To Our Shareholders:
You are cordially invited to attend the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Exobox Technologies Corp. on Thursday, January 20, 2011 at 10:00 a.m., Central Standard Time. The meeting will be held at Comfort Inn, 8080 North Davis Highway, Pensacola, Florida 32514.
Developing new technologies can create value of investors. Exobox’s Value delivery required constantly driving the development forward. Value may be lost if a technology program “waits” for funding or does not move forward for any variety of reasons. If the development of technology is not continually moving forward, funding increasing becomes more challenging and value may decrease. Given the current financial condition of the company partners and investors may not be attracted to this technology. This sums up the position the Exobox Board found itself with respect to its SUEZ Technology in October 2010. In review, the current board inherited a company with no physical or monetary assets, not one working computer, no continuing revenue or customers, no software that was ready to sell, 3 lawsuits, legacy issues, impending default on its secured obligations, technology that would require millions of dollars and time to develop and approximately $3.5 Million Dollars of debt and an outstanding Letter of Intent for all the company’s technology. Since October 2010 your board has been working hard attempting to develop a strategic business plan that would allow the company to simultaneously (1) cure its legacy and name recognition issues, (2) reduce its overhead, (3) settle its outstanding indebtedness, (4) settle its outstanding litigation, and (5) obtain a stable financial platform from which to operate. Once all the listed benchmarks are accomplished, the company will be in a position to economically reinvigorate itself and proceed with a substantially cleaned up balance sheet, acquire promised new technology, negotiate for financing and commence business operations in earnest. As we evaluate our position, it is important to remember that we are currently in default of our secured obligations and foreclosure of our technology is a possibility.
The Board’s decision to change its inherited capital structure and reorganize was not reached at without a protracted and difficult deliberation over time value. The board considers its decision to sell the current technology to be necessary in order to avoid foreclosure but to provide the vehicle to secure a financial structure which could possibly acquire newer technology, financing and other opportunities as they may present themselves. The Board also believes that preserving the Company’s listing will provide the company with the opportunity to acquire and access the capital funding required to advance any produce development pipe. Management urges stockholders to vote their stock in favor of the reverse split proposal.
Information about the Annual Meeting, including matters on which shareholders will act, may be found in the notice of annual meeting and proxy statement accompanying this letter. We look forward to greeting in person as many of our shareholders as possible.
It is important that your shares be represented and voted at the meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please complete, sign, date, and promptly return the accompanying proxy by fax to (888) 400-2991. Returning the proxy does NOT deprive you of your right to attend the Annual Meeting. If you decide to attend the Annual Meeting and wish to change your proxy vote, you may do so automatically by voting in person at the meeting. Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to attend and vote in person at the meeting, you must obtain from the record holder a proxy issued in your name.
Sincerely yours,
s/ Jacob P. Cukjati, President and Chief Executive Officer

Such requests should be addressed in writing to Investor Relations, Exobox Technologies Corp, 5780 Avenida Robledal, Pensacola, Florida 32504.
Revocability of Proxies
Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the person giving it at any time before its use by delivering to the Company’s Secretary, at the address of the Company’s executive offices noted above, written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy. Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to attend and vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain from the record holder a proxy issued in your name.
Quorum, Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes
Our common stock and Series A Preferred Stock (collectively “Capital Stock”) are the only types of securities entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Only shareholders of record at the close of business on December 17, 2010 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of December 17, 2010, there were 397,520,923 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote and 1,378 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding that on an as converted basis represents 126,776 shares of common stock and 126,667 votes. Each holder of record of shares of common stock on the record date will be entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting. Each holder of record of shares of Series A Preferred Stock on the record date will be entitled to ninety-two votes for each share held on all matters to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting.
Proxies properly executed, duly returned to the Company and not revoked will be voted in accordance with the specifications made. Where no specifications are given, such proxies will be voted “FOR” each of the three director nominees. It is not expected that any matters other than those referred to in this Proxy Statement will be brought before the Annual Meeting. If, however, any matter not described in this Proxy Statement is properly presented for action at the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies in the enclosed form of proxy will have discretionary authority to vote according to their own discretion.
The required quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting is a majority of the votes of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Capital Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, whether present in person or represented by proxy. The bylaws of the Company provide that unless otherwise provided by law or by the Articles of Incorporation, all matters other than the election of directors shall be decided by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes of the outstanding shares of Capital Stock represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. Shares of Capital Stock represented by a properly signed and returned proxy will be treated as present at the Annual Meeting for purposes of determining a quorum, regardless of whether the proxy is marked as casting a vote or abstaining. Shares of Capital Stock represented by “broker non-votes” (i.e., shares of Capital Stock held in record name by brokers or nominees) as to which (i) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote; (ii) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power under applicable rules or the instrument under which it serves in such capacity; or (iii) the record holder has indicated on the proxy card or has executed a proxy and otherwise notified the Company that it does not have authority to vote such shares on that matter will be treated as present for purposes of determining a quorum.
Voting
Proposal 1. Directors are elected by a plurality of the affirmative votes cast by those shares of Capital Stock present in person, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. This means the three nominees for directors receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the election of a candidate who receives a plurality of votes. Shareholders may not cumulate votes in the election of directors.
Proposal 2 thru 6.
Ratification of these proposals requires the approval of a majority of the votes of the outstanding shares of Capital Stock represented in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions as to Proposal 2 will have the same effect as votes against the proposal. Broker non-votes as to Proposal 2, however, will be deemed shares not entitled to vote on the proposal, will not be counted as votes for or against the proposal, and will not be included in calculating the number of votes necessary for approval of the proposal.
Solicitation
The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by the Company. In addition to soliciting shareholders by mail and through its regular employees, the Company will request that banks and brokers and other persons representing beneficial owners of the shares forward the proxy solicitation material to such beneficial owners and the Company may reimburse these parties for their reasonable out-of-pocket costs. The Company may use the services of its officers, directors and others to solicit proxies, personally or by telephone, facsimile or electronic mail, without additional compensation.
Shareholder Proposals
Proposals of shareholders that are intended to be presented at our 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders in the proxy materials for such meeting must comply with the requirements of SEC Rule 14a-8 and must be received by our Secretary no later than September 17 in order to be included in the Proxy Statement and proxy materials relating to our 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

