companies with greater resources than we have are currently developing or have commercially available products that use similar technology to our products, and we may lose existing and potential market share as a result.

Our products are manufactured based on standard industry technology and requirements. Other companies with greater resources than us have products that perform similar functions to ours and which can be used in place of our products. While we have incorporated various proprietary features into our products that we believe differentiates our products from those of our competitors, our ability to quickly develop market share is to some extent limited by our size and financial resources, and accordingly we may be at a competitive disadvantage to other larger companies that can allocate significant resources to marketing, sales and distribution, as well as production. If we are unable to effectively compete against these larger competitors, we may lose existing and potential market share which would likely reduce the value of our company.

The loss or unavailability of Gordon McPhedran, our President and Chief Executive Officer, Jack Barbier, our Vice President Engineering and Quality Assurance, or Dale Olmstead, Vice President Operations, for an extended period of time could adversely affect our business operations and prospects.

Our success depends, to a significant degree, upon the effort and skill of Gordon McPhedran, our President and Chief Executive Officer, Jack Barbier, our Vice President Engineering and Quality Assurance, and Dale Olmstead, Vice President Operations. We do not maintain key man insurance on these key individuals. Due to their knowledge of our operations and products, the loss, incapacity, or unavailability of any one of these individuals could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of our operations, which would likely result in a decrease in the value of an investment in our common stock.

Because our common stock will likely trade at prices below $5.00 per share, and because we will not be listed on a national exchange, there are additional regulations imposed on broker-dealers trading in our shares that may make it more difficult for you to resell our shares.

Because of rules that apply to shares with a market price of less than $5.00 per share, known as the "penny stock rules", investors in this offering will find it more difficult to sell their securities. The penny stock rules will probably apply to trades in our shares. These rules in most cases require a broker-dealer to deliver a standardized

4


risk disclosure document to a potential purchaser of the securities, along with additional information including current bid and offer quotations, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account, and to make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction.

Our common stock currently has no market, and we cannot assure you that we will be successful at achieving a market and if no market develops it will be difficult to sell our common stock.

Prior to this offering there has not been a public market for our common stock. Before obtaining a quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board as planned, we must satisfy regulatory requirements including obtaining the approval of the NASD, which cannot be guaranteed. Even if we are successful at obtaining a quotation of our stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board there is no guarantee that an active public market for our common stock will develop or will be sustained after this offering. Without a publicly visible market for our common stock, it may be difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares or to determine a fair market value for their shares.

Five former shareholders of our wholly owned subsidiary, Gordon McPhedran, President and CEO, Jack Barbier, Vice President Engineering, Dale Olmstead, Vice President Operations, Harj Manhas, Vice President Corporate Finance, and Secura Investments, hold 65.2% of our common stock and have the ability to control management and affairs of Surge Technologies Corp. and to deter changes in control.

As a result of the acquisition of our subsidiary, Surge Acquisition Corp., we issued 10,660,017 shares of our common stock to five shareholders, representing 65.2% of our current issued and outstanding voting shares. As a result, such persons, acting together, will have the ability to control most matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election and removal of directors, and to control the management and affairs of Surge Technologies Corp. Accordingly, such concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of Boundless, impeding a merger, consolidation, take-over or other business combination or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which limits the ability of our stockholders to participate in opportunities that may increase the value of their stock.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. We intend to identify forward-looking statements in this prospectus using words such as "anticipates", "believes", "plans", "expects", "future", "intends" or similar expressions. These statements are based on our beliefs as well as assumptions we made using information currently available to us. Because these statements reflect our current views concerning future events, these statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual future results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Some, but not all, of the factors that may cause these differences include those discussed in the Risk Factors section. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this prospectus.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of our common stock by the selling shareholders.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The sale or distribution of the common stock covered by this prospectus may be effected directly to purchasers by the selling shareholders from time to time in the over-the-counter market at prices determined by them at the time of sale or in private transactions at a price of $0.40 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or other trading facility and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. The shares may be sold by one or more of the following methods: (a) a block trade in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares of common stock as an agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; (b) purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resales by that broker or dealer for its own account pursuant to this prospectus; (c) an over-the-counter sale in accordance with the rules applicable to such sales; (d) in ordinary brokerage transactions or transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers; (e) in transactions otherwise than on any stock exchange or in the over-the-counter market, including privately negotiated transactions; and (f) pursuant to Rule 144. Upon our shares being quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, any of these transactions may be effected at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market prices, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated or fixed prices, in each case as determined by the selling shareholder, or by agreement between the selling shareholder and underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents, or purchasers. There is no assurance that any of the selling shareholders will sell any or all of the shares offered by them.

In effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholders in amounts to be negotiated prior to the sale. The selling shareholders, and any brokers, dealers or agents that participate in the distribution of the shares may be deemed to be underwriters, and any profit on the sale of the common stock by them and any discounts, concessions or commissions received by any underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

Under the securities laws of certain states, the shares may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in that state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is met.

We have advised the selling shareholders that while they are engaged in a distribution of the shares included in this prospectus they are required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the selling shareholders, any affiliated purchasers, and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in such distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with the distribution of that security. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares offered hereby in this prospectus.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

This offering is solely for the purpose of allowing our shareholders to sell their stock. The selling shareholders may sell their shares when the registration statement becomes effective, or they may elect to sell some or all of their shares at a later date.

Prior to this offering there has been no market for our common stock. The offering price of the shares was arbitrarily determined and bears no relationship to assets, book value, net worth, earnings, actual results of operations, or any other established investment criteria. Among the factors considered in determining the price were our historical sales levels, estimates of our prospects, the background and capital contributions of management, the degree of control which the current shareholders desired to retain, current conditions of the securities markets and other information.

We have 16,561,352 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The most recent sale of our common stock completed on January 10, 2002, when a total of 907,352 shares of our common stock were issued from our treasury at a price of $0.25 per share.

MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK

There is currently no established market for our common stock. We are proposing to apply for quotation on the NASD Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board in conjunction with this offering. In order to be approved for quotation, we must be current in our filing obligations with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements and our market maker must apply for and obtain clearance from the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) to commence trading. There are no guarantees that we will be approved for quotation on the Bulletin Board.

There were 55 holders of record and beneficially of our common stock as of January 10, 2003, holding a total of 16,561,352 shares.

There are currently no outstanding options, warrants or other securities convertible into shares of our common stock. All our shares are subject to resale restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933.

This offering covers the sale of 3,653,426 shares of our currently outstanding common stock held by the selling shareholders. Shares offered and sold to the public through this prospectus will no longer be subject to Rule 144 and may be subsequently resold in the secondary market. Any shares subject to this offering, but not sold through this prospectus will remain restricted and may only be resold pursuant to Rule 144. The following table summarizes the hold periods applicable to our common stock under U.S. federal securities laws:

There are no contractual restrictions on the resale of the outstanding common stock.

In general, Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act provides that securities may be sold if there is current public information available regarding the issuer and the securities have been held at least one year. Rule 144 also includes restrictions on the amount of securities sold, the manner of sale and requires notice to be filed with the SEC. Under Rule 144 a minimum of one year must elapse between the later of the date of the acquisition of the securities from the issuer or from an affiliate of the issuer, and any resale under the Rule. If a one-year period has elapsed since the date the securities were acquired, the amount of restricted securities that may be sold for the account of any person within any three-month period, including a person who is an affiliate of the issuer, may not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock or the average weekly trading volume in the over-the-counter market during the four calendar weeks preceding the date on which notice of sale is filed with the SEC. If a two-year period has elapsed since the date the securities were acquired from the issuer or from an affiliate of the issuer, a seller who is not an affiliate of the issuer at any time during the three months preceding a sale is entitled to sell the shares without regard to volume limitations, manner of sale provisions or notice requirements. Affiliates of the issuer are subject to an ongoing volume restriction pursuant to Rule 144 on resales of shares held by them.

Dividends Policy

We have not paid dividends on our common stock since our inception. Dividends on common stock are within the discretion of the Board of Directors and are payable from profits or capital legally available for that purpose. It is our current policy to retain any future earnings to finance the operations and growth of our business. Accordingly, we do not anticipate paying any dividends on common stock in the foreseeable future.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

The following table sets forth the names of the selling stock holders and information as to their share ownership and shares which may be offered for sale pursuant to this prospectus. Because the selling shareholders may sell all or part of the share of common stock offered hereby, the following table assumes that all shares offered under this prospectus have been sold by the selling shareholders. The offered shares of common stock may be offered from time to time by each of the selling shareholders named below. However the selling shareholders are under no obligation to sell all or any portion of the shares of common stock offered, neither are the selling shareholders obligated to sell such shares of common stock immediately under this prospectus. Particular selling shareholders may not have a present intention of selling their shares and may offer less than the number of shares indicated. The selling shareholders may also sell their shares under Rule 144 while this offering is effective.

