PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
Globus Wireless, Ltd.
Our Business
Our business is comprised of two distinct divisions, specific absorption
rate compliance and engineered solutions laboratory operated by our wholly-owned
subsidiary Celltech Research Inc., and a wireless products distribution
division.
Specific Absorption Rate Compliance and Engineered solutions laboratory
Celltech Research Inc, a wireless compliance testing laboratory serves over
35 wireless equipment manufactures who regularly bring their new products to us
for emissions testing and license submission. We help wireless equipment
manufacturers satisfy their applicable government regulations, as well as
carrier client and consumer client performance requirements. Celltech also
serves as a testing agency and filing center for wireless equipment manufactures
and their requirement to satisfy Federal Communication Commission and Industry
Canada regulations for wireless communication devices.
Through proprietary and trade secret processes, we provide solutions
to wireless equipment manufactures, to assist in their products achieving lower
specific absorption rate measures and enhanced performance, in compliance with
regulatory guidelines, for such wireless communications products such as
wireless phones, laptops, personal digital assistants, family service radios,
marine and two-way radios. Specific absorption rate is the measurement of heat
generated in human tissue by radio frequency radiation from wireless
transmitting devices, such as cellular phones, wireless modems, cordless
telephones, etc. Performance objectives include increased range, clarity,
battery life, fewer failed attempts, and dropped calls.
In addition we design, and engineer, wireless devices components, products
and technologies, delivering products that are relevant to market needs that
address the health and safety issues for all wireless devices.
Wireless Product Distribution
Our product distribution includes but is not limited to a variety of
wireless equipment manufacturers' and after-market handsets and accessories, as
well as Globus branded proprietary wireless products. We have in the past year
grown and expanded our product distribution capabilities with the acquisitions
of Edge Continental Inc., now Globus Wireless Canada Ltd, and PCI Marketing &
Communications Inc, d/b/a. ShopWireless.Com, now Globus On-Line Inc., both
Canadian subsidiary corporations and both distributing lower margin
commodity-type wireless product. While we will continue to sell an array of
wireless equipment, manufacturers cellular handsets, and accessory product, we
are strategically moving towards a greater emphasis on distribution of Globus
proprietary product, specifically targeting higher margin, value-added, and
differentiated sales opportunities.
Our Operations
We have experienced negative cash flow since 1994. We have incurred a net
loss in each year of our existence and expect to incur a net loss at least
through 2001. We incurred losses of $737,836 in 1998, $868,596 in 1999 and
$1,205,163 in 2000. We incurred a loss of $1,539,202 for the nine months ended
July 31, 2001. We may never make a profit. These losses are due in part to
5
expenses associated with sales and marketing, overhead, market development. As a
result, our accumulated deficit has increased from $2,762,719 at October 31,
1997 to $7,447,786 at July 31, 2001. We cannot project with certainty that
losses will not continue in the short term as we grow and integrate our
businesses, and that losses will not continue in the long term should we be
unsuccessful in our business and integration efforts.
Our Strategy
o To become a profitable design and development company of relevant,
proprietary, patented wireless technologies that increase user safety
and/or performance;
o To sell worldwide, renowned quality, high performance wireless
products with Globus branded proprietary technology.
Our Offices
We maintain executive offices at our research center, located at 1955 Moss
Court, Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada V1Y 9L3 and our telephone number is
(250) 860-3130. We operate marketing, sales and distribution centers in Markham,
Ontario, Canada; Los Angeles, California, USA; and Seoul, Korea.
6
RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the following factors as well as other
information contained in this prospectus before deciding to invest in shares of
our securities.
Risk Factors Relating To Our Business
We Expect to Incur Losses for the Foreseeable Future and Continued Losses Could
Result in our Inability to Fund Business Operations and Cause our Stock Price to
Decline.
We have incurred a net loss in each year of our existence and expect to
incur a net loss at least through 2001. We incurred losses of $868,596 in 1999
and $1,205,613 in 2000. We incurred a loss of $1,539,202 for the nine months
ended July 31, 2001. We may never make a profit. These losses are due in part to
expenses associated with sales and marketing, overhead, market development. As a
result, our accumulated deficit has increased from $4,344,891 at October 31,
1999 to $7,447,786 at July 31, 2001. If we continue to incur losses, we may not
be able to fund continuing business operations, which could lead to the
limitation or closure of some or all of our operations.
Funding For Our Capital Needs Is Not Assured, And We May Have To Curtail Our
Business If We Cannot Find Adequate Funding.
Although we are exploring the possibilities of additional financing with
the Laurus Master Fund, Ltd., we currently have no legally binding commitments
with any third parties to obtain any material amount of additional equity or
debt financing. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain any
additional financing in the amounts or at the times that we may require the
financing or, if we do obtain any financing, that it would be on acceptable
terms. As a result, we cannot assure you that we will have adequate capital to
implement future expansions and enhancements of our wireless technology, to
maintain our current levels of operation or to pursue strategic acquisitions.
Our failure to obtain sufficient additional financing could result in the delay
or abandonment of some or all of our development, expansion and expenditures,
which could have an adverse effect on us and on the value of our common stock.
The Loss Of Any Of Our Significant Customers Would Likely Have A Material
Adverse Effect On Our Revenues.
There is a limited number of wireless equipment manufacturers globally that
could benefit with our proprietary specific absorption rate solution process,
and a limited number of other wireless equipment manufacturers that may benefit.
Additionally, until such time as we undertake an expansion of research
facilities at Celltech, there is a finite number of wireless equipment
manufacturer clients and products that can be processed in a given time. For
product distribution sales as of October 31, 2000, our dealer customer base was
approximately 900 clients, of which only 50% are considered regular clients, and
of which 40 accounted for approximately 65% of total accounts receivable. As we
continue to increase our customer base, we believe we will be less likely to be
dependent on a limited number of significant customers. We cannot assure you
that we will be less dependent on a limited number of significant customers in
the future, and the loss of any such significant customer, especially in the
initial integration period and until expanded facilities for Celltech are
completed, would likely have a material adverse effect on our revenues.
Our Recent Acquisitions Of Edge Continental And PCI Marketing & Communications
Inc. May Lower Our Earnings.
We recently acquired Edge Continental Inc and PCI Marketing &
Communications Inc. Edge Continental is an international distributor of OEM
wireless phones and accessories, leading edge aftermarket products, proprietary
design handset accessories, and provides clearinghouse services for OEM and
7
carrier overstocked product, for all wireless platforms. PCI Marketing, d/b/a
Shop Wireless.Com is an online e-tail company specializing in wireless products.
If we are unable to effectively integrate these businesses into our existing
business, and retain key employee expertise in our organization, it may lower
our earnings or revenue growth.
We Will Face Challenges To Our Business If Our Target Market Adopts Alternate
Standards For Wireless Transmission.
Wireless technology is extremely complex, and products must adhere to a
continually changing set of standards and compliance requirements. Currently,
our solutions based technology is designed to assist wireless equipment
manufactures in satisfying FCC and IC regulations. Our digital signal processing
proprietary hands-free in-vehicle speakerphone is designed to address mounting
safety concerns over cellular phone use while driving. However, regulatory
guidelines for radio frequency emitting wireless products, and for driver
safety, are established by governments and industry standards organizations over
which we have no direct influence. We have invested substantial amounts of
engineering resources into developing a solutions based technology and trade
secret processes that assist wireless equipment manufacturers in achieving
compliance to these standards. We are also investing significant sums into
specific absorption rate - related product initiatives. Furthermore, we have and
will invest considerable funds to bring our proprietary hands-free in-vehicle
speakerphone to market. If we fail to introduce systems that meet new and
evolving regulations and standards, our business would be significantly harmed.
A Majority Of Service Providers That Use Wireless Technologies Are Emerging
Companies With Unproven Business Models.
Many of our distribution customers for our products are service providers
that are using wireless technologies to attract and retain new end-user
customers. Many of the wireless equipment manufacturers providing product to the
service providers, and those utilizing our solutions expertise, are emerging
companies with a limited degree of success in the wireless industry. The
wireless market is intensely competitive, and wireless equipment manufacturer
market has become increasingly competitive at all levels in recent years,
primarily as a result of increased competition among the service providers that
are typically forced to reduce the monthly access charges they impose upon their
subscribers in order to attract and retain additional subscribers. The reduction
in monthly access charges reduces the amount of capital available for service
providers to invest in their purchasing of new handset models. Both service
providers and wireless equipment manufacturers may therefore become
under-capitalized and may not be able to remain in business for a substantial
period of time. The failure or loss of both the wireless equipment manufacturers
and the service providers as customers would significantly harm our business.
Additionally, a number of suppliers for our distribution business are smaller
and new organizations that may be under capitalized and therefore unable to meet
our long term supply needs. In our distribution supply businesses, there are
significant numbers of dealer organizations that are relatively small,
especially in the US markets where wireless distribution markets tend to be more
fragmented, and these organizations may also be under-capitalize. Both the
specific absorption rate solutions business and distribution business rely
heavily on successful sales and marketing to or supply from foreign firms, and
most of the firms are emerging companies, with unproven business models.
8
Risks Related To Our Current Financing Agreements
There Are A Large Number Of Shares Underlying Our Series A Preferred Stock,
Convertible Note, And Warrants That May Be Available For Future Sale And The
Sale Of These Shares May Depress The Market Price Of Our Common Stock.
As of August 27, 2001, we had:
o 14,502,452 shares of common stock issued and outstanding
o an aggregate of 11,748,570 shares of common stock issuable upon
conversion and exercise of the following securities:
o 1,500 series A preferred shares that may be converted into
5,000,000 shares of common stock, based on current market prices;
o an aggregate of $1,750,000 principal 8% convertible notes that
may be converted into 5,883,334, based on current market prices;
o 415,236 warrants to purchase 415,236 shares of common stock at an
exercise price of $1.9862; and
o 500,000 warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock
at an exercise price of $1.15
The amount of securities issuable upon outstanding convertible notes,
preferred shares and warrants represents 40% of our total outstanding common
shares and that due to the floating conversion rates, we do not know the exact
number of shares we will issue upon conversion. The number of shares of common
stock issuable upon conversion of the outstanding convertible note and series A
preferred stock will increase if the market price of our stock declines. All of
the shares, including all of the shares issuable upon conversion of the note and
series A preferred stock, and upon exercise of our warrants, may be sold without
restriction. The sale of these shares may depress the market price of our common
stock.
9
The Continuously Adjustable Conversion Price Feature Of Our Series A Preferred
Stock and Convertible Notes Could Require Us To Issue A Substantially Greater
Number Of Shares Which Will Cause Dilution To Our Existing Stockholders.
Our obligation to issue shares upon conversion of our convertible
securities is essentially limitless.
The following is an example of the amount shares of our common stock that
is issuable, upon conversion of our series A preferred shares and convertible
notes, based on market prices 25%, 50% and 75% below the market price, as of
September 21, of $0.30.
Discount Number of Percentage of
% Below Market Price Per Share of 20% Shares Issuable Outstanding Stock
-------------- --------------- -------- --------------- -----------------
25% $.225 $.18 15,277,778 51%
50% $.15 $.12 22,916,667 61%
75% $.075 $.06 45,833,334 76%
As illustrated, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of
the outstanding series A preferred shares and convertible notes will increase if
the market price of our stock declines, which will cause dilution to our
existing stockholders.
The Issuance Of Shares Upon Conversion Of Our Series A Preferred Stock and
Convertible Notes, And Exercise Of Outstanding Warrants May Cause Immediate And
Substantial Dilution To Our Existing Stockholders.
The issuance of shares upon conversion of the series A preferred stock and
convertible notes, and exercise of warrants may result in substantial dilution
to the interests of other stockholders since the selling stockholder may
ultimately convert and sell the full amount. Although the preferred stockholders
and note holders may not convert their securities and/or exercise their warrants
into more than 9.99% and 4.99%, respectively, of our outstanding common stock,
this restriction does not prevent the investors from converting and/or
exercising some of their holdings and then converting the rest of their
holdings. In this way, the investor could sell more than this limit while never
holding more than this limit. In addition, preferred stockholders may waive the
9.99% limitation upon 60 days notice and the note holders may waive the 4.99%
limitation upon an event of default. If this limit is waived there is no upper
limit on the number of shares that may be issued which will have the effect of
further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders
of our common stock and may result in a change of control of Globus Wireless,
Ltd.
The Continuously Adjustable Conversion Price Feature Of Our Series A Preferred
Stock and Convertible Notes May Encourage The Investors To Make Short Sales Of
Our Common Stock, Which Could Have A Depressive Effect On The Price Of Our
Common Stock.
The series A preferred stock and convertible notes are convertible into
shares of our common stock at a 20% discount to the trading price of the common
stock either prior to the issuance of the notes or prior to the conversion,
whichever is lower. The significant downward pressure on the price of the common
stock as the selling stockholder converts and sells material amounts of common
stock could encourage short sales by the selling stockholder or others. This
could place further downward pressure on the price of the common stock. The
selling stockholder could sell common stock into the market in anticipation of
covering the short sale by converting their securities, which could cause the
further downward pressure on the stock price.
10
The Interest and/or Dividends Payable On Our Convertible Notes and Series A
Preferred Stock Is Also Convertible Into Shares Of Our Common Stock.
The interest payable on the convertible notes and series A preferred stock
is also convertible into shares of our common stock. The convertible note bears
simple interest accruing at an annual rate of 8%. $58,406 in interest has
accrued to date. The preferred shares are entitled to a 12% annual cumulative
dividend payable quarterly. $125,515 in dividends have accrued to date. In this
regard, the lower the price of our common stock, the more shares of common stock
the holder of the convertible note will receive in payment of interest.
11
If we are required for any reason to repay the outstanding convertible notes in
the aggregate of $1,500,000 we would be required to deplete our working capital,
if available, or raise additional funds. Our failure to repay the convertible
notes, if required, could result in legal action against us which could require
the sale of substantial assets.
To date, we have outstanding an aggregate of $1,500,000 principal amount 8%
convertible notes. The convertible notes are due and payable, with 8% interest,
in May 2003, June 2003, and July 2003 unless sooner converted into shares of our
common stock. In addition, any event of default as described in the convertible
notes could require the early repayment of the convertible notes, including a
premium of 30% of the outstanding principal balance of the note at the time of
the default. We anticipate that the full amount of the convertible notes,
together with accrued interest, will be converted into shares of our common
stock, in accordance with the terms of the convertible notes. If we are required
to repay the convertible notes, we would be required to use our limited working
capital and raise additional funds. If we were unable to repay the notes when
required, the note holders could commence legal action against us to recover the
amounts due which ultimately could require the disposition of some or all of our
assets. Any such action would require us to curtail or cease operations.
Risks Related To This Offering and Our Common Stock
Our Common Stock is Subject to the "Penny Stock" Rules of the SEC and the
Trading Market in our Securities is Limited, Which Makes Transactions in our
Stock Cumbersome and May Reduce the Value of an Investment in our Stock.
Since our common stock is not listed or quoted on any exchange or on
Nasdaq, and no other exemptions currently apply, trading in our common stock on
the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board is subject to the "penny stock" rules of the
SEC. These rules require, among other things, that any broker engaging in a
transaction in our securities provide its customers with a risk disclosure
document, disclosure of market quotations, if any, disclosure of the
compensation of the broker and its salespersons in the transaction, and monthly
account statements showing the market values of our securities held in the
customer's accounts. The brokers must provide bid and offer quotations and
compensation information before making any purchase or sale of a penny stock and
also provide this information in the customer's confirmation. Generally, brokers
may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny
stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our
common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
Our Commitments To Issue Additional Common Stock May Adversely Affect The Market
Price Of Our Common Stock And May Impair Our Ability To Raise Capital.
We currently have outstanding commitments in various forms such as
warrants, options, and convertible securities to issue a substantial number of
new shares of our common stock. The shares subject to these issuance
commitments, to some degree, will be issued in transactions registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and thus will be freely tradable. In many
other instances, these shares are subject to grants of registration rights that,
if and when exercised, would result in those shares becoming freely tradable. An
increase in the number of shares of our common stock that will become available
for sale in the public market may adversely affect the market price of our
common stock and, as a result, could impair our ability to raise additional
capital through the sale of our equity securities or convertible securities.

