Risk Factors
1. We have not conducted any significant
operations to date and have not generated any
significant revenues. You may lose your entire
investment.
Since our incorporation, our activities have been
principally devoted to positioning ourselves to
achieve our business objectives. We have had no
material operating revenue to date and expect to
incur losses and administrative expenses until we
begin the sales of our products or we receive
revenues from any of our proposed operations. To
date, we have an accumulated deficit of
$1,765,213. If we cannot generate revenues, you
may lose your entire investment.
2. You will experience immediate dilution of at
least 88% of your investment if we raise the
entire offering amount and of at least 98% of your
investment if we raise the minimum offering
amount.
Immediately after the offering, if we raise the
entire amount, the book value per common share
will be $.61 or 88% less than the offering price.
If we only raise $500,000, the book value per
common share will be $08 or 98% less than the
offering price.
8
3. You cannot withdraw your funds after we
obtain the minimum amount of the offering.
If we only raise the minimum offering amount and
do not terminate the offering, you will not be
able to obtain a refund of your funds.
4. Our auditors have expressed a going concern
issue that notes our need for capital and/or
revenues to survive as a business. You may lose
your entire investment.
Our auditors have expressed reservations
concerning our ability to continue as a going
concern. We have incurred losses for the last
several years and require a significant change in
our business operations to reverse this trend.
You may lose your entire investment.
5. We may be unable to raise additional capital
to complete our product development and
commercialization plans. We may never become
profitable and you may lose your entire
investment.
Our product distribution schedule could be delayed
if we are unable to fund our marketing
capabilities. We do not know whether we will be
able to secure additional funding, or funding on
terms acceptable to us, to pursue all of our
marketing plans through the mass-market stage.
6. A mass market for smaller cogeneration
systems may never develop or may take longer to
develop than we anticipate
A mass market may never develop for our systems,
or may develop more slowly than we anticipate.
If a mass market fails to develop or develops more
slowly than we anticipate, we may be unable to
recover the losses we will have incurred to
develop our product and may be unable to achieve
profitability.
The development of a mass market for our systems
may be impacted by many factors, some of which
are out of our control, including:
- the cost competitiveness of
cogeneration systems;
- the future costs of natural gas,
propane and other fuels used by our
systems;
9
- consumer reluctance to try a new
product;
- consumer perceptions of our systems'
safety;
- regulatory requirements; and
- the emergence of newer, more competitive
technologies and products.
7. We have only manufactured our systems on a
pilot basis and we do not have manufacturing
experience for cogeneration systems on a
production basis that would provide us with
substantive production data instead of estimates.
To date, we have focused primarily on research and
development and have little relevant experience to
the manufacture of cogeneration systems for the
small business market on a commercial basis. All
of our manufacturing and installation to date has
been on a pilot basis.
Even if we are successful in developing effective
manufacturing capability and processes on an
outsourced basis, we do not know whether we will
do so in time to meet our product
commercialization schedule or to satisfy the
requirements of our distributors or customers.
8. We are also relying on contractors to
outsource the production of our systems. We may
obtain profitable operations if unfavorable
changes in pricing, production shortfalls, etc.
occur. You may lose your entire investment.
Our dependency upon outside manufacturers places
us at risk for unfavorable changes in pricing,
production shortfalls, delayed deliveries, sub-
standard production and other potential problems
associated with not controlling an important part
of the business process.
We have not negotiated long-term contracts with
any manufacturer and are relying instead on the
hoped for easy availability of standard
manufactured components that are widely available
and are therefore exposed if such reliance proves
faulty.
10
9. Alternatives to our technology could render
our systems obsolete. We may never obtain
profitable operations and you may lose your entire
investment.
Our system is only one of a number of alternative
energy products being developed today as
supplements to the electric grid that have
potential commercial industrial applications.
Improvements are also being made to the existing
electric transmission system. Technological
advances in alternative energy products,
improvements in the electric grid or other fuel
cell technologies may render our systems obsolete.
10. We may not be able to protect our
proprietary technology, systems designs and
manufacturing processes. We may never become
profitable and you may lose your entire
investment.
Much of our products and processes are in the
public domain. The manner in which we package,
brand and market our products is our most
distinguishing feature. We do not expect,
therefore, to seek patent protection.
Further, our competitors may independently develop
or patent technologies or processes that are
superior to ours. If we are found to be infringing
on third party patents, we do not know whether we
will be able to obtain licenses to use such
patents on acceptable terms, if at all. Failure to
obtain needed licenses could delay or prevent the
sale of our systems.
We rely, in part, on contractual provisions to
protect our trade secrets and proprietary
knowledge. These agreements may be breached, and
we may not have adequate remedies for any breach.
Our trade secrets may also be known without breach
of such agreements or may be independently
developed by competitors. Our inability to
maintain the proprietary nature of our products
could harm our business, prospects, results of
operations or financial condition.
11. We have no public market for our common
shares. You may not be able to liquidate your
common shares and you may lose your entire
investment.
11
At the present time, there is no public market for
our common stock, nor can there be any guarantee
that such a market will develop, or if developed,
will be sustained. Investors should consider the
purchase of shares to be a long-term investment.
These securities are not yet registered in any
states. Subsequent sale and transfer to residents
of various states may be required to be made only
pursuant to registration or an exemption from
registration in the transferee's state.
12. Demand for our systems may be lessened by
changes in government regulations and electric
utility industry restructuring that we are unable
to predict. We may never become profitable and
you may lose your entire investment.
The market for electricity generation products is
heavily influenced by federal and state
governmental regulations and policies concerning
the electric utility industry. The loosening of
current regulatory standards could deter further
investment in the research and development of
alternative energy sources and could result in a
significant reduction in the potential market
demand for our products. We cannot predict how
the deregulation and restructuring of the industry
will affect the market for small business
cogeneration systems.
We do believe that our product and its
installation will be subject to oversight and
regulation at the local level in accordance with
state and local ordinances relating to building
codes, safety, pipeline connections and related
matters. This regulation may depend, in part, upon
whether a system is placed outside or inside a
building.
13. The value of your investment could be diluted
due to future sales of our stock.
Substantial sales of our common stock in the
public market following this offering, or the
perception by the market that these sales could
occur, could lower our stock price or make it
difficult for us to raise additional equity
capital in the future.
12
After this offering, we will have 7,414,149 shares
of common stock outstanding. Of these shares, the
1,000,000 shares sold in this offering will be
freely tradable. The remaining 6,414,149 shares
are subject to a one-year lock-up agreement.
The holder of the common shares is an officer and
director of Power Save. At Power Save's
discretion, 6,414,149 shares will generally be
available for sale pursuant to Rule 144 one-year
after the offering is fully subscribed or
terminated. We cannot predict if future sales of
our common stock, or the availability of our
common stock for sale, will harm the market price
for our common stock or our ability to raise
capital by offering equity securities.
14. Your vote will not affect the outcome of any
shareholder vote since our principal stockholder
will retain approximately 87% of our outstanding
stock.
Upon the completion of this offering, our
principal stockholder, Scott Balmer, will retain
approximately 87% of our outstanding stock. For
instance, Mr. Balmer would be able to control the
outcome of all stockholder votes, including votes
concerning director elections, charter and by-law
amendments and possible mergers, corporate control
contests and other significant corporate
transactions.