BUSINESS

Overview

Copper wire technology is a key component of the telecommunications industry and is universally used in connecting telecommunications networks to end-users. Every building and household in North America using copper wire telephone line has a primary electrical surge protection device inserted between the outside telephone line and the inside connection to each phone, fax or computer. We design, manufacture, and sell several product lines of electrical surge protection devices for use by the telecommunications industry. These electrical surge protection devices are called Building Entrance Terminals or BET’s. Our product lines of BET devices provide surge protection options ranging from protection for a single residential telephone line to protection of in excess of 100 telephone lines for commercial installations. We also manufacture surge protection products that are customized to suite specific requirements of our customers.

Corporate History

Our business operations commenced in December of 1998, and are conducted primarily through our wholly owned subsidiary Surge Technologies Inc. Our Surge Technologies subsidiary was formed under the laws of Alberta, Canada, on March 31, 2001 as the result of the merger of two Alberta corporations, Barmac & Associates Inc. and Surge Technologies Inc. The resulting company retained the name Barmac & Associates Inc. The merger resulted in the integration of the pre-merger operations of Barmac and Surge, being respectively, the marketing of electrical surge protection products, and the manufacture of electrical surge protection products. Both Barmac and Surge where

incorporated in Alberta in December of 1998, at which time they commenced operations. Prior to the merger, Barmac and Surge were companies under common control. On June 13, 2002, Barmac changed its name to Surge Technologies Inc.

We acquired our Alberta subsidiary, Surge Technologies Inc., pursuant to the terms of a share exchange agreement dated September 3, 2002 as amended by agreement dated November 7, 2002. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, our wholly owned Nevada subsidiary, Surge Acquisition Corporation, acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Surge Technologies Inc. in exchange for the issuance of 12,000,000 shares of our common stock to the shareholders of Surge Technologies Inc. As a result of the acquisition, the former shareholders of Surge Technologies Inc. collectively obtained a controlling interest in our parent company, Surge Technologies Corp. The following chart illustrates the resulting corporate structure.

Our parent company, Surge Technologies Corp. was incorporated on January 31, 2000 under the laws of the Sate of Nevada under the name Boundless Vision Incorporated. Prior to the acquisition of Surge Technologies Inc., we had no substantive business operations. In connection with the acquisition of Surge Technologies Inc., we changed our name to Surge Technologies Corp. effective November 21, 2002.

Industry Overview

The design and manufacture of electrical surge protection devices for telecommunications purposes is a niche sector of the telecommunications industry. The demand for our products is related to technological change and overall growth within the telecommunications industry.

The typical telecommunication infrastructure within North America consists of a series of telephone line and fibre optic cable networks that rely on sophisticated switches and relays. These switches and relays are sensitive to electrical surges that may flow through telephone lines. Electrical surges are transient increases in voltage and current that can occur from a number of causes, including lightning strikes, current from a power line that has come into contact with a telecommunications cable, lightning strikes along or nearby a network cable, induction from other proximate electrical power wires, power faults, electrostatic discharge or other electrical hazards. Preventing these electrical surge hazards from harming people, damaging expensive equipment, and causing system downtime requires the installation of reliable surge protection products throughout the network.

Surge protectors are installed at various points on the network. These points include at local telecommunications hubs through which network conduits are routed, point of entry between a network line and an end-user commercial building or residence, and localized protection within an end-user commercial building or residence.

We currently manufactures surge protection devices for point-of entry protection of commercial and residential telecommunications lines, as well as for localized or station protection within a building. We are also currently developing new products for protection of telecommunications hubs.

Over the last two decades, micro-chip technology and other technologies have been developed that use the telecommunications networks. These products are significantly more sensitive to fluctuations in voltage and current than the traditional telephone. This has reinforced the need for both primary and secondary surge protection devices that are sensitive to smaller fluctuations in voltage and current than previously required to protect traditional analog equipment. Primary surge protection devices typically provide surge protection at the point of entry into a building. Secondary surge protection devices are typically used within a building often in close proximity to the equipment being protected.

Presently every building and household in North America connected to a telephone line has a surge protection device in place between outside telephone lines and inside connections to telephones or computers. In a building, surge protection devices are installed at the point of emergence of telecommunications service cables typically through an exterior wall or floor. Accordingly, these electrical surge protection devices are aptly termed Building Entrance Terminals or BET’s. A BET has an input, output, a ground connection and one or more inputs for surge protection modules. The capacity of any BET varies from a single telephone line to in excess of one hundred telephone lines. The manufacture of BET’s has been largely standardized throughout the industry, however various manufacturers offer products with different features, quality and characteristics.

A BET does not provide surge protection on its own, but rather requires the insertion of a surge protection module for each telecommunications line to be protected. A surge protection module is a self contained plug-in device that is commonly referred to as a 5 pin protector module. Accordingly, a BET with a capacity of 50 lines may have up to 50 modules plugged in, or one for each line. A 5 pin protection module has a current input, output and a connection to ground. In the event of an overvoltage situation, the module contains some physical material, such as a gas or solid, that allows excess voltage to be redirected to ground, thereby maintaining a relatively constant current output to the end-user equipment. The greater the sensitivity of the end-user equipment, the more sensitive the module must be to current fluctuations. Modules used with BET’s are largely standardized throughout the industry. The design and manufacture of 5 pin protector modules is complementary to the design and manufacture of BET’s, although a manufacturer of a BET may outsource the 5 pin protector modules.

Surge protection devices are typically designed to protect surges through traditional copper wire telephone lines. Over the last 10 years, the significant increases in voice, data and internet traffic over telecommunications lines have resulted in higher capacity fibre optic cables replacing traditional copper wire cables. Fibre optic cables are expensive to install and accordingly are used primarily for major network conduits. However, copper wire cables continue to be predominantly used throughout North America to connect major network conduits to end users. Stated otherwise, copper wire technology continues to be used for the “last mile” connections between networks and businesses and households.

The continued use of copper wire technology for last mile connections combined with the increased volumes of voice, data and internet traffic over modern telecommunications networks has resulted in integration of old technology and new technology. In order to integrate these technologies, research and development in the telecommunications industry has resulted in innovative software and hardware products being developed that can manage higher traffic volumes over the existing copper-wire infrastructure. As a result, new technology applied to the existing copper-wire infrastructure has had the indirect effect of revitalizing copper wire communications, as well as generating a niche sector of the telecommunications industry for those suppliers that offer products that enhance the use of copper wire connections, including surge protection products.

Our Products

We design, manufacture and sell high quality electrical surge protection products. Our products are used by telecommunications companies for primary surge protection for end-users connected to copper-wire telephone linesks. All

11


 

our products are designed to protect end-user electronic equipment from temporary increases in voltage travelling through telecommunications lines. As many of our products are based on standardized technology, our products can be integrated with similar products from other manufacturers.

The choice of an appropriate surge protection product is dependant on the number of telecommunications lines requiring protection as well as the sensitivity of the electronic equipment connected to the lines. We have several product lines that provide a range of surge protection options based on the requirements of any particular telecommunications network and the number of telecommunication lines protected. Our current product lines are building entrance terminals (BET’s), 5 pin modules and station protectors. These are described in more detail below. We also manufacture customized surge protection equipment to suite specific customer requirements.

Our BET’s are available in a number of configurations based on type of input and output cables and wiring used in the network, number of telecommunications lines involved, and location of installation. Configurations include terminals that protect as few as 6 lines, to as many as 100 lines per BET. In the 100 line configuration BET’s can be connected in series to handle larger installations. The Company has engineered a number of design and feature upgrades over BET’s offered by other manufacturers, that improve the overall application, strength and ease-of-install for the field technicians. We also manufacture surge protection products that are customized to suit a specific customers needs. This typically involves customized configurations for our BET’s.

Our BET’s accommodate industry standard 5 pin protection modules, which are plugged into our BET’s in order to provide surge protection. These protection modules are analogous to self-resetting fuses inserted into a fuse box. Our 5 pin protection modules are offered in two formats, a gas tube module and a solid state module. We manufacture the gas tube module in-house, and outsource the solid state module from our electronics production and sales partner. Our 5 pin gas protection module provides fast reacting protection against voltage surges before they can cause damage to telecommunication networks and end-user equipment. The gas tube provides protection against small fluctuations in voltage and current, and accordingly is suited to sensitive networks such as Digital Subscriber Lines “DSL”. The solid state protection module uses integrated semiconductor technology to provide similar protection.

