SELLING STOCKHOLDER
PROSPECTUS
SUBJECT TO COMPLETION
Westnet Communication Group, Inc.
3,500,000 Shares of Common Stock
Offering Price $0.04 per share
This Prospectus relates to the sale of 3,500,000 shares of common stock of
Westnet Communication Group, Inc. held by all of the existing stockholders of
the Company. This will be the initial public sale of our stock, so there is
currently no market for our shares.
All of the shares registered are being offered by the selling stockholders.
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of these shares by the
selling stockholders. Securities sold, and proceeds of the sales, will be held
in an escrow account meeting the requirements of Rule 419 of Regulation C under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. See "Selling Shareholders and Plan of
Distribution -- Escrow Account" on page 23.
Prior to this offering, no public market has existed for shares of our
common stock. We hope to have our common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board,
but there is no assurance that we will do so, or that a trading market in our
shares will develop.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities
commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the
accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a
criminal offense.
An investment in us is very risky, especially considering our young age and
our lack of an income-producing business. Only people who can afford to lose all
of their investment should purchase our shares (see "Risk Factors" on page 8 of
this prospectus for special risks concerning us and the offering).
The date of the Prospectus is , 2000.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
We incorporated in Nevada in 1999 for the purpose of developing a
special-interest world wide web site. We raised capital through private sales of
our common stock to a few investors and officers; however, our resources were
insufficient to properly carry out our business plan. We abandoned our original
business plan to focus on uncovering alternate business or investment
opportunities, or to acquire, merge with or be acquired by an operating
business. Since our inception, we have never received revenues from operating a
business.
Our management believes that becoming a reporting public shell company will
make us an attractive candidate for a business combination, and so we have
voluntarily registered our outstanding securities under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 to become a reporting company. Our Exchange Act registration became
effective April 24, 2000. Exchange Act Registration does not imply that the
Securities and Exchange Commission or any securities regulatory body has ruled
on the merits of an investment in our securities, or on the accuracy or
completeness of our disclosures. See "Description of Our Business" beginning on
page 12, and "Regulation" on page 15.
We are considered to be a "blank check" company under the federal
securities laws, because we have no specific business plan and our securities
are not traded on a stock exchange. Rule 419 of Regulation C under the
Securities Act of 1933 requires that the sales of shares in a blank check
company be transacted through an escrow account meeting the requirements of that
Rule. See "Selling Shareholders and Plan of Distribution -- Escrow Account" on
page 23.
Investing in the securities of a blank check company is extremely risky.
Those risks include the potential for losing your entire investment. Specific
risks are discussed under "Risk Factors" beginning on page 8.
We maintain our mailing address at 2921 N. Tenaya Way, Suite 216, Las
Vegas, Nevada 89128. Our phone number is (702) 947-4877.

THE OFFERING
The selling shareholders may sell a total of up to 3,500,000 shares of
common stock.
The shares are being offered at $0.04 per share. The selling shareholders
have not entered into any underwriting arrangements for the sale of the shares.
If a selling shareholder engages any broker, dealer, underwriter, or sales agent
to help sell the shares, the selling shareholder, and not the company, will bear
the costs of any resulting commissions, brokerage fees, or underwriting
discounts. See "Selling Security Holders and Plan of Distribution" beginning on
page 22.
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the
selling shareholders.

RISK FACTORS
------------
Any investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You
should carefully consider the following information about those risks, together
with the other information contained in this prospectus, before you decide
whether to buy our shares. Should any one or more of these risks actually
materialize, the results of our operations and our financial condition would
likely suffer. In that event, the market price of our common stock could
decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.
The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face.
You should realize that investing in penney stocks and particularly in blank
check companies is by nature very risky.
We Have No Operating History, No Revenue and Minimal Assets. We have no
history of operating a business, nor have we produced any revenues or earnings.
Our only tangible resources are our small cash reserves. We believe we have
enough cash to meet our needs for at least 12 months while we evaluate potential
business combinations or other opportunities. But we will, in all likelihood,
continue to incur operating expenses without corresponding revenues, at least
until we can complete a business combination. This may result in our incurring a
net operating loss which will increase continuously until we can complete a
business combination with a profitable business opportunity. There is no
assurance that we can identify a suitable business opportunity and complete a
business combination before our cash is depleted, if at all.
