CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS (Unaudited and expressed in U.S. dollars) Three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. MANAGEMENT OPINION: The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PortaCom Wireless, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly owned and majority- owned subsidiaries from the dates of acquisition or formation. All material intercompany balances and intercompany transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) and reclassifications for comparability necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate as a going concern which requires the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company's viability as a going concern is dependent upon the continued restructuring of its asset base, the financial support of shareholders and creditors and, ultimately, the generation of profitable operations. Although it is management's intention to pursue these options, there can be no assurance that these events will or can occur. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: a. 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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and to the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. With respect to the Company's operations, these estimates primarily relate to the underlying value of investments which will only be determinable based on future events. Management has applied its judgment to the information available to the date of the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements in making such judgment. Actual results could differ from estimates made in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements. b. Loss per share: Loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, which number of shares excludes escrowed shares that are contingently returnable to the Company's treasury. Fully diluted net loss per share has not been presented as the effect is anti-dilutive. -4- PORTACOM WIRELESS, INC. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS (Unaudited and expressed in U.S. dollars) Three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. INVESTMENTS AND OTHER ASSETS: On May 28, 1996, The Company announced that it had entered into a contract to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Asian American Telecommunications Corporation ("AAT"), an unrelated Los Angeles-based telecommunications services developer. By an agreement made as of September 11, 1996, AAT and the Company agreed to terminate all rights and obligations of either party under the proposed business combination. As consideration for this termination, AAT issued to the Company 2,000,000 restricted common shares, and issued to the Company warrants to acquire 4,000,000 common shares of AAT for a period of three years at a price of $4.00 per share. The Company paid no cash consideration for the shares or warrants. The Company's investment is recorded at the estimated fair value of the assets received in excess of the consideration payable to exercise the warrants. This fair value was established by reference to capital stock issuances made by AAT for cash consideration. In addition, AAT paid the Company non-refundable cash consideration of $1,000,000 as part of this termination agreement. The 2,000,000 common shares have been pledged by the Company to AAT until January 1, 1999 Pursuant to the Company's indemnification obligations under the termination agreement. These indemnification obligations provide that the Company grants to AAT a lien on the common shares against any costs or losses arising to AAT, or specified related parties, arising from certain claims or potential claims related to the original proposed acquisition or the termination agreement. At the date of these condensed consolidated financial statements, no claims under this indemnification agreement have arisen. On December 23, 1996, AAT entered into a business combination agreement with MAC. In connection with the Agreement, MAC offered to exchange all outstanding shares of AAT capital stock and all warrants to purchase shares of AAT capital stock for shares and warrants of MAC. In February, 1997, the Company agreed to exchange these shares and warrants of AAT for equivalent shares and warrants of MAC immediately following the consummation of the exchange offer. On December 26, 1996, the Company acquired an 86% interest in American Cambodian Telecom Ltd. ("ACT"), a newly formed Cambodian limited liability company under the consent of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications in Cambodia. ACT had been inactive to December 31, 1996. Under the Joint Venture agreement, the Company was required to contribute capital to ACT of at least 50 million Cambodian Riel (approximately $20,000). In addition, the Company was required to provide a refundable deposit of $200,000 within 45 business days of December 31, 1996. As of the date of this report, the required capital had been contributed and the refundable deposit had been made. Under the joint venture agreement, the company was required to contribute capital to act of at least 50 million Cambodian riel (approximately $20,000). In addition, the Company was required to provide a refundable deposit of $200,000 within 45 business days of December 31, 1996. As of the date of this report, the required capital had been contributed and the refundable deposit had been made. The Company reviews the underlying value of all investments on an ongoing basis and provides for declines in value that are other than temporary as they are identified. Any impairments are charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the security is established. At June 30, 1997, no such impairments have been identified in the investments in MAC or ACT. -5- PORTACOM WIRELESS, INC.

