36,096,540 Shares of Common Stock

        Certain shareholders of SAN Holdings, Inc. (“SANZ”) may offer and sell shares of SANZ common stock under this prospectus.

The shareholders will receive any profit resulting from the resale of the warrant shares to the public.

        The selling shareholders may offer the shares through dealers or brokers in the over-the-counter market, or in privately negotiated transactions. Sales through dealers or brokers will be made with customary commissions being paid by the selling shareholders. Persons assisting the selling shareholders with respect to privately negotiated transactions may also receive compensation. See “Plan of Distribution.”

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

Risk Factors

        An investment in our shares involves a high degree of risk. Factors that may affect our business and include those discussed below under the heading “Risk Factors.”

Our Business

        SAN Holdings, Inc., hereafter SANZ, provides sophisticated enterprise-level data storage and management solutions to clients in the commercial and federal markets. In the industry, we are known as a “storage solution provider.” We focus exclusively on the design, delivery, and management of intelligent network storage solutions, and provide the following products and services:

 • Custom storage solutions that we design and deliver as a project to meet a client’s specific needs.

 • Integrated solution products for specific market segments.

 • Storage system management outsourcing services.

        Historically, we have generated revenue from a mix of project, product re-sale, and project-based services, as well as recurring revenues from storage management outsourcing contracts. Recently we began developing integrated solution products that provide data storage and management solutions tailored to deliver optimized performance for particular market segments. Our new product offerings include EarthWhereTM, an engineered storage and data management system designed specifically for the unique data requirements of geospatial imagery, and SANZStreamTM solutions, designed to address the particular requirements for rich media data storage and distribution. We expect to begin selling our integrated solution products in 2002.

        Growing demand for data storage is the result of a proliferation of data intensive applications, from areas as sophisticated as document imaging, digital video, e-banking, e-education, scientific research, and archiving satellite imagery, to those as basic as email. The common thread among these applications is that data storage is an enabling element. In addition to fundamental issues of data storage, data availability becomes critical. Today’s businesses depend on rapid response time, both internally and with vendors and customers via the Internet, making high availability essential for virtually all server applications. Consolidating data storage in networks at centralized data centers lowers costs through increased utilization and more efficient management.

        Our principal executive offices are located at 900 West Castleton Road, Suite 100, Castle Rock, Colorado. Our telephone number is (303) 660-3933.

The Offering

        The selling shareholders consist of persons who hold securities that we issued in our recently completed acquisition of ITIS Services, Inc. (hereafter, “ITIS”), and in private placement transactions to obtain cash or services for our business. The selling shareholders also include some of our officers and directors. Accordingly, the shares held by the selling shareholders are restricted securities and are subject to restrictions on resale arising under the Securities Act of 1933. We are registering the resale of the selling shareholders common stock so that they may freely resell their common stock without the legal restrictions and inconvenience associated with reselling restricted securities under the Securities Act. An individual selling shareholder may choose any of several methods for the resale of shares, as described in “Plan of Distribution,” below.

Use of Proceeds

        We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling shareholders. If any warrants are exercised, SANZ may receive cash proceeds. Any proceeds we receive from warrant exercise will be used for working capital. See “Use of Proceeds.”

RISK FACTORS

        In addition to the other information contained in this prospectus, prospective investors should carefully consider the following factors in evaluating SANZ, its business and financial condition before purchasing shares offered hereby. We believe the risks and uncertainties described below may materially affect SANZ. There also could be additional risks and uncertainties, that we are unaware of or that we currently deem immaterial, which may become important factors that affect our financial condition or results.

We may not be successful in growing our business quickly enough to support the investment we are making in infrastructure and technical resources.

We continue to expand our engineering staff and sales force and improve our infrastructure, both through internal growth and our recent acquisitions, to support both expanded selling and project execution elements necessary for our growth objectives. If we fail to achieve revenue and gross margin growth to cover this increased overhead, our progress to breakeven and profitable operations will be delayed.

Our ability to grow our business depends on others.

Our ability to grow our business depends in part on certain actions taken by others. For example, our technology partners could change their marketing strategies and de-emphasize their use of marketing partners such as SANZ. In addition, our technology partners have imposed minimum number and training requirements for engineering and sales staff. While we currently meet these requirements, if we lose any engineers or salespeople due to turnover or if we are unable to hire and train a sufficient number of engineers or salespeople, we could lose business generated through these partners.

We must effectively integrate ITIS with SANZ and recognize expected synergies.

Acquisitions entail a number of risks, including: problems integrating the acquired operations’ technologies or products with our existing business and products; diversion of management’s time and attention from our core business; and difficulties in retaining business relationships with suppliers and customers of the acquired company. Achieving the anticipated benefits of the ITIS acquisition will depend in part upon whether we are able to effectively integrate the businesses. Even if we are able to integrate ITIS’ operations and economic conditions remain stable, there can be no assurance that the anticipated synergies will be achieved.



4


There will be risks associated with introducing new products.

We have recently completed development of two new products, EarthWhereTM and SANZstreamTM. Both have been introduced but neither has yet generated any sales. We will continue to evaluate opportunities to develop other integrated product solutions. Market acceptance of new products may be slow or less than we expect; SANZstreamTM in particular addresses an as-yet undeveloped market segment. The products also may not perform in a manner that is required by the market, or our competitors may be more effective in reaching the market segments we are targeting with these products. Slow market acceptance of these products will adversely affect our financial results.

Due to our limited operating history and the uncertain acceptance of our new products, we may have difficulty accurately predicting revenue for future periods and appropriately budgeting for expenses.

The Company’s limited operating experience, our recent and significant increase in size through the acquisition of ITIS, and other factors beyond our control reduce our ability to accurately forecast our quarterly and annual revenue. If our revenue does not increase as anticipated, significant losses could result due to expense levels that were established in anticipation of that revenue growth.

We have experienced and expect to continue to experience significant period-to-period fluctuations in our revenue and operating results.

A number of factors may particularly contribute to fluctuations in our revenue and operating results, including: the timing of orders from, and product integration by, our customers, and the tendency of these customers to change their order requirements frequently with little or no advance notice to us; deferrals of customer orders in anticipation of new products, services, or product enhancements from us or our competitors or from other providers of storage networking products; and the rate at which new markets emerge for products we are currently developing.

Our business is dependent on a market that is new and unpredictable.

Storage area networks, or SANs, were introduced in 1997. As a result, the market for SANs and related products has only recently begun to develop and is rapidly evolving. Because this market is new, it is difficult to predict its potential size or future growth rate. If this market does not develop and expand as we anticipate, our business will suffer.