We also produce station protector devices, which are an alternative form of surge protection device. These devices are primarily located in telecommunications interface boxes that are placed in between incoming and outgoing network communications. Station protectors are used to protect smaller connections known as pair counts, such as household voice and data lines. A one pair count would include single voice or data line. Protectors may be designed to operate on short-duration over-voltage, long-duration over-voltage situations, or both.

The surge protection products manufactured in our facilities are covered by a six year warranty on product defects resulting from faulty workmanship or materials.

New Products

In order to take advantage of potential market opportunities, as well as to keep pace with changes in the telecommunications industry, we are continuously reviewing additional product offerings. We have two engineers allocated to research and development on a full-time basis. Other engineers in the company all work on product development on an as needed basis. The areas of new product development we are in the process of designing are:

Central Office Unit (Foreign and North American models): The Central office is considered as the first line of defence in the telecommunication circuit. The signal that enters a telephone unit originates at the central office. This requires a multi-pair block which provides over-voltage protection for that circuit.

 

12


 

Customer premise unit: Allows for quick and easy installation up to and including six lines where a “Building Entrance Terminal” is considered to be larger than what is required for the application. We are in the process of designing a multi-use customer premise unit, which may also have other applications such as metering or small monitoring equipment for power utilities as well as telecommunications.

Two Pair customer premise enclosure: A small customer premise unit which contains up to two protection modules (station protector type for voice or data lines).

IDC Station Protector: Insulation Displacement Connector which we are incorporating into our Station Protector is a quick connect system that does not require a tool for connection. These protection devices are primarily located inside a Network Interface Device “NID” box and are mainly used to protect smaller pair counts such as household voice and data lines. This method will be the preferred choice for future installations as many systems operate on a higher voltage, previously the contacts on these types of devices were exposed, the IDC connection method will limit the exposure for the installation personnel.

Hybrid Solid State-Gas Tube Protection Module: Combination Solid State (fast reacting, time is actually measured in nano-seconds) and conventional gas tube, which is better known for high current carrying capabilities. The solid state portion of this device reacts to a transient voltage quicker than the conventional gas tube technology, however if the current carrying capability of the solid state device is exceeded then the gas tube will take over and continue to shunt (to ground) the transient voltage.

Grounding Board: We have a Patent Pending Multi-purpose grounding system that allows more flexibility for grounding and a higher level of protection which also allows a reduction in the amount of cross talk and provides a cost reduction in the manufacturing of the Building Entrance line of product.

Cable, DSL and Fibre Optic: While our existing product line supports the copper wire infrastructure of the telecommunications industry, we are also planning and researching new products to provide protection for low voltage digital transmissions (DSL) as well as enclosure products for conversion of fibre optic to copper for last mile installation . We believe these planned products will be of interest to our established customer groups and distributors, and represent areas of potential growth within our industry sector.

Production

We manufacture our Building Entrance Terminals, 5 pin gas protection modules and station protectors at our production facility located in Calgary, Alberta. We outsource our 5 pin solid state protection modules from Teccor Electronics Inc. a major electronics manufacturer. Our production and manufacturing is contained in a 10,000 square foot facility attached to our corporate offices.

The Market and Marketing Plan

Our current market is primarily North America, however we are expanding our marketing and sales channels internationally. Every commercial and residential complex in North America where telephone services exist is protected by a primary electrical surge protection device. We recognize three customer groups that we market our current product lines to, and that we expect to market any future products that we may offer. These groups are summarized as follows:

  • Local Exchange Carriers: In Canada includes Telus, Bell Canada and various other Provincial Telecoms. The Canadian marketplace for the telecommunications industry accounts for approximately 10% of the total North American marketplace. In the United States these carriers include Verizon, Quest, Bell South and other regional Bell Operation Companies which represent approximately 65%-70% of the access lines in the United States.


13


 

  • Competitive Local Exchange Carrier’s: Since deregulation of the telecom markets, a number of niche companies have entered the market with a combined market share of 30% to 35% of the U.S. market, and a smaller percentage of the Canadian market.
  • Distributors and Distribution Networks: These are generally used to sell smaller product orders to Competitive Local Exchange Carrier’s and other contractors.

Distribution and Sales

The majority of our sales are as a result of direct marketing to the corporate customer. These customers are identified by our marketing department. In the case of a telephone company, products are submitted to the engineering department and upon approval, a request for proposal is provided to select vendors for response. We estimate that 50% of our business is as a result of direct marketing. The direct marketing approach has resulted in supply contracts with a national Canadian telecommunications provider.

We also utilize US and Canadian distributors of telecommunications products. This is a more cost-effective method of distribution at the present-time, rather than creating, training and deploying a national and international sales force. We currently have distribution relationships with a number of distributors, as well as a number of agency agreements with telecommunications manufacturers and wholesalers, in Canada and the United States. We currently have U.S. distributors that market our products. Our current non-U.S. contract orders are mainly spot orders from distributors for use by competitive local exchange carriers and contractors. These orders are received on a steady basis. In conjunction with our largest vendor we have manufactured a series of products exclusively for distribution to US customers. One of the largest end users of our technology is a US based local exchange carrier.

With our strategic US vendor relationship we were able to renew our contract with a national Canadian telecom for the supply of BET’s and our protection modules for an additional three years. This contract represents sales of approximately CDN$2,300,000 per year over three years, or 60% of our total sales.

Approximately 60% of our sales are made to Canadian and 40% to U.S. customers. We are expanding our marketing into foreign markets, however we currently do not have any significant purchase orders.

Advertising

Our major forms of advertising are product brochures and the corporate website. Our marketing plan places most of its emphasis on developing brand recognition by targeting supply agreements with large telecom companies and distributors

Trade Shows

We currently attend three industry specific trade shows per year. This number may decrease in the following fiscal year. We have experienced that the marginal dollar benefit of trade show participation is less than other promotional media (print ad, direct mail, etc.). Therefore, we intend to be very selective in the trade shows we attend. Our focus will be distributor and dealer targeted shows rather than end user shows.

Pricing Strategy

Our production facility is in Canada which provides us with a competitive advantage due to the favourable exchange rate currently experienced with the U.S. dollar. The current exchange rates permits us to manufacture our products at lower

14


 

cost in than the majority of our U.S. counterparts. The North American Free Trade Agreement has removed tariffs on cross border sales for many Canadian manufactured goods.

Competition

Competitive Summary

There are several competitors within this niche sector. Competitors make similar products with similar uses and capabilities which are typically based on industry wide standards. Surge does however use proprietary technologies for the design of its products. We believe we have a competitive advantage over some of its larger competitors due to the ability to quickly research, design, test, obtain UL approvals, manufacture and sell into a product market. We believe the large integrated multi-national competitors cannot react quickly or deliver smaller custom orders.

These products combined with a competitive price advantage are the marketing tactics used to generate product sales. We believe our ongoing relationship with our customers has been further reinforced with the demonstratedability of Surge Technologies Inc. to constantly and continuously meet and exceed the delivery, quality, and service performance criteria specified.

Competitive Threats

We rely on our ability to quickly research, design, test, obtain approvals, manufacture and sell into a product market. We also have the advantage of low production costs relative to our U.S. competition. Our products are positioned in the market as robust and high quality products in relation to lower quality and cheaper products by foreign manufacturers. In markets where the penetration costs are too great and would be a drain on the current resources, our business plan is to act as supplier for some telecommunications companies that could otherwise be considered competitors.

Description Of Property

Property

Our executive office and manufacturing facility is located in Calgary, Alberta, where we currently lease 16,000 square feet. We lease this space under an industry standard operating lease with a term expiring June 30, 2007 renewable at the option of Surge Technologies Inc. Current monthly lease obligations are $7,374.58. We believe that our current facilities are adequate and are suitable for our current use, and that suitable additional facilities will be available, when needed, upon commercially reasonable terms. Our facilities are adequately insured against perils in a manner consistent with industry practice.

Intellectual Property

We will rely on a combination of patent laws trade secret laws, non-disclosure and other contractual agreements, and technical measures to protect the confidential information, know-how, and proprietary rights relating to our electrical surge protection products and other Surge products. We have contractual rights with respect to registered North American trademarks and Trade names including the following: our Surge logo, Surge Technologies Inc., SurgeTech and Barmac.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our audited Financial Statements and Notes thereto for the period ended March 31, 2002, and our un-audited Financial Statements and notes thereto for the six months ended September 30, 2002, and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

Overview

The substantive operations of our business are conducted by our subsidiary, while the parent company provides certain administrative and strategic decision making functions. Our wholly owned subsidiary Surge Technologies Inc., incorporated in 1998, designs manufactures and sells a number of generic and custom application electrical surge protection devices. Our current product line consists of a variety of configurations of Building Entrance Terminals, two five pin surge protection modules, and a station surge protection device. Our products are sold to telecommunications companies throughout North America. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, approximately 40% of our sales were to U.S. customers, and 60% to Canadian customers. We are also developing new products in order to expand our product lines and to keep pace with changes in telecommunications technology.