RECENT FINANCINGS
December 2000 and January 2001 Financing
----------------------------------------
In this prospectus, we are registering 15,000,000 shares of common stock
underlying $1,500,000 series A convertible preferred stock issued to accredited
investors pursuant to a subscription agreements dated in December 2000 and
January 2001. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of
the outstanding series A convertible preferred stock is 5,000,000 assuming a
conversion price of $0.30 per share. We are required to register 300% of this
amount, for a total of 15,000,000 shares. In addition, 415,236 shares underlying
warrants are being registered in connection with these financings. These
warrants have an exercise price of $1.9862 per share.
The Series A convertible preferred shares are entitled to a liquidation
preference amount of $1,000 per share and a 12% annual cumulative dividend,
calculated on the liquidation preference amount, payable quarterly and are
convertible into our common stock after April 28, 2001 determined by the
following formula:
$1,500,000 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends divided by the lessor of:
a) $1.8062; or
b) b) 80% of the average of the three lowest bid prices of our common
stock for the twenty days immediately prior to the conversion.
The Series A convertible preferred shares are convertible until December
29, 2003 at which time any shares not converted shall automatically convert to
common shares at a price determined by the above formula.
The common share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $1.9862 per
common share and expire on January 2, 2006. To date the purchase warrants remain
unexercised.
May and June 2001 Financing
---------------------------
We are also registering 12,5000,000 shares of common stock underlying
$800,000 and $450,000 of 8% convertible debentures, due May 31, 2003 and June 6,
2003, respectively. The convertible debentures were issued to four investors
pursuant to a Subscription Agreement dated May 31, 2001. Interest only payments
are due quarterly commencing September 30, 2001, and the principal is due in one
lump sum on the due dates, or upon events of default.
The conversion price for the convertible debentures is the lesser of 85% of
the average of the three lowest closing prices for the common stock for the 30
trading days prior to but not including the day of closing, or 85% percent of
the average of the three lowest closing prices for the common stock for the 30
trading days prior to but not including the conversion date. The maximum number
of shares of common stock that any subscriber or group of affiliated subscribers
may own after conversion at any given time is 4.99%. The number of shares of
common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible debentures is 4,166,667
based on a conversion price of $0.30 per share. We are required to register 300%
of this amount, for a total of 12,500,000 shares. The actual conversion price
will depend on the market price of our common stock prior to the conversion. In
addition, 500,000 shares underlying warrants are being registered. These
warrants, which expire May 31, 2006, have an exercise price of $1.78.
13
The parties have made mutually agreeable standard representations and
warranties. We have also entered into covenants including, but not limited to,
the following:
* we may not redeem the convertible debentures without the consent of
the holder;
* we have agreed to incur penalties for untimely delivery of the shares.
Upon any event of default, including the failure to register or deliver shares
of common stock in a timely manner upon conversion, the note holders can require
us to immediately pay a sum equal to 130% of the unconverted principal amount of
the notes, together with accrued but unpaid interest
14