Of this amount $1,817,000 was received subsequent to, and $600,000 was received prior to, December 31, 1995. The promissory notes were due and payable after two years which ranged to December 1998, or after six months upon demand of the holder, and bore interest at 10% per annum, with interest payable upon maturity or conversion. The promissory notes were convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at conversion prices ranging from $1.49 to $3.25 per share. Pursuant to the debt subscription agreements, the Company also agreed to issue to the investors non-transferable warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 461,203 shares of common stock of the Company for a period of two years at a price equal to the conversion price of the notes. The conversion and warrant exercise prices were based on the market price of the Company's common shares at the date of their offering. On December 16, 1996, regulatory approval was received for the issuance of convertible promissory notes aggregating $2,417,000 and 461,203 warrants which were then issued by the Company.

These shares are releasable from escrow on satisfaction of certain predetermined tests set out by regulatory authorities related to the generation of positive cash flow from operations. Shares not released from escrow by September 9, 2002 will be canceled. Pursuant to the escrow agreement, holders of the shares may exercise all voting rights attached thereto except on a resolution to cancel any of the shares, and have waived their rights to receive dividends or to participate in the assets and property of the Company on a winding-up or dissolution of the Company. Upon release of the shares from escrow, compensation expense will be recorded. In October 1995, certain shareholders agreed to surrender their 5,950,000 escrowed shares which were then held under the escrow arrangement. In consideration therefor, the Company agreed to issue 314,762 shares of -8- common stock at a deemed price of $2.00 per share. Although the escrowed shares have been irrevocably canceled by the Company during 1996, the issuance of the 314,762 shares continues to be subject to the removal of the Company from the jurisdiction of both the Vancouver Stock Exchange and the British Columbia Securities Commission. (f) Shares to be issued on settlement of debt: In October, 1995 the Company began to enter into written agreements to settle indebtedness in the aggregate amount of approximately $2,809,000 for cash or share consideration. These agreements were subject to regulatory approval. In May, 1996, the Company received regulatory approval and completed the settlement of $2,513,121 of such debt through the issuance of a total of 1,256,561 shares of common stock. As of March 31, 1997 53,675 shares continue to be reserved for issuance when allowable. As of June 30, 1997, the outstanding accounts payable of the Company's closed subsidiaries accounts for approximately $90,000 of total accounts payable.

(h) List of Directors: R. Keith Alexander, Howard Frantom, Keith Hay, Stephen Leahy, Douglas MacLellan, Stephen Stephens. 6. CONTINGENT LIABILITY: During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company emigrated from Canada. Subject to final determination by the income tax authorities in Canada, management does not believe that any tax liability arose on the emigration, and no income tax liability is currently outstanding in Canada. The Company has loss carry forwards in the United States of approximately $9,000,000 expiring to 2011. The potential benefit of these losses of approximately $3,600,000 has been fully offset by a valuation reserve. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect no provision for income taxes. 7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS: Related party transactions not disclosed elsewhere in these condensed consolidated financial statements include $205,932 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities at June 30, 1997 which is owing to a related party. In the period, approximately $123,523 of consulting fees were charged by related parties, while approximately $56,401 of management fees were charged by related parties. The Company has reimbursed expenses incurred by directors and officers on its behalf during the periods presented. -10- ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS BACKGROUND The corporate objective of the Company is to become a leading independent provider of wireless and wireline telecommunications services in selected developing world markets. Subject to receipt of sufficient financing on terms acceptable to the Company, it intends to pursue opportunities to build, operate and actively participate in cellular, wireless, paging, PSTN and long-distance networks in order to provide coverage and high-quality service in these markets. The Company's current business is focused on financing the build out of its joint venture in the Kingdom of Cambodia, assuming the current political crisis can be resolved, and the active pursuit (subject to financing) of similar opportunities in other emerging markets. Furthermore, the Company is actively pursuing opportunities to merge with or acquire one or more businesses with existing revenue-producing telecommunications operations. On May 9, 1997, the Company announced that it had signed, subject to certain conditions including regulatory approval, agreements in principle to acquire a controlling interest in Microwave Communications Limited ("MCL"), a paging telecommunications venture in the Republic of India (the "MCL Transactions"), which agreements were to have been consummated by July 15, 1997. As the agreements have not been consummated and