RECORD DATE AND SHARES ENTITLED TO VOTE
The close of business on August 16, 2004 has been fixed as the record date (the "Record Date") for the determination of the stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. Only holders of record as of the Record Date of shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value per share ("Common Stock") are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote per share on each matter presented to the stockholders for approval at the Annual Meeting. On August 16, 2004, there were an aggregate of 44,712,896 shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote.
PROXY SOLICITATION
In addition to the solicitation of proxies by the board of directors through use of the mails, proxies may also be solicited by eRXSYS and its directors, officers and employees
(who will receive no additional compensation therefor) by telephone, telegram, facsimile transmission or other electronic communication, and/or by personal interview. eRXSYS will reimburse banks, brokerage houses, custodians and other fiduciaries that hold shares of common stock in their name or custody, or in the name of nominees for others, for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in forwarding copies of the proxy materials to those persons for whom they hold such shares. eRXSYS will bear the costs of the annual meeting and of soliciting proxies therefore, including the cost of printing and mailing this proxy statement and related materials. eRXSYS has spent approximately $3,000 in legal and other expenses in the preparation of this proxy statement and other expenses connected with the solicitation of security holders. It is anticipated that eRXSYS will spend an additional $3,000 in solicitation of security holders before the meeting is held.
Any questions or requests for assistance regarding eRXSYS proxies and related materials may be directed in writing to the Chief Executive Officer, David Parker, 18662 MacArthur Blvd., Suite #200-15, Irvine, California, 92612.
VOTES REQUIRED
The affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the shares of Common Stock voting on the matter is required for the election of directors. Votes may be cast in favor of the election of directors or withheld. Votes that are withheld will be counted for the purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum but will have no other effect on the election of directors.
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date is required for the approval of the amendment of eRXSYS Articles of Incorporation.
In order to confirm the appointment of Squar, Milner, Reehl & Williamson, LLP as auditors for the Company, a quorum must be present and the votes cast in favor of ratifying the plan must exceed the number of votes cast in opposition to the plan.
Stockholders may vote in favor of or against any of these proposals, or they may abstain. Abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum and will have the same effect as a vote against the proposals listed in this proxy statement.
Shares held in "street name" by brokers or nominees who indicate on their proxies that they do not have discretionary authority to vote such shares as to a particular matter will not be voted in favor of such matter and will not be counted as shares voting on such matter. Accordingly, broker non-votes, if any, will be counted for the purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum, but will have no effect on the election of directors or the approval of the other matters voted upon at the Meeting.
VOTING OF PROXIES
All Proxies will be voted in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If no choice is specified, the Proxies will be voted FOR the election of all the nominees to serve as our directors and FOR the approval of all of the other proposals set forth in the accompanying Notice of Meeting and on the proxy card. In the discretion of the Proxy holders, the Proxies will also be voted for or against such other matters as may properly come before the Annual Meeting. Management is not aware of any other matters to be presented for action at the Annual Meeting.
Execution of a Proxy by a stockholder will not affect such stockholder’s right to attend the Annual Meeting and to vote in person. Any stockholder who executes a Proxy has a right to revoke it at any time before it is voted by: (a) advising eRXSYS in writing of such revocation; (b) executing a later-dated Proxy which is presented to us at or prior to the Annual Meeting; or (c) appearing at the Annual Meeting and voting in person. Attendance at the Meeting will notitself be deemed to revoke a Proxy unless the stockholder gives affirmative notice at the Meeting that the stockholder intends to revoke the proxy and vote in person.
QUORUM
The presence, in person or by proxy duly authorized, of the holder or holders of 33 1/3 percent of the outstanding shares of the corporation’s common voting stock on the Record Date shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Shares of Common stock present in person or represented by proxy (including shares which abstain or do not vote with respect to one or more of the matters presented for stockholder approval) will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists at the Annual Meeting.
STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS
No proposals have been received from any shareholder to be considered at the Annual Meeting.
