PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
M-GAB DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION
We intend to develop, market and distribute an interactive travel brochure
that will contain images and video of world-class destination resorts, as well
as remote vacation getaway locations such as Lake Powell and the Grand Canyon.
We currently have no agreements with any resorts or destinations to provide this
service. We intend to generate revenues from both the production of our product
(paid by the destination resort or location) and from the sale of our product on
a subscription basis via the Internet (paid by existing Internet web sites).
In our opinion, we believe that destination resorts and locations will
desire to have their properties featured using our travel brochure as a way to
increase interest in their location, and through our relationships hope to form
with major Internet web sites, as a way to increase their overall Internet
exposure. We have not yet conducted any market research to support our opinion.
In our opinion, we believe that existing Internet sites that provide
travel-related products and services, such as Yahoo.com, Expedia.com, American
Express Travel, and the major airlines, will subscribe to our products to
enhance their Internet presence, improve their customer service, retain existing
customers, and increase sales revenues by providing their customers the
opportunity to take a "virtual vacation" and experience exotic locales from our
client's website. As above, we have not yet conducted any market research to
support our opinion.
Our offices are currently located at 1059 E. Skyler Drive, Draper, Utah
84020, and our telephone number is (801) 361-7644.

RISK FACTORS
Any investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You
should consider carefully the following information, together with the other
information contained in this prospectus, before you decide to buy our common
stock. If any of the following events actually occurs, our business, financial
condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In this case, the
market price, if any, of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all
or part of your investment in our common stock.
Because we are a new company that has not generated any revenues since our
formation, we may not be profitable if we commence operations, and our investors
may lose all or part of their investment.
We were incorporated in March 2001. We have not commenced our business
plan, have no assets, and we have not generated any revenues. We do not
anticipate generating any revenue in our current fiscal year, and do not expect
to be profitable during the next fiscal year. Our prospects must be considered
speculative, considering the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently
encountered in the establishment of a new business. In the event we commence
operations, we cannot guaranty that we will be profitable. Our failure to
generate sufficient revenues or be profitable may cause an investor to lose all
or part of his investment.
Our officers and directors are engaged in other activities that could have
conflicts of interest with us or they may not devote sufficient time to our
affairs.
We currently have only one officer and director, Carl M. Berg. Currently,
Mr. Berg devotes the majority of his time to other employment. As a result,
conflicts of interest in allocating time, services, and functions between us and
the other activities may occur from time to time.
We will need to hire or retain additional members of our management team.
Our current management team consists of only one individual, Mr. Berg. We
will need to hire or retain the services of a greater number of experienced
people, and people with skills and experience that can help us carry out our
business plan. We may experience a delay in finding qualified people, if we can
find them at all, which will cause a delay in executing our business plan. We
may have to pay certain highly qualified candidates a high level of
compensation, which will affect our cash flow and our profitability.
Our ability to generate revenues and achieve market acceptance is uncertain
because our business is based on an untested business plan, which may never be
accepted by potential customers.
Our business is based on an untested business plan, which may never be
accepted by potential destinations, resort owners, or customers. Our failure to
complete our development and to market our services and products successfully
could significantly affect our ability to succeed which will affect potential
investors' ability to sell their shares of common stock. Our inability to
generate revenues may cause potential investors to lose all or part of their
investment.
5
We will need to raise additional capital to develop and grow our business.
If we are successful in raising $1,000,000 under this offering, then we
believe we will have sufficient funds to operate for approximately twelve
months. If we raise less than $1,000,000 in this offering, our ability to carry
out our business plan will be severely limited, and possibly eliminated. This
would have a material adverse effect on our ability to commence operations. We
cannot guaranty that we will be able to obtain additional financing at
commercially reasonable rates.
Our industry is highly competitive and we may not have adequate resources
to market our products to compete successfully.