have, accordingly, expired, the Company, as of the date of this report, is negotiating an extension to the acquisition. There is no assurance at this time that an extension will be granted. The Company also owns an interest in a telecommunications business based in the Peoples Republic of China. The Company was formed as a British Columbia, Canada corporation in 1989. On December 23, 1996, the Company reincorporated from British Columbia to Wyoming pursuant to a procedure known as a "continuance", and on December 24, 1996, the Company merged with its wholly owned Delaware subsidiary and thereby reincorporated into Delaware. The Delaware subsidiary had been formed in 1994 for the purpose of the merger, which had been postponed for business reasons. The Company presently conducts business operations both directly and through one wholly owned U.S. subsidiary, PortaCom International, Ltd. ("PIL"). The Company also has three other wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries which are not presently operating: Extreme Telecom, Inc. ("Telecom"), PCBX Systems, Inc. ("PCBX"), and Extreme Laboratories, Inc., formerly known as Spheric Audio Laboratories, Inc. ("Laboratories"). Since 1994, both directly and through its PIL subsidiary, the Company has engaged in initial stage efforts to evaluate the feasibility of, and attempt to secure, licensing opportunities and joint venture arrangements for the operation of wireless telephone networks as well as other state-of-the-art mobile radio communication systems and new telephone technologies. Although the establishment and operation of wireless telephone networks and other advanced communications systems will be investigated by the Company wherever strategic opportunities arise, its principal efforts are presently focused (as of the date of this report) upon certain Asian emerging markets, including Cambodia, India, China, Bangladesh and Vietnam. The Company, in December 1996, entered into a joint venture agreement through which it controls a limited liability company which holds a twenty-five (25) year renewable licence to -11- develop a digital mobile wireless system in the Kingdom of Cambodia. On May 9, 1997, the Company announced that it had signed, subject to certain conditions including regulatory approval, agreements in principle to acquire a controlling interest in MCL, a paging telecommunications venture in the Republic of India; however, as neither sufficient financing nor requisite regulatory approvals had been obtained by July 15, 1997, the agreements expired. As of the date of this report, the Company was in the process of negotiating an extension, although no assurances can be made as to whether such extension will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. The Company has an interest through a shareholding in Metromedia Asia Corporation ("MAC") in a fixed line basic services license and a cellular service license in the People's Republic of China. The activities of the Company's PIL subsidiary to date have produced no licences or joint venture opportunities, and management does not believe that revenues will be realized by PIL in 1997. The Company formerly pursued a number of ventures in the consumer electronics and customer premise equipment sectors. PCBX developed and marketed a personal computer branch exchange which permitted the operation of a full-featured telephone network control system from a centrally located personal computer. Telecom entered into an agreement with Nitsuko America Corporation ("Nitsuko America") to distribute telecommunications products manufactured by Nitsuko America which were not then being distributed otherwise in the United States. Laboratories developed and marketed a line of audio speakers, as well as a proprietary audio recording and playback technology known as "SphericSound".-TM- Because of substantial losses, the associated costs of continued development, the lack of profitability by competitors and the uncertainty of marketing costs associated with commercializing both proprietary technologies and other manufacturers' products, management decided in 1995 to discontinue the development and marketing activities of PCBX, Telecom and Laboratories. Funding of the Company's operations since inception has been provided by: (i) revenues from the sale of PCBX products, and, to a significantly lesser extent, the products of Telecom and Laboratories; (ii) proceeds from the sale of securities undertaken in a series of private placement transactions; (iii) completion of an initial public offering on the Vancouver Stock Exchange during October 1992; and (iv) revenues generated as a result of the receipt of cash and securities of Asian American Telecommunications Corporation, the securities of which were comprised of common shares (currently held in escrow) and warrants to purchase shares of AAT's common stock and which were subsequently exchanged for an equal number of common shares (currently held in escrow) and common share purchase warrants of MAC. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 AS COMPARED WITH QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company reported net losses from operations of $1,483,689 and 2,818,166, respectively. This compares to net losses from operations of $1,193,781 and $1,818,739 for the respective comparable prior year periods. There were no sales in either period due to the fact that the Company's revenue-producing subsidiaries (which were also -12- generating significant net losses) were discontinued in 1995 and remained inactive throughout 1996 and the first two quarters of 1997. No sales are expected for the current year and the Company's current operations are not expected to generate revenues until 1998 unless the Company earlier concludes the MCL Transactions or acquires one or more controlling interests in businesses which produce ongoing revenue from operations. No assurances can be given as to the conclusion of the MCL Transactions or any future acquisitions of any such businesses. The Company's losses for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 represent losses of $0.12 and $0.20 per common share, respectively, as compared to losses per common share of $0.09 and $0.13 for the respective comparable prior year periods. Operating expenses increased in the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 to $1,483,689 and $2,818,166, respectively from $912,918 and $1,447,861 in the respective comparable prior year periods. Of these increases, the most significant factor was an increase in legal and accounting expenses (discussed below). The increases in operating expenses were primarily related to the increase in activities of the Company with respect to investigating and negotiating the MCL Transactions, and related efforts to obtain financing, as well as expenses incurred related to the deployment by ACT of a digital wireless telecommunications system in Cambodia as compared with the increases in the comparable quarter in the prior year related to the activities of the Company with respect to the proposed acquisition of wireless interests in China, and to the other expenses discussed below. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, legal and accounting expenses rose to $601,349 and $893,545, respectively, from $273,517 and $317,281 recorded in the respective comparable prior year periods. These increases were primarily related to the MCL Transactions and related transactions, due diligence work performed with respect to prospective transactions that were not consummated, and the activities of ACT, as well as to the extensive preparation, review and revision of disclosure incorporated into the Company's recent public filings and other related disclosure documents. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997, consulting fees rose to $402,328 and $715,435, respectively, from $187,290 and $451,427 recorded in the respective comparable prior year periods. These increases were primarily related to engineering consulting services incurred with respect to the deployment by ACT of a digital wireless telecommunications system in Cambodia Also related to the deployment by ACT of a digital wireless telecommunications system in Cambodia, and to the MCL Transactions, were increases in travel and entertainment, which increased in the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 by $156,646 to $208,423, and by $309,059 to $447,387, respectively, from the $51,777 and $138,328 recorded in the respective comparable prior year periods. These expenses are expected to increase throughout the remainder of 1997 along with increased activities related to the deployment of ACT (if the Cambodian political situation is resolved and if funding is obtained to pay service providers and vendors), and with respect to any additional licences, interests, or joint ventures which the Company may obtain or participate in should sufficient financing become available on terms acceptable to the Company. -13- Wages and benefits decreased in the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1997 to $94,897 and $233,360, respectively, compared with $177,720 and $257,435 recorded in the respective comparable prior year periods. This decrease, combined with the increase in consulting fees, reflects the Company's increased dependence upon consultants. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES In the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company realized net proceeds of $1,234,179 from the issuance of shares of common stock ($29,999 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997) in a private placement and exercise of share purchase warrants. The Company also issued a non convertible promissory note for $186,585 These activities contributed to a net working capital (deficit) position as of June 30, 1997 of ($2,521,974), which is up $(1,836,116) from ($685,858) at December 31, 1996. The Company has incurred cumulative losses from inception through June 30, 1997 of $12,298,391 and has not yet achieved revenues sufficient to offset direct expenses and corporate overhead. As of June 30, 1997, management does not believe that revenues will likely be realized by the Company for the near term; however, the Company expects that it will need to expend significant funds in order to develop the Cambodian Licence (if the Cambodian political situation is resolved and if funding is obtained to pay service providers and vendors), to fund the MCL Transactions (if extensions can be negotiated), and to obtain additional licenses and to form additional joint ventures necessary for the Company or PIL to provide wireless communications services in other markets where such opportunities are being sought. In addition, the Company will be required to make substantial payments towards amounts owing to certain key vendors and service providers before developing future projects. The Company would not generate any revenues, however, until such licenses are obtained and such joint ventures are operational. These continuing activities are likely to necessitate an immediate and continuing material increase in general office overhead and other costs such as general and administrative and travel and entertainment. Since inception, a substantial portion of the Company's operating capital has been provided through financing activities which have included an