Prospectus Summary

YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE INFORMATION SET FORTH UNDER "RISK FACTORS" on page 8.

BARNABUS ENTERPRISES LTD. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 11, 2002. We have not commenced active business operations.

We are a pre-exploration stage company that recently acquired our property. Our only property, the Mount claim, consists of one mineral claim covering 741 acres located in the Toodoggone area of North-Central British Columbia in the Liard Mining Division. We intend to explore for minerals and metals, including gold on our property. There can be no assurance that valuable minerals exist on our property until proper geological work and analysis is performed. Our property has no proven or probable mineral reserves. We own a 100% undivided mineral interest in the mineral claim and our title to the mineral claim gives us the rights to any of the mineral deposits situated on the claim.

We believe that Barnabus is not a blank check company as defined in section (a)(2) of Rule 419 of Regulation C under the Rules of the Securities Act of 1933 because Barnabus has a specific business plan and purpose particular to the objectives of a company in the junior exploration mining industry performing preliminary reconnaissance. The Company has no intention to merge with another company or allow itself to be acquired by another company, or to act as a blank check company.

As of today's date, we have spent $3,500 to purchase a 100% undivided mineral interest for the Mount mineral claim located in the Liard Mining District, British Columbia.

Our administrative office is located at 2006 - 1500 Hornby Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6Z 2R1, telephone (604) 899-8888. Our registered office is located at 699 Sierra Rose Drive, Suite B, Reno, Nevada, 89511. Our fiscal year end is May 31.

The Offering

 

Securities Offered

7,500,000 shares of common stock offered on a self-underwritten best-efforts basis.

 

Offering Price

The shares are offered at $0.01 per share for total gross offering proceeds of $75,000 if the total offering of 7,500,000 shares is sold.

 

Terms of the Offering

There is no minimum offering. Accordingly, as shares are sold, we will use the money raised for our activities. The offering will remain open for 90 days, or an additional 60 days at the sole discretion of our management, unless the total proceeds are earlier received or we determine, in our sole discretion to cease selling efforts.

 

Net Proceeds to Our Company

$75,000 if the total offering of 7,500,000 shares is sold.

 

Use of Proceeds

We will use the proceeds to pay for offering expenses, and conduct pre-exploration activities on our mineral property known as preliminary reconnaissance. We estimate that the required exploration work will cost up to $32,000 for a Phase I program. If we are not able to raise $75,000 in this offering, the principals of Barnabus intend to loan to the Company the shortfall in funds required to begin and complete Phase I. The principals of Barnabus will loan a maximum of $47,500 to the Company, of which $32,500 is required to begin and complete Phase I of the exploration program and $15,000 consists of the offering expenses (see "Use of Proceeds").

INVESTMENT IN OUR COMPANY INVOLVES SIGNIFICANT RISKS BECAUSE OUR MINERAL CLAIMIS AT THE EXPLORATION STAGE KNOWN AS PRELIMINARY RECONNAISSANCE AS OPPOSED TO THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE. OUR MINERAL CLAIM DOES NOT HAVE A KNOWN BODY OF COMMERCIAL ORE. THE FUNDS RAISED IN THIS OFFERING WILL BE USED TO CONDUCT A PHASE I EXPLORATION PROGRAM CONSISTING OF TRENCHING AND SAMPLING. IF OUR GEOLOGIST CONFIRMS OR RECOMMENDS FURTHER DIAMOND DRILLING BASED ON THE FINDINGS OF THE PRELIMINARY RECONNAISSANCE, WE WILL CONDUCT A PHASE II EXPLORATION PROGRAM. WE DO NOT PRESENTLY HAVE THE FUNDS TO CONDUCT A PHASE II PROGRAM. IF OUR GEOLOGIST RECOMMENDS FURTHER DRILLING, WE WILL RAISE ADDITIONAL FUNDS IN A FUTURE FINANCING.

Risk Factors

There is no assurance that our business will be profitable. We must conduct exploration to determine what amount, type and tenure of minerals, if any, exist on our property. We do not claim to have any reserves whatsoever at this time on any of our claims. An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed.

Management lacks technical skills and may cause irreparable harm to operations of Barnabus.

Management lacks technical training and experience with exploring for starting, and operating a mine. With no direct training or experience in these areas, our management may not be fully aware of many of the specific requirements related to working within this industry. Their decisions and choices may not take into account standard engineering or managerial approaches mineral exploration companies commonly use. Consequently, our operations, earnings, and ultimate financial success could suffer irreparable harm due to management's lack of experience in this industry. At all times where management lacks the skills, the Company intends to retain professional advice.

We are a recently organized business and you cannot evaluate the investment merits of our company because we have no operating history.

Our company is only recently organized with no operating history which makes it difficult to evaluate the investment merits of our company. Our company was recently organized on April 11, 2002 and is a start-up company. We have no operating history and we do not have any business prior to our organization. As of January 31, 2003, we incurred cash expenses of $26,153.

We may not be able to continue as a going concern if we do not obtain funds from this financing for Phase I

Because of our lack of funds and short operating history incurring only expenses, our independent accountants' audit report states that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditor pointed out that we incurred only losses since our inception raising substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, our ability to continue as a going concern is highly dependent upon obtaining additional financing for our planned operations. We are dependent upon this offering to be able to implement our business plan and our lack of revenues and profits may make obtaining additional capital more difficult. We presently have no significant operating capital and we are totally dependent upon receipt of the proceeds of this offering and loans from the principals of Barnabus to provide the capital necessary to commence our proposed Phase I exploration plans.

This offering will not be adequate to fund our Phase II Exploration Program

Our planned exploration program is separated into two phases. Assuming this offering is entirely sold, we will not have enough money to complete the second phase, which will cost approximately $195,000.

Because our Officers and Directors do not have formal training specific to the technicalities of mineral exploration, there is a higher risk our business will fail.

Although Chen and Nagy possess Free Miner licenses and Ms. Chen has management experience with mineral exploration companies, they do not have formal training as a geologist. Accordingly, we will have to rely on the technical services of trained explorationists and geologists. If we are unable to contract for the services of such individuals, it will make it difficult and maybe impossible to pursue our business plan. There is thus a higher risk of business failure.

Because our Officers and Directors have other business interests, they may not be able or willing to devote a sufficient amount of time to our business operations, causing our business to fail.

Ms. Chen presently spends approximately 20% of her business time on business management services for our company and Mr. Nagy plans to spend 5% of his time on the affairs of Barnabus. While Chen and Nagy presently possess adequate time to attend to our interests, it is possible that future demands on them from their other obligations could increase with the result that they would no longer be able to devote sufficient time to the management of our business. In addition, Chen and Nagy may not possess sufficient time for our business if the demands of managing our business increased substantially beyond current levels. Competing demands on their business time may cause them to have differing interest in approving significant corporate transactions from those of other stockholders.

We have no known Mineral Resources and if we cannot find any Mineral Resources we may have to cease operations.

We have no measured mineral bodies. If we do not find a mineral body or bodies containing valuable minerals or metals or if we cannot conduct further exploration of any discovered minerals, either because we do not have money to do it or because it is not economically feasible to do it, we may have to cease operations and you will loose your investment.

Weather interruptions in the province of British Columbia may affect and delay our proposed exploration operations.

Our mineral claim is located in a remote northern area of the province. Our current proposed Phase I exploration work can only be performed approximately five to six months out of the year. There is no direct road access to our mineral claim. Our mineral claim can only be reached by helicopter. The nearest road access point is located 22 miles from the mineral claim. As a result, rain, snow and adverse weather conditions may only allow us to work on our mineral claim for certain periods of time each year.

We may lose our interest in our mineral claim if we do not make $100,000 in Exploration Expenditures.

Under the Property Purchase Agreement and Amending Letter Agreement, if we do not expend $100,000 on the Mount Claim prior to December 31, 2005, we will have to transfer the property back to Lorne Warren, the initial locator of the property. There are no assurances that we can perform exploration work on the property in the amount of $100,000 by such date. The company will lose its assets if we do not meet this target. Barnabus may also extend the expiration date up to a maximum of 2 additional years by paying $2,000 per year commencing on December 31, 2003 and ending on December 31, 2006, for the right to extend the expiry date, and such total payments will be deducted from any royalty payments which may be required to be paid to Mr. Warren.

If we are unable to extend the expiration date for our mineral claim, we will lose our mineral interest.

The Mount Claim expires on April 21, 2004. If we are unable to extend the expiration date before April 21, 2004, we will lose our mineral claim. In order to renew our mineral claim and keep it in good standing, we have to pay approximately $800 to the Mineral Titles Branch or instead, complete and file an assessment report detailing the equivalent of $800 in work on the claim prior to April 21, 2004. Barnabus may allocate to future years any excess assessment work credits greater than $800.