Power Save
The predecesser company of Power Save was
incorporated on May 8, 1987 in Nevada under the
name Florida Pacific Corporation. In December
1998, Power Save Products was merged into Florida
Pacific and the name was changed to Power Save
International, Inc. After a change in control in
1999, the name was changed to Interactive Music,
Inc. The sole shareholder repurchased the
assets, liabilities and transferred them into a
new corporation named Power Save, Ltd. formed in
Nevada on July 23, 1999 and the name was later
changed to Power Save International, Inc.
We design, sell/lease and finance fossil-fueled
engine-driven air conditioning, heating, thermal
heat recovery and electric co-generating plants.
We target the more than 2 million U.S. small
businesses that usually are unable to negotiate
attractive utility rates.
A co-generator produces both heat and electricity
from one fuel source. We provide equipment that
can provide typical savings of 20% to 50% on
annual utility bills for heating, ventilating, air
conditioning known as HVAC on a convenient rental
or lease/purchase basis.
14
With conventional utility connections in reserve,
our clients have redundant and secure power
supplies at less cost than organizations that are
solely dependent upon normal utility hookups.
Our natural gas-fired individual unit sales range
from $75,000 to $125,000, with retrofits ranging
between $125,000 and $500,000,on an installed and
connected basis.
Most competition for co-generation has focused on
large-scale industrial users, permitting Power
Save to concentrate on the market for small
businesses. The energy efficiency of
cogeneration systems is approximately twice that
of conventional generation, largely stemming from
our ability to economically use the heat produced,
as referenced in DOE, "Tomorrow's Energy Today",
with important environmental benefits.
Through our founder, Scott Balmer, we have more
than thirty years of development and installation
experience and now intend to develop a national
market for our proven technology. Our original
demonstration test site model, Power Save
International-120, system was installed in 1995 in
Mamaroneck, NY and continues to meet or exceed the
customer's expectations. Our latest Power Save
International-70/50 Combo system was completed in
a commercial office building in Rochester, New
York.
Our basic system module consists of
- a natural gas fueled engine,
- air conditioning compressor,
- electric generator,
- heat recovery unit, and
- micro-processor
Our systems are built in a proprietary manner,
sold outright and/or operated on a turnkey basis
as the Power Save International Combo package of
cogeneration technology. A turnkey basis is
where we handle the whole project beginning with
the design and continuing on with
- obtaining permits
- installation
- equipment and
after startup and proof of performance, it is
accepted by the client.
15
Our expansion will be created through a
combination of advertising in the national trade
magazines for outright sales, and direct sales
representatives in selected areas for the
sale/lease of units. We also intend to acquire
suitable HVAC companies that will permit the more
rapid conversion of existing customer bases to our
units.
We have built our systems to date from components
that we have purchased from Ford Motor Company,
Hall Screw and other suppliers. We believe that
ample components are available from normal
commercial sources and we have relied upon
purchase orders without formal contracts or
agreements in place.
Our risk model
We have taken steps to lower the risks that
we take and simultaneously enhance our
expectations of profitability during a period of
rapid growth. We have structured the following
business profile:
- Outright sales are made for cash with a
50% deposit due upon the order, 40% prior to
shipment and the remaining 10% on startup.
- We intend to contract out most
manufacturing and routine maintenance needs to
companies or individuals in the field; the
requirement for a parts inventory will be
outsourced on an as needed basis. There are
several vendors that supply these parts. As these
vendors are easily replacable, we have not entered
into any specific contracts.
We intend to arrange for maintenance with local
HVAC companies and to provide servicing
information to them. We have not presently
developed agreements for this maintenance.
- Unless sold outright, the systems remain
the property of Power Save International and are
easily recoverable, if necessary.
- Funds from this offering and borrowings
are targeted principally for production and
installations with immediate income.
Marketing
We have examined various factors associated with
our market including
16
- small business electricity usage,
- ability to pay for our systems,
- power availability and quality,
- fuel sources,
- electricity prices,
- penetration of competing distributed
generation technologies,
- new capacity requirements and
- the cost of new capacity additions.
Based on this evaluation, we intend to target the
following market segments for our systems:
- Business users with annual electricity
costs between ($100,000 to $1,000,000);
- Firms in remote areas with little
available service competition.
- Facilities in high electricity cost
areas.
- Business users where utilities are unable
to efficiently satisfy power needs.
- Strategic partnership possibilities where
natural gas utilities can enhance their sales with
our installations.
We will employ numerous techniques to identify
potential customers such as:
- Advertisements in the trade
publications.
- Maintenance of a Web site that
illustrates our benefits.
- Identify, acquire and support several
profitable and attractive HVAC companies as
subsidiaries.
- Secure motivated sales engineers at each
HVAC subsidiary site and provide evaluation,
design and marketing support. We are specifically
looking for superior market and technologically
specific expertise.
- We will centrally manage the delivery
and installation to allow field personnel to
concentrate on marketing activities.
A large percentage of the funds raised will be for
- inventory of components,
- finished goods and
- systems site lease financing.
17
We have determined that there are 20 states where
the difference between the costs of natural gas as
opposed to the costs of electricity creates a
favorable economic situation for the placement of
our systems. The states are as follows:
- New York,
- Vermont,
- New Jersey,
- New Hampshire,
- Massachusetts,
- Connecticut,
- Nevada,
- Missouri,
- Rhode Island,
- Pennsylvania,
- Kansas,
- California,
- Ohio,
- Arizona,
- Missouri,
- New Mexico,
- Mississippi,
- Illinois,
- Michigan, and
- Louisiana.
Upon completion of the offering, we will commence
with a marketing program, which encompasses,
advertisements in the trade magazines backed up by
recruiting qualified systems sales engineers for
each of these marketing areas.
Additionally, in order to have the product
available for placement at sites and eliminate
long lead times, we will order and stock
sufficient components to have 10 basic system
modules on hand as finished goods.
Guaranteed savings plan. The bulk of the
CoGenAirHeat systems as installed will be owned by
us and leased to the sites for a ten-year period
of time on a guaranteed savings basis. Based on
an in-house detailed feasibility study and
economic analysis of the costs of generating
electricity and heat for our system compared to
the client's present and expected costs for
providing equivalent power we will perform at each
site, we will determine, on a case by case basis,
an estimated share of the savings incurred to be
paid to us in lieu of customer payments. In a
typical application where the economic analysis
has shown savings of $200,000 yearly, Power Save
would receive approximately $1,800-$2,500 per
month after in excess of $1,600 monthly net
savings to the site and all maintenance and
18
amortization expense. We will receive a reduced
amount or up to a 100% reduction in this share if
the savings do not materialize.
Sales Strategy
We will implement our marketing plan with an
emphasis on differentiating us from competing
providers of equivalent equipment. Our strategy
is essentially to permanently upgrade and alter
the way HVAC equipment is used by the small end
user market. We generate direct sales of our
units partially through industry advertising,
largely in trade publications. We will also depend
upon contractor sales personnel who have already
established relationships with prime sales
prospects. We will target
- owners,
- operators and
- managers of the properties that are prime
candidates for our systems and seek to leverage
our advertising.
We will also supply a resident cogeneration sales
engineer and support him or her with operating
systems, a defined marketing program and
facilities.
Our line of products is designed for the
cogeneration market. These systems are also known
as CoGenAirHeat units, indicating that they are
- engine-driven air-conditioning,
- refrigeration,
- electric-generation and
- heat recovery units.
We do not expect to be dependent upon a few
customers.
Our on-site sales engineer will develop working
relationships with local utilities and complete
energy audits for prospective customers. Although
the sales cycle to initial system placement may
take up to nine months from the date of the energy
audit, we expect to generate a sustaining backlog
of projected installations. We also anticipate
that successful site-performance histories will
serve as valuable referrals and demonstrations for
on-going system sales and acquisitions as well.