In addition, shareholders must comply in all respects with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission then in effect and the procedural requirements of our Bylaws.

PROPOSAL 4
SALE OF PATENTS AND TECHNOLOGY
In December 2010, The Board of Directors voted to enter into a Letter of Intent and agree to its terms and conditions which would result in the sale of all its technology and patents to Burnt Hickory, LLC. (see Certain Relationships and Related Transactions also). A previous Letter of Intent that was inherited was not completed and thus the possibility of sale under its terms expired on October 15, 2010. Shortly afterward, the company’s default on its secured notes occurred. The company negotiated a new Letter of Intent with similar but lesser terms on continuing revenue, but it included patent infringement revenues. The Sale will provide continuing revenue to the company once Burnt Hickory, LLC successfully codes and markets the technologies software. The Agreement is attached as Exhibit A.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
Mr. Kampa, a former director and Chief Executive Officer who was accepted on the Board as of December 2009 as an “outsider”. Mr., Kampa resigned as Chief Executive Officer in March 2010. Before he resigned he secured the patents of the company with monies that were advanced by him and for unpaid salary. During 2010 other creditors secured the company’s patents. Subsequently, Mr. Kampa had lead a group of investors and previous company insiders in presenting to the company a Letter of Intent which was allowed to expire on October 15, 2010. Since that time, Burnt Hickory, LLC, Mr. Kampa is a principle in this company, negotiated another Letter of Intent to complete a Definitive Purchase Agreement for the purchase of its technology. The board is requesting shareholders to approve the Purchase Agreement. A copy of the Definitive Agreement is attached as Exhibit A-1.
The Board of Directors recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the sale of all of its technology to Burnt Hickory, LLC.
PROPOSAL 5
RATIFICATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ACTIONS
The Board of Directors asks its shareholders to ratify its actions for the preceding period commencing August 1, 2008 and ending December 27, 2010.
The Board of Directors recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the ratification of its actions for the period commencing August 1, 2008 through December 27, 2010.
PROPOSAL 6
RATIFICATION OF THE PROPOSAL TO GIVE THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AUTHORITY TO EFFECT A DISPORPORTIONATE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF AUTHORIZED and ISSUED COMMON SHARES
It has come to the attention of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) that there is a business need to be able to reduce the authorized and outstanding shares of the Corporation to stabilize the value of such shares, and for other good business reasons and plans for such reduction in the form of a reverse stock split have been proposed. Accordingly the Board has considered the need to decrease the authorized shares of the Corporation that will be done through a reverse stock split plan that has been proposed and reviewed by the Board, and the Board hereby approved a proposal to submit to stockholders vote for a disproportionate reverse stock split of the authorized shares of the Corporation. Shareholders are asked to ratify a proposal to give the Board of Directors the authority to amend the Corporations Articles of Incorporation which would reduce the Authorized Common Shares and concurrently approve a disproportionally decrease in the issued Common Stock of the Corporation through a reverse stock split. The authority would allow the Board to set a future record date to effect the reverse split which would simultaneously reduce the issued outstanding stock by a 1 for 15 reverse split (from approximately 417,121,000 issued and outstanding Common shares to approximately 27,800,000 issued Common Stock) and reduce the Authorized Shares of Common Stock of the company from 500,000,000 shares to 100,000,000. The estimated 417,121,000 issued and outstanding shares referred to above includes shares issued through the date of this proxy. There are an additional 7,600,000 common shares set aside under outstanding warrants and 12,891,784 shares set aside for outstanding option. The proposal would also give authority to the board to reduce the Series A Preferred Stock conversion basis from 92 shares to 7 shares. Presently there are 1,378 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding which represent the equivalent 126,776 shares of Common Stock, ratification of the proposal would grant the authority to the Board to reduce the converted basis to 1 for 7 or a total of 8,452 equivalent common shares. The proposal would also grant the authority to the board to reduce outstanding options and warrants by the same ratios. Under the proposal fractional shares would be rounded up. All of the proposals elements are subject to legal review by the company’s attorneys.