Risks associated with this Offering:

Chen and Nagy will receive a substantial benefit from your investment and the investors of this Offering will assume most of the risk.

Chen and Nagy, currently our only shareholders will receive a substantial benefit from your investment. They invested $3,500 into the company to acquire 100% of the shares on a pre-offering basis and will have 6.25% on a post-offering basis if the entire offering is sold. You, on the other hand, will be providing all of the cash for our operations. As a result, if we cease operations for any reason, you will lose your investment while Chen and Nagy will lose approximately $3,500.

Offering is Being Made to Non-United States Residents and B.C. Residents but not other Canadian residents

A limited number of subscribers can purchase our securities because the offering will not be sold to residents of United States. The offer will be made mainly to B.C. residents and non-United States residents. The offer will not be made to other residents of Canada. The Company plans to reject any subscription agreement that indicates that the subscriber is a resident of the United States. This may limit our ability to raise 100% of this offering.

Non-U.S. and non-Canadian Shareholders may have problems enforcing their legal rights.

Those shareholders who are not resident of U.S. and Canada may have difficulties enforcing legal rights and effect service upon the Company in the United States or upon the directors or officers in British Columbia. Accordingly, non-U.S. shareholders may be forced to bring actions against the Company and its directors and respective officers under U.S. and/or Canadian laws or courts in order to enforce claims that they may have against the Company or its directors or officers. This may be difficult or expensive and materially affect the shareholders' ability to enforce their legal rights.

If the principals convert their potential loan into shares of the Company, the equity interest of the shareholders may be diluted in value.

The principals of the Company may loan to Barnabus the balance of the funds to begin and complete Phase I for a maximum amount of $47,500. If the principals call in their loan, the Company may negotiate a shares for debt conversion, the terms of which will be determined by market conditions. The shares to be issued cannot be determined now and if a large number of shares are issued in the future, this may dilute the equity interest of the shareholders.

Because there is No Public Trading Market for our Common Stock, you may not be able to resell your shares.

Our company plans to list its shares on the NASD's OTC Bulletin Board. There are no assurances that we will be successful in listing our shares. There is currently no public trading market for our common stock. Therefore there is no central place, like a stock exchange or electronic trading system, to resell your shares. If you do want to resell your shares, you will have to locate a buyer and negotiate your own sale. Therefore, you may not be able to resell your shares.

Re-sale Restrictions for British Columbia Residents

Subscribers who are residents of British Columbia relying on an exemption from prospectus and registration requirements of B.C. securities laws for the purchase of the Company's securities will have to comply with B.C. Securities Commission's BC Instrument 72-502 "Trade In Securities of U.S. Registered Issuers" to resell their shares. BC Instrument 72-502 requires, among other conditions, that B.C. residents hold the shares for 12 months and limit the volume of shares sold in a 12-month period. (See "Canadian Securities Law"). These restrictions will limit the ability of the B.C. residents to resell the securities in the United States and therefore, may materially affect the market value of your shares.

Use Of Proceeds

The net proceeds to us from the sale of the 7,500,000 shares offered hereby at a public offering price of $0.01 per share will vary depending upon the total number of shares sold. Regardless of the number of shares sold, we expect to incur offering expenses estimated at $15,000 for legal, accounting, printing and other costs in connection with the offering.

If we are not able to raise $75,000 in this offering, the principals of Barnabus intend to loan to the Company the shortfall in funds required to begin and complete Phase I. The principals of Barnabus will loan a maximum of $47,500 to the Company, of which $32,500 is required to begin and complete Phase I of the exploration program and $15,000 consists of the offering expenses. If the principals advance any loan to the Company, such loan is repayable on demand by the principals, and incurs interest at the Canadian prime interest rate plus 3%.

The table below shows how proceeds from this offering and any loan proceeds from the principals would be used for scenarios where our company sells various amounts of the shares and the priority of the use of net proceeds in the event actual proceeds are not sufficient to accomplish the uses set forth. The principal loans will remain as a liability on the balance sheet and the Company does not intend to repay these loans from offering proceeds. Pending use, we will invest the net proceeds in investment-grade, short-term, interest bearing securities.

If the principals call in their loan, the Company plans to negotiate a share for debt conversion or some other refinancing deal depending on market conditions. Any securities issued to the principals will be restricted stock and will not be part of this offering. Presently, the principals have no intentions to call in their loan, if such loan is advanced to the Company.

(1)   The estimated offering expenses will be paid in the following order of priority: $6.90 Securities and Exchange Commission Registration Fee, $1,000 Blue Sky Fees, $7,000 Legal Fees, $1,000 Printing and Shipping, $5,000 Accounting Fees and $993.10 Transfer Agent and Miscellaneous fees. Any unpaid offering expenses will be paid from the proceeds of loans to be made by our principals of the Company. As of May 31, 2002, $7,306 in offering costs have been deferred, and this amount is already included as part of the $28,683 accounts payable showing on the Company's balance sheet as at January 31, 2003. An additional $7,694 in offering costs will be incurred and is due when the Company closes its offering. The difference between $28,000 and $7,306 (or $20,694) will have to be raised from further financings in order to settle this balance of accounts payable. The type of financing will depend on market conditions and may be in the form of additional principal loans.

(2)   The use of net proceeds describes the expenses that will be incurred in association with Phase I of our business plan. Phase II of the business plan will not be implemented until the success of Phase I is evaluated to determine whether further exploration work is warranted (See "Proposed Exploration Program"). For this reason, we will retain as working capital any sums not utilized in Phase I until further financing is obtained for Phase II assuming further exploration work is warranted.

(3)   Site Access Costs include: $3,900 Camp Costs, $1,430 Reclamation Bond, $9,295 Helicopter Support and $1,300 Mobilization/Demolition. See "Total Phase I" costs under the "Business" heading.

(4)   Trenching and Blasting include: $1,950 for supplies and equipment, $2,275 for 1 senior prospector, $2,275 for 1 certified blaster, $1,462 for 1 prospector and $1,040 for 1 labourer. See "Total Phase I" costs under the "Business" subheading.

Phase I of our business plan will cost $32,500 and includes the undertaking of a geological report at a cost of $3,250 which is a prerequisite for our exploration activities. The funds raised in this offering will be used to conduct a Phase I exploration program consisting of trenching and sampling. If our geologist confirms or recommends further work including diamond drilling, we will conduct a Phase II exploration program. See heading "Proposed Exploration Program" for description of specific milestones. We do not presently have the funds to conduct a Phase II program. If our geologist recommends drilling, we will raise additional funds in a future financing or enter into a joint venture relationship with a third party (see "Joint Venture Partner" under "Property Exploration Program"). We presently do not have a joint venture partner in mind and there are no assurances that we will find a suitable joint venture partner. Phase II will cost approximately $195,000.

Possible working capital uses include general and administrative expenses, to be determined by our executive officers based upon their assessment of our company's needs.

Any funds not used for the purposes indicated will be used for general working capital. If less than the entire offering is received, funds will be applied according to the priorities outlined above. The principals of our Company will loan any difference resulting from the shortfall of paying offering expenses as well as any costs to file quarterly and annual reports required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

We intend to use the proceeds of this offering substantially in the manner set forth above and in the order of listed priority.

Pursuant to the Property Purchase Agreement, if Barnabus does not expend $100,000 on the property prior to December 31, 2005, the Company will be required to transfer the mineral claim back to the previous owner.

Determination Of Offering Price

There is no established public market for the shares of common stock being registered. As a result, the offering price and other terms and conditions relative to the shares of common stock offered hereby have been arbitrarily determined by us and do not necessarily bear any relationship to assets, earnings, book value or any other objective criteria of value. In addition, no investment banker, appraiser or other independent, third party has been consulted concerning the offering price for the shares or the fairness of the price used for the shares.

Dilution

You will suffer substantial dilution in the purchase price of your stock compared to the net tangible book value per share immediately after the purchase.

Dilution is the difference between the public offering price of $0.01 per share for the common stock offered herein, and the net tangible book value per share of the common stock immediately after its purchase. Our net tangible book value per share is calculated by subtracting our total liabilities from our total assets less any intangible assets, and then dividing by the number of shares then outstanding.

Our net book value prior to the offering, based on the May 31, 2002 financial statements, was ($25,258) or approximately ($0.05052) per common share. Prior to selling any shares in this offering, we had 500,000 shares of common stock outstanding, which were purchased by the founding shareholders for $3,500. We are now offering up to 7,500,000 shares at $0.01 per share.