Public sale of previously restricted shares acquired at prices below current market price could cause the market price of our shares to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

All of the shares registered for sale on behalf of the selling shareholders are “restricted securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. We have filed the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part to permit the public sale of the restricted shares currently outstanding, as well as shares issued to the selling shareholders upon exercise of warrants they hold. Any shares not sold by selling shareholders pursuant to this prospectus will remain as restricted securities in the hands of the holder. The outstanding shares were purchased, and outstanding warrants are exercisable, at prices as low as $0.625 per share. The sale into the public market of shares purchased at prices below the current market price could have a depressive effect on the market price for our shares. These restricted shares were issued to acquire ITIS, were sold to raise capital, or were issued as compensation for services. As a condition of the acquisition of ITIS, we agreed to register the shares we issued to ITIS shareholders for public sale. In other private issuances, we also agreed to include those securities in any registration statement that we filed, including the ITIS shareholder registration statement. These restricted shares could be sold publicly on the date the registration statement becomes effective, even if that date is earlier than the Rule 144 sale date shown below. As a condition to the ITIS acquisition, however, holders of approximately 4,068,507 shares issued in the acquisition agreed not to sell those shares until various dates in the third and fourth quarters of 2002, except under limited exceptions, even if the registration statement becomes effective prior to those dates. As restrictions on resale end, the market price for our common stock could drop significantly if the holders of these restricted shares sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them.

We may require additional capital to fund our business.

We executed a $2.5 million bank line of credit on May 31, 2001, and began drawing on this line early in 2002. We also recently raised approximately $1.0 million of additional equity capital in a private placement. Our current working capital, coupled with the recent private placement and the line of credit, should finance operations for 2002. However, we may need to raise additional funds due to changes in economic conditions and the unpredictable nature of the market. We continue to maintain relationships that could provide sources of equity and/or debt in case such a need should arise. However, there is no assurance funding will be available on favorable terms or in an amount sufficient to fund our expanded business plan as quickly as we have projected. If equity capital were raised, the issuance of those shares would also be dilutive to the ownership interests of all other stockholders.

We are a relatively small company with limited resources compared to some of our current and potential competitors.

Some of our current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater resources, broader name recognition, and a larger installed base of customers than we have. As a result, these competitors may have greater credibility with our existing and potential customers. They also may be able to adopt more aggressive pricing policies and devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products than we can to ours, which would allow them to respond more quickly than us to new or emerging technologies or changes in customer requirements. In addition, some of our current and potential competitors have already established supplier or joint development relationships with decision makers at our current or potential customers.

No dividends.

SANZ has never paid cash dividends on common stock. We it do not contemplate paying dividends in the foreseeable future since we will use all of our earnings, if any, to finance expansion of our operations. See “Market for Our Shares and Related Shareholder Matters - Dividends.”

Preferred stock authorized for issuance.

We are authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The board of directors has the power to establish the dividend rates, liquidation preferences, voting rights, redemption and conversion terms and privileges with respect to any series of preferred stock. As of the date of this prospectus, there are no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding, and the board of directors has no current plan to issue any shares of preferred stock. However, at any time the board may issue shares of preferred stock having rights superior to those of the common stock. This could cause the market price of our common stock to decrease. Preferred shares could be issued as a device to prevent a change in control of SANZ. Holders of preferred stock may have the right to receive dividends, certain preferences in liquidation and conversion rights.

USE OF PROCEEDS

        SANZ will not receive any proceeds from sales of shares by the selling shareholders. SANZ will receive proceeds if outstanding warrants are exercised for cash. Many of the outstanding warrants also permit cashless exercise. See “Plan of Distribution - Sale of Securities by SANZ.” Based on recent market prices for our common stock, we believe it unlikely that warrants at prices greater than $1.00 will be exercised in the near future. If all warrants exercisable at or below $1.00 are exercised for cash, gross proceeds to SANZ would total $2,778,245. Any proceeds will be used for working capital.

SANZ AND ITS BUSINESS

        This prospectus contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding our expectations, beliefs, or intentions about the future. The statements are based on information available to us at this time, and we assume no obligation to update any of these statements. Actual events and results could differ materially from our expectations because of many factors, including those identified in the section titled “Risk Factors.” We urge you to review and consider those factors, and those identified from time to time in our reports and filings with the SEC, for information about risks and uncertainties that may affect our future results. All forward-looking statements we make after the date of this filing are also qualified by this cautionary statement and identified risks.

        SANZ provides sophisticated enterprise-level data storage and management solutions to clients in the commercial and federal markets. In the industry, we are known as a “storage solution provider.” We focus exclusively on the design, delivery, and management of intelligent network storage solutions, and provide the following products and services:

 • Custom storage solutions that we design and deliver as a project to meet a client’s specific needs.

 • Integrated solution products for specific market segments.

 • Storage system management outsourcing services.

        Historically, we have generated revenue from a mix of project, product re-sale, and project-based services, as well as recurring revenues from storage management outsourcing contracts. Recently we began developing integrated solution products that provide data storage and management solutions tailored to deliver optimized performance for particular market segments. Our new product offerings include EarthWhereTM, designed specifically for the unique requirements of geospatial imagery storage and distribution, and SANZStreamTM, designed to facilitate distribution and storage of rich media content. We expect to begin selling our integrated solution products in 2002.

        Growing demand for data storage is the result of a proliferation of data intensive applications, from areas as sophisticated as document imaging, digital video, e-banking, e-education, scientific research, and archiving satellite imagery, to those as basic as email. The common thread among these applications is that data storage is an enabling element. In addition to fundamental issues of data storage, data availability becomes critical. Today’s businesses depend on rapid response time, both internally and with vendors and customers via Internet, making high availability essential for virtually all server applications. Consolidating data storage in networks at centralized data centers lowers costs through increased utilization and more efficient management.

Our Background

        SANZ was formed as a Colorado corporation in 1983. We commenced our current business in 2000, when we acquired three companies with varying degrees of presence in the storage products and solutions marketplace. These three companies, Storage Area Networks, Inc., CoComp, Inc., and Value Technology, Inc., merged their operations and currently operate as our wholly owned subsidiary, Storage Area Networks, Inc. In October 2001, we acquired certain operating assets of ECOSoftware Systems, Inc. a privately held storage networking consulting and integration firm based in Boulder, Colorado.

        In December 2001, we acquired ITIS Services, Inc., a privately held data storage consulting and storage solutions provider firm with offices in Norwalk, Connecticut and Boston, Massachusetts. ITIS' business model closely matched ours, except that it had not yet developed its own integrated solution products. ITIS historically served exclusively the commercial markets. Its client base includes large, national financial services, healthcare and technology companies. By acquiring ITIS, we have established a more significant market presence in the eastern United States and in the commercial markets in general. Certain officers of ITIS now are officers and directors of SANZ.