19
Industry background
The bulk of the cogeneration industry today
primarily revolves around large industrial
installations and numerous systems are operating
in the marketplace today. Capital markets have
developed attractive financing mechanisms and
regularly fund such projects. The National Energy
Policy Act of 1992 brought about deregulation in
order to balance out the usage of natural gas and
electricity and alleviate the need to build new
power plants.
Incentive programs that encourage adherence to the
Act constitute an important impetus to our growth.
Because natural gas sales should increase to our
clients, the gas utility in the market of each of
our prospective HVAC licensees/subsidiaries should
be an immediate beneficiary of our installations
and may have an interest in working closely with
us. To the extent that natural gas becomes a more
available power source we anticipate that such
availability will make our natural gas systems
even more attractive.
Power Save International strategy
Our approach has been to overcome the existing
competitive barriers by making cogeneration
technology available to small users and we have
developed:
- a standard line of affordable and
easy to integrate, 100KW to 500 KW cogeneration
modules, with energy efficiency savings;
- a low risk leasing vehicle whose repayment
stream is closely matched to savings and is
compatible with customer needs; and
- administrative policies that can decrease
overhead costs and provide efficient customer
service.
The modular nature of our systems permits us to
fully use HVAC facilities and personnel with other
technological expertise as well as plant and
equipment.
Our corporate and site engineering staff will
- specify,
- design and
- deliver the cogeneration components and/or
modules
20
to a HVAC facility for their assembly,
installation and continuing maintenance.
The expected increase in site placements and
revenues accompanied by new technology is expected
to significantly improve the competitive position
as well as the stability and capabilities of HVAC
organizations.
Products
Technological developments in
- efficiency,
- size and
- standardize manufacturing of sub-systems
and components
have allowed us to provide our CoGenAirHeat System
for
- commercial,
- industrial and
- large residential equipment of all sizes
and BTU capacities.
We can outsource major manufacturing components,
while producing cost-effective solutions to an
underserved market niche of significant size. At
the time of a sale, we will enter into an
agreement with parties to be selected at that time
to manufacture or assemble the project to our
specifications and with components we specify.
No agreements are in place at this time and we
have no plans to set up our own manufacturing
facility.
We sell complete systems with all the components
necessary to provide full cogeneration power and
heat.
Our products have been fully developed and rest
largely upon combining off the shelf components
into attractive systems. We are not dependent
upon any one supplier for any of our components.
Our standard lease agreement requires us to
provide the installation and services necessary to
operate CoGenAirHeat systems and to otherwise
protect our proprietary information for a period
of ten years. We will bear the cost of these
installation and services. If we do not meet our
21
service maintenance obligations under the lease,
the lease terminates and the client will, at their
option, either
- remove equipment and dispose of equipment
with all coasts associated with removal and
disposal to be borne by us, or
- purchase the system from us at the price of
the system's initial installed cost minus
depreciation at the rate of 10% per year or a
purchase price either previously elected by or
available to the client under the lease minus the
service maintenance fees, whichever purchase price
is less.
Competitive advantages
We have formulated our systems and marketing
program so that:
- The customer receives a state of
the art equipment upgrade at no cost by opting to
share the energy savings with us, while the
existing life of his present facility is extended
with efficiency and substantial cost savings, all
under our standard lease agreement and
- The HVAC licensee experiences only
incremental costs under our agreements.
- - - -
Competition
There are approximately 25 air-conditioning
and/or electric generating manufacturers in the
U.S. that produce engine-drive systems, but we
believe that none have successfully addressed the
millions of small businesses that could use some
form of cogeneration equipment. Current
manufacturers have supplied to, and focused upon,
the large industry segment only, to date.
The significant barriers to this market include:
- long sales and installation cycles;
- complicated due diligence procedures for
system financing, and
- costly operational structure need to expand
quickly into new markets.
We have solved these problems by:
- building standard and easily scalable
modules available in weeks;
22
- providing financing with the proceeds of
this offering, if successful or through private
bulk funding or leasing company sources yet to be
determined; and
- by leveraging the existing assets of HVAC
companies through distribution or acquisition
alignments, we accelerate geographical
penetration.
We will also compete with other distributed
generation technologies including fuel cells and
reciprocating engines, available at prices
competitive with existing forms of power
generation.
We believe that our systems will have a
competitive advantage in that they can be easily
scaled to various business sizes and will be more
efficient in handling the load profile of small
business customers. We also believe that our
systems will be
- quiet,
- environmentally clean,
- efficient and
- relatively inexpensive to install, service
and maintain.
Our systems will also compete with solar and wind-
powered systems.
As a result of targeting small businesses that do
not currently have easy access to cogeneration, we
believe we will lead the competition in this
market area upon successful completion of this
offering.
We differ from our competitors in that most
require dismantling the existing system and
installing a completely new system. Our system
supplements and integrates with the existing
system.
Need for cogeneration
Based on our experience, due to increasing
competitive pressures to cut costs, owners and
operators of industrial and commercial facilities
are actively looking for ways to use energy more
efficiently. One option is cogeneration.
23
Cogeneration is the simultaneous production of air
conditioning, or other shaft power usage,
electricity and useful heat from the same fuel
source. Facilities with cogeneration systems use
them to produce their own electricity, and use the
waste heat for
- process steam,
- hot water heating,
- space heating, and
- other thermal needs.
They may also use excess process heat to produce
steam for electricity production.
Cogeneration currently coexists with a regulated
industry that is going through major structural
changes that may limit its application.
Cogeneration applications
Cogeneration systems have been designed and
built by the larger firms in the industry for many
different applications. We have only two
installed systems, both for smaller users. While
most require dismantling the existing system and
installing a completely new system, our system
supplements and integrates with the existing
system.
Large-scale systems can be built on-site at a
plant, or off-site. Off-site plants need to be
close enough to a steam source to cover the cost
of a steam pipeline. Industrial or commercial
facility owners can operate the plants, or a
utility or a non-utility generator may own and
operate them. Manufacturers use 90% of all
cogeneration systems. Some industries and waste
incinerator operators who own their own equipment
realize sizable profits with cogeneration.
Another large-scale application of cogeneration is
for district heating. Many colleges and cities,
which have extensive district heating and cooling
systems, have cogeneration facilities.
The University of Florida has a 42 Megawatt gas
turbine cogeneration plant built in partnership
with the local utility though we were not involved
in any aspect of this installation. Pictures of
the plant as well as descriptions of the system
and other technical references are currently
available on the Internet.
24
Some large cogeneration facilities were built
primarily by other manufacturers to produce power.
They produce only enough steam to meet the
requirements for qualified facilities under the
Public Utilities Regulatory Act of 1978. If no
steam host is nearby, one can be built. For
example, there are large 80 megawatt or more
plants operating under the Public Utilities
Regulatory Act of 1978, that have large
greenhouses as steam hosts" though these are not
our products. The greenhouses operate without
losing money only because their steam heat is
virtually free of charge.
Many utilities have formed subsidiaries to own and
operate cogeneration plants. These subsidiaries
are successful due to the operation and
maintenance experience that the utilities bring to
them. They also usually have a long-term sales
contract lined up before the plant is built. One
example is a 300 megawatt plant that is owned and
operated by a subsidiary co-owned by a utility and
an oil company though we did not participate in
this project. The utility feeds the power
directly into its grid. The oil company uses the
steam to increase production from its nearby oil
wells.