If all shares offered herein are sold, we will have 7,500,000 shares outstanding upon completion of the offering. Our post offering pro forma net book value, which gives effect to receipt of the net proceeds from the offering on all shares sold but does not take into consideration any other changes in our net tangible book value, will be $49,742 or approximately $0.00622 per share. This would result in dilution to investors in this offering of ($0.00378) per share, or approximately 62% from the public offering price of $0.01 per share. Net tangible book value per share would increase $0.05673 per share for our current shareholder.

Plan Of Distribution

General

The following discussion addresses the material terms of the plan of distribution.

The offering is being made on a self-underwritten best-efforts basis. We are offering up to 7,500,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.01 per share to be sold by Kerry Nagy, one of our directors. Victoria Chen will not be offering the securities for sale. This will be the only method of distribution. Barnabus does not intend to make any distribution through an underwriter or on the Internet. The shares will be sold through our principal executive officer and director, so no compensation will be paid with respect to those sales, except for reimbursement of expenses actually incurred on behalf of our company in connection with such activities. Since this offering is conducted as a direct participation offering, there can be no assurance that any of the shares will be sold. A subscription agreement, the form of which is attached to this prospectus, will be required to be submitted by all purchasers of the shares.

The offering will not be sold to officers, directors or affiliates of Barnabus. There is no minimum purchase amount. The offer will be made mainly to B.C. residents and non-United States residents. The offer will not be made to other residents of Canada. If the subscriber is a resident of British Columbia, he or she must be a close relative, friend or business associate of a senior officer or director of the Company, or if it is a corporate entity, then the corporation must be wholly-owned by one or more close relative, friend or business associate of a senior officer or director of the Company. Subscribers who are resident in a jurisdiction other than U.S. or British Columbia must comply with the applicable securities law of these jurisdictions. The Company plans to reject any subscription agreement that indicates that the subscriber is a resident of the United States. If the Company decides to solicit subscribers who are residents of the United States, we will issue an amended prospectus reflecting such changes.

There is currently no market for any of our shares and no assurances are given that a public market for such securities will develop after the closing of this offering or be sustained if developed. While we plan following the closing of this offering to take affirmative steps to request or encourage one or more broker/dealers to act as a market maker for our securities, no such efforts have yet been undertaken and no assurances are given that any such efforts will prove successful. As such, investors may not be able to readily dispose of any shares purchased hereby.

Our director, Kerry Nagy, who is an associated person of us as that term is defined in Rule 3a4-1 under the Exchange Act, shall conduct the offering. Mr. Nagy is deemed not to be a broker for the following reasons:

*   He does not have a statutory disqualification as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(39) of the Exchange Act at the time of his participation in the sale of our securities.

*   He will not be compensated for his participation in the sale of our securities by the payment of commission or other remuneration based either directly or indirectly on transactions in securities.

*   He is not an associated person of a broker or dealers at the time of his participation in the sale of our securities.

*   He will restrict his participation to the following activities:

A.   Preparing any written communication or delivering any communication through the mails or other means that does not involve oral solicitation of a potential purchaser;

B.   Responding to inquiries of potential purchasers in a communication initiated by the potential purchasers, provided however, that the content of responses are limited to information contained in a registration statement filed under the Securities Act or other offering document;

C.   Performing ministerial and clerical work involved in effecting any transaction.

As of the date of this prospectus, no broker has been retained by us for the sale of securities being offered. In the event a broker who may be deemed an underwriter is retained by us, an amendment to our registration statement will be filed.

The offering will remain open for a period of 90 days or an additional 60 days at our sole discretion, unless the entire gross proceeds are earlier received or we decide, in our sole discretion, to cease selling efforts.

No Escrow of Proceeds

There is no escrow of any of the proceeds of this offering. Accordingly, we will have use of such funds once we accept a subscription and funds have cleared. Such funds shall not be paid back to subscribers except as may be required by applicable law.

Ms. Chen will continue to serve in her present positions with Barnabus until the next annual meeting of shareholders and devote approximately 20% (or 8 hours per week) of her business time to Barnabus. Ms. Chen has no formal training or technical experience with mineral exploration but she does have management and regulatory bodies experience with mineral exploration companies. Ms. Chen's responsibilities with Barnabus consists mainly of communicating with the appropriate governmental agencies to ensure the company claims are kept in good standing and coordinating the filing of this offering. In addition, Phase I of the company's business plan will be performed by subcontractors, the activities of which will be managed by Ms. Chen. It is anticipated that additional officers will be hired if Phase I of our business plan is successful to manage the company's day to day mineral exploration activities.

Mr. Nagy will continue to serve in his present positions with the company until the next annual meeting of shareholders and devote 5% (or 2 hours per week) of his business time to Barnabus.

Conflicts of Interest

We believe that Victoria Chen could have conflict of interest relationships with other mineral exploration companies. Ms. Chen will continue to be involved in the mineral exploration business for other entities and her involvement could create conflicts of interest. At the present time, we do not foresee any direct conflicts because we intend to explore and develop our own mineral claim. However, in the future, we may enter into joint venture relationships with companies which Ms. Chen is affiliated. The only conflicts that we foresee is Ms. Chen's devotion to time to other mineral exploration projects that do not involve us.

Executive Compensation

To date, our directors do not currently receive and has never received any compensation for serving as a director of the company. In addition, at present, there are no ongoing plans or arrangements for compensation of any of our officers.

However, we expect to adopt a plan of reasonable compensation to our officers and employees when and if we become operational and profitable.

The following table sets forth all compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid for services rendered to us in all capacities during the period ended May 31, 2002, by Ms. Chen, our sole executive officer.

Prior to the sale of any shares in this offering, Ms. Chen and Mr. Nagy were the only shareholders of Barnabus.

Other than their stock holdings, Ms. Chen and Mr. Nagy do not have a material direct or indirect interest in a present or prior transaction with Barnabus.

Description of Securities

The shares registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part are shares of common stock, all of the same class and entitled to the same rights and privileges as all other shares of common stock.

Common Stock

Barnabus is presently authorized to issue 75,000,000 shares of $.001 par value common stock. The holders of common stock, including the shares offered hereby, are entitled to equal dividends and distributions, per share, with respect to the common stock when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors from funds legally available therefore. No holder of any shares of common stock has a pre-emptive right to subscribe for any securities of our company nor are any common shares subject to redemption or convertible into other securities of our company. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, and after payment of creditors and preferred stockholders, if any, the assets will be divided pro-rata on a share-for-share basis among the holders of the shares of common stock. All shares of common stock now outstanding are fully paid, validly issued and non-assessable. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote with respect to the election of any director or any other matter upon which shareholders are required or permitted to vote. Holders of our company's common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, so that the holders of more than 50% of the combined shares voting for the election of directors may elect all of the directors, if they choose to do so and, in that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any members to the Board of Directors.

Barnabus has reserved from its authorized but unissued shares a sufficient number of shares of common stock for issuance of the shares offered hereby. The shares of common stock issuable upon subscription of the offering will be, when issued in accordance with the terms of the offering, fully paid and non-assessable.

Options and Warrants

We do not presently have any options or warrants authorized or any securities that may be convertible into common stock. However, our board of directors may later determine to authorize options and warrants for our company.

Dividend Policy

We have not previously paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate or contemplate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Our present intention is to utilize all available funds for the development of our business. There is no assurance that we will ever have excess funds available for the payment of dividends. The only legal restrictions that limit the ability to pay dividends on common equity or that are likely to do so in the future, are those restrictions imposed by state laws. Under Nevada corporate law, no dividends or other distributions may be made which would render our company insolvent or reduce assets to less than the sum of its liabilities plus the amount needed to satisfy any outstanding liquidation preferences.

Anti-Takeover State Laws

The General Corporation Law of Nevada contains certain provisions which could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeovers or changes in control and discourage attempts to acquire us. However, our bylaws specifically deem such provisions not to apply to us.

Blank Check Company

We believe that Barnabus is not a blank check company as defined in section (a)(2) of Rule 419 of Regulation C under the Rules of the Securities Act of 1933 because Barnabus has a specific business plan and purpose particular to the objectives of a company in the junior exploration mining industry conducting preliminary reconnaissance. The Company has no intention to merge with another company or allow itself to be acquired by another company, or to act as a blank check company.

Transfer Agent

We intend to use Madison Stock Transfer, of 1813 E. 24th Street, Brooklyn, New York 11229, as our transfer agent and registrar for the common stock upon completion of the offering.

Shares Eligible For Future Sale

Upon completion of this offering, we will have 8,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding, if we sell all of the shares in this offering. Of these shares, up to 7,500,000 shares to be sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933.

