You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus before making an investment decision. AS AN EARLY-STAGE COMPANY, OUR LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY IS NOT A RELIABLE PREDICTOR OF OUR FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS AND WE FACE MANY RISKS INCLUDING LIQUIDITY PROBLEMS, DELAYS AND UNCERTAINTIES. We were organized in October 1997 and did not commence active operations until May 1998. In addition, during 1998, we shifted the focus of our business from production and sale of facsimile-based products to the development of advanced products based upon our proprietary technology. More recently we have determined to focus on the commercial exploitation of our technology for applications and solutions in the area of data compression and transmission. Because our business has significantly changed and much of our historical operating results do not reflect our current operations, we have a limited relevant operating history upon which you can evaluate our performance and prospects. Additionally, we face many of the risks, expenses, delays, problems and uncertainties encountered by early-stage companies in rapidly evolving markets, including generating and maintaining sufficient liquidity for operating and capital expenses as well as identifying, developing and marketing commercially viable products on a timely basis, which could materially adversely affect our business and results of operations. WE HAVE INCURRED LOSSES SINCE INCEPTION AND WE EXPECT TO INCUR LOSSES IN THE FUTURE. We have incurred significant net losses in each fiscal year since our inception and expect losses to continue. During the year ended December 31, 2000, we had a net loss of approximately $4.5 million and for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, we had a net loss of approximately $2.7 million. We cannot assure you that our future operations will ever become profitable. OUR INDEPENDENT AUDITORS HAVE EXPRESSED SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN. Primarily as a result of our recurring losses, our independent auditors qualified their opinion on our 2000 financial statements and in the two preceding years to include an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. BECAUSE OUR OPERATIONS DO NOT GENERATE CASH FLOW, IF WE ARE UNABLE TO OBTAIN FINANCING WHEN NEEDED, WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO CURTAIL OR CEASE OPERATIONS. Our operating requirements have been and will continue to be significant. Our operations do not currently generate positive cash flow. Based upon current estimates, we believe that we will be able to fund our operating activities and capital requirements only through the end of the first fiscal quarter of 2002. Unanticipated changes in economic conditions or other unforeseen circumstances may cause us to expend our cash and cash equivalents in a shorter period of time, in which case we may be required to seek additional financing sooner in order to fund our capital and operating activities. We do not have any current arrangements with respect to other potential sources of additional financing. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we are unable to obtain financing when needed, we may be required to curtail or cease operations. 6 OUR FUTURE REVENUE GROWTH DEPENDS SUBSTANTIALLY ON OUR ABILITY TO SUCCESSFULLY IDENTIFY APPLICATIONS OR PRODUCTS FOR WHICH OUR TECHNOLOGY MAY BE DEVELOPED AND MARKETED. If we are unable to identify applications or products that will achieve widespread commercial acceptance or adapt or enhance our technology for these applications or products we will be unable to expand the market for our technology. Adapting and enhancing technology as complex as ours will be subject to risks of unanticipated technical or other problems and possible insufficiency of funds which could result in a delay of introduction or abandonment of the proposed application or product. We cannot assure you that we will be able to identify applications or products, adapt our technology for specific applications or products on a timely basis or be able to achieve significant market acceptance of our technology. WE FACE INTENSE COMPETITION IN THE MARKETS FOR OUR TECHNOLOGY, WHICH COULD RESULT IN PRICE REDUCTIONS, LOWER GROSS MARGINS OR LOSS OF OUR MARKET SHARE. The markets for our technology are characterized by rapidly changing technological and industry standards. As a result, to compete effectively, companies must be able to develop new products, technologies and applications to respond to these changes. Because we have limited resources, we may not be able to develop new products, technologies and applications or otherwise compete successfully. Many of our competitors have substantially greater financial, technical, personnel, and other resources than we do and have established reputations for success in the development, licensing, and sale of their products and technology. Additionally, future technologies or products could render our technology obsolete or less marketable. As a result of our limited resources, significant competition and the nature of the markets for our technology, we may not be able to compete successfully. WE HAVE LIMITED MARKETING CAPABILITIES AND WILL BE DEPENDENT UPON ARRANGEMENTS WITH THIRD-PARTY SOLUTION PROVIDERS TO MARKET AND DISTRIBUTE OUR TECHNOLOGY. We have limited marketing experience, as well as limited financial, personnel and other resources, to undertake extensive marketing activities. As a result, we rely to a large extent on arrangements with third party solution providers for the marketing and distribution of our technology. We have only recently entered into marketing arrangements with a limited number of third-party solution providers and other strategic partners and, accordingly, have not developed any meaningful sales through any of these marketing arrangements. Our prospects will depend on our ability to develop and maintain strategic relationships with additional solution providers and upon the marketing and distribution efforts of these solution providers. Additionally, the time and resources devoted to these activities generally will be contributed to and controlled by these third parties and not by us. A decline in the financial prospects of a third-party solution provider or other strategic partner with whom we develop a significant marketing relationship could adversely affect our sales efforts. THE MAJORITY OF OUR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES ARE CONDUCTED IN ISRAEL, WHICH MAY BE SUBJECT TO ECONOMIC, MILITARY AND POLITICAL INSTABILITY. Our principal research and development facility is located in Beer Sheva, Israel. We are, therefore, directly influenced by the economic, political and military conditions in Israel and the Middle East. Any major hostilities involving Israel, the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners or a significant downturn in the economic or financial condition of Israel could have a material adverse effect on our operations. 7 MOST OF OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ARE CURRENTLY ELIGIBLE FOR SALE AND COULD BE SOLD IN THE MARKET IN THE NEAR FUTURE, WHICH COULD DEPRESS OUR STOCK PRICE. We currently have 20,345,924 shares of common stock outstanding, 12,358,920 of which are currently freely tradeable without restriction under the Securities Act of 1933. Of the remaining 7,987,004 shares outstanding, 2,412,004 shares have been previously registered for resale and 4,000,000 shares are registered for resale under this prospectus. The balance of shares outstanding are restricted securities, however, substantially all of these restricted securities have been held for more than two years and are available for resale pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. The sale of a significant number of shares of common stock could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Moreover, as these shares are sold, the market price could drop significantly if the holders of these restricted shares sell them or if the market perceives that the holders intend to sell these shares. THE SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF OUTSTANDING OPTIONS AND WARRANTS COULD DEPRESS THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND COULD INTERFERE WITH OUR ABILITY TO RAISE CAPITAL. We currently have outstanding options and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 6,007,524 shares of our common stock, at exercise prices ranging from $.75 to $4.00 per share. To the extent that the outstanding options and warrants are exercised, dilution to the percentage of ownership of our stockholders will occur and any sales in the public market of our common stock underlying those options and warrants may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock. Moreover, the terms upon which we will be able to obtain additional equity capital may be adversely affected since the holders of outstanding options and warrants can be expected to exercise them when we would, in all likelihood, be able to obtain any needed capital on terms more favorable to us than those provided in the outstanding options and warrants. OUR COMMON STOCK IS SUBJECT TO THE SEC'S PENNY STOCK RULES WHICH CAN EFFECT THE MARKET LIQUIDITY AND THE ABILITY OF PURCHASERS TO SELL OUR COMMON STOCK. At any time while our common stock is not listed on the Nasdaq National or SmallCap markets or a national securities exchange and the trading price of our common stock is below $5.00 per share, trading in our common stock will be subject to the SEC's penny stock rules, which severely limit the market liquidity of our common stock and the ability of purchasers to sell their shares. As a result, a purchaser of our common stock could find it more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock. 8 FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this prospectus, including without limitation, statements regarding our expectations of future sales revenue, financial position, business strategy, projected costs and plans, objectives of our management for future operations and financial data, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "propose," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "believe," or "continue" or the negative thereof or variations thereon or similar terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that such expectations will prove to have been correct. These statements involve certain known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from our expectations. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations are disclosed under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this prospectus, including without limitation, in conjunction with the forward-looking statements included in this prospectus. Also, subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements. We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus. You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus. We have not, nor has the selling stockholder, authorized any other person to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. We are not, nor is the selling stockholder, making any offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer and sale is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus is only accurate as of the date on the front of this prospectus. Our business, financial condition, results of operation and prospects may have changed since that date. USE OF PROCEEDS We will not receive any proceeds from the sale by the selling stockholder of any of its shares of common stock, which shares may be sold in accordance with this prospectus. We have agreed to bear the expenses in connection with registration of the common stock being offered by the selling stockholder under this prospectus. 9 MARKET PRICE OF AND DIVIDENDS ON OUR COMMON STOCK Our common stock has been quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "ITAC.OB" since August 19, 1999. From May 28, 1998 to August 19, 1999, our common stock was quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "ZFAX.OB." The following table shows the high and low bid prices of our common stock as reported by the OTC Bulletin Board for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1999 and 2000 and for the quarterly periods of fiscal 2001 through December 20, 2001: HIGH LOW ---- --- 1999 First Quarter ........................................... 4.47 3.81 Second Quarter .......................................... 4.19 3.00 Third Quarter ........................................... 3.80 1.88 Fourth Quarter .......................................... 3.44 1.75 2000 First Quarter ........................................... 6.25 2.25 Second Quarter .......................................... 4.88 2.38 Third Quarter ........................................... 4.31 4.00 Fourth Quarter .......................................... 3.75 .78 2001 First Quarter ........................................... 1.38 .30 Second Quarter .......................................... .58 .13 Third Quarter ........................................... .28 .14 Fourth Quarter (through December 20, 2001) .............. .62 .09 The OTC Bulletin Board is a more limited trading market than the Nasdaq SmallCap or Nasdaq National Markets, and timely, accurate quotations of the price of our common stock may not always be available. You may expect trading volume to be low in such a market. Consequently, the activity of only a few shares may affect the market and may result in wide swings in price and in volume. Additionally, the foregoing quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual retail transactions. The trading price of our common stock may be highly volatile as a result of factors specific to us or applicable to our market and industry in general. These factors, include: o variations in our annual or quarterly financial results or those of our competitors; o changes by financial research analysts in their recommendations or estimates of our earnings; o conditions in the economy in general or in the information technology service sector in particular; and o announcements or technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors. In addition, the stock market, particularly the Nasdaq SmallCap Market and the OTC Bulletin Board, has recently been subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has significantly affected the market prices of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, some companies have been sued by their stockholders. If we were sued, 10 it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources, which could adversely affect our business. On December 20, 2001, the last reported sale price of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board was $.14 per share. As of December 20, 2001, there were approximately 78 record owners of our common stock. We believe that there are many beneficial owners of our common stock whose shares are held in "street name". We have never declared and do not anticipate declaring or paying any dividends on our common stock in the near future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, that may be generated from our operations to finance our future operations and any possible expansion. Any decision as to the future payment of dividends will depend on our results of operations and financial position and such other factors as our board of directors in its discretion deems relevant. 11 SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA The following selected financial data are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and you should read them in conjunction with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section of this prospectus and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to those financial statements included in and made part of this prospectus.