Competition in the Internet industry is intense. In order to succeed, we
have to enter into agreements with property owners and destination resorts to
produce our travel brochure. In addition, we will have to market our brochures
to existing Internet web sites which are presented with numerous competing
products on a regular basis. There is intense competition in each of these
areas. Our competition may have substantially more cash and other resources
than we do, making it difficult for us to obtain the necessary agreements,
commence operations, and operate profitably.
Our ability to generate business will depend on continued growth of online
commerce in the event we commence operations.
If we commence operations, our ability to generate business will depend on
continued growth in the use of the Internet, particularly in the area of travel.
Rapid growth in the use of the Internet and online services is a recent
phenomenon. This growth may not continue. A sufficiently broad base of
consumers may not accept, or continue to use, the Internet as a medium of
commerce. We cannot guaranty that the number of Internet users will continue to
grow in general or with respect to travel web sites.
Our sole director and officer owns a majority of our common stock, allowing
him to exert significant influence in matters concerning management of our
company and matters requiring shareholder approval.
Our sole director and officer beneficially owns over 92% of the common
stock before this offering, and will own over 69% of the common stock if we are
successful in raising the full $1,000,000. Such concentrated control of the
company gives him the ability to nominate the entire board of directors and
control all matters requiring approval by our stockholders. Such concentrated
control may also make it difficult for our shareholders to receive a premium for
their shares of our common stock in the event we merge with a third party or
enter into a different transaction which requires shareholder approval, and may
adversely affect the price of our common stock.
Our sole director and officer will be permitted to sell some of his stock,
which may have a negative effect on our stock price and ability to raise
additional capital.
We have included in this registration statement 450,000 shares of common
stock beneficially held by our sole officer and director. He has agreed not to
sell those shares until at least sixty days after the completion of our offering
for $1,000,000. If our common stock is listed on the over-the-counter
electronic bulletin board, and after the sixty day lock-up period, he may
6
sell some or all of those shares in the open market, which may have a negative
effect on our stock price and may prevent us from obtaining additional capital.
Because we may be subject to the "penny stock" rules, the level of trading
activity in our stock may be reduced.
We anticipate that a market maker will apply to have our common stock
listed on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. If successful, broker-dealer
practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks" are regulated by
certain penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Penny stocks, like shares of our common stock, generally are equity securities
with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain
national securities exchanges or quoted on Nasdaq. The penny stock rules
require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise
exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that
provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the
penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with
current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the
broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and, if the broker-dealer
is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the
broker-dealer's presumed control over the market, and monthly account statements
showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In
addition, broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than
established customers and "accredited investors" must 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. Consequently,
these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading
activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security subject to the penny
stock rules, and investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell
their shares.
We lack a public market for shares of our common stock, which will make it
difficult for investors to sell their shares.
There is no public market for shares of our common stock. We cannot
guaranty that an active public market will develop or be sustained. Therefore,
investors may not be able to find purchasers for their shares of our common
stock. Should there develop a significant market for our shares, the market
price for those shares may be significantly affected by such factors as our
financial results and introduction of new products and services. Factors such
as announcements of new or enhanced products by us or our competitors and
quarter-to-quarter variations in our results of operations, as well as market
conditions in the Internet sector may have a significant impact on the market
price of our shares. Further, the stock market has experienced extreme
volatility that has particularly affected the market prices of stock of many
companies and that often has been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating
performance of those companies.
Investors' ability to resell their shares will also be hampered because our
sole director and officer owns approximately 92% of our outstanding shares of
common stock. Such concentrated control will make the market for our shares
highly illiquid. Therefore, it will be difficult for investors to resell their
shares if they are not able to find purchasers for their shares of our common
stock.
7
Because we lack a public market for shares of our common stock, the
offering price of the shares will be arbitrarily determined by the selling
security holders. Therefore, investors may lose all or part of their investment
if the price of their shares is too high.