The remaining 500,000 of common stock held by our affiliates were issued and sold by us in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The 500,000 shares are "restricted securities" and the limitations of Rule 144 will apply. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that offers or sales of these shares would have on the market price. Nevertheless, sales of significant amounts of restricted securities in the public markets could adversely affect the fair market price of the shares, as well as impair our ability to raise capital through the issuance of additional equity shares.

In general, under Rule 144, a person who has beneficially owned shares for at least one year is entitled to sell, within any three-month period, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of (1) one percent of the then outstanding shares of common stock or (2) the average weekly trading volume in the common stock in the over-the-counter market during the four calendar weeks preceding the date on which notice of the sale is filed, provided several requirements concerning availability of public information, manner of sale and notice of sale are satisfied. In addition, our affiliates must comply with the restrictions and requirements of Rule 144, other than the one-year holding period requirement, in order to sell shares of common stock which are not restricted securities.

Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not an affiliate and has not been an affiliate for at least three months prior to the sale and who has beneficially owned shares for at least two years may resell their shares without compliance with the foregoing requirements. In meeting the one-and two-year holding periods described above, a holder of shares can include the holding periods of a prior owner who was not an affiliate. The one-and two-year holding periods described above do not begin to run until the full purchase price or other consideration is paid by the person acquiring the shares from the issuer or an affiliate.

There is presently no agreement by any holder, including our "affiliates", of "restricted" shares not to sell their shares.

Canadian Securities Law

Subscribers who are residents of British Columbia relying on an exemption from prospectus and registration requirements of B.C. securities laws for the purchase of the Company's securities will have to comply with B.C. Securities Commission's BC Instrument 72-502 "Trade In Securities of U.S. Registered Issuers" to resell their shares.

According to BC Instrument 72-502, a B.C. resident who acquired securities under a prospectus exemption in a company that is not a reporting issuer under the B.C. Securities Act may sell those securities without filing a prospectus under the Act, if the following conditions are met:

(1) The securities of the company are registered under section 12 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the company is required to file reports under section 15(d) of that Act.

(2) The seller's residential address or registered office is in British Columbia.

(3) A 12-month period has passed since the date the company issued the securities to the seller, or a control person sold the securities to the seller. This 12-month hold period does not apply to securities that a seller acquired under a director or employee stock option.

(4) If the seller is a control person of the company, then the seller has held the securities for at least 6 months.

(5) The number of securities the seller proposes to sell under this Order, plus the number of securities of the company of the same class that the seller has sold in the preceding 12-month period, does not exceed 5% of the company's outstanding securities of the same class.

(6) The seller sells the securities through a registered investment dealer.

(7) The registered investment dealer executes the trade through an exchange, or market, outside Canada.

(8) There has been no unusual effort made to prepare the market or create a demand for the securities.

(9) The seller has not paid any extraordinary commission or other consideration for the trade.

(10) If the seller is an insider of the company, the seller reasonably believes that the company is not in default of the securities legislation (including U.S. federal and state securities legislation) that governs the company.

If a security acquired under a prospectus exemption is converted or exchanged into another security, the converted or exchanged security is considered the same security under this Instrument.

Penny Stock Regulation

Our shares will have to comply with the Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 which may potentially decrease your ability to easily transfer our shares. Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks" are regulated. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. 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 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 monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer 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. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that has to comply with the penny stock rules. As our shares immediately following this offering will likely have to comply with such penny stock rules, investors in this offering will in all likelihood find it more difficult to sell their securities.

Holders

There are 2 shareholders of record for the common shares.

Dividends

No dividends have been declared on the common shares as of the date hereof.

Certain Transactions

In connection with the organization of Barnabus, Ms. Chen, the President, Secretary and Director of our company, and Mr. Nagy, our Treasurer and Director each paid $1,750 cash on April 11, 2002 to purchase an aggregate of 500,000 shares of common stock at $0.007 per share. As of January 31, 2003, Victoria Chen also advanced $1,380 to the Company for the payment of legal fees.

Barnabus presently has no office facilities but for the time being will use as its business address the office of Ms. Chen on a rent free basis, until such time as the business operations of our company may require more extensive facilities and our company has the financial ability to rent commercial office space. There is presently no formal written agreement for the use of such facilities, and no assurance that such facilities will be available to our company on such a basis for any specific length of time.

We have no formal written employment agreement or other contracts with our officers, and there is no assurance that the services to be provided by them, and facilities to be provided by Ms. Chen, will be available for any specific length of time in the future. Ms. Chen anticipates initially devoting up to approximately 20% of her business time to the affairs of our company. If and when the business operations of our company increase and a more extensive time commitment is needed, Ms. Chen is prepared to devote more time to our company, in the event that becomes necessary. The amounts of compensation and other terms of any full time employment arrangements with our company would be determined if and when such arrangements become necessary.

Business

History And Organization

Barnabus Enterprises Ltd. was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on April 11, 2002. We have not commenced business operations and we are considered a pre-exploration stage enterprise. To date, our activities have been limited to organizational matters, obtaining a summary report on the Mount Claim and the preparation and filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. In connection with the organization of our company, the founding shareholders of our company contributed an aggregate of $3,500 cash in exchange for 500,000 shares of common stock. We have no significant assets, and we are totally dependent upon the successful completion of this offering and receipt of the proceeds from the offering, of which there is no assurance, for the ability to commence our proposed business operations.

We believe that Barnabus is not a blank check company as defined in section (a)(2) of Rule 419 of Regulation C under the Rules of the Securities Act of 1933 because Barnabus has a specific business plan and purpose particular to the objectives of a company in the junior exploration mining industry conducting preliminary reconnaissance. The Company has no intention to merge with another company or allow itself to be acquired by another company, or to act as a blank check company.

Proposed Business

Our plan of operations is to carry out exploration work on the Mount Claim and to ascertain the quantities of copper, zinc, silver, gold and other valuable minerals. We will not be able to determine whether or not our mineral claims contain a mineral deposit, or reserve, until appropriate exploratory work is done and an economic evaluation based on that work concludes economic viability.

On April 11, 2002, we acquired a 100% undivided mineral interest from Lorne B. Warren, the owner of the Mount Claim, located in Toodoggone area, Liard Mining Division, British Columbia. We are presently in the pre-exploration stage and there is no assurance that a mineral deposit exists on the mineral claim until appropriate geological exploration is done and a final comprehensive evaluation is concluded. There are no mineral reserves on the mineral claim and our proposed exploration program is entirely exploratory in nature.

The exploration program known as preliminary reconnaissance proposed by Barnabus is designed to determine whether mineralization exists to the extent that further exploration is recommended to outline any such discovered mineralized zones. It is uncertain at this time the precise quantity of minerals in the property that would justify actual mining operations. If we decide to abandon our mineral claim at any stage of our exploration program, we intend to acquire other properties and conduct similar exploration programs. The other properties may be located in the same mining district or we may decide to seek properties in other locations in the Province of British Columbia. Although management presently intends to explore properties located in British Columbia, we may in the future explore properties located in other jurisdictions, which may include other provinces in Canada, or in the United States.

Lorne B. Warren staked the claims. The claims are due to expire on April 21, 2004 if not kept in good standing. We intend to keep the claims in good standing. In order to keep our mineral claim in good standing, we have to pay approximately $800 to the Mineral Titles Branch of the British Columbia government, or instead, complete and file assessment work equivalent to $800 for each year prior to April 21, 2004. Barnabus may allocate to future years any assessment work completed for greater than $800. Ms. Chen and Mr. Nagy are holding recorded title to the mineral interest in the mineral claim in their names as trustees, on behalf of Barnabus. The mineral claim is recorded in the names of Ms. Chen and Mr. Nagy to avoid paying additional fees, however, Ms. Chen and Mr. Nagy signed a Declaration of Trust confirming that Barnabus is the beneficial owner of the mineral interest in the mineral claim. We will be required to form a wholly-owned British Columbia corporation which contains a board of directors a majority of which will have to be British Columbia residents and pay a minimum of $500 and register other documentation to be able to file a Bill of Sale on the Company's behalf. We have decided that if exploration results warrant we will: (1) file as a foreign corporation; (2) appoint directors of the subsidiary corporation who are residents of British Columbia; (3) pay the additional fees; and (4) record the claim in our name. The decision to record or not record the mineral claim in our name is solely within our discretion.