initial public offering and a series of private placements of common shares and convertible promissory notes. During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company sold 413,845 shares of common stock and 190,388 common stock purchase warrants in private placement transactions and upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants. The Company, as of the date of this report, is actively seeking additional financing through the private placement of equity or debt securities Although no assurances can be given as to the success of any financing through future offerings of securities, such financing will be necessary for the Company to continue as a going concern. Between December 19, 1995 and December 11, 1996, the Company arranged, subject to regulatory approval, private placements of convertible promissory notes having an aggregate principal amount of $2,417,000. The promissory notes were due and payable after two years which ranged to December 1998, or after six months upon demand of the holder, and bore interest at 10% per annum, with interest payable upon maturity or conversion. The promissory notes were convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at conversion prices ranging from $1.49 to $3.25 per share. Pursuant to the debt subscription agreements, the Company also agreed to issue to the investors non-transferable warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 461,203 shares of common stock of the Company for a period of two years at a price equal to the conversion price of -14- the notes. The conversion and warrant exercise prices were based on the market price of the Company's common shares at the date of their offering. On December 16, 1996, regulatory approval was received for the issuance of convertible promissory notes aggregating $2,417,000 and 461,203 warrants which were then issued by the Company. As of December 31, 1996, convertible notes aggregating $2,267,000 were converted to common stock. As of June 30, 1997, the remaining convertible notes aggregating $150,000 had also been converted to common stock. As of June 30, 1997 accrued interest on the convertible promissory notes aggregating $182,753 was payable by the Company. In addition, the Company has agreed to issue, subject to the removal of the Company from the jurisdiction of both the Vancouver Stock Exchange and the British Columbia Securities Commission, 115,296 "bonus" warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, exercisable at $2.70, expiring between December 31, 1999 and February 14, 2000. As of June 30, 1997, the Company had 1,793,817 (1,101,183 options and 692,634 warrants) options and warrants outstanding which upon exercise would yield to the Company additional proceeds in excess of $3.8 million. The exercise of existing warrants is impossible to predict with any certainty, accordingly, management can render no assurances that any material funds will be realized upon the exercise of such warrants, or whether such will be exercised at all. Rental expense accounts for approximately $3,000 of fixed expenses on a monthly basis. Personnel costs, which are expected to increase somewhat throughout the year, are likely to account for between $75,000 and $100,000 of fixed expenses on a monthly basis. Additional variable expenses, such as consulting fees, legal and accounting, travel and entertainment, utilities and miscellaneous equipment purchases (or rentals) are expected to account for between approximately $75,000 and $100,000 per month. In addition to fixed rental and certain personnel expenses, as of June 30, 1997, the Company anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $30 million during the remainder of 1997 and in 1998 in connection with the establishment and expansion of ACT's operations. The Company may also elect to exercise some or all of its MAC share purchase warrants during the remainder of 1997, the purchase price for which would be $16 million assuming the exercise of all of its warrants. In addition, the proposed MCL Transaction, should an extension on terms favorable to the Company be obtained, will require approximately $31 million. Accordingly, consistent with the Company's objective of continuing to develop opportunities to build, operate and actively participate in cellular, wireless, paging, PSTN and long distance networks, the Company has significant additional capital requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain financing in order to satisfy its present obligations and future requirements. Failure to obtain financing sufficient to fund current liabilities and short-term fixed expenses will have a material adverse effect upon the Company and its operations. Management does not believe that in the foreseeable future, and in any event not within the next 12 months, the Company's operations will generate sufficient cash flow to finance its working capital and capital expenditure requirements. The Company's operations will remain dependent on the Company's ability to obtain additional debt and equity financing (including from the exercise of existing warrants). In particular, since the Company does not currently have any sources of revenues from operations, and as a result of continuing general and administrative expenses -15- (including legal and accounting and including costs associated with the negotiations of the MCL Transactions), and ongoing funding requirements of the build out of ACT's operations, the Company is unable to meet any of its obligations to creditors at this time. At present, the Company has approximately $2.3 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and some vendors have threatened suit to collect. The Company is also presently unable to fund certain short term obligations of ACT, including required deposits for frequency allocations, prefix assignments, site leases, legal and accounting services, and architectural and engineering design work. In addition, should an extension be obtained, the Company will require approximately $31 million in order to conclude the proposed MCL Transactions, Although payments related to the MCL Transactions are subject to extension under certain circumstances, there can be no assurances that the required extensions can be obtained on terms favorable to the Company, or at all. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company will be required in the near term to obtain debt or equity financing. The Company has been able to secure financing in the past through loans from certain stockholders; however, although management may endeavor to make similar arrangements, it has no reason to believe that these will be available in the near term or in the future. While the Company will continue to seek both debt and equity financing, there can be no assurance that any such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. Failure to obtain such additional sources of financing will have a material adverse impact on the operations of ACT and the possibility of consummating the MCL Transactions. Without significant positive business developments, such funding may be difficult or impossible to obtain. Furthermore, without such additional sources of financing in the near term, the Company will not be able to continue as a going concern. Many of the economies in which the Company expects to compete are weak, volatile and reliant on foreign assistance. The uncertainty in these markets is heightened because of the evolving political systems which are developing from legacies of totalitarianism or civil unrest. In particular, the political and socioeconomic systems of the Kingdom of Cambodia are presently in a state of unrest as a result of ongoing military activity between the two ruling parties of Cambodia's coalition government. As a result, there can be no assurance that a market will develop for what the Company expects to be its primary products of its joint ventures, cellular mobile communications systems and paging systems. There can be no assurance that such telecommunications services will achieve market acceptance similar to that which would be expected in similarly developed countries elsewhere. Even if products such as the Company's are accepted, there can be no assurance that any of the countries in which the Company is present will not experience political or economic instability in the future. The Company does not have political risk insurance in the countries in which it currently conducts business. The Company intends to acquire interests in wireless telephone licences around the world, and will be subject to government regulation in each market it enters. The governments of these countries differ widely with respect to structure, constitution and stability and some of the countries may lack developed legal and regulatory systems. To the extent the Company's operations depend on governmental approval and regulatory decisions, the operations may be adversely effected by changes in the political structure or government representatives in each of the markets in which the -16- Company will operate. No assurance can be given that factors such as these will not have a material adverse effect of the Company's operations in particular countries. Government actions in the future could have a significant adverse effect on economic conditions in a developing country or may otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company and its operating companies and developmental stage projects. Expropriation, confiscatory taxation, nationalization, political, economic or social instability or other developments could materially adversely affect the value of the Company's interests in operating companies and developmental stage projects in particular developing countries. The Company may also be adversely affected by political or social unrest or instability in foreign countries. Such unrest or instability resulting from political, economic, social or other conditions in foreign countries could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Moreover, applicable agreements relating to the Company's interests in its operating companies are governed frequently by foreign law. As a result, in the event of a dispute, it may be difficult for the Company to enforce its rights. Accordingly, the Company may have little or no recourse upon the occurrence of any of these developments or if any of its partners seek to re-negotiate existing or future agreements. To the extent that any of the operating companies seeks to make a dividend or other distribution to the Company, or to the extent that the Company seeks to liquidate its investment in an operating company or developmental stage project and repatriate monies from a relevant country, local taxes, foreign exchange controls, or other restrictions may effectively prevent the transfer of funds to the Company or exchange of local currency for U.S. dollars. The Company's joint venture operations are and are expected to be outside the United States. Many developing countries have experienced substantial, and in some periods, extremely high, rates of inflation and resulting high interest rates for many years. Inflation and rapid fluctuations in inflation rates have had and may continue to have negative effects on the economies and securities markets of certain developing countries and could have an adverse effect on the operating companies and