Our revenues were $137,800 for fiscal 1998, $137,400 for fiscal 1999, $794,500 for fiscal 2000 and $125,800 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Our revenues in fiscal 1998 and 1999 reflect the transition of our business from the production and sale of facsimile storage and retrieval products to development of software products based upon our core technology. Revenues from the licensing of our technology increased by approximately 51% during fiscal 1999 to $73,400, representing approximately 53.4% of our total revenues for fiscal 1999. The remainder of our revenues for each of fiscal 1998 and 1999 were derived from the sale from our inventory of products and component parts relating to our discontinued facsimile-based business. Through the second quarter of fiscal 2000, primarily as a result of our limited financial resources and personnel available for marketing activities, we made limited progress in establishing further licensing arrangements for our technology. The majority of our revenues during this time were generated primarily from a consulting arrangement and the sale of discontinued hardware products. This consulting project was a one-time service performed for one of our clients and was completed during the second quarter of fiscal 2000. Consulting fees from this project accounted for approximately 42% of our total revenues for fiscal 2000. While we may perform certain consulting, maintenance and other support services for prospective customers that license our technology or software products, for which we anticipate generating additional fees, we do not anticipate any meaningful portion of our revenues in the future to be derived from these consulting and related services. Beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2000, as a result of increased resources and a shift of personnel to marketing activities, we entered into two licensing arrangements for our technology with third-party enterprises. For fiscal 2000, our licensing revenues were $94,000. Although this represented an increase of approximately 28% from fiscal 1999, licensing revenues accounted for only approximately 12% of our total revenues in fiscal 2000. Sales of certain test platforms constructed principally from component parts from our discontinued facsimile business, the production and sale of which has since been discontinued, together with sales of other products from our inventory of discontinued facsimile business, accounted in the aggregate for approximately 46% of our total revenues for fiscal 2000. As a result of our continuing shift in business strategy toward licensing of our technology and software applications combined with the depletion of the remaining inventory of hardware and other non-proprietary computer processing equipment from our discontinued facsimile business, our sales of products and components decreased to $94,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, representing an approximate 66.8% decrease from the prior comparable period. Further, as a result of reduced marketing resources resulting in our inability obtain additional customers for our Developer's Edition and Enterprise Edition SDK products as well as extended sales cycles for implementation of our technology and related products to existing customers, royalties from licensing arrangements deceased to $31,400 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, representing an approximate 61.3% decrease in such revenues from the prior comparable period. 13 In March 2001, we launched a suite of INTACTA.CODE software development kits, or SDK's, for integration by software developers in applications requiring secure transmission and storage of compressed data, and, in October 2001, we launched a suite of data communications software products addressing security features in connection with new privacy requirements under HIPAA. Although the release of our SDK products generated increased activity to our web site and initiated downloads of our INTACTA.CODE Trial Version SDK, we have not yet received any meaningful revenues from this product line or from our data communications software products addressing HIPAA regulations. Our sales cycle for the licensing of our technology and related software products which commences at the time a prospective customer demonstrates an interest in licensing the technology or product and ends upon the delivery and installation of the technology or product will vary depending upon the customer and the product sought to be licensed. Sales of products such as the INTACTA.CODE SDK Developer's Edition and the INTACTA Express-Healthcare Edition may have shorter sales cycles resulting from their specific utilities wherein sales cycles for products such as INTACTA.CODE SDK Enterprise Edition and INTACTA Bridgeway-Healthcare Edition could extend for periods of nine months or more, depending on the time required by the customer to evaluate the utility of the product to its operations. Our independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their report on our financial statements for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000, stating that recurring losses from operations and an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2000 of $22,222,400 raise substantial doubt our ability to continue as a going concern. Our accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2001 was $24,945,100. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Nine months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2000 Revenues. Revenues decreased by $568,900 or 81.9% to $125,800 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, from $694,700 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. This decrease was primarily attributable to (i) consulting revenue in the nine months ended September 20, 2000 of $329,300 from a one-time consulting project completed in the second quarter of fiscal 2000, (ii) reduced royalty revenues from existing licensing arrangements from $81,100 to $31,400 and (iii) more limited sales of products and components from our discontinued facsimile-based business. Cost of products and components. Cost of products and components was $24,100 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, a decrease of $84,100, or 77.7%, compared to $108,200 of such costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The decrease in such costs was primarily attributable to the corresponding reduction in sales of discontinued products and components. Consulting fees expense. We did not incur any consulting fees expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, compared to $113,900 of such consulting fees expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 resulting from the consulting project we performed in the second quarter of fiscal 2000. Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses increased by $129,700 or 15.8% to $950,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, from $820,300 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The increase was primarily attributable to the reclassification of $108,900 of these costs as consulting fees expense and, to a lesser extent, from personnel, office and other support 14 facility costs related to research and development at our Atlanta headquarters and additional research and development support at our Israel facility in connection with the development of our new SDK and data communications software products. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in non-cash charges to $141,900 for the first nine months of fiscal 2001 from $271,200 for the first nine months of fiscal 2000, to account for options previously granted below fair market value as compensation to employees and consultants. Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $207,200 or 24.5%, to $637,400 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, from $844,600 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The decrease was primarily attributable to the reduction of expenses related to marketing materials, as well as consultants and other outside services, and the reduction in non-cash charges to $5,900 for the first nine months of fiscal 2001 from $61,800 for the first nine months of fiscal 2000, to account for options previously granted below fair market value as compensation to employees and consultants. General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased by $262,400 or 16.7% to $1,304,900 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, from $1,567,300 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. This decrease was attributable to the reduction in non-cash charges to $26,300 for the first nine months of fiscal 2001 from $534,500 for the first nine months of fiscal 2000 to account for options previously granted below fair market value as compensation to employees and consultants. The foregoing decrease in expenses was partially offset by (i) additional salaries and costs related to an increase in our administrative staff, and (ii) third-party consulting and professional fees in connection with business strategy development and management and operation of our business. Interest income (expense), net. Net interest income was $79,200 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to ($245,900) of net interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The net increase was primarily the result of interest earned during fiscal 2001 on cash balances resulting from funds received from our October 2000 private placement, as compared to interest expense related to debt incurred in our May and June 2000 bridge loan financing and accretion of related warrants recognized during fiscal 2000. Net loss. As a result, our net loss decreased by $283,700 or 9.4% to $2,722,700, or $(0.13) per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, as compared to our net loss of $3,006,400, or $(0.17) per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Year ended December 31, 2000 compared to year ended December 31, 1999 Revenues. Our revenues increased by $657,100 or 478.2% to $794,500 for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $137,400 for the year ended December 31, 1999. This increase was primarily attributable to (i) consulting fees which we earned in our second quarter of fiscal 2000 relating to a custom programming project performed for an existing client, and (ii) sales of products and components which increased by approximately 468% from the prior comparable period primarily resulting from the sale of software development test platforms and surplus memory chip inventory. In addition, revenues from licensing arrangements increased by 28.1% to $94,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 from $73,400 for the prior comparable period. Cost of products and components. Cost of products and components was $303,600 for the year ended December 31, 2000, representing an increase of $213,100 or 235.5% compared to $90,500 of such costs for the year ended December 31, 1999. The increase in such costs was attributable to (i) purchase 15 costs of components consumed in the manufacture of test platforms sold, (ii) sales of surplus non-proprietary computer processing chips held in inventory and sold in the first quarter of 2000, and (iii) a write-off of obsolete inventory related to discontinued hardware products. Consulting fees expense: We incurred consulting fees expense of $113,900 for the year ended December 31, 2000, resulting from a consulting project we performed in the second quarter of fiscal 2000. We did not incur any of such costs for the year ended December 31, 1999. Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses increased by $85,600 or 8.2% to $1,133,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $1,047,400 for the year ended December 31, 1999. The increase was attributable to (i) an increase in material costs consumed in operations as well as an increase in personnel and related office and other support facility costs related to research and development, and (ii), an increase in non-cash charges to $361,600 for fiscal 2000 from $222,400 for 1999 to account for options previously granted below fair market value as compensation to employees and consultants. This increase was partially offset by the reclassification of $108,900 of such costs as consulting fees expense. Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses increased by $1,068,900 or 944.3% to $1,182,100 for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $113,200 for the year ended December 31, 1999. The increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily attributable to (i) increased salaries and related costs resulting from the hiring of new personnel in connection with our decision to renew the focus on marketing our Intacta technology, (ii) costs for the development of marketing materials and related market research, and (iii) a non-cash charge of $69,600 for fiscal 2000 to account for options previously granted below fair-market value as compensation to certain employees and consultants. No similar charge was required for fiscal 1999. General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased by $313,300 or $12.0% to $2,306,500 for the year ended December 31, 2000, from $2,619,800 for the year ended December 31, 1999. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was attributable to the reduction of the non-cash stock option charge to $571,500 for fiscal 2000 from $1,016,000 for fiscal 1999, partially offset by administrative costs associated with our bridge loan financing and private placement during 2000. Interest income (expense), net. Net interest expense was $(298,900) for the year ended December 31, 2000 compared to $95,300 of net interest income for the year ended December 31, 1999, primarily as a result of the short-term debt incurred in the second and third quarters of 2000 in connection with our bridge financing. Net loss. As a result, our net loss increased by $933,600 or 25.8 % to $4,551,200, or $(0.25) per share, for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared to a net loss of $3,617,600, or $(0.20) per share, for the year ended December 31, 1999. Year ended December 31, 1999 compared to year ended December 31, 1998 Revenues. Our revenues were relatively unchanged at $137,400 for the year ended December 31, 1999, compared to $137,800 for the year ended December 31, 1998. Sales of products and components decreased by 28.3% to $64,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999 compared to $89,300 for the year ended December 31, 1998. The decrease in product and component sales was primarily attributable to our discontinuing sales and marketing efforts of our two facsimile based products in the early part of fiscal 1998. This reduction was partially offset by sales of excess non-proprietary computer processing 16 chips from our inventory. Revenues from licensing arrangements, however, increased by 51.3% to $73,400 for the year ended December 31, 1999, compared to $48,500 for the year ended December 31, 1998. This increase was attributable to increased royalties from a licensing arrangement with a software developer for our technology. Cost of products and components. Cost of products and components decreased by $245,800 or 73.1% to $90,500 for the year ended December 31, 1999, compared to $336,300 for the year ended December 31, 1998. This decrease was primarily attributable to reduced product costs and certain inventory write-offs resulting from our discontinuing sales of our facsimile based products in 1998. Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses increased by $143,900 or 15.9% to $1,047,400 for the year ended December 31, 1999, compared to $903,500 for the year ended December 31, 1998. The increase in expenses was primarily attributable to an increase in non-cash charges to $222,400 for fiscal 1999 from $129,700 for fiscal 1998 to account for options previously granted below fair market value as compensation to employees and consultants. Sales and marketing expenses. Sales and marketing expenses remained nearly unchanged at $113,200 for the year ended December 31, 1999, compared to $113,100 for the year ended December 31, 1998. We had substantially reduced our sales and marketing staff in early 1998 in connection with our discontinuing sales of our facsimile based products and our focusing on development of new product applications for our technology. The majority of our sales and marketing costs for each of 1999 and 1998 were from third party design and marketing companies we retained to assist us in developing our business strategy and launching new products. General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by $920,400 or 54.2% to $2,619,800 for the year ended December 31, 1999, compared to $1,699,400 for the year ended December 31, 1998. This increase was attributable to (i) additional salaries and costs related to an increased administrative staff; (ii) third party consulting and professional fees in connection with business strategy development and management and operation of our business; and (iii) an increase in non-cash charges to $1,016,000 for fiscal 1999 from $632,100 for fiscal 1998 to account for options previously granted below fair-market value as compensation to several employees. Interest income (expense), net. We had net interest income of $95,300 for the year ended December 31, 1999 primarily from interest on funds received in connection with a private placement of our securities in December 1998. We had net interest expense of $(210,000) for the year ended December 31, 1998, primarily from advances from the parent company of the subsidiaries we acquired in May 1998, which advances were extinguished prior to our acquisition of these subsidiaries in May 1998. Net loss. As a result, our net loss increased by 15.0% to $3,617,600 or $(0.20) per share for the year ended December 31, 1999, compared to a net loss of $3,145,800 or $(0.19) per share for the year ended December 31, 1998. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Since inception, we have financed our operating costs and capital requirements primarily through: o the private sale of our capital stock to various parties; o non-interest-bearing loans from Valor Invest Limited, an affiliate of our Chairman of the Board, substantially all of which was subsequently repaid or converted into equity; and 17 o cash acquired in connection with the acquisition of our subsidiaries. In April and May 1998, we sold, in two private placements, an aggregate of 150,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $3.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $450,000. In December 1998, we sold, in a private placement, 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price per share of $4.00 for gross proceeds of $4,000,000. From December 1997 through December 31, 1998, Valor made several non-interest-bearing loans to us in the aggregate amount of $2,172,000. During the first six months of 1999, we repaid $1,131,000 of these loans. In June 1999, we converted $952,000 of these loans into 238,000 shares of our common stock at the rate of $4.00 per share. At December 31, 1999, a balance of $89,000 of loans from Valor remained outstanding. During the first half of 2000, Valor made an additional $704,500 of non-interest-bearing loans to us, of which we subsequently repaid $312,000. In May 2000, Valor converted $250,000 of the unpaid balance of these loans into 2.5 units identical to the units offered by us in our bridge financing described immediately below. Valor also agreed to subordinate the balance of its loans to us to our repayment of the bridge notes issued in our bridge financing. As discussed below, Valor converted the principal amount of the notes included in the units it acquired in May 2000 as well as a substantial portion of its subordinated loans into units offered in our October 2000 private placement. In May and June 2000, we completed a bridge financing, in which we issued 25 units, each unit consisting of a $100,000 principal amount bridge note and bridge warrants to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.50 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $2,500,000. In October 2000, we completed a private placement in which we issued an aggregate of 2,333,310 units consisting of one share of our common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.50, for aggregate gross proceeds of $7,000,000. Approximately $2,267,000 of the gross proceeds received in the private placement represented the conversion of the principal and accrued interest of a majority of the outstanding bridge notes into units in the private placement. A portion of the proceeds of the private placement was used to repay the principal and accrued interest on the balance of outstanding bridge notes not converted into units in the private placement. After deduction of cash commissions and related expenses as well as the conversion of the bridge notes, we received approximately $3,522,000 in net proceeds from the private placement. In connection with the private placement, Valor converted the principal amount of its notes into units in the private placement. Valor also converted a substantial portion of its outstanding subordinated loans into units in the private placement. At September 30, 2001 we had $1,313,400 in cash and cash equivalents, the majority of which represented the balance of proceeds remaining from our October 2000 private placement. At September 30, 2001, we had working capital of $1,107,200 as compared to working capital of $3,641,500 at December 31, 2000. Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 was $2,539,600, primarily consisting of our net loss and an increase of $106,600 in other current assets and partially offset by $174,100 of non-cash compensation expense, a decrease in accounts receivable of $57,000 and an increase in accounts payable of $89,100. Cash used in investing activities was $51,500. As a result, we had a net decrease of $2,591,100 in cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended September 30, 2001. 18 Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $1,952,900, primarily consisting of our net loss of $3,006,400 and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of an aggregate of $139,900, which was partially offset by $1,074,600 of non-cash compensation expense and accretion of warrants and a decrease in inventory of $53,200. Cash used in investing activities was $54,700. Cash provided by financing activities was $2,802,100 representing the proceeds from our bridge financing in May and June 2000 and the net of non-interest bearing loans from Valor. As a result, we had a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $794,500 during the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2000 was $3,158,600, primarily consisting of our net loss and a decrease of $411,000 in accounts payable, partially offset by $1,002,700 of non-cash compensation expense, and the interest accretion of common stock warrants related to our bridge financing of $276,200, and the write-off of obsolete inventory related to facsimile-based products of $222,900. Cash used in investing activities was $61,300. Cash provided by financing activities was $6,207,000 primarily as a result of net proceeds received in our bridge financing in May and June 2000 and our private placement in October 2000. As a result, we had a net increase of $2,987,100 in cash and cash equivalents during the year ended December 31, 2000. Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 1999 was $1,816,000, primarily consisting of our net loss, which was partially offset by $1,238,400 of non-cash compensation expense and an increase of approximately $468,800 in accounts payable. Cash used in investing activities was $33,800 and cash used in financing activities was $279,900. As a result, we had a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $2,129,700 during the year ended December 31, 1999. Cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 1998 was $2,324,700 primarily consisting of our net loss, which was partially offset by non-cash compensation expense of $668,800 and as a result of the write-off of inventory and other assets related to our discontinuing sales of our facsimile-based products of $289,100. Cash provided by investing activities was $1,224,800 resulting from cash acquired in connection with the acquisition of our subsidiaries in May 1998. Cash provided by financing activities was $3,977,900 primarily as a result of net proceeds received in our private placement of securities in December 1998. As a result, we had a net increase of $2,878,000 in cash and cash equivalents during the year ended December 31, 1998. Other than the leases for our offices and research facilities in Atlanta, Georgia and Beer Sheva, Israel, and certain computer equipment relating to our research and development activities, we do not have any material capital obligations and we do not anticipate making any material capital expenditures in the immediate future. Our aggregate minimum commitments under our existing operating leases for fiscal 2002, 2003 and 2004 are $153,000, $153,300 and $144,500, respectively. Additionally, we do not carry any material short or long term debt or other financing commitments. As a result, the majority of our business costs are the direct result of our operating costs including personnel expenses, such as payroll, and other facility maintenance and overhead expenses. We are not currently generating sufficient revenues from our operations to fund our operating costs and expenses. We have incurred losses to date resulting in an accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2001 of $24,945,100. We anticipate losses to continue. Since September 30, 2001 we have reduced our personnel by approximately 30% and we have recently instituted a firm-wide reduction of salaries by 20%. As of November 30, 2001, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $840,000. Based upon our recent cost-reduction efforts, management estimates that cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund our operating activities and capital requirements through the end of our first quarter of 19 2002. Unanticipated changes in economic conditions or other unforeseen circumstances may cause us to expend our cash and cash equivalents in a shorter period of time. In addition to our cost-reduction efforts, we have engaged in, or are currently engaging in, the following activities in an effort to increase revenues and obtain financing to supplement our cash and cash equivalents in order to meet our operating costs over the next 12 months: o Conducting a marketing program involving several pilot sites in which we have installed our data communications software products for application solutions under HIPAA's privacy regulations. We anticipate that we will begin to generate revenues from one or more of these sites in the first quarter of fiscal 2002; o Developing a qualified value-added reseller program for our INTACTA Bridgeway product; o Seeking to establish additional business alliances for the integration of our technology into firmware products in the area of secure data storage, transmission and retrieval, and obtaining financing from these business alliances. Our ability to continue as a going concern is substantially dependent upon our ability to obtain additional financing or generate increased revenues to support our current operating activities as well as research and development and marketing of our new products. At this time we do not have any current arrangements with respect to other potential sources of additional financing and cannot assure you that additional financing will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we are unable to increase our revenue from existing sources, develop revenues from those potential sources listed above or obtain additional financing over the next few months and as subsequently needed, we may be required to curtail or cease operations. INFLATION We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on revenues or expenses during our last three fiscal years. IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board finalized issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, Business Combinations and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 141 requires the use of the purchase method of accounting and prohibits the use of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS 141 also requires that companies recognize acquired intangible assets apart from goodwill if the acquired intangible assets meet certain criteria. SFAS 141 applies to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for purchase business combinations completed on or after July 1, 2001. It also requires, upon adoption of SFAS 142, that companies reclassify the carrying amounts of intangible assets and goodwill based on the criteria in SFAS 141. SFAS 142 requires, among other things, that companies no longer amortize goodwill, but instead test goodwill for impairment at least annually. In addition, SFAS 142 requires that companies identify reporting units for the purpose of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill, reassess the useful lives of other existing recognized intangible assets, and cease amortization of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should be tested for impairment in 20 accordance with the guidance in SFAS 142. SFAS 142 is required to be applied in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized at that date, regardless of when those assets were initially recognized. SFAS 142 requires companies to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test six months from the date of adoption. Companies are also required to reassess the useful lives of other intangible assets within the first interim quarter after adoption of SFAS 142. The adoption of SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142 is not expected to have a material effect on Intacta's financial position, results of operations and cash flows in 2002 and subsequent years. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument, including certain derivative instruments imbedded in other contracts, be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The statement also requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. SFAS No. 137 delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, Amendment of SFAS No. 133, liberalized the application of SFAS No. 133 in a number of areas. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation, an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25 which became effective on July 1, 2000. Interpretation No. 44 clarifies (a) the definition of employee for purposes of applying Opinion No. 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a stock compensation plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. Adoption of the provisions of Interpretation No. 44 did not have a significant impact on Intacta's financial statements. We believe that we are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition, which outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 21 BUSINESS OVERVIEW We are a developer and marketer of software products based on our patented technology that, through its unique combination of compression, encoding and error correction processes, transforms any data format ranging from text, graphic, audio or video from a binary file into INTACTA.CODE, which is language transparent and platform independent. We believe that our technology provides solutions and applications that enable enterprises to bridge their communications and management information systems across digital and non-digital media, by providing the secure bi-directional transmission and subsequent recovery and storage of data. INDUSTRY Today's computer-based business environment has accelerated the transition of enterprises from the historical paper-based business model to a digital model, allowing these enterprises to manage, authenticate, archive and transmit data electronically. This rapid transition, however, has heightened the need for establishing and maintaining the privacy, security and control of data which is stored and transmitted across a wide range of evolving and legacy digital communications and information management systems. A report by IDC, a leading provider of technology industry analysis and market data to builders, providers and users of information technology, forecasts that the worldwide market for encryption software will grow from approximately $184 million in 2000 to approximately $365 million in 2005. The report by IDC also indicates the following key market trends that are expected to provide enhanced revenue opportunities for software developers who deliver encryption and security related technologies: o Security. As the reliance upon the digital medium for the storage and transmission of data continues to grow, businesses, professionals and individual consumers utilizing this medium are becoming increasingly sensitive to unauthorized access and use of proprietary or personal information. Enterprises are particularly seeking increased security in the following areas: - "data at rest" and other stored data protection, for information such as credit care numbers, addresses, social security information; and - copyright protection, from unauthorized access to and subsequent use of copyrighted materials. o Privacy and government regulation. Newly introduced government regulations such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act are requiring improved security and privacy protection for the storage and transmission of certain information. o Wireless initiatives. The number of mobile computing devices that can access the Web continues to increase, extending traditional enterprise tiers for maintaining and communicating data utilizing wireless technologies. Revenues from developer toolkits in the encryption area are expected to increase as companies develop applications for the wireless market. File encryption may provide additional protection for data stored on mobile devices that are more prone to being lost or stolen. 22 Increased sensitivity to security requirements has resulted in a search for more comprehensive methods of individual identification, particularly with respect to controlling or monitoring access by persons to secure areas, databases, and software applications. In an attempt to meet enhanced security requirements, biometric data such as fingerprint, iris scans, and facial recognition technologies are receiving greater scrutiny and development efforts as an added layer of identification to the more recognized forms of security control such as passwords, personal identification numbers and smartcards. We believe that the flexibility and scalability of our technology provides the building blocks for creating a range of solutions addressing the secure communication and management of data in the digital environment. EVOLUTION OF OUR BUSINESS We were organized in October 1997 to acquire two companies that marketed and developed two related facsimile storage and retrieval products that incorporated an early version of our technology. Development and production of the facsimile products were performed in Israel by Intacta Labs Ltd., and marketing and distribution were performed in the United States by Intacta Delaware, Inc. We acquired these companies in May 1998 in exchange for approximately 70% of our outstanding capital stock immediately after the acquisition. The acquisition was treated, for accounting purposes, as a reverse acquisition. During 1997 and part of 1998 we derived substantially all of our revenues from the sale of facsimile-based products. Beginning in the latter part of 1997 and continuing into 1998 we began to wind down our production and active marketing of the facsimile-based products due to reduced profit margins and our anticipation of further deterioration of profit margins from increased competition and costs of marketing these products to the retail market. At that time, we initiated research and development of advanced products and software applications based on our technology. We also began, on a very limited basis, licensing our technology for integration with applications and solutions to end-users. In the middle of 1999, due to competitive pressures and our re-evaluation of our business model and revenue/cost projections, we determined, except with respect to certain of the advanced products that were at or near completion of development, to forego further development of these products which were based upon our technology and to focus on direct marketing of our technology for licensing to large enterprises and third party solution providers. Our limited financial and other marketing resources and the further evolution of our business model toward the licensing of our technology prevented us from engaging in a full-scale marketing program for the advanced products that were nearing completion. In March 2001, we launched a suite of INTACTA.CODE software development kits, or SDK's, making our technology available to software developers for integration into both existing and new applications requiring features that provide for the secure transmission and storage of compressed data across various platforms and operating devices. We anticipate that the licensing of SDK's to software developers will create an additional revenue stream to our technology licensing arrangements with large enterprises and third-party solution providers, independent software vendors and original equipment manufacturers. Additionally in October 2001, we launched a suite of data communications software products targeted to the health-care industry addressing the secure transmission of confidential patient information under the new privacy regulations promulgated by HIPAA. 