Our common stock is not publicly traded and we do not participate in the
OTC Electronic Bulletin Board, an electronic quotation medium for securities
traded outside the Nasdaq Stock Market. We cannot guaranty that an active
public market for our stock will develop or be sustained. No market makers
currently buy or sell our securities. Therefore, the offering price of shares
of our common stock may be arbitrarily determined by the selling security
holders. Accordingly, purchasers may lose all or part of their investments if
the price of their shares is too high. A purchase of our stock in this offering
would be unsuitable for a person who cannot afford to lose his entire
investment.
Forward Looking Statements. Except for historical information, the
discussion in this registration statement contains some forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements may refer to
M-GAB's future plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. These statements
may be identified by the use of the words such as "expect," "anticipate,"
"believe," "intend," "plan" and similar expressions. M-GAB's actual results
could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking
statements.
8
USE OF PROCEEDS
M-GAB does not realize any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the
selling security holders. M-GAB has already received and is utilizing the
proceeds received from those shares sold in private placements in its business.
The net proceeds to M-GAB (assuming an offering price of $0.50 per
share and potential sales commissions of up to 10% of the gross proceeds) from
the sale of the shares which we intend to offer to new investors would be
a maximum of $900,000.
These proceeds would be received from time to time as sales of these shares
are made by us. As set forth in the following table, we will use those proceeds
primarily for production equipment, marketing of our products, and working
capital for operations. We intend to use the proceeds in the following order of
priority:
Minimum Offering (1) Maximum Offering
Description of Use Amount Percent Amount Percent
Production Equipment $ 50,000 20.0% $150,000 16.7%
Marketing and Research $ 175,000 70.0% $415,000 46.1%
Working Capital 25,000 10.0% $335,000 37.2%
-------------- ------ -------- ------
Total $ 250,000 100.0% $900,000 100.0%
(1) Assumes that we only raise $250,000 in this offering. This offering is
conducted on best efforts basis with no minimum, therefore, we could raise less
than $250,000.
Our allocation of proceeds represents our best estimate based upon the
expected sale of shares and the requirements of our proposed business and
marketing plan. If any of these factors change, we may reallocate some of the
net proceeds. Even if we are able to sell the maximum shares, we do not know
how long these funds will last. The portion of the any net proceeds not
immediately required will be invested in certificates of deposit or similar
short-term interest bearing instruments.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
There is no established public market for the shares we are registering.
Our management has established the price of $0.50 per share based upon their
estimates of the market value of M-GAB and the price at which potential
investors might be willing to purchase the shares offered.
9
DILUTION
We are registering for sale to new investors up to 2,000,000 shares at
$0.50 per share. Our founding shareholders, Sadie, LLC, Mr. Berg and Mr.
Lebrecht, paid $0.0001 per share for their shares, and other existing
shareholders whose shares are being registered for resale paid $0.10 per share
for their shares. The following table sets forth on a pro forma basis at August
30, 2001, the differences between existing stockholders and new investors with
respect to the number of shares of common stock purchased from M-GAB, the total
consideration paid to M-GAB, and the average price paid per share (assuming a
proposed public offering price of $0.50 per share).
SHARES TOTAL AVERAGE PRICE
PURCHASED PERCENT CONSIDERATION PERCENT PER SHARE
---------- ------- ------------- ------- --------------
Founding
Stockholders 6,000,000 74.9% $ 600 less than 1% $0.0001
=======
Existing
Stockholders 13,000 less than 1% $ 1,300 less than 1% $ 0.10
=======
New Investors 2,000,000 25.0% $1,000,000 99.8% $ 0.50
---------- ------------ ---------- ------------- =======
Total 8,013,000 100% $1,001,900 100%
========== ============ ========== =============
The difference between the public offering price per share of common stock
and the net tangible book value per share of common stock after this offering
constitutes the dilution to investors in this offering. M-GAB has already
realized the dilution from the shares registered for selling shareholders. Net
tangible book value per share is determined by dividing the net tangible book
value (total assets less intangible assets and total liabilities) by the number
of outstanding shares of common stock. The dilution calculations we have set
forth in this section reflect an offering price of $0.50 per share.
