Wacker Dr. #4000 Chicago IL 60606 (ADDRESS OF PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES) 800-788-3599 (U.S. Message Center) REGISTRANT'S TELEPHONE NUMBER ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS. Leading Edge Earth Product, Inc., Chicago, Illinois, (OTC BB: "LEEP"), reports that because of financial constraints, the company is cutting back operations and focusing on performance to SEC filing requirements and catching up with Landlord and Vendor overdue accounts. Should the company not make its annual 10-KSB filing by September 2, 2002, LEEP's stock would only be listed on the OTC trading screen until the SEC's receipt of the filing of the company's 10-KSB report for fiscal year ending April 30, 2001. Manufacturing operations can proceed when space rent is brought current. Management's announcement of these issues constitutes additive risks to the risks listed in the company's 10-KSB report to the SEC for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2001. Based on relationships the company has developed with a representative group of leading Modular Building Manufacturers and LEEP's in-place manufacturing capability to support its market penetration phase, management is confident that contemplated financings will materialize that enable the company to comply with securities filing requirements, satisfy vendor payable obligations and resume manufacturing operations, however, no guarantees can be provided. The Company manufacturers a proprietary component and building system known as LeepCore(TM). The product is designed to construct exceptionally high-performance buildings. Unique features include; fast design and build cycles for floor, roof and wall construction; peerless thermal insulation properties; and fire, insect, moisture, dry rot, mold, corrosion, termite, wind and earthquake resistance.