23 OUR PRODUCTS In order to maximize our product flexibility and our ability to respond to market developments and individual customer requirements, our product development objectives include: o designing a comprehensive suite of developer toolkits enabling the embedding and integration of our core technology into both firmware and software applications and solutions of third-party original equipment manufacturers, systems integrators and independent software vendors; and o leveraging our developer toolkits and core technology to quickly develop and deliver software products to vertical markets such as healthcare and biometric security. Our suite of INTACTA.CODE SDK software products are designed to provide rapid integration of our technology into existing legacy enterprise systems as well as assist application developers in creating or extending software and firmware solutions requiring the secure compression of data for management and transmission across any medium regardless of platform, device or location. These software products may be downloaded from our website and certain other participating websites that have entered into exclusive arrangements with us to provide for the online purchase and distribution of our products. Other than with respect to the Trial Version product, which is a sample product available at no charge, our SDK products are only downloadable pursuant to licensing fees paid prior to downloading, at prices ranging from $500 for the Developer's Edition to $25,000 for the Enterprise Edition. In addition, our SDK products are also subject to a royalty payment to the extent that the application developer or other end-user modifies the SDK product for further distribution. These royalty fees will be negotiated on a per contract basis, based upon transaction usage measurements such as amount of data processed, amount of transactions processed and the number of installed licenses or sites utilizing our software. Support for these software products is also provided from our website. o INTACTA.CODE SDK Trial Version is currently only available for Windows platforms and allows application developers to experience the INTACTA.CODE process by facilitating testing, benchmarking and prototyping of 1 kilobyte data files for encoding and decoding. This SDK is free of charge and is used as a promotional tool to educate software application developers with respect to the benefits of our technology. o INTACTA.CODE SDK Developer's Edition is supportable on platforms such as Windows 9x, 2000 and NT, Windows CE, Palm OS and MAC and allows application developers to integrate the INTACTA.CODE encoding and compression engines to process data files. o INTACTA.CODE SDK Enterprise Edition is a custom development services package, geared directly to the enterprise, designed to provide custom access to INTACTA.CODE encoding and decoding engines. This software supports data and image read and write capabilities using comparison, authentication and encryption in digital or print media. Digital form includes support for all platforms, unlimited data size and custom encryption. In the beginning of October 2001, we released two data communication software application products based on our INTACTA.CODE technology that are designed to ensure the privacy of patient information by providing solutions for the secure transmission of data as required by the new health-care information security regulations under HIPAA. These products are: 24 o INTACTA Express - Healthcare Edition, a Windows application that integrates with Microsoft OfficeTM software, provides secure faxing and e-mail and supports scanning of existing paper-based information, all with detailed audit reporting. o INTACTA Bridgeway - Healthcare Edition, a client/server communications solution that can be used to maintain the privacy and security of confidential patient information among physician practices, hospitals, third-party payors and administrative clearing houses. This software supports existing fax servers and email systems such as Microsoft OutlookTM and Symantec's WinFax PROTM, automatically converts any external file type into INTACTA.CODE and supports back-end open database communication conduits and custom-developed application program interfaces, or API's, via INTACTA.CODE SDK products. It also includes built in and configurable archive and auditing tools. Additionally, in the beginning of October 2001, we completed development of XPRESS.ID 2000, a software product designed to combine biometric facial recognition technology with our encoding technology to provide an integrated verification solution for the security market. XPRESS.ID-2000 works by creating a digital image of an individual that is then processed as a facial template. The image is then securely encoded with INTACTA.CODE and the individual's personal data is then embedded along with the facial image. We believe that with the increase in the use of false identification obtained through the internet and the need to implement more secure programs to verify identities, XPRESS.ID-2000 will provide the biometric identification marketplace with an easy-to-use solution to ensure that information and imaging cannot be tampered with and will remain secure in mobile applications. Identified applications for XPRESS.ID-2000 include visas and passports, drivers licenses, access cards, smartcards, and social security cards. INTACTA.CODE TECHNOLOGY Our core technology is a unique integration of compression, encryption and form factor. The compression engine compresses binary files comprised of text, graphics, audio or video. The encoding engine simultaneously embeds a proprietary error correction algorithm in the INTACTA.CODE to aid in the accurate recovery of the content and format of the original digital file, as well as security features to protect against unauthorized access or use of the INTACTA.CODE. The resulting INTACTA.CODE is a secure, damage resistant graphical representation of the original digital file, which may be maintained or transmitted in digital format or transferred to paper format for storage and/or facsimile transmission. The following is a graphical representation of the functions of our technology: 25 [GRAPHIC OMITTED] BINARY DATA | INTACTA CODE ENCODER | COMPRESSION | PASSWORD ---- ENCRYPTION ENGINE TIME STAMP ---- USER ID | REGISTER EXPIRATION DATE ENCRYPTION | 2048-BIT | INTACTA CODE 128-BIT ERROR CORRECTION 56-BIT | TIME STAMP 40-BIT | SIGNATURE _ ENCODER ENGINE EXPIRATION DATE | INTACTA CODE ENCRYPTED DATA The key features of our technology are: o Compression. The compression capability of our technology decreases the amount of bandwidth required to transmit data, and the amount of space required to store data. The recipient of a compressed and encoded file may then restore the data to its original format for further review and/or editing. o Security. The security features of our technology enable users to protect information contained within INTACTA.CODE. The security features include the ability to restrict access to particular users only, and the ability to verity the sender and content of an INTACTA.CODE file containing sensitive information. Protection can also be layered so that a reader would require a separate and distinct password to access successive layers of information. o Error Correction. Our technology offers a robust error correction process, which maintains the integrity of the content and format of the original compressed data in the event of degradation to the medium over which the data is being transmitted. The user can choose the level of error correction required depending on the reliability of the medium being used to transmit or store the data. 26 o Transmission and Restoration of Data In Any Form. Our technology enables the encoding and transmission of data from any form, including paper based or digital forms, and across diverse operating platforms, such as PDA's and other mobile computing devices, personal computers, mainframes, servers and databases. With our technology, the recipient of the transmission can decode the data without further manipulation, translation or reconfiguration of the content or format. An additional feature of our technology is the interchangeability of certain individual functions such as the compression and encryption modules. These functions may be substituted with the potential customer's legacy compression and encryption programs required by the customer's existing systems. INTACTA.CODE's flexibility and adaptability makes it highly compatible with existing applications and information systems without sacrificing functionality. We believe that our core technology provides the following benefits: o protects sensitive data such as patient records and business documents from unauthorized access or use through security features, including encoding and authentication; o enhances hardware products and software applications of an enterprise's existing communication and information management systems at a cost that is much less than a conversion to a new system but with similar functionality; o reduces bandwidth required for storage and transmission of data allowing enterprises to transmit the information in a faster, more cost-effective manner, and requires less space in both digital and paper-based media for the storage and archiving of documents; o improves performance of wireless communications and utility of mobile computing devices such as personal digital assistants, notebook and palm-size computers and smart cellular phones by enhancing their ability to receive, store and transmit data; and o maintains compatibility with existing software toolkits. STRATEGY Our strategy is to market our software products and technology directly to software application developers for large enterprises, as well as through strategic relationships with third party solution providers and distributors, independent software vendors and original equipment manufacturers with established distribution channels and with reputations for marketing or integrating value added technology such as ours. In order to implement our strategy, we intend to: o establish the value of our software products and technology with software developers for integration in various enterprise-based horizontal applications such as mobile computing, Intranet/Internet and e-commerce, customer relationship management and supply chain management; o identify vertical markets such as healthcare, security, telecommunications and financial services which require applications incorporating our software products and technology or for which our technology may be adapted or enhanced; and 27 o establish an empowered partner base with third-party solution providers that may utilize our developer toolkits and applications. Large Enterprises. A number of large enterprises rely upon internal resources for systems integration and product development with respect to information management and communications. We intend to market our software products and technology as an enhancement to an enterprise's legacy hardware and software products by more efficient means than conversion to a new system. Third Party Solution Providers. Third party solution providers such as application service providers and systems integrators as well as independent software vendors and original equipment manufacturers have the ability to integrate value-added technology such as ours. Through strategic relationships with these entities, we intend to directly market and distribute or bundle our technology as a value added service with other software or hardware products to be sold or licensed to end-users. MARKETING Our marketing efforts are directed at promoting our software products and technology, creating market awareness and generating leads through print and website advertising campaigns and promotional activities at industry trade shows, events and conferences. Our target markets for marketing and promoting our software products and technology are: Healthcare A key component of our marketing plan is to establish key industry alliances and market our software products and technology as HIPAA-compliant solutions for healthcare organizations. Among other things, the final privacy rule under HIPAA is requiring healthcare organizations to provide for the secure transmission and maintenance of their patient healthcare information. For these organizations to implement or reinforce and support these security efforts, solutions for their legacy paper-based and automated digital systems will be required to integrate paper records, which account for substantially all of their current healthcare records, with electronic media. A number of legacy information systems remain in use in the healthcare industry that are difficult to integrate with newer systems or redesign to work with new applications. Additionally, the highly fragmented healthcare information technology market limits the ability to build interfaces between disparate information systems from different vendors making it more difficult to implement a seamless cross-enterprise security system. A December 2000 study by First Consulting Group prepared for the American Hospital Association, supplemented by a March 2001 report by First Consulting Group subsequent to the issuance of the final privacy rule under HIPAA, indicates the potential cost to hospitals attempting to meet the provisions of the privacy rule under HIPAA. These costs, which depend in part on the compliance efforts to be taken by these organizations and the complexity of their information systems, are estimated to be approximately $4 billion over five years for hospitals generally seeking to comply by modifying current information systems and approximately $22.5 billion over the same five-year period for hospitals required to invest in new information systems. We believe that the pervasive security protocol of our core technology provides the capabilities necessary to implement internal integration automation solutions enabling healthcare organizations to utilize their existing communications infrastructure to perform, among other things, secure HIPAA-complaint transmissions via paper-based facsimile as well as e-mail. 28 Security Software The security software industry is highly fragmented and rapidly evolving, marked by a substantial number of companies developing core competencies in their chosen security segments and start-up and small niche companies seeking to introduce advanced security products. We believe that the compression, encryption and form factor features of our core technology make it attractive for enhancing existing security products or for integrating with advanced products in development, particularly in the biometric identification market, and we have established relationships with security technology providers, analysts, and consultants. A September 2001 report by International Biometric Group projects that the market for biometric technologies is expected to grow from approximately $399 million of revenues in 2000 to approximately $1.9 billion of revenues by 2005, primarily attributable to network access and e-commerce in the private sector and large-scale public sector investment such as by law enforcement agencies. We believe that our core technology can be integrated as an add-on application to existing as well as evolving facial recognition systems or other biometric client-server solutions enabling the integrity of compressed data as well as the secure transmission of biometric information over standard communication systems. LICENSING Software Products In March 2001, we released a suite of INTACTA.CODE SDK software products which are designed to provide rapid integration of our technology into existing legacy enterprise systems as well as assist application developers in creating or extending software and firmware solutions requiring the secure compression of data for management and transmission across any medium regardless of platform, device or location. Our INTACTA.CODE SDK Developer's and Enterprise Editions are marketed to application developers and large enterprises for an initial licensing fee together with royalty fees in the event of subsequent modification for further distribution, which royalty fees will be negotiated on a per contract basis, based upon transaction usage measurements. Our INTACTA Express - Healthcare Edition and INTACTA Bridgeway - Healthcare Edition products, designed for secure transmission and maintenance of information in the healthcare industry and are marketed to end-users in the healthcare industry for a one-time licensing fee, with potential additional fees for subsequent upgrades and enhancements. Technology During 2000, we entered into licensing arrangements for our technology with two large enterprises, enabling such enterprises to further license or utilize the compression and security features of our technology in their communications and information management operations. Our goal is to enter into additional licensing agreements for our technology with large enterprises that utilize internal resources for systems integration and development, and with third party solution providers such as application service providers, independent software vendors and original equipment manufacturers that can market our technology as a module or incorporate or embed our technology into hardware and/or software applications for sale to end users. We anticipate these licensing arrangements to involve an up-front payment by the enterprise or solution provider for configuration and installation services, with the potential for additional license fees for subsequent updates and enhancements. 29 CUSTOMERS The following is a list of our customers who have licensed our technology or software applications based on our technology: o DataLode, Inc. In July 1999, we entered into a non-exclusive license agreement with DataLode, Inc. to license a software product based upon INTACTA.CODE. DataLode provides warranty registration services to Hewlett Packard and others for products in Europe and North America and utilizes our product to eliminate manual data entry and the need for optical character recognition. This is anticipated to significantly lower DataLode's cost, assure 100% data accuracy and increase the overall efficiency of its operations. We began to generate revenues from this agreement in the fourth quarter of 2000. o Systems Nakashima Co., Ltd. In April 2000, we entered into an agreement with Systems Nakashima Co., Ltd. pursuant to which we have granted Fujitsu Limited a non-exclusive right to license our technology to a certain number of newspapers in Japan. Fujitsu Limited is, among other things, a developer of advanced technologies for electronics and telecommunications and is one of the largest providers of electronic equipment to the print industry in Japan. Fujitsu licenses applications incorporating INTACTA.CODE to Yomiuri Shimbun, a daily newspaper published in Japan with one of the largest daily circulations in the world, which will allow its readers to receive multimedia content as part of their paper. We recognized consulting revenues from this agreement in the second quarter of 2000, which accounted for 46% of our revenues for fiscal 2000. o Intertek Testing International Ltd. In September 2000 we entered into an agreement to license INTACTA.CODE to Intertek Testing International Ltd., a worldwide products testing inspection and certification company, to enable Intertek to create secure electronic certificates, which may be e-mailed or downloaded to a paper based format and subsequently scanned back into electronic format. We believe that these solutions are particularly useful in the import/export industry on account of the fact that results of inspections or assessments of shipments may be encoded, filed electronically and added to the certificates. o LakeView Community Hospital. In October, 2001, our HIPAA based data-communication software products were selected by LakeView Community Hospital Authority and its subsidiaries for integration with its existing systems. LakeView, together with its subsidiaries has in excess of 700 employees providing comprehensive inpatient, outpatient, home and extended healthcare services to Van Buren County and other communities in southwest Michigan. For our fiscal year 2000 Systems Nakashima Co. Ltd., Cybro Medical, Ltd. and InterLearn, Ltd accounted for approximately 46%, 30% and 13%, respectively, of our net sales. For our fiscal year 1999, Brother Industries, Ltd. and Cybro Medical, Ltd. accounted for approximately 53% and 40%, respectively, of our net sales. For our fiscal year ended 1998, Brother Industries, Ltd., Multiple Zones International, Rexton Corporation and SkyMall Inc. accounted for approximately 27%, 26%, 15% and 12%, respectively, of our net sales. Other than Systems Nakashima Co. Ltd. all of the sales to the customers listed above were from products and components related to our discontinued facsimile-based business. While substantially all of our marketing efforts are currently to U.S. customers, primarily in the healthcare industry for our HIPPA-based products, we have, in the past, had sales to customers in the Mid-East and Far East. To the extent that marketing and sales of our core technology and related 30 products to customers in foreign countries increases, we may be subject to a number of risk and uncertainties which could reduce our margins and, consequently, our operating results, including: o collection of accounts receivable; o trade restrictions; o fluctuations in currency exchange rates; o export duties and tariffs; and o uncertain political, economic or military developments. STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS We have established non-financial relationships with a number of solution providers, software developers and advanced product manufacturers in an effort to increase awareness of our technology. These relationships range from membership in a third-party's product design program to partnering arrangements for the further research and development of viable products or applications integrating our technology. We have not generated revenues at this time from these relationships and while we do not rely on these third parties for the sale of our technology or products, management believes that they assist in increasing market recognition and interest in our technology. These relationships include: o IBM Corporation. We are a member in IBM's PartnerWorld for Developers, which is a marketing and enablement program designed to provide for the sharing of information with respect to the development of advanced technologies within the portfolio of IBM products. o Compaq Computer Corporation.