The Corporation currently has 500,000,000 shares of authorized Common Stock. Proposal 7 would allow the board to amend the Articles of Incorporation, set a record date and reduce the authorized shares to 100,000,000 shares thus reducing the Corporations annual fees and costs associated with maintaining its registration. As of the date of the Proxy the Corporation has approximately 417,121,000 of issued outstanding shares, which if the record date was today, would be reduced to approximately27,800,000 issued and outstanding. In addition, there are Series A preferred stock with a conversion ratio of 1 for 92 outstanding. The proposal would grant the authority to the board to change the conversion ratio to 1 for 7 from 1 for 92. Authority to reduce options currently outstanding of 7,600,000 shares would be granted, reducing said options to represent approximately 507,334 shares. If passed, authority to reduce outstanding warrants by the same ratio would be granted thus reducing present outstanding warrants from 12,891,784 to 859,453 common shares. It is noted that of the current 12,891,784 outstanding warrants, 5,400,000 are due to expire December 31, 2010 (equivalent to 360,000 shares). Presently the Board believes that the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation authorizing the Board to effectuate a reverse stock split with stockholder approval provides flexibility for both its management and business. Under terms of the proposal submitted to shareholders for vote, the Board would be given the authority to implement a reverse stock split of its authorized common class of capital stock without a correspondingly proportionate decreasing the number of authorized shares outstanding. The board is seeking the authority in order to be able to quickly deal with situations calling for the company to modify the capital structure, such as equity financing, convertible debt financings, certain types of asset sales, and other plans. All of the proposals elements are subject to legal review by the company’s attorneys.
The Board of Directors recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the ratification of the proposal to give the Board authority to disproportionally affect a reverse stock split.

Beneficial ownership has been determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act. Under this rule, shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date of this table. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares includes the amount of shares beneficially owned by the person by reason of these acquisition rights.

To our knowledge, except as indicated in the footnotes to this table (**) and pursuant to applicable community property laws, the persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by them.

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Exobox Technologies Corp., a Nevada corporation, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in previous Quarterly and Annual Reports filed with the SEC on Form 10-Q’s and K’s. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein.
Exobox was an enterprise and home user network and data security development company formed to capitalize upon the growing need for a modern, reliable, efficient, effective and proactive network and data security solutions.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
From Inception to July 31, 2010, Exobox has accumulated losses of $20,726,740. The company currently has no ongoing sales activity or continuing revenue. The ability of Exobox to emerge from the development stage with respect to any planned principal business activity is dependent upon its success in raising additional equity, debt financing, licensure of its patented technology, development of non-patented technology and software and/or attaining profitable operations. Management is attempting to seek additional capital. There is no guarantee that Exobox will be able to complete any of the above objectives. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding Exobox's ability to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – PATENTS
Patents are mainly comprised of legal services paid to a shareholder and patent application fees. Exobox began amortizing these costs since the patents have been granted. Patents were impaired as of July 31, 2009 for $50,591.
On September 15, 2009, Exobox sold its SOS Patents to Scott Copeland for $95,000. On November 1, 2009, Copeland sold these SOS patents back to Exobox for 1,250,000 common shares valued at $56,250 and also a royalty of 3% of any net proceeds derived from the SOS technology.
NOTE 4 – FURNITURES, FIXTURES and EQUIPMENT
Due to the severe financial problems encountered as the result of not generating revenue, the company was not able to keep up with lease payments for its office at 2121 Sage Road Ste. 200 Houston, Texas 77056. Exobox abandoned the lease in April 2010, some furniture, fixtures and equipment that were in this office were handed over to the lessor and others to settle, in part, $67,376 of rent payable. Net book value of the furniture, fixtures and equipment at the time of the closed office was $298,165. For the year ended July 31, 2010, the company recorded a loss on settled rent payable of $230,789 and a loss of $ 5,155 for unrecovered assets which consisted primarily of computers costing $69,924 with $64,352 accumulated depreciation.

ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (the "CEO") and our Chief Financial Officer (the "CFO"), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act")) as of the end of the fiscal year covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in providing reasonable assurance that (a) the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and (b) such information was accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Specifically, weaknesses were identified in the companies disclosure controls related to valuing and accounting for share-based payments and accrued expenses. We plan to remediate this deficiency in disclosure controls by monitoring personnel and their activities more closely and increasing the supervision and training of accounting and management personnel.
No changes in the companies internal control over financial reporting or preservation of assets during the year ended July 31, 2010 as compared to prior years that have been covered by this report could be located. The company’s internal controls have materially effected and are reasonably likely to materially effect its financial reporting for the period covered by this report.
Internal Controls of the company were not effectively applied. For the year ended the company paid $136,547 in auditing and accounting fees. The company was not able to file its income tax returns or keep state filings current. It was determined that the corporation did not obtain or ask for written reports or record of activities accomplished by its consultants, obtain competing bids for the purchase of assets, produce or keep written records of the disposition of assets or “sales bull pen” transactions, provide written board or audit committee approved internal controls, provide adequate training for its employees, approval of disbursements are not recorded in the board minutes , maintain invoices for asset purchases, and email retention may have been compromised. This discussion does not include all internal control deficiencies.
ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On November 25, 2009, former employee Theodore Ernst filed suit in the 434th District Court of Fort Bend County, Texas claiming unspecified damages. On January 11, 2010, Exobox through its attorneys filed a motion to transfer venue, an application to compel arbitration and answered the Plaintiff’s petition. The motion was granted on April 30, 2010. The Company has begun discussions to come to an agreement with Mr. Ernst.
On December 8, 2009, the company received a demand to repay Reginald Goodman $227,301 ($210,400 principal and $16,970 in accrued interest). To date, no suit has been filed.

In addition, a Notice of Default and demand letter was received demanding payment of a total of $16,551.13 ($15,987.63 promissory note and $563.50 of accrued interest) be made or Mr. Leibowitz would file suit.

On May 18, 2010, an attorney representing a Consultant to the Company, sent the Company a demand letter asking the Company issue him the shares due to him under his consulting agreement with the Company. The company intends to come to an agreement and issue the shares as called for in the consulting agreement.The shares have already been expensed in the first and second quarters.
We know of no other material, active or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest other than those referred to in this report.
We will vigorously defend ourselves in these lawsuits as finances permit. We believe that any of these matters could, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition. We cannot give assurance, however, that one or more of these lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the period in which they are resolved.
ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS
Certain Factors that May Affect Future Performance
The risk factors below supplement and should be read in conjunction with “ Risk Factors” under Item I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2009.
DEFAULT ON SENIOR SECURITIES
Subsequent to July 31, 2010 the company defaulted on notes which secure all of its patents and technology.
We have a limited operating history with significant losses and expect losses to continue for the foreseeable future.
We have incurred annual operating losses since our inception. As a result, at July 31, 2010, we had an accumulated deficit of $20,726,740. We had gross revenues of $14,420 for the year ended July 31, 2010, and a loss from operations of $4,538,720. As we pursue our business plan, we expect our operating expenses to increase significantly, especially in the areas of sales and marketing. As a result, we expect continued losses in fiscal 2011 and thereafter.
We may not be able to meet our current and future liabilities and remain in operation until we receive additional capital.
As of July 31, 2010, we have current assets of $ 0 and current liabilities of $3,512,385. Our current liquidity position does not allow us to meet nominal working capital needs. We will need $3,812,000 to meet our working capital needs through fiscal 2011. Any failure to obtain such financing could force us to abandon or curtail our operations.
We have substantial doubts as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
Because we do not have sufficient capital, we may be required to suspend or cease the implementation of our business plans within 12 months. Because of our going concern issue, it may be more difficult for us to attract investors. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain financing, our ability to develop our products further and upon future profitable operations from the sale of our products.
OTHER INFORMATION
On March 30, 2010, Exobox was granted its first patent relating to its Secure Environmentalization software. The company has three fully issued patents in the United States. The company has 18 additional patent filings pending, domestic and foreign.