AMENDMENT TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
GRANT THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS THE POWER TO PRESCRIBE BY RESOLUTION THE VOTING RIGHTS, DESIGNATIONS, PREFERENCES, LIMITATIONS, RESTRICTIONS, AND RELATIVE, PARTICIPATING, OPTIONAL AND OTHER RIGHTS, AND THE QUALIFICATIONS, LIMITATIONS, OR RESTRICTIONS AS IT RELATES TO THE COMPANY’S PREFERRED STOCK.
Currently, the Company’s articles of incorporation provide that "the number of shares the corporation is authorized to issue is seventy million (70,000,000) shares of common stock with shares with a par value of one-tenth of a cent ($0.001) per share and five million (5,000,000) shares of preferred stock with a par value of one-tenth of a cent ($0.001) per
share." The articles of incorporation establish two classes of stock, but do not prescribe, or vest the authority in the board of directors to prescribe, the series and the number of each class or series of stock, voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions, and relative rights of each class or series. This proposal to amend the articles of incorporation will vest authority in the board of directors to prescribe by resolution the voting rights, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions, and relative, participating, optional and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions as it relates to the Company’s preferred stock.
The full text of the amendment if approved as proposed will be substantially in the form attached hereto as Appendix A.
EFFECTIVENESS OF AMENDMENT
If the amendment is approved by eRXSYS’ shareholders, such Certificate of Amendment will become effective upon its filing by eRXSYS with the Secretary of the State of Nevada, which is expected to be accomplished as soon as practicable after shareholder approval is obtained.

The aggregate fees billed by the Company’s auditors for professional services for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning were $0 and $0 for the fiscal years ended November 30, 2002 and 2003.
All Other Fees
The aggregate fees billed by the Company’s auditors for all other non-audit services, such as attending meetings and other miscellaneous financial consulting, for the fiscal years ended November 30, 2002 and 2003 were $0 and $0 respectively.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS DESIGN
AND IMPLEMENTATION FEES
There were no fees billed by the Company’s auditors for: (a) directly or indirectly operating, or supervising the operation of, the Company’s information system or managing the Company’s local area network; or (b) designing or implementing a hardware or software system that aggregates source data underlying the financial statements or generates information that is significant to the Company’s financial statements taken as a whole. As there were no fees billed or expended for the above services, the Company’s board of directors did not consider whether such expenditures were compatible with maintaining the auditor’s independence from the Company.
FORWARD–LOOKING STATEMENTS
Historical results and trends should not be taken as indicative of future operations. Management’s statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and is including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company, are generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project," "prospects," or similar expressions. The Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on the operations and future prospects of the Company on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions generally and the retail pharmaceutical market specifically, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Further information concerning the Company and its business, including additional factors that could materially affect the Company’s financial results, is included herein and in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

APPENDIX A
ARTICLE III
CAPITAL STOCK
Section 1. Authorized Shares. The aggregate number of shares which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 75,000,000, consisting of two classes to be designated, respectively, "Common Stock" and "Preferred Stock," with all of such shares having a par value of $.001 per share. The total number of shares of Common Stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 70,000,000 common shares. The total number of shares of Preferred Stock that the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 5,000,000 preferred shares. The Preferred Stock may be issued in one or more series, each series to be appropriately designated by a distinguishing letter or title, prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. The voting powers, designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions, and relative, participating, optional and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, of the Preferred Stock shall hereinafter be prescribed by resolution of the board of directors pursuant to Section 3 of this Article III.
Section 2. Common Stock.
(a) Dividend Rate. Subject to the rights of holders of any Preferred Stock having preference as to dividends and except as otherwise provided by these Articles of Incorporation, as amended from time to time (hereinafter, the "Articles") or the Nevada Revised Statutes, the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the board of directors out of assets legally available therefor.
(b) Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes, the holders of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock. No holder of shares of Common Stock shall have the right to cumulate votes.