COMPETITION The market for digital communication and data management applications and solutions is characterized by intense competition and rapidly changing business conditions, customer requirements and technologies. We believe that the primary competitive factors for technologies and software products addressing secure compression, storage and transmission of data are price, functionality and compatibility, adaptability to evolving products, performance, timelines of enhancements and customer support. 32 Our core technology and related products integrate several features including encryption, compression and error-correction which extend the value of such technology and products beyond traditional bar codes and provide value-added communication applications not necessarily available from encryption software providers. Consequently, while we may compete in the data encryption sector with companies such as RSA Security Inc., Certicom Corp. and Checkpoint Systems Inc. and companies in the digital communications sector such as Symantec Corp. and Bsquare Corporation, as well as smaller development companies, many of whom are well established companies with reputations for success in the development, licensing and sale of their products and technology that have substantially greater financial, technical, personnel and other resources than we do, management believes that there is no direct competitor that currently offers products with the unique characteristics and capabilities provided by our technology and software products. However, as a result of our business transition from facsimile based products, our recent commercial development of products and our limited marketing resources, we have not established a meaningful market share for our products and technology. Moreover, to the extent that other companies develop functionally equivalent or superior products or technologies to INTACTA.CODE, our technology could become obsolete or less marketable. Our ability to compete, therefore, will depend on our ability to successfully market and continually enhance our software products and technology. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY Our success is dependent upon our ability to protect our intellectual property rights. We rely principally on a combination of patent, copyright and trademark registrations and trade secrets and non-disclosure agreements to establish and maintain our intellectual property rights. We hold the following five Israel patents and two United States patents, with corresponding foreign patents in Canada, Europe, Australia and South Africa, as well as the following patent applications pending registration: Description of Registered Patents Patent No. Expiration Date --------------------------------- ---------- --------------- Process for making printed matter and matter obtained Israel #96118 October 25, 2010 by said process Process and device for authenticating documents Israel #96969 January 11, 2011 Process and apparatus for transmitting messages Israel #96973 January 16, 2011 Process for transmitting and/or storing information Israel #103755 November 15, 2012 Process and apparatus for transmitting and/or storing Israel #105493 April 22, 2013 compressed information Graphic matter and process and apparatus for producing, U.S. #5,313,564 July 20, 2011 transmitting and reading the same Apparatus and method for storing and transmitting data U.S. #5,790,640 July 21, 2016 between a computer, a facsimile machine and a telephone network 33 Country Filed/ Corresponding Description of Pending Patents Application No. Applications ------------------------------ --------------- ------------ Process for transmitting and/or storing information Japan / 5-285375 Process for transmitting, receiving and/or storing Israel / 124152 Japan, Canada, information France, Germany and United Kingdom As part of our operating procedures, we generally enter into intellectual property rights, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements with each of our key employees and consultants and limit access to and distribution of our technology and related documentation and information. Our confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements include provisions with regard to our maintaining ownership of technological developments. Notwithstanding the precautions we take, third parties may copy or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary without our authorization or independently develop technologies similar or superior to our technology. Other parties may breach confidentiality agreements and other protective contracts we have entered into. We may not become aware of, or have adequate remedies, in the event a breach or unauthorized use occurs. Policing unauthorized use of our technology is difficult, particularly because the global nature of the electronic communications market makes it difficult to control the final destination or security of software or other data transmissions. Furthermore, the laws of other jurisdictions may afford little or no protection of our intellectual property rights. Our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected if we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights. There is a risk that our technology may infringe upon the proprietary rights of third parties. In addition, whether or not our technology infringes on proprietary rights of third parties, infringement or invalidity claims may be asserted or prosecuted against us and we could incur significant expense in defending them. If any claims or actions are asserted against us, we may be required to modify our technology or seek licenses for these intellectual property rights. We may not be able to modify our technology or obtain licenses on commercially reasonable terms, in a timely manner or at all. Our failure to do so could adversely affect our business. EMPLOYEES As of the date of this prospectus, we employed a total of 17 employees. Of such employees, 12 are full time and 5 are part-time, including 10 in research and development, 2 in marketing and sales and 5 in administration. If the need arises for additional research and development employees and we are unable to hire qualified employees in a timely manner, we may outsource non-critical research and development projects to third parties. None of our employees are represented by a union or covered by collective bargaining agreements. We believe that our relations with our employees are good. 34 FACILITIES Our principal administrative and marketing facility is located in Atlanta, Georgia and consists of approximately 4,000 square feet of office space pursuant to a lease that expires in February 2006. We also conduct a limited amount of research and development activities at this facility. Our principal research and development facility is located in Beer Sheva, Israel and consists of approximately 2,300 square feet pursuant to a lease that expires in July 2005. We believe that our current administrative, marketing and research facilities are adequate for our planned future operations. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS In November 2001, Datastrip International Limited, an Ireland company, filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia against Intacta alleging patent infringement by Intacta. Datastrip claims that our INTACTA.CODE technology and its production, use, marketing and sales infringes upon certain bar-code technology claimed by a patent purported to be owned by Datastrip. In addition to preliminary and permanent injunctions sought by Datastrip against Intacta from further alleged infringement of its patent, Datastrip seeks an unstated amount of monetary damages equal to three times the amount the court would deem sufficient to compensate Datastrip for the alleged infringement. Intacta believes that Datastrip's claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit. We have filed a counterclaim against Datastrip seeking, among other things, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, declaratory judgments as to the invalidity and unenforceability of Datastrip's purported patent and its claim of infringement against Intacta, as well as monetary damages, reasonable attorney's fees and litigation expenses. However, since this lawsuit is in an early stage, we cannot assure you that it will be resolved in our favor or that an outcome of any further litigation or settlement would not have a material adverse effect on our operations or financial condition. Other than the proceeding noted above we are not aware of any other pending or threatened litigation. 35 MANAGEMENT EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS Our executive officers and directors are: NAME AGE POSITION ---- --- -------- Altaf S.

Nazerali and Tassa under our 1998 stock option plan. 40 EMPLOYMENT AND CONSULTING AGREEMENTS We entered into a consulting agreement with Pensbreigh Holdings Ltd., an independent contractor engaged in the business of providing various corporate and consulting services to businesses, of which Mr. Nazerali is a stockholder and officer, dated as of March 1, 1999. Under the agreement, Pensbreigh provides us with the services of Mr. Nazerali and Arie Halpern, an affiliate of Intacta and the controlling stockholder of Corsa. During the initial term of the agreement, we agreed to pay Pensbreigh a monthly fee of $16,666. Effective June 1, 2001, the monthly fee we pay to Pensbreigh under the consulting agreement was reduced to $12,500. This agreement has been extended, in accordance with its terms, for a one-year period through October 1, 2002, with a monthly fee of $12,500. Since Mr. Nazerali does not have an employment contract with us, he is therefore not entitled to participate in any benefit plans to which regular employees are eligible. We entered into an employment agreement with Noel Bambrough in March 1999, which provided for a salary of $12,500 per month from April 1, 1999 through July 31, 1999 and a salary of $20,833 per month thereafter. However, we had paid Mr. Bambrough only $12,500 per month through June 30, 2000. The balance of accrued but unpaid salary of approximately $91,633 was paid to Mr. Bambrough from a portion of the proceeds of our October 2000 private placement. Since June 1, 2000, Mr. Bambrough has been receiving $20,833 per month. Mr. Bambrough is also eligible for a bonus not to exceed $100,000 per year based on the achievement of specific agreed upon business goals and targets. Under the agreement, we granted Mr. Bambrough an option, under our 1998 stock option plan, to purchase 200,000 shares of common stock at a price of $4.00 per share. In addition, subject to our board of directors' approval, we must issue to Mr. Bambrough options to purchase a number of shares at least equal to 10% of the aggregate number of options available for grant under any subsequent option plan. Accordingly, as of June 1, 2001, we have granted Mr. Bambrough an option, under our 2000 stock incentive plan, to purchase 240,000 shares of common stock at a price of $.75 per share. STOCK OPTION PLAN On June 1, 1998, our board of directors approved the creation of our 1998 stock option plan. Under our 1998 stock option plan, our board of directors may grant incentive and non-qualified options to acquire up to a total of 1,667,100 shares of common stock to our directors, officers, employees and consultants. As of the date of this prospectus, options to acquire 1,325,000 shares at a price of $.75 per share and options to acquire 321,800 shares at prices ranging from $2.00 to $4.00 per share, were outstanding. On July 21, 2000, our board of directors adopted our 2000 stock incentive plan, which was subsequently approved by our stockholders at our annual meeting in May 2001. Our 2000 stock incentive plan provides for the grant of any or all of the following types of awards: o stock options, which may be either incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options; o restricted stock; o deferred stock; and o other stock based awards. 41 A total of 2,400,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for distribution under our 2000 stock incentive plan. As of the date of this prospectus, options to acquire 1,003,000 shares at a price of $.75 per share were outstanding. Of the options granted under our 1998 stock option plan, options to purchase an aggregate of 625,000 shares have been granted to certain of our executive officers and directors at exercise prices ranging from $.75 to $4.00, as follows: o options to purchase an aggregate of 425,000 shares were granted to Messrs. Nazerali and Wilmot at an exercise price of $.75 per share, and o options to purchase 200,000 shares were granted to Mr. Bambrough at an exercise price of $4.00 per share.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND OTHERS The Nevada Private Corporation Law provides for the indemnification of directors, officers, agents or employees for expenses including attorneys' fees, judgments and fines incurred in connection with any civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding to which such person was or is made a party, provided that such person acted in good faith and reasonably believed that his actions were in the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to a criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. Nevada law also provides for the indemnification of directors, officers, agents or employees for some, but not all, expenses incurred in connection with any action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, provided that such person acted in good faith and reasonably believed that his actions were in the best interests of the corporation. Under Nevada law, discretionary indemnification by a corporation may be made only as authorized by (i) the stockholders; (ii) a majority vote of a quorum of directors that were not party to the action, suit or proceeding; or (iii) independent legal counsel in a written opinion if so ordered by a majority of a quorum of directors not party to the action, suit or proceeding or in the event that a quorum of such directors cannot be obtained. Nevada law allows corporations to provide, either in their articles, by-laws or by agreement, for the mandatory payment of expenses of officers and directors, as they are incurred in defending a criminal or civil action, suit or proceeding in advance of a final disposition, provided that the officer or director submits an undertaking to repay any advances if a court of competent jurisdiction ultimately determines that the officer or director was not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. Our articles of incorporation provide, to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, for the mandatory indemnification of our officers and directors for expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding to which the officer or director is or was or is threatened to be made a party. 42 Our by-laws further provide for the contractual right to officers and directors to receive mandatory payment of expenses as they are incurred in connection with defending a civil a criminal action, suit or proceeding in advance of final disposition provided that the officer or director provides a written undertaking to repay the advances in the event a court of competent jurisdiction ultimately determines that such officer or director is not entitled to be indemnified by us. 43 PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS The following table sets forth information concerning the beneficial ownership of our outstanding common stock as the date of this prospectus for: o each person or group that we know owns beneficially more than 5% of our common stock; o each of our directors and named executive officers individually; and o all directors and executive officers as a group.