        As of April 24, 2002, SANZ’ executive officers are: John Jenkins, Chairman and CEO; Fred T. Busk, Chief Operating Officer; Holly J. Burlage, Chief Financial Officer, and Hugh O’Reilly, Senior Vice President - Legal and Administration.

        SANZ’ principal executive offices are located at 900 West Castleton Road, Suite 100, Castle Rock, CO 80104. Our telephone number is (303) 660-3933.

Our Business

        The market for data storage solutions is generally robust and broad-based, though not immune to the capital-spending slump that began affecting the U.S. economy in 2001. Industry analysts such as IDC, The Yankee Group and Dataquest predict that corporate IT departments will spend between 50 and 65 cents of every dollar over the next five years on data storage products, as companies increase their requirements for data storage by 100 percent or more per year. Industry analyst Gartner estimates that purchases of storage components and services will grow from $20 billion in 2001 to $49 billion in 2004. Further, the investment bank CIBC predicts that storage spending will grow at twice the rate of total IT spending, while networked storage in turn will grow at twice the rate of the total storage market.

        We design, deliver, and manage sophisticated data storage solutions based on Storage Area Networks (“SAN”) and Network Attached Storage (“NAS”). These are secondary, high-speed computer networks dedicated to backup and storage functions. SAN and NAS have been increasingly recognized as the promising new architecture that have the capability to solve many of the storage issues arising in today's open systems networks. These issues include:



8


 • Rising cost in server-based storage environments due to inefficient storage utilization and high maintenance costs

 • Increased isolation and resulting performance degradation of storage resulting from restrictive server-to-storage connectivity and incompatible storage protocols

 • Increased complexity in upgrading server and storage capacities

 • Requirements for comprehensive data security, protection, and disaster recovery capabilities.

        By centralizing data storage functions, storage networks create a reservoir of data storage that can be shared by multiple servers and is accessible over long distances. Networked storage solutions permit large amounts of data to be shared, managed, and accessed among diverse servers and storage systems running different computer operating systems or software applications. This increased manageability and superior performance are particularly important for applications that depend on transfer of high volumes of data, such as found in imaging, pharmaceutical development and complex financial analysis.

Our Clients

        While we have always sought to serve both federal government and commercial markets, until the recent acquisition of ITIS, our sales were highly concentrated in the federal government sector. By acquiring ITIS, with its East-coast commercial client base, we expect to achieve a more balanced mix of federal government and commercial business.

        Our federal government clients include agencies involved in national defense, law enforcement, and high performance government computing and government logistics. Included in our federal government business are sales directly to government end-users, as well as sales to prime contractors who provide various services to government end-users. During 2001, we were the largest reseller of StorageTek equipment to federal government end-users.

        While we do not restrict our commercial business to specified industries, we have developed a relatively greater number of clients in certain industries, including:

 • computer and internet services

 • financial services

 • biotechnology and pharmaceuticals

 • health care

 • telecommunication

 • entertainment

        These industries are in various states of maturity in their use of data storage technology.

        We have developed specific expertise in certain market segments and can provide solutions that are tailored to the needs of particular business environments. This approach led us to undertake the development and introduction of our integrated solution products, known sometimes generally as “storage appliances.” These products address extraordinary data storage and management requirements not readily addressed by technologies and products available in conventional fashion. Our current development efforts include storage appliances and solutions for geospatial data storage and management, and for rich media data distribution and storage. We expect to continue our efforts to develop efficient, integrated storage solutions for additional market segments as we identify new opportunities.

        We employ a direct sales model, but rely heavily on cooperative selling with our technology partners, all of whom have sales personnel who are tasked to support channel partners such as SANZ. Our technology partners may provide opportunity leads for us to execute directly, or include us as part of a large system solution delivery project that they manage. In our own efforts, we often call upon our technology partners for direct support in the sales process, in the implementation process, or to provide lease financing for large projects.

        We operate from an engineering-centric business model. To support our ability to deliver complex technical solutions, we operate testing laboratories at our offices in Norwalk, Connecticut and Castle Rock, Colorado. These are used to test proposed solutions, and to demonstrate those solutions to prospective clients.

        Significant Customers. In 2001, three customers accounted for 29%, 13%, and 11%, of our total revenue. Two of those customers each accounted for 15% of total revenue in 2000.

SANZ Products and Services

        Our products can be broken into two distinct general categories, Custom Client Solutions and Integrated Product Solutions.

Custom Client Solutions

        We design and deliver custom solutions by working with our clients to understand both their current and projected data storage needs, and the business drivers that affect those needs. A critical element in our typical sales process is that of providing detailed support of the financial justification of a proposed solution using a conventional return on investment analysis and a separate “return on information management” analysis developed by ITIS.

        Our engineering staff designs a “best of breed” system to best meet the client’s business and technology needs, selects and acquires the hardware and software components from our technology suppliers, performs interoperability testing as required, and finally coordinates installation of the system at the client’s facility. We augment our own engineering resources by engaging our vendors’ engineers to perform installations or other tasks on a case-by-case basis. We have developed our product and service offerings specifically to be able to engage a client at any point in the evolution of their storage requirements, and to continue to provide solutions, as the client’s needs change in scope.

Integrated Product Solutions

        As a logical extension of our custom client solutions business and vertical market focus, we have invested in designing integrated solutions to address identified niche market opportunities. As we work with many clients in a particular industry and determine common requirements, our product development staff looks for opportunities to address those common requirements with a standard design or configuration, built upon new or unique combinations or configurations of generally available technologies. For some industries, a relatively simple ’storage appliance” with one or two components can address these requirements. For others, the solution includes a more complex package of products and services. Our current offerings include the EarthWhereTM and SANZstreamTM solutions, described below. During 2001, we discontinued our efforts to develop a related product, SANZGuard, after we reassessed the forecasted development cost versus the potential market interest.

  EarthWhereTM (formerly GEMS) is an engineered storage and data management system designed specifically for the unique data requirements of Geospatial imagery (digital images of the earth’s surface captured by satellite or aerial observation). The EarthWhereTM product family is based on SAN architecture and provides a scalable, low cost and secure infrastructure for electronic image processing. Applications for this product range from defense surveillance to the business community to city planning functions. Customers may purchase enhanced options, such as a disaster recovery and fault tolerant disks or an integrated third party image processing application, as part of the original system, or add these features later.