(c) Liquidation Rights. In the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, subject to the prior rights of holders of Preferred Stock to share ratably in the Corporation's assets, the Common Stock and any shares of Preferred Stock which are not entitled to any preference in liquidation shall share equally and ratably in the Corporation's assets available for distribution after giving effect to any liquidation preference of any shares of Preferred Stock. A merger, conversion, exchange or consolidation of the Corporation with or into any other person or sale or transfer of all or any part of the assets of the Corporation (which shall not in fact result in the liquidation of the Corporation and the distribution of assets to stockholders) shall not be deemed to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation.
(d) No Conversion, Redemption, or Preemptive Rights. The holders of Common Stock shall not have any conversion, redemption, or preemptive rights.
(e) Consideration for Shares. The Common Stock authorized by this Article shall be issued for such consideration as shall be fixed, from time to time, by the board of directors.
Section 3. Preferred Stock.
(a) Designation. The board of directors is hereby vested with the authority from time to time to provide by resolution for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series not exceeding the aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock authorized by these Articles, and to prescribe with respect to each such series the voting powers, if any, designations, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations, or
restrictions relating thereto, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing: the voting rights relating to the shares of Preferred Stock of any
series (which voting rights, if any, may be full or limited, may vary over time, and may be applicable generally or only upon any stated fact or event);
the rate of dividends (which may be cumulative or noncumulative), the condition or time for payment of dividends and the preference or relation of
such dividends to dividends payable on any other class or series of capital stock; the rights of holders of Preferred Stock of any series in the event of
liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation; the rights, if any, of holders of Preferred Stock of any series to convert or
exchange such shares of Preferred Stock of such series for shares of any other class or series of capital stock or for any other securities, property, or
assets of the Corporation or any subsidiary (including the determination of the price or prices or the rate or rates applicable to such rights to convert
or exchange and the adjustment thereof, the time or times during which the right to convert or exchange shall be applicable, and the time or times
during which a particular price or rate shall be applicable); whether the shares of any series of Preferred Stock shall be subject to redemption by the
Corporation and if subject to redemption, the times, prices, rates, adjustments and other terms and conditions of such redemption. The powers,
designations, preferences, limitations, restrictions and relative rights may be made dependent upon any fact or event which may be ascertained
outside the Articles or the resolution if the manner in which the fact or event may operate on such series is stated in the Articles or resolution. As used
in this section "fact or event" includes, without limitation, the existence of a fact or occurrence of an event, including, without limitation, a
determination or action by a person, government, governmental agency or political subdivision of a government. The board of directors is further
authorized to increase or decrease (but not below the number of such shares of such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series
subsequent to the issuance of shares of that series. Unless the board of directors provides to the contrary in the resolution which fixes the
characteristics of a series of Preferred Stock, neither the consent by series, or otherwise, of the holders of any outstanding Preferred Stock nor the
consent of the holders of any outstanding Common Stock shall be required for the issuance of any new series of Preferred Stock regardless of
whether the rights and preferences of the new series of Preferred Stock are senior or superior, in any way, to the outstanding series of Preferred
Stock or the Common Stock.
(b)
Certificate. Before the Corporation shall issue any shares of Preferred Stock of any series, a certificate of designation setting forth a copy of the resolution or resolutions of the board of directors, and establishing the voting powers, designations, preferences, the relative, participating, optional, or other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations, and restrictions, if any, relating to the shares of Preferred Stock of such series, and the number of shares of Preferred Stock of such series authorized by the board of directors to be issued shall be made and signed by an officer of the corporation and filed in the manner prescribed by the Nevada Revised Statutes.
Section 4. Non-Assessment of Stock. The capital stock of the Corporation, after the amount of the subscription price has been fully paid, shall not be assessable for any purpose, and no stock issued as fully paid shall ever be assessable or assessed, and the Articles shall not be amended in this particular. No stockholder of the Corporation is individually liable for the debts or liabilities of the Corporation.