As of July 31, 2001, M-GAB had a net tangible book deficit of ($118) or
($0.00002) per share of issued and outstanding common stock. After giving
effect to the sale of the shares proposed to be offered in the maximum offering
of 2,000,000 shares, the net tangible book value at that date would have been
$899,882 or $0.112 per share. This represents an immediate increase in net
tangible book value of $0.112 per share to existing shareholders and an
immediate dilution of $0.388 per share to new investors.
The following table illustrates such per share dilution:
Proposed public offering price (per share) $ 0.50
Net tangible book value per share
at July 31, 2001 ($0.00002)

the maximum offering $ 0.112

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
M-GAB, through its officers and directors, intends to offer up to 2,000,000
shares at a price of $0.50 per share to potential investors. M-GAB has not at
this point engaged any broker/dealers licensed by the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. for the sale of these shares and presently has no
intention to do so. If M-GAB engaged any broker/dealers, they may be acting as
underwriters for the offering of these shares.
Our officers and directors intend to seek to sell the common stock to be
sold by M-GAB in this offering by contacting persons with whom they have had
prior contact who have expressed interest in M-GAB, and by seeking additional
persons who may have interest through various methods such as mail, telephone,
and email. Any solicitations by mail or email will be preceded by or
accompanied by a copy of this Prospectus. M-GAB does not intend to offer the
securities over the Internet or through general solicitation or advertising.
Our officers and directors are relying on an exemption from registration as a
broker-dealer pursuant to Rule 3a4-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in
that they are not statutorily disqualified, are not associated with a broker or
dealer, are not receiving compensation related to these transactions, and
performs substantial other duties for M-GAB.
We anticipate that a market maker will apply to have our common stock
traded on the over-the-counter bulletin board. If successful, the selling
stockholders will be able to sell their shares referenced under "Selling
Securityholders" from time to time on the over-the-counter bulletin board in
privately negotiated sales, or on other markets, at prevailing market rates. If
our common stock is not listed on the over-the-counter bulletin board, the
selling stockholders will sell their shares in privately negotiated
transactions. Any securities sold in brokerage transactions will involve
customary brokers' commissions. Mr. Berg has agreed that he will not sell any
of the 450,000 shares included in this registration statement until at least
sixty days after the termination of this offering.
In accordance with Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
which was adopted to prevent manipulation of a stock price during a registered
offering, neither M-GAB, Mr. Berg, Mr. Lebrecht, nor any of the selling
stockholders may buy or sell any of our common stock while we, or they, are
selling stock in this offering. None of the selling stockholders will engage in
any short selling of our securities.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not a party to or otherwise involved in any legal proceedings.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common
stock, par value $0.001, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value
$0.001. As of August 30, 2001, there are 6,013,000 shares of our common stock
issued and outstanding, and no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.
COMMON STOCK. Each shareholder of our common stock is entitled to a pro
rata share of cash distributions made to shareholders, including dividend
payments. The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each
share of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. There is no
cumulative voting with respect to the election of our directors or any other
matter. Therefore, the holders of more than 50% of the shares voted for the
election of those directors can elect all of the directors. The holders of our
common stock are entitled to receive dividends when and if declared by our Board
of Directors from funds legally available therefore. Cash dividends are at the
sole discretion of our Board of Directors. In the event of our liquidation,
dissolution or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to share
ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment
of our liabilities and after provision has been made for each class of stock, if
any, having any preference in relation to our common stock. Holders of shares
of our common stock have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights,
and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.
DIVIDEND POLICY. We have never declared or paid a cash dividend on our
capital stock. We do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the
foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain our earnings, if any, for use
in our business. Any dividends declared in the future will be at the discretion
of our Board of Directors and subject to any restrictions that may be imposed by
our lenders.