10


  SANZstreamTM is a centralized storage and content distribution system designed to address the particular needs of handling digital rich media content. Digital media files are large and present particular storage and distribution challenges in either a scheduled or an on-demand environment. Since the market for on-demand video products for entertainment and other products utilizing centralized video distribution is generally are new and largely undeveloped, we expect sales of this product to be slow to develop over the next 24 months, and have adjusted our marketing efforts accordingly.

Our Technology Partners

        SANZ is an independent storage solution provider, not under common ownership with manufacturers of products used in our networked storage solutions. We build and manage our best of breed solutions by integrating product offerings from our technology product suppliers. Current key suppliers include:

 • StorageTek

 • Hitachi Data Systems

 • Sun Microsystems

 • Veritas

 • LSI Logic

 • Brocade

        We believe we have strong relationships with these product suppliers. SANZ holds federal government General Supply Administration schedules for many of these products, which gives us a distinct advantage in working with our government clientele. In some cases, our technology partners engage us for the expertise we bring to a technology team, in particular in heterogeneous technology environments, where individual manufacturers lack the skills necessary to work with all the full range of software and hardware components presenting a sophisticated solution.

Competition

        The rapidly evolving and highly competitive market for data storage is served by many manufacturers, value added resellers, storage solution providers, and storage service providers.

        Major computer system firms all offer storage devices along with their server, workstation and desktop computer systems. To some extent, our products compete with those systems.

        We face more direct competition from manufacturers specializing in storage technology products. These include Dothill, EMC, Exabyte, Hitachi Data Systems, LSI Logic, MTI Technology, nStor, OnStream, Spectralogic, StorageTek, Storcase, Ultera and Veritas. Some product companies address the market with a direct sales model, some employ a channel partner-only strategy, and some use a hybrid strategy that includes both.

        A number of these competitors also are key technology suppliers of SANZ. Those that are not provide competition in our accounts and markets. In some cases, in large legacy accounts of our technology partners, we will face competition directly from those suppliers. A large number of private company value added resellers serve as sales and distribution outlets for the manufacturers listed above, while many of these offer only component sales and distribution. We sometimes compete with these companies at the user client level. At times, we face competition from other resellers offering the same or similar equipment from the same technology partners. In general, these competitors are regional.

        We compete with Companies that characterize themselves as storage solution providers, such as Bell Microsystems, Cranel, Datalink, and Stornet. Some of these, such as Bell Microsystems, are large component resellers who have recently moved into the market for complete solution delivery. Others, such as Datalink, have applied the solution sale model for a longer time.

Employees

        As of April 24, 2002, we employed 61 people, all but one in full-time positions. None of our employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements. We believe that our relations with our employees are good.

Property

        SANZ occupies 6,725 square feet of office and lab space in Castle Rock, Colorado. The lease for the Castle Rock facility expires on May 31, 2004. The monthly rent under this lease is $9,578 plus the costs of utilities, property taxes, insurance, repair and maintenance expenses, and common area utilities.

        We also lease office space for the following regional offices:

  Office Location        Lease Expiration    Monthly Rent   Square Footage
  ---------------        ----------------    ------------   --------------
  Boston, MA               May 30, 2003         $1,526            787
  Colorado Springs, CO     May 31, 2002         $  724          1,250
  Norwalk, CT             June 30, 2002         $5,833          5,000
  Phoenix, AZ            October 15, 2005       $3,148          1,757

        We acquired our Norwalk and Boston offices through the December 2001 acquisition of ITIS. During 2001, we closed our regional offices in Englewood, Colorado, Boulder, Colorado and Austin, Texas. We will continue to pay rent for the Boulder and Austin offices through July 2003, and have accrued the obligation for the life of the lease. The lease for a previously closed ITIS office in Orlando, FL continues until January 2006, and we have accrued the obligation for the time estimated to sublease this office. Unless these three offices are subleased or the lease terminated, we will remain obligated to make lease payments, currently totaling $11,388 per month.

        We believe that our properties, equipment, fixtures and other assets are adequately insured against loss, that suitable alternative facilities are readily available if the lease agreements described above are not renewed, and that our existing facilities are adequate to meet current requirements.

Legal Proceedings

        As described below, we recently concluded two legal matters for which we previously had recorded reserves.

3Si. In May 1999, we filed a lawsuit against 3Si Holdings, Inc. (“3Si”), seeking payment of unpaid invoices in the approximate amount of $2,000,000. 3Si initially agreed to settle the lawsuit and pledged certain shares of 3Si common stock to secure that settlement. 3Si subsequently filed a new lawsuit seeking to set aside the original settlement and, in addition, seeking substantial additional damages against SANZ, our operating subsidiary Storage Area Networks, Inc., the founders of Storage Area Networks, and certain other individuals not associated with SANZ.

        Over time, we determined that our prospects for recovery were declining. The 3Si shares pledged to us as security were decreasing in price, and we continued to write down their value on our books. In December 2001 SANZ, 3Si and most of the other parties to the lawsuit entered into a global settlement agreement, providing for (among other things) mutual releases, without payment, between SANZ and 3Si, SANZ’ forgiveness of the account receivable from 3Si and the associated release of the pledge on the shares of 3Si common stock securing the original settlement, and the surrender to SANZ of a total of approximately 170,000 shares of SANZ common stock by L.W. Buxton and Warren Smith, the founders of Storage Area Networks, Inc.

XS Data. SANZ initiated legal action against XS Data Solutions, Inc. in April 2001 in an attempt to collect a $2,000,000 account receivable generated in 2000. XS Data Solutions was still in start-up mode, had no revenue, had no cash resources, and had not been successful in several attempts to arrange additional financing. During the course of litigation, we determined that XS Data's limited resources made full recovery unlikely. Late in the year, XS Data located a buyer for its business. A condition to the purchase was settlement of our lawsuit. We agreed to settle, and have been paid $50,000 in cash and a $250,000 non interest-bearing note, payable quarterly over three years and secured by the equipment we initially sold to XS Data.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In applying our accounting principles, we must often make individual estimates and assumptions regarding expected outcomes or uncertainties. As you might expect, the actual results or outcomes are generally different than the estimated or assumed amounts. These differences are usually minor and are included in our consolidated financial statements as soon as they are known. Our estimates, judgments, and assumptions are continually evaluated based on available information and experience. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.

We periodically review the carrying value of our goodwill and other intangible assets when events and circumstances warrant such a review. One of the methods used for this review is performed using estimates of future cash flows. If the carrying value of our goodwill or other intangible assets is considered impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the goodwill or other intangible assets exceeds its fair value. We believe that the estimates of future cash flows and fair value are reasonable. Changes in estimates of such cash flows and fair value, however, could affect the calculation. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimates we use to evaluate the realizability of goodwill will be materially different from actual amounts or results.