Property Purchase Agreement

Pursuant to the Property Purchase Agreement dated April 11, 2002 and Amending Letter Agreement dated October 1, 2002, Barnabus acquired a 100% undivided mineral interest in the Mount Claim from Lorne B. Warren for cash consideration of $3,500. Mr. Warren retained a 3% Net Smelter Return Royalty on the mineral claim, but Barnabus has a right to repurchase a portion of such royalty interest at a price of $1,000,000 for each 30% interest to the royalty to an aggregate of 60%. Under the Property Purchase Agreement, if Barnabus does not expend a total of $100,000 on the Mount Claim prior to December 31, 2005, the mineral claim ownership will go back to Lorne Warren. Barnabus may also extend the expiration date up to a maximum of 2 additional years by paying $2,000 per year commencing on December 31, 2003 and ending on December 31, 2006, for the right to extend the expiry date, and such total payments will be deducted from any royalty payments which may be required to be paid to Mr. Warren.

Summary Report

Our business activities to date have been restricted to obtaining a summary report on the Mount Claim from John M. Mirko dated April 30, 2002 and preparing this offering. Mr. Mirko is an experienced explorationist, prospector and businessman, however Mr. Mirko is not a geologist. Mr. Mirko is a self-employed explorationist and development consultant who has been involved in all aspects of exploration and exploitation of resource properties for 30 years. Since 1972, Mr. Mirko has conducted prospecting, geology, geophysics, geochemisty, property evaluation, project management and mine site supervision for large and small resource companies. Mr. Mirko does not have any conflict of interest with Barnabus in preparing the report nor does he have any interest in the Mount Claim or Barnabus. The report is based on the knowledge of Mr. Mirko and his work experience. Mr. Mirko's report details the geological and exploration history of the Mount Claim owned by Barnabus, including the land status, climate, geology and mineralization. Mr. Mirko believes that based upon previous exploration activity in the area and his personal knowledge of the property, sufficient evidence exists to warrant further exploration on the Mount Claim.

The Mount Claim is 100% owned by Barnabus and is located in the Liard Mining Division of British Columbia, comprising 741 acres. A recent sampling of a recessive weathering pyritic-rich feldspar porphyry unit gave anomalous gold values of 0.17 and 1.2 grams/tonne, respectively, which are positive results that warrant further exploration. To properly establish the sources of the coincident gold and copper soil geochemical anomalies, Mr. Mirko recommends further trenching and diamond drilling.

A two phase exploration and drilling program has been proposed. Phase I consists of trenching and blasting on the property and is estimated to cost $32,000. Phase II will be contingent on the success of Phase I and will consist of diamond drilling at a proposed cost of $195,000. Our exploration program known as preliminary reconnaissance is designed to efficiently explore and evaluate our mineral claim.

Canadian Mining Law

Work on the claim is governed by the laws of British Columbia. Title to mineral claims are issued and administered by the Mineral Titles Branch, Ministry of Energy and Mines, and title must comply with all provisions under the Mineral Tenure Act (British Columbia). A mineral claim acquires the right to the minerals which were available at the time of location and as defined in the Mineral Tenure Act (British Columbia). There are no surface rights included, but the title holder has the right to use the surface of the claim for mining proposes only. All work carried out on a claim that disturbs the surface by mechanical means requires a Notice of Work and must receive written approval from the District Inspector of Mines prior to commencement.

Location and Access

The Mount claim is located in north-central British Columbia at the northern-end of the Toodoggone area approximately 35 kilometres north of the past producing Lawyers Mine.

The Mount claim is located at 57 degrees, 47' north latitude and 127 degrees 35' west longitude, NTS map sheet No. 094E/13E, Liard Mining Division, British Columbia. The nearest road access is to the Lawyers/Energex mine area, and then by helicopter to the property, a distance of 35 kilometres. Alternative points of supply could be either from Iskut, a town on Highway 37 (120 km), or the Kutcho mining property airstrip (75 km) to the north. Floatplane access to numerous lakes in the area is also available up to 20 km away from the property.

Camps and airstrip sites are available on/or near the property. Exploration activities are best carried out during the summer season from June to mid-October and water is present year round in the main valley as creeks or ponds. We do not expect any unusual challenges in accessing the property via helicopter.

Claim Status

The Mount Claim consists of one mineral claim covering 300 hectares (741 acres), record no. 385784. Claim title is recorded with the Provincial Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources. The anniversary date for the Mount Claim is April 21, 2004. The recorded owners are Kerry Nagy (50%) and Victoria Chen (50%), both being directors of Barnabus. Chen and Nagy are holding the mineral interest to the mineral claim as trustees on behalf of Barnabus. The beneficial owner of the Mount Claim is Barnabus. Chen and Nagy signed a Declaration of Trust confirming that Barnabus is the beneficial owner of the mineral claim. If Barnabus does not fulfill the $100,000 expenditure requirements prior to December 31, 2005, Barnabus will instruct Chen and Nagy to transfer the mineral claim back to Lorne B. Warren, the original owner of the Mount Claim. Barnabus may also extend the expiration date up to a maximum of 2 additional years by paying $2,000 per year commencing on December 31, 2003 and ending on December 31, 2006, for the right to extend the expiry date, and such total payments will be deducted from any royalty payments which may be required to be paid to Mr. Warren.

Physical Features

The property covers a southerly facing slope and height of land of rugged mountainous terrain. Elevations range between 1,370 and 2,250 metres above sea level. Outcrop frequency is low, mainly restricted to peaks, cliffs and gullies. Talus with slopes of 35-37 degrees covers higher elevations, while lower elevations are covered by brush, grasses and sub alpine fir trees.

History Of The Claims

No evidence of recorded exploratory work exists on the property prior to 1980. Original staking was completed by a French government controlled mining company called S.E.R.E.M. Inc. in July 1980 to cover the suspected source of highly anomalous stream sediment samples in gold. The initial claims were the Mountain (20 units), Mountain 2 (12 units), Mountain 3 (18 units) and the Sheila's (20 units), covering, principally, the height of land and much of the westerly flowing drainage.

References to sources of the following information is found in Mr. Mirko's Summary Report attached hereto as an exhibit.

S.E.R.E.M. undertook silt, soil and rock sampling, geological mapping in 1980, followed in 1981, 1982 and 1983 with prospecting and further rock sampling. V.L.F. electro-magnetic/resistivity surveys and geological mapping were completed in 1985.

As reported by geologists M.R. Vulimiri and S.A. Crawford for S.E.R.E.M. Inc. in 1981, 282 soil samples were collected on the Mountain Claim, on contour traverses at 150 metre intervals with sample locations at 50 metre intervals. "B" horizon material, where developed, or the top of the "C" horizon was collected and placed in brown paper soil envelopes and sent to Min-En Laboratories for analysis for gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc.

Generally, downslope migration of material does not appear to greatly influence the geochemical anomalies although weaker geochemical responses is seen, at lower elevations. This may reflect more extensive barren material cover over the anomalous zones rather than a decrease in anomaly strength.

Exploration completed by Waymar Resources Ltd. during July and August 1996 consisted of prospecting the height of land and cirques to the north and west, rock sampling within the northerly cirque, geological mapping, magnetometer, and V.L.F.-E.M. surveys and a logistical examination pertaining to the location and servicing of five proposed diamond drill holes. Since Waymar Resources' investigations in 1996, no further work has been conducted on the property, and all claims were allowed to lapse prior to Lorne B. Warren staking the area of interest as the "Mount" claim.

Geology

The Mount Claim is underlain by Upper Triassic Takla volcanic and sedimentary rocks which include limestone, sandy limestone, chert and porphyritic flows. Intrusions by multi-phased plutons and diorite, monzonite, quartz monzonite and aplite cut the Takla Group. All rock types are intruded by narrow diabase and andesitic dykes.

The unit is poorly defined but appears to be approximately 1,300 metres long north-south and 500-600 metres wide. As outcrop frequency is low, the interpretation of geological unit boundaries or contacts can only be made from projections of known outcrops and the frequency of rock types in talus debris.

Recommendations

The Mount Claim covers a large area of volcanic and sedimentary Takla group rocks which has been intruded by multi-phased plutons of diorite, monzonite, quartz monzonite and apilite. Contact zones have been converted to hornfels, and the limy sediments to actinote, tremolite, epidite, chlorite and skarn. Soil geochemistry for gold, copper, silver, lead and zinc has outlined two strong distinct anomalies. The easterly anomaly is approximately 700 metres long by 250 metres wide with gold values greater than 0.1 grams/tonne and a high of 6.2 grams/tonne. The westerly anomaly is approximately 500 metres long by 100 metres wide with gold values greater than 0.1 grams/tonne and a high of 2.5 grams/tonne. While previous rock sampling by S.E.R.E.M. failed to locate the source of the high gold responses, recent sampling of a recessive weathering pyritic-rich feldspar porphyry unit gave anomalous gold values of 0.17 and 1.2 grams/tonne, respectively.