Our Success Depends Upon Our Management, Who Lack Experience in Mergers and
Acquistions and Will Not Devote Full Time to Our Business. Even if we succeed in
entering into a business combination it may not be on terms most favorable to
the Company or our shareholders. Our management has very limited experience in
locating, evaluating, and negotiating with companies that may be suitable for a
business combination with us. Furthermore, each member of our current management
is engaged in other, unrelated business pursuits, and will devote only part of
his or her working hours to our affairs. We may confer with business
consultants, investment banks, attorney firms, accountants or other business
professionals to help us identify and evaluate opportunities, but our available
resources for those sorts of consultations are very limited.
Our Proposed Operations are by Nature Very Risky. The success of our
proposed plan of operation will depend to a great extent on the operations,
financial condition and management of the particular business opportunity we
decide to pursue. While we intend to seek a business combination with an entity
that has established an operating history, we cannot assure you that we will be
successful in locating candidates meeting any particular criteria. In the event
we complete a business combination, there will likely be significant changes in
our management. Accordingly, the success of our future operations may depend
upon the management of the successor firm and numerous other factors beyond our
control.
-8-
State Blue Sky Regulations May Make It Difficult for You to Resell Our
Stock. If you purchase shares of our Common Stock from the selling shareholders,
you may find it difficult or impossible to sell or transfer them. The individual
states have enacted laws (separate from the federal securities laws) regulating
the registration and sales of securities within their their own jursidictions.
We currently have no plans to register any of our securities with any state,
which means that you will not be able to re-sell the securities in a state
unless you register them with that state, or unless an exemption from
registration is available. To ensure that state laws are not violated through
the resales of our securities, we will refuse to register the transfer of any of
our securities unless we are satisfied that the transfer doesn't violate any
state laws. We do not expect a secondary trading market for the Company's stock
to develop in any state until after we have completed a merger with, or an
acquisition of, an operating company, if at all.
We Currently Have No Agreement for a Business Combination or Merger
Transaction, and No Specific Standards for One, Which Makes an Evaluation of Us
Very Difficult. We currently have no arrangement, agreement or understanding
regarding engaging in a merger with, a joint venture with or an acquisition of,
a private or public company. We can not be certain that we will be successful in
identifying and evaluating suitable business opportunities or in concluding a
business combination. We have not identified any particular industry or specific
business within an industry to evaluate, and even if we identify such a company
we cannot assure you that we will be able to negotiate a business combination on
terms favorable to us. We have not established specific requirements or
characteristics for a company we will evaluate, such as a specific length of
operating history or a specified level of earnings, assets, net worth or other
criteria. All of these uncertainties make an evaluation of our business
prospects very difficult.
It Will be Difficult for Us to Locate and Complete a Suitable Acquisition
or Business Combination. We are, and will continue to be, a minor participant in
the business of seeking mergers with, and acquisitions of, small private and
public businesses. A large number of established and well-financed entities,
including venture capital firms and investment banks, are active in mergers
-9-
and acquisitions of companies of the type which we may be interested in
acquiring or merging with. We believe that nearly all of the firms competing
with us have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and
managerial capabilities than we have. Consequently, we will be at a competitive
disadvantage in identifying possible business opportunities and successfully
completing a business combination. Moreover, we may also have to compete in
seeking merger or acquisition candidates with other small public companies like
ourselves. All of these factors could make it very difficult for us to achieve
our current business objectives.
A Business Combination Transaction May Involve Conflicts of Interest On the
Part of Our Management. It is possible that various conflicts of interest and
non-arms length transactions may arise in the future in connection with our
selection of a target Company to acquire or to merge with. For instance, it is
possible that the terms of a business combination may include such terms as one
or more of our officers or directors continuing to serve as officers or
directors of the merged entity. There may also be a payment in cash or some
other consideration to officers or directors for the purchase or retirement of
all or part of our common stock held by them. The officers and directors would
directly benefit from such a payment, and those benefits may influence their
selection of a target company. Our Articles of Incorporation provide that we may
indemnify our officers and/or directors for liabilities, which can include
liabilities arising under the securities laws. Therefore, assets of the Company
could be used or attached to satisfy any liabilities arising out of that
indemnification. See "Management -- Indemnification of Officers and Directors"
beginning on page 18.