Based on an assessment of our accounting policies and the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, we believe that our consolidated financial statements provide a meaningful and fair perspective of our company. We do not suggest that other general risk factors, such as those discussed elsewhere in this report, could not adversely impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

General

SANZ’ current business operations commenced in 2000 through the combination of three private companies, CoComp, ValueTech and Storage Area Networks, with a public company, Citadel Environmental Group, Inc. In October 2001, we acquired operating assets of ECOSoftware Systems, Inc., and effective December 31, 2001, we acquired ITIS Services, Inc., a data storage company operating out of Norwalk, CT.

The consolidated financial statements discussed below include the accounts of Storage Area Networks, Inc. for all periods presented, plus subsidiaries from the dates of their acquisition by SANZ. ITIS Services was acquired as of December 31, 2001, and while its assets and liabilities as of that date are included in these financial statements its’ results of operations are not so reflected. All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated.

Results of Operations

Year Ended December 31, 2001 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2000

Sales. SANZ’ sales increased by $2.8 million, or 16%, during the year ended December 31, 2001, from $18.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. The increased sales were primarily in the federal sector, due to heightened demand for data storage, and back-up/restore functionality.

Gross Margin. Gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2001 was 15%, compared to a gross margin of 25% for the year ended December 31,2000. The gross margin for 2000 included a credit related to the settlement of a disputed payable. Excluding this credit, the gross margin would have been 22%. The decrease in margin was caused by a change in the revenue mix from a more balanced mix of commercial and governmental sales in 2000, to a concentration of governmental sales in 2001. During 2002, we anticipate that revenue contribution from federal markets will be reduced on a percentage basis due to increased sales into the commercial markets as economic conditions improve and as we reflect the addition of commercial revenue generated from the ITIS acquisition.

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.2 million during 2001. Selling expenses increased due to increased staffing necessary to support growth of our commercial business and costs associated with the marketing of our new integrated solution products, EarthWhereTM and SANZstreamTM. Engineering costs increased significantly as a result of the development effort associated with those integrated solutions and the need to expand technical resources to support new vendor technologies critical to our growth efforts. During 2000, SANZ recorded $500,000 compensation expense in conjunction with the termination of an executive employment contract. During 2001, no comparable cost was incurred.

During 2000 and 2001, we filed litigation to collect accounts receivable from two customers. In December 2001, we entered into binding settlements of these disputes due to the declining value of these assets and the increasing demands on management’s time. During the year ended December 31, 2001, we recorded an additional charge of $1.4 million to write-off certain receivables and investment securities in connection with these settlements.

Interest Expense. During 2001, interest expense decreased by $43,000. This decrease is primarily due to the reduction in interest associated with the decrease in outstanding debt.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

SANZ’ cash position increased by $5 million during 2001. At December 31, 2001, the Company had $5.3 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $300,000 at December 31, 2000.

For the year ended December 31, 2001, our continuing operating activities generated $1.2 million of cash compared to $5 million of cash used during the prior year. This increase primarily is due to an increase in accounts payable offset by the increase in net loss.

Cash used in investing decreased from $3.3 million in the prior year to $106,000 in the current year. This decrease primarily is the result of acquisitions in the prior year.

Cash provided by financing was $3.9 million in 2001, compared to $5.8 million in 2000, due to decreased proceeds from the sale of equity partially offset by a reduction in debt payments.



15


During May 2001, SANZ finalized a $2.5 million line of credit agreement with Wells Fargo Business Credit, Inc. As of December 31, 2001, we had not drawn any funds against this line of credit. As of April 25, 2002, we had drawn $202,000 against this line of credit for working capital needs. Following year-end, we closed a private offering of units, at $6,800 per unit, that raised $798,456, net of fees. Each unit consisted of 10,000 shares and a five- year warrant to purchase 2,000 shares at $.85 per share. A total of 1,415,700 shares and 431,450 warrants, including those issued as placement agent compensation, were issued in this offering. Current working capital, coupled with this recent private placement and the line of credit, should finance operations for 2002. However, we may need to raise additional funds due to changes in economic conditions and the unpredictable nature of the market. We continue to maintain relationships that could provide sources of equity and/or debt in case such a need should arise.

Capital Expenditures

During the year ended December 31, 2001, we purchased $417,000 of property and equipment for cash. We anticipate a comparable level of spending on capital expenditures during 2002.

Seasonality

Historically, we have not experienced seasonality in our business, although our revenue is subject to fluctuation due to government and commercial purchasing cycles. See “Investment Considerations,” below.

Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements

In 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (SFAS 141), Business Combinations. This standard eliminates the pooling method of accounting for business combination initiated after June 30, 2001. In addition, SFAS 141 addresses the accounting for intangible assets and goodwill acquired in a business combination. This portion of SFAS 141 is effective for business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. The Company does not expect SFAS 141 to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (SFAS 142), Goodwill and Intangible Assets, which clarifies the accounting for impairments to purchased goodwill and intangible assets. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will no longer be amortized, but will be tested for impairment annually and also in the event of an impairment indicator. SFAS 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The adoption of SFAS 142 will decrease annual operating expenses by approximately $300,000. The Company adopted SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002.

In 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (SFAS 144), Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This standard addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company does not expect SFAS 144 to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Sale of Securities by Selling Shareholders

        SANZ shares issued in private, unregistered transactions are being registered so that the holders may sell them publicly from time to time. In accordance with the registration rights granted by SANZ, certain of the selling shareholders have agreed not to make public sales of 4,068,507 of the shares included in this prospectus until dates in the third and fourth quarters of 2002, except under limited exceptions.

        The selling shareholders have advised us that, prior to the date of this prospectus, they have not made any agreements or arrangements with any underwriters, brokers, or dealers regarding the resale of the shares. From time to time the selling shareholders may sell all or a portion of their shares in any public market upon which SANZ shares are quoted (currently the OTC Bulletin Board), in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. Sales may be at fixed prices that may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the market prices or at negotiated prices.

        The shares may be sold by one or more of the following methods, without limitation:

   ° block trades in which a broker or dealer will attempt to sell the shares of common stock as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

   ° purchases by a broker or dealer as principal, and resale by the broker or dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus;

   ° ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

   ° privately negotiated transactions (bot long and short to the extent permitted under the federal securities laws); and

   ° a combination of these methods.

        Any shares covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.

        Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholders or, if any of the broker-dealers act as an agent for the purchaser of such shares, from the purchaser, in amounts to be negotiated, which are not expected to exceed those customary in the types of transactions involved.