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included elsewhere in this prospectus. This document contains
forward-looking statements including, among others, anticipated trends in our
financial condition and results of operations and our business strategy. These
forward-looking statements are based largely on our current expectations and are
subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ
materially from these forward-looking statements. Important factors to consider
in evaluating such forward-looking statements include (i) changes in external
competitive market factors or in our internal budgeting process which might
impact trends in the our results of operations; (ii) unanticipated working
capital or other cash requirements; (iii) changes in the our business strategy
or an inability to execute its strategy due to unanticipated changes in the
industries in which we operates; and (iv) various competitive factors that may
prevent the us from competing successfully in the marketplace.
Results of Operations
Nine Months Ended July 31, 2001 Compared to The Nine Months Ended July 31, 2000
Consolidated Revenues. Consolidated revenues for the nine months ended July
31, 2001 increased to $19,053,840 as compared to nominal revenue of $79,432 for
the same period in 2000. The increase in revenues is the result of expanded
wireless products distribution in the US and Canada, resulting in a $18,573,762
increase, and continued growing demand for Celltech's testing, compliance filing
and specific absorption rate related services contributing an additional
$400,646 over the nine month period ending July 31, 2001.
Consolidated revenues for the three months ended July 31, 2001 were
$2,231,911 as compared consolidated revenues for the three months ended April
30, 2001 of $5,593,887. The $3,361,976 decrease in revenues is the result of our
decision in April 2001 to end a handset distribution agreement that had
experienced sharp margin declines and no longer met strategic objectives. We
earned $4.2 million in handset sales revenues during the quarter ending April
30, 2001, however changing market conditions, declining world pricing and
margins for the product resulted in the decision to end the supply agreement.
The decline in revenues as a result the severing the hand-set agreement has been
partially offset by the sale of remaining accessory product located in our Los
Angeles warehouse during the quarter ending July 31, 2001.
During the quarter ending July 31, 2001, we refocused our product
distribution business. While we will continue to distribute and sell selected
wireless equipment manufacturers handsets and accessory product, we are moving
towards a greater emphasis on distribution of Globus proprietary product and
specifically targeting value-added, differentiated sales opportunities. As a
result of refocusing our revenue stream on proprietary products, with
significantly greater margins and less competition, we do not believe this trend
will continue.
Gross Margins. Gross margins for the nine months ended July 31, 2001 were
$2,360,161 or 12.4% of revenue, an increase from nominal gross margin earnings
of $67,776 or 85.3% for the same period in 2000. The dollar increase in gross
margins is directly attributable to revenue volumes associated with handset and
wireless accessory sales. The decline in gross margin as a percentage of revenue
is the result of a change in the revenue generating product mix. Ending with the
nine month period ended July 31, 2001 the distribution focus had been on higher
volume, lower margin wireless handset products generating gross margins of 10.2%
over the nine month period.
Amortization. Amortization of $335,537 relates directly to amortization of
Goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Edge Continental Inc. and PCI
Marketing and Communications Inc.
General and Administrative Costs. General and administrative costs for the
nine months ended July 31, 2001 increased to $2,927,827 or 15.7% of revenues as
compared to $916,426 for the same period in 2000 representing a 219.5% increase.
Increases in general and administrative costs are attributed to additions in
distribution operations and to increases experienced in investor relations and
corporate administration and marketing. Distribution operations collectively
accounted for increased general and administrative costs of $1,253,899, Korean
manufacturing operations accounted for $28,107 and additions to corporate
staffing, legal, accounting and administration relative to financing,
acquisitions, and general business, and investor relations accounted for
increased costs of $729,395.
Interest Charges. Interest charges for the nine month period ending July
31, 2001 represents interest costs associated with debt bearing interest and
non-cash interest associated beneficial conversion of notes payable, fair value
of warrants, and deemed debt discount. Interest expense associated with interest
bearing debt is $302,867. Non-cash interest expense associated with beneficial
conversion of notes payable, fair value of warrants, and deemed debt discount is
$257,803.
19
Comprehensive Loss. We recorded a comprehensive loss of $1,539,202 or
$(0.09) per share for the nine months ended July 31, 2001 as compared to a
comprehensive loss of $1,061,386 or $(0.09) per share over the same period in
2000. Increased revenue resulting in gross margin improvements of $2,292,385
coupled with minor cost reductions in non-operating costs of $86,265, have been
offset by cost increases in general and administrative costs of $2,011,401,
amortization of $284,395, and interest charges of $560,670.
Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable at July 31, 2001 is $521,917, a
decrease of $4,351,960 from $4,873,877 recorded at fiscal year end October 31,
2000. The decrease is due to collection of $3,847,000, on a now exited a
handsets distribution agreement, and aggressive collection policies resulting in
a further contraction of $424,922.
Prepaid Expenses. Prepaid expenses at July 31, 2001 are $1,895,978 as
compared to $18,576 at fiscal year end October 31, 2000. The large increase is
attributable to trade credits associated with the sale of wireless accessory
inventory amounting $1,400,000, prepaid royalties of $275,000 associated with a
technology licensing agreement, prepaid rents and deposits relating to start-up
of Korean operations, and advance payments on laboratory equipment at Celltech
Research Inc., and advances on operations of $129,402.
Fixed Assets. Fixed assets were $554,524, net of accumulated amortization,
at July 31, 2001 as compared to $428,738 at fiscal year end October 31, 2000,
net of accumulated amortization. The 29.3% increase is attributable to
laboratory research equipment at Celltech Research Inc., and start-up fixed
assets acquisitions at Globus Wireless Korea Ltd.
Deferred Financing Costs. Deferred financing costs of are associated
financing activities of the Company with respect to certain financial
instruments entered into by the company. Deferred financing costs of $240,500
will be realized over the earlier of the term of the financial instrument and
the conversion of the financial instrument into our common shares.
Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities. Accounts payable and accrued
liabilities decreased $3,391,126, or 80.5% to $823,408 at July 31, 2001 from
$4,214,534 at fiscal year end October 31, 2000. The decrease in Accounts payable
and accrued liabilities is largely attributable to the settlement of outstanding
balances related to the handset agreement resulting in a decrease of $3,404,268.
Notes payable. Notes payable at July 31, 2001 were $475,000 and were issued
to secure funding for working capital purposes and to extinguish earlier issued
bridge loans of previously acquired Edge Continental Inc.
Fiscal Year Ending October 31, 2000 Compared to Fiscal Year Ending October 31,
1999
Consolidated Revenues. Revenues for the period ending October 31, 2000 were
$6,296,301. We did not record sales revenues during fiscal 1999. The increase in
revenues reflects wireless handset and accessory sales of $6,107,253 and
engineering revenues of $189,048.
Gross Margins. Wireless handset and accessory gross marginswere$943,320 or
14.9% of revenue. Engineering gross margins were $189,048 or 100% of revenue.
Costs associated with generation of engineering revenue are recorded in Selling,
General, and Administrative costs. We did not record gross margin earnings in
fiscal 1999.
Selling, general, and administrative. Selling, general, and administrative
costs for the year ending October 31, 2000 were $1,943,321 or 30. 9% of revenue.
This compares with selling, general, and administrative for the year ended
20
October 31, 1999 of $746,071. The increase in selling, general, and
administrative costs is attributable to operations in the US $21,475,
integration of Eastern Canada distribution operations contributing additional
costs of $221,514, and additional senior management, legal and regulatory fees,
and head office operations contributing additional cost of $954,151.
Loss per share. In the year ending October 31, 2000, we recorded a loss of
$1,205,613 or $(0.10) per share. This compares to a $868,596 or $(0.10) per
share loss recorded in the year ending October 31, 1999. The increased loss in
fiscal 2000 is attributable to increased costs of amortization of $83,183,
selling, general and administrative of $1,197,140, interest costs of $167,300,
and Research and Development of $32,742. This is partially offset by positive
variances resulting from increased sales volumes of wireless handsets and
accessories translating into gross margin of $943,320, and engineering revenue
of 189,048 and non-operating costs of $10,980
Accounts receivable. Accounts receivable at October 31, 2000 were
$4,873,877 or 77.4% of revenue, an increase of $4,838,680 from $35,197 recorded
at the year ending October 31, 1999. This increase is attributable to wireless
handset and accessory sales contributing $3,846,845, and the impact of newly
acquired Markham, Ontario operations contributing $782,981. The balance is
attributable to US based wireless handset and accessory sales.
Inventory. Inventory at October 31, 2000 was $1,143,891. There were no
recorded inventories at October 31, 1999. The increase in inventory is
attributable the growth of the wireless products distribution business
contributing $221,326, and the acquisition of Markham, Ontario operations
contributing $922,565.
Short-term investments. Short-term investments reflects investments in a
perspective acquisition of PCI, d/b/a Shop Wireless Ltd. Conclusion of this
investment is expected to take place before the end of the first quarter of
fiscal 2001.
Fixed assets. Fixed assets increased $138,387, from $290,351 (net of
accumulated amortization) at October 31, 1999 to $428,738 at October 31, 2000
(net of accumulated amortization). The increase is attributable primarily to the
purchase of laboratory equipment for Celltech Research Inc and assets acquired
in the purchase of Edge Continental Inc.
Amortization. Amortization costs for the year ended October 31, 2000 were
$132,316 compared with $49,133 for the year ended October 31, 1999.
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Accounts payable and accrued
liabilities increased $4,073,308, to $4,214,534 as at October 31, 2000. This
increase is attributable to purchases of wireless products for distribution
operations contributing $3,561,602, and acquisition of Markham, Ontario
operations contributing $511,706 .
Short-term. Short-term debt increased $498,879 from $1,121 at October 31,
1999 to $500,000 at October 31, 2000. The increase is attributable to private
placement loan proceeds of $500,000.
Notes payable. Notes payable at October 31, 2000 were $780,375 and reflect
the outstanding debt due to lenders of Edge Continental Inc. There were no
outstanding note loans as of fiscal 1999.
Plan of Operation
In fiscal 2001, we initiated the following actions and strategies with
regards to the on going advancement of business opportunities through to the
current quarter.
21
In November 2000, we announced the acquisition of Edge Continental Inc., a
wireless products distribution company, for a combination of shares and cash
totaling $1.55 million. In December 2000 its operations in Markham, Ontario were
amalgamated into Globus Wireless Canada Ltd. In the 2nd quarter of fiscal 2001,
the former principals of Edge Continental terminated their employment with us.
Settlement with one principal is completed and involved the return of 75,000 of
the 150,000 previously issued shares and forfeiture of the balance of $166,667
owing under the acquisition. Settlement with the other principal is still
outstanding. Business at Markham has been reengineered.. New sales management
have been retained, the integration program is now expected to be completed in
our 3rd quarter of fiscal year 2001. In addition to savings of $25,000 per month
from staff changes, operations have been downsized and divisional costs reduced
by 25%, inclusive of salaries, benefits, and variable costs associated thereto.
The operations provided 7 % of revenues in the second quarter.
In December 1, 2000, we commenced setup of a new US based Marketing,
Procurement & Distribution Center in California, to serve as the primary US
sales and distribution center, opening in February 2001. We have a lease
commitment on the facility thru to April 30, 2002, at $19,744 per month.
We acquired PCI Marketing & Communications Inc., which now operates as
Globus On-Line Inc., d/b/a Shop Wireless.Com. This business unit is operated as
a stand-alone entity, while sharing resources with Globus Wireless Canada Ltd.
We provide both growth funding, up to $486,300 thru to April 30, 2002, as well
as certain proprietary products that provide Shop Wireless.Com with greater
margins than in our other volume-driven distribution channels. Shop Wireless
provided 5% of our total revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 2001.
In January 2001, we entered into a specific absorption rate engineering
services agreement with Deltacom Co. Ltd. of Korea. We completed a preliminary
analysis in January 2001. In March 2001, Deltacom advised us that software
technical and business difficulties were delaying the product launch. We express
concerns regarding the ability of Deltacom Co. Ltd. to complete this contract
and believe our relationship with Deltacom has reached a conclusion and no
further transactions will transpire with respect to this contract. As a result
of our concerns, we only recorded non-refundable deposits of $75,000 in our
revenues.
In April 2001, we secured a worldwide exclusive technology licensing
agreement with Cadco Ltd., of Hamilton, Ontario, concerning products and
technologies ready for the wireless market. The first product under the
agreement is a portable hands-free in-vehicle speakerphone, which was launched
in June 2001. Full-scale product distribution will commence over the 4th quarter
of fiscal 2001 and the first quarter of 2002 as manufacturing operations in
Korea come on stream. The agreement with Cadco required us to advance up to
$300,000 in royalty payments to be set-off against future royalty payments due
to Cadco. At July 31, 2001, we advanced $275,000 as prepayment of the royalty
payments. Subsequent to July 31, 2001, we advanced further royalty prepayments
of $60,000. To date, we have not received any revenue in connection with this
agreement. Our maximum expense under this agreement is 6% of the revenues
received in connection with the sale of this product.
In April 2001, we also announced an expansion program for research
subsidiary Celltech Research Inc., which will provide the resources and
opportunity to service multiple wireless equipment manufacturers and to advance
our proprietary research efforts. The new research and development center will
be located in a new high tech park in Kelowna, British Columbia, and open this
fall.
In April 2001, we ended a handset distribution agreement that had
experienced sharp margin declines and no longer met strategic objectives. We
earned $13.6 million in handset sales revenues for fiscal 2001 prior to ending
the supply agreement, however changing market conditions, declining world
pricing and margins for the product resulted in the decision to end the supply
agreement for the remaining $24.8 million in product. We are now concentrating
22
our revenue stream efforts on proprietary products with significantly greater
margins and less competition. Revenues are projected to further decline in the
3rd quarter of fiscal 2001, while we prepare for the manufacture launch of our
proprietary hands-free product and then rise again in the 4th quarter 2001 when
supply lines solidified.
On June 2, 2001, Mr. Tom. W. Pick was appointed President & CEO, and member
of the board of directors. Mr. Pick has in excess of 20 years experience in the
wireless industry, most recently as Director, North American Carrier &
Distributor Operations for Motorola Inc.
On August 15, 2001, Mr. Gene Haley was appointed Director of U.S. Sales,
responsible for sales revenue creation, account management, and business
development for the United States. On August 31, 2001, Mr. Cary Tremblay,
formally Senior Vice President Corporate Development, International & Carrier
Sales resigned his position. On September 1, 2001, Mr. Gord Walsh, formally
Senior Vice President Marketing & Sales, Wireless Devices moved to the position
of Business Unit Director for Globus Online Inc.
Expertise in providing specific absorption rate solutions for wireless
phone manufacturers and identifying new solutions, processes and products to
address these issues and product performance remain our strategic priority.
During the most recent quarter, we focused primarily on a continuing expansion
of marketing efforts for a range of proprietary wireless products and a
revamping of our distribution model, consistent with the specific absorption
rate and performance issues focus for our business plans, including new business
opportunities in this area. Our business plans call for significant expenditures
over the next 12-month period, up to $5.0 million, including a $1.13 million for
capital expenditures, $1.8 million in inventories and $550,000 on technologies
and product development, $475,000 bridge loan retirement, and the balance of
$1,045,000 for working capital.
The business focus will remain on specific absorption rate and performance
products in fiscal 2001, with greater emphasis on higher margin product sales as
distribution channels become more firmly established. We continue to actively
examine both market opportunities and market fluctuations for wireless product
distribution, particularly in light of turbulent market conditions. Projected
inventory finance requirements are primarily for the recently launched wireless
handsfree product technology.
We are committed to both expanding subsidiary Celltech Research, advancing
research on technologies in both the radio frequency and audio spectrum of
wireless communication devices. Any new technologies and resulting products will
have relevant specific absorption rate implications and as well adhere to a
commitment to high performance products. Celltech Research expansion and
research program costs are projected at $836,000 thru to fiscal year end.
We may have to secure additional capital financing beyond our current
agreements, to meet ongoing requirements and our stated objectives throughout
the fiscal year ending October 31, 2001. We are currently seeking a minimum of
$5.0 million in new financing, debt and equity, to realize our business plans.
Negotiations are continuing with potential investors and with current finance
partners and we will look to secure new investment banking before the end of
fiscal 2001, subject to general market conditions and reaching an agreement for
such services that is favorable.
Based on current market conditions, and success in raising private
financing in the past, the we expect to complete financings as required for
growth and operations. The costs of equity financings have risen significantly
and we are looking to gain improved debt finance. We have only entered in to
debt instrument financing this current fiscal year, firstly on a bridge loan
basis, to provide for working capital and to replace more expensive bridge loan
financing issued by prior owners of our recent acquisition of Edge Continental.
We are not satisfied with the interest expense being incurred for our short term
borrowing needs and continue to pursue alternative and less expensive financing.
We expect to be in a position for greater asset based, lower interest cost
finance by the 1st quarter fiscal 2002.
23
Any significant capital expenses or increases in operating costs will be
dependent upon the ability to raise additional capital, debt financing,
associated costs for new financing and our ability to generate revenue from
sales of our products or services.
Historically, we have not generated sufficient revenue from sales of our
products or services to sustain operations. The sales cycle to wireless
equipment manufacturers of a proprietary specific absorption rate solution
processes have been lengthy and is just recently generating interest from the
industry.
Furthermore, the Wireless Devices Accessory Group only recently saw its
sales grow in the 4th quarter of fiscal 2000. This growth trend in wireless
devices distribution revenues continued in the 1st quarter fiscal 2001, however
declining margins and sales were experienced in the 2nd quarter. Forecasted
revenues generated by product distribution have been lowered for the last two
quarters of fiscal 2001 as we moved to focus more on higher margin proprietary
product, especially with the market launch of the hands-free, portable,
in-vehicle speakerphone in the 3rd quarter of fiscal 2001. Our revised revenue
forecast for fiscal 2001 is $23.1 million, with $19.1 million in revenues earned
thru to end of the 3rd quarter.
Subject to market conditions, we are projecting to self-finance some of the
expansion plans and will continue to examine product offerings to improve
margins.
Liquidity & Capital Resources
12% Convertible Preferred Series A Shares
On November 21, 2000, we received bridge financing of $250,000 bearing
interest at 18% per annum, due December 21, 2000. On January 2, 2001, we
received an additional $750,000 which, along with the $250,000 referred to above
and $500,000 received prior to October 31, 2000, aggregating $1,500,000, was
converted into 1,500 series A convertible preferred shares and 415,236 common
share purchase warrants.
The series A convertible preferred shares are entitled to a liquidation
preference amount of $1,000 per share and a 12% annual cumulative dividend,
calculated on the liquidation preference amount, payable quarterly and are
convertible into our common stock after April 28, 2001 determined by the
following formula:
$1,500,000 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends divided by the lessor of:
a) $1.8062; or
b) 80% of the average of the three lowest bid prices of our common stock
for the twenty days immediately prior to the conversion.
The Series A convertible preferred shares are convertible until December
29, 2003 at which time any shares not converted shall automatically convert to
common shares at a price determined by the above formula.
The common share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $1.9862 per
common share and expire on January 2, 2006. To date the purchase warrants remain
unexercised.In this prospectus, we are registering 9,375,000 shares of common
stock underlying $1,500,000 series A convertible preferred stock issued to
24
accredited investors pursuant to a subscription agreements dated in December
2000 and January 2001. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon
conversion of the outstanding series A convertible preferred stock is 3,125,000
assuming a conversion price of $0.48 per share. We are required to register 300%
of this amount, for a total of 9,375,000 shares. In addition, 415,236 shares
underlying warrants are being registered in connection with these financings.
These warrants have an exercise price of $1.9862 per share.
A deemed discount existed at the date of issue of the $250,000 of bridge
financing received on November 21, 2000, due to both the fair value of attached
warrants and the resultant beneficial conversion option. As this financing was
due December 21, 2000, the deemed debt discount, aggregating of $132,900 was
charged against income during the period ended April 30, 2001. In conjunction
with the conversion of the bridge financing, warrants were issued on January 2,
2001 as an inducement to the holder of the $500,000 of bridge financing to
convert. The fair value of these warrants of $83,000 has been recorded by a
charge against income at the date of their issuance. Consideration for the
$750,000 of financing received on January 2, 2001 was issued as preferred
shares. In accordance with EITF 98-5 and EITF 00-27, with respect to the fair
value assigned to the warrants, the deemed discount of $124,500 is being
recognized by a charge against equity, over the period from January 2, 2001 to
the forced conversion date into common shares of December 29, 2003, and the
deemed discount due to the beneficial conversion option of $231,100 was
amortized over the period from January 2, 2001 to the first conversion date of
April 28, 2001.
Proceeds received from this financing were used for general working capital
purposes, funding of operations and acquisition financing.
Short Term Promissory Notes
During the nine months ended July31, 2001, we received $800,000 in exchange
for four promissory notes to four investors. The notes are secured by a pledge
by Globus, in the event of default, to issue an amount of its common stock with
a value of two times any outstanding principal and unpaid interest. $625,000 and
$175,000 of the notes bear interest at 30% and 24% per annum respectively,
payable monthly. The notes are due as follows: June 26, 2001 -$325,000, since
repaid in full on the due date; and September 26, 2001 - $475,000. Proceeds for
these notes were used for general working capital purposes and acquisition
financing.
8% Convertible Debentures
We are also registering 7,812,500 shares of common stock underlying
$800,000 and $450,000 of 8% convertible debentures, due May 31, 2003 and June 6,
2003, respectively. The convertible debentures were issued to four investors
pursuant to a Subscription Agreement dated May 31, 2001. Interest only payments
are due quarterly commencing September 30, 2001, and the principal is due in one
lump sum on the due dates, or upon events of default.
The conversion price for the convertible debentures is the lesser of 85% of
the average of the three lowest closing prices for the common stock for the 30
trading days prior to but not including the day of closing, or 85% percent of
the average of the three lowest closing prices for the common stock for the 30
trading days prior to but not including the conversion date. The maximum number
of shares of common stock that any subscriber or group of affiliated subscribers
may own after conversion at any given time is 4.99%. The number of shares of
common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible debentures is 2,604,166
based on a conversion price of $0.177 per share. We are required to register
200% of this amount, for a total of 7,812,500 shares. The actual conversion
price will depend on the market price of our common stock prior to the
conversion. In addition, 500,000 shares underlying warrants are being
registered. These warrants, which expire May 31, 2006, have an exercise price of
$1.78.
The parties have made mutually agreeable standard representations and
warranties. We have also entered into covenants including, but not limited to,
the following:
* we may not redeem the convertible debentures without the consent of
the holder;
* we have agreed to incur penalties for untimely delivery of the shares.
25
Proceeds received have been used to finance general working capital
purposes, opening of Korean subsidiary operations, advance royalty payments
under the Globus Cadco Technology License Agreement and new specific absorption
rate technology developments.
Terminated Financings
On October 18, 2000, we entered into an Agreement for Sale of Manufactured
Goods, with Aztec Components, Inc., a California corporation. The one year
agreement is for the sale of analog phone devices. We signed a Corporate
Acknowledgment & Guaranty, in respect of being granted $3,000,000 credit terms
received by us from Aztec and the $5,000,000 promissory note.
On March 31, 2001, the parties mutually agreed to terminate the
relationship owing to a severe downturn in the demand for handsets models set
forth in the agreement. Accordingly, Aztec Components Inc. released Globus from
obligations under the Agreement for Sale of Manufactured Goods, Corporate
Acknowledgment & Guaranty, and the promissory note. Provisions under the
promissory note were never exercised by Aztec Components Inc.
On May 24, 2001, we terminated the equity financing agreement with Torneaux
Fund, Ltd., an institutional investor. No securities were issued in connection
with this agreement.
Dividends
No dividends have been declared since our inception nor do we anticipate
that dividends will be declared in the ensuing fiscal year.
Capital Commitments
We do not have existing capital resources or credit lines available that
are sufficient to fund our operations and capital requirements as presently
planned over the next twelve months. We are actively pursuing additional funds
through the issuance of debt and/or equity instruments. Currently, we are
discussing with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. the possibilities of additional
financing. While we have reached agreement on individual short term financing,
no assurances can be given that additional financing will be forthcoming. We may
also seek a working capital line of credit to be secured by our accounts
receivable and inventory. However, such funds may not be available on favorable
terms or at all.