Management and Shareholder Control Will Probably Change. If we enter into a
business combination involving the issuance of our Common Shares, it
is likely that the shareholders of a private company will obtain a controlling
interest in us. Such a business combination may require our management to sell
or transfer all or a portion of our Common Stock Shares held by them, or resign
as members of the Board of Directors of the Company, or both. The resulting
change in our control could result in the removal of present officers
and a corresponding reduction in -- or elimination of -- their participation in
the future affairs of the Company.
-10-
Penny Stocks Can be Risky and Unsuitable for Many Investors. In the event
that a public market develops for our common stock following a business
combination, our stock may be classified as a "penny stock" depending upon the
market price and the manner in which it is traded. The Securities and Exchange
Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a penny
stock, for purposes relevant to our company, as any equity security that has a
market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than
$5.00 per share whose securities are admitted to quotation but do not trade on
the Nasdaq SmallCap Market or on a national securities exchange. For any
transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require that the
broker deliver a document to investors stating the risks of investment in penny
stocks, the possible lack of liquidity, commissions to be paid, current
quotation and investors' rights and remedies, a special suitability inquiry,
regular reporting to the investor and other requirements. Prices for penny
stocks are often not available and investors are often unable to sell penney
stocks. Thus you may lose your entire investment in a penny stock and
consequently should be cautious of any purchase of penny stocks.
If You Purchase Shares On This Offering, Your Percentage Share Ownership
May be Reduced Following a Business Combination. Our primary plan of operation
is based upon a business combination with a private concern which, depending on
the terms of merger or acquisition, may result in the Company issuing securities
to shareholders of the private company. Our issuance of previously authorized
and unissued Common Shares would result in a reduction in the percentage of
shares owned by our present shareholders and by purchasers on this offering
(commonly called "dilution").
There is a Potential for Unfavorable Tax Treatment. Federal and state tax
consequences will, in all likelihood, be major considerations in any business
combination we may undertake. Currently, transactions like the one we are
seeking may be structured so as to result in tax-free treatment to both
companies, according to various federal and state tax provisions. We intend to
structure any business combination so as to minimize the federal and state tax
consequences to both the Company and the target entity; however, there can be no
assurance that we can comply with the statutory requirements of a tax-free
reorganization or that the parties will obtain the intended tax-free treatment
when they transfer stock or assets. If a business combination should fail to
qualify as a tax-free reorganization, both parties could suffer adverse federal
and state tax consequences.
-11-
Our Shareholders May Not Have a Say in the Selection of a Business
Opportunity. If and when our Management decides to enter into a business
combination or opportunity, we do not expect to submit the matter to a vote of
the shareholders in advance of completing a transaction. We are authorized and
may elect to enter into any lawful transaction in the discretion of the Board of
Directors. Consequently, it is unlikely that you as a shareholder will have a
voice in the selection of a business opportunity for the Company, or in the
terms of any acquisition or business combination we may undertake. You will,
however, be given an opportunity to affirm or withdraw your offer to purchase
securities after we have amended our registration statement to include
information about a merger or acquisition, and have delivered to you a new
prosectus including the information. See "Selling Securityholders and Plan of
Distribution -- Escrow Account" beginning on page 23.
THE COMPANY
-----------
DESCRIPTION OF OUR BUSINESS.
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 14, 1999, for the
purpose of developing and operating a special interest worldwide web site
community. Prior to fully implementing our business plan, however, we determined
that our capital resources were inadequate, and we abandoned the plan. We then
resolved to investigate possibilities for investing in an existing business
enterprise, or forming a business combination with an operating company of some
sort. To date, we have not been successful in locating such a venture or
company, and there is no assurance that we will be successful in the future. We
have been a development stage company since our inception, and we have no
prospects for generating any revenues or earning any profits unless or until we
can complete a business combination with an operating company, or begin
operating a business of some sort.
We believe that there are companies already conducting business operations
which could benefit from entering into a business combination with a "public"
company. In some circumstances, a transaction of that nature might aid the
company in establishing a public trading market for its stock, while avoiding
possible adverse consequences of doing its own public offering. These
consequences may include, among others:
o time delays of the registration process;
o significant expenses likely to be incurred in such an offering;
o loss of voting control to public shareholders; and
o the inability or unwillingness to comply with various federal and state
laws enacted for the protection of investors.
