Wireless Frontier Internet, Inc.
We are a wireless broadband Internet service provider located in Fort
Stockton, Texas. In addition, we are a traditional Internet service provider. We
currently provide services to customers in over 100 cities throughout Southwest
Texas and Kansas. Our strategy is to deliver efficient, reliable and
cost-effective solutions to bringing high-speed Internet access to rural markets
within the United States. We believe we have positioned ourselves to meet the
Internet access needs of organizations and consumers which require broadband
access to the Internet in their operating areas, but do not have access to cable
or DSL from the traditional service providers.
We offer broadband Internet service through a network of point-to-point
and point-to-multipoint wireless networks. We use terrestrial circuits to
connect the Internet backbone and then distribute the signal through a series of
towers and repeaters to customer premises equipment located at the subscriber's
residence or business. Also, by utilizing the expertise of our network
engineers, we deliver value-added services to our subscribers by offering
network integration services. These services are provided by selling, installing
and maintaining the hardware necessary for virtual private networks, or "VPN's,"
Voice over IP, or "VoIP," and by offering data integration services.
We focus our primary marketing efforts on providing wireless broadband
access services to customers located in rural areas of Texas and Kansas and then
throughout the United States. We also focus on cities of less than 150,000
inhabitants. We offer network reliability complemented by quality customer
support.
Wireless Frontier Internet, Inc. is a Delaware corporation. Our principal
executive offices are located at 104 West Callaghan, Fort Stockton, Texas 79735.
Our telephone number is (432) 336-0336, and our web site address is
www.wirelessfrontier.net. The information contained on our web site is not part
of this prospectus.
The Offering
In July through September 2004, we completed a private placement
transaction in which we issued 21,763,890 shares of our common stock and
warrants to purchase up to 10,881,913 shares of our common stock. We agreed with
the recipients of our common stock and warrants to register for public resale
the 21,763,890 shares of our common stock issued to them in the private
placement and the 10,881,913 shares of common stock issuable to them upon
exercise of the warrants issued to them in the private placement. This
prospectus has been prepared, and the registration statement of which this
prospectus is a part has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
to satisfy our obligations to the recipients of common stock and the warrants.
In connection with our private placement transaction in July through
September 2004, we issued to Casimir Capital, L.P. and certain of its designees
warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 3,264,579 shares of our common stock
as compensation for the services rendered by Casimir to us as placement agent in
the private placement. We agreed with Casimir to register for resale the shares
of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued to Casimir and its
designees.
In March 2004, we issued to certain investors convertible debentures and
warrants to purchase up to 6,575,000 shares of our common stock. In connection
with this issuance, we granted to these investors certain registration rights
relating to these warrants, including the right to register for resale the
shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of these warrants on a
registration statement filed by us at any time that we register any of
our shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, so long as the
registration occurs before the third anniversary of the date of issuance of the
warrants.
On or about October, 1, 2004, Jon Carnes purchased 300,000 shares of our
common stock in a private transaction.
Accordingly, this prospectus covers:
o the resale by certain selling stockholders of shares of our common
stock issued in the private placement transaction that was completed
in July through September 2004;
o the resale by certain selling stockholders of shares of our common
stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued in the private
placement transaction that was completed in July through September
2004;
o the resale by Casimir Capital, L.P. and its designees of shares of
our common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued to
them as compensation to Casimir for its role as our placement agent
in the private placement transaction that was completed in July
through September 2004;
o the resale by certain investors of shares of our common stock
issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued in a private placement
transaction in March 2004; and
o the resale by Mr. Carnes of 300,000 shares of our common stock.
Investing in our securities involves risks. You should carefully consider
the information under "Risk Factors" beginning on page 3 and the other
information included in this prospectus before investing in our securities.
Use of Proceeds
This prospectus relates to shares of our common stock that may be offered
and sold from time to time by the selling stockholders. This prospectus also
relates to common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants held by the
selling stockholders. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares
of common stock in this offering. We will, however, receive proceeds from the
exercise of the warrants, if exercised. The proceeds from the exercise of
warrants, if any, will be used for working capital and general corporate
purposes.
In addition, we agreed to pay Casimir Capital, L.P., our placement agent
in our most recent private placement, a cash fee equal to 4% of the gross
proceeds received by us from each exercise (other than a cashless exercise) of
warrants held by the selling stockholders and issued by us in the private
placement transaction in July through September 2004. Casimir will not receive
any fee in connection with the exercise of any warrants issued by us in our
private placement in March 2004. See "Use of Proceeds."

RISK FACTORS
Each person receiving this information should carefully consider the risks
and uncertainties described below and the other information that we have
provided in this prospectus before deciding to invest in our securities. The
risks and uncertainties described below may not be the only risks and
uncertainties faced by us. Any of the following risks could materially and
adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The
trading price of our common stock could, in turn, decline and you could lose all
or part of your investment.
Risks Related to Our Operations
Our litigation with Online Computer Services, Inc. could have a material adverse
affect on our operations.
On June 1, 2003 we purchased the assets of Momentum. Momentum has filed
suit seeking rescission of the purchase agreement and restoration of the parties
to their positions prior to June 1, 2003, as if no agreement existed. In 2003,
the revenue generated by the assets purchased from Momentum represented 24.6% of
our revenue for that year, and there were no operating profits from these
assets. We are vigorously defending this matter. In the event we are not
successful in this litigation we would no longer own the assets that we acquired
from Momentum and our revenues would substantially decline. This would have a
material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Regardless of
the outcome of the litigation, it will likely result in substantial costs and
diversion of resources and management attention.
We have a limited operating history.
We have a limited operating history. We may encounter risks and
difficulties frequently encountered by early stage companies in new and rapidly
evolving markets. We cannot assure stockholders that our business strategy will
be successful or that we will successfully address these risks. Our failure to
do so could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and
operating results.
Our ability to grow and expand requires additional financing, which we may not
be able to obtain.
We have historically needed to raise capital to fund our operating losses,
and although we raised $3,264,592 (before deducting expenses and placement agent
fees) through a private sale of shares of our common stock and warrants to
purchase shares of our common stock in July through September 2004, we
anticipate that we will need to obtain additional capital in the future. If the
need arises, we may attempt to obtain funding through the use of various types
of short-term funding, loans or working capital financing arrangements from
banks or financial institutions. We may also be required to raise additional
capital in public or private equity markets. Our ability to raise additional
capital in public and private markets will depend primarily upon prevailing
market conditions and the demand for our products and services. There can be no
assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital, when needed or at
all, or that such capital, if available, will be on terms acceptable to us. If
adequate capital is not available, we may be unable to repay our short-term
indebtedness or to grow and expand our business, in which case there would be
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We have incurred and may continue to incur losses.
We began operations in 1998 and have incurred net losses from operations
in each year since our inception. We currently intend to continue to invest in
infrastructure development, applications development, sales and marketing, and
acquisitions in order to execute on our business plan. We expect that we will
incur losses for at least the next 12 months and there can be no assurances that
we will ever be profitable.
Our operating results are likely to fluctuate.
We are unable to forecast our revenues with certainty because of the
unknown demand for our high-speed service and the emerging nature of the
wireless data access industry. Our revenues could fall short of our expectations
if we experience delays in completing the installation of our network or
entering into agreements with
- 3 -
additional channel partners. Our future operating results will be subject to
annual fluctuations due to several factors, some of which are outside our
control.
Our business model uses estimates to project revenues and cost, and those
estimates may be inaccurate.
Initial cost projections of providing high-speed reliable access to
businesses are extremely difficult to develop. Although variables have been
established for the mean installation cost and the cost of goods, they are
dependent on many other independent variables. Due to many factors, the costs
associated with network installation will vary substantially between
metropolitan areas. Because we have not previously operated in the fixed
wireless broadband or wireless LAN market, we may have failed to consider all
costs involved, and our actual costs may be significantly greater than our
estimated costs.
We have completed only a limited number of high-speed wireless installations.
The market for wireless data access services is in the early stages.
Critical issues concerning wireless communications and data access, including
security, reliability, cost, regulatory issues, ease of use and quality of
service, remain unresolved and are likely to affect the market for our
high-speed service. We cannot reliably project potential demand for our
high-speed service, particularly whether there will be sufficient demand at the
volume and prices we need to be profitable. Moreover, if the customer base for
our high-speed service does not expand at the rate required to support the
planned deployment of our network, our revenue and business will suffer, and we
may be unable to complete our planned deployment. In addition, competition to
provide wireless data access services of the type we offer could result in a
high turnover rate among our users, which could have an adverse effect on our
business and results of operations.
We must deploy our high-speed network in a limited time in order to compete
effectively.
Rapid introduction of our service is crucial to successfully compete
against other wireless access providers. If we are unable to deploy our
high-speed network in accordance with sales goals, we could incur substantial
unanticipated costs or be forced to revise our business plan.
We need to expand our sales and support organizations.
We currently have a small customer service and support organization and
will need to increase our staff to support new customers and the expanding needs
of existing customers. The employment market for sales personnel and customer
service and support personnel in this industry is very competitive, and we may
not be able to hire the kind and number of sales personnel, customer service and
support personnel we are targeting. Our inability to hire qualified sales,
customer service and support personnel may materially adversely affect our
business, operating results and financial condition.
We may be unable to attract and retain customers.
We have no way of predicting whether our marketing efforts will be
successful in attracting new customers and acquiring substantial market share.
Our past advertising has been directed toward a limited target market. We do not
currently have the technical staff required to quickly deploy service personnel
to multiple service calls. Businesses may fear contracts that are not
serviceable. This concern may hinder our ability to negotiate long-term
agreements with our customers.
Our customers may cancel their contracts with us.
While we may obtain firm, long-term purchase commitments from corporate
and/or residential customers, cancellations and non-renewals in excess of
anticipated sales-reductions would adversely affect profitability. The
short-term nature of our customer commitments and the possibility of rapid
changes in demand reduce our ability to estimate accurately future customer
requirements. We may increase staffing, purchase additional equipment and incur
other expenses to meet the anticipated demand of our customers but that
increased demand may not materialize, thus adversely affecting our ability to
make a profit. Additionally, any of our long-term relationships
- 4 -
may be terminated at any time, for valid or invalid reasons, with or without
recourse and termination of a significant number of these relationships could
have a material and adverse effect on our business.
We may lose market share to new and existing competitors.
We must timely implement our business plan because there is significant
concern regarding competing firms entering our target markets. We recognize
significant value in being the first-to-market in many different geographical
areas, since most bandwidth providers provide long-term contracts with
customers. We may be unable to secure contracts with some customers due to their
existing contracts with other service providers.
We depend on a physical infrastructure largely maintained by third parties and
subject to disruption by events outside our control.
Our success will depend upon the capacity, reliability and security of the
infrastructure used to carry data between our users and the Internet. While we
own most of the network, there are certain portions of the network, which rely
on segments owned, operated and maintained by third parties. Accordingly, we
have no control over the quality of maintenance provided to these third-party
network segments. A bandwidth carrier that provides poor service and has
frequent network breaks greatly limits our ability to provide quality service to
our clients. Our financial and business results may be negatively affected by
leasing poorly maintained infrastructure from various third parties.
If we are unable to negotiate leases for the installation of our equipment, the
deployment of our network will be impaired.
The deployment of a majority of our services depends on our ability to
connect via rooftops and tower locations owned by third parties. This space is
required for the implementation of Points of Presence, consisting of wireless
access points and transmission towers. We have identified sites that would
ideally accommodate the placement of our network equipment.
The owners of these buildings may not recognize the value of high-speed
access, or be willing to allow us to place network equipment on their premises.
In addition, there is substantial competition from a variety of communications
companies for these ideal sites, and a large amount of communication equipment
may previously exist at these locations. If we are not able to negotiate these
leases, or we are not able to negotiate leases on terms that are favorable or
acceptable to us, the deployment of our network will be impaired, and financial
results will be negatively affected.
Even if we were to successfully build our network, we may be unable to maintain
that network.
Once completed, each of our networks will be subject to the operational
risks inherent in a large-scale, wireless telecommunications system. The
operations, administration, maintenance and repair of these networks require the
coordination and integration of sophisticated and highly specialized hardware
and software technologies and equipment. We cannot assure that, even if built to
specifications, our networks will function as expected, in a cost-effective
manner. The failure of hardware or software to function as required could render
a network unable to perform at design specifications, which would require us to
pay for costly repairs or retrofits. We engage third parties to perform
operations, administration and maintenance of its networks and will depend on
the performance of these third parties.
If the industry adopts a wireless standard that is incompatible with our
equipment, we may be unable to operate in the market.
There are currently many competing standards in the wireless data
transport market, and it is important to recognize these standards. While
802.11b has become widely accepted, there is no guarantee that the industry's
reliance on this standard will continue. The 802.11b standard may be replaced by
another standard, and our antennas and transport mechanisms may not interoperate
with other standards and equipment.
- 5 -
The equipment we purchase may not be compatible with other brands.
Although 802.11b compliant equipment is required to interoperate with all
other compliant products, several respected wireless publications have proven
that some 802.11b equipment is not compatible with other brands. In the event
that we are required to use wireless equipment from a variety of manufacturers,
some of these products may not operate with our other installed wireless
equipment. We will take all proper precautions such as comprehensive initial
tests and tracking, in purchasing equipment from new manufacturers to ensure
that it is interoperable. Even with these measures, we may purchase equipment
that, under certain conditions, does not interoperate with other equipment. The
costs related to purchasing this equipment could be high, and would negatively
affect our profitability.
We depend on a limited number of suppliers, and we have experienced shipment
delays.
We depend on limited source suppliers for many of the principal components
of our network. Some of our suppliers have experienced shipment delays, either
as a result of capacity limitations at their production facilities or because
they were unable to obtain raw materials or parts necessary for the network
components they manufacture. Some of these supply shortages are ongoing to the
present date, and others occur frequently with no predictability in occurrence.
If we continue to experience these current or any future supply problems and are
unable to develop alternative sources of supply quickly and on a cost-effective
basis, our ability to obtain and install the equipment we need to implement our
service will be impaired. This impairment would cause delays in our network
deployment, and negatively affect our financial results.
We cannot guarantee future wireless developments.
While we believe that the future of wireless as a dominant transport
factor is certain, we cannot guarantee the success and future developments of
wireless technology. Other unpredicted factors may hinder the success and
integration of wireless technologies. While it is our hope to utilize the
scalability of all wireless network equipment, we do not know if new
developments will require significant upgrades. It is uncertain whether new
products will be able to be integrated into our network infrastructure, and we
cannot predict the feasibility of new technologies.
We depend upon key personnel and will need to retain additional personnel as we
grow.
Our success depends on the continuing services of Alex Gonzalez, our chief
executive officer and director. The loss of this individual could have a
material and adverse effect on our business operations. Additionally, the
success of our operations will largely depend upon our ability to successfully
attract and maintain competent and qualified key management personnel. As with
any startup company, there can be no guaranty that we will be able to attract
such individuals or that the presence of such individuals will necessarily
translate into profitability for us. Our inability to attract and retain key
personnel may materially and adversely affect our business operations.
We may be unable to manage effectively our growth and expansion.
We have grown recently and expect to continue the expansion of our
operations. This growth has placed, and will continue to place, significant
strain on management, operations, technical, financial, systems, sales,
marketing and other resources. The ability to manage the expansion to date, as
well as any future expansion, will require progressive enhancements or upgrades
of processes, equipment, accounting and other systems and the implementation of
a variety of procedures and controls. We cannot assure that significant problems
in these areas will not occur. Any failure to enhance or expand these systems
and implement procedures and controls in an efficient manner and at a pace
consistent with our business activities could harm our financial condition and
results of operations. The success of our internal growth strategy will depend
on various factors, including the demand for our products and services and our
ability to generate new and higher margin business. These factors are, at least
in part, beyond our control and there can be no assurance the our internal
growth strategy will be successful.
- 6 -
We operate in an industry with rapidly changing technology, and our success will
depend on our ability to develop new products and services that keep pace with
technological advances.
The market for data access and communications services is characterized by
rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards in both the wireless
and wire line industries. Our success will depend to a substantial degree on our
ability to develop and introduce, in a timely and cost-effective manner,
enhancements to our high-speed service and new products that meet changing
customer requirements and evolving industry standards. For example, increased
data rates provided by wired data access technologies, such as digital
subscriber lines, may affect customer perceptions as to the adequacy of our
service and may also result in the widespread development and acceptance of
applications that require a higher data transfer rate than our high-speed
service provides. Our technology or systems may become obsolete upon the
introduction of alternative technologies. If we do not develop and introduce new
products and services in a timely manner, we may lose users to competing service
providers, which would adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Our networks may become obsolete.
Each of our networks is expected to have a design life of not less than 10
years; however, there can be no assurance of the actual useful life of any of
these systems. A number of factors will affect the useful life of each of our
networks, including quality of construction, unexpected deterioration and
technological or economic obsolescence. Failure of any of our systems to operate
for their full design life could have a materially adverse effect on us.
We face a number of risks associated with potential acquisitions.
As part of our business strategy, we have made, and expect to continue to
make, acquisitions of complementary companies, products and technologies. We
depend on these acquisitions to grow our business, and there can be no assurance
that we will continue to find attractive acquisition targets. In addition, any
future acquisitions would be accompanied by risks commonly encountered in
acquisitions, including, but not limited to, difficulties in integrating the
operations, technologies, products and personnel of the acquired companies and
insufficient revenues to offset increased expenses associated with acquisitions.
Failure to manage and successfully integrate acquisitions we make could harm our
business, our strategy and our operating results in a material way.
We face a number of regulatory risks.
Federal and State Telecommunications Regulation. Certain of our operations
are subject to regulation by the Federal Communications Commission, the FCC, and
state public utility commissions. The FCC is restructuring access rates and
universal service mechanisms, which will affect our costs and rates for our
services. Changes in the regulation or interpretation of legislation affecting
our operations could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and financial condition.
Municipal and Other Local Regulation. Municipalities require us to obtain
building permits and licenses or franchises in order to operate radio frequency
equipment on towers and rooftops. A municipality's decision to require us to
remove our facilities or abandon our network could also be materially adverse.
In some municipalities where we expect to construct networks, we will be
required to pay license or franchise fees based on a percentage of gross
revenue. There is no guarantee that franchise fees will remain at their current
levels after existing franchises expire. In addition, we could be placed at a
competitive disadvantage if our competitors do not pay the same level of fees.
However, the Telecommunications Act of 1996 requires states and municipalities
to manage public rights of way in a competitively neutral and non-discriminatory
manner.

Risks Related to Our Securities
Our stock price is highly volatile, which could result in substantial losses for
purchasers of our common stock.
The market for our common stock is highly volatile which could cause
purchasers of our common stock to incur substantial losses. The trading price of
our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to, among
other things:
o quarterly variations in our operating and financial results;
o announcements of technological innovations or new products by our
competitors or us;
o changes in prices of our products and services or our competitors'
products and services;
o changes in product and service mix;
o changes in our revenue and revenue growth rates;
o departures of key personnel; and
o response to our strategies concerning the Internet.
Statements or changes in opinions, ratings, or earnings estimates made by
brokerage firms or industry analysts relating to the market in which we do
business or relating to us could result in an immediate effect on the market
price of our common stock. In addition, the stock market has from time to time
experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations which have particularly
affected the market price for the securities of many Internet companies and
which often have been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies.
These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our
common stock.
Liquidity on the Pink Sheets is limited, and we may be unable to obtain listing
of our common stock on a more liquid market.
Our common stock is quoted on the Pink Sheets, which provides
significantly less liquidity than a securities exchange (such as the American or
New York Stock Exchanges) or an automated quotation system (such as the Nasdaq
National or Small Cap Markets). We may never be accepted for a listing on a
securities exchange or an automated quotation system.
The sale by selling stockholders of a large quantity of our shares as
contemplated by this prospectus may adversely affect the trading price of our
common stock and our ability to raise capital in new stock offerings.
As of December 22, 2004, there were 66,456,481 shares of our common stock
outstanding, of which 13,066,421 shares were freely tradable (not including
shares tradable pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act). In addition, all
shares of our common stock offered for resale pursuant to this prospectus,
including shares issuable upon exercise of warrants, will be freely tradable. If
all of these shares were offered, based on the number of shares outstanding on
December 22, 2004, they would constitute 51% of our then outstanding shares on a
fully diluted basis. Efforts to sell all or a significant portion of these
shares during a limited period pursuant to this prospectus could have a
depressing effect on the market price of our common stock and could make it more
difficult for us to raise capital through sales of our equity securities.
Our management has wide discretion as to the use of proceeds from this offering.
The net proceeds from the exercise of warrants for shares of our common
stock will be used as described under "Use of Proceeds." Our management reserves
the right to use the funds obtained from the exercise of warrants for other
purposes not presently contemplated which our management deems to be in our and
our stockholders' best interests in order to address changed circumstances and
opportunities. These additional uses may
- 8 -
include, without limitation, the use of funds for repayment of debt. As a result
of the foregoing, our success may be affected by the judgment of our management
with respect to the application and allocation of the net proceeds from the
exercise of warrants.
We are subject to the SEC's penny stock rules which may limit your ability to
sell shares of our common stock in the open market.
We are subject to the SEC's penny stock rules. Penny stocks are stocks
with a price of less than $5.00 per share, other than securities that are
registered on certain national securities exchanges, that are quoted on Nasdaq
or that meet certain conditions. The penny stock rules require delivery, by a
broker-dealer prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure
schedule about commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered
representative and current quotations for the securities. The rules also require
that broker-dealers send monthly statements disclosing recent price information
for each penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market
in penny stocks. Because of the burden placed on broker-dealers to comply with
the penny stock rules, stockholders may have difficulty selling our common stock
in the open market.
The market for lower-priced securities has suffered in recent years from
patterns of fraud and abuse and is regulated in a manner that may negatively
impact the market for our common stock.
Prospective investors should be aware that, according to the SEC, the
market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and
abuse. Such patterns include: (i) control of the market for the security by one
or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (ii)
manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and
false and misleading press releases; (iii) "boiler room" practices involving
high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced
sales persons; (iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups
by selling broker-dealers; and (v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities
by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired
level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with
consequent investor losses. We can provide no assurance that such tactics will
not be employed in connection with the market for our common stock.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
The prospectus and any prospectus supplement contain forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Forward-looking statements include those regarding our goals, beliefs, plans or
current expectations and other statements regarding matters that are not
historical facts. For example, when we use words such as "project," "believe,"
"anticipate," "plan," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "should," "would,"
"could," or "may," or other words that convey uncertainty of future events or
outcome, we are making forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking
statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. You should note that many
important factors, some of which are discussed elsewhere in this prospectus,
could affect us in the future and could cause our results to differ materially
from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. You should read these
factors, including the information under "Risk Factors" beginning on page 3, and
the other cautionary statements made in this prospectus as being applicable to
all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this prospectus.
We do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements made by
us.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any proceeds upon the sale of the shares of common
stock by the selling stockholders.
We will receive the aggregate exercise price of the warrants that are
exercised by the selling stockholders, including warrants exercised by Casimir
Capital, L.P., our placement agent in our recent private placement. The warrants
that we issued in March 2004 are exercisable at $0.05 per share, and the
warrants that we issued in July through September 2004, including the warrants
that we issued to Casimir, are exercisable at $0.15 per share. Assuming exercise
of all the selling stockholders' and Casimir's warrants, the gross proceeds to
us would be approximately $2,450,724. We intend to use any proceeds from
exercise of the warrants for working capital and general corporate purposes,
including:
- 9 -
o to finance our growth;
o to develop our products and expand our internal infrastructure; and
o for capital expenditures made in the ordinary course of business.
In addition, we agreed to pay Casimir a cash fee equal to 4% of the gross
proceeds received by us from each exercise (other than a cashless exercise) of
warrants held by the selling stockholders and issued by us in the private
placement transaction in July through September 2004. Casimir will not receive
any fee in connection with the exercise of any warrants issued by us in our
private placement in March 2004.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The selling stockholders may sell shares in any manner at the current
market price or through negotiated transactions with any person at any price.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling stockholders, or their respective transferees, pledgees,
donees or any of their successors in interest selling shares received from a
named selling stockholder as a gift, partnership distribution or other non-sale
related transfer after the date of this prospectus (all of whom may be selling
stockholders), may sell the shares of common stock from time to time.
The shares of common stock may be sold in one or more transactions:
o at fixed prices that may be changed;
o at prevailing market prices at the time of sale;
o at prices related to prevailing market prices; or
o at negotiated prices.
These sales may be effected in transactions, which may involve crosses or
block transactions, in the following manner:
o on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which
the shares of common stock may be listed or quoted at the time of
sale;
o on the Pink Sheets or in the over-the-counter market;
o in transactions other than on these exchanges or services or on the
Pink Sheets or in the over-the-counter market (privately negotiated
transactions);
o through the writing and exercise of options, whether these options
are listed on an options exchange or otherwise; or
o through the settlement of short sales; or
o in a combination of such transactions.
In addition, any shares of common stock covered by this prospectus that
qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under
Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.
- 10 -
Selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with
broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in
short sales of the common stock and deliver the common stock to close out short
positions, or loan or pledge the shares of common stock to broker-dealers that
in turn may sell these shares.
In order to comply with the securities laws of some jurisdictions, if
applicable, the holders of shares of common stock may sell in some jurisdictions
through registered or licensed broker-dealers. If broker-dealers are used in the
sale, unless otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement with respect to the
shares of common stock being offered thereby, the selling stockholder will sell
such shares to the broker-dealers as principals. The broker-dealers may then
resell such shares to the public at varying prices to be determined by such
broker-dealers at the time of resale.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other
broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions
or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as
agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be
negotiated. Any profits on the resale of shares of common stock by a
broker-dealer acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts
or commissions under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and
similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares will be
borne by a selling stockholder. The selling stockholders may agree to indemnify
any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving
sales of the shares if liabilities are imposed on that person under the
Securities Act.
The selling stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security
interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they
default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured
parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under
this prospectus after we have filed an amendment or supplement to this
prospectus, as applicable, under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of
the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the
transferee, pledgee, donee or other successor in interest as selling
stockholders under this prospectus.
The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in
other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees, donees or other
successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of
this prospectus and may sell the shares of common stock from time to time under
this prospectus after we have filed an amendment or supplement to this
prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities
Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the transferee,
pledgee, donee or other successor in interest as selling stockholders under this
prospectus.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are
involved in selling the shares of common stock may be deemed to be
"underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act in
connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such
broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common
stock purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or
discounts under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are "underwriters"
within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the
prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the
shares of common stock will be the purchase price of the shares less any
discounts and commissions, if applicable. A selling stockholder reserves the
right to accept and, together with its agents, to reject, any proposed purchase
of shares of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not
receive any of the proceeds from the resale of these shares by the selling
stockholders. We may, however, receive cash consideration in connection with the
exercise of the warrants for cash.
If required, the common stock to be sold, the names of the selling
stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the
names of any agent, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable commissions or
discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an
accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective
amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
The selling stockholders and we have agreed to indemnify each other and
our respective controlling persons against, and in certain circumstances to
provide contribution with respect to, specific liabilities in connection with
the offer and sale of the shares of common stock, including liabilities under
the Securities Act. We will pay the expenses incident to the registration of the
shares of common stock, except that the selling stockholders
- 11 -
will pay all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and expense allowances
applicable to the sale of shares of common stock and all fees and disbursements
of counsel to any selling stockholder.
Shares of our outstanding common stock are traded on the Pink Sheets.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On June 1, 2003, we purchased the assets of Momentum Online Computer
Services, Inc. in exchange for the issuance of shares of our common stock. On
November 10, 2003, Momentum filed a complaint against us in district state court
for the State of Texas seeking rescission of the asset purchase agreement and
restoration of the parties to their earlier positions prior to June 1, 2003, as
if no agreement existed. Momentum's complaint alleges that we breached the terms
of the agreement as a result of the failure to deliver shares of our common
stock. The court issued an injunction requiring that any revenue generated from
the subject assets be placed in escrow and utilized to pay any outstanding
invoices in connection with the use of the assets. In addition, the court also
ordered mediation, which did not produce a resolution. On January 7, 2004,
Momentum filed a Petition in Bankruptcy. The Bankruptcy Petition stayed all
matters pending in state district court and all proceedings were transferred to
the Bankruptcy Court in Austin, Texas. On October 4, 2004, the parties appeared
before a Bankruptcy Court appointed mediator, but did not resolve the dispute.
The trial with Momentum is scheduled to commence on November 8, 2004 before the
Bankruptcy Court. Our management believes that Momentum's lawsuit is without
merit and intends to vigorously defend this matter.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN
BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth the beneficial ownership of our common
stock as of December 22, 2004 by (i) each of our directors, (ii) each of our
named executive officers and one additional individual who would have qualified
as one of our named executive officers but for the fact that he was not serving

executive officers as a group. Such persons have sole voting and investment
power with respect to such shares. Unless otherwise indicated, the address of
these persons is c/o Wireless Frontier Internet, Inc., 104 West Callaghan, Fort

known to us who owns more than 5% of our common stock and who would therefore
otherwise have been listed on the following table.

DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK
Common Stock
Voting Rights. For all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, each
holder of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share registered in his
or her name on our books. Our common stock does not have cumulative voting
rights. As a result, persons who hold more than 50% of the outstanding common
stock can elect all of the directors who are up for election in a particular
year.
Dividends. If our board of directors declares a dividend, holders of
common stock will receive payments from our funds that are legally available to
pay dividends. No dividend has been declared by us since inception of our
operations and there are no current plans to declare any dividends in the
foreseeable future. Our current policy is to retain all of our earnings to
finance future growth. In addition, pursuant to loan covenants contained in our
credit facility with our commercial lender, we may not pay dividends without the
commercial lender's prior approval. Our bylaws provide that our board of
directors may not declare a dividend when the payment of such dividend would
render us insolvent, or if we are insolvent.
Liquidation and Dissolution. If we are liquidated or dissolve, the holders
of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in all the assets, after
satisfaction of any outstanding debt to our senior lender.
Other Rights and Restrictions. Holders of our common stock do not have
preemptive rights, and they have no right to convert their common stock into any
other securities. Our common stock is not subject to redemption by us. Our
charter and by-laws do not restrict the ability of a holder of common stock to
transfer his or her shares of common stock.
- 14 -
Listing. Our common stock is listed on the Pink Sheets.
Transfer Agent and Registrar. The transfer agent and registrar for our
common stock is Olde Monmouth, 200 Memorial Parkway, Atlantic Highlands, New
Jersey 07716.
Delaware Law And Charter And By-Law Provisions
Business Combinations. We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of
the General Corporation Law of Delaware. Section 203 prohibits a publicly held
Delaware corporation from engaging in a "business combination" with an
"interested stockholder" for a period of three years after the date of the
transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the
business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A "business
combination" includes mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in a
financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to specified
exceptions, an "interested stockholder" is a person who, together with
affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years did own, 15% or more of
the corporation's outstanding voting stock.
Stockholder Action; Special Meeting of Stockholders. Our amended and
restated by-laws provide that any action required or permitted to be taken by
our stockholders may be taken at a duly called annual or special meeting of
stockholders, or by written consent of the holders of outstanding stock having
not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize
or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon
were present and voted. In addition, our amended and restated by-laws provide
that special meetings of stockholders may be called only by the board of
directors, the chief executive officer or the secretary at the request in
writing of stockholders owning a majority in amount of our entire capital stock
issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. These provisions could have the
effect of delaying until the next stockholders' meeting stockholder actions
which are favored by the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting
securities.

In March 2004, we issued to certain selling stockholders convertible
debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $1,315,000 at an interest rate
of 10%, plus warrants to purchase 6,575,000 shares of our common stock at $0.10
per share. Under the terms of the debentures, these selling stockholders had the
option to convert the principal balance of the debentures, in whole or in part,
into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to $0.10 per share.
These debentures matured on April 11, 2004, and we were unable to pay off the
debentures at maturity. In July 2004, we agreed with the selling stockholders
who were also holders of these debentures and warrants to extend the maturity of
this indebtedness to August 11, 2004. In return, we agreed to reduce the
conversion price of the debentures to $0.05 per share and to reduce the exercise
price of their warrants to $0.05 per share. We paid off the debt of $1,315,000
and interest of $142,668 on August 6, 2004 with the proceeds of our most recent
private placement transaction.
EXPERTS
Certain legal matters in connection with the shares of our common stock
offered for resale in this prospectus have been passed upon for us by Kramer
Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP, New York, New York.
Pollard-Kelley Auditing Services, Inc. has audited our consolidated
financial statements as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and for each of the years
in the two-year period ended December 31, 2003, as set forth in its report,
which appears herein.
DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our amended and restated charter contains provisions permitted under the
General Corporation Law of Delaware relating to the liability of directors. The
provisions eliminate a director's liability for monetary damages for a breach of
fiduciary duty, except in circumstances involving wrongful acts, such as the
breach of a director's duty of loyalty or acts or omissions which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law. The limitation of
liability described above does not alter the liability of our directors and
officers under federal securities laws. Furthermore, our amended and restated
by-laws contain provisions to indemnify our directors and officers to the
fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of
Delaware. These provisions do not limit or eliminate our right or the right of
any stockholder of ours to seek non-monetary relief, such as an injunction or
rescission in the event of a breach by a director or an officer of his duty of
care to us. We believe that these provisions will assist us in attracting and
retaining qualified individuals to serve as directors.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
On June 18, 2004, we entered into a placement agency agreement with
Casimir Capital, L.P. As compensation for services rendered in connection with
our recent private placement, we paid to Casimir a cash fee equal to 10% of the

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Corporate Structure
We were incorporated as a private company on July 7, 1998 in Texas under
the name Partners Alliance Group, Inc.
On January 1, 2001, West-Tex Internet, Inc. contributed its assets to us,
which established us as an Internet service provider. On November 30, 2001, we
acquired Overland Network, Inc., a company engaged in providing dial up and
broadband wireless Internet services in the Trans Pecos region of Texas.
On May 31, 2002, we purchased the assets and operations of Brooks Data
Consultants, Inc. This purchase expanded our Internet Service Provider area and
we also obtained from Brooks Data Consultants a five-year covenant not to
compete, within a 50-mile radius of our operations, including the areas
purchased.
On April 1, 2003, we changed our name to Wireless Frontier Internet, Inc.
On June 1, 2003, we entered into an agreement to purchase all the assets

match our direction. On June 9, 2004, we returned to the former owner of
Strategic Abstract the assets we acquired in this transaction and the former
owner returned the shares of our common stock we issued to him. We also issued
to the former owner warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of our common stock.
On or about July 1, 2003, we acquired all the outstanding shares of US Mex
Communications and West Texas Horizons for shares of our common stock and the
assumption of a promissory note. The acquired company sells phone cards and

from RayTech Internet, Inc. This purchase extended our service to Big Springs,
Texas on Interstate 20.
Business
We are a wireless broadband Internet service provider located in Fort
Stockton, Texas. In addition, we are a traditional Internet service provider. We
currently provide services to customers in over 100 cities throughout Southwest
Texas and Kansas. Our strategy is to deliver efficient, reliable and cost
effective solutions to bringing high-speed Internet access to rural markets
within the United States. We believe we have positioned ourselves to meet the
Internet access needs of organizations and consumers which require broadband
access to the Internet in their operating areas, but do not have access to cable
or DSL from the traditional service providers.
We offer broadband Internet service through a network of point-to-point
and point-to-multipoint wireless networks. We use terrestrial circuits to
connect the Internet backbone and then distributes the signal through a series
of towers and repeaters to customer premises equipment located at the
subscriber's residence or business. Also, by utilizing the expertise of our
network engineers, we deliver value-added services to our subscribers by
offering network integration services. These services are provided by selling,
installing and maintaining the hardware necessary for virtual private networks,
or "VPN's," Voice over IP, or "VoIP," and data integration services.
We focus our primary marketing efforts on providing wireless broadband
access services to customers located in rural areas of Texas and Kansas and then
throughout the United States. We also focus on cities of less than 150,000
inhabitants. We offer network reliability complemented by quality customer
support.
Strategy
Our business strategy revolves around the need to provide quality wireless
and dial-up Internet access to clients, in the process fully satisfying their
Internet data needs, at a fraction of the time and cost of traditional wire-line
providers. We intend to grow our customer base as rapidly as possible, while
maintaining a higher than average
- 25 -
level of service and support for the customers and their needs. We intend to
implement our growth strategy through the marketing of services and the
acquisition of both dial-up and wireless Internet service providers. In
addition, we intend to continue our networking and telecommunications equipment
sales.
Our business focuses on increasing Wi-fi penetration in a greater market
area. Our services are designed and intended to deliver efficient, reliable, and
cost-effective solutions, bringing high-speed Internet access to rural markets
within the United States. We believe that we are in a position to meet the
Internet access needs of Wi-fi consumers. Users in rural areas require broadband
access to the Internet, but often may not have access to cable or digital
subscriber line connections from traditional service providers. These customers
are typically found in cities with less than 150,000 inhabitants in North
America, and in most suburban and semi-rural areas where there are few Internet
access options other than traditional telephone dial-up connections.
Consumers in rural areas desire affordable high-speed Internet access.
Consumer demand in rural areas for faster, broadband transmission speeds has
largely remained unsatisfied because a growing portion of the market has found
itself "priced out" of the "broadband revolution". Especially critical in this
regard has been the ability to deliver broadband content over the "last mile"
(the connection between the Internet backbone and the end-user), which is the
central data bottleneck in telecommunications networks today.
We are focused on providing the solution to the "last mile" problem faced
by traditional wired telecommunications services, namely the ability to build
out a network that provides the level of services demanded by end users. In
medium to small markets, and in areas of the United States with limited or no
existing telecommunications infrastructure, the cost to install or upgrade wired
services to provide the level of access customers expect is prohibitive. We
believe that our fixed wireless Internet access services are faster and less
expensive to deploy than traditional wired services, with a lower cost-per-user
to install, deploy and manage.
Our wireless network services are designed to operate in the license-free
ISM radio spectrum, which facilitates a more rapid and low-cost market
introduction for service providers than for licensed or hardwire solutions. Our
products utilize direct sequence spectrum or DSS communications, which ensures
reliable, secure, low-interference communications.
The Market
The market for our fixed wireless access service is driven by the
worldwide demand for Internet access as well as the increasing demand for high
speed Internet access. Our target market in North America is comprised of cities
with a population of fewer than 150,000, suburban areas of larger cities and
industrial parks. In these markets, our services address the demands of
organizations and consumers who require broadband access to the Internet, but
often do not have access to cable or digital subscriber line connections from
traditional service providers. We believe that the growth of our business will
be driven by the following:
o growth in the number of Internet users world wide;
o growing demand for high speed Internet access;
o scarcity of access technologies that are capable of efficiently and
economically delivering more than 1 Mbps;
o lack of wireline infrastructures; and
o lack of suitable broadband access technologies in rural and suburban
areas in North America.
In meeting these market requirements, we believe our fixed wireless access
service offers the following features:
o instant blanket coverage without digging up streets or leasing
capacity from competitors;
- 26 -
o a pay-as-you-grow deployment model, which allows for lower-cost
market entry (compared to fixed wire or cable based systems) with
incremental costs matched to incremental revenues;
o bandwidth increments that address the requirements of small and
mid-size businesses;
o point-to-multipoint technology allowing for burstable, bandwidth on
demand services, which are specially suited towards a data-centric
environment;
o wireless technology which enables those who do not have access to
copper, coaxial or fiber optic wire to participate in the high-speed
Internet access market;
o significant cost advantages through the use of license-free radio
frequencies; and
o easy to set up, non-line-of-sight modems resulting in further
significant cost savings by avoiding expensive truck rolls to
install customer premise equipment.
Currently, our products operate in the unlicensed spectrum, specifically
900 MHz and 2.4 GHz. We believe that our 900 MHz products in particular could
enjoy wide acceptance because of their non-line-of-sight and easy to set up
features. Deployments that combine business and consumer subscribers can be
shown to offer a viable and profitable business case for service operators.
Regulation
To date, our technology is deployed in license-free frequency bands. As
such, our products have not been subject to any wireless or transmission
licensing in the United States, Canada and many other jurisdictions worldwide.
Our products are required, however, to be approved by the Federal Communications
Commission for use in the United States, by the Federal Ministry of Industry and
Department of Industry in Canada, for use in Canada, and other regulatory bodies
for use in other jurisdictions, to ensure they meet the rigorous requirements
for use of these bands.
Continued license-free operation will depend upon the continuation of
existing government policy and, while we are not aware of any policy changes
planned or expected, there can be no assurances that we will be able to continue
to operate without a license. License-free operation of our products in the 902
to 928 MHz and the 2.4 GHz bands is subordinate to certain licensed and
unlicensed uses of the bands, and our products must not cause harmful
interference to other equipment operating in the bands and must accept
interference from any of them. If we should be unable to eliminate any such
harmful interference, or should our products be unable to accept interference
caused by others, we or our customers could be required to cease operations in
the bands in the locations affected by the harmful interference. Additionally,
in the event the 902 to 928 MHz or the 2.4 GHz bands becomes unacceptably
crowded, and no additional frequencies are allocated, our business could be
adversely affected.
Employees
As of December 22, 2004, we had 38 total employees, all of whom were
full-time employees.

Plan of Operation
The Company is a wireless broadband Internet service provider located in
Fort Stockton, Texas. In addition, the Company is also a traditional Internet
service provider. The Company currently provides services to customers in over
100 cities throughout Southwest Texas and Kansas. The Company was designed to
deliver efficient, reliable and cost effective solutions to bringing high-speed
Internet access to rural markets within the United States. The Company believes
it has positioned itself to meet the Internet access needs of organizations and
consumers which require broadband access to the Internet in its operating area,
but do not have access to cable or DSL from the traditional service providers.
The Company offers broadband Internet service through a network of
point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless networks. The Company uses
terrestrial circuits to connect the Internet backbone and then distributes the
signal through a series of towers and repeaters to customer premise equipment
(CPE) located at the subscriber's residence or business. Also, by utilizing the
expertise of the Company's Network Engineers, the Company delivers value added
services to its subscribers by offering network integration services. This
service is provided by selling, installing and maintaining the hardware
necessary for virtual private networks (VPN's), Voice over IP (VoIP) and data
integration services.
The Company focuses its primary marketing efforts on providing wireless
broadband access services to customers located in rural areas of Texas and
Kansas and then throughout the United States. The Company also focuses on cities
of less than 150,000 inhabitants. As the Company positions itself as a high
quality service provider, it targets to offer network reliability complemented
by quality customer support.
The Company plans to continue to make acquisitions of complementary
companies, products and technologies. In order to implement these strategies and
to fund its operations and repay its indebtedness, the Company anticipates that
it will need to obtain additional capital in the future. Please see discussion
below under "Liquidity and Capital Resources."
Discontinued Operations
The Company discontinued all of the operations of the Fremont businesses
in late 1998 and 1999, due to lack of capital, bad debt and unprofitability. Any
assets were liquidated or written off. Debts were settled or negotiated. No
operating results of the prior Fremont businesses are included in this
discussion or in the operating statements of the Company due to such
discontinuance.

Results of Operations
Results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 compared to
the nine months ended September 30, 2003.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, equipment sales
were $930,221 and $105,344, respectively. Internet service revenue was
$2,293,270 and $2,691,477 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003,
respectively. The increase in equipment sales is primarily from the acquisitions
expanding our customer base. The decrease in internet service revenue reflects
some large community network service grants that were recognized in the second
quarter of 2003. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, revenue
from community service network grants was $183,212 and $1,161,252, respectively.
Without this revenue source in the 2003 periods, the comparison with 2004
reflects an increase in subscriber revenue and other internet income due
primarily from the acquisitions expanding our customer base.
The cost of equipment sales was $657,433 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2004, which consists of purchasing equipment and accessories. The
cost of Internet services was $982,312 for the nine months ended September 30,
2004, which consists of telephone lines, installation costs, rental costs, and
service costs.
The gross profit margin for equipment sales was 29% for the nine months
ended September 30, 2004 compared to (17)% for the nine months ended September
30, 2003. The loss in gross margin for the nine months in 2003 reflects a
pricing practice during that period that weighted higher margins on installation
services than the equipment itself. This is primarily a reflection of the sales
to the Community Networks during that period that had higher gross margins on
service and lower gross margins on equipment. The gross profit margin for
Internet sales was 57% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, compared to
62% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The higher margin in the nine
month gross profit in 2003 is the result of the large community network service
grants that were recognized in the second quarter of 2003. There was very little
additional cost incurred by the Company to perform the services under these
grants and the corresponding gross margins reflect that. These grants are
considered to be isolated opportunities for the Company, and the Company has not
received any additional grants in 2004.
The Company incurred operating expenses of $3,146,476 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2004, compared to $2,031,650 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2003, a total increase of 55%. The major components of the
expenses were as follows:
Nine Months Ended Nine Months Ended
General and Administrative Expenses: September 30, 2004 September 30 ,2003 Percentage Change
------------------ ------------------ -----------------
Advertising and promotion $ 42,352 $ 50,325 (16)%
Legal and professional 614,175 144,975 324%
Auto and travel 176,243 174,060 1%
Commissions and contract labor 108,861 36,255 200%
Office expenses and supplies 87,988 145,170 (39)%
Insurance 119,153 62,968 89%
Rent 65,957 48,547 36%
Salaries and wages 1,495,703 1,136,194 32%
Taxes 204,476 137,644 49%
Utilities 101,737 87,619 16%
Depreciation and amortization: 687,744 265,072 189%
- 29 -
The increase in the Company's expenses for the nine months ended September
30, 2004, compared to the same period in 2003 was primarily due to (i) an
increase in legal and professional fees primarily due to the Company's merger
with Fremont and the associated SEC filings, the ongoing costs of operating as a
public company, and the litigation with the former owner of Momentum; (ii) an
increase in salaries and wages due to the hiring of additional staff from the
Company's acquisition of additional companies, and due to the increase in staff
required to manage the public company; and (iii) the increase of the
depreciation and amortization costs with the acquisition of new companies. In
addition, the Company's interest expenses for the nine months ended September
30, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003 increased due to a non-cash
interest expense that was incurred from the debenture offering in March through
August of 2004. The Company believes that while the trend of losses may
continue, 2004 expenses reflect investment in future operational capabilities as
a company and management believes that revenues will increase without
substantial expense increases. The Company has already taken steps to reduce the
number of employees and to decrease operating expenses. The lawsuit involving
Momentum has prevented the Company from making such changes to this operation
even though the results from that operation are included in the Company's
financial statements.
Results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared to year
ended December 31, 2002.
For the years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, equipment
sales were $1,930,091 and $1,442,901, respectively. Internet service revenue was
$1,769,010 and $653,817 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003 and
December 31, 2002, respectively. Total sales for the Company grew from
$2,096,718 in 2002 to $3,699,101 in 2003. The overall increase in sales is
primarily from the acquisitions that expanded our customer base. The total gross
profit margin for 2002 was 45% compared to 60% for 2003. This increase in profit
margin reflects some large community network service grants that were recognized
primarily in the second quarter of 2003. This source of revenue was limited and
was approximately $799,000 in 2003 and $122,000 in 2002. Without this revenue
source in both periods, the gross profit margin for 2003 would have been 38.5%,
and for 2002 would have been 39.5%. These normalized margins are consistent
between the two periods.
The Company incurred total operations expenses of $3,425,443 in 2003
compared to $979,793 in 2002, a total increase of 349%. The major components of
the expenses were as follows:
2003 Expenses 2002 Expenses Percentage
------------- ------------- ----------
Advertising and promotion $ 88,269 19,199 459%
Legal and professional 223,468 7,500 2,980
Auto and travel 209,499 58,057 361
Commissions and contract labor 96,591 14,702 657
Office expenses and supplies 228,702 52,967 432
Salary and wages 1,493,952 434,618 344
Taxes 259,325 68,509 379
Utilities 119,957 39,885 301
Amortization and depreciation 520,318 155,754 334
The substantial increases in costs of operations of 349% compares to
substantial increases in gross profit of 234% over prior year. The increase in
the Company's expenses in 2003 compared to the same period in 2002 was primarily
due to (i) an increase in legal and professional fees due to the Company's
merger with Fremont; (ii) an increase in auto and travel expenses due to the
Company seeking to acquire other companies and servicing and supporting new
territories we acquired; and (iii) an increase in salaries and wages due to the
hiring of additional staff to support the Company's acquisition of additional
companies and to promote the growth of those companies. Taxes, amortization and
depreciation expenses have increased due to the purchase of fixed assets and
intangible costs from acquisitions.
- 30 -
The Company sustained a net loss of $711,264 in 2003 after other income of
$488,704) as compared to a net loss of $21,739 in 2002 (after other income of
$8,070). Other income of $488,704 in 2003 was forgiveness of debt pursuant to
the merger agreement with Fremont Corporation. The net loss per share was $.03
in 2003 and the loss was nominal per share in 2002.
Results of operation for the year ended December 31, 2002 compared to year ended
December 31, 2001
For the years ended December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, equipment
sales were $1,442,901 and $1,107,164, respectively. Internet service revenue was
$653,817 and $230,239 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002 and December
31, 2001, respectively. Total sales for the Company grew from $1,337,403 in 2001
to $2,096,718 in 2002. The overall increase in sales is primarily from the
acquisitions that expanded our customer base. The total gross profit margin for
2001 was 33% compared to 45% for 2002. This overall increase in profit margin is
due to higher margins of 40% in 2002 equipment sales than in 2001 of 24%. The
margins from equipment sales represent 61% of the total gross margins in both
periods. The gross profit margin from Internet services declined to 57% in 2002
from 74% in 2001 due to an increased commitment to telephone circuits as the
Company grew its Internet infrastructure.
The Company incurred total operations expenses of $979,793 in 2002
compared to $610,100 in 2001, a total increase of 61%. The major components of
the expenses were as follows:
Percentage
General and Administrative Expenses: 2002 Expenses 2001 Expenses Change
------------- ------------- ----------
Advertising and promotion $ 19,199 $ 7,406 159%
Auto and travel 58,057 41,850 39
Commissions and contract labor 14,702 69,692 (374)
Office expenses and supplies 52,967 25,213 110
Insurance 23,732 16,570 43
Interest 55,188 22,938 141
Salary and wages 434,618 187,001 132
Utilities 39,885 20,893 91
Amortization and depreciation 155,754 114,656 36
The increase in the Company's expenses for the year ended December 31,
2002 compared to the same period in 2001 was primarily due to (i) an increase in
travel expenses related to attracting more customers and acquisition candidates;
(ii) an increase in office expenses related to the growth in the number of
personnel over the past 12 months; (iii) an increase in interest expense from
loans used to buy equipment; (iv) salaries and wages due to the hiring of
additional staff and from the Company's acquisition of additional companies; and
(v) the increase of the depreciation and amortization costs with the Company's
acquisitions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2004, we had a working capital deficit of $673,317, due
primarily to the current maturities of debt of $974,587. We have historically
sustained our operations and funded our capital requirements with the funds
received from loans received from various financial institutions, as well as the
private placement of equity securities and debentures, as more fully described
below. The Company is also applying for low interest loans and grants from
various Federal agencies who are promoting the proliferation of broadband
services throughout rural America. We believe that the Company qualifies for
these loans and grants, but there is no guarantee that we will receive any funds
from this effort. The Company will continue to seek other methods of funding its
operations, primarily from the sale of its common stock or debt securities.
In order to reduce the number of shares outstanding, certain officers and
founders of the Company contributed an aggregate of 16,628,790 shares to the
Company that were subsequently cancelled on July 7, 2004.
- 31 -
These officers were also awarded stock options to purchase up to 16,628,790
shares of the Company's common stock with escalating strike prices beginning at
$0.25 per share.
As of September 30, 2004, we had $200,708 in cash and $130,782 in accounts
receivable that could be used in connection with funding our operations. The
Company anticipates funding its operations from additional sales of its common
stock or issuance of additional debt. If adequate funds are not available, we
may be unable to repay the remaining short-term indebtedness or to grow and
expand our business, in which case there would be substantial doubt about our
ability to continue as a going concern.
We believe that the impact of inflation on our operations since our
inception has not been material.
In March 2004, the Company issued convertible debentures to a number of
noteholders, in the aggregate principal amount of $1,315,000, at an interest
rate of 10%, plus late penalties, and warrants to purchase an aggregate of
6,575,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per
share. The award of these warrants and the subsequent change of the strike price
to $0.05 generated a non-cash interest expense of $657,500 that is in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. Under the terms of the
debentures, the noteholders had the option to convert the principal balance of
the debentures, in whole or in part, into shares of the Company's common stock
at a conversion price equal to $0.10 per share. These debentures matured on
April 11, 2004, and the Company was unable to pay off the debentures at
maturity. In July 2004, the Company agreed with the noteholders to extend the
maturity date to August 11, 2004 and to reduce the conversion price of the
debentures to $0.05 per share. The change in price of this beneficial conversion
feature generated a non-cash interest expense of $328,750 that is reported in
the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company paid the debt
plus interest of $172,000 with the proceeds of a Private Placement Offering on
August 6, 2004. Pursuant to a letter agreement between the Company and the
noteholders, the warrants are now exercisable for $0.05 per share.
We will need to obtain additional capital in the future. We were
successful in raising $3,264,592 in a private placement offering that closed in
July through September 2004. The proceeds were used for (i) payment of legal and
placement fees of $865,138; (ii) repayment of debentures with interest and
penalties of $1,487,000; (iii) current payables and bank debt of approximately
$800,000; and (iv) future working capital of approximately $534,000. We intend
to obtain funding through the use of various types of short-term funding, loans
or working capital financing arrangements from banks or financial institutions.
It may also be necessary for us to raise additional capital in public or private
equity markets. Our ability to raise additional capital in public or private
markets will depend primarily upon prevailing market conditions and the demand
for our products and services. No assurance can be given that we will be able to
raise additional capital, when needed or at all, or that such capital, if
available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company. Any additional sale of
our common stock will also dilute the percentage of ownership of our existing
shareholders. Please see "Note 4." to the financial statements in this filing
for a discussion of the Company's debt.
As we generally obtain most of our funding from operations, a decrease in
revenue could negatively impact our short and long term liquidity. We believe
that the impact of inflation on our operations since our inception has not been
material.
Cash used in operations for the year ended December 31, 2003 was
$1,244,989 compared to $19,497 generated from operations for the year ended
December 31, 2002. The primary reason for the reduced level of cash generation
in 2003 was due to losses and implementation of new services during 2003.
Working capital as at December 31, 2003 decreased to a deficit of $851,004
from $1,294 as at December 31, 2002. The decrease in working capital was due
primarily to the ramp-up of services and the acceleration of business activity
in 2003.
In 2003, the Company sold 8,997,894 shares of Common stock for $1,276,532.
The original number of shares sold was 899,789. The sales were renegotiated in
January 2004 to 8,997,894 shares.

Wireless Frontier Internet, Inc. and Subsidiary
Fort Stockton, Texas
We have audited the Consolidated Balance Sheet of Wireless Frontier Internet,
Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 and the related
Consolidated Statements of Income, Changes in Stockholders' Equity, and Cash
Flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on those financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. Audits include examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Audits also include assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits, the financial statements referenced above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wireless
Frontier Internet, Inc and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles accepted in the United
States of America.
As discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Momentum
acquisition is currently in litigation. The ultimate outcome of the litigation
cannot presently be determined. Accordingly, no liabilities or losses that may
result upon adjudication have been recognized in the accompanying financial
statements.

Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under a method, which requires a company
to, recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax
consequences of events that have been recognized in a company's financial
statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial
statements carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities using
enacted tax rates. The Company presently prepares its tax return on the cash
basis and its financial statements on the accrual basis. No deferred tax assets
or liabilities have been recognized at this time, since the Company has shown
losses for both tax and financial reporting. The Company's net operating
loss-carry forward at December 31, 2003 is approximately $890,000.
Depreciation and Amortization
The Company provides for depreciation of fixed assets utilizing the
straight-line method to apportion costs over the following estimated lives:

the value of Internet subscribers purchased, utilizing the straight-line method,
to apportion costs over a 15 year estimated life.

Presently the Company has two covenants not to compete. One has a three-year

accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results

The Company has advanced funds to Shareholders and Officers of the Company
totaling $15,779 at December 31, 2002. The advances are non-interest bearing and

NOTE 10 - LITIGATION
On November 10, 2003 Momentum filed a complaint against the Company in district
state court for the State of Texas in relation to the asset purchase agreement
the Company entered into with Momentum on June 1, 2003. The complaint alleges
the Company breached its contract as a result of the failure to deliver shares
of common stock of the Company as required pursuant to the asset purchase
agreement. The court issued an injunction requiring that any revenue generated
from the subject assets be placed in escrow and utilized to pay any outstanding
invoices in connection with the use of the assets. In addition, the court also
ordered mediation, which did not produce a resolution.
On January 6, 2004 Momentum filed for voluntary bankruptcy in Federal bankruptcy
court. This action stopped the proceeding in state court until a hearing on the
Company's holdings can be heard. The Company believes that Momentum's lawsuit is
without merit and intends to vigorously defend the matter.

Note 5. Employee Stock Option Plan and Other Employee Related Actions
In their October 1, 2003 meeting, the Board of Directors agreed to allocate
20,000,000 shares to the Employee Stock Option Plan to be established later.
There have been no options issued in connection with this plan.
On July 7, 2004, certain officers of the Company contributed to the capital of
the Company the number of issued and outstanding shares of the common stock, par
value $0.001 per share, of the Company set forth opposite his name below. The
contribution of these shares was accounted for through a reduction in the Common
Stock account with a corresponding increase in Additional Paid-in Capital at par
value.

F - 32
Based on the provisions of APB 25, there was no intrinsic value of the options
granted on July 7, 2004, and therefore, no compensation expense was recorded.
The fair value of the options was approximately $2,350,000 on July 7, 2004. The
fair value of the stock contributed to the Company which gave rise to the
issuance of the options was approximately $2,500,000 on July 7, 2004 based on
the quoted market price. As a result, there was no compensation expense
associated with the granting of the options. Therefore, no disclosure is
required of the pro forma information as provided for by SFAS 148. The following
assumptions were used for the grant of the options to the employees to compute
the fair value of the options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model:
dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 183.0%; risk free interest rate of
3.66%; and expected life of 5 years.
Note 6. Stockholders' Equity
In January 2004, the Company revalued the number of shares of common stock
issued to stockholders in connection with certain acquisitions and investments
in the Company that occurred during 2003. The original number of shares issued
for these transactions in 2003 was 1,128,872. The number of shares issued as a
result of this revaluation was 10,159,848, resulting in the total number of
shares issued for these transactions of 11,288,720. The issuance of these shares
was accounted for through an increase in the Common Stock account with a
corresponding decrease in Additional Paid-in Capital at par value.
During the first quarter and second quarter of 2004, The Company issued stock
for the compensation of certain legal and consulting services. The shares issued
in the first quarter were 181,818, and the shares issued in the second quarter
were 170,000. The services were valued at $36,364 in the first quarter, and
$34,000 in the second quarter. The issuance of these shares was accounted for
each quarter through an increase in the Common Stock account at par value and an
increase in Additional Paid-in Capital for the remainder of the value of the
services.
On July 7, 2004, certain officers of the Company contributed 16,628,790 shares
of common stock to the capital of the Company. The contribution of these shares
was accounted for through a reduction in the Common Stock account with a
corresponding increase in Additional Paid-in Capital at par value.
In July through September 2004, the Company completed a private placement
transaction in which 21,763,890 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase
up to 10,881,913 shares of common stock were issued. Common stock can be
purchased with these warrants for $0.15 per share. The Company received
approximately $3,264,592 from this placement; the proceeds of which were used to
repay the debentures plus interest mentioned above, and $865,133 was used to pay
placement agent and legal fees.
Note 7. Litigation
On November 10, 2003, Momentum filed a complaint against the Company in state
district court for the State of Texas in relation to the asset purchase
agreement the Company entered into with Momentum on June 1, 2003. The complaint
alleges the Company breached its contract as a result of the failure to deliver
shares of common stock of the Company as required pursuant to the asset purchase
agreement. The court issued an injunction requiring that any revenue generated
from the subject assets be placed in escrow and utilized to pay any outstanding
invoices in connection with the use of the assets. The assets acquired,
liabilities assumed, revenue generated, and associated expenses are included in
these financial statements since the acquisition date. The revenues and expenses
generated by Momentum and included in the accompanying statement of operations
during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 were $1,086,909 and $1,074,493,
respectively. The assets and liabilities related to Momentum that are included
on the balance sheet at September 30, 2004 are in the following table:
Assets:
Cash $ 66,128
Accounts receivable 133,299
Inventory 30,584
Equipment and furniture 175,604
Other assets 44,600
Customer List 291,666
Goodwill 1,992,202
----------
Total Assets $2,734,083
==========
Liabilities:
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities $ 225,328
Notes payable 234,724
----------
Total Liabilities $ 460,052
==========
F - 33
On January 6, 2004, Momentum filed for voluntary bankruptcy in Federal
Bankruptcy Court. This action stopped the proceeding in state court until a
hearing on the Company's holdings can be heard. On October 4, 2004, the parties
appeared before a Bankruptcy Court appointed mediator, but did not resolve the
dispute. There is a new hearing set by the court on December 8, but it is
unclear at this point when this matter will be resolved. The Company believes
that Momentum's lawsuit is without merit and intends to vigorously defend the
matter.
Note 8. Going Concern
The Company has a history of losses, negative cash flows and has had some
difficulty meeting the terms of some of its debt instruments. As of September
30, 2004, the Company had a working capital deficit of $673,317. The Company's
continuation as a going concern depends upon its ability to attain profitable
operations and to obtain additional sources of capital and financing. The
accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The steps that the
Company is taking to alleviate the deficiency of capital includes a focus on
increasing revenues, the reduction of staff, selling of unnecessary equipment
such as vehicles, the implementation of new selling practices that are less
expensive than traditional media marketing, and the raising of additional debt
or equity capital.
Note 9. Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements in Form 10-QSB
The accompanying financial statements reflect a restatement of the financial
statements previously issued on November 22, 2004 by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10QSB for the three months and nine
months ended September 30, 2004. Net loss and basic and diluted net loss per
share ("LPS") as previously reported in the appropriate interim periods as
reflected below have been restated to account for the non-cash transactions
related to (1) common stock issued for legal services (see note 6), (2) the sale
of Strategic Abstract & Title Corporation for common stock of the Company (see
note 3) and (3) interest expense resulting from the discount of the convertible
debentures issued with detachable warrants and their subsequent re-pricing and
the beneficial conversion feature resulting from the reduction in the conversion
price related to those debentures (see note 4). The effect of the restatement on
net loss and basic and diluted net loss per share in previously issued financial
statements for the three months ended March 31, 2004, for the three months and
six months ended June 30, 2004 and for the three months and nine months ended
September 30, 2004 are as follows:
As Previously Reported As Restated

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
We amended and restated by-laws provide that we shall indemnify our
directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the
General Corporation Law of Delaware.
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware provides that a
corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of
the corporation and certain other persons serving at the request of the
corporation in related capacities against amounts paid and expenses incurred in
connection with an action or proceeding to which he is or is threatened to be
made a party by reason of such position, if such person shall have acted in good
faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal proceeding, if such person
had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; provided that, in
the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no
indemnification shall be made with respect to any matter as to which such person
shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the
extent that the adjudicating court determines that such indemnification is
proper under the circumstances.
Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law allows a corporation
to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation to the
corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary
duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty,
failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly
violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock
repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper
personal benefit.
Our restated certificate of incorporation also provides that no director
shall be liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of his
fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the
director's duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions
not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation
of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or (iv)
for any transaction in which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Under the terms of the debentures, these investors had the option to convert the
principal balance of the debentures, in whole or in part, into shares of our
common stock at a conversion price equal to $0.10 per share. These debentures
matured on April 11, 2004, and we were unable to pay off the debentures at
maturity. In July 2004, we agreed with the selling stockholders who were also
holders of these debentures and warrants to extend the maturity of this
indebtedness to August 11, 2004. In return, we agreed to reduce the conversion
price of the debentures to $0.05 per share and to reduce the exercise price of
their warrants to $0.05 per share. We paid off the debt of $1,315,000 and
interest of $142,668 on August 6, 2004 with the proceeds of our most recent
private placement transaction.
II - 3
The issuance of shares of our debentures and warrants did not involve any
public offering and therefore was exempt from registration pursuant to Section
4(2) of the Securities Act.
Issuance in Recent Private Placements
On July 23, August 4, and September 14, 2004, the Company closed its

Casimir Capital L.P., as placement agent. A total of 21,763,890 units were sold
in the offering, at a price of $0.15 per unit, resulting in $3,264,592 of gross
proceeds to the Company. The Company has issued to investors in the offering
21,763,890 shares (the "Shares") and 10,881,913 5-year warrants, which warrants
are exercisable to purchase shares at $0.15 per share (the "Investor Warrants").
An additional 3,264,579 5-year warrants, exercisable at a price of $0.15 per
share (the "Placement Agent Warrants"), were issued to certain designees of the
placement agent. Expenses of the offering, including the placement agent's fees
and non-accountable expense allowance (totaling 10% of gross proceeds) and
legal, accounting and other expenses are expected to be approximately $660,000.
The Company has obligated itself to file a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") by October 14, 2004 for purposes of
registering the Shares and the 14,146,492 shares of its common stock underlying
the Investor Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants. In the event that the

filing of the registration statement or 120 days after September 14, 2004, the
Company will be obliged to pay investors in the offering approximately $2,176
per day in liquidated damages until the filing or effectiveness has occurred.

registration pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the
Securities Act. The private placement was conducted without engaging in any
advertising or general solicitation of any kind and without payment of
underwriting discounts or commissions to any person. All of the investors were
"accredited investors" within the meaning of the Securities Act.

Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");
II - 5
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of this 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 this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any increase or decrease in the 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; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement
or any material change to such information in this Registration
Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") that
are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each 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 the 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 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions described herein, or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised 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 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.