To properly establish the source of the coincident gold and copper soil geochemical anomalies, trenching and further diamond drilling will be necessary.

Diamond drill holes across the high coincident geochemical anomalies in the area of 10800E between 10950N and 11200N, and 10300E between 10800N and 11100N are recommended after the assumed anomaly source areas have been trenched and sampled.

Proposed Exploration Program

There are no known mineral reserves on the Mount claim. Our proposed exploration program is entirely exploratory in nature.

Our plan of operations is to carry out exploration work on the Mount Claim to ascertain the quantities of copper, zinc, silver, gold and other valuable minerals. We will not be able to determine whether or not our mineral claims contain a mineral deposit until appropriate exploratory work is done. The Company will conduct preliminary reconnaissance, which includes but is not limited to sampling and trenching, to determine if the mineralization or geology exhibits potential for expansion of size of concentration in the opinion of the geologist or other qualified persons. At this stage of preliminary reconnaissance there is no specific quantifiable number of valuable minerals that will trigger more work. It is later on in the exploration and development program that quantifiable results will be obtainable.

Exploration must be conducted to determine the amount and configuration of minerals, if any, which exist on the property. Our exploration program is designed to efficiently explore and evaluate our claims.

We do not claim to have any resources whatsoever at this time on any of our claims. We intend to implement an exploration program and to proceed in two phases as described below.

The funds raised in this offering will be used to conduct a Phase I exploration program consisting of trenching and sampling. If our geologist confirms or recommends further work including diamond drilling, we will conduct a Phase II exploration program. We do not presently have the funds to conduct a Phase II program. If our geologist recommends drilling, we will raise additional funds in a future financing or enter into a joint venture relationship with a third party. We presently do not have a joint venture partner in mind and there are no assurances that we would find a suitable joint venture partner.

Phase I involves trenching on the claim which means digging and blasting into the ground up slope of the anomalies originally identified in the soil samples, down to the bedrock and taking representative samples for mineral content, including gold, silver and copper.

The total number of man working days required for Phase I completion is estimated to be 10 days. An additional 7 days is required to analyze the bedrock samples and record results. The total cost of Phase I is approximately $32,500. The total time required to complete Phase I will depend on the weather conditions. If we conduct Phase I during the summer, it will be a total of 10 man working days.

Phase 2

If results from Phase I are favourable, diamond drill hole sites will be spotted and we plan to retrieve drill core for analysis from any expected source rock to explain the anomalous soil sample results.

A Phase 2 work programme is conditional upon results of Phase 1 and will provide for diamond drilling and support as recommended by the Company's consultant for which the Company has budgeted a proposed estimate of CAD$300,000 (USD195,000) allocated as follows:

Geological and Technical Staff

We are unable to name the geologists and engineers who will be performing work for Barnabus because they have not been retained. At the right time, we will hire from the available pool of contract geologists depending on the time of the year and availability of experience. Presently, there are no agreements or understandings to hire such geologists or engineers.

Joint Venture Partner

If the results are positive from Phase I or Phase II, we plan to enter into a joint venture relationship with another company that has experience in the mineral exploration and development business. The joint venture partner may provide funding in terms of additional exploration expenditures, and operational experience if the mineral claim is determined to have any potential for proven mineral reserves. If we enter into a joint venture agreement with another partner, we may have to sell an interest in the claim and issue additional shares in return for exploration funds from the joint venture partner. If our mineral claim has merit, the joint venture partner will act as both a financier and operational partner.

Competitive Factors

The mineral industry is fragmented. We compete with other exploration companies looking for a variety of mineral resources. We are a very small exploration company compared to many of our competitors. Although we will be competing with other exploration companies, there is no competition for the exploration of minerals on our mineral claim. We intend to explore and find sufficient mineralization to a point in which major mining companies or mining financial groups would seriously consider pursuing the mineral claim as a valuable and significant acquisition.

Location Challenges

We do not expect any major challenges in accessing the property during the initial exploration stages.

Regulations

Our mineral exploration program will comply with the British Columbia Mineral Tenure Act. This act sets forth rules for:

*  locating claims
*  posting claims
*  working claims
*  reporting work performed

We also have to comply with the British Columbia Mineral Exploration Code which tells us how and where we can explore for minerals. We must comply with these laws to operate our business. Compliance with these rules and regulations will not adversely affect our operations.

In order to explore for minerals on our mineral claim we must submit the plan contained in this prospectus for review. We believe that the plan as contained in this prospectus will be accepted and an exploration permit will be issued to us or our agent. The exploration permit is the only permit or license we will need to explore for precious and base minerals on the mineral claim.

We will be required to obtain additional work permits from the British Columbia Ministry of Energy and Mines for any exploration work that results in a physical disturbance to the land. Accordingly, we will be required to obtain a work permit if we proceed with the second phase of our exploration program. There is a charge of approximately $1,500 in order to obtain a work permit under the Mining Act. The time to obtain a work period is approximately four weeks. We will incur the expense of our consultants to prepare the required submissions to the Ministry of Energy and Mines. We will be required by the Mining Act to undertake remediation work on any work that results in physical disturbance to the land. The cost of remediation work will vary according to the degree of physical disturbance. No remediation work is anticipated as a result of completion of Phase I of the exploration program.

We have budgeted for regulatory compliance costs in the proposed exploration program recommended by the summary report. As mentioned above, we will have to sustain the cost of reclamation and environmental remediation for all exploration and other work undertaken. The amount of reclamation and environmental remediation costs are not known at this time as we do not know the extent of the exploration program that will be undertaken beyond completion of the recommended exploration program. Because there is presently no information on the size, tenor, or quality of any mineral resource at this time, it is impossible to assess the impact of any capital expenditures on earnings or our competitive position in the event a potential mineral deposit is discovered.

If we enter into substantial exploration, the cost of complying with permit and regulatory environment laws will be greater than in Phase I because the impact on the project area is greater. Permits and regulations will control all aspects of any program if the project continues to that stage because of the potential impact on the environment. We may be required to conduct an environmental review process under the British Columbia Environmental Assessment Act if we determine to proceed with a substantial project. An environmental review is not required under the Environmental Assessment Act to proceed with the recommended Phase I or Phase II exploration programs on our Mount Claim.

Environmental Factors

We will also have to sustain the cost of reclamation and environmental remediation for all work undertaken which causes sufficient surface disturbance to necessitate reclamation work. Both reclamation and environmental remediation refer to putting disturbed ground back as close to its original state as possible. Other potential pollution or damage must be cleaned-up and renewed along standard guidelines outlined in the usual permits. Reclamation is the process of bringing the land back to a natural state after completion of exploration activities. Environmental remediation refers to the physical activity of taking steps to remediate, or remedy, any environmental damage caused, i.e. refilling trenches after sampling or cleaning up fuel spills. Our Phase I and II programs do not require any reclamation or remediation other than minor clean up and removal of supplies because of minimal disturbance to the ground. The amount of these costs is not known at this time as we do not know the extent of the exploration program we will undertake, beyond completion of the recommended two phases described above. Because there is presently no information on the size, tenor, or quality of any resource or reserve at this time, it is impossible to assess the impact of any capital expenditures on our earnings or competitive position in the event a potentially-economic deposit is discovered.

Employees

Initially, we intend to use the services of contractors and consultants for exploration work on our properties. Barnabus will consider hiring technical consultants with funds from this offering and additional offerings or if revenues from operations in the future permit. At present, our only employee is Ms. Chen. We believe keeping a low number of full-time employees will conserve cash and allow greater flexibility in the future.

Employees and Employment Agreements

At present, we have no employees, other than Ms. Chen, our President and director who has received no compensation for her services. Ms. Chen does not have an employment agreement with us. We presently do not have pension, health, annuity, insurance, stock options, profit sharing or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt plans in the future. There are presently no personal benefits available to any employees.

Management's Discussion Or Plan Of Operations

We are a start-up, pre-exploration company and have not yet started our business operations or generated or realized any revenues from our business operations. The Company has no cash requirements until it closes its offering and commences Phase I program. We believe that Barnabus is not a blank check company as defined in section (a)(2) of Rule 419 of Regulation C under the Rules of the Securities Act of 1933 because Barnabus has a specific business plan and purpose particular to the objectives of a company in the junior exploration mining industry conducting preliminary reconnaissance. The Company has no intention to merge with another company or allow itself to be acquired by another company, or to act as a blank check company.

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors believe there is doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than the sale of minerals found, if any, on the mineral claim. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by others in our company. We must raise cash to implement our project and stay in business.