-12-
However, a private company which perceives these or other advantages to entering
a business combination with a public company is not permitted to do so as a way
of evading the financial disclosure requirements of the Exchange Act.
Accordingly, any company that is not willing and able to provide a current
audited financial statement within a reasonable period following the
complettion of a business combination will not be a suitable candidate for a
business combination with us.
We have not established any particular parameters or guidelines as to the
type, nature, suitability or any other characteristics of any business or
company which we may seek to acquire, invest in or form a business combination
with. The expertise and interests of the present management lie in the areas of
psychological services, education and publishing; however, the Board of
Directors has resolved to consider any viable opportunities it becomes aware of
regardless of the business or industry. In reviewing possible acquisition
targets and investment opportunities, we will perform, or engage someone to
perform, only that investigation and evaluation which our Directors deem
necessary and appropriate before deciding whether and on what terms to proceed
with a business combination, if at all. No member of our Board has any
particular experience or expertise in performing these sorts of evaluations, or
in negotiating mergers and acquisitions, and so we remain uncertain as to when,
if ever, the Company will become profitable.
We are likely to face significant competition for available business and
investment opportunities, mostly from substantial competitors with far greater
resources and expertise than we possess. Our competitors include venture capital
firms, investment banks, and large professional groups such as attorney firms,
accounting firms, and business consultants (see "Competition" on page 15).
In furtherance of our current business objective, we have voluntarily
registered our outstanding common stock pursuant to Section 12(g) of the
Exchange Act. We are informed and believe, although there can be no assurance,
that our ability to attract and successfully negotiate a business combination
with an operating company, or to pursue certain business opportunities, may be
enhanced by our becoming a reporting company under the Exchange Act. The
Company's registration statement became effective April 24, 2000, making us
subject to the reporting requirements of that Act as of that date. The fact that
the Company has registered a class of securities does not in any manner signify
that the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any other regulatory body
has endorsed or expressed an opinion on the merits of an investment in our
stock, or on the accuracy or completeness of our registration statements or our
required periodic reports.
-13-
We have never filed bankruptcy, been in receivership, or been involved in
any similar proceedings. We have not been involved in a purchase or sale of a
significant amount of assets, whether in the ordinary course of business or
otherwise. We have had no sales or revenues, other than interest earned on our
cash balances, and we currently have no products or services. Accordingly, we
have no backlog of orders, nor are we dependent on any one or few large
customers.
We are not subject to any industry-specific government regulation, nor do
we need government approval for any of our operations, except that as a
reporting company we must comply with federal and state securities laws and
regulations wherever we engage in activities that are subject to those laws and
rules (see "Regulation" on page 15). We have made no significant expenditures on
research and development during the most recent fiscal year or interim period.
We maintain an office at 2921 N. Tenaya Way, Suite 216, Las Vegas, Nevada 89128
which we share with other unaffiliated business entities.
PLAN OF OPERATION
We are considered to be a company in the development stage, having no
revenues from business operations since our inception. Moreover, we are
considered under the securities regulations to be a "blank check" company since
we have no specific business plan other than to acquire, merge with or invest in
a business opportunity or entity which we have not yet identified. We believe we
have sufficient cash to meet our needs for the next 12 months, and accordingly
have not planned to raise additional capital during that time. We hope to be
able to use our securities to pay for any acquisition(s) we may complete.
However, we are uncertain what costs we will incur in locating, investigating
and negotiating for acquisitions or business combination opportunities. Should
we decide to raise additional capital by selling equity securities, your
percentage ownership of the Company could be substantially diluted.
EMPLOYEES
At present we have no full time or part time employees. Our officers have
allocated a small portion of their working hours to various activities on behalf
of the Company, but have received no compensation other than some reimbursement
of minor out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them on our behalf. We currently
have no plans to hire employees or to institute a compensation plan for the
existing officers, although it is likely that we will put into place some sort
of executive compensation plan should we succeed in creating operating revenues
through a business combination or investment. If we institute such a plan, it
would be based on industry standards for compensation of executives in similar
businesses with similar duties and responsibilities.
We have not adopted any retirement, pension, profit sharing, stock option
or insurance programs or other similar programs for the benefit of employees.
-14-
REGULATION
Since the Company is not engaged in any particular business, other than
seeking a suitable acquistion or merger, or business opportunity of some sort,
we are