PREFERRED STOCK. We are authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred
stock, par value $0.001, of which no such shares are issued and outstanding. We
have not designated the rights and preferences of our preferred stock. The
availability or issuance of these shares could delay, defer, discourage or
prevent a change in control.
STOCK OPTION PLAN. On May 15, 2001, our directors and shareholders
approved the M-GAB, Inc. 2001 Stock Option Plan, effective June 1, 2001. The
plan offers selected employees, directors, and consultants an opportunity to
acquire our common stock, and serves to encourage such persons to remain
employed by us and to attract new employees. The plan allows for the award of
stock and options, up to 600,000 shares of our common stock. Following the
effectiveness of this registration statement, we intend to register with the
Commission the shares of common stock covered by the plan. We have not issued
any options or stock awards under the plan.
TRANSFER AGENT. The transfer agent for our common stock is Interwest
Transfer Company, Inc., 1981 East Murray Holladay Road, Suite 100, Salt Lake
City, Utah 84117, telephone number (801) 272-9294.
INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
Brian A. Lebrecht is the President of The Lebrecht Group, APLC, which
serves as our legal counsel. Mr. Lebrecht is the owner of 450,000 shares of our
common stock and is a selling shareholder in this offering.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT
LIABILITIES
Article X of our Articles of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, no director or officer shall be personally liable to
the Corporation or its shareholders for damages for breach of any duty owed to
the Corporation or its shareholders. In addition, the Corporation shall have
the power, in its Bylaws or in any resolution of its stockholders or directors,
to indemnify the officers and directors of this Corporation against any
liability as may be determined to be in the best interests of this Corporation,
and in conjunction therewith, to buy, at this Corporation's expense, policies of
insurance.
Our bylaws do not further address indemnification, and there are no
resolutions of our shareholders or directors which address indemnification.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
16
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
INTRODUCTION
M-GAB Development Corporation, a Florida corporation, was incorporated in
the State of Florida on March 27, 2001.
We intend to develop, market and distribute an interactive travel brochure
that will contain images and video of world-class destination resorts, as well
as remote vacation getaway locations such as Lake Powell and the Grand Canyon.
We currently have no agreements with any resorts or destinations to provide this
service. We intend to generate revenues from both the production of our product
(paid by the destination resort or location) and from the sale of our product on
a subscription basis via the Internet (paid by existing Internet web sites).
In our opinion, we believe that destination resorts and locations will
desire to have their properties featured using our travel brochure as a way to
increase interest in their location, and through our relationships hope to form
with major Internet web sites, as a way to increase their overall Internet
exposure. We have not yet conducted any market research to support our opinion.
In our opinion, we believe that existing Internet sites that provide
travel-related products and services, such as Yahoo.com, Expedia.com, American
Express Travel, and the major airlines, will subscribe to our products to
enhance their Internet presence, improve their customer service, retain existing
customers, and increase sales revenues by providing their customers the
opportunity to take a "virtual vacation" and experience exotic locales from our
client's website. As above, we have not yet conducted any market research to
support our opinion.
We have not begun any market research or operations. We will not begin any
market research or operations until after we are able to raise capital in this
offering. After the termination of this offering, we cannot determine how long
it will take to begin operations until after our market research is completed.
We do not have an estimated time that operations will begin, that revenues will
be generated, or when we might be profitable.
MARKET RESEARCH
After completion of this offering, management will engage in market
research to fully determine the demand for our travel brochures, and the cost of
producing them. Until such time, we will not enter into discussions or
agreements with any resorts, destinations, video producers, or Internet
companies. In addition, until our market research is completed, we will not be
able to determine our needs for office space, equipment, and employees.
Our sole officer and director, Mr. Berg, intends to oversee the market
research. It is anticipated that one or more market research companies may be
retained to conduct research and interpret its results, and we have allocated a
significant portion of the use of proceeds from this offering for that purpose.
We have not entered into discussions or agreements with any market research
companies at this time.