Holdings, an entity organized under the laws of Luxembourg. Corsa owned 69% of our Common Stock upon closing of the exchange agreement. Corsa is 90% controlled by Mr. Arie Halpern and 10% controlled by Shira Advising, Communication and Investment Ltd., an Israeli corporation controlled by Yechiel Y. Sharabi, a former director of Intacta, and Hadassa Y. Sharabi, Mr. Sharabi's wife. Under the exchange agreement, Corsa transferred 100% of the outstanding shares of Intacta Delaware Inc. and 99% of the outstanding shares of Intacta Labs Ltd. to us. In exchange, we issued 11,486,000 shares of Common Stock to Corsa. Corsa subsequently sold 7,486,000 of those shares in private transactions, resulting in a decrease of Corsa's ownership to 4,000,000 shares. Under the exchange agreement, we agreed with Corsa that our board of directors would be increased from three to seven persons, of which Corsa had the right to appoint five of the initial seven directors. Of those directors, Messrs. Shai, Sagi and Tassa were designated by Corsa. Under the exchange agreement, we agreed to do the following: o enter into a stockholders' agreement (which terminated on June 1, 2000) governing the election of directors; o implement an equity incentive plan; and o raise $5,000,000 through the sale of our common stock. To date we have implemented an equity incentive plan and we have raised approximately $11,450,000 through (i) the sale of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock to MFC Merchant Bank SA in December 1998 for a total of $4,000,000, (ii) the conversion in June 1999 of approximately $952,000 of outstanding non-interest-bearing loans made to us by Valor Invest Limited, an affiliate of our Chairman of the Board, into 238,000 shares of our common stock (described below) and (iii) the sale of 2,333,310 shares of our common stock included in units sold in our private placement which closed in October 2000, for cash and the conversion of substantially all of the principal and accrued interest on bridge notes issued in our bridge financing in May and June 2000. From December 1997 through November 1998, Valor made non-interest-bearing loans to us in the aggregate amount of $2,172,000. During 1998 and 1999, we repaid a total of $1,131,000 of these loans. On June 30, 1999, we issued 238,000 shares of common stock to Valor in repayment of $952,000 of outstanding loans, at the rate of $4.00 per share, leaving a balance of $89,000 owed to Valor. During the first half of 2000, Valor made an additional $704,500 of non-interest-bearing loans to us, of which $312,000 was subsequently repaid. In May 2000, Valor converted $250,000 of the unpaid balance of these loans into 2.5 units, identical to the units issued in our bridge financing in May and June 2000 and subordinated the balance of such loans to our repayment of the promissory notes we issued in our bridge financing. Thereafter, Valor converted the principal amount of the notes included in the units acquired in May 2000 as well as the balance of its subordinated loans into an aggregate of 160,483 units in our private placement. Upon the closing of our private placement we paid Valor the amount of interest that had accrued on the notes that Valor had converted into units in the private placement. During 1998, 1999 and 2000 we paid consulting, management and marketing fees to some of our directors or stockholders and/or their affiliates in the following amounts: 47 o Pensbreigh Holdings Ltd., of which Mr. Nazerali is President and a stockholder, $25,000 during 1998, $200,000 during 1999 and $200,000 during 2000; and o Menachem Tassa, our Executive Vice President, Research and Development - $170,000 during 1998 (including accrued fees of $50,000), $120,000 during 1999 and $120,000 during 2000. Mr. Tassa subsequently resigned his position of Executive Vice President, Research and Development, effective July 1, 2001. Mr. Tassa continued to serve Intacta as a consultant through July 31, 2001. Mr. Tassa currently serves as an advisor to Intacta pursuant to an oral arrangement. We paid approximately $61,000, $94,000 and $88,000 during 1998, 1999 and 2000, respectively, to International Portfolio Management Inc., in connection with administrative services provided to us. Altaf S. Nazerali, our Chairman of the Board, is the sole stockholder of International Portfolio Management Inc., Ross Wilmot, our director, is the Vice President, Finance of International Portfolio Management Inc., and Sandra E. Buschau, our corporate secretary, is a Vice President of International Portfolio Management Inc. Valor Invest Limited, an affiliate of our Chairman of the Board, participated in the offering of our private placement for which it received, upon consummation of the private placement in October 2000, aggregate commissions of approximately $194,460 and approximately 21,607 in-kind units, which units were similar in all respects to the units sold in the private placement. 48 DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES COMMON STOCK We are authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $.0001 par value per share. As of the date of this prospectus, 20,345,924 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding and held of record by approximately 78 stockholders. Holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders. Subject to preferences of any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of shares of common stock are entitled to receive any dividends the board of directors declares out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of shares of common stock are entitled to share all of our assets remaining after payment of liabilities and after giving effect to the liquidation preferences of any outstanding preferred stock. All outstanding shares of Common Stock are fully paid and nonassessable. PREFERRED STOCK We are authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.0001 par value per share. As of the date of this prospectus, no shares of preferred stock were outstanding. WARRANTS We currently have an aggregate of 3,357,724 warrants outstanding, of which an aggregate of 937,500 warrants were issued in connection with our bridge financing in May and June 2000 and an aggregate of 2,420,224 were issued in connection with our October 2000 private placement. Each warrant entitles its holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $3.50, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, described below. The warrants issued in connection with the bridge financing may be exercised until May 30, 2005 and the warrants issued in connection with the private placement may be exercised until October 6, 2005, in each case unless earlier redeemed by Intacta. Each holder may exercise his warrant upon surrender of the warrant certificate during the exercise period at our offices, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price in cash or by check payable to Intacta for the number of warrants being exercised. In the event that the exercise of a warrant results in the issuance of a fractional share, we will round such fractional interest up to the nearest whole number. Warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of our stockholders. The exercise price and number of shares of our common stock or other securities issuable on exercise of the warrants are subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, including in the event we: o pay a dividend or make a distribution of our common stock; o subdivide or combine our outstanding common stock; o reclassify or change our outstanding common stock; o consolidate or merge with another company and we are not the surviving entity. 49 We may redeem the warrants in the event that (a) the closing sale price of our common stock for a period of 20 consecutive trading days on the principal market in which our common stock is then traded equals or exceeds 200% of the then-effective exercise price of the warrants, and (b) the shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants are publicly tradeable pursuant to a registration statement filed with, and declared effective by, the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act. All of the warrant shares underlying the foregoing warrants have previously been registered for resale by the holders of the warrants. REGISTRATION RIGHTS In April 2001, we entered into an agreement with Corsa S.A. Holdings, pursuant to which we agreed to file a registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, for up to 4,000,000 shares of our common stock held by Corsa. ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF NEVADA LAW Nevada law provides that any agreement providing for the merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of a corporation be approved by the owners of at least the majority of the outstanding shares of that corporation, unless a different vote is provided for in our Articles of Incorporation. Our Articles of Incorporation do not provide for a super-majority voting requirement in order to approve any such transactions. Nevada law also gives appraisal rights for some mergers or exchanges. Under Nevada law, a stockholder does not have the right to dissent with respect to: o a sale of assets or reorganization, or o any plan of merger or any plan of exchange, if the shares held by the stockholder are part of a class of shares which are listed on a national securities exchange or the Nasdaq National Market System, or are held of record by not less than 2,000 stockholders, and the stockholder is not required to accept for his shares any consideration other than shares of a corporation that, immediately after the effective time of the merger or exchange, will be part of a class of shares which are listed on a national securities exchange or the Nasdaq National Market System, or are held of record by not less than 2,000 holders. The Nevada Private Corporation Law also has three provisions designed to deter take-over attempts: Control Share Acquisition Provisions. Under Nevada law, when a person has acquired or offers to acquire one-fifth, one-third or a majority of the stock of a corporation, a stockholders meeting must be held after delivery of an "offeror's" statement, at the offeror's expense, so that the stockholders of the corporation can vote on whether the shares proposed to be acquired can exercise voting rights. Except as otherwise provided in a corporation's articles of incorporation, the approval of the majority of the outstanding stock not held by the offeror is required so that the stock held by the offeror will have voting rights. The control share acquisition provisions are applicable to any acquisition of a controlling interest, unless the articles of incorporation or by-laws of a corporation in effect on the tenth day following the acquisition of a controlling interest by an acquiring person provides that the control share acquisition provisions do not apply. We have not elected out of the control share acquisition provisions of Nevada law. 50 Combination Moratorium Provision. Nevada law provides that a corporation may not engage in any "combinations," which is broadly defined to include mergers, sales and leases of assets, issuances of securities and similar transactions with an "interested stockholder," which is defined as the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the voting power of the corporation, and affiliates of their associates for three years after an interested stockholder's date of acquiring the shares, unless the combination or the purchase of the shares by the interested stockholder is first approved by the board of directors. After the initial three-year period, any combination must still be approved by a majority of the voting power not beneficially owned by the interested stockholder or the interested stockholder's affiliates or associates, unless the aggregate amount of cash and the market value of the consideration other than cash that could be received by stockholders as a result of the combination is at least equal to the higher of the highest bid per share of each class or series of shares, including the Common Stock, on the date of the announcement of the combination or on the date the interested stockholder acquired the shares, or for holders of preferred stock, the highest liquidation value of the preferred stock. Other Provisions. Under Nevada law, the selection of a period for achieving corporate goals is the responsibility of the directors. In addition, the directors and officers, in exercising their respective powers with a view to the interest of the corporation may consider the interest of the corporation's employees, suppliers, creditors and customers, the economy of the state and the nation, the interests of the community and of society and the long-term, as well as short-term, interests of the corporation and its stockholders, including the possibility that those interests may be best served by the continued independence of the corporation. The directors may also resist any change or potential change of control of the corporation if the directors, by majority vote of a quorum, determine that a change or potential change is opposed to or not in the best interest of the corporation "upon consideration of the interests of the corporation's stockholders," or for one of the other reasons described above. The directors may also take action to protect the interests of the corporation's stockholders. TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Corporate Stock Transfer, 3200 Cherry Creek Drive South, Denver, Colorado 80209. SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE We have 20,345,924 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. Approximately 12,358,920 of our outstanding shares are freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. All of the remaining approximately 7,987,004 of our outstanding shares of common stock are restricted shares under the terms of the Securities Act, however, 2,412,004 shares have been previously registered for resale and 4,000,000 shares are registered for resale under this prospectus. The balance of restricted shares are not registered for resale, but have been held for more than two years and are available for resale pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. In addition, up to 3,357,724 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants have previously been registered for resale and, when sold, will become freely tradable shares. We have granted options to purchase an aggregate of 1,646,800 shares of common stock under our 1998 stock option plan. All of the shares underlying these options have previously been registered and, subject to the applicable vesting requirements, upon exercise of these options the underlying shares may be resold into the public market. 51 We have also granted options to purchase an aggregate of 1,003,000 shares of common stock under our 2000 stock incentive plan. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market or the perception that such sales may occur, could materially and adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock and our ability to raise equity capital in the future. RULE 144 In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person who has beneficially owned shares of our common stock for at least one year would be entitled to sell, within any three-month period, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of: o 1% of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding; or o the average weekly trading volume of our common stock on the Nasdaq National Market during the four calendar weeks, preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with the SEC concerning that sale. Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to specific manner-of-sale provisions, notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us. Under Rule 144(k) as currently in effect, a person who is not one of our affiliates at any time during the 90 days preceding a sale and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, including the holding period of any prior owner other than one of our affiliates, is entitled to sell such shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144. Therefore, unless otherwise restricted, Rule 144(k) shares may be sold immediately upon completion of this offering. SELLING STOCKHOLDER AND PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION We have agreed to register the public offering of up to 4,000,000 shares held by the selling stockholder listed below, under the Securities Act, and to pay all expenses in connection with registering these shares. The shares may be offered and sold pursuant to this prospectus by the selling stockholder. Arie Halpern, a director and the principal stockholder of Corsa S.A. Holdings, the selling stockholder, has been a director of Intacta Labs Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intacta, during the past three years. In addition, Yechiel Sharabi, an indirect minority shareholder of Corsa S.A. Holdings, served as a member of Intacta's Board from May 1998 through April 2001. Mr. Sharabi continues to serve as a non-compensated advisor to the Board pursuant to an oral arrangement. Other than the foregoing, neither the selling stockholder nor any affiliate of the selling stockholder has held any position or office with us or had any other material relationship with us. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholder. The table set forth below is based upon information available to Intacta as of September 15, 2001 and provides the following information with respect to the selling stockholder: o the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder; o the number of shares to be sold by the selling stockholder; and 52 o the number of shares (as percentage of the class) to be beneficially owed by such selling stockholder after the completion of the offering assuming all shares included in this prospectus have been sold by the selling stockholder. The number of shares shown in the following table as being offered by the selling stockholder does not include such presently indeterminate number of additional shares of our common stock that may be issuable as a result of stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions or, in the case of warrant shares, the operation of any anti-dilution provisions. Pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act, however, those shares are included in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The selling stockholder may sell any or all of its shares listed below from time to time. Accordingly, we cannot estimate how many shares the selling stockholder will own upon consummation of such sales. Also, the selling stockholder may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of its shares since the date on which the information was provided, in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Beneficial Ownership of Beneficial Ownership Shares to be Common Stock Percent Selling Stockholders of Common Stock Sold After Offering of Class ------------------------------ -------------------- ------------ -------------- -------- Corsa S.A. Holdings........... 4,000,000 4,000,000 0 -- PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION We are registering the shares of common stock offered under this prospectus on behalf of the selling stockholder. As used herein, "selling stockholder" includes donees, pledgees, distributees, transferees or other successors in interest selling shares received from the selling stockholder after the date of this prospectus. We will pay all expenses of registration of the shares offered hereby, other than commissions, discounts and concessions of underwriters, broker-dealers, dealers or agents. Brokerage commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of the shares by the selling stockholder will be borne by the selling stockholder. As described under "Use of Proceeds" above, we will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholder. The shares to be sold by the selling stockholder may be offered and sold from time to time as market conditions permit in the over-the-counter market, or otherwise, at prices and terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then-current market price, or in negotiated transactions. These shares may be sold, without limitation, by: o a block trade in which a broker or dealer, so engaged 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 purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by that broker or dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus; o ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers; o privately negotiated transactions between sellers and purchasers without a broker/dealer; o a combination of any such methods of sale; and 53 o any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. The selling stockholder may effect these transactions by selling shares directly to purchasers or to or through broker-dealers, which may act as agents or principals. These broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholder and/or the purchasers of shares for whom these broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions). The selling stockholder and any broker-dealers that act in connection with sales of the shares might be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933. Consequently, any commissions received by these broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of the shares sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act of 1933. Because the selling stockholder may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, the selling stockholder will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. We have informed the selling stockholder that the anti-manipulative provisions of Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 may apply to it. The selling stockholder also may resell all or a portion of the shares in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that the selling stockholder meets the criteria and conforms to the requirements of that Rule. Upon being notified by the selling stockholder that it has entered into any material arrangement with a broker-dealer for the sale of the shares through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, we will file a supplement to this prospectus, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, disclosing: o the name of the selling stockholder and the participating broker-dealers; o the number of shares involved; o the price at which the shares were sold; o the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to these broker-dealers, where applicable; o that the broker-dealers did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus; and o other facts material to the transaction. In order to comply with certain states' securities laws, if applicable, the shares may be sold in those jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In certain states the shares may not be sold unless the shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state, or unless an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is obtained. 54 LEGAL MATTERS The legality of the common stock offered in the prospectus has been passed upon for Intacta by McDonald Carano Wilson McCune Bergin Frankovich & Hicks, LLP, Reno, Nevada.