History
We were incorporated on June 10, 1987, pursuant to the laws of the State of
Nevada under the name Daytona-Pacific Corporation. On October 18, 1994, we
acquired all of the assets of Globus Cellular & User Protection Ltd. (Canada), a
corporation formed in the Province of British Columbia, Canada, on July 28,
1993. With this acquisition of wireless technology, we then changed our name to
Globus Cellular & User Protection Ltd. In August 1997, we changed our name to
Globus Cellular, Ltd. On December 9, 1999, we changed our name to Globus
Wireless, Ltd., the name being more indicative of our expertise, technologies
and new product lines.
From 1995 to 1999, we were a development stage company. Research prototype
antennae were continually designed and tested by researchers at Globus as they
pursued advancements in near field radiation reduction and far field performance
enhancement. An extensive patent program commenced. Research efforts were to be
bolstered when on August 16, 1996, the United States Federal Communications
Commission came out with new stringent guidelines for the cellular industry
manufacturers of phone devises requiring that these products not exceed
radiation exposure levels to users. These guidelines force manufacturers into
compliance by either tuning down the output of the phones or redesigning the
antennas to reduce exposure to users.
In June 1999, we had a change in our management following the resignation
of the President and CEO. Our board of directors subsequently appointed a new
executive group to manage Globus. Past Vice President, 1994-97, Mr. Bernard
Penner, was appointed President, CEO and Chairman, past General Manager, Mr.
Nick Wizinsky, was appointed Chief Operations Officer and Secretary Treasurer,
and later was named Chief Financial Officer, and Mr. Cary Tremblay was appointed
Vice President--Marketing & Sales, moving to Senior Vice President Corporate
Development, International & Carrier Sales in September 2000. Mr. Tremblay
resigned his position on August 31, 2001. The decision was made by the board of
directors to move Globus forward from being a development company to an
operational concern with proven product, manufacturing capabilities, marketing
and sales revenue and profitability. In April 2000, Mr. Gord Walsh joined the
executive group and serves as Senior Vice President Marketing & Sales, Wireless
Devices Dealer Distribution. Mr Walsh has since moved to the position of
Business Unit Director, Globus Online Inc.
In June of 2001, Mr. Tom W. Pick, former Director of Operations for
Motorola Inc., joined us as President, CEO and Director. Our former President
and CEO, Bernard Penner, continues to serve us as Chairman and President of
Globus Wireless Canada Ltd. and Globus On-Line Inc.
Our research operation is headed by physicist, Mr. Shawn McMillan,
recognized and respected industry-wide in the field of specific absorption rate
research.. Mr. McMillan is a member of the FCC IEEE subcommittee responsible for
establishing industry regulations for Radio Frequency or RF radiation of
wireless communication devices.

Principal Products and Services
Specific Absorption Rate Compliance and Engineering Laboratory services
The primary objective of our research and development division, Celltech
Research Inc., is to assist wireless equipment manufacturers with their product
compliance to Federal Communications Commission guidelines for specific
absorption rate and effective radiated power emissions, simultaneously providing
real-world performance enhancing solutions as demanded from the marketplace.
In addition to providing third party testing and engineered specific
absorption rate solutions, Celltech provides Globus with on-going research and
development in the pursuit of specific absorption rate related initiatives for
both aftermarket and wireless equipment manufacturers.
Celltech competes with a very limited number of like qualified testing-only
driven labs around the world, based primarily in North America and Europe,
including PC Test, and Apprel, as well as other US-based firms such as Rhientech
and Washington Labs.
Wireless Product Distribution
Our recently revamped international product distribution engine, including
contributions from the acquisitions of Edge Continental and PCI Marketing, has
provided us with the means to move products, wireless equipment manufacturers,
aftermarket or our design, both ways through the distribution channel. While we
will continue to sell an array of wireless equipment, manufacturers handsets,
and accessory product, we are strategically moving towards a greater emphasis on
distribution of Globus proprietary product, specifically targeting higher
margin, value-added, and differentiated sales opportunities.
Presently, we distribute wireless equipment and aftermarket accessories
directly to a network of Canadian dealers and select US distributors and
carriers. We currently hold exclusive distribution rights for certain
aftermarket wireless products. This distribution network allows us to introduce
the portable in-vehicle speakerphone and other proprietary products to the
market quickly. Having a distribution capability is an important means for us to
readily identify the needs of dealers and consumers, especially for the
development of new technologies and their respective niche market opportunities.
Primary distribution of Globus proprietary products will occur through
established, large-scale distributors, carriers and wireless equipment
manufacturers. Defined territory international distribution agreements and
strategic joint ventures will be considered and promoted on the basis of
receiving advanced licensing fees. We are currently negotiating for distribution
rights to the hands-free, in-vehicle speakerphone in Japan and Europe.
We own and operate Globus On-Line Inc., d/b/a ShopWireless.com, a business
to consumer e-commerce Company with US, Canadian and United Kingdom URLs.
Although e-tail businesses in general have had major declines in business, we
remain committed in the long term to the business and distribution channel
provided by ShopWireless. Plans have been initiated to re-engineer and re-focus
the business, maximizing cost efficiencies through direct cost reductions and
cost avoidance programs, improve on current product margins and see Globus core
products, such as the portable in-vehicle speakerphone, moved through this
channel. Additionally, we are now seeking strategic partners for this business
unit, targeting regional and national businesses currently without an e-commerce
operation.
We will continue to explore new market, product and technology
opportunities in the industry, leverage established relationships and build new
relationships in our various distribution channels.
29
Research & Development
Design and engineering of specific absorption rate related technologies
have been the primary focus of our research and development efforts. Research
efforts have been further defined to focus on resolving emissions and design
issues to enable clients to get their products to market as quickly as possible.
For the year ended October 31, 1999, we expensed approximately $70,745 in
research & development. For the year ended October 31, 2000, we have expensed
$103,487 in research and development.
Competition
Specific Absorption Rate Compliance and Engineering Laboratory services
We are not aware of any direct competition for our core specific absorption
rate solution processes that focus on low radiation and high performance factors
in a wireless equipment manufacturers handset, or other RF-emitting devices.
There are several firms in the marketplace providing a variety of antenna
technologies, such as Centurion in Nebraska, Ace Antenna in Korea and Algon in
Sweden; however, we have established an expertise in antenna design and
shielding research, particularly in the areas of low radiation and high
performance, through our wholly-owned subsidiary Celltech Research. There are
other testing labs, including PC Test in Maryland, and Apprel Labs in Ottawa,
Ontario, operating for the sole purpose of generating testing only revenues;
however, to our knowledge there is no other testing center like Celltech were
testing, solutions and compliance filing can all be provided to the wireless
equipment manufacturers. Most of the wireless equipment manufacturers do have
some type of internal testing lab organization, but with the exception of a few
larger wireless equipment manufacturers such as Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson and
Samsung, most contract out testing of the product to FCC and/or Industry Canada
regulations, or other regulatory bodies in other parts of the world.
With supporting efforts and facilities at Celltech, we will continue filing
for patent protection of new antennae designs should we deem such action to be
in our best interests. Our policy is to seek patent protection in the major
industrial markets firstly, and to then seek protection in emerging markets
where wireless networks are or will be surpassing growth of traditional
land-based communication networks. With respect to our proprietary specific
absorption rate solutions processes, we have instead elected to protect these
and our how-to knowledge under an internal trade-secret policy. Wireless
equipment manufacturers' clients are provided only with an end-solution and do
not participate in research efforts to resolve specific absorption rate and
performance issues on their particular handset or other device. Key employees
and senior management knowledgeable in the trade secret processes utilized are
under non-competition non-disclosure agreements and full disclosure is limited
to senior-most persons in the organization.Celltech's advantage comes in
providing a "total solution", from testing, problem solving and engineering,
design and if required contract manufacture of components. Additionally,
Celltech testing and solution services are focused on requirements for RF
emitting devices and the company has the latest in testing apparatus, equipment
and facilities, facilitated by GM Shawn McMillen's position on the FCC
subcommittee for SAR.
Wireless Product Distribution
There are a host of wireless equipment manufacturer, aftermarket and
e-commerce competitors to the product line in these and other world markets.
Each of our products, with the exception of the recently launched hands-free,
in-vehicle speakerphone, has a proven track record in North American, European
or Asian marketplaces. Competition with similar products, if any, would be on
the basis of price, performance, quality of the products and delivery time to
the client. It is the latter factor, the ability to fulfill quickly, that has
become of increasing importance in the highly competitive wireless industry
30
market and we are confident, with distribution centers in Los Angeles, Markham
Ontario, Seoul Korea and Kelowna, B.C., it can satisfy market demands to deliver
quality product on time. As well, products, such as the hands-free, in-vehicle
speakerphone, provide an exclusive technology leadership position.
Marketing
The world wide wireless industry has been and will continue to demonstrate
tremendous growth. In less than a decade it has become a trillion US dollar
industry. Emergence of new wireless platforms that are able to converge with the
other technologies are opening up new markets worldwide. Lower acquisition and
operating costs for the consumer are making wireless technology more accessible
each day. So much so that in some markets in Asia Pacific wireless is starting
to directly compete with traditional landline services. There are conflicting
analyst projections regarding the rate of growth, but there is consensus the
industry will continue to experience explosive growth.
Proprietary products will become the focus of our sales and distribution
efforts, allowing it to further differentiate the Globus brand in the
marketplace. The Company is moving away from distribution sales of product lines
with large numbers of competitors, competing primarily on the basis of price and
supply time, resulting in low and declining margins. The Company recently opted
out of a handset distribution agreement for these reasons and is now
distributing handsets on an opportunistic, limited numbers, set margin target
basis.
Manufacturing
Globus maintains a facility in Seoul, Korea, primarily for the purpose of
supervising quality and coordinating contract manufacturing for exclusively
distributed Globus products. In addition to controlling contract manufacturing,
Globus Korea is responsible for distribution of Globus products in the local
Korean market.
Through an exclusive worldwide technology licensing agreement with Cadco
Ltd., Globus will introduce the first portable speakerphone for cellular
telephone communication in a vehicle using true digital signal processing. We
have filed for trademark protection of the name hands-free, in-vehicle
speakerphone for this product.
The first such product being manufactured in Korea is the hands-free,
in-vehicle speakerphone. The manufacturing processes were tested and proven
initially in Canada by Cadco and then transferred to Globus personnel in Korea,
who were able to reduce the cost of manufacturing by a factor of over 50%.
Globus Korea consists of several key individuals with extensive industry and
manufacturing experience, and local and Asian networks.
Employees
We currently have 36 full-time employees in the operations, marketing,
sales and research areas of the business. None of our employees in any division
or subsidiary are covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and we believe
that our relations with employees are good. To date, employee turnover has been
nominal, and we have historically been able to attract qualified and experienced
personnel.
Government Regulations
According to federal environmental regulators, US and Canada, our specific
absorption rate solutions technologies and processes, are considered passive
devices and, as such, fall outside the scope of Radiation Emitting Devices
Regulations. At present there are no federal environmental regulations to which
our products are subject. Currently, the US government, through the FCC, has set
31
guidelines for antenna radiation emission levels, measured in conjunction with
the operation of a wireless phone. Our specific absorption rate solutions are
designed to assist wireless phone wireless equipment manufacturers whose product
must satisfy these guidelines. There is no assurance, however, that specific
regulations on Globus product will not be implemented in the future, by FCC or
other government agencies.
Various products in the Wireless Devices Product Group, as provided by
wireless equipment manufacturers, are tested and in compliance with their
respective standards in the applicable jurisdiction, including FCC, IC, UL and
CSA standards. Otherwise it is our policy not to distribute non-standard or
non-complying product.
Liability Insurance; Indemnification
We have comprehensive and global insurance policies providing for general
liability, fire, and other loss types, as well to protect against liabilities
arising out of the negligence of our officers and directors and/or deficiencies
in any of our business operations. We presently pay $125,000 annually for our
business insurances coverage. There is no assurance, however that such insurance
coverage would be adequate to satisfy any potential claims made against us, our
officers and directors, or resulting losses that may arise in our business
operations or with loss of products. Any such liability that might arise could
be substantial and may exceed the assets of Globus. Our articles of
incorporation and by-laws provide for indemnification of our officers and
directors to the fullest extent permitted under Nevada law. However, insofar as
indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons, it is the opinion of
the Securities Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy, as expressed in the Act, and is therefore, unenforceable.
Legal Proceedings
In December 1999, we filed a statement of claim in the British Columbia
Supreme Court, against Paul Bickert, our former president and director,
including allegations that he breached fiduciary duties as a director and
officer, and requests for confirmation of our ownership of the patented
technology and for unspecified damages against Mr. Bickert. A trial date had
been set for April of 2002, however in September 2001, Globus and Mr. Bickert
announced an out of court settlement of this dispute. This non-cash resolution
is based on a Letter of intent between the parties and is subject to
formalization of the settlement documents in which Mr. Bickert will assign all
patents and patent pending applications in the proprietary antenna technology to
Globus.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Prior to this offering, we entered into transactions and business
relationships with of our officers, directors and principal stockholders or
their affiliates. Except as discussed below, we believe that all of the
transactions were on terms no less favorable than we could have obtained from
independent third parties. Any future transactions between us and our officers,
directors or affiliates will be subject to approval by a majority of
disinterested directors or stockholders in accordance with Nevada.
Between January and May 1999, and prior to Mr. Penner rejoining Globus in
June 1999, we hired and paid $74,820 to Redline Contracting Ltd., a company
controlled by Mr. Penner, for improvements to our new Celltech Research facility