COMPETITION
We have not yet commenced operations, and are entering into a very
competitive marketplace. Internet content providers are numerous, and our
ability to profitably negotiate and
17
enter into agreements with major web site and Internet portal operators
will have a material impact on our operations and future profitability. We
believe that the product we have to offer is unique and will be attractive to
both web site operators and the resort operators, however, our product can be
easily duplicated.
MANUFACTURING
We do not intend to produce or manufacture any of our products. We intend
to contract with third parties to produce our video brochures and house them for
distribution over the Internet. We do not currently have any agreements for the
production, storage, or distribution of our video brochures. We hope that,
through our anticipated contracts for video production, we will be able to have
produced a video product that is high quality, three-dimensional, includes both
sound and video, and is interactive to its user (i.e., the user can control what
images he is viewing by moving the mouse on his computer). We will not begin
discussions or negotiations with potential video producers until after we have
completed this offering, and completed our market research. We do not have an
estimated time as to when we will have reached an agreement with one or more
video producers, or when production of the first video will begin.
KEY CUSTOMERS AND AGREEMENTS
In order to be successful, we believe we will have to enter into agreements
with property owners and operators or tourist organizations representing
desirable locations. Simultaneously, we believe we will have to negotiate and
enter into agreements with major web site and Internet portal operators to
display our brochures.
Our success is dependent on our ability to enter into key agreements as
described above. We currently do not have any such agreements. Our management
believes, however, that they can develop relationships with key property
operators and web site owners, however we can make no guaranty of our success.
In the event we are unable to develop these key relationships, our business will
likely fail.
We will not begin discussions or negotiations with potential customers
until after we have completed this offering, and completed our market research.
We do not have an estimated time as to when we will have reached an agreement
with one or more customers, when production of the first video will begin, or
when we will first generate revenues from our products.
We do not have, nor do we intend to obtain, any patents or trademarks of
our own. As we develop brand recognition, we may apply for trademark and
service mark protection.
GOVERNMENT APPROVALS AND REGULATION
We are not subject to any government regulation. Further, we are not
subject to any environmental laws or regulations.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
We have not spent any material amount of time or money on research and
development, and do anticipate doing so in the future.
18
EMPLOYEES
Other than our current sole director and officer, we do not have any
employees because our business has not commenced operations. We will not have
any additional employees until after completion of this offering and completion
of our market research. We do not have an estimate of how many employees will
be necessary, what their compensation expense will be, or when we will expect to
hire them.
19
MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATION
Until the effectiveness of this registration statement, management
anticipates that M-GAB will engage in very little business activity, will not
hire any employees, and will not enter into any material contracts. As a
result, our cash requirements will be minimal, related only to the cost of
maintaining the company in good standing. Our two primary shareholders, Mr.
Berg and Mr. Lebrecht, have agreed to advance funds to us to fund these minimal
cash requirements.
Upon the effectiveness of this registration statement, management intends
to seek to have a market maker file an application to list our securities on the
OTC Bulletin Board, and management intends raise additional capital through the
sale of securities registered in this offering.
Even if we are successful in raising the full $1,000,000 under this
offering, our management does not know how long this will satisfy our cash
requirements. Cash will be used to conduct market research, purchase production
equipment, to market our products, and for working capital. It is not
anticipated that current management will be paid a salary during the next twelve
months.
Management does not anticipate that we will engage in any material product
research and development because we will utilize existing technology in the
production of our video brochures and viewers will view the brochures on
existing web sites.
Management does not anticipate that we will purchase a plant or significant
equipment because we will enter into agreements with existing video producers
for our video brochures.
Management anticipates that we will need to hire employees to oversee the
production of videos by third-party video producers at locations around the
world and to negotiate agreements with major web site operators to show the
brochures. Management does not currently have an estimate as to how many
employees will be required.
Our financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a
going concern. Because we have not generated any revenues to date and have
minimal capital resources, our auditors included an explanatory paragraph in
their report raising substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
During our pre-operating period, we utilize the office of our founder, Carl
M. Berg, under a verbal agreement where we do not pay rent or reimburse him for
the minimal expenses incurred. When we are successful in raising sufficient
capital to begin executing our business plan, we will identify and lease
appropriate office space.