Results of Operations

For the six months ended September 2002 compared to September 2001

Revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2002 were $868,783, substantially the same as for the six month period ending September 30, 2001 which were $864,188. The lack of growth during the six month period ending September 30, 2002 was largely due to the downturn in the telecom sector.

The cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales was 87.3% for the six months ended September 30, 2002. This is an increase of 2.5% over the same six-month period in the prior year. The increase of cost of goods sold was the result of the increase in modules sold in the three-months ending June 30, 2002. The modules are a “sell-through” product and have a lower margin than our manufactured products. We have two types of products: manufactured products and sell-through products. Our cost of goods sold on the manufactured product’s is less than on the sell-through products. As a result changes in the sales mix will have an impact on the overall cost of goods sold percentage. We have designed manufactured products to replace the sell-through products. As these manufactured products replace the sell-through products during the next year margins will improve.

Gross profit for the six months ended September 30, 2002 of $110,660 declined by $20,013 from the corresponding period in the prior year. This decrease was the result of the change in the product mix for the 2002 period.

Operating, General and Administrative expenses for the six-months ended September 30, 2002 of $323,926 increased by $6,667 or 2.1% over the same period in the prior year. This increase resulted primarily from the professional fees resulting from the 2001 and 2002 audits being conducted during this six-month period.

Amortization expense increased for the six-month period ended September 30, 2002 when compared to the six-months ended September 30, 2001 by $4,044 to $10,940. This increase resulted from the purchase of additional capital property and the corresponding amortization as well as the increase in intangible assets.

Interest expense paid to a shareholder declined by 13.8% from $16,822 for the six-months ending September 30, 2001 to the $14,502 incurred for the six-months ending September 30, 2002. This decrease resulted from the shareholder converting a portion of the loan into share capital.

 

17


For the year ended March 31, 2002 as compared to March 31, 2001

Revenues for the 12 months ended March 31, 2002 were $1,602,441 an increase of 13.3% over the corresponding 12 month period ended March 31, 2001. This increase in sales was primarily the result of increasing sales to the U.S. market.

The cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales declined by 8.2% to 84.0% for the period ended March 31, 2002 when compared to the period ended March 31, 2001 when the percentage was 92.2%. This decline in cost of goods sold was primarily the result of redesign of the products and their components resulting in lower manufacturing input costs and improved assembly efficiencies. A contributing factor was the expansion of the customer base. We entered into a long-term supply contract with a major Canadian Telecom utility in February of 2001. The cost of goods sold percentage on this contract was higher than for sales to other customers. The marketing value of obtaining this long-term utility contract in establishing the quality and reliability of our products, with other customers, made the increased cost of goods margin a strategic decision on the part our management. As the customer base diversifies and the planned improvements in the design of the products and increased manufacturing efficiencies are achieved the overall cost of goods sold percentage is expected to continue to decline on a year over year basis.

Gross profit for the 12 months ended March 31, 2002 increase by 133% to $256,306 from $110,142 for the 12 months ended March 31, 2001. This increase was the result of an increase in sales as well as the addition of higher profit margin U.S. customers to the customer sales mix.

Operating, general and administrative expenses increased to $552,909 for the period ended March 31, 2002 from $176,969 for the period ended March 31, 2001 representing a 212% increase year over year. This increase resulted from increases in staffing and compensation levels it paid to staff as well as other costs from increased sales and manufacturing activities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We do not have an operating line of credit or a term loan from a financial institution consequently bank indebtedness at March 31 and September 30, 2002 is nil. We did have monies on deposit of $3,595 on September 30, 2002 and $1,093 on March 31, 2002.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. We incurred a loss of $213,266 for the six month period ended September 30, 2002 (September 30, 2001 - $186,586), and had a working capital deficit of $220,393 at September 30, 2002.

Working capital at September 30, 2002 of negative $220,393 produced a current ratio of 0.70 to 1.0. On March 31, 2002 working capital was negative $193,773 and the current ratio was 0.72 to 1.0.

Investing activities consist of the acquisition of property and equipment and the development of new products (intangibles). For the six months ended September 30, 2002 we invested $10,907 in property and equipment. For the year ended March 31, 2002 we invested $25,580.

We have funded business operations from product sales, equity investment and working capital. We expect to achieve break-even operations in the next year and fund operations from positive cash flows. Our business plan contemplates an equity financing of up to $750,000 for development and marketing of our electrical surge devices. If we are not successful at raising this amount, we will have to reduce expenses associated with all operations in order to avoid continued losses.

18


 

The ability to raise the financing is subject to market conditions, which currently do not favour investments in the telecom sector. A reduction in expenses would jeopardize our ability to carry out our new business strategy and consequently reduce or eliminate future growth, which would adversely affect the value of an investment in our company.

To date we have not invested in derivative securities or any other financial instruments that involve a high level of complexity or risk. We plan to invest any excess cash in investment grade interest bearing securities.

We believe it will meet working capital requirements for the next 12 months from invested capital and operating activities. The expected growth of the business will have to be partially funded by additional equity to support the higher inventory and accounts receivable levels. There can be no assurance additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be unable to develop or enhance our products, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures.

Our only material commitments as at September 30, 2002 are a supply agreement with a major national Canadian telecommunications provider and our lease for our building premises.

There are no known trends or uncertainties that will have a material impact on revenues.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies include the following:

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We make periodic reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 121, an impairment loss would be recognized when estimates of undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of an asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount. An impairment loss would be measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value. No such impairment losses have been identified by us for the six month period ended September 30, 2002 and for the years ended March 31, 2002 and 2001.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the sale of our electrical surge devices is recognized when product is sold, title passes to the purchaser and cost thereof is removed from inventory. Revenues that have been prepaid or invoiced but do not yet qualify for recognition under our policies are reflected as deferred revenues.

Inventory

Inventory of raw materials and supplies are valued at the lower of actual cost and replacement cost. Inventory of work in process and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

Contractual Cash Obligations

We have entered into agreements for the lease of office premises as at September 30, 2002. As at September 30, 2002, contractual cash obligations (lease and premises) for the years ending after March 31, 2003 are as follows:

  2003 $31,058  
  2004 $64,032  
  2005 $66,110  
  2006 $69,531  
  2007 $68,279  
  2008 $17,458  

 

19


 

The above includes the basic rent payments for new lease agreement of office, production and warehouse premises entered into by us, commencing July 1, 2002 and ending June 30, 2007.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination and SFAS No. 142 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination whether acquired individually or with a group of other assets. These standards require all future business combinations to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill will no longer be amortized but instead will be subject to impairment tests at least annually. We are required to adopt SFAS No. 141 and 142 on a prospective basis as of September 30, 2002; however, certain provisions of these new standards may also apply to any acquisitions concluded subsequent to September 30, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No.141 and SFAS No.142 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in 2002.

In August 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement supersedes SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of. Although retaining many of the fundamental recognition and measurement provisions of SFAS No. 121, the new rules significantly change the criteria that would have to be met to classify an asset as held-for-sale. The statement also supersedes certain provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions, and will require expected future operating losses from discontinued operations to be displayed in discontinued operations in the period(s) in which the losses are incurred rather than as of the measurement date, as presently required. As required by SFAS No. 144, we will adopt this new statement on April 1, 2003. We are currently evaluating this statement but do not expect that it will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. Among other things, SFAS No. 145 rescinds SFAS No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and the amendment to SFAS No. 4, SFAS No. 64, and Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. Through this rescission, SFAS No. 145 eliminates the requirement (in both SFAS No. 4 and SFAS No. 64) that gains and losses from the extinguishments of debt be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect. Generally, SFAS No. 145 is effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002. We do not expect SFAS No. 145 to have a material impact on our results of operations or its financial position.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146 Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS No. 146 requires that the liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized at its fair value when the liability is incurred. Under previous guidance, a liability for certain exit costs was recognized at the date that management committed to an exit plan, which was generally before the actual liability has been incurred. As SFAS No. 146 is effective only for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, we do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on our financial statements.

There were no disagreements with former accountants. The board of directors unanimously approved the use of James Stafford, Chartered Accountants. The change of auditors was a result of the completion of the acquisition by Surge of our operating subsidiary, Surge Technologies Inc.

AUDITORS’ REPORT

Page F-2

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Surge Technologies Corp.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Surge Technologies Corp. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of operations and deficit, cash flows, and changes in shareholders’ equity for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements bases on our audits.