F-28 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Intacta Technologies Inc. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Intacta Technologies Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. These standards require that we plan and perform our 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 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 consolidated financial position of Intacta Technologies Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and, at December 31, 2000, has an accumulated deficit that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ BDO Seidman, LLP Atlanta, Georgia March 9, 2001 F-2 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC.

F-7 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES NATURE OF OPERATIONS Intacta Technologies Inc. (the "Company"), a Nevada corporation, is a developer and marketer of software products based on its patented technology that, through its unique combination of compression, encoding and error correction processes, the technology transforms any data format ranging from text, graphic, audio or video from a binary file into INTACTA.CODE(TM) which is language transparent and platform independent. The Company believes that its technology provides solutions and applications that enable enterprises to bridge their communications and management information systems across digital and non-digital media by providing the secure bi-directional transmission and subsequent recovery and storage of data. Intacta Labs Ltd., an Israeli corporation and wholly owned subsidiary (Intacta Labs), primarily conducts product research and development in the high tech area of Beer Sheva, Israel, and is currently conducting new research projects expected to produce significant time and cost savings through continued development of a medium for transmitting and storing data in secure formats. From late 1997 and through 1998, the Company ceased production and marketing of its facsimile-based products used for transmitting and storing information, as a result of changes in the fax market, which resulted in reduced demand for its fax related products. The Company altered its strategy to emphasize the licensing of its core technology rather than the development and sale of consumer products. THE COMPANY On May 31, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Intacta Delaware Inc. (Intacta), a Delaware corporation, and Intacta Labs in exchange for 11,486,000 shares of the Company's $.0001 par value common stock valued at $1. The value of Intacta and Intacta Labs at the time of the acquisition approximated the aggregate accumulated deficits of the two companies to that date. The companies agreed that the value per common stock share contemplated in the agreement approximated the market trading value at the time of the initial discussions and the signing of the letter of intent. For accounting purposes, the acquisition has been treated as an acquisition of the Company by Intacta and Intacta Labs, with the combined entity of Intacta and Intacta Labs, companies under common control, as the acquirer (reverse acquisition). As such, in conjunction with the acquisition, the historical financial statements of the acquirer replaced the historical financial statements of the Company. Since the Company, prior to the reverse acquisition, was a public shell corporation with no significant operations, pro forma information giving effect to the acquisition is not presented. All share and per share data, prior to the acquisition, have been restated to reflect the stock issuance as a recapitalization of Intacta. The shares held by the shareholders of the F-8 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ Company, prior to the acquisition (5,185,000 shares), have been recognized as if they were issued in connection with the acquisition of the Company by Intacta. Since the former shareholder of Intacta and Intacta Labs received approximately 69% of the shares in the Company immediately after the acquisition, the financial statements for periods prior to the recapitalization are those of Intacta and Intacta Labs. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally ranging from three to seven years. PATENTS Patents are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the patents, generally ten years. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, accumulated amortization amounted to approximately $91,200 and $72,100, respectively. F-9 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ LONG-LIVED ASSETS Long-lived assets, such as patents and property and equipment, are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of these assets. When any such impairment exists, the related assets will be written down to fair value. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, costs related to the research and development of new products and enhancements to existing products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility of the product has been established, at which time such costs are capitalized, subject to expected recoverability. Therefore, the Company has not capitalized any software development costs related to its products, since the time period between technological feasibility and the general release of a market accepted product is not significant. REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles including Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. As such, the Company recognizes product revenue upon shipment if persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fees are fixed and determinable and collectibility is probable. During 1998, a majority of revenues were derived from the shipment of product, a portion of which was sold through resellers and distributors. Appropriate reserves were considered to effectively defer revenue recognition when material amounts of inventory had not been sold through to the end user. Generally, the right of return of these products was of short duration (90 days). No provision for estimated product returns was necessary based on historical experience. Maintenance and support arrangements and other post-delivery obligations are insignificant to the Company's revenues. License revenues are recognized based on actual sales of licensed software by a customer/licensee and are not recognized by the company as revenue until the final sale is reported by the customer/licensee. This is the time at which the Company believes that revenue recognition in accordance with SOP 97-2, as described above, has occurred. Support revenue is not integral to the functionality of the licensed software and is billed and recognized as incurred. F-10 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ The Company recognized consulting fee revenue during 2000 that was derived from certain software development and programming projects performed on behalf of customers. Revenue was recorded as the services were performed and these projects were started and completed within the year. The Company believes that it is in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, Revenue Recognition, which outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with the SEC. ADVERTISING COSTS The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 were approximately $34,900, $0 and $48,100, respectively. INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires an asset and liability approach. This approach results in the recognition of deferred tax assets (future tax benefits) and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be deductible or taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Future tax benefits are subject to a valuation allowance when management believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. LOSS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Shares issued during the year are weighted for the portion of the year that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. As a result of losses, all stock options and warrants outstanding at December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 were antidilutive and accordingly, were excluded from the computation of loss per share. F-11 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument, including certain derivative instruments imbedded in other contracts, be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The statement also requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. SFAS No. 137 delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, Amendment of SFAS No. 133, liberalized the application of SFAS No. 133 in a number of areas. The Company expects that the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation, an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25 (the "Interpretation") which is effective July 1, 2000. The Interpretation clarifies (a) the definition of employee for purposes of applying Opinion 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a stock compensation plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. Adoption of the provisions of the Interpretation did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements. FOREIGN CURRENCY The Company has designated the U.S. dollar as its functional currency for Intacta Labs, a foreign subsidiary. Financial statements of this subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars for consolidation purposes using current rates of exchange for monetary assets and liabilities and historical rates of exchange for non-monetary assets and related elements of expense. Sales and other expenses are translated at rates that approximate the rates in effect on the translation dates. Immaterial translation gains and losses are included in the consolidated statement of operations. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Fair values of cash and cash equivalents and short-term debt approximate cost due to the short period of time to maturity. F-12 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain 1998 and 1999 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2000 presentation. 2. GOING CONCERN The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a cumulative deficit of $22,222,400 through December 31, 2000, and has incurred losses of $4,551,200, $3,617,600 and $3,145,800 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. These losses were primarily the result of the decision by the Company in late 1997 to curtail further production and marketing of its facsimile-based products upon realization that the market potential for such products was diminished, and by the significant overhead costs required to support research, development and marketing efforts for the Company's INTACTA.CODE related technology. These conditions give rise to substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Through the first half of 2000, the Company's marketing and sales efforts were reduced and the Company focused its efforts on design revisions to its core applications without the benefit of significant cash flow from operations. In the second half of 2000, primarily as a result of additional resources, marketing efforts increased and, in addition to marketing its technology for licensing arrangements, the Company focused on the marketing of its suite of INTACTA.CODE Software Developments Kits (SDK) products, which were subsequently launched in March 2001. As a result of the foregoing, the Company has absorbed significant cash in its day-to-day operations and expects to continue to absorb cash in its operations during 2001 as it brings this new suite of products to market. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to actively market its new suite of products, as well as its technology, which it believes will lead to increased revenues, positive cash flows from operations, and ultimately to profitability. The Company may seek additional financing as may be required to fund research and development and marketing of its new products. If this plan materializes as expected, the Company anticipates viability for the year 2001 and beyond, though there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in these efforts. F-13 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ 3. INVENTORIES Inventories consisted of the following: December 31, 2000 1999 ================================================================================ Components $ 55,700 $233,600 Work in process -- 45,000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ 55,700 $278,600 ================================================================================ Inventories at December 31, 2000 and 1999 related substantially to computer chips and boards appropriately capitalized in accordance with SFAS No. 2, Accounting for Research and Development Costs which allows for the capitalization of materials if they have alternative future uses. The Company believes this to be the case in regards to these inventories. During 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Company wrote-off approximately $222,900, $46,100 and $240,100, respectively, of its inventory due to reduced sales and obsolescence, which is included in cost of products and components. 4. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment consisted of the following: December 31, 2000 1999 ================================================================================ Equipment $287,800 $459,300 Furniture and fixtures 63,400 48,100 Vehicles -- 14,100 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 351,200 521,500 Less accumulated depreciation (246,400) (365,400) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $104,800 $156,100 ================================================================================ Depreciation expense was $80,200, $94,200, and $92,100 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998. 5. ACCRUED EXPENSES Accrued expenses consisted of the following: DECEMBER 31, 2000 1999 ================================================================================ Salaries and related expenses $ 60,300 $ 32,900 Severance 51,700 27,800 Vacation -- 16,900 Deferred compensation 94,500 200 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $206,500 $ 77,800 ================================================================================ F-14 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ 6. COMMITMENT LEASES The Company leases its facilities and certain equipment under operating leases, which expire through February 2006. The facility leases require the Company to pay certain maintenance and operating expenses, such as utilities, property taxes, and insurance costs. At December 31, 2000, aggregate minimum rent commitments under operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more were as follows: Year Amount ================================================================================ 2001 $133,600 2002 153,000 2003 153,300 2004 144,500 2005 134,000 Thereafter 17,800 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $736,200 ================================================================================ Rent expense related to these operating leases was $127,600, $135,709 and $111,400 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. 7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY During 2000, the Company completed a bridge financing in which 25 bridge units were issued. Each bridge unit consisted of a $100,000 bridge note and warrant to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.50 per share. Aggregate gross proceeds in connection with this issue were $2,500,000. Additionally, a related party converted $250,000 of debt into 2.5 units, similar in all respects to the bridge units. A discount of $276,200 for the fair value of detachable warrants was recognized concurrent with this transaction. The fair value was determined using the Black Schole's option pricing model, with the following assumptions: Dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 40%; risk-free interest rate of 6.17%; and an expected life of one year. These warrants expire in 2005. These warrants expire in 2005. During 2000, the Company issued an aggregate of 250,000 warrants to a third party and its designees, which are exercisable at a price of $3.50 per share and were valued and expensed for services rendered in their entirety during 2000. The fair value ($92,000) was determined using the Black Schole's option pricing model with the following assumptions: Dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 40%; risk-free interest rate of 6.17%; and an expected life of one year. These warrants expire in 2005. F-15 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ On October 16, 2000, the Company completed a private placement of 2,333,310 equity units each consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $3.50 per share resulting in net proceeds of approximately $3.5 million after the conversion of the aforementioned bridge units, accrued interest and other loans into equity units. All warrants issued in connection with the bridge financing (687,500) remain outstanding at December 31, 2000. The Company issued 86,914 units, similar in all respects to the equity units, as a commission in connection with the private placement to certain parties. A related party received 21,600 of these units and cash commission of approximately $194,000. All warrants issued in connection with the private placement expire in 2005. 8. STOCK OPTION PLANS The Company has a 1998 Stock Option Plan and a 2000 Incentive Stock Option Plan (collectively the "Plans") that provide for, among other things, the granting of non-qualified and incentive stock options to employees, directors, officers, outside consultants and other third parties. Options vest over a maximum of five years and expire in a maximum of ten years. The Company has reserved 1,667,100 and 1,400,000 shares, respectively of its common stock for issuance under the Plans. As the 2000 Plan is subject to further approval by the Company's shareholders at its 2001 Annual Meeting, no shares have been granted from this Plan. F-16 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ A summary of stock option transactions for the above plans are as follows: Weighted average Number of shares exercise price ================================================================================ Outstanding at December 31, 1997 -- -- Granted 1,005,000 $ 1.50 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 1998 1,005,000 1.50 Granted 370,000 3.49 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 1999 1,375,000 2.03 Granted 96,800 3.03 Exercised (16,700) 1.50 Forfeited (78,300) 1.50 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outstanding at December 31, 2000 1,376,800 $ 2.14 ================================================================================ Weighted average Options exercisable Number of shares exercise price ================================================================================ December 31, 1999 410,000 $ 1.50 December 31, 2000 854,000 1.82 ================================================================================ Required disclosures for options outstanding at December 31, 2000 are as follows: Weighted average Exercise Number outstanding at remaining Weighted average price December 31, 2000 contractual life exercise price ================================================================================ $1.50 985,000 .43 $1.50 2.00 46,800 5.01 2.00 4.00 345,000 1.43 4.00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1,376,800 .83 2.14 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The weighted average fair value of all options, calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, granted during 2000, 1999, and 1998 is $1.04, $1.38 and $2.98 per share, respectively. The Company applies both Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB No. 25), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations and SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation in accounting for its stock option plans. Options granted to employees and directors are accounted for under APB No. 25 and compensation expense is recognized for the intrinsic value of the options granted. Options granted to all others are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and compensation expense is recognized for the fair value of the options granted. SFAS No. 123 also requires that the Company provide pro forma information F-17 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ regarding the net loss as if the compensation cost for the Company's Plans had been determined in accordance with the fair market value method for all options. The Company estimates the fair value of all stock options at the grant date using the Black Schole's option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for 2000, 1999 and 1998: Dividend yield of 0 in all years; expected volatility of 75% in 2000 and 40% in 1999 and 1998; risk-free interest rate of 6.36% in 2000, 5.23% in 1999 and 5.47% in 1998; and an expected life of 4.00 years in 2000, 2.61 years in 1999 and 2.55 years in 1998. Under the accounting provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss and basic and diluted loss per common share would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below: Years ended December 31, 2000 1999 1998 ================================================================================ Net loss, as reported $ (4,551,200) $ (3,617,600) $ (3,145,800) Pro forma (4,690,885) (3,736,400) (3,183,000) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Basic and diluted loss per share, as reported $ (0.25) $ (0.20) $ (0.19) Pro forma (0.25) (0.21) (0.19) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS During 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Company received administrative, consulting, management and marketing services from several organizations that are owned by directors or shareholders of the Company. These services aggregated approximately $592,100, $346,300 and $294,200 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively of which $472,100, $226,300 and $229,500 have been included in general and administrative expenses and $120,000, $120,000 and $64,700 have been included in research and development expenses.