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common
stock, par value $.001 per share, of which 14,502,452 shares were issued and
outstanding as of the date hereof, and 20,000,000 shares of "blank check"
preferred stock, of which 2,000 series A convertible preferred were authorized
and 1,500 have been issued and outstanding as of August 27, 2001.
Common Stock
The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of
record on all matters to be voted on by the shareholders. The holders of common
stock are entitled to receive dividends ratably, when, as and if declared by the
Board of Directors, out of funds legally available therefor. In the event of a
liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of Globus, the holders of common stock
are entitled to share equally and ratably in all assets remaining available for
distribution after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each
class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock.
The holders of shares of common stock, as such, have no conversion,
preemptive, or other subscription rights and there are no redemption provisions
applicable to the common stock.
Preferred Stock
General. Under our articles of incorporation, our board of directors is
authorized, subject to any limitations prescribed by the laws of the Nevada, but
without further action by our shareholders, to provide for the issuance of up to
20,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series, to establish from
time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, to fix the
designations, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series
and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, and to increase or
decrease the number of shares of any such series (but not below the number of
shares of such series then outstanding) without any further vote or action by
the stockholders. Our board of directors may authorize and issue preferred stock
with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or
other rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock,
for example in connection with a shareholder right's plan, could have the effect
of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a
third party from acquiring, a majority of Globus's outstanding stock.
12% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
The 12% series A convertible preferred stock has priority over the common
stock and all other classes and series of equity securities of our company in
the event of a liquidation of Globus. Holders of shares of the our 12% series A
convertible preferred stock are entitled to, among other things, a 12% quarterly
dividend based on the accrued value of such shares at the time of dividend,
which is payable at the option of the holders in cash or as an accrual to the
liquidation value of such shares.
Holders of the 12% series A convertible preferred stock are entitled to
voluntary and mandatory conversion and redemption of their shares under certain
circumstances.
The Series A convertible preferred shares are entitled to a liquidation
preference amount of $1,000 per share and a 12% annual cumulative dividend,
calculated on the liquidation preference amount, payable quarterly and are
convertible into our common stock after April 28, 2001 determined by the
following formula:
$1,500,000 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends divided by the lessor of:
a) $1.8062; or
b) 80% of the average of the three lowest bid prices of our common
stock for the twenty days immediately prior to the conversion.
42
The Series A convertible preferred shares are convertible until December
29, 2003 at which time any shares not converted shall automatically convert to
common shares at a price determined by the above formula.
Upon the occurrence of major transactions or triggering events, each holder
may require us to redeem their shares of 12% series A convertible preferred
stock at a price equal to 125% of the liquidation value of such shares at that
time. Our failure to effect any voluntary or mandatory conversion or redemption
of shares of 12% series A convertible preferred stock may result in the payment
of liquidated damages to the holders.
Holders of the 12% series A convertible preferred stock have class voting
rights, which require approval or consent of at least 75% of such holders before
we may:
o authorize, create, issue or increase the authorized or issued amount
of any class or series of our stock that ranks prior to the 12% series
A convertible preferred stock, with respect to the distribution of
assets on liquidation, dissolution or winding up;
o amend, alter or repeal the provisions of the 12% series A convertible
preferred stock, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, so as
to adversely affect any right, preference, privilege or voting power
of the 12% series A convertible preferred stock;
o repurchase, redeem or pay dividends on shares of our lower priority
equity;
o amend our articles of incorporation or by-laws to affect any right,
preference, privilege or voting power of the 12% series A convertible
preferred stock, except that any creation and issuance of another
series of equity of lesser or equal priority to the 12% series A
convertible preferred stock is not deemed to materially and adversely
affect such rights, preferences privileges or voting powers;
o effect any distribution with respect to our lower priority equity; or
o reclassify our outstanding securities.

The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned is determined in
accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the
information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other
purpose. Under such rule, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which
the selling stockholder has sole or shared voting power or investment power and
also any shares which the selling stockholder has the right to acquire within 60
days. The actual number of shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion
of the convertible preferred stock is subject to adjustment depending on, among
other factors, the future market price of the common stock, and could be
materially less or more than the number estimated in the table.
(1) Represents shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of series A
convertible preferred stock and exercise of warrants of the selling
shareholder, at an assumed conversion price of $0.30 per share and at an
exercise price of $1.9862 per warrant. Because the number of shares of
common stock issuable upon conversion of the preferred stock is dependent
in part upon the market price of the common stock prior to a conversion,
the actual number of shares of common stock that will be issued upon
conversion will fluctuate daily and cannot be determined at this time.
However the selling shareholder has contractually agreed to restrict its
ability to convert its preferred stock or exercise its warrants and receive
shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock
held by it and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not
exceed 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
44
(2) Includes (i) 300% of the shares issuable on conversion of the debentures,
based on an offering price of $0.48 per share, as required by our agreement
with the selling shareholders, and (ii) shares of common stock issuable
upon the exercise of warrants held by such selling stockholder. The number
of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the securities is
dependent in part upon the market price of the common stock prior to a
conversion, the actual number of shares of common stock that will be issued
in respect of such conversions and, consequently, offered for sale under
this registration statement, cannot be determined at this time.
(3) Includes (i) 11,073 shares underlying warrants that are currently

at a price of $1.9862 per share. In accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Deirdre M. McCoy may be deemed a control
person of the shares owned by such entity. The selling shareholder is
deemed an "underwriter" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the
Securities Act of 1933.
(9) Includes 69,206 shares underlying warrants that are currently exercisable
at a price of $1.9862 per share. In accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Anna Marie Lowe may be deemed a control
person of the shares owned by such entity. The selling shareholder is
deemed an "underwriter" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the
Securities Act of 1933.
(10) Represents shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of securites and
exercise of warrants of the selling shareholder. Because the number of
shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the preferred stock is
dependent in part upon the market price of the common stock prior to a
conversion, the actual number of shares of common stock that will be issued
upon conversion will fluctuate daily and cannot be determined at this time.
However the selling shareholder has contractually agreed to restrict its
ability to convert its preferred stock or exercise its warrants and receive
shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of common stock
held by it and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not
exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. As
a result of the contractual agreement not to exceed 4.99% beneficial
ownership, the selling shareholder does not believe it is a control person
as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or is required to file a
Schedule 13D.
(11) Includes 320,000 shares underlying warrants that are currently exercisable
at an exercise price of $1.78 per share. In accordance with Rule 13d-3
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Laurus Capital Management,
L.L.C. may be deemed a control person of the shares owned by such entity.
David Grin and Eugene Grin are the principals of Laurus Capital Management,
L.L.C.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell any or all of their
shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market, or trading facility on
which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at
fixed or negotiated prices. There is no assurance that the selling stockholders
will sell any or all of the common stock in this offering. The selling
stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling
shares:
o Ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the
broker-dealer solicits purchasers.
o Block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the
shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as
principal to facilitate the transaction.
o An exchange distribution following the rules of the applicable
exchange
o Privately negotiated transactions
o Short sales or sales of shares not previously owned by the seller
o A combination of any such methods of sale any other lawful method
The selling stockholders may also engage in:
o Short selling against the box, which is making a short sale when the
seller already owns the shares.
o Other transactions in our securities or in derivatives of our
securities and the subsequent sale or delivery of shares by the
stockholder.
o Pledging shares to their brokers under the margin provisions of
customer agreements. If a selling stockholder defaults on a margin
loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer to sell the pledged
shares.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other
brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions
or discounts from selling stockholders in amounts to be negotiated. If any
broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, the broker-dealer may
receive commission from the purchaser in amounts to be negotiated. The selling
stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is
customary in the types of transactions involved.
Penny Stock Rules
Our common shares are subject to the "penny stock" rules that impose
additional sales practice requirements should because our common shares are
below $5.00 per share. For transactions covered by these rules, the
broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of
the common shares and must have received the purchaser's written consent to the
transaction prior to the purchase. The "penny stock" rules also require the
delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by
the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The
broker-dealer must also disclose:
47
o the commission payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered
representative,
o current quotations for the securities, and
o if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must
disclose this fact and the broker-dealer's presumed control over the
market.
Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price
information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the
limited market in penny stocks.
These rules apply to sales by broker-dealers to persons other than
established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in
excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together
with their spouse), unless our common shares trade above $5.00 per share.
Consequently, the "penny stock" rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers
to sell our common shares, and may affect the ability to sell the common shares
in the secondary market as well as the price at which such sales can be made.
Also, some brokerage firms will decide not to effect transactions in "penny
stocks" and it is unlikely that any bank or financial institution will accept
"penny stock" as collateral.
Underwriter Status
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved
in selling the shares may be considered to be "underwriters" within the meaning
of the Securities Act for such sales. An underwriter is a person who has
purchased shares from an issuer with a view towards distributing the shares to
the public. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or
agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be
considered to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
Because the selling shareholders are deemed "underwriters" within the
meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the
prospectus delivery requirements.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration
of the shares in this offering. However, we will not pay any commissions or any
other fees in connection with the resale of the common stock in this offering.
We have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders and their officers,
directors, employees and agents, and each person who controls any selling
shareholder, in certain circumstances against liabilities, including liabilities
arising under the Securities Act. Each selling shareholder has agreed to
indemnify us and our directors and officers in certain circumstances against
certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
If the selling stockholder notifies us that they have a material
arrangement with a broker-dealer for the resale of the common stock, then we
would be required to amend the registration statement of which this prospectus
is a part, and file a prospectus supplement to describe the agreements between
the selling stockholder and the broker-dealer.
We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep this registration
statement continuously effective under the Securities Act of 1933 until such
date as is the earlier of (x) the date when all of the securities covered by
such Registration Statement have been sold or (y) the date on which the
securities may be sold without any restriction pursuant to Rule 144(k) as
determined by our counsel.
48
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Shares Outstanding and Freely Tradable After Offering. Upon completion of
this offering, we will have approximately 23,669,118 shares of common stock
outstanding, based on current market prices. The shares to be sold by the
selling stockholders in this offering will be freely tradable without
restriction or limitation under the Securities Act, except for any such shares
held by "affiliates" of Globus, as such term is defined under Rule 144 of the
Securities Act, which shares will be subject to the resale limitations under
Rule 144.
Lock-up Agreements. In connection with our acquisition of Edge Continental
Inc., we issued 300,000 shares of restricted common stock pursuant to a Stock
Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 31, 2000. The parties to the Stock
Purchase Agreement agreed not to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of any
shares of our common stock owned by them for a one-year period ending on October
31, 2001. In addition, the shares are subject to a bleed-out plan for each of
the months in the 11 month period commencing on October 31, 2001.
Rule 144. In general, under Rule 144, as currently in effect, a person (or
persons whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned shares for at
least one year, including an affiliate of us, would be entitled to sell, within
any three-month period, that number of shares that does not exceed the greater
of 1% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock (approximately 236,691
shares after this offering) or the average weekly trading volume in the common
stock during the four calendar weeks immediately preceding the date on which the
notice of sale is filed with the Commission, provided certain manner of sale and
notice requirements and requirements as to the availability of current public
information about us is satisfied. In addition, affiliates of ours 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. As defined
in Rule 144, an "affiliate" of an issuer is a person who, directly or
indirectly, through the use of one or more intermediaries controls, or is
controlled by, or is under common control with, such issuer. Under Rule 144(k),
a holder of "restricted securities" who is not deemed an affiliate of the issuer
and who has beneficially owned shares for at least two years would be entitled
to sell shares under Rule 144(k) without regard to the limitations described
above.
Effect of Substantial Sales on Market Price of Common Stock. We are unable
to estimate the number of shares that may be sold in the future by our existing
shareholders or the effect, if any, that such sales will have on the market
price of the common stock prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial
amounts of common stock, or the prospect of such sales, could adversely affect
the market price of the common stock.

LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the common stock offered hereby will be passed upon for
Globus by Sichenzia, Ross & Friedman LLP, New York, New York. Sichenzia, Ross &
Friedman LLP received 10,000 shares of common stock in connection with their
representation of Globus.

CHANGE IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On April 26, 2000, we dismissed our former independent auditor, James E.
Scheifley & Associates, P.C., based on our agreement that such action is in the
best interests of both firms. Effective as of that date, we have engaged KPMG
LLP as our new independent auditor. The decision to end our relationship with
Scheifley & Associates and to engage KPMG was recommended by our independent
Audit Committee and unanimously approved by our board of directors on March 26,
2000.
Over the course of Scheifley & Associates' engagement, we and Scheifley &
Associates had no disagreements on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure, auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Scheifley & Associates,
would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement
in connection with any report or opinion it might have issued. Furthermore,
neither of Scheifley & Associates' reports on our financial statements for the
past two years contained an adverse opinion, disclaimer of opinion, or
modification or qualification of opinion.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Globus Wireless Ltd. ("the Company" or "Globus") was incorporated under the laws
of the State of Nevada on June 10, 1987. The major activities of the Company
include the wholesale distribution of cellular phones and related accessories in
North America and developing advanced antenna designs that incorporate the
Company's proprietary technology.
1. Significant accounting policies:
(a) Basis of presentation and consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
(b) Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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.
(c) Inventory
Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost, determined on a first in,
first out basis, and net realizable value.
(d) Fixed assets
Fixed assets are recorded at cost. The carrying values of fixed assets
are reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts and
circumstances, both internally and externally, that may suggest
impairment. To date, no such impairment has been indicated.
Amortization is provided annually on a straight-line basis over the
assets' estimated useful lives as follows:
Computer equipment 5 years
Computer software 2 years
Furniture and fixtures 5 years
Leasehold improvements 5 years
Research and development equipment 5 years
(e) Website development
Website development costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed
as incurred. The costs of application and infrastructure development
incurred subsequent to the preliminary project stage, and that have
received management approval for further development, are capitalized
and amortized on the straight-line method over their estimated useful
life (estimated to be two years). Once the website is developed,
operating costs are expensed as incurred.
(f) Patents and trademarks
Patents and trademarks are recorded at cost. Amortization is provided
annually on a straight-line basis over five years.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant accounting policies (continued):
(g) Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair
value of assets acquired in business acquisitions accounted for under
the purchase method. Amortization is provided annually on a
straight-line basis over fifteen years.
(h) Revenue recognition
Revenue from the sale of product is recognized at the time of shipment
of inventory when the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred
to the customer. Revenue from engineering services is recognized
ratably over the contract period.
(i) Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes by the asset and liability
method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying
amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected
to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on
deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
When it is not considered to be more likely than not that a deferred
tax asset will be realized, a valuation allowance is provided for the
excess. Although the Company has consolidated loss carryforwards of
approximately $5,500,000 available, no amount has been reflected on
the balance sheet for deferred income taxes as any deferred income tax
asset has been fully offset by a valuation allowance.
(j) Translation of financial statements
The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the
United States dollar. The Company's subsidiaries operate in Canada and
their operations are conducted in Canadian currency. The method of
translation applied is as follows:
i) Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of
exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, being US $1.00 per
Cdn $1.5315 at October 31, 2000 (1999 - $1.5100).
ii) Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of
exchange in effect at the date the transaction occurred.
iii) Revenues and expenses are translated at the exchange rate in
effect at the transaction date.
iv) The net adjustment arising from the translation is included in
the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

1. Significant accounting policies (continued):
(k) Financial instruments
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
advances and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate
their carrying values due to the relatively short period to maturity
of these instruments. The fair values of loans payable to related
parties and amounts due to stockholders are not readily determinable
due to the related party nature of the amounts and the absence of an
active trading market for such instruments. The fair value of the
bridge financing payable approximates its carrying amount due to the
fixed interest rate of the payable closely approximating floating
rates at the financial statement date. The maximum credit risk
exposure for all financial assets is the carrying amount of that
asset.
(l) Loss per share
Basic loss per share has been calculated using the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the period. As the Company
has a loss in each of the periods presented, basic and diluted loss
per share is the same.
(m) Stock option plan
During the year ended October 31, 1997, the Company adopted a stock
option plan whereby directors, officers, consultants and employees of
the Company could be granted options to subscribe for unrestricted
stock of up to 500,000 of the common shares of the Company. Options
granted pursuant to this plan are not subject to a vesting period,
have exercise periods of not more than ten years from the date of
grant and have exercise prices not less than 85% of the fair market
value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant. No options
were outstanding under this plan during the years ended October 31,
2000 and 1999.
During the year ended October 31, 1999, the Board of Directors
approved a stock option plan whereby directors, officers, consultants
and employees of the Company could be granted options to subscribe for
restricted stock of the Company. Options granted pursuant to this plan
are not subject to a vesting period, have exercise periods of not more
than ten years from the date of grant, and have exercise prices not
less than 85% of the fair market value of the Company's common stock
at the date of grant. Options issued under this plan are disclosed in
note 10(c).
The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for stock options
granted to employees whereby compensation cost is recorded only to the
extent that the market price exceeds the exercise price at the date of
grant. Options granted to non-employees are accounted for at their
fair value at the date the related services are provided.
(n) Accounting standards change
In June, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities." In December, 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued SFAS No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements". Adoption of these statements is not expected to
materially impact the Company's results of operations or financial
position.