We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at March 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency 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 1. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Boundless Vision Incorporated and Subsidiaries
Notes to Financial Statements

1. Nature of Operations and Going Concern
   
 
Boundless Vision Incorporated (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, United States of America, on January 31, 2000. Initially, the business of the Company was to prognosticate trends, including business and economic trends, business cycles, demographics and related areas. The Company, through the acquisition of Surge Technologies Inc. commenced the production and sales of electronic communication equipment. This acquisition of Surge Technologies Inc. is still subject to regulatory approval by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The consolidated financial statements presented are those of Boundless Vision Incorporated, and its subsidiaries Surge Technologies Inc. (“Surge”), a Canadian company, and Surge Acquisition Corp. (“Surge Nevada”), a company incorporated in the State of Nevada (collectively, the “Company”). References to “Boundless” relate to transactions of Boundless Vision Incorporated prior to the merger with Surge and Surge Nevada discussed in note 3. References to Surge and Surge Nevada relate to transactions of Surge and Surge Nevada respectively prior to the merger discussed in note 3. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The consolidated condensed interim financial statements presented herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make information presented not misleading.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. For further information, refer to the audited financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Form 10-KSB filing for December 31, 2001. The Company follows the same accounting policies in preparation of interim reports.

Results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended March 31, 2003.

The Company’s financial statements as at September 30, 2002 and for the three and six month periods then ended have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has a loss of $213,266 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2002 (September 30, 2001 - $186,586), and has a working capital deficit of $220,393 at September 30, 2002.

Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital. However, based on its prior demonstrated ability to raise capital, management believes that the Company’s capital resources should be adequate to continue operating and maintain its business strategy

32


Page F-8

 
during fiscal 2003. However, if the Company is unable to raise additional capital in the near future, due to the Company’s liquidity problems, management expects that the Company will need to curtail operations, liquidate assets, seek additional capital on less favorable terms and/or pursue other remedial measures. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
   
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
   
 
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Inventory

Inventory of raw materials and supplies are valued at the lower of actual cost and replacement cost. Inventory of work in process and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of each asset using the following annual rates, with half the rate being applied in the year of acquisition.

    Equipment 30%   declining balance
  Injection moulds 10 year   straight line
  Leasehold improvements 5 year   straight line
  Manufacturing license 5 year   straight line
  Office furniture and fixtures
20%
  declining balance
  Patents and trademarks pending
10 year
  straight line
  Tools
100%
   


The cost of normal maintenance and repairs is charged to operating expenses as incurred. Material expenditures, which increase the life of an asset, are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated remaining useful life of the asset. The cost of properties sold, or otherwise disposed of, and the related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts, and any gains or losses are reflected in current operations.
   
  Intangible Assets
   
 
Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit. Management of the Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of intangible

 

33


Page F-9

 
assets and takes into account events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that indicate that an impairment exists.
   
  Loss Per Common Share
   
 
The Company has adopted SFAS No. 128 which establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share (EPS) for entities with publicly held common stock. The standard requires presentation of two categories of EPS – basic EPS and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. The Company had no potentially dilutive securities at September 30, 2002 or 2001. Accordingly, basic and diluted EPS are the same for each of the three and six-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. The EPS calculation for the periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 was performed assuming the historical 4,907,728 shares outstanding for Surge were converted into the 12,000,000 Boundless shares as of April 1, 2001.
   
 
For the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2002, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding was 11,767,014 (September 30, 2001 – 1,030,796) and 10,813,857 (September 30, 2001 – 1,082,034).
   
  Revenue Recognition
   
 
Revenue is recognized when product is sold, title passes to the purchaser and cost thereof is removed from inventory.
   
  Income Taxes
   
 
The Company provides for income taxes using the asset and liability method as prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amount of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
   
  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 amounts reported in these financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 

34


Page F-10

 
Financial Instruments

The carrying value of financial instruments potentially subject to valuation risk, consisting principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable approximates fair value, because of the short-term maturity of these instruments or actual interest rates that approximated the Company’s effective borrowing rate.

Comprehensive Income

Components of comprehensive income are net income and all other non-owner changes in equity. SFAS No. 130 requires an enterprise to (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement, and (b) display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. The Company has no items of comprehensive income for the six-month period ended September 30, 2002 or 2001.

Foreign Currency

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into United States dollars at the rates in effect on the transaction date. Exchange gains or losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated monetary items are included in the statement of operations.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
   
3. Acquisition of Surge Technologies Inc.
   
 

On September 3, 2002, Boundless completed a business combination with Surge, a company incorporated in the province of Alberta, Canada, and Surge Nevada which is incorporated in the state of Nevada. Surge manufactures and sells electronic communications equipment. Surge Nevada is essentially an inactive company with no operations or assets. This business transaction is still subject to regulatory approval by the SEC.

Boundless issued 12,000,000 common shares to 100% of the former shareholders of Surge in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Surge which totaled 4,907,728 shares. The shares issued constitute 80% of the common stock of the Company after completion of the merger, and have been valued at $12,000, the par-value of the common shares issued by Boundless on the date of closing. The issue of 80% of the common stock of Boundless to the former shareholders of Surge, the right of such shareholders to appoint a majority of the directors of Boundless, and the continuation of the Surge management team is deemed to constitute a change of control of Boundless.

On September 3, 2002, Boundless purchased 100% of the shares of Surge Nevada for $1.

As a result of the change in control discussed above, for financial reporting purposes, the acquisition of Surge by Boundless has been treated as a reverse acquisition. Surge is the continuing entity for financial reporting purposes and as a result of Boundless’ plan to cease its operations at the time of the merger, the acquisition has been treated as a recapitalization of the
   


35


Page F-11

 
Company. Accordingly, no goodwill has been recorded as a result of the acquisition. Historical shareholders’ equity of Surge has been retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares received in the combination after giving effect to any differences in the par value of Boundless and the Surge’s stock with an offset to additional paid in capital. Any stock options, warrants or commitments to issue capital stock of Surge existing on or before the acquisition were extinguished as part of the acquisition. For legal purposes, Boundless will remain the surviving entity.

Surge Technologies Corp. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Financial Statements for Years ended March 31, 2002 and 2001

1. Nature of Operations and Going Concern
   
 
Surge Technologies Corp. (formerly “Boundless Vision Incorporated”)(the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, United States of America, on January 31, 2000. Initially, the business of the Company was to prognosticate trends, including business and economic trends, business cycles, demographics and related areas. The Company, through the acquisition of Surge Technologies Inc. on September 3, 2002, commenced the production and sales of electronic communication equipment (Note 3). This acquisition of Surge Technologies Inc. is still subject to regulatory approval by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The consolidated financial statements presented are those of Surge Technologies Corp., and its subsidiaries Surge Technologies Inc. (“Surge”), a Canadian company, and Surge Acquisition Corp. (“Surge Nevada”), a company incorporated in the State of Nevada (collectively, the “Company”). References to “Boundless” relate to transactions of Boundless Vision Incorporated prior to the merger with Surge and Surge Nevada discussed in Note 3. References to Surge and Surge Nevada relate to transactions of Surge and Surge Nevada respectively prior to the merger discussed in Note 3. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
   
 

The Company’s financial statements at March 31, 2002 and for the year then ended have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has a loss of $296,603 for the year ended March 31, 2002 (March 31, 2001 - $226,539), and has a working capital deficit of $193,773 at March 31, 2002 (March 31, 2001 - $56,500).

Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital. However, based on its prior demonstrated ability to raise capital, management believes that the Company’s capital resources should be adequate to continue operating and maintain its business strategy during fiscal 2003. However, if the Company is unable to raise additional capital in the near future, due to the Company’s liquidity problems, management expects that the Company will need to curtail operations, liquidate assets, seek additional capital on less favorable terms and/or pursue other remedial measures. These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
   
 
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Inventory

Inventory of raw materials and supplies are valued at the lower of actual cost and replacement cost. Inventory of work in process and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of each asset using the following annual rates, with half the rate being applied in the year of acquisition.

    Equipment 30%   declining balance
  Injection moulds 10 year   straight-line
  Leasehold improvements 5 year   straight-line
  Manufacturing license 5 year   straight-line
  Office furniture and fixtures
20%
  declining balance
  Tools
100%
   

 
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs is charged to operating expenses as incurred. Material expenditures, which increase the life of an asset, are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated remaining useful life of the asset. The cost of properties sold, or otherwise disposed of, and the related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts, and any gains or losses are reflected in current operations.
   
 

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit. Management of the Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets and takes into account events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that indicate that an impairment exists.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets, including identifiable intangibles and goodwill, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. The amount of the impairment loss to be recorded is calculated by the excess of the assets carrying value over its fair value. Fair value is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis.