Cogeneration systems are also available to small-
scale commercial and industrial users of
electricity, our only target market. Small-scale
packaged or modular systems are being manufactured
for commercial and light industrial applications.
Modular cogeneration systems are compact, and can
be manufactured economically.
These systems, ranging in size from 20 to 650
kilowatts produce electricity and hot water from
engine waste heat. It is usually best to size the
systems to meet the hot water needs of a building.
Thus, the best applications are for buildings such
as hospitals or restaurants that have a year-round
need for hot water or steam. They can be operated
continuously or only during peak load hours to
reduce peak demand charges, although continuous
operation usually has the quickest payback period.
Cogeneration systems have also been developed for
private residences however this is not a market
that we have an immediate interest in pursuing.
These home-sized cogeneration packages have a
25
capacity of up to 5 kilowatts. Both natural gas-
fueled and oil-fueled systems exist. They are
capable of providing most of the heating and
electrical needs for a home.
Small-scale cogeneration has not been widely used
in the United States due to the initial cost of
buying and installing the system.
Environmental issues
While cogeneration provides several environmental
benefits by making use of waste heat and waste
products, air pollution is a concern any time
fossil fuels or biomass are burned. The major
regulated pollutants include particulates, sulfur
dioxide and nitrous oxides. Water quality, while a
lesser concern, can also be a problem.
New cogeneration plants are subject to an
Environmental Protection Agency permit process
designed to meet National Ambient Air Quality
Standards. Many states have stricter regulations
than the EPA. This can add significantly to the
initial cost of some cogeneration facilities.
Some cogeneration systems, such as diesel engines,
do not capture as much waste heat as other
systems. Others may not be able to use all the
thermal energy that they produce because of their
location. They are therefore less efficient, and
the corresponding environmental benefits are less
than they could be. The environmental impacts of
air and water pollution and waste disposal are
very site-specific for cogeneration. This is a
problem for some cogeneration plants because the
special equipment such as water treatment, air
scrubbers, etc., required to meet environmental
regulations adds to the cost of the project. If,
on the other hand, pollution control equipment is
required for the primary industrial or commercial
process, cogeneration still can be economically
attractive.
We have configured our products with
considerations of environmental and other
regulatory features in mind. Since our system
supplements and integrates with an existing
system, we currently do not believe that we are
subject to any federal and state regulation that
is over and above normal considerations. We do
26
not have any special costs or impact that are an
effect of complying with any environmental laws.
Acquisitions
In April 2000, we entered into a contingent
acquisition agreement whereby we would assume all
the ownership, assets and obligations of Mirage Air
Systems, Inc. upon the successful completion of
this offering. The purchase price was four million
dollars payable in shares and cash. The
transaction did not close and was not completed
prior to the expiration of the agreement.
Future market development
Although the number of cogeneration systems
is growing at a steady rate, certain factors have
and will slow the acceleration of cogeneration
activities. These factors include
- the initial cost of buying and bringing a
cogeneration system on-line,
- maintenance costs, and
- environmental control requirements.
Not all electric utilities need the additional
electricity. They may have excess generation
capacity or a stable customer base. This leads to
lower avoided cost rates, which reduces the
viability of cogeneration projects that rely
heavily on power sales to utilities. In addition,
the deregulation, or restructuring, of electric
power generation makes it more attractive for
developers to become independent power producers
and to build electricity only power plants,
instead of cogeneration plants. There has also
been a great deal of pressure from utility and
industrial special interests to repeal or amend
the Public Utilities Regulatory Act of 1978. If
they are successful, it could be difficult for new
cogeneration projects to get off the ground.
Barring that development, improved technology and
cooperation among industries, businesses,
utilities, and financiers should provide impetus
to the continued development of both cogeneration
projects and independent power production
projects.
27
Intellectual property
We intend to trademark and otherwise brand our
services. If successful, our rights to such
trademarks and service marks will last
indefinitely so long as we continue to use and
police the marks and, with respect to registered
marks, to renew filings with the appropriate
government agencies. We consider that marks will
become material to our business.
Web site
As part of our program to secure added clients, we
have provided a Web site that features a variety
of information for sales engineers and customers
alike. Our national web site features information
for HVAC needs of small business and will contain
as well a chat room to allow questions to be
submitted to our personnel. Each HVAC
licensee/subsidiary will also have a Web site that
relates to his particular territory and community
dynamics. We believe continued participation and
promotion of such Web sites will provide the
important marketing advantages.
Employees
As of March 31, 2002, we had 5 individuals who
served on as needed basis only and are unsalaried.
None of these individuals is represented by a
union. We intend to augment our staff in response
to the proceeds of this offering and the success
of our acquisition and marketing strategies.
Properties
Our principal executive and administrative offices
are located at 5800 NW 64th Avenue, Bldg 26 #109,
Tamarac, FL. We currently occupy 1,000 square
feet of space at a monthly cost of $500, on a
month-to-month basis. Upon completion of this
offering we intend to acquire approximately 2,500
square feet in a nearby facility.

We have no plans or intentions to acquire any
assets from officers, directors or principal
stockholders.
No portion of the proceeds will be used to
reimburse an officer, director and principal
stockholder for services already rendered, assets
previously transferred, or moneys loaned or
advanced. The amount shown as advances from
shareholders in the financial statements at
December 31, 1999 were paid in full in February
2000.
We have kept our payments current and have no
added obligations of such a nature. The amount of
payroll varies as a function of the size of the
proceeds of the offering because we intend to hire
additional sales and other personnel if funding
permits.
29
We currently have 5 individuals who serve on an as
needed basis, and are currently uncompensated. We
will expand that number in response to the pace.
We anticipate hiring added personnel as the
offering progresses and operations require.
Payroll is divided into administrative and
professional personnel as a function of the
general nature of the duties performed.
Administrative personnel are categorized as staff
for activities such as payroll, human resources,
secretarial, and clerical while professional
personnel are categorized as engineers and
managers.
Payroll taxes will be incurred by us and are
included in the estimates for payroll above.
Except as detailed under Material Agreements, all
salaries, bonuses and reimbursements are subject
to our earnings and finances.
We are not in default or in breach of any
debenture indebtedness or financing arrangement.
We have no collective bargaining agreements.
However, we may be confronted with such issues as
we develop our workforce.
With the exception of normal operating revenues,
no material amounts of funds from sources other
than this offering are expected to be used in
conjunction with the proceeds from this offering.
Even if we raise only the minimum amount of the
offering, we do not anticipate any liquidity
problems in the next 12 months and will not be in
default or in breach of any note, loan, lease or
other indebtedness or financing. If required, we
will seek additional sources of funds to include
equipment leasing, equity financing, commercial
bank loans and private investors. There can be
no assurances that we will be eligible for such
loans or that private financing will be available
to us.
If we realize less than the maximum amount from
this offering we intend to prioritize our fund
uses in the following order:
- Inventory
- Advertising/Marketing
- Payroll
30
- Working Capital
- Rent, Utilities, Leases
- Corporate Website
- Insurance
We have no plans for acquisitions at the present
time. We will only seek future acquisitions from
funds available to us on a maximum offering basis.
We believe that the proceeds from this offering
will be sufficient to remove the going concern
opinion, even on a minimum basis, and that
proceeds will permit operations to continue for
the next twelve months.
Pending application by Power Save of the net
proceeds of this offering, the proceeds will be
invested in short-term, interest-bearing
instruments.
Dilution
Purchasers of the common stock offered hereby will
experience an immediate and substantial dilution
in the net tangible book value of their common
stock from the offering price.
Our tangible book value as of December 31, 2001
was $46,234 or $0.01 per share of common stock.
Net tangible book value per share represents the
amount of our tangible net worth divided by the
total number of shares of common stock outstanding
as of December 31, 2001.
The following table illustrates the per share

common shares and investors in this offering.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
Trends and Uncertainties. Demand for our systems
will be dependent on, among other things, market
acceptance of the Power Save products and services
and general economic conditions, which are
cyclical in nature. Inasmuch as a major portion
of Power Save's activities will be the receipt of
revenues from the leasing of our systems on a
guaranteed savings basis, Power Save's business
operations may be adversely affected by Power
Save's competitors and prolonged recessionary
periods.
The outcome of the offering is uncertain. We
require the successful completion of the offering
to finance, engineer and market our equipment
properly and to generate sufficient revenues to
allow us to become profitable. We may require
further advances from Scott Balmer, a director and
sole shareholder to fund operations.
Capital and Source of Liquidity. Power Save
requires substantial capital in order to meet our
ongoing corporate obligations and in order to
continue and expand its current and strategic
business plans. Our working capital had been
obtained through
- a loan from Scott Balmer, an officer,
director and major shareholder,
- outright sales of equipment ($239,449 net
since inception and only $6,800 since 1999), and
- through the sale of marketable securities.
Through the issuance of 296,300 shares of our
preferred stock for liquid marketable securities
valued at $592,600 at the time of the exchange, we
have been able to liquidate a portion of these
shares to generate enough cash to satisfy our
working capital requirements and achieve positive
working capital. This allowed us to obtain enough
liquidity to expand our basic operations because
32
we had acquired enough cash to pay our bills in a
timely fashion and seek additional work through
advertising and business contacts.
Prior to this point in time, we did not have the
liquidity to obtain new business and to finance
the work that we had obtained.
For the year ended December 31, 2001, we did not
engaged in any investing activities.
For the year ended December 31, 2000, we received
proceeds of $362,249 from the sale of marketable
securities resulting in net cash flows provided by
investing activities of $362,249.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, we received
proceeds of $38,974 from the sale of marketable
securities and acquired fixed assets of $2,500.
As a result, net cash provided by investing
activities was $36,474 for the year ended December
31, 1999.
The value of the marketable securities decreased
in value from December 31, 1999 to December 31,
2000. This decrease had a negative impact on
our liquidity and planned operations in 2001 due
to the fact that the proceeds from the sale of
marketable securities was the main source of
revenue used to continue our business plan.
For the year ended December 31, 2001 and the year
ended December 31, 2000, Power Save did not engage
in any financing activities.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, Power Save
received contributed capital of $11,544 resulting
in net cash provided by financing activities of
$11,544.
On a long-term basis, liquidity is dependent on
establishment of operations and receipt of
revenues, additional infusions of capital and debt
financing.
Results of Operations. For the year ended
December 31, 2001, we did not receive any
revenues. We had a net loss of ($67,250) for the
year ended December 31, 2001. Operating expenses
for that period were $68,709 and consisted of
general and administrative expenses of $68,209 and
depreciation and amortization of $500. We had an
interest expense of 2,171 and we received dividend
income of $3,630.
33
For the year ended December 31, 2000, we received
revenues of $4,075 for the sale of equipment and
had a gain on the sale of marketable securities of
$167,249. For the year ended December 31, 2000,
the value of marketable securities were written
down $364,326 to their market value, because, in
the opinion of management, the decline in market
value of the securities was considered to be other
than temporary.
For the year ended December 31, 2000 sales
decreased due to the fact that most of our current
efforts are related to the completion of the
offering presented herein. We are additionally
reviewing and analyzing our two test sites to
determine the performance and marketability of our
product line.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, as compared
to December 31, 1998, we had an increase in sales
from $5,041 to $69,986. This was due to our being
able to sell two of our units to certain clients
in New York.
For the year ended December 31, 2000, general and
administrative expenses were fairly similar in
nature and amount, as compared to the year ended
December 31, 2000. We expect these to
substantially increase once the offering is
completed and a full marketing and sales program
is initiated. We expect the increase in gross
margins from the sales generated will produce a
net income overall for us.
We have recently launched our web site that we
believe will result in additional sales and
revenues, plus market exposure.
In early 2000, we sold a certain number of shares
of our marketable securities we currently hold for
resale. The proceeds from the sales of these
securities allowed us to
- repay all of a shareholder loan ($218,753)
- reduce our obligations due to the major
shareholder ($5,710) and
- provide enough cash to have a current
working capital in excess of $70,000.
We do not have sufficient funds to cover
operations for the next twelve months without
successful completion of at least the minimum
offering. We will rely on additional shareholder
advances to maintain current levels of operations.
34
Plan of Operation. Since inception, our
operations have been limited to
- developing the concepts,
- developing the marketing program and the
basic mechanical modules,
- and raising needed capital.
Once the offering is completed, we expect to
implement a full marketing plan of our product
line and expect to improve our gross margin
through better pricing on our purchase prices from
outside vendors.
If the offering is successful, we will have the
additional capital required to accelerate our
business plan and expand our operations and
marketing activities. --- We will seek certain
acquisitions to further expand our planned
operation. However, we will seek stock-based
acquisitions to preserve cash for the operating
activities.
If the offering is unsuccessful, Power Save may
receive additional shareholder advances and will
pursue other capital and debt financing in the
short term that will allow Power Save to pursue
business plan and, with the success of those
efforts, increase revenues. However, there can be
no assurance that Power Save will be able to
obtain equity or debt financing in the future, if
at all.
Realization of funds on a minimum basis in this
offering will permit us added marketing but
require us to seek added distribution assistance
from a corporate partner, if available (though no
such partner has yet been identified).
We have engaged in the above on a small basis in
order to test our systems and develop marketing
and other information. We will commence an
aggressive marketing campaign in order to realize
the implementation of our plans, based on that
test.
We believe that the proceeds of even the minimum
offering amount will be sufficient to remove the
going concern opinion and that proceeds will
permit operations to continue for the next twelve
months.
35
Determination of Offering Price
Because there has been no market for our common
stock, the public offering price has been
arbitrarily determined by our board of directors.
Among the factors considered were our results of
operations, our current financial condition, our
future prospects, the state of the markets for our
products and services, the experience of
management and the economics of the industry
segment in general.
Plan of Distribution
Plan of Distribution. The common shares are being
offered on a self underwritten basis by Scott
Balmer, Chairman of the board of directors of
Power Save.
Consequently, there may be less due diligence
performed in conjunction with this offering than
would be performed in an underwritten offering.
Although Mr. Balmer is an associated person of
Power Save as that term is defined in Rule 3a4-1
under the Exchange Act, he is deemed not to be a
broker for the following reasons:
- he is not subject to a statutory
disqualification under the Exchange Act at the
time of their participation in the sale of our
securities.
- he will not be compensated for his
participation in the sale of our securities by the
payment of commission or other remuneration based
either directly or indirectly on transactions in
securities.
- he is not an associated person of a broker
or dealer at the time of his participation in the
sale of our securities.
The common shares may be offered by selected
broker/dealers if we are able to retain one or
more. Selected broker/dealers, if any, will
receive the standard industry commission.
As of the date of this prospectus, no broker has
been retained by us for the sale of securities
being offered. In the event a broker who may be
deemed an underwriter is retained by us, an
amendment to our registration statement will be
filed.
36
If broker-dealers are involved in the sale of our
securities, the participating broker-dealer must
transmit any funds received immediately to the
escrow account until the minimum sales threshold
is reached.
No Formal Escrow Account. We have not
established a formal escrow account to hold the
funds until the minimum offering amount is
obtained. The funds will be deposited in a
separate account maintained by Power Save. If
the minimum offering amount is not obtained by
December 31, 2003, the funds will promptly be
refunded within the next business day or as soon
as possible after the termination of the offering
to investors with interest.
Investors cannot withdraw their funds if we
successfully sold the minimum amount but have not
yet terminated the offering.
Material terms of the offering after the effective
date of the registration statement will terminate
the original offer and investors would then be
entitled to a refund.
Management, principal shareholders or their
affiliates may not acquire common shares in the
offering.
Offering Period. The offering period will commence
on the date of this prospectus and will terminate
on December 31, 2003.

performing office work as a temporary. She is the
wife of Scott Balmer.
Director compensation
None of our directors received any
compensation for their services as a director
during fiscal year 1999, 2000 or 2001. After
completion of the offering, we will consider a
small stipend for directors who are not employees
of Power Save and/or participation in a stock
option plan. We reimburse all reasonable expenses
incurred in connection with attending meetings of
the Board. Officers serve at the discretion of
the Board and are elected annually. No director
is selected or serves pursuant to any special
arrangement or contract.
Executive compensation
No executives received compensation from
Power Save in 1999, 2000 or 2001.
Any bonuses would be awarded by the Board of
Directors following a review of our performance in
the previous year and a judgment that such bonuses
were warranted. The Board may also choose
additional forms of compensation if our and the
individual's performance both so warranted. The
formula or criteria for determining bonuses past
2000 has not yet been established.
Stock option and exercise prices
We have no stock option plan at the present
time and there are no outstanding stock options
that have been granted to anyone.
41
Employment agreements
We will enter into three-year employment
agreements containing confidentiality and non-
compete provisions with all current officers and
we intend to negotiate similar agreements with new
executive officers. We expect to have these in
place during the fourth quarter 2001. The
employment agreements will specify salary, other
forms of compensation, termination and other
provisions to protect both our rights and those of
the employee.
Each employment agreement also will provide
that the employee is entitled to a bonus as
determined by the board of directors, from time to
time, and options under Power Save's Stock Option
Plan, if adopted. Each Employment Agreement will
provide for a term of three years and is renewable
upon mutual consent. The employment agreements may
be terminated for cause and, in the event of
change in control of Power Save, each employee is
entitled to a lump sum payment equal to the
greater of one year's salary or the baser salary
and benefits that would have been received by the
employee if he/she had remained employed by us the
remainder of the three year term. The employment
agreements also contain confidentiality and non-
competition provisions prohibiting the employee
from competing against us and disclosing trade
secrets and other proprietary information.
Courts have often held that such non-compete
agreements are contrary to public policy and may
easily not be enforceable.

Indemnification
Our bylaws do not contain a provision entitling
any director or executive officer to
indemnification against liability under the
Securities Act of 1933. The Nevada Revised
Statutes allows a company to indemnify its
officers, directors, employees, and agents from
any threatened, pending, or completed action,
suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative, or investigative, except under
certain circumstances.
Indemnification may only occur if a determination
has been made that the officer, director,
employee, or agent acted in good faith and in a
manner, which such person believed to be in the
best interests of the company. A determination may
be made by the shareholders; by a majority of the
directors who were not parties to the action,
suit, or proceeding confirmed by opinion of
independent legal counsel; or by opinion of
independent legal counsel in the event a quorum of
directors who were not a party to such action,
suit, or proceeding does not exist.
Provided the terms and conditions of these
provisions under law are met, officers, directors,
employees, and agents of Power Save may be
indemnified against any cost, loss, or expense
arising out of any liability under the '33 Act.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising
under the '33 Act may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of Power Save.
Power Save has been advised that in the opinion of
43
the Securities and Exchange Commission, such
indemnification is against public policy and is,
therefore, unenforceable.
Certain Transactions
We currently use office space from a major
stockholder, Mr. Scott Balmer. Mr. Balmer is not
charging us for the use of the office space. We
have recorded contributed capital for the
estimated cost of the space at $500 per month
starting January 1998 with and offset to rent
expense. Mr. Balmer has provided free services to
us. These services included any administrative,
development or marketing services necessary to
promote and develop the business. We have
recorded contributed capital for the estimated
cost of the services at $1,500 per month starting
January 1998 with an offset to officer
compensation. Mr. Balmer has made certain
advances to us on an interest free basis, payable
upon demand. From inception of the loans to
December 31, 1996, we have computed interest on
the advances at 8% and treated the interest of
$70,318 as contributed capital with an offset to
interest expense. From 1997 forward we have
accrued interest on the advances, until paid, as a
liability with an offset to interest expense.
During the period ended December 31, 2000 we paid
off the advances, which at the time were $218,753
and paid down the accrued interest to $32,134.
We believe that all of the transactions set
forth in this document were made on terms of less
favorable to us than could have been obtained from
unaffiliated third parties. We intend that all
future transactions, including loans, between us
and our officers, directors, principal
shareholders and their affiliates will be approved
by a majority of the board of directors, including
any outside directors, and be on terms no less
favorable to us than could be obtained from
unaffiliated third parties. Power Save currently
has no outside directors.
Market for Common Stock and Related
Stockholder Matters
Market Information. Power Save's common stock is
not listed in the pink sheets or in the OTC
Bulletin Board maintained by the NASD.
44
Holders. The approximate number of holders of
record of Power Save's common stock, as of October
31 was one.
Dividends. Holders of Power Save's common stock
are entitled to receive such dividends as may be
declared by its board of directors.
Shares Eligible for Future Sale
Power Save currently has 6,414,149 of common stock
outstanding. Assuming completion of the offering,
there will be 7,614,149 common shares outstanding.
Of these, 6,414,149 common shares, all held by
Scott Balmer, chairman of the board of directors,
will be deemed to be restricted securities.
These common shares are subject to a lock-up
agreement until one-year from the date the offering
is fully subscribed or terminated.
Other securities may be issued, in the future, in
private transactions pursuant to an exemption from
the Securities Act. Rule 144 provides, in essence,
that a person who has held restricted securities
for a period of one year may sell every three
months in a brokerage transaction or with a market
maker an amount equal to the greater of 1% of Power
Save's outstanding shares or the average weekly
trading volume, if any, of the shares during the
four calendar weeks preceding the sale.
The amount of restricted securities which a person
who is not an affiliate of Power Save may sell is
not so limited. Nonaffiliates may each sell
without limitation shares held for two years. Power
Save will make application for the listing of its
Shares in the over-the-counter market. Sales under
Rule 144 may, in the future, depress the price of
Power Save's Shares in the over-the-counter market,
should a market develop. Prior to this offering
there has been no public market for the common
stock of Power Save. The effect, if any, of a
public trading market or the availability of shares
for sale at prevailing market prices cannot be
predicted. Nevertheless, sales of substantial
amounts of shares in the public market could
adversely affect prevailing market prices.
Description of Securities
The authorized capital stock of Power Save
consists of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par
value $0.001. On December 31, 2001, 6,414,149
45
shares of common stock were issued and outstanding
and there is one holder of the common stock.
50,000,000 preferred shares are authorized and
296,300 have been issued and are outstanding.
All of the currently outstanding shares of common
stock are subject to a lock-up agreement and
therefore cannot be placed upon the market for
one-year from the date of the offering is fully
subscribed or terminated.
The holders of common stock are entitled to
one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon
by the stockholders and do not have cumulative
voting rights. The holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of common stock represented at
a meeting at which a quorum is present may elect
all directors to be elected at the meeting.
Holders of the common stock may take action
without a meeting of stockholders if a consent in
writing setting forth such action is signed by the
holders of the majority of all outstanding shares
of common stock.
The holders of common stock are entitled to
receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be
declared from time to time by the Board of
Directors out of legally available funds. In the
event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of Power Save, the holders of common stock are
entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining
after payment of liabilities. There are no
preemptive rights, redemption or sinking fund
provisions applicable to the common stock. All
outstanding shares of common stock are, and the
shares of common stock to be outstanding upon
completion of the offering will be, fully paid and
non-assessable. The dividends and liquidation
rights of holders of common stock are subject to
the rights and preferences of the holders of
shares of any series of preferred stock that Power
Save may issue in the future.
The preferred stock is non-voting, non-dividend
bearing, redeemable by Power Save and convertible
to common stock at $.50 per common share by the
holder upon successful completion of this
offering.
46
No material terms of our by-laws are believed
to exist that would delay, defer or prevent a
change of control of the company. The staggered
terms of our board of directors relate to the time
that they originally agreed to serve and were
elected and do not constitute a barrier to change
in control.
Legal Proceedings
We are not a party to any material
litigation. However, claims and litigation may
arise in the normal course of business.

Independent Auditor's Report
Board of Directors and Stockholders
POWER SAVE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
I have audited the accompanying balance sheets of
Power Save International, Inc. (a developmental
stage company) as of December 31, 2001, 2000, and
1999 and the related statements of operations,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years
then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. My
responsibility is to express an opinion on the
financial statements based on my audits. The
financial statements of Power Save International,
Inc. at August 31, 1996, were audited by other
auditors whose report thereon dated October 29,
1996, expressed an opinion with an explanatory
paragraph as to going concern. The cumulative
information from September 1, 1996 to December 31,
1997 was compiled by other accountants, whose
reports dated at various times during that period,
stated that they did not express an opinion or any
other assurance on those statements.
I conducted my audits in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States
of America. Those standards require that I plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. I believe that my audits provided a
reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Power Save International,
Inc. as of December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, and
the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the years then ended in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as
a going concern. As discussed in Notes 3 and 4,
the Company is in the development stage and has
sustained significant losses from inception to date
and there is no assurance that the Company can
51
realize sufficient doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans regarding those matters is also
discussed in Notes 3 and 4. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

POWER SAVE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - THE COMPANY
The predecessor company of Power Save
International, Inc. (the Company), a Nevada
corporation was incorporated on May 8m, 1987 under
the name Florida Pacific Corporation. In December
1998, Power Save Products was merged into Florida
Pacific and the name was changed to Power Save
International, Inc. After a change in control in
1999, the name was changed to Interactive Music,
Inc. The sole shareholder repurchased the assets,
liabilities and transferred them into a new
corporation formed in Nevada on July 22, 1999 whose
name was changed to Power Save International, Inc.
The Company is currently consulting, creating and
providing commercial and industrial energy
efficient, engine driven or electrically driven
oxygen plants, air conditioning, refrigeration,
compressed air and electric generating plant
designs and systems, for domestic and export
applications, from a variety of energy technology
related products, developed over the years. The
Company's products are being sold in the eastern
United States.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies of
Power Save International, Inc. (the Company) is
presented to assist in understanding the Company's
financial statements. The financial statements and
notes are representations of the Company's
management, which is responsible for their
integrity and objectivity. These accounting
policies conform to generally accepted accounting
principles and have been consistently applied in
the preparation of the financial statements.
Accounting method - The Company's financial
statements are prepared using the accrual method of
accounting.
Inventories - Due to the nature of the Company's
business it has no inventories. All of the systems
described in Note 1 are built by outside
manufacturers and subcontractors. The Company pays
for these finished products and provides them to
their customers.
64
POWER SAVE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-CONTINUED
Equipment - Equipment is stated at cost.
Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation is determined using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, which is three to ten years.
Product Rights - Product rights were to be
amortized over revenue generating operations based
on management's expectations of the life of such
technology acquired. In 1998, the remaining cost of
the product rights were reserved in total leaving a
zero balance at December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999.
(see note 5).
Earnings (Loss) Per Share - The Company adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 128,
"Earnings per Share"("SFAS No. 128"), which is
effective for annual periods ending after December
15, 1997. Earnings (loss) per share are computed
based on the weighted average number of shares
actually outstanding which was 6,414,149 for all
periods presented. No changes in the computations
of diluted earnings per share amount are presented,
since there were no capital stock transactions that
would serve to dilute common shares.
Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income
taxes using the asset and liability method. The
differences between the financial statement and tax
bases of assets and liabilities is determined
annually. Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are computed for those differences that
have future tax consequences using the currently
enacted tax laws and rates that apply to the period
in which they are expected to affect taxable
income. Valuation allowances are established, if
necessary, to reduce deferred tax asset accounts to
the amounts that will more likely than not be
realized. Income tax expense is the current tax
payable or refundable for the period, plus or minus
the net change in the deferred tax asset and
liability accounts.
Statement of Cash Flows - The Company considers (if
and when they have any) all highly liquid
investments with maturities of three months or less
to be cash equivalents. During 1999 the Company
65
POWER SAVE INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-
CONTINUED
had a non-cash transaction as explained in Note 9.
The Company had no non-cash investing and financing
transactions during 2001 and 2000.
Issuance of Shares for Services and Other Assets -
Valuation of shares for services and other acquired
assets were based on the fair market value of
services received.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Revenue Recognition - The Company's sale of plant
design and revenue from plant installation is done
within a short time since its plants are designed
for small commercial sites and buildings and are
generally completed within a few months. The
Company recognizes revenue as earned at the
completion of the contract. To date, the
Company's contract sales have been from "outright"
sales of its installations. The Company's
business plan proposes a future contract
transaction with its customers through a method it
calls a guaranteed savings plan. The systems
installed under this method will be owned by the
Company and leased to the sites for a ten-year
period. Power savings incurred by the customer
will be paid to the Company under the lease. The
Company will receive a reduced amount or up to a
100% reduction in this share if the savings do not
materialize. Since the Company has no such
contracts of this nature through December 31, 2001,
and this future contract method is not applicable
to these financial statements, no revenue have been
recognized under this method and no potential
liability, if any, under this method has been
recorded in these financial statements.

POWER SAVE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-CONTINUED
Organization and start-up costs - The Company has
adopted SOP 98-5 "Reporting on the Costs of Start-
up Activities." The SOP requires costs of start-up
activities and organization costs to be expensed as
incurred.
Comprehensive Income - The Company adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 130,
"Comprehensive Income"("SFAS No. 130"), which is
effective for annual periods ending after December
15, 1997. As provided by SFAS No. 130,
reclassification adjustments to prior year amounts
are reported in a separate statement of
comprehensive income along with current year
components of comprehensive income.
Reclassifications - Certain prior year amounts have
been reclassified to conform with December 31, 2001
classifications.
Marketable Securities - Marketable securities
consist of common stock. Marketable securities are
stated at market value as determined by the most
recently traded price of each security at the
balance sheet date. All marketable securities are
defined as trading securities or available-for-sale
securities under the provisions of SFAS No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities." Management determines the
appropriate classification of its investments in
marketable securities at the time of purchase and
re-evaluates such determination at each balance
sheet date. Securities that are bought and held
principally for the purpose of selling them in the
near term are classified as trading securities and
unrealized holding gains and losses are included in
earnings. Debt securities for which the company
does not have the intent or ability to hold to
maturity and equity securities are classified as
available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities
are carried at fair value, with the unrealized
gains and losses, net of tax if applicable,
reported as a separate component of stockholders'
equity in accumulated other comprehensive income.
The company at this time has no trading securities.
NOTE 3 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSIDERATIONS
RELATED TO CONTINUED EXISTENCE
The Company's financial statements have been
presented on the basis that it is a going concern,
which contemplates the realization of assets and
the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
course of business. The Company incurred net
losses of $67,250, $288,381 and $98,337 for the
years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Additionally, the Company has
incurred losses of $1,801,987 from inception
through December 31, 2001. These factors, among
others, raise substantial doubt as to the Company's
ability to obtain debt and/or equity financing and
achieve profitable operations.
The Company's management intends to raise
additional operating funds through equity and/or
debt offerings. However, there can be no assurance
management will be successful in its endeavors.
Ultimately, the Company will need to achieve
profitable operations in order to continue as a
going concern.
68
POWER SAVE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 3 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSIDERATIONS
RELATED TO CONTINUED EXISTENCE - CONTINUED
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any
adjustments to reflect the possible future effects
on the recoverability and classification of assets
or the amounts and classification of liabilities
that may result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
NOTE 4 - DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY
The Company is a development stage company as
defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement No. 7. It has yet to commence full-scale
operations. From inception through December 31,
2001, the Company did not have any net income from
operations. At the current time, the Company has
$72,688 in assets and $26,454 in liabilities.
The Company has not yet generated significant
revenue and has begun to fund its operations
through the issuance of equity. Accordingly, the
Company's ability to accomplish its business
strategy and to ultimately achieve profitable
operations is dependent upon its ability to obtain
additional financing and execute its business plan.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to obtain additional funding, and, if
available, that the funding will be obtained on
terms favorable to or affordable by the Company.
The Company's management is exploring several
funding options and expects to raise additional
capital through private placements to continue to
develop the Company's operations around its
business plan. Ultimately, however, the Company
will need to achieve profitable operations in order
to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 5 - PRODUCT RIGHTS
The Company acquired certain product rights,
development costs and other intangible assets at a
cost of $244,000 from H.C. Technology, Inc. (a
then related corporation). These assets were
appraised on September 15, 1987 for $1,480,000 and
such assets include product technology, employee
replacement costs, marketing programs, trade names,
and other assets with determinable value. Since
69
POWER SAVE INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 5 - PRODUCT RIGHTS(continued)
the acquisition of these assets was a number of
years ago, the valuation carried on the books was
reserved to a zero value at December 31, 2001, 2000
and 1999.
NOTE 6 - LICENSE FEE
The Company had a license for a design of a thermal
compression hemispheric jet chiller to utilize a
source of heat to provide chilled water for use in
refrigeration and air-conditioning systems to
reduce the energy consumption of systems in which
they were to be incorporated. This license fee has
expired and all related costs were fully amortized
at the end of 1998.
NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes arise from temporary
differences resulting from income and expense items
reported for financial accounting and tax purposes
in different periods. Deferred taxes are
classified as current or non-current, depending on
the classification of the assets and liabilities to
which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from
temporary differences that are not related to an
asset or liability are classified as current or
non-current depending on the periods in which the
temporary differences are expected to reverse.
Amounts for estimated tax and deferred tax
liabilities and assets are as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 8 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company currently utilizes office space from a
major stockholder of the Company. The stockholder
is not charging the Company for the use of the
office space. The Company has recorded contributed
capital, or a charge to the liability owed to the
stockholder, for the estimated cost of the space at
$500 per month starting January 1998 with and
offset to rent expense. The same stockholder and
director of the Company has provided free services
to the Company. The Company has recorded
contributed capital, or a charge to accrued
interest owed to the stockholder for the estimated
cost of the services at $1,500 per month starting
January 1998 with an offset to officer
compensation.
The same stockholder, and director had made certain
advances to the Company on an interest free basis,
payable upon demand. From inception of the loans
to December 31, 1996, the Company has computed
interest on the advances at 8% and has treated the
interest of $74,318 as contributed capital with an
offset to interest expense. From 1997 forward the
Company had accrued interest on the advances, until
paid, as a liability with an offset to interest
expense. During the year ended December 31, 2000,
the Company paid off the advances, which at the
time were $218,753, and paid down certain accrued
liabilities to $32,134. During the year ended
December 31, 2001, the Company paid down certain
accrued liabilities to $23,018. The accrued
interest on the stockholder loans that remain
unpaid also carries interest at 8%.
NOTE 9 - NON-CASH TRANSACTIONS
The following non-cash investing and financing
activities occurred during the period from
inception through December 31, 2001:
During 1991, the Company exchanged 50,000 shares of
its preferred stock for certain license fees valued
at $500,000. During 1990, the Company issued
certain shares of its common stock for a prepaid
lease valued at $225,000.
72
POWER SAVE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 9 - NON-CASH TRANSACTIONS(continued)
During 1996, the Company exchanged 2,000,000 shares
of preferred stock for oil and gas properties
valued at $10,000,000. This transaction was
rescinded. For financial statement purposes the
transaction was treated as being rescinded in 1998.
During 1999, the Company exchanged 296,300 shares
of preferred stock for marketable securities valued
at the time of exchange at $592,600. The value of
the securities was determined by using market
quotes for the stock at the time of the exchange.
NOTE 10 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Company's Preferred Stock is non-voting, non-
dividend bearing, redeemable and convertible to
common stock at the time the Company and the
holders of the preferred stock deem it appropriate.
The Company and its assets were spun off from the
previously owned parent company when a majority
interest of the common stock in the old company was
sold to a consulting group by the principal
shareholder. The assets and liabilities were
transferred to the current corporation and all the
activities from inception through December 31, 2001
have remained with the current company.
The Board of Directors has authorized a stock
issuance totaling 1,000,000 shares of its common
stock at $5.00 per share. The offering will be
filed under the Securities Act of 1933 or an
exemption under the Act.
The Company had paid certain offering costs related
to the above mentioned offering totaling $27,658.
These offering costs were written off because they
were over 90 days old. It is expected that
additional legal and accounting costs will be
incurred in relation to the offering. For the year
ended December 31, 2001, the Company has paid an
additional $8,793 in deferred offering costs, which
were also written off. If the current offering is
successful, any additional current costs will be
offset against any gross proceeds received.
Otherwise, the costs will be written off to expense
at the time the offering is deemed unsuccessful or
terminated.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 10 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Company has adopted SFAS 130, which requires
presentation of comprehensive income(net income
plus all other changes in net assets from non-owner
sources) and its components in the financial
statements. The company has changed the format of
its statements of stockholders' equity to present
comprehensive income. Accumulated other
comprehensive income or loss shown in the
statements of stockholders' equity at December 31,
2001, is solely comprised of the accumulated change

Item 14 Indemnification.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Act") may be permitted to
directors, officers and controlling persons of
Registrant pursuant to the provisions of its
Restated Articles of Incorporation, Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by Registrant for expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of 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, 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 Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.