2. Business combination:
Effective September 1, 2000, Globus acquired Edge Continental, Inc.
("Edge") for a total purchase price of $1,545,262 in a transaction
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with
APB Opinion No. 16. Edge's principal activity is the wholesale distribution
of cellular phones and related accessories. Globus issued 300,000 shares of
its common stock with a fair value of $773,400, agreed to pay cash
consideration of $679,579 and paid direct acquisition costs of $92,283 for
all of the outstanding common stock of Edge. The common stock issued by
Globus was valued using the average of Globus' stock price on the date the
transaction was announced and the prices of the stock two days before and
after the announcement. The cash consideration is payable in increments of
$169,895 on October 31, 2000, December 31, 2000, March 31, 2001 and June
30, 2001. Outstanding cash consideration, aggregating $489,717, bears
interest at 6% per annum and is unsecured.
The purchase price allocation is based on management's estimate of the fair
values of Edge's tangible assets and liabilities.
The purchase consideration is summarized as follows:
Common stock $ 773,400
Cash 189,862

2. Business combination (continued):
The pro forma consolidated financial information for the years ended
October 31, 2000 and 1999, determined as if the acquisition of Edge had
occurred on November 1 of each year, would have resulted in the following:
2000 1999
---- ----
Sales $ 11,447,000 $ 6,339,000
Loss $ (973,000) $ (872,000)
Loss per share $ (0.08) $ (0.10)
This unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes
only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations in
future periods or results that would have been achieved had the Company and
Edge been combined during the specified periods.
3. Advances:
During 2000, the Company advanced funds to PCI Marketing and Communications
Inc. ("PCI"). The advances are non-interest bearing, are demand in nature
and are unsecured.
On September 7, 2000, the Company signed a letter of intent to acquire all
of the issued and outstanding shares of PCI in exchange for common shares
of the Company. The letter states the purchase price shall be CDN $0.35 per
share of PCI to a maximum purchase price of CDN $3,554,635. The proposed
transaction would be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting
with the Company identified as the acquirer. Implementation of the proposed
acquisition and share exchange is subject to shareholder and regulatory
approval which has not been received at January 18, 2001.

All of the above amounts are payable to related parties who are immediate
family members of the former shareholders of Edge, except for $59,794 of
the unsecured notes payable bearing interest at 20% which is payable to an
employee and an associate of the former shareholders of Edge.
During the year ended October 31, 2000, the Company paid interest of
$39,631 (1999 - $nil) on the loans payable to related parties.
9. Bridge financing payable:
Bridge financing payable bears interest at 12% per annum, is due December
31, 2000 and is convertible at the option of the lender into Series A
convertible preferred shares of the Company with a stated value of $500,000
and common share purchase warrants, the number of which is determined by
the following calculation:
$250,000 divided by the lessor of:
a) $4.00; or
b) the average trading price of the Company's common stock for the
five days immediately prior to conversion of the financing.
The preferred shares are entitled to a 12% annual cumulative dividend,
payable quarterly and are convertible into common shares of the Company
after April 28, 2001 determined by the following formula:
$500,000 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends divided by the lessor of:
a) Lessor of $4.00 or the average of the closing bid prices of the
Company's common stock during the five days immediately prior to
conversion; or
b) 80% of the average of the three lowest bid prices of the
Company's common stock for the twenty days immediately prior to
the conversion.
The preferred shares are convertible until December 29, 2003 at which time
any shares not converted shall automatically convert to common shares at a
price determined by the above formula.
The common share purchase warrants would entitle the lender to acquire
common shares at an exercise price as determined in the immediately above
formula and are exercisable for a period of five years from the date of
conversion.
The bridge financing payable contains a beneficial conversion feature as
the preferred shares are convertible for a price that is less than the
market price of the common shares at the date of issuance. Accordingly,
interest expense of $125,000 and a corresponding increase in additional
paid-in capital has been recorded in the statements of loss and
comprehensive loss and stockholders' equity.
The bridge financing payable was converted into Series A convertible
preferred shares of the Company subsequent to October 31, 2000 as disclosed
in note 13(a).

10. Capital stock (continued):
c) Stock options (continued)
The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its stock
options. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the
fair value at the grant date for its stock options under SFAS 123 the
Company's loss would have increased to the pro forma amounts indicated
below:
2000 1999

Pro forma (1,375,613) (958,137)
Loss per share
As reported $ (0.10) $ (0.10)
Pro forma (0.12) (0.11)
The weighted average fair value of $170,000 of the options granted
during the year ended October 31, 2000 was determined using the Black
Scholes method using a weighted average expected life of 11 months,
volatility factor of 55%, risk free rate of 5.5% and no assumed
dividend rate.
d) Warrants
During the year ended October 31, 2000, the Company entered into an
agreement to issue common share purchase warrants for services with
terms as disclosed in note 11(b). The fair value of these warrants of
$101,500 has been determined using the Black Scholes Method using an
expected life of six months, volatility factor of 55%, risk free rate
of 5.5% and no assumed dividend rate and has been included in the
determination of the loss for the year.
11. Commitments and contingencies:
a) Pursuant to a technology licensing agreement, the Company was required
to make monthly payments of $10,000 to an individual who is the
Company's founder, major stockholder and former President. Technology
license payments owing under the agreement amounted to approximately
$240,000 at October 31, 1999 and $360,000 at October 31, 2000.
During 1999, the Company launched a lawsuit against its former
President for breach of his fiduciary duties. As part of its claims
against its former President, the Company contends that its
obligations under the agreement have been eliminated. Consequently, no
accrual for technology license payments has been made as at October
31, 2000 and 1999.
In addition, the former President has amounts payable to him by the
Company for advances and unpaid salary unrelated to the above
technology license payments aggregating $51,843 (1999 - $51,843) which
have been included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
The former President has filed a counterclaim which seeks declaration
that the technology agreements are valid, payment of monies due and
owing plus unspecified damages. Management believes the counterclaim
is without merit. Any costs to the Company related to the claim and
counterclaim will be recognized when determinable.

11. Commitments and contingencies (continued):
b) On May 8, 2000, the Company signed a letter of agreement with Coleman
and Company Securities Inc. to secure investors for the Company. In
consideration for these services, the Company was required to:
i) pay a monthly cash fee of $5,000;
ii) issue, within 30 days, 100,000 share purchase warrants with an
exercise price of $4.00 per share, exercisable for a period of 5
years; and
iii) issue, within 30 days, an additional 100,000 share purchase
warrants with an exercise price of $5.00 per share, exercisable
for a period of 5 years, vesting 20,000 warrants every 30 days
from the execution of the letter.
On November 6, 2000, the Company elected to terminate the arrangement
and is no longer obligated to make the monthly payments outlined
above.
c) The Company is committed to payments under operating leases for
equipment, vehicles and buildings over the next five years as follows:
2001 - $198,431; 2002 - $183,175; 2003 - $39,545; 2004 - $3,226;
2005 - $2,552.
d) On October 18, 2000, the Company signed an agreement with a supplier
to purchase $40,199,200 of cellular phones and accessories by October
31, 2001, with up to $3,000,000 of trade financing available for
purchases made under this agreement from time to time. In conjunction
with the agreement, the Company was required to sign a promissory note
as collateral against any amounts owed by the Company up to a maximum
of $5,000,000. The note is exercisable thirty days after written
notice of default is provided to the Company. The note may be
converted into common stock of the Company at a conversion rate equal
to 75% of the average trading price of the Company's common stock for
the ten day period immediately prior to conversion of the note.
Included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities at October 31,
2000 is an amount payable to the supplier of $3,120,049 which is
secured by the above promissory note and a security agreement
providing a first priority interest in the inventory purchased under
this agreement and all proceeds from the sale thereof.
12. Related party transactions:
During 2000, the Company made building rental payments to a shareholder of
the Company totaling $42,900 (1999 - $27,204).
13. Subsequent events:

13. Subsequent events (continued):
The preferred shares are entitled to a 12% annual cumulative dividend,
payable quarterly and are convertible into common shares of the Company
after April 28, 2001 determined by the following formula:
$1,500,000 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends divided by the lessor of:
a) $1.8062; or
b) 80% of the average of the three lowest bid prices of the
Company's common stock for the twenty days immediately prior to
the conversion.
The preferred shares are convertible until December 29, 2003 at which time
any shares not converted shall automatically convert to common shares at a
price determined by the above formula.
The warrants have an exercise price of $1.9862 per common share and expire
on January 2, 2006.
The bridge financing contains a beneficial conversion feature as the Series
A convertible preferred shares are convertible at prices that are less than
market price at the date of issuance. Accordingly, interest expense of
$50,500 and a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital will be
recorded in the statements of loss and comprehensive loss and stockholders'
equity in the three month period ended January 31, 2001.
In addition, interest expense of $304,000, being the fair value of the
warrants granted, will be included in the loss for the six month period
ended April 30, 2001. The fair value of the warrants granted was determined
using the Black Scholes method using the five year life of the warrants,
volatility factor of 55%, risk free rate of 6.5% and no assumed dividend
rate.
(b) Subsequent to October 31, 2000 the Company issued 35,000 common
shares, with a fair market value of $84,603 to employees as settlement
of amounts due for wages.
(c) Subsequent to October 31, 2000, the Company received services related
to securing investors in the Company for which it agreed to issue
49,000 common shares at their fair market value of $78,094.
(d) On November 17, 2000, the Company signed a sixteen month building
lease which requires the following annual payments:
2001 $ 217,184
2002 98,720
(f) Subsequent to October 31, 2000, the Company issued 50,000 common
shares for a note receivable of $80,000 upon the exercise of employee
stock options. The note receivable does not bear interest, is due
within 364 days and is secured by the common shares issued.
(g) Subsequent to October 31, 2000, the Company granted 166,000 common
share options to employees. 150,000 of the options have an exercise
price of $1.707 per share, the remaining 16,000 options have an
exercise price of $1.8598 per share. All of the options expire on
January 4, 2004.

1. Significant accounting policies:
a) Basis of presentation:
The accompanying financial statements as at July 31, 2001 and for the three and
nine month periods then ended are unaudited; however, in the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) necessary for
the fair presentation of these unaudited financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have
been made. These financial statements have been prepared consistent with the
accounting policies described in the Company's annual report on Form 10K-SB
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended October 31,
2000 and should be read in conjunction therewith.
b) Use of estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures 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.
2. Business combination:
On December 31, 2000, the Company acquired PCI Marketing & Communications Inc.
("PCI") for a total purchase price of $2,330,635 in a transaction accounted for
under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with APB Opinion No. 16.
PCI's principal activity is the online retail sale of wireless communication
products. Pursuant to the terms of an amalgamation and re-organization
agreement, PCI amalgamated with 906548 Alberta Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company, and formed Globus Online Inc. The former stockholders of PCI
received 9,481,100 Class A non-voting exchangeable shares of Globus Online Inc.,
valued at $0.23366 per share, in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of
PCI on a one for one basis upon amalgamation. The former PCI stockholders may
exchange their Class A shares of Globus Online Inc. for common shares of the
Company, at the option of the holder, at any time for a period of three years
from the date of issuance. The number of common shares of the Company to be
exchanged for each Class A share of Globus Online Inc. will be based on the fair
market value of the Company's common shares at the date of exchange, such that
an equal value of the Company's common shares will be issued for the value of
the Class A shares exchanged, valued at $0.23366 per share. Any unexchanged
Class A shares of Globus Online Inc. outstanding at December 31, 2003 will be
automatically exchanged for common shares of the Company. Accordingly, the
acquisition has been recorded at $2,330,635 being the value of the 9,481,100
Class A shares of $2,215,354 plus direct acquisition costs of $115,281.
None of the Class A shares of Globus Online Inc. held by the former shareholders
of PCI have been exchanged for common shares of the Company at July 31, 2001.
During the nine month period ended July 31, 2001, amounts receivable from two of
the former shareholders of PCI of $106,816 were extinguished by the cancellation
of 457,142 Class A common shares of Globus Online Inc. held by the former
shareholders. Accordingly, the value of the remaining Class A shares issued of
$2,108,538 has been disclosed as a separate component of stockholders' equity
called "Exchangeable shares of subsidiary".
The actual number of common shares to be issued upon conversion of the Class A
non-voting exchangeable shares of Globus Online Inc. is currently being disputed
by the Company. A number of issues require resolution before the number of
shares issuable can be determined. Basic loss per share includes the effect of
the conversion of the exchangeable shares using the Company's common stock price
at July 31, 2001 they are exchangeable for no further consideration.