        Broker-dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number of shares at a stipulated price per share. This may result in the broker-dealer purchasing as principal any unsold shares at the price required to fulfill its commitment to the selling shareholders if the broker-dealer is unable to sell the shares. Broker-dealers who acquire shares as principal may resell the shares from time to time in transactions which may involve block transactions and sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above. In connection with resales, the broker-dealer may pay to or receive from the purchasers of the shares, commissions as described above.

        Selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with them in the sale of the shares of may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with these sales. In that event, any commissions received by the broker-dealers or agents, and any profit on the resale of the shares, may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.



28


        Selling shareholders have agreed to comply with the Securities Act prospectus delivery requirements by delivering a prospectus to each purchaser of their shares. If we are notified by the selling shareholders that they have entered into a material arrangement with an underwriter for the sale of shares, a supplemental prospectus will be filed to disclose such of the following information as we believe appropriate:

   ° the name of the participating underwriter;

   ° the number of shares;

   ° the price at which the shares are sold;

   ° the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to the underwriter; and

   ° other facts material to the transaction.

        SANZ and the selling shareholders will be subject to provisions of the Exchange Act, including the antifraud provisions of Rule 10b-5. Also, insofar as SANZ or the selling shareholders are considered to be participating in a distribution, under certain circumstances they will be subject to trading restrictions under Regulation M.

        We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling shareholders. We will pay all expenses related to preparation of this prospectus. The selling shareholders, the purchasers of the shares, or both will pay any commissions, discounts, or other fees payable to brokers or dealers.

        We cannot predict the effect which sales of the shares by the selling shareholders might have upon the market price of SANZ’ common stock or upon our ability to raise further capital. See “Risk Factors - Possible Effect on Market Price Due to Public Sales of Shares Acquired at Prices Below Current Market Price.”

Sale of Securities by SANZ

        Certain selling shareholders hold warrants issued by us at various prior dates entitling them to purchase specified numbers of SANZ shares at specified prices. No underwriter or placement agent has been engaged to assist us in selling the SANZ shares issuable upon exercise of those options, and we will not pay commissions or similar compensation to any party in connection with that issuance. If selling shareholders exercise warrants, they can be expected to sell those shares as described above. Many of the outstanding warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis, with the exercise price paid with a portion of the SANZ shares underlying the warrant, reducing the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrant. We do not receive cash for the exercise price, but issue fewer shares, while the warrant holder obtains the same economic value. The selling shareholders will receive the proceeds of any subsequent sale of the warrant shares. There is no assurance that any warrants will be exercised.

        Colorado law permits a corporation to indemnify directors, officers, employees, or agents against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and reasonable costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees paid or incurred in connection with any proceeding, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, to which the director, officer, employee or agent may be a party, provided he shall have acted in good faith and shall have reasonably believed:

(a) in the case of a civil proceeding, that his conduct was in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, or

(b) in the case of a criminal proceeding, that he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

        In connection with an action by a corporation, or to enforce a right of a corporation, against a director, officer, employee or agent, the corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the suit:

(a) if the person acted in good faith and in a manner in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and

(b) if the person is found liable to the corporation, only if ordered by a court of law.

        A corporation may grant additional rights to indemnification to its director, officers, employees or agents.

        Our Articles of Incorporation provide for mandatory indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by, and in accordance with, Colorado law, and permit indemnification of other persons to the extent authorized from time to time by the board of directors. The right to indemnification includes the right to have SANZ pay in advance the expenses incurred in defending these proceedings, so long as there is an agreement to repay these expenses if it is ultimately determined that the person is not entitled to be indemnified for them.

        Colorado law permits SANZ to purchase and maintain insurance policies that protect any director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent against any liability asserted against or incurred by them in such capacity arising out of his status as such. These policies may provide for indemnification whether or not SANZ otherwise would be able to provide it. SANZ has officers and directors liability insurance, which provides coverage for (among other things) certain claims arising under the Securities Act.

        To the extent indemnification for Securities Act liabilities is available to our directors, officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for Securities Act liabilities is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Authorized Capital

        SANZ is authorized to issue 75,000,000 shares of no par value common stock and 10,000,000 shares of no par value Preferred Stock. No shares of Preferred Stock are issued or outstanding as of the date of this prospectus. No holder of any shares of common stock has any preemptive right to subscribe for any of our securities. Upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up of SANZ, the assets will be divided pro rata on a share-for-share basis among holders of all outstanding shares of common stock.

        No Cumulative Voting. Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote per share with respect to all matters that are required by law to be submitted to shareholder vote. Shareholders are not entitled to cumulative voting in the election of directors. Accordingly, the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the election of directors can elect 100% of the directors if they choose to do so, and the holders of the remaining shares voting for the election of the directors will be unable to elect any directors.

Shares Registered for Sale.

June 2001 Private Placement. On June 30, 2001, we closed a private offering of 220 Units of equity securities for aggregate cash proceeds of $5,544,000. The Units were offered and sold to accredited U.S. investors and to offshore investors at a price of $25,200 per Unit. Each Unit consisted of 40,000 shares of Common Stock and two warrants (Class A and Class B) exercisable for a four-year and a two-year period, respectively, commencing April 30, 2002. The Class A Warrants are exercisable at $1.25 per share and the Class B Warrants are exercisable at $0.625 per share.

        The Units were offered in the U.S. through Bathgate McColley Capital Group LLC (BMCG) and outside the U.S. through Falcon Capital (the “Placement Agents”).

Thee shares were issued in accordance with an exemption from registration afforded by Regulation D of the Securities Act. As a condition to the ITIS acquisition, holders of approximately 4,068,507 shares issued in the acquisition agreed not to sell those shares until various dates in the third and fourth quarters of 2002, except under limited exceptions, even if this prospectus is available before those dates.

A total of 1,415,700shares and 431,450 warrants, including those issued as placement agent compensation, were issued in this offering.

SAN Holdings, Inc.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2001 and 2000

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  SAN Holdings, Inc. (the Company), a Colorado corporation, was formed on July 1, 1983. The Company operates a single business segment, which sells and installs computer data storage devices throughout the United States.

  A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows:

               Principles of Consolidation

  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

               Cash equivalents

  For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

               Inventory

  Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined principally by the first-in, first-out method.

               Property and equipment

  Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of five to seven years or for leasehold improvements, the lesser of the life of the lease improvements.

               Intangible assets

  Purchased software and licenses are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization. Amortization is provided using the straight-line method over fifty months, the period estimated by management to be benefited. Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible net assets acquired in business combinations accounted for as purchases. Goodwill is being amortized on the straight-line method over 5 to 15 years.

               Impairment of long-lived assets

  The Company evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets, including goodwill, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the asset’s fair market value.

December 31, 2001 and 2000

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

               Financial Instruments

  The fair values of the Company’s financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investments and long-term debt approximate their carrying values.