To meet our need for cash we are attempting to raise money from this offering. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise enough money through this offering to stay in business. Whatever money we do raise will be applied to exploration. If we do not raise all of the money we need from this offering, we will have to find alternative sources, like a second public offering, a private placement of securities, or loans from our officers or others. At the present time, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash, other than through this offering and the principal loan agreement. If we need additional cash and cannot raise it, we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely.

We will not be conducting research in connection with the exploration of the mineral claim. We are not going to buy or sell any plant or significant equipment. We do not expect a change in our number of employees.

Results of Operations

From Inception on April 11, 2002

We just recently acquired our mineral interest in the Mount Claim located in the Liard Mining Division, British Columbia. At this time we have not yet commenced the exploration stage of our operations on the property. We paid $3,500 for our mineral interest. As of January 31, 2003 we have experienced operating losses of $26,153.

Plan of Operations

Since inception, we have used our common stock to raise money for our mineral interest acquisition. If we need additional working capital, we plan to borrow the funds from our principals as shareholder loans. Our business activities to date have been restricted to obtaining a summary property report and preparing this offering.

Barnabus' plan of operations for the next twelve months is to undertake Phase I of our exploration program. In any given calendar year, the earliest time the Company could begin exploration work in Phase I is early June and the latest is mid October. For the year 2003, the Company would begin work at the earliest on July 1 because of the late cold winter conditions this year. If we are not able to raise $75,000 in this offering, the principals of Barnabus intend to loan to the Company the shortfall in funds required to begin and complete Phase I. The principals of Barnabus will loan a maximum of $47,500 to the Company, of which $32,500 is required to begin and complete Phase I of the exploration program and $15,000 consists of the offering expenses (see "Use of Proceeds"). We have no plan to engage in any alternative business if Barnabus ceases or suspends operations as a result of not having enough money to complete any phase of the exploration program.

Our proposed exploration program is set forth in the "Business" section of this prospectus.

Upon completion of Phase I, we will determine the viability of proceeding to Phase II. We will undertake to have our data from Phase I independently verified for accuracy by an independent registered engineer to confirm the results.

This offering will only be adequate to finance Phase I. Assuming we decide to proceed with Phase II, we will be required to obtain additional financing. Phase II will consist predominantly of diamond drilling for which $195,000 is reserved to determine the extent, depth and dip of mineralization discovered, if any, in Phase I. Phase II will take approximately six months to complete.

If we complete Phase I and decide not to proceed with Phase II, we plan to acquire additional exploration properties and conduct similar exploration programs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of the date of this registration statement, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operations. Since our inception, Ms. Chen and Mr. Nagy have paid $3,500 in cash in exchange for 500,000 shares of common stock. This money has been used for the Property Purchase Agreement. As of January 31, 2003 we had sustained operating losses of $26,153.

Presently, we have $104 in cash and plan to use this for ordinary working capital. As of January 31, 2003, we have $28,683 in accounts payable consisting of accrued accounting fees of $4,683 and accrued legal fees of $24,000. The Company plans to raise further financings to settle the accounts payable and the type of financing will depend on market conditions and may be in the form of additional principal loans. The Company has no cash requirements until it closes its offering and commences Phase I program.

If we are not able to raise $75,000 in this offering, the principals of Barnabus intend to loan to the Company the shortfall in funds required to begin and complete Phase I. The principals of Barnabus will loan a maximum of $47,500 to the Company, of which $32,500 is required to begin and complete Phase I of the exploration program and $15,000 consists of the offering expenses (see "Use of Proceeds"). Assuming sufficient funds are raised in this offering to complete Phase I, we will be able to evaluate within the next 12 months whether to proceed with Phase II. Should we decide to proceed with Phase II, we will be required to raise an additional $195,000.

The funds raised in this offering will be used to conduct a Phase I exploration program consisting of trenching and sampling. If our geologist confirms or recommends diamond drilling, we will conduct a Phase II exploration program. We do not presently have the funds to conduct a Phase II program. If our geologist recommends further work including drilling, we will raise additional funds in a future financing or enter into a joint venture relationship with a third party. We presently do not have a joint venture partner in mind and there are no assurances that we would find a suitable joint venture partner.

The Company has the sole discretion to purchase the 3% net smelter return royalty ("NSR") held by Lorne Warren when the NSR payable is greater than 100% of the estimated cash payout value over the life of the mine. For example, if Barnabus is required to pay more than $1,000,000 over the life of the mine for 30% of the 3% NSR, the Company may purchase up to 60% of the NSR. Therefore, to purchase 30% of the NSR, Barnabus may pay Warren $1,000,000. However, this decision will depend on the Company's estimate of how long the particular grade of mineral reserves may be mined over the life span of the mine. For example, if the mine has a relatively short life span for a particular grade of mineral reserve, it may not be economically feasible to purchase 30% of the NSR even though the Company is required to pay more than $1,000,000 for 30% of the 3% NSR. This decision will be made after consulting with our geologist and financial analyst at that particular time.

Description of Property

We own a 100% beneficial interest in the mineral rights of the Mount Claim and we may have to give the mineral rights back to Lorne B. Warren, the original locator of the mineral claim, if we do not expend $100,000 on the mineral claim by December 31, 2005. We do not own or lease any property other than our mineral rights in the Mount Claim. In the future, we may acquire other exploration properties and conduct similar exploration programs.

We currently do not pay any rent for our office space at 2006 - 1500 Hornby Street, Vancouver, British Columbia.

Legal Matters

The validity of the shares offered under this prospectus is being passed upon for us by the law firm of Fraser and Company, Vancouver, British Columbia.

Experts

The financial statements of Barnabus Enterprises Ltd. for the period from inception on April 11, 2002 through May 31, 2002 and from June 1, 2002 to January 31, 2003 included in this prospectus have been examined by Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton, independent auditors, as indicated in their respective reports, and are included in this prospectus in reliance on the report given upon the authority of that firm as experts in accounting and auditing.

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.

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Directors of
BARNABUS ENTERPRISES LTD.

We have audited the balance sheet of Barnabus Enterprises Ltd. as at May 31, 2002 and the statements of operations and deficit and cash flows for the period from April 11, 2002 (Inception) to May 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with United States generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance 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.

In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at May 31, 2002 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the period from April 11, 2002 (Inception) to May 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, the Company has been in the pre-exploration stage since its inception on April 11, 2002. Realization of a major portion of the assets is dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its future financing requirements, and the success of future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE PERIOD FROM APRIL 11, 2002 (INCEPTION)

TO MAY 31, 2002

(IN U.S. DOLLARS)

1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Barnabus Enterprises Ltd. (the "Company") filed for incorporation on April 11, 2002 under the laws of the state of Nevada primarily for the purpose of acquiring, exploring and developing mineral properties. The Company's fiscal year end is May 31st.

The Company is in the pre-exploration stage, as it has not realized any significant revenues from its planned operations. The Company is actively seeking additional capital and management to explore for metals, including gold and other valuable minerals, on the recently acquired mineral claim, the Mount Claim, in British Columbia, Canada. However, there are inherent uncertainties in mining operations and management cannot provide assurances that it will be successful in this endeavour. The Company has not yet determined whether the mineral claim has reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of amounts from the mineral claim will be dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserve, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to satisfy the expenditure requirements under the property agreement and to complete the development of the mineral claim and upon the future profitable production or proceeds for the sale thereof.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

a) Pre-exploration stage company

The Company complies with Financial Accounting Standard Board Statement No. 7 and The Securities and Exchange Commission Exchange Act Guide 7 for its characterization of the Company as pre-exploration stage.

b) Pre-exploration stage activities

The Company has been in the pre-exploration stage since its formation on April 11, 2002 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mining properties. Upon location of a commercial mineable reserve, the Company expects to actively prepare the site for extraction and enter into the development stage.

c) Going concern

The Company's financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis that contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $24,952 for the period ended May 31, 2002 and had no sales. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONT'D

 

d) Accounting method

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting.

e) Basic and diluted loss per share

Loss per share was computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares was calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. Basic and diluted loss per share were the same, as there were no common stock equivalents outstanding.

f) Cash and cash equivalents

For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

g) Provision for taxes

At May 31, 2002, the Company had a net operating loss of approximately $24,952. No provision for an income tax benefit relating to this loss has been reported in the financial statements, as there is not a measurable means of assessing future profits or losses.

h) Use of estimates

The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.

i) Impaired asset policy

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a statement titled "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Live Assets." In complying with this standard, the Company reviews its long-lived assets quarterly to determine if any events or changes in circumstances have transpired which indicate that the carrying value of its assets may not be recoverable. The Company determines impairment by comparing the undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be generated by its assets undiscounted to their respective carrying amounts. The Company does not believe any adjustments are needed to the carrying value of its assets at May 31, 2002.

j) Exploration costs

In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company will expense exploration costs as incurred.

k) Foreign currency translation

The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standard No.52. There were no foreign currency translation adjustments required at May 31, 2002. The Company will record future foreign currency translation results as a separate component of stockholders equity.

l) Derivative instruments

In June, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This standard establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.