20
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
On April 20, 2001, our founder, Carl M. Berg, purchased 2,550,000 shares of
common stock for $255.00. On April 20, 2001, Sadie, LLC, an entity wholly-owned
and controlled by Mr. Berg, purchased 3,000,000 shares of common stock for
$300.00. Also on April 20, 2001, Brian A. Lebrecht, our legal counsel,
purchased 450,000 shares of common stock for $45.00. The total purchase price
from these transactions was $600.00. If we are successful in receiving $0.50
per share, as contemplated in this offering, the value of the shares acquired on
April 20,2001 would be $3,000,000.
Mr. Berg and Mr. Lebrecht have, from time to time, advanced us funds to
cover certain expenses. The amount of these advances has not exceeded, and is
not expected to exceed, $2,500. These advances do not bear interest, and
although they have no maturity date, are expected to be repaid as soon as
reasonably possible.
On October 4, 2001, Mr. Berg executed a Lock-Up Agreement wherein he agreed
not to sell any of the 450,000 shares of common stock included in this
registration statement until at least sixty days after the termination of this
offering.
MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
Our securities are not listed for trading on any exchange or quotation
service. We are not required to comply with the timely disclosure policies of
any exchange or quotation service. The requirements to which we would be
subject if our securities were so listed typically included the timely
disclosure of a material change or fact with respect to our affairs and the
making of required filings. Although we are not required to deliver an annual
report to security holders, we intend to provide an annual report to our
security holders, which will include audited financial statements.
There are no outstanding options or warrants to purchase, or securities
convertible into, shares of our common stock. We have agreed to register, under
the Securities Act of 1933 for sale by selling security holders, 13,000 shares
of our common stock acquired by twelve shareholders in a private placement.
None of our outstanding common stock can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the
Securities Act. The number of holders of record of shares of our common stock
is fourteen (14).
We are registering a total of 913,000 shares of our common stock for sale
by the selling shareholders, and in addition we are registering 2,000,000 shares
of our common stock for sale to new investors at $0.50 per share.
There have been no cash dividends declared on our common stock. Dividends
are declared at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors.
The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires
additional disclosure relating to the market for penny stocks in connection with
trades in any stock defined as a penny stock. The Commission has adopted
regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that
has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a few exceptions
which we do not meet. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require
the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure
schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith.
21
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
None of our employees are subject to a written employment agreement, and we
have not paid compensation to any employees, executive officers, or directors
for services rendered to us.
On May 15, 2001, our directors and shareholders approved the M-GAB, Inc.
2001 Stock Option Plan, effective June 1, 2001. The plan offers selected
employees, directors, and consultants an opportunity to acquire our common
stock, and serves to encourage such persons to remain employed by us and to
attract new employees. The plan allows for the award of stock and options, up
to 600,000 shares of our common stock. Following the effectiveness of this
registration statement, we intend to register with the Commission the shares of
common stock covered by the plan. We have not issued any options or stock
awards under the plan.
Our Directors do not receive compensation for serving as a Director, but
they are entitled to reimbursement for their travel expenses.
CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL
DISCLOSURE
There have been no disagreements with our accountants required to be
disclosed pursuant to Item 304 of Regulation S-B.

PART II - INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Article X of our Articles of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, no director or officer shall be personally liable to
the Corporation or its shareholders for damages for breach of any duty owed to
the Corporation or its shareholders. In addition, the Corporation shall have
the power, in its Bylaws or in any resolution of its stockholders or directors,
to indemnify the officers and directors of this Corporation against any
liability as may be determined to be in the best interests of this Corporation,
and in conjunction therewith, to buy, at this Corporation's expense, policies of
insurance.