               Revenue Recognition

  The Company’s revenue is derived primarily from two sources: (i) resale and installation of computer hardware and software, and (ii) service revenue, derived primarily from providing consulting services to end users.

  Revenue from resale and installation of computer hardware and software is recognized upon completion of delivery and service obligations, provided that no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance exist. Service revenue is recognized as the related services are performed.

               Use of estimates

  In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  The Company evaluates the realizibility of goodwill based on management’s best estimates of future cash flows from operations. However, the Company participates in a highly competitive industry that is characterized by aggressive pricing practices, and price sensitivity and changing demands of customers. As a result, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used by the Company to evaluate the realizibility of goodwill will be materially different from actual amounts or results.

  These differences could result in the impairment of all or a portion of the Company’s goodwill, which could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

               Stock-Based Compensation

  The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees using the intrinsic value method. Accordingly, compensation cost for employee stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant over the exercise prices.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

December 31, 2001 and 2000

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

               Earnings (Loss) Per Share

  The Company computes basic earnings (loss) per share based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued. For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, all potential common shares were anti-dilutive.

               Recent Account Pronouncements

  In 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (SFAS 141), Business Combinations. This standard eliminates the pooling method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. In addition, SFAS 141 addressed the accounting for intangible assets and goodwill acquired in a business combination. This portion of SFAS 141 is effective for business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. The Company does not expect SFAS 141 to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

  In 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (SFAS 142), Goodwill and Intangible Assets, which clarifies the accounting for impairments to purchased goodwill and intangible assets. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinitive lives will no longer be amortized, but will be tested for impairment annually and also in the event of an impairment indicator. SFAS 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company expects that the adoption of SFAS 142 will decrease annual operating expenses by approximately $300,000. The Company adopted SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002.

  In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board approved for issuance Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (SFAS 144), Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This standard addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company does not expect SFAS 144 to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or result of operations.

               Reclassifications

  Certain reclassifications were made to the 2000 financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE B-– RECAPITALIZATION

  In January 2000, Citadel Environmental Group, Inc. (the Registrant) acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Storage Area Networks, Inc. (SAN). The Registrant changed its name to SAN Holdings, Inc. The acquisition resulted in approximately 79% of the outstanding common stock of the Registrant being owned by the former SAN shareholders.

Report of Independent Accountants

To the Management Committee of
ITIS Services LLC

In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheet and the related statements of operations, of changes in members’ equity and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ITIS Services LLC (the “Company”) at December 31, 2000, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has a limited operating history and has incurred a loss from operations since its inception. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

ITIS Services LLC
Notes to Financial Statements

___________________________________________________________________________________________________

1.         Business and Organization

  Formation of the Business
ITIS Services LLC. (the “Company”) was formed as a limited liability company under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “Act”) on November 15, 1999. As of January 1, 2000, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of ITIS Inc., and commenced operations on that date. The Company principally operates as a reseller of computer software and hardware and a provider of related services.

  The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has a limited operating history and has incurred losses from operations since its inception. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regard to these matters include expanding its market share as well as seeking additional financing arrangements. As discussed in Note 8, the Company also undertook a restructuring in June 2001 in order to reduce operating expenses. Although, management continues to pursue these plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining sufficient fees for its services or financing on terms acceptable to the Company. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

  Limited Liability Company Agreement
The Company has been organized as a limited liability company. The owners of an interest in a limited liability company are called “members” and are not individually liable for the obligations and liabilities of the entity.

  Pursuant to the Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement (the “Agreement”), the members of the Company have approved a management committee. The Agreement also contains certain restrictions with regard to the disposition/transfer of individual membership interests.

2.         Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

  Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original or remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.



F-30


  Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers
Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable. To minimize risk, ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition are performed, although collateral generally is not required. At December 31, 2000, three customers accounted for 52.8%, 20.2% and 18.6% of gross accounts receivable.

  Inventories
The inventory balance primarily reflects goods that have shipped, but, have not been received by the customer as of year end. It is not the company’s business practice to stock inventory.

  Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Upon retirement or sale, the cost of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to income. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

  Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue is derived from primarily two sources: (i) resale and installation of computer hardware and software and (ii) service revenue, derived primarily from providing consulting services to end users.

  Revenue is recognized upon execution of a contract and completion of delivery and service obligations, provided that no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance exist and collection of the related receivable is probable.

  Income Taxes
The Company, as an LLC, is taxed as a partnership for federal and state tax purposes. There are no entity level income taxes imposed by jurisdictions in which the Company conducts its business and, therefore, these financial statements do not reflect any federal or state income tax expense. The profit or loss is deemed passed through to the members of the LLC and they are obligated to report such profit or loss on their own tax returns in the relevant jurisdictions.

  Equity Compensation
The Company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related interpretations in accounting for equity awards.

  Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are short term in nature, and accordingly, their carrying value approximates fair value.

                                                             ==========

  Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2000 was $51,954.

4.         Commitments and Contingencies

  The Company leases its office space and certain office equipment under noncancelable operating leases. Total rent expense under these operating leases was approximately $131,535 for the year ended December 31, 2000.

  Future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases at December 31, 2000 are as follows:

               Years ending December 31:
               2001                                         $ 226,559

                                                            =========
  The Company may be party to litigation and claims arising in the normal course of business. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, believes that there is not any substantive litigation and claims against the Company. However, in the event such litigation or claims arise, it could result in a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

5.         Classes or Series of Equity

  The issued and outstanding equity of the Company, in the form of Units, consists of one series of Preferred Units and two classes of Common Units (Class A Common Units and Class B Common Units).



F-32


  The Preferred Units possesses certain rights, powers and preferences senior to those of the Common Units. At December 31, 2000, there were 12,058,842 Preferred Units issued and outstanding. In general, upon any sale or other liquidation of the Company, the holders of the Preferred Units are entitled to preferential distributions equal to the amount of the original investment of such holders, as adjusted for prior distributions. Once the holders of the Preferred Units receive such preferential distribution, the holders of the Common Units are entitled to receive a like amount per Unit. After both the Preferred Units and the Common Units have received such distribution, the Preferred Units and the Common Units share in further distributions on a pari passu basis. In general, the holders of the Preferred Units also have the right to elect two members of the Company’s Board of Managers (referred to as “Series A Managers”), and the approval of the Series A Managers and/or the holders of the Preferred Units is required in order to approve certain actions by the Company. Excepting only the foregoing preferential voting rights, the holders of the Preferred Units vote on an as-converted basis with the holders of the Common Units. The Preferred Units are convertible into Class A Common Units at any time at a specified conversion price and are mandatorily convertible upon a public offering of the Company’s equity securities meeting certain criteria.