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ================================================================================ ================================================================================ The effective tax rate on income before taxes differs from the U.S. statutory rate. The following summary reconciles taxes at the U.S. statutory rate with the effective rates: December 31, 2000 1999 ================================================================================ Taxes on income at U.S. statutory rate (34.0)% (34.0)% State income taxes, net of federal benefit (2.6) (4.0) Foreign and U.S. tax effect attributable to foreign operations 14.5 21.9 Change in valuation allowance 21.2 16.0 Other 1.1 0.1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 0.2% 0.0% ================================================================================ The Company has federal net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income, if any, of approximately $11,865,000. The benefits from these carryforwards expire through 2020. As of December 31, 2000, management believes it cannot be determined that it is more likely than not that these carryforwards and its other deferred tax assets will be realized, and accordingly, fully reserved for these deferred tax assets. 11. EMPLOYEE PROFIT SHARING PLAN The Company has a profit sharing plan covering all eligible employees meeting certain age and length of service requirements. Under the profit sharing plan, the Board of Directors, at their election, can authorize contributions up to a maximum of 3% of eligible participants' total compensation. For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 the Company made no discretionary contributions. For the year ended December 31, 1998 the Company made $2,500 in discretionary contributions. 12. SEGMENT INFORMATION During 1999, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" which establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in their financial statements. The standard defines operating segments as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Based on these standards the Company has determined that it operates in a single operating segment: the development, marketing and licensing of software and sale of ancillary components. Major Customers During 2000, three customers accounted for approximately 46%, 30% and 13% of net sales. During 1999, two customers accounted for approximately 53% and 40% of net sales. During 1998, four customers accounted for approximately 27%, 26%, 15% and 12% of net sales. Geographic Segments F-20 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high quality financial institutions and, as a matter of policy, limits the amounts of credit exposure to any one financial institution. As of December 31, 2000 the Company's accounts receivable are limited. However, the Company believes any risk of accounting loss is significantly reduced due to provisions for returns recorded at the date of sale, and ongoing analysis of its customers' financial condition. The Company generally does not require cash collateral or other security to support customer receivables. F-21 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC.

F-27 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES NATURE OF OPERATIONS Intacta Technologies Inc. (the "Company"), a Nevada corporation, is a developer and marketer of software products based on its patented technology that, through its unique combination of compression, encoding and error correction processes, the technology transforms any data format ranging from text, graphic, audio or video from a binary file into INTACTA.CODE(TM) which is language transparent and platform independent. The Company believes that its technology provides solutions and applications that enable enterprises to bridge their communications and management information systems across digital and non-digital media by providing the secure bi-directional transmission and subsequent recovery and storage of data. Intacta Labs Ltd., an Israeli corporation and wholly owned subsidiary (Intacta Labs), primarily conducts product research and development in the high tech area of Beer Sheva, Israel, and is currently conducting new research projects expected to produce significant time and cost savings through continued development of a medium for transmitting and storing data in secure formats. From late 1997 and through 1998, the Company ceased production and marketing of its facsimile-based products used for transmitting and storing information, as a result of changes in the fax market, which resulted in reduced demand for its fax related products. The Company altered its strategy to emphasize the licensing of its core technology rather than the development and sale of consumer products. THE COMPANY On May 31, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Intacta Delaware Inc. (Intacta), a Delaware corporation, and Intacta Labs in exchange for 11,486,000 shares of the Company's $.0001 par value common stock valued at $1. The companies agreed that the value per common stock share contemplated in the agreement approximated the market trading value at the time of the initial discussions and the signing of the letter of intent. For accounting purposes, the acquisition has been treated as an acquisition of the Company by Intacta and Intacta Labs, with the combined entity of Intacta and Intacta Labs, companies under common control, as the acquirer (reverse acquisition). As such, in conjunction with the acquisition, the historical financial statements of the acquirer replaced the historical financial statements of the Company. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, and the year ended December 31, 2000 include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. F-28 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, costs related to the research and development of new products and enhancements to existing products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility of the product has been established, at which time such costs are capitalized, subject to expected recoverability. Therefore, the Company has not capitalized any software development costs related to its products, since the time period between technological feasibility and the general release of a market accepted product is not significant. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board finalized FASB Statements No. 141, Business Combinations (SFAS 141), and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). SFAS 141 requires the use of the purchase method of accounting and prohibits the use of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS 141 also requires that the Company recognize acquired intangible assets apart from goodwill if the acquired intangible assets meet certain criteria. SFAS 141 applies to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for purchase business combinations completed on or after July 1, 2001. It also requires, upon adoption of SFAS 142, that the Company reclassify the carrying amounts of intangible assets and goodwill based on the criteria in SFAS 141. SFAS 142 requires, among other things, that companies no longer amortize goodwill, but instead test goodwill for impairment at least annually. In addition, SFAS 142 requires that the Company identify reporting units for the purposes of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill, reassess the useful lives of other existing recognized intangible assets, and cease amortization of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should be tested for impairment in accordance with the guidance in SFAS 142. SFAS 142 is required to be applied in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized at that date, regardless of when those assets were initially recognized. SFAS 142 requires the Company to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test six months from the date of adoption. The Company is also required to reassess the useful lives of other intangible assets within the first interim quarter after adoption of SFAS 142. The adoption of SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows in 2002 and subsequent years. REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles including Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. As such, the Company recognizes product revenue upon shipment if persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fees are fixed and determinable and collectibility is probable. Appropriate reserves were considered to effectively defer revenue recognition when material amounts of inventory had not been sold through to the end user. Generally, the right of return of these products was of short duration (90 days). No provision for estimated product returns was necessary based on historical experience. Maintenance and support arrangements and other post-delivery obligations are insignificant to the Company's revenues. F-29 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED License revenues are recognized based on actual sales of licensed software by a customer/licensee and are not recognized by the company as revenue until the final sale is reported by the customer/licensee. This is the time at which the Company believes that revenue recognition in accordance with SOP 97-2, as described above, has occurred. Support revenue is not integral to the functionality of the licensed software and is billed and recognized as incurred. The Company recognized consulting fee revenue during 2000 that was derived from certain software development and programming projects performed on behalf of customers. Revenue was recorded as the services were performed and these projects were started and completed within the quarter. The Company believes that it is in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, Revenue Recognition, which outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with the SEC. LOSS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. As a result of losses, all stock options and warrants outstanding for the periods presented were antidilutive and accordingly, were excluded from the computation of loss per share. UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2001; the consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000; and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000 have been prepared without audit. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2000 has been audited by independent certified public accountants. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements and related notes be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. In the opinion of the Company, the statements for the unaudited interim periods presented included all adjustments that were of a normal recurring nature necessary to present a fair statement of the financial condition and results of operations for such interim periods. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year. F-30 INTACTA TECHNOLOGIES INC.

GOING CONCERN The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a cumulative deficit of $24,945,100 through September 30, 2001, and has incurred losses of $4,551,200, $3,617,600 and $3,145,800 for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively and $2,722,700 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. These losses were primarily the result of the decision by the Company in late 1997 to curtail further production and marketing of its facsimile-based products upon realization that the market potential for such products was diminished, and by the significant overhead costs required to support research, development and marketing efforts for the Company's INTACTA.CODE related technology. These conditions give rise to substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Through the first half of 2000, the Company's marketing and sales efforts were reduced and the Company focused its efforts on design revisions to its core applications without the benefit of significant cash flow from operations. In the second half of 2000, primarily as a result of additional resources, marketing efforts increased and, in addition to marketing its technology for licensing arrangements, the Company focused on the marketing of its suite of INTACTA.CODE Software Development Kit (SDK) products, which were subsequently launched in March 2001. This marketing generated increased activity to its web site and initiated downloads of the offered Trial SDK. There is not yet any revenue impact from this product line. In addition to the above, at the end of third quarter 2001 the Company launched a suite of data communications products targeted to the health-care industry addressing new health-care information security regulations; the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). The Company's capital requirements continue to be significant and it is not currently generating revenues from operations to fund its operating activities. The Company anticipates incurring continuing losses in the future as it expands the development and marketing of its software products and technology. Based upon current estimates, management believes that cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund the Company's operating activities and capital requirements through the end of its first quarter of 2002. Unanticipated changes in economic conditions or other unforeseen circumstances may cause the Company to expend its cash and cash equivalents in a shorter period of time. As a result of the above, the Company's continuation as a going concern is substantially dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing that will be required to fund research and development and marketing of its new products as well as to fund its current operating activities. If significant revenues materialize and adequate financing is obtained, the Company anticipates viability for the year 2001 and beyond, though there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in these efforts. At this time the Company does not have any current arrangements with respect to other potential sources of additional financing and cannot assure you that additional financing will be available to it on commercially reasonable terms or at all. 3. SEGMENT INFORMATION During 1999, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" which establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in their financial statements. The standard defines operating segments as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Based on these standards the Company has determined that it operates in a single operating segment: the development, marketing and licensing of software and sale of ancillary components.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. The Nevada Private Corporation Law ("Nevada Law") provides for the indemnification of directors, officers, agents or employees for expenses including attorneys' fees, judgments and fines incurred in connection with any civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding to which such person was or is made a party, provided that such person acted in good faith and reasonably believed that his actions were in the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to a criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. Nevada Law also provides for the indemnification of directors, officers, agents or employees for some, but not all, expenses incurred in connection with any action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, provided that such person acted in good faith and reasonably believed that his actions were in the best interests of the corporation. Under Nevada Law, discretionary indemnification by a corporation may be made only as authorized by (i) the stockholders; (ii) a majority vote of a quorum of directors that were not party to the action, suit or proceeding; or (iii) independent legal counsel in a written opinion if so ordered by a majority of a quorum of directors not party to the action, suit or proceeding or in the event that a quorum of such directors cannot be obtained. Nevada Law allows corporations to provide, either in their articles, by-laws or by agreement, for the mandatory payment of expenses of officers and directors, as they are incurred in defending a criminal or civil action, suit or proceeding in advance of a final disposition, provided that the officer or director submits an undertaking to repay any advances if a court of competent jurisdiction ultimately determines that the officer or director was not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. Our Articles of Incorporation provide, to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada Law, for the mandatory indemnification of our officers and directors for expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with a civil or a criminal action, suit or proceeding to which the officer or director is or was or is threatened to be made a party. Our By-Laws further provide for the contractual right to officers and directors to receive mandatory payment of expenses as they are incurred in connection with defending a civil or a criminal action, suit or proceeding in advance of final disposition provided that the officer or director provides a II-1 written undertaking to repay the advances in the event a court of competent jurisdiction ultimately determines that such officer or director is not entitled to be indemnified by us.

II-4 ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment 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) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 14, or otherwise, the registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange 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 by the registrant 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. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that: (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, 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 497 (h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective. II-5 (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. II-6 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this Amendment No. 1 to the registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the city of Atlanta, State of Georgia on December 21, 2001.