Net loss per common share

The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128 which establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share ("EPS") for entities with publicly held common stock. The standard requires presentation of two categories of EPS - basic EPS and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. The Company had no potentially dilutive securities at March 31, 2002 or 2001 and, as a result, basic and fully diluted EPS are the same amount in each of the above periods. The EPS calculation for the years ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 has been performed assuming the historical 4,907,728 shares outstanding for Surge as at September 3, 2002 were converted into the 12,000,000 Boundless shares issued on the acquisition of Surge on a pro rata basis over the period April 1, 2000 to the date of the acquisition on September 3, 2002.

For the year ended March 31, 2002, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding was 3,698,544 (March 31, 2001 - 7,394).

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership have substantively transferred to customers, regardless of whether legal title has transferred. This condition is normally met when the product has been delivered or upon performance of services.

Income taxes

The Company provides for income taxes using the asset and liability method as prescribed by SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amount of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Page F-22

 

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 amounts reported in these financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Financial instruments

The carrying value of financial instruments potentially subject to valuation risk, consisting principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable approximates fair value, because of the short-term maturity of these instruments or actual interest rates that approximated the Company’s effective borrowing rate.

Comprehensive income

Components of comprehensive income are net income and all other non-owner changes in equity. SFAS No. 130 requires an enterprise to (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement, and (b) display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. The Company has no items of comprehensive income for the years ended March 31, 2002 or 2001.

Foreign currency

The accounts of subsidiaries, which are integrated operations, are translated using the temporal method. Under this method, monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the year end exchange rates. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated using historical rates of exchange. Revenues and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates such items are recognized in earnings. Exchange gains and losses are included in income for the year.

The accounts of subsidiaries which are self-sustaining operations are translated using the current rate method. Under this method, assets and liabilities are translated at the year end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates such items are recognized in earnings. Exchange gains and losses are included in a separate component of shareholders’ equity under cumulative translation adjustment.

Financial statements of self-sustaining subsidiaries operating in hyper-inflationary economies are translated using the temporal method, until these subsidiaries’ economies are no longer hyper inflationary.

Transaction amounts denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the local functional currency at exchange rates prevailing at transaction dates.

Research and development costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Acquisition of Surge Technologies Inc.

On September 3, 2002 Boundless completed a business combination with Surge, a company incorporated in the Province of Alberta, Canada, and Surge Nevada which is incorporated in the State of Nevada. Surge manufactures and sells electronic communications equipment. Surge Nevada is essentially an inactive company with no operations or assets. This business transaction is still subject to regulatory approval by the SEC.

Boundless issued 12,000,000 common shares to 100% of the former shareholders of Surge in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Surge which totaled 4,907,728 shares. The shares issued constitute 80% of the common stock of the Company after completion of the merger, and have been valued $12,000, the par-value of the common shares issued by Boundless on the date of closing. The issue of 80% of the common stock of Boundless to the former shareholders of Surge, the right of such shareholders to appoint a majority of the directors of Boundless, and the continuation of the Surge management team is deemed to constitute a change of control of Boundless.

On September 3, 2002 Boundless purchased 100% of the shares of Surge Nevada for $1.

As a result of the change in control discussed above, for financial reporting purposes, the acquisition of Surge by Boundless has been treated as a reverse acquisition. Surge is the continuing entity for financial reporting purposes and as a result of the Boundless’ plan to cease its operations at the time of the merger, the acquisition has been treated as a recapitalization of the Company. Accordingly, no goodwill has been recorded as a result of the acquisition. Historical shareholders’ equity of Surge has been retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares received in the combination after giving effect to any differences in the par value of Boundless and the Surge’s stock with an offset to additional paid in capital. Any stock options, warrants or commitments to issue capital stock of Surge existing on or before the acquisition were extinguished as part of the acquisition. For legal purposes, Boundless will remain the surviving entity.

Acquisition of a Company Previously Known as Surge Technologies Inc. (“2001 Corp.”)

Effective March 31, 2001, Surge acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of 2001 Corp. from a related party by issuing shares of Surge valued at $79. This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities were recorded based upon their fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible assets acquired was $159,712 and can be summarized as follows:

      Surge shares issued $ 79  
   

 
         
  Fair Value of 2001 Corp. assets and liabilities acquired:      
     Current assets   306,015  
     Property, plant and equipment   69,160  
     Intangible assets   70,083  
     Current liabilities   (320,027 )
     Due to shareholders   (285,022 )
     
 
         
      (159,791 )
     
 
         
  Excess, being goodwill, expensed during the year end March 31, 2001 $ 159,712

PART II - INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

As authorized by Section 78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law, we may indemnify our officers and directors against expenses incurred by such persons in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, involving such persons in their capacities as officers and directors, so long as such persons acted in good faith and in a manner which they reasonably believed to be in our best interests. If the legal proceeding, however, is by or in our right, the director or officer may not be indemnified in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which he is adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to us unless a court determines otherwise.

Under Nevada law, corporations may also purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer (or is serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation) for any liability asserted against such person and any expenses incurred by him in his capacity as a director or officer. These financial arrangements may include trust funds, self-insurance programs, guarantees and insurance policies.

Our Articles of Incorporation provide that we will indemnify our directors to the full extent permitted by applicable corporate law now or hereafter in force. However, such indemnity shall not apply if the director did not (a) act in good faith and in a manner the director reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interests, and (b) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, have reasonable cause to believe the director's conduct was unlawful. We will advance expenses for such persons pursuant to the terms set forth in the By-laws, or in a separate Board resolution or contract.

Our By-laws provide that our officers and directors shall be indemnified and held harmless against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding, arising by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer, or he or she was serving at our request as a director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent.

Such indemnification shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and shall endure to the benefit of the indemnitee's heirs, executors and administrators.

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
     
  (i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
     
  (ii)

                      SECTION 1. OFFICES

The principal office of the corporation shall be located at the principal place of business or such other place as the Board of Directors ("Board") may designate. The corporation may have such other offices as the Board may designate or as the business of the corporation may require.

                      SECTION 2. SHAREHOLDERS

2.1 Annual Meeting

The annual meeting of the stockholders to elect Directors and transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting shall be held on a date not more than 180 days after the end of the corporation's fiscal year, such date and time to be determined by the Board.

2.2 Special Meetings

Special meetings of the stockholders of the corporation for any purpose may be called at any time by the Board of Directors or, if the Directors in office constitute fewer than a quorum of the Board of Directors, by the affirmative vote of a majority of all the Directors in office, but such special meetings may not be called by any other person or persons.

2.3 Meetings by Communications Equipment

Stockholders may participate in any meeting of the stockholders by any means of communication by which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other during the meeting. Participation by such means shall constitute presence in person at a meeting.

2.4 Date, Time and Place of Meeting

Except as otherwise provided in these Bylaws, all meetings of stockholders, including those held pursuant to demand by stockholders, shall be held on such date and at such time and place designated by or at the direction of the Board.

2.5 Notice of Meeting

Written notice stating the place, day and hour of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called shall be given by or at the direction of the Board, the Chairman of the Board, the President or the Secretary to each stockholder entitled to notice of or to vote at the meeting not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the meeting. If an annual or special stockholders' meeting is adjourned to a different date, time or place, no notice of the new date, time or place is required if they are announced at the meeting before adjournment. If a new record date for the adjourned meeting is or must be fixed, notice of the adjourned meeting must be given to stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote as of the new record date.

Such notice may be transmitted by mail or personal delivery. Written notice may also be transmitted by an advertisement in a newspaper of general circulation in the area of the corporation's principal office. If such notice is mailed, it shall be deemed effective when deposited in the official government mail, first-class postage prepaid, properly addressed to the stockholder at such stockholder's address as it appears in the corporation's current record of stockholders. Any notice given by publication as herein provided shall be deemed effective five days after first publication.

66


2.6 Waiver of Notice

Whenever any notice is required to be given by an stockholder under the provisions of these Bylaws, the Articles of Incorporation or the Nevada Private Corporations Law, a waiver of notice in writing, signed by the person or persons entitled to such notice and delivered to the corporation, whether before or after the date and time of the meeting or before or after the action to be taken by consent is effective, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice. Further, notice of the time, place and purpose of any meeting will be deemed to be waived by any stockholder by attendance in person or by proxy, unless such stockholder at the beginning of the meeting objects to holding the meeting or transacting business at the meeting.

2.7 Fixing of Record Date for Determining Stockholders

For the purpose of determining stockholders entitled (a) to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, (b) to receive payment of any dividend, or (c) in order to make a determination of stockholders for any other purpose, the Board may fix a future date as the record date for any such determination. Such record date shall be not more than 60 days, and, in case of a meeting of stockholders, not less than 10 days, prior to the date on which the particular action requiring such determination is to be taken. If no record date is fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote a meeting, the record date shall be the day immediately preceding the date on which notice of the meeting is first given to stockholders. Such a determination shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting unless the Board fixes a new record date, which it shall do if the meeting is adjourned to a date more than 120 days after the date fixed for the original meeting. If no record date is set for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive payment of any stock, dividend or distribution (other than one involving a purchase, redemption or other acquisition of the corporation's shares), the record date shall be the date the Board authorizes the stock dividend or distribution.

2.8 Voting Record

At least 10 days before each meeting of stockholders, an alphabetical list of the stockholders entitled to notice of such meeting shall be made, arranged by voting group and by each class or series of shares, with the address of and number of shares held by each stockholder. This record shall be kept at the principal office of the corporation for 10 days prior to such meeting, and shall be kept open at such meeting, for the inspection of any stockholder or any stockholder's agent or attorney.

2.9 Quorum

Except with respect to any greater requirement contained in the Articles of Incorporation or the Nevada Private Corporations Law, one-third of the votes entitled to be cast on a matter by the holders of shares that, pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation or the Nevada Private Corporations Law, are entitled to vote and be counted collectively upon such matter, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum of such shares at a meeting of stockholders. If less than the required number of such votes are represented at a meeting, a majority of the votes so represented may adjourn the meeting from time to time. Any business may be transacted at a reconvened meeting that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally called, provided a quorum is present or represented at such meeting. Once a share is represented for any purpose at a meeting other than solely to object to holding the meeting or transacting business, it is deemed present for quorum purposes for the remainder of the meeting and any adjournment (unless a new record date is or must be set for the adjourned meeting), notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

2.10 Manner of Acting

If a quorum is present, action on a matter other than the election of Directors shall be approved if the votes cast in favor of the action by the shares entitled to vote and be counted collectively upon such matter exceed the votes cast against such action by the shares entitled to vote and be counted collectively thereon, unless the Articles of

67


Incorporation or the Nevada Private Corporations Law requires a greater number of affirmative votes. Whenever the Nevada Private Corporations Law permits a corporation's bylaws to specify that a lesser number of shares than would otherwise be required shall suffice to approve an action by stockholders, these Bylaws hereby specify that the number of shares required to approve such an action shall be such lesser number.

2.11 Proxies

As stockholder may vote by proxy executed in writing by the stockholder or by his or her attorney-in-fact or agent. Such proxy shall be effective when received by the Secretary or other officer or agent authorized to tabulate votes. A proxy shall become invalid 11 months after the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy. A proxy with respect to a specified meeting shall entitle its holder to vote at any reconvened meeting following adjournment of such meeting but shall not be valid after the final adjournment.

2.12 Voting Shares

Except as provided in the Articles of Incorporation, each outstanding share entitled to vote with respect to a matter submitted to a meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote upon such matter.

2.13 Voting for Directors

Each stockholder entitled to vote in an election of Directors may vote, in person or by proxy, the number of shares owned by such stockholder for as many persons as there are Directors to be elected and for whose election such stockholder has a right to vote. Stockholders shall not have the right to cumulate their votes. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation, the candidates elected shall be those receiving the largest number of votes cast, up to the number of Directors to be elected.

2.14 Action by Stockholders Without a Meeting

Any action that may be or is required to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting if one or more written consents describing the action taken shall be signed by stockholders holding of record or otherwise entitled to vote in the aggregate 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 on the action were present and voted. The Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which date shall not be more than 10 days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board. If not otherwise fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to take action without a meeting is the date the first stockholder consent is delivered to the corporation. A stockholder may withdraw consent only by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the corporation prior to the time that consents sufficient to authorize taking the action have been delivered to the corporation. Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent. A written consent is not effective to take the action referred to in the consent unless, within 60 days of the earliest dated consent delivered to the corporation, written consents signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to take action are delivered to the corporation. Unless the consent specifies a later effective date, actions taken by written consent of the stockholders are effective when (a) consents sufficient to authorize taking the action are in possession of the corporation and (b) the period of advance notice required by the Articles of Incorporation to be given to any nonconsenting or nonvoting stockholders has been satisfied. Any such consent shall be inserted in the minute book as if it were the minutes of a meeting of the stockholders.

68

Neither the business to be transacted at nor the purpose of any regular or special meeting of the Board or any committee designated by the Board need be specified in the waiver of notice of such meeting.

70


     3.7.2 By Attendance

A Director's attendance at or participation in a Board or committee meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, unless the Director at the beginning of the meeting, or promptly upon his or her arrival, objects to holding the meeting or transacting business at such meeting and does not thereafter vote for or assent to action taken at the meeting.

The right of dissent or abstention is not available to a Director who votes in favor of the action taken.

3.11 Action by Board or Committees Without a Meeting

Any action that could be taken at a meeting of the Board or of any committee created by the Board may be taken without a meeting if one or more written consents setting forth the action so taken are signed by each of the Directors or by each committee member either before or after the action is taken and delivered to the corporation. Action taken by written consent of Directors without a meeting is effective when the last Director signs the consent, unless the consent specifies a later effective date. Any such written consent shall be inserted in the minute book as if it were the minutes of a Board or a committee meeting.

3.12 Resignation

Any Director may resign from the Board or any committee of the Board at any time by delivering either oral tender of resignation at any meeting of the Board or any committee, or written notice to the Chairman of the Board, the President, the Secretary or the Board.

The stockholders may fill a vacancy only if there are no Directors in office. A Director elected to fill a vacancy shall serve only until the next election of Directors by the stockholders.

3.15 Executive and Other Committees

                      SECTION 10. INDEMNIFICATION

10.1 Right to Indemnification

Each person who was, is or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (including, without limitation, as a witness) in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, claim or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative and whether formal or informal (hereinafter "proceedings"), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a Director or officer of the corporation or, that being or having been such a Director or officer of the corporation, he or she is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a Director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (hereafter an "indemnitee"), whether the basis of a proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity or in any other capacity while serving as such a Director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the corporation against all losses, claims, damages (compensatory, exemplary, punitive or otherwise), liabilities and expenses (including attorneys' fees, costs, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties, amounts to be paid in settlement and any other expenses) actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a Director or officer of the Company or a Director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise and shall insure to the benefit of the indemnitee's heirs, executors and administrators. Except as provided in subsection 10.4 of this Section with respect to proceedings seeking to enforce rights to indemnification, the corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if a proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or ratified by the Board. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section shall be a contract right.

10.2 Restrictions on Indemnification

No indemnification shall be provided to any such indemnitee for acts or omissions of the indemnitee (a) if the indemnitee did not (i) act in good faith and in a manner the indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and (ii) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, have reasonable cause to believe the indemnitee's conduct was unlawful or (b) if the corporation is otherwise prohibited by applicable law from paying such indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Section 78.7502 or any successor provision of the Nevada Private Corporations Law is hereafter amended, the restrictions on indemnification set forth in this subsection 10.2 shall be as set forth in such amended statutory provision.

10.3 Advancement of Expenses

The right to indemnification conferred in this Section shall include the right to be paid by the corporation the expenses reasonably incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition (hereinafter an "advancement of expenses"). An advancement of expenses shall be made upon delivery to the corporation of an undertaking (hereinafter an "undertaking"), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced

77


if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified.

10.4 Right of Indemnitee to Bring Suit

If a claim under subsection 10.1 or 10.3 of this Section is not paid in full by the corporation within 60 days after a written claim has been received by the corporation, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be 20 days, the indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part, in any such suit or in a suit brought by the corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of the undertaking, the indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of litigating such suit. The indemnitee shall be presumed to be entitled to indemnification under this Section upon submission of a written claim (and, in an action brought to enforce a claim for an advancement of expenses, when the required undertaking has been tendered to the corporation) and thereafter the corporation shall have the burden of proof to overcome the presumption that the indemnitee is so entitled.

10.5 Nonexclusivity of Rights

The right to indemnification and the advancement of expenses conferred in this Section shall not be exclusive of any other right that any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the corporation, general or specific action of the Board or stockholders, contract or otherwise.

10.6 Insurance, Contracts and Funding

The corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any Director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of the corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the corporation would have the authority or right to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the Nevada Private Corporations Law or other law. The corporation may enter into contracts with any Director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of the corporation in furtherance of the provisions of this section and may create a trust fund, grant a security interest, or use other means (including, without limitation, a letter of credit) to ensure the payment of such amounts as may be necessary to effect indemnification as provided in this Section.

10.7 Indemnification of Employees and Agents of the Corporation

In addition to the rights of indemnification set forth in subsection 10.1, the corporation may, by action of the Board, grant rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses to employees and agents or any class or group of employees and agents of the corporation (a) with the same scope and effect as the provisions of this Section with respect to indemnification and the advancement of expenses of Directors and officers of the corporation; (b) pursuant to rights granted or provided by the Nevada Private Corporations Law; or (c) as are otherwise consistent with law.