2. Business combination (continued):
The purchase price allocation is based on management's estimate of the fair
values of PCI's tangible assets and liabilities.
Allocation of the purchase price is as follows:
Cash $ 56,303
Accounts receivable 7,388
Inventory 4,257
Fixed assets 49,968
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (307,327)
Due to shareholders (5,778)
Due to Globus Wireless Ltd. (146,904)
Goodwill 2,672,728

Net assets acquired $ 2,330,635
===========
The purchase consideration is summarized as follows:
Exchangeable Class A shares of Globus Online Inc. $2,215,354
Acquisition costs 115,281
----------
Total purchase price $2,330,635
==========
The pro forma consolidated financial information for the nine month periods
ended July 31, 2001 and 2000, determined as if the acquisition of PCI had
occurred on November 1 of each period, would have resulted in the following:
2001 2000
---- ----
Revenues $ 19,519,545 $ 595,480
Loss $ (1,664,104) $ (1,274,429)
Basic and diluted loss per share $ (0.12) $ (0.10)
This unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only
and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations in future periods
or results that would have been achieved had the Company and PCI been combined
during the specified periods.
3. Bridge financing payable:
On November 21, 2000, the Company received bridge financing of $250,000 bearing
interest at 18% per annum, due December 21, 2000. On January 2, 2001, the
Company received an additional $750,000 which, along with the $250,000 referred
to above and $500,000 received prior to October 31, 2000, aggregating
$1,500,000, was converted into 1,500 Series A convertible preferred shares and
415,236 common share purchase warrants of the Company.
The Series A convertible preferred shares are entitled to a liquidation
preference amount of $1,000 per share and a 12% annual cumulative dividend,
calculated on the liquidation preference amount, payable quarterly and are
convertible into common shares of the Company after April 28, 2001 determined by
the following formula:
F-27
GLOBUS WIRELESS LTD.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
$ United States
Nine month period ended July 31, 2001
(Unaudited)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Bridge financing payable (continued):
$1,500,000 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends divided by the lessor of:
a) $1.8062; or
b) 80% of the average of the three lowest bid prices of the Company's common
stock for the twenty days immediately prior to the conversion.
The Series A convertible preferred shares are convertible until December 29,
2003 at which time any shares not converted shall automatically convert to
common shares at a price determined by the above formula.
The common share purchase warrants have an exercise price of $1.9862 per common
share and expire on January 2, 2006.
A deemed discount existed at the date of issue of the $250,000 of bridge
financing received on November 21, 2000, due to both the fair value of attached
warrants and the resultant beneficial conversion option. As this financing was
due December 21, 2000, the deemed debt discount, aggregating $132,900 was
charged against income during the period ended July 31, 2001. In conjunction
with the conversion of the bridge financing, warrants were issued on January 2,
2001 as an inducement to the holder of the $500,000 of bridge financing to
convert to preferred shares. The fair value of these warrants of $83,000 has
been recorded by a charge against income at the date of their issuance.
Consideration for the $750,000 of financing received on January 2, 2001
consisted of preferred shares and warrants. In accordance with EITF 98-5 and
EITF 00-27, with respect to the fair value assigned to the warrants, the deemed
discount of $124,500 is being recognized by a charge against equity, over the
period from January 2, 2001 to the forced conversion date into common shares of
December 29, 2003, and the deemed discount due to the beneficial conversion
option of $231,100 was amortized over the period from January 2, 2001 to the
first conversion date of April 28, 2001. The fair value of the warrants was
determined using the Black Scholes method using the following assumptions: a two
year expected life, volatility factor of 40%, risk free rate of 6.5%, and no
expected dividend yield.
4. Notes payable:
Notes payable are due September 26, 2001 and are secured by a pledge by the
Company, in the event of default, to issue an amount of its common stock with a
value of two times the sum of the outstanding principal and unpaid interest.
$300,000 and $175,000 of the notes payable bear interest at 30% and 24% per
annum respectively, payable monthly.
5. Convertible notes payable:
Convertible notes payable bear interest at 8% and are convertible into common
stock of the Company at the lesser of:
a) $0.48 per share for $800,000 of the notes payable, $0.448 per share for
$450,000 and $0.421 per share for the remaining $250,000; or
b) 80% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the Company's
common stock for the thirty days immediately prior to the conversion date.
$800,000 of the notes payable are due May 31, 2003, $450,000 are due on June 6,

5. Convertible notes payable (continued):
In conjunction with the notes, the Company also granted 600,000 common share
purchase warrants. 500,000 of the warrants have an exercise price of $1.78 and
the remaining 100,000 warrants have an exercise price of $1.15. 320,000 of the
warrants expire on May 31, 2004, 180,000 expire on June 6, 2004 and the
remaining 100,000 warrants expire on July 24, 2004.
The convertible notes payable contain a beneficial conversion feature as the
note holders were granted common share purchase warrants and the notes are
convertible into common shares at prices that are less than the market price at
the date of issuance, both of which result in the convertible notes payable
initially being recorded at a carrying amount which is less than their face
value. The note proceeds attributable to the warrants was estimated to be
$90,700 and has been recorded as a discount on the convertible notes payable.
The fair value of the note proceeds attributable to the warrants was determined
using the Black Scholes method using the following assumptions: the three year
life of the warrants, volatility factor of 74%, risk free rate of 6.5% and no
expected dividend yield. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion option
has been calculated as $470,700 which is being accreted over the term of the
debt in accordance with EITF 00-27. As a result, interest expense of $41,903,
discount on the convertible notes payable of $519,497 and a corresponding
increase in additional paid-in capital of $561,400 have been recorded in the
consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive
loss and stockholders' equity.

6. Issuance of common shares:
a) During the nine month period ended July 31, 2001, the Company issued the
following common shares:
i) 83,333 shares for notes receivable of $108,333 upon the exercise of
employee stock options. The notes receivable do not bear interest, are
due within 364 days and are secured by the common shares issued;
ii) 43,000 shares as prepayment for leasehold improvements to be
constructed for the Company; and
iii) 135,682 shares upon conversion of 60 Series A convertible preferred
shares and accrued unpaid dividends of $3,202.
b) During the year ended October 31, 2000, the Company issued 40,000 shares
for services to be received. The shares vest in increments of 10,000 shares
of which 20,000 had vested prior to October 31, 2000 and the remaining
20,000 vested during the nine month period ended July 31, 2001.
c) During the nine months ended July 31, 2001, pursuant to a resignation and
settlement agreement with one of the former shareholders of Edge
Continental Inc. ("Edge"), the Company cancelled 75,000 common shares that
were originally issued to acquire Edge. The original value of the cancelled
shares of $193,350, along with the cancellation of a note payable of
$162,233, were recorded as a reduction of goodwill related to the
acquisition with corresponding reductions of stockholders' equity and due
to stockholders.

7. Stock options:
The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting
for employee stock options whereby compensation cost is recorded only to the
extent that the market price exceeds the exercise price at the date of grant.
Options granted to non-employees are accounted for at their fair value.
During the nine month period ended July 31, 2001, the Company granted 204,333
common share options to employees with exercise prices fixed at 85% of the
market value of the Company's common shares at the grant date. Accordingly,
compensation cost of $95,318, representing the excess of the market price at the
grant date over the exercise price of the options granted, has been included in
the determination of the loss for the period.
8. Contingencies:
a) Pursuant to a technology licensing agreement, the Company is required to
make periodic payments to an individual who is the Company's founder, major
stockholder and former President. Technology license payments owing under
the agreement amounted to approximately $360,000 at October 31, 2000 and
$450,000 at July 31, 2001.
During 1999, the Company launched a lawsuit against its former President for
breach of his fiduciary duties. As part of its claims against its former
President, the Company contends that its obligations under the agreement have
been eliminated. Consequently, no accrual for technology license payments has
been made as at October 31, 2000 and April 30, 2001.
Subsequent to July 31, 2001, the Company reached a tentative non-cash settlement
with Company's former President. The terms of the settlement have not yet been
formalized.
b) As disclosed in note 11(d) of its October 31, 2000 audited financial
statements, the Company signed an agreement to purchase 730,000 cellular
phones with an aggregate cost of $40,199,200 by October 31, 2001. In
conjunction with the agreement, during the three months ended January 31,
2001, the Company received a non-refundable purchase rebate of $2,600,000.
The rebate was being recognized as a reduction of cost of sales over the
total purchase commitment of 730,000 phones. $634,767 of the rebate had
been recognized to January 31, 2001. During the six months ended July 31,
2001, the Company elected to discontinue the agreement and accordingly the
remaining non-refundable rebate has been recognized as a reduction to cost
of sales for the period.
c) On March 29, 2001, the Company signed a technology license agreement for
the rights to certain technology owned by a third party. The Company is
required to make royalty payments to the third party once sales of any
products based on the technology commences. At July 31, 2001, the Company
has advanced $275,000 as prepayment of the royalty payments which is
included in prepaid expenses on the consolidated balance sheet. Subsequent
to July 31, 2001, the Company advanced a further royalty prepayments of
$60,000. The advances are secured by a demand promissory note. Pursuant to
the agreement, the Company must make minimum royalty payments of $1,500,000
by July 31, 2002.

9. Subsequent events:
a) Subsequent to July 31, 2001, the Company received $250,000 for convertible
notes payable. The notes are due August 16, 2003, bear interest at 8% and
are convertible into common stock of the Company at the lesser of:
i) $0.457; or
ii) 80% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the
Company's common stock for the thirty days immediately prior to the
conversion date.
In conjunction with the notes, the Company also granted 100,000 common share
purchase warrants. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.15 and expire on
August 16, 2004.
b) Subsequent to July 31, 2001, the Company issued the following common
shares:
i) 262,617 shares to settle amounts accrued in accounts payable and
accrued liabilities at July 31, 2001 of $118,178;
ii) 147,429 shares upon conversion of 50 Series A convertible preferred
shares plus accrued unpaid dividends of $3,517;
iii) 625,000 shares for cash of $216,875; and
iv) 15,155 shares with a value of $6,570 for services.
10. Prepaid expenses:

value of $1,400,000 in exchange for trade credits to be used for future
advertising.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors of
PCI Marketing & Communications Inc. (operating as ShopWireless.Com)
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of PCI Marketing &
Communications Inc. (operating as ShopWireless.Com) as of December 31, 2000
(immediately prior to the amalgamation described in the notes to the financial
statements) and 1999 and the related consolidated statements of loss,
stockholders' (deficiency) equity and comprehensive loss and cash flows for the
years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of PCI Marketing &
Communications Inc. (operating as ShopWireless.Com) as of December 31, 2000 and
1999, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then
ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1(b) to
the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses
from operations and has a net working capital deficiency at December 31, 2000,
conditions that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in
Note 1(b). The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
$United States
Years ended December 31, 2000 (immediately prior to amalgamation) and 1999
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PCI Marketing & Communications Inc. (operating as ShopWireless.Com) (the
"Company" or "PCI") was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act
(Alberta) on October 16, 1997. The Company's main business activity includes the
marketing and sale of wireless communications products. On July 1, 1999, the
Company launched its website and switched from a catalogue retailer to an
on-line retailer.
Pursuant to an Amalgamation and Re-Organization Agreement ("the Agreement")
between the Company, Globus Wireless Ltd. ("Globus") and 906548 Alberta Ltd. (a
wholly owned subsidiary of Globus), the Company amalgamated with 906548 Alberta
Ltd. to form a new corporation named Globus Online Inc. ("Globus Online")
effective December 31, 2000. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company's
stockholders will exchange their Class A common shares for Class A shares of
Globus Online which, on completion of the Re-Organization, will become
exchangeable, on a one for one basis, for Globus common shares.
The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2000 and for the year
then ended reflect the Company's consolidated financial statements immediately
prior to the amalgamation.
1. Significant accounting policies
a) Basis of consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Shop Wireless Inc. and
Personal Communications Inc. All material inter-company balances and
transactions have been eliminated.
b) Basis of presentation
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites
States of America on the going concern basis, which presumes the
realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal
course of operations in the foreseeable future.
The Company has suffered losses from operations in each year of its
existence and has a working capital and a stockholders' deficiency at
December 31, 2000. The Company's ability to continue as a going
concern, is dependant on its ability to achieve profitable operations
and to obtain additional financing. Management plans to obtain
additional financing through the Company's transaction with Globus
(described above), and plans to achieve profitable operations through
increased future sales. The outcome of these matters cannot be
predicted at this time.
These consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any
adjustments which could be necessary should the Company be unable to
continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to realize its
assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course
of business and at amounts differing from those reflected in the
consolidated financial statements.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant accounting policies (continued)
c) Translation of financial statements The Company operates in Canada,
and its operations are conducted in Canadian currency. Thus, the
Company's functional currency is Canadian dollars. These consolidated
statements have been translated to United States dollars using the
following method:
i) Assets and liabilities are translated at the balance sheet date
exchange rate, being US $1.00 per Cdn. $1.5002 at December 31,
2000 and US $1.00 per Cdn. $1.4433 at December 31, 1999;
ii) Revenue and expenses are translated at the exchange rate in
effect at the transaction dates; and
iii) The net adjustment has been recorded as a separate component of
stockholders' equity called the "cumulative translation
adjustment" which is included in accumulated other comprehensive
income.
d) Financial instruments
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and
accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying
values due to the short term nature of these instruments. It is not
practical to determine a fair value for the advances from stockholders
and the advances from Globus Wireless Ltd. due to the related party
nature of the amounts and the lack of a ready market for such
financial instruments. The maximum credit risk exposure for all
financial assets is the carrying value of that asset.
e) Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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.
f) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consists of cash and short term investments
having terms to maturity of three months or less when acquired.
g) Inventories
Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost, determined on a
weighted average basis, and net realizable value.

h) Fixed assets
Fixed assets are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided over the
estimated useful lives of the assets at the following bases and annual
rates:
Asset Basis Rate
----- ----- ----
Computer hardware Declining balance 30%
Computer software Declining balance 100%
Leasehold improvements Straight line 20%
Office furniture and equipment Declining balance 20%
i) Internet website
Internet website includes costs of the application and infrastructure
development of the Company's website incurred subsequent to its
planning stage, and that have received management approval for further
development. Costs incurred in the planning stage and operating costs
are expensed as incurred. The capitalized internet website costs are
amortized on a straight-line basis over three years. Once the internet
website is developed, operating costs are expensed as incurred.
j) Deferred charges
Deferred charges consist of professional fees related to the
Agreement. Pursuant to the Amalgamation and Re-Organization Agreement,
these costs will be borne by the amalgamated entity, Globus Online.
Accordingly, these costs have been deferred in the Company's
consolidated financial statements in the consolidated balance sheet.
k) Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes by the asset and liability
method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying
amounts of existing assets and their respective tax bases, and
operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income
in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date. When it is not considered
more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be realized, a
valuation allowance is provided for the excess.

l) Revenue recognition
Revenue from on-line and catalog sales, including shipping and
handling costs billed to the customer, is recognized when the products
are shipped to customers, title has transferred to the customer and
the sales price is collectible. Provisions are recorded for returns
and concessions based on historical experience.
m) Cost of sales
Cost of sales includes costs to acquire and distribute products,
including shipping and handling costs.
n) Loss per share
Loss per share has been calculated using the weighted average number
of Class A common shares outstanding during the year. The weighted
average number of Class A common shares outstanding includes shares
related to stock options, issued with exercise prices below market
price at the grant date, from the date those options are granted. As
the effect of stock options exercised in the year is anti-dilutive,
diluted loss per share does not differ from basic loss per share.
o) Stock options
The Company applies Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion 25 in
accounting for stock options granted to directors, officers and
employees, whereby, compensation cost is recorded only to the extent
that the market price exceeds the exercise price at the date of grant.
Options to non-employees are accounted for at their fair value at the
date of provision of the related services as the options are earned.

outstanding options was 0.08 to 2.29 years.
The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its stock options
issued to directors, officers and employees and, accordingly, because
options issued to these individuals have been granted at the market price
on the issue date, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock
options in the consolidated financial statements.

5. Capital stock (continued)
Had the Company determined compensation costs based on the fair value of
its stock options at the grant date under SFAS No. 123, the Company's loss
for the year would have been increased to the pro forma amounts below:
2000 1999

Pro forma 508,768 296,342
Loss, per share, basic and
diluted
As reported $ 0.05 $ 0.03
Pro forma $ 0.05 $ 0.03
During the year ended December 31, 2000, 15,000 (1999 - 15,000) options
were issued to directors. The Company has applied APB Opinion No. 25 in
accounting for these options and, accordingly, no compensation cost has
been recorded. The fair value of the options, for the pro forma loss and
loss per share, has been determined under the Black Scholes Method using
the expected life of the options, a volatility of nil%, a risk-free rate of
4.67% (1999 - 4.67%) and no assumed dividends.
During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company issued 200,000
options, with an exercise price of Cdn. $0.25, and a right to purchase
100,000 Class A common shares of the Company at a price of $0.01 per share
to a non-employee for services. The compensation cost related to these
options has been estimated to be $35,000 and has been charged to
professional fees. The fair value of the options and stock right issued has
been recorded using the Black Scholes Method using the expected life of the
options, a volatility of 50%, a risk-free rate of 6.01% and no assumed
dividends.
c) Agent's option
The Company has an agent's option outstanding issued in the year ended
December 31, 1998, which allows the agent to purchase 400,000 Class A
shares at an exercise price of Cdn. $0.25 per share on or before June
7,2001. The agent's option was cancelled on December 31, 2000.
6. Subsequent event
On December 31, 2000, the Company's amalgamation with 906548 Alberta Ltd.
received shareholder approval and the Company's shareholders received
9,481,100 Class A shares of Globus Online. On January 26, 2001, Globus
Online's Re-Organization received shareholder approval and was finalized.
Consequently, Globus Online's Class A shares became exchangeable into
common shares of Globus Wireless Ltd.

7. Income taxes
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant
portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2000 and
1999 are presented below:
2000 1999
---- ----
Deferred tax assets (net):
Tax loss carryforwards expiring 2004 to 2007 $ 422,000 $ 215,000
Share issue costs, expiring 2002 10,000 16,000
Differences between the accounting and tax bases
of the Company's assets 7,000 14,000
--------- ---------
Gross deferred tax assets 439,000 245,000
Less valuation allowance (439,000) (245,000)
--------- ---------
Net deferred tax assets $ -- $ --
========= =========
The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependant upon the
generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the
temporary differences became deductible and prior to the expiry of the tax
loss carryforwards. In order to fully realize the deferred tax assets, the
Company will need to generate taxable income of approximately $866,000
prior to the expiration of the tax loss carryforwards in 2007. Based upon
the Company's history of tax losses, management is unable to assert that it
is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefits of the
deferred tax assets at December 31, 2000. Subsequently recognized tax
benefits relating to the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of
December 31, 2000 will be reported in the statement of earnings in the year
it is determined more likely than not that they will be realized.
8. Comparative figures

Auditors' Report to the stockholders
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Edge Continental Inc. as at
July 31, 2000 and 1999, and the statements of operations and deficit and cash
flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above, present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at July 31, 2000
and 1999 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then
ended, in accordance 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 shown in the financial statements,
the Company, to date, has cumulative losses since inception of $179,338. This
factor, among others, as discussed in Note 1 a), raises substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements
do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario on April
7, 1998 and was inactive until October 1, 1998. The major activity of the
Company is the wholesale distribution of cellular phones and related accessories
in North America.
1. Accounting Policies:
(a) Basis of Presentation
These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern
basis, which assumes the realization of assets and liquidation of
liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the
financial statements, to date, the Company has an accumulated deficit
of $179,338. This factor, among others, raises substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's
ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to
generate future profitable operations and to receive continued
financial support from its shareholders and other investors. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result
from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management of the company in
pursuing additional sources of financing (see note 9) and plans to
achieve profitable operations through increased future sales.
(b) Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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.
(c) Inventory
Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost, determined on an average
cost basis, and net realizable value.
(d) Capital assets
Capital assets are recorded at cost. Amortization is provided annually
on a straight-line basis over the assets' estimated useful lives as
follows:
Computer equipment 5 years
Computer software 3 years
Furniture and fixtures 5 years
Leasehold improvements 3 years

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Accounting Policies (continued):
(e) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized at the time of shipment of inventory when the
risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer.
(f) Income taxes
Under the asset and liability method, future tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying
amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or
substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in
the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The effect on future tax assets and liabilities
of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date. Although the Company has loss
carryforwards available, no amount has been reflected on the balance
sheet for deferred income taxes as any deferred income tax asset has
been fully offset by a valuation allowance.
(g) Translation of financial statements
These statements have been translated into United States dollars. The
method of translation applied is as follows:
i) Assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange in
effect at the balance sheet date, being US $1.00 per Cdn $1.4870
at July 31, 2000 and US $1.00 per Cdn $1.5063 at July 31, 1999.
ii) Revenues and expenses are translated at the exchange rate in
effect at the transaction date.
iii) The net adjustment arising from the translation is recorded in a
separate component of shareholders' deficiency called "Cumulative
translation adjustment".
(h) Financial instruments
The fair values of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and
accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the
relatively short period to maturity of these instruments. The fair
values of advances to/from shareholders and related parties and loans
payable to related parties are not determinable due to the related
party nature of the amounts and the absence of a trading market for
such instruments. The maximum credit risk exposure for all financial
assets is the carrying amount of that asset.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Basis of presentation:
This unaudited pro forma combined financial information has been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
Effective September 1, 2000, Globus acquired Edge for a total purchase
price of $1,545,262 in a transaction accounted for under the purchase
method. Globus issued 300,000 shares of its common stock with a fair value
of $773,400, agreed to pay cash consideration of $679,579 and paid direct
acquisition costs of $92,283 for all of the outstanding common stock of
Edge. The common stock issued by Globus was valued using Globus' average
stock price on the date the transaction was announced and the prices of the
stock two days before and after the announcement. The cash consideration is
payable in increments of $169,895 on October 31, 2000, December 31, 2000,
March 31, 2001 and June 30, 2001. Outstanding cash consideration bears
interest at 6% per annum and is unsecured.
On December 31, 2000, Globus acquired PCI for a total purchase price of
$2,330,635 in a transaction accounted for under the purchase method.
Pursuant to the terms of an amalgamation and re-organization agreement, PCI
amalgamated with 906548 Alberta Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Globus,
and formed Globus Online Inc. The former stockholders of PCI received
9,481,100 Class A non-voting exchangeable shares of Globus Online Inc.,
valued at $0.23366 per share, in exchange for all of the outstanding shares
of PCI on a one for one basis upon amalgamation. The former PCI
stockholders may exchange their Class A shares of Globus Online Inc. for
common shares of Globus, at the option of the holder, at any time for a
period of three years from the date of issuance. The number of common
shares of the Company to be exchanged for each Class A share of Globus
Online Inc. will be based on the market value of the Company's common
shares at the date of exchange, such that an equal value of the Company's
common shares will be issued for the value of the Class A shares exchanged,
valued at $0.23366 per share. Any unexchanged Class A shares of Globus
Online Inc. outstanding at December 31, 2003 will be automatically
exchanged for common shares of the Company. Accordingly, the acquisition
has been recorded at $2,330,635 being the cost of the 9,481,100 Class A
shares of $2,215,354 plus direct acquisition costs of $115,281.
The acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting
in accordance with APB Opinion No. 16. Under the purchase method of
accounting, the purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. Goodwill arising
on the acquisitions is amortized on a straight-line basis over fifteen
years.

2. Pro forma adjustments:
The pro forma combined statements of loss give effect to the following
transactions as if they had occurred on November 1, 1999:
a) To record the fair value of Edge inventory upon acquisition of Edge by
Globus.
b) To reflect amortization of goodwill arising upon the acquisition of
Edge.
c) To reflect interest expense on the unpaid cash consideration for the
acquisition of Edge.
d) To reflect amortization of goodwill arising upon the acquisition of
PCI.
3. Pro forma loss per share:
The unaudited pro forma combined loss per share is based upon the weighted
average number of outstanding shares of common stock of Globus during the
periods presented, plus the number of shares issued to consummate the
acquisitions of PCI and Edge as if the acquisitions occurred on November 1,
1999.
4. Adjustments made to historical information:
a) The Globus fiscal year statement of loss was derived from its audited
consolidated statement of loss for the year ended October 31, 2000.
The adjustments made involved deconsolidating Edge operations and
reversing the related consolidation adjusting entries as follows:

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
ITEM 24. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Subsection 1 of Section 78.7302 of Chapter 78 of the Nevada General
Corporation Law ("NGCL") provides that 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 in an action brought by or on behalf of
the corporation) if that person 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 or enterprise,
against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by that person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding, if that person acted in good faith and in a
manner which that person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the
best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceedings, 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, alone, does not
create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner
which the person 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, the person had reasonable cause to believe his action was unlawful.
Subsection 2 of Section 78.7502 of the NGCL provides that 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 brought by or on behalf
of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor because the person acted
in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses, including amounts
paid in settlement and attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by that
person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, if
the person acted in accordance with the standard set forth above, except that no
indemnification may be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which
such person shall have 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 such action or suit was brought or other court of competent
jurisdiction determines that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, such
person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the
court deems proper.
Section 78.751 of the NGCL provides that unless indemnification is ordered
by a court, the determination to provide indemnification must be made by the
stockholders, by a majority vote of a quorum of the board of directors who were
not parties to the action, suit or proceeding, or in specified circumstances by
independent legal counsel in a written opinion. In addition, the articles of
incorporation, bylaws or an agreement made by the corporation may provide for
the payment of the expenses of a director or officer of the expenses of
defending an action as incurred upon receipt of an undertaking to repay the
amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that
the person is not entitled to indemnification. Section 78.751 of the NGCL
further provides that, to the extent a director or officer of a corporation has
been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or
proceeding referred to in subsection (1) and (2), or in the defense of any
claim, issue or matter therein, that person shall be indemnified against
expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by that
person in connection therewith; that indemnification provided for by Section
78.751 of the NGCL shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which
the indemnified party may be entitled and that the scope of indemnification
shall continue as to directors, officers, employees or agents who have ceased to
hold such positions, and to their heirs, executors and administrators.
II-1
Finally, Section 78.752 of the NGCL provides that a corporation may
purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation against any liability asserted against him or incurred
by him in any such capacity or arising out of his status as such whether or not
the corporation would have the authority to indemnify him against such
liabilities and expenses.
The Registrant's bylaws provide for indemnification of officer, directors
and others to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.

ITEM 26. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
Private Placements of Common Stock, Preferred Stock and Warrants for Cash
We sold series A preferred convertible stock for cash at the prices and
during the periods provided as follows: during the first quarter of 2001, 1,500
shares at a price of $1,000 per share and warrants to purchase 415,236 shares at
an exercise price of $1.8062 per share were issued to seven purchasers. The
offers and sales of the above securities were deemed to be exempt from
registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Section 4(2) of Regulation
D promulgated thereunder. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in
offering the securities. The securities were offered to a limited number of
persons and transfers of the shares were restricted by Globus in accordance with
the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"). All
persons were accredited investors, represented that they were capable of
analyzing the merits and risks of their investment, acknowledged in writing that
they were acquiring the securities for investment and not with a view toward
distribution or resale and that they understood the speculative nature of their
investment. Proceeds from the above sales of common stock were used for working
capital and for general corporate purposes. All of the underlying common stock
issued in the above transactions is being registered in this registration
statement.
Sales of Debt and Warrants for Cash
We received $800,000 in exchange for four promissory notes. The notes are
secured by a pledge by Globus, in the event of default, to issue an amount of
our common stock with a value of two times any outstanding principal and unpaid
interest. $625,000 and $175,000 of the notes bear interest at 30% and 24% per
annum respectively, payable monthly. The offering of notes was exempt from
registration under Rule 506 of Regulation D and under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering
the securities.
II-2
A convertible note was issued to four investors during the second quarter
of 2001. The note was in the aggregate principal amount of $1,250,000. The
conversion price for the convertible debentures is the lesser of 85% of the
average of the three lowest closing prices for the common stock for the 30
trading days prior to but not including the day of closing, or 85% percent of
the average of the three lowest closing prices for the common stock for the 30
trading days prior to but not including the conversion date. The maximum number
of shares of common stock that any subscriber or group of affiliated subscribers
may own after conversion at any given time is 4.99%. The number of shares of
common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible debentures is 2,604,166
based on a conversion price of $0.177 per share. In addition, 500,000 shares
underlying warrants are being registered. These warrants, which expire May 31,
2006, have an exercise price of $1.78.
The offering of convertible debentures and warrants was exempt from
registration under Rule 506 of Regulation D and under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering
the securities. The securities were offered to a limited number of persons, and
transfers of the shares were restricted by Globus in accordance with the
requirements of the Securities Act. All persons were accredited investors,

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement during any
period in which offers or sales are being made:
(i) to include any Prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;
(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 thereof) which, individually, or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering
range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) ((S)230.424(b) of this Chapter) if,
in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more
than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in
the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
Registration Statement; and
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement of
any material change to such information in the Registration Statement.
(2) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of
the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of this
offering.
(3) To provide to the Underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting
agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as
required by the Underwriter to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
each such post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as shall
be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and this offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(5) That, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising from the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
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 such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant 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.
(6) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
the information omitted from the form of Prospectus filed as part of this
Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
Prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or Rule
497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration
Statement as of the time it was declared effective.

We have examined the originals, photocopies, certified copies or other
evidence of such records of the Company, certificates of officers of the Company
and public officials, and other documents as we have deemed relevant and