  The Class B Common Units (which are held by one individual, the current President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company) are entitled to certain liquidation preferences over the Class A Common Units. Upon a sale or other liquidation of the Company, and following the prior distribution of $10,000,000, to the holders of the Class A Common Units (representing the aggregate capital accounts of the holders of the Class A Common Units at the time the Class B Common Units were issued), the holder of the Class B Common Units is entitled to the distribution of the next $1,500,000. Following the distribution of such $1,500,000 to the holder of the Class B Units, the Class A Common Units and the Class B Units are entitled to share in subsequent distributions on a pari passu basis. Excepting only the foregoing preferential distributions, the Class B Common Units are identical to the Class A Common Units in all respects. The Class B Common Units were granted under a Restricted Unit Agreement (see Note 6). At December 31, 2000, there were 42,435,084 and 6,223,056 Class A Units and Class B Units, respectively, issued and outstanding; these amounts include units issued under Restricted Unit Agreements (see Note 6) which are considered issued and outstanding on grant date.

6.         Restricted Units Awards

  Under the Company'’s Restricted Units Award Plan, officers and employees may receive grants of restricted units which provide the recipient with the right to vote all units subject to grant, and receive all distributions with respect to such units, whether or not vested. The unrealized gain reflected in the value of the Company as of the grant date is allocated, as of immediately prior to the issuance of the units, to the capital accounts or the then-existing members of the Company; accordingly, the restricted units entitle the grantee to participate solely in gains of the Company realized after the grant date. Grants are made at the discretion of the Board of Managers and generally vest over four years.

  The Company applied Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) and its related interpretation, FIN 28, Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Option or Award Plans in accounting for the Restricted Unit Awards. Since the grantee only participates in realized gains of the Company, there was no compensation expense recorded for the year ended December 31, 2000. Future expense will be recorded when it is probable that the Company will have a realized gain and be measured as the amount of the realized gain to be distributed to grantee.

7.         Related Parties

  Raging Knowledge, Inc. (“Raging Knowledge”), a software development company, is considered to be an affiliated entity because major shareholders of Raging Knowledge are also major shareholders of the Company. During a portion of 2000 the Company subleased a portion of its premises to Raging Knowledge. Rent received from Raging Knowledge (or paid by Raging Knowledge directly to the Company’s landlord) is reflected as an offset to rent expense.

  Effective November 30, 2000, the Company licensed from Raging Knowledge a customized version of Raging Knowledge’s proprietary software product under a three-year license and software maintenance agreement. The Company recorded software expense of $1,104 at December 31, 2000 related to this agreement.

8.         Subsequent Event

  In June 2001, the Company undertook a restructuring in which it closed its Florida and Michigan operations and reduced its total number of employees by approximately 20%. The restructuring was undertaken to reduce costs and to refocus the company’s operations on the northeast markets, exiting the Florida and Michigan markets in which it has achieved very limited sales. Sales by the Florida and Michigan offices totaled less than 10% of the Company’s total sales during the first six months of 2001.

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 24.      Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

        Colorado law permits a corporation to indemnify directors, officers, employees, or agents against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and reasonable costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees paid or incurred in connection with any proceeding, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, to which the director, officer, employee or agent may be a party, provided he shall have acted in good faith and shall have reasonably believed:

(a)  in the case of a civil proceeding, that his conduct was in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, or

(b)  in the case of a criminal proceeding, that he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

        In connection with an action by a corporation, or to enforce a right of a corporation, against a director, officer, employee or agent, the corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the suit:

(a)  if the person acted in good faith and in a manner in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and

(b)  if the person is found liable to the corporation, only if ordered by a court of law.

A corporation may grant additional rights to indemnification to its director, officers, employees, or agents.

Our Articles of Incorporation provide for mandatory indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by, and in accordance with, Colorado law, and permit indemnification of other persons to the extent authorized from time to time by the board of directors. The right to indemnification includes the right to have SANZ pay in advance the expenses incurred in defending these proceedings, so long as there is an agreement to repay these expenses if it is ultimately determined that the person is not entitled to be indemnified for them.

Colorado law permits SANZ to purchase and maintain insurance policies that protect any director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent against any liability asserted against or incurred by them in such capacity arising out of his status as such. These policies may provide for indemnification whether or not SANZ otherwise would be able to provide it. SANZ has officers and directors liability insurance which provides coverage for certain liabilities which may be claimed to arise under the Securities Act.

Insofar as indemnification for Securities Act liabilities may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for Securities Act liabilities 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 of the expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, (suit or proceeding) is asserted by the 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 its is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

                                                   =======

        All amounts listed above, except for the registration fee, are estimates. The small business issuer will pay all expenses itemized above. Sales agent discounts and commissions to any brokers or dealers will be borne by the selling shareholders for the shares offered by the selling shareholders.

Item 26. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities. During the three years preceding the initial filing of this registration statement, the Small business issuer sold securities that were not registered under the Act in the transactions described below. In each instance, SANZ relied on Section 4(2), Regulation D or Regulation S under the Act for the exemption from the registration requirements, the following circumstances apply: Each sale was effected with a limited number of persons in a private transaction not involving a public offering. Each investor was able to fend for himself in the transaction, each investor was furnished with information concerning SANZ, and each had the opportunity to verify the information supplied. Additionally, SANZ obtained a signed representation from each investor as to his or her intent to acquire the common stock of SANZ for the purpose of investment only and not with a view toward the subsequent distribution thereof; each of the certificates representing the common stock issued to the foregoing persons has been embossed with a legend restricting transfer of the common stock represented thereby; and SANZ has issued stop transfer instructions to its Transfer Agent concerning the certificates representing all of the shares issued pursuant as described below.

  A.  In 1999, we issued 290,719 shares, valued at $237,000, in conjunction with the settlement of indebtedness to shareholders that was in default.

    The offering was made in accordance with exemptions from registration provided by Section 4(2) and Regulation S under the Securities Act, in reliance on the following circumstances: Outside the U.S., all offers and sales were made in “offshore transactions” as defined in Regulation S and no directed selling efforts were made in the U.S. In the U.S., the offering was directed to a limited number of persons in a private transaction not involving a public offering. All U.S. investors represented, and the Company reasonably believed, that they were accredited investors who were able to fend for themselves in the transaction. Each investor was furnished with information concerning the Company and each had the opportunity to verify the information supplied. The Company obtained a signed representation from each investor as to his or her intent to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view toward the subsequent distribution thereof. Additionally, all of the certificates issued in the offshore and in the U.S. offerings bear “restricted” legends, and the Company has issued “stop transfer” instructions to its Transfer Agent