10.8 Persons Serving Other Entities

Any person who, while a Director or officer of the corporation, is or was serving (a) as a Director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation of which a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of its directors is held by the corporation or (b) as a partner, trustee or otherwise in an executive or management capacity in a partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise of which the corporation or a majority owned subsidiary of the corporation is a general partner or has a majority ownership shall conclusively be deemed to be so serving at the request of the corporation and entitled to indemnification and the advancement of expenses under subsections 10.1 and 10.3 of this Section.

78


                      SECTION 11. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the full extent that the Nevada Private Corporations Law, as they exist on the date hereof or may hereafter be amended, permit the limitation or elimination of the liability of any person who would be considered an indemnitee under subsection 10.1 of Section 10, an indemnitee of the Company shall not be liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for conduct in the capacity based upon which such person is considered an indemnitee. Any amendments to or repeal of this Section 11 shall not adversely affect any right or protection of any indemnitee of the Company for or with respect to any actsor omissions of such indemnitee occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

                      SECTION 12. AMENDMENTS

These Bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed and new Bylaws may be adopted by the Board, except that the Board may not repeal or amend any Bylaw that the stockholders have expressly provided, in amending or repealing such Bylaw, may not be amended or repealed by the Board. The stockholders may also alter, amend and repeal these Bylaws or adopt new Bylaws. All Bylaws made by the Board may be amended, repealed, altered or modified by the stockholders.

SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS; INDEMNITY; SET-OFF

The respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the SURGE Shareholders and Boundless contained in this Agreement, or any Schedule attached hereto or any agreement or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive for a period of two years from the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the representations, warranties and agreements made with regard to taxes and ERISA matters shall survive until the applicable statutes of limitations have expired; and provided further, however, that with respect to any covenant, term or provision to be performed hereunder or in any of the Schedules hereto or any documents or agreements delivered hereunder, the right of indemnification under this Article 11 shall survive until such covenant, term or provision has been fully paid, performed or discharged.

11.2         Indemnification.

  (b)
The SURGE Shareholders agree to indemnify and hold Boundless and its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, affiliates and agents harmless from damages, losses, liabilities, assessments, judgments, costs or expenses (including, without limitation, penalties, interest and reasonable counsel fees and expenses), (each a “Claim”), in excess of $50,000 in the aggregate, as a result of or arising out of the material breach of any representation or warranty made by the Shareholders, or the failure of any material representation or warranty made by the Shareholders in this Agreement or in any Schedule attached hereto or any document or agreement delivered hereunder to be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date or the non-performance by the SURGE Shareholders of any covenant, term or provision to be performed by them hereunder or in any of the documents or agreements delivered hereunder which may be imposed or sought to be imposed on Boundless.
     
  (b)
  
Boundless agrees to indemnify and hold the SURGE Shareholders and each of their officers, directors, shareholders, employees, affiliates and agents harmless from damages, losses or expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and expenses) in excess of $50,000, in the aggregate, suffered or paid, directly or indirectly, as a result of or arising out of the failure of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser in this Agreement to be true and correct in all respects as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date.

11.3 Conditions of Indemnification.

  (a)
  
A party entitled to indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”) shall notify the party or parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any Claim or potential liability for Taxes (“Tax Claim”) which the Indemnified Party has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement. Such notice shall be given within a reasonable (taking into account the nature of the Claim or Tax Claim) period of time after the Indemnified Party has actual knowledge thereof. The Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations under this Article 11 within forty days after receipt of subsequent written notice from the Indemnified Party if an amount is specified therein, or promptly following receipt of subsequent written notice or notices specifying the amount of such Claim or Tax Claim additions thereto; provided, however, that for so long as the Indemnifying Party is in good faith defending a Claim or Tax Claim pursuant to Section 8.3(b) hereof, its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect thereto shall be suspended (other than with respect to any costs, expenses or other liabilities incurred by the Indemnified Party prior to the assumption of the defense by the Indemnifying Party). Failure to provide a notice of Claim or Tax Claim within the time period referred to above shall not constitute a defense to a Claim or Tax Claim or release the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder to the extent that such failure does not prejudice the position of the Indemnifying Party.

105




  (b)
  
If the facts giving rise to any such indemnification involve any actual, threatened or possible Claim or demand or Tax Claim by any person not a party to this Agreement against the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to contest or defend such Claim or demand Tax Claim at its expense and through counsel of its own choosing, which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, such right to contest or defend shall only apply if the Indemnifying Party gave written notice of its intention to assume the contest and defense of such Claim or demand Tax Claim to the Indemnified Party as soon as practicable, but in no event more than thirty days after receipt of the notice of Claims or Tax Claim, and provided the Indemnified Party with appropriate assurances as to the creditworthiness of the Indemnifying Party, and that the Indemnifying Party will be in a position to pay all fees, expenses and judgments that might arise out of such Claim or demand Tax Claim. The Indemnified Party shall have the obligation to cooperate in the defense of any such Claim or demand Tax Claim and the right, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of any Claim or Tax Claim. So long as the Indemnifying Party is defending in good faith any such Claim or demand Tax Claim asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise such Claim or demand Tax Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle or compromise any such Claim or demand Tax Claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party at any time utilizing its own funds to do so if in connection with such settlement or compromise the Indemnified Party is fully released by the third party and is paid in full any indemnification amounts due hereunder. The Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party or its agents all records and other materials in the Indemnified Party’s possession reasonably required by it for its use in contesting any third party Claim or demand Tax Claim and shall otherwise cooperate, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, in the defense thereof in such manner as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party elects to defend such Claim or demand Tax Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have no obligation to do so.

          11.4         Limitations on Indemnification for Breaches of Representations and Warranties. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, (a) the individual liability of the SURGE Shareholders under Section 11.2 for any liability arising as a result of the failure of Shareholders representations and warranties to be true and correct or arising for any other reason under Section 11.2, shall not exceed the number of shares received by the shareholder at Closing multiplied by the price of the shares ($0.25) on the day this Agreement is signed (the “Closing Value”) and (b) the aggregate liability of Boundless and its affiliates under Section 11.2 for any liability arising as a result of the failure of Boundless’ representations and warranties to be true and correct, shall not exceed the Closing Value (the “Boundless Cap”).

WHEREAS:

A.    Boundless, Acquirer, SURGE and the SURGE Shareholders (the “Parties”) entered into a Merger Agreement made as of September 3, 2002, whereby Acquirer and SURGE would merge and continue as one entity pursuant to the laws of Nevada.

B.    The Parties wish to amend the Merger Agreement whereby Acquirer would instead acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of SURGE from the SURGE Shareholders such that the transaction would constitute a share exchange pursuant to the laws of Nevada (the “Share Exchange”). In connection with the Share Exchange the SURGE Shareholders will receive shares of Boundless in consideration for their shares of SURGE; and

C.    It is intended that the Share Exchange shall qualify for United States federal income tax purposes as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

NOW THEREFORE THIS AMENDMENT AGREEMENT WITNESSETH THAT in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants, agreements, representations and warranties contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.
  
The Merger Agreement is hereby amended such that all references therein to Merger, Plan of Merger (including its variant “plan of merger”), and Certificate of Merger shall instead refer to and mean Share Exchange, Plan of Share Exchange, and Certificate of Share Exchange respectively.
       
2.
  
The Merger Agreement is hereby amended such that all references to Closing, and all Closing deliveries described in Article 9 thereof, as amended hereby, will refer to the Closing of the Share Exchange, and Closing deliveries pursuant to the Share Exchange.
       
3. Subsection 1.1 (x) of Article 1 to the Merger Agreement is hereby deleted.
       
4. Section 2.1 of Article 2 to the Merger Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:
       
    The Share Exchange
       
    2.1
On Closing, Boundless will issue the Acquisition Shares to the holders of the SURGE Shares in accordance with the SURGE Conversion Ratios set out in Schedule “S”, and the holders of the SURGE Shares will transfer all right and title to the SURGE Shares held by them to the Acquirer. The SURGE Shareholders agree on Closing to tender, sell and transfer all title and ownership in and to their SURGE Shares, free and clear of all encumbrances, liens or claims, to Acquirer, and Acquirer agrees to take-up and purchase all SURGE Shares tendered. SURGE and the SURGE Shareholders agree to use best efforts to obtain the agreement of all holders of the SURGE Shares to tender their SURGE Shares to Acquirer on Closing. The Share Exchange will be on a voluntary basis by the holders of the SURGE Shares, other than the Surge Shareholders. Any SURGE Shares not tendered to the Acquirer on Closing may, at the option of Surge, be subject to compulsory acquisition in accordance with the laws of Alberta.
       
5. Section 2.2 of Article 2 to the Merger Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:
