Questions and Answers
The following questions and answers are intended to respond to frequently asked questions concerning the above transactions. You should carefully read the entire Information Statement, as well as its appendices and the documents incorporated by reference in this Information Statement.
Q: Why isn’t Exobox soliciting proxies relating to the Special Meeting?
A: We have received written consents from the holders of a majority of the capital stock authorized to vote on the above named transactions. Under the Nevada Revised Statutes (“Nevada Law”) and our Articles of Incorporation this transaction may be approved by the written consent of a majority of the voting interests entitled to vote on it without a meeting called for that purpose. Since we have received the written consent of the necessary number of votes to approve the election of five (5) directors to hold office until our 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholder and ratifying the selection of Malone & Bailey, PC as our independent auditors for our fiscal year ending July 31, 2007, conducting a meeting of the stockholders is not necessary and represents a substantial and avoidable expense.
Q: What if I have lost my Exobox Technologies Corp. certificates?
A: If you lost your Exobox certificates, you should contact our transfer agent as soon as possible to have a new certificate issued. You may be required to post a bond or other security to reimburse us for any damages or costs if the certificate is later delivered for conversion. Our transfer agent may be reached at:

Salt Lake City, Utah 84107
Tel: 801-266-7151
Fax: 801-262-0907
Q: Can I require Exobox to purchase my stock?
A: No. The Nevada Revised Statutes do not give you the right to require Exobox to purchase your shares.
Q. Can I attend the Annual Meeting?
A: | You are invited to attend the Annual Meeting if you are a stockholder of record or a beneficial owner as of March 20, 2007. If you are a stockholder of record, you must bring proof of identification. If you hold your shares through a stockbroker, you will need to provide proof of ownership by bringing either a copy of a brokerage statement showing your share ownership as of March 20, 2007. Due to limited space available, only shareholders are asked to attend the Annual Meeting. |
Q: | What can be discussed at the Annual Meeting? |
A: | Under public disclosure rules, Exobox is not allowed to disclose material non-public information to its shareholders until Exobox first makes such information available to the public. Accordingly, Exobox can’t discuss our ongoing, confidential business dealings. |
Q: | Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting? |
A: | Exobox will publish the final voting results in Exobox’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q. |

Except as otherwise noted, it is believed by Exobox that all persons have full voting and investment power with respect to the shares indicated. Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a person (or group of persons) is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if he or she, directly or indirectly, has or shares the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security.