developmental stage projects in those countries, including an adverse effect on their ability to obtain financing. The value of the Company's investment in an operating company or developmental stage project will be affected by the currency exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the applicable local currency. As a result, such operations are exposed to currency fluctuations and the need to comply with a variety of foreign laws, including laws that control currency exchanges and currency repatriation. The Company does not hedge its foreign currency risks as this is difficult or impossible in the markets in which it operates, but may do so of possible and economically justified. There can be no assurance that the Company's operations will not be adversely affected by such factors. In particular, as of the date of this report, the Kingdom of Cambodia is experiencing civil unrest and political instability related to a seizure of power by military police action by one of the political parties comprising Cambodia's coalition government. The difficulties related to the events unfolding in Cambodia have, in the opinion of management and as of the date of this report, delayed several of the Company's deployment-related activities, and may eventually have a material adverse effect upon the Company's ability to develop the license in Cambodia. -17- The preceding paragraphs contain certain forward looking statements that are subject to inherent uncertainties. DEBT SETTLEMENTS In October, 1995 the Company began to enter into written agreements to settle indebtedness in the aggregate amount of approximately $2,809,000 for cash or share consideration. These agreements were subject to regulatory approval. In May, 1996, the Company received regulatory approval and completed the settlement of $2,513,121 of such debt through the issuance of a total of 1,256,561 shares of common stock. As of June 30, 1997 53,675 shares continue to be reserved for issuance when allowable, and the outstanding accounts payable of the Company's closed subsidiaries accounts for approximately $90,000 of total accounts payable. The Company intends to continue attempting to settle the outstanding debt on terms favorable to the Company, although no assurances about such settlement terms can be given. CANCELLATION OF PERFORMANCE SHARES In October 1995, certain shareholders agreed to surrender their 5,950,000 performance shares which were then held under an escrow arrangement. In consideration therefor, the Company agreed to issue 314,762 common shares at a deemed price of $2.00 per share. Although the performance shares have been irrevocably canceled by the Company, as of the date of this filing, the issuance of the 314,762 shares continues to be subject to the removal of the Company from the jurisdiction of both the Vancouver Stock Exchange and the British Columbia Securities Commission. BONUS SHARES AND WARRANTS In connection with the issuance of certain short-term debt by the Company in January 1995 and May 1996, the Company has agreed to issue, subject to regulatory approval, 85,590 "bonus" shares of common stock and 166,667 share purchase warrants, exercisable at $3.30, expiring on May 31, 1997. During 1996, regulatory approval was received for the issuance of 25,833 of these shares which were then issued by the Company. During the quarter ended March 31, 1997, regulatory approval was received for the issuance of 42,757 of these shares which were then issued by the Company. Additionally, subject to the removal of the Company from the jurisdiction of both the Vancouver Stock Exchange and the British Columbia Securities Commission, the Company has agreed to extend the expiry date of the 166,667 share purchase warrants to May 31, 1998 from May 31, 1997. As of June 30, 1997, the issuance of the remaining 17,757 shares and 166,667 warrants continued to be subject to regulatory approval. In connection with the issuance of certain short term debt by the Company in February, 1997, the Company has agreed to issue, subject to the removal of the Company from the jurisdiction of both the Vancouver Stock Exchange and the British Columbia Securities Commission, 120,000 "bonus" warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, exercisable at $2.75, expiring on February 19, 1999. -18- TERMINATED ACQUISITION On October 20, 1995, the Company announced that it had agreed to acquire PortaCom Wireless Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("PWC"), which had been developing new business opportunities in wireless telecommunications services in China, Burma, Laos, Bulgaria, Macedonia and certain other countries. The acquisition was approved by the shareholders on November 20, 1995 and remained subject to the approval of the Vancouver Stock Exchange ("VSE") and the receipt of an acceptable valuation of PWC. Upon closing, the Company was obligated to issue a total of 1,568,600 shares of common stock to the PWC shareholders. On July 18, 1996, the Company announced that it had terminated the acquisition as it had not yet received regulatory approval. The Company has determined, however, that it will issue shares of its common stock to Messrs. MacLellan and Stephens and to PJL, in the same amounts as previously provided in the PWC Agreement, in the event it is permissible to do so without receiving approval of the VSE. EFFECTS OF INFLATION The Company does not expect inflation to materially affect its results of operations, however, it is expected that operating cost and the cost of capital equipment to be acquired in the future may be subject to general economic and inflationary pressures. -19- PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