Our bylaws do not further address indemnification, and there are no
resolutions of our shareholders or directors which address indemnification.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the

UNDERTAKINGS
A. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by
our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in
the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
25
B. We hereby undertake:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
(i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually
or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in
the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that
which was registered) any deviation from the low or high end of
the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form
of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)
(Section 230.424(b) of Regulation S-B) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change
in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
"Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
Registration Statement; and
(iii) Include any additional or changed material information on the plan
of distribution.
(2) For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each
post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities
offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona
fide offering.
(3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the
securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.

LOCK-UP AGREEMENT
October 4, 2001
M-GAB Development Corporation
1059 E. Skyler Drive
Draper, Utah 84020
The undersigned understands that M-GAB Development Corporation, a Florida
corporation (the "Company") has undertaken the filing of a registration
statement, on Form SB-2 (the "Registration Statement"), with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
For good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees, beginning upon the effectiveness of
the Registration Statement and extending for a period of sixty (60) days after
the termination of the offering of 2,000,000 shares of Company common stock
offered in the Registration Statement (the "Lock-Up Period"), not to offer to
sell, contract to sell or otherwise sell, dispose of, loan, pledge or grant any
rights with respect to (collectively, a "Disposition") the 450,000 shares of
Company common stock owned of record and beneficially by the undersigned and
included in the Registration Statement (collectively, the "Securities").
The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude the holder of the
Securities from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed
to or reasonably expected to lead to or result in a Disposition of Securities or
to have the economic consequence of a transfer of ownership of the Securities
during the Lock-Up Period even if such Securities would be disposed of by
someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or other
transactions would include without limitation any short sale (whether or not
against the box) or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including without
limitation any put or call option) with respect to any Securities or with
respect to any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index) that
includes, relates to or derives any significant part of its value from
Securities.
Furthermore, the undersigned hereby agrees and consents to the entry of
stop transfer instructions with the Company's transfer agent against the
transfer of the Securities held by the undersigned except in compliance with
this Lock-Up Agreement. In the event that the Registration Statement is not
declared effective, then this Lock-Up Agreement shall be of no further force or
effect.
This agreement will be governed and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of California. The undersigned agree to perform any further acts
and execute and deliver any other documents that may be reasonably necessary to
carry out provisions of this Lock-Up Agreement. This Lock-Up Agreement may be
altered, amended or modified in whole or in part at any time only
by a writing signed by the Company and the undersigned. This Lock-Up
Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties,
their respective heirs, legal representatives, beneficiaries, successors, and
permitted assigns.
The undersigned covenant and enter into this Lock-Up Agreement with the
knowledge that a restriction on the sale of stock by Company insiders is
important to the SEC and potential investors and that the parties will be
irreparably damaged in the event this Lock-Up Agreement is not specifically
enforced. Accordingly, in the event of any controversy concerning the right or
obligation to purchase or sell any of the stock of this Company or to perform
any other act pursuant to this Lock-Up Agreement, such right or obligation shall
be enforceable in a court of equity by a decree of specific performance. Such
remedy shall be cumulative and non-exclusive, being in addition to any and all
other remedies the parties may have. The party against whom specific
enforcement is being sought hereby waives any requirement for securing or
posting bond in connection with the enforcing party obtaining an injunction or
other form of equitable relief.
In the event any party hereto shall bring any action or proceeding to
enforce any provision of this Lock-Up Agreement against any other party (or any
transferee or rights pursuant hereto), the prevailing party, whether at trial or
on appeal, shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney fees, costs and
disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such party is entitled.
If any provision of this Lock-Up Agreement shall be for any reason invalid or
unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless continue in full
force without being invalidated in any way. This Lock-Up Agreement may be
executed in counterparts or by the use of separate signature pages attached
here, and shall constitute one (1) agreement, binding on the parties, even
though all the parties do not sign the same counterpart or same signature page.
A facsimile signature shall be deemed as effective as an original signature.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Lock-Up Agreement has been executed by the parties
hereto on the day and year first written above.