At May 31, 2002, the Company has not engaged in any transactions that would be considered derivative instruments or hedging activities.

m) Deferred offering costs

Deferred offering costs represent professional fees and other expenses related to filing registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission in anticipation of a planned share offering. These costs will be netted against proceeds of the offering when it completes.

3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company is engaged in the exploration and development of one mineral claim. At present there are no feasibility studies establishing proven and probable reserves.

Although the minerals exploration and mining industries are inherently speculative and subject to complex environmental regulations, the Company is unaware of any pending litigation or of any specific past or prospective matters which could impair the value of its mineral claim.

The Company plans to file an SB-2 registration statement in connection with an initial public offering of up to 7,500,000 common shares at a price of $0.01 per share on a self-underwritten basis with no minimum amount of shares that must be sold. This offering is subject to regulatory approval and will remain open for 90days, or an additional 60 days at the sole discretion of the management.

The Company has signed a contract with a securities attorney to assist in this matter. Total fees to be paid for the offering, including legal, accounting and other costs, amount to $15,000. Of this amount, $7,306 has been recorded as deferred issue costs as at May 31, 2002. The remaining $7,694 will be due when the Company's registration statement is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

4. RELATED PARTY

 

An officer of the Company has advanced monies to the Company for the payment of legal fees. This amount is unsecured, is non-interest bearing, and has no fixed terms for repayment.

5. COMMON STOCK

 

a) Authorized: 75,000,000 with $0.001 par value

b) Issued: 500,000 shares for total cash consideration of $3,500 ($500 in share capital and $3,000 in additional paid-in-capital)

On April 11, 2002, 500,000 shares of common stock were issued to officers and directors only for cash. There was no public offering of any securities. These shares were issued pursuant to exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

6. MINERAL CLAIM

 
 

Mount Claim

$3,500

Pursuant to a purchase agreement dated April 11, 2002, the Company acquired an undivided 100% interest of one mineral claim in the Liard Mining Division in the Toodoggone area of North-Central British Columbia, Canada, for a cash payment of $3,500.

Under the agreement, if the Company fails to expend $100,000 on the mineral claim prior to December 31, 2003, the Company will be required to transfer the mineral claim back to the previous owner.

The claim is subject to a 3% net smelter return royalty. Net smelter return means the actual proceeds from sale of concentrates, metals or products from the property after deducting assay costs, smelting and refining charges, and related insurance levied by third parties.

The Company has a right to purchase up to an aggregate of sixty percent (60%) of such royalty interest at a price of $1,000,000 for each thirty percent (30%) interest. In addition, after December 31, 2005, the Company will have the right to extend the agreement for an additional 5 years by paying an annual renewal fee of $2,000.

As there are no known mineral reserves on our mineral claim and in view of the uncertainty with respect to recovery of costs incurred to acquire the claim this amount was written off during the period.

Although the minerals exploration and mining industries are inherently speculative and subject to complex environmental regulations, the Company is unaware of any pending litigation or of any specific past or prospective matters which could impair the value of its mining claims.

The Company plans to file an SB-2 registration statement in connection with an initial public offering of up to 7,500,000 common shares at a price of $0.01 per share on a self-underwritten basis with no minimum amount of shares that must be sold. This offering is subject to regulatory approval and will remain open for 90days, or an additional 60 days at the sole discretion of the management.

The Company has signed a contract with a securities attorney to assist in this matter. Total fees to be paid for the offering, including legal, accounting and other costs, amount to $15,000. Of this amount, $7,306 has been recorded as deferred issue costs as at January 31, 2003. The remaining $7,694 will be due when the Company's registration statement is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

4. RELATED PARTY

 

An officer of the Company has advanced monies to the Company for the payment of legal fees. This amount is unsecured, is non-interest bearing, and has no fixed terms for repayment.

5. COMMON STOCK

 

a) Authorized: 75,000,000 with $0.001 par value

b) Issued: 500,000 shares for total cash consideration of $3,500 ($500 in share capital and $3,000 in additional paid-in-capital)

On April 11, 2002, 500,000 shares of common stock were issued to officers and directors only. There was no public offering of any securities. The above referenced shares were issued in payment for purchasing mineral claim in Liard Mining Division of British Columbia, Canada in the amount of $3,500 (Note 6). These shares were issued pursuant to exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

6. MINERAL CLAIM

 

Pursuant to a purchase agreement dated April 11, 2002, the Company acquired an undivided 100% interest of one mineral claim in the Liard Mining Division in the Toodoggone area of North-Central British Columbia, Canada, for a cash payment of $3,500.

Under the agreement, if the Company fails to expend $100,000 on the mineral claim prior to December 31, 2005, the Company will be required to transfer the mineral claim back to the previous owner unless the Company exercises its right to extend the agreement to a maximum of two additional years to December 31, 2007 by paying US$2,000 per year from December 31, 2003 to December 31, 2006. All extension payments may be deducted against the net smelter return royalty.

The claim is subject to a 3% net smelter return royalty.

The Company has a right to purchase up to an aggregate of sixty percent (60%) of such royalty interest at a price of $1,000,000 for each thirty percent (30%) interest.

As there are no known mineral reserves on our mineral claim and in view of the uncertainty with respect to recovery of costs incurred to acquire the claim this amount was written off during the period ended May 31, 2002.

Part II - Information Not Required In Prospectus

Item 24.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The Company's Bylaws and sections 78.7502 and 78.751 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provide for indemnification of the Company's officers and directors in certain situations where they might otherwise personally incur liability, judgments, penalties, fines and expenses in connection with a proceeding or lawsuit to which they might become parties because of their position with the Company. Sections 78.7502 and 78.791 provide as follows:

Section 78.7502.   Discretionary and mandatory indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents: General provisions.

(1)   A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and that, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

(2)   A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorneys' fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.

(3)   To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections 1 and 2, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him against expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense.

Section 78.751  Authorization required for discretionary indemnification; advancement of expenses; limitation on indemnification and advancement of expenses.

(1)   Any discretionary indemnification under NRS 78.7502 unless ordered by a court or advanced pursuant to subsection 2, may be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances. The determination must be made:

(a)   By the stockholders;

(b)   By the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding;

(c)   If a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or

(d)   If a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion.

(2)   The articles of incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by the corporation may provide that the expenses of officers and directors incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding must be paid by the corporation as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. The provisions of this subsection do not affect any rights to advancement of expenses to which corporate personnel other than directors or officers may be entitled under any contract or otherwise by law.

(3)   The indemnification and advancement of expenses authorized in or ordered by a court pursuant to this section:

(a)   Does not exclude any other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the articles of incorporation or any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, for either an action in his official capacity or an action in another capacity while holding his office, except that indemnification, unless ordered by a court pursuant to NRS 78.7502 or for the advancement of expenses made pursuant to subsection 2, may not be made to or on behalf of any director or officer if a final adjudication establishes that his acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law and was material to the cause of action.

(b)   Continues for a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and inures to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

Our directors and officers shall be indemnified for any monies they pay in settlement of actions performed while a director or officer. This may hurt our profitability.

Our Bylaws and sections 78.7502 and 78.751 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provide for indemnification of our officers and directors in certain situations where they might otherwise personally incur liability, judgments, penalties, fines and expenses in connection with a proceeding or lawsuit to which they might become parties because of their position with the Company. We have authorized the indemnification of our officer and director to the full extent available under the Nevada Revised Statutes.

To the extent that indemnification may be related to liability arising under the Securities Act, the Securities and Exchange Commission takes the position that indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 28.  Undertakings

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)  To file, during any period in which offer or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

I.   To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

II.  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post effective amendment) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement;

III. To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to the information in the Registration Statement.

(2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering.

(3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission any supplementary and periodic information, documents, and reports as may be prescribed by any rule or regulation of the Commission heretofore or hereafter duly adopted pursuant to authority conferred to that section.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to our certificate of incorporation or provisions of Nevada law, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission the indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. If a claim for indemnification against liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant)of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding is asserted by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant 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 the indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of the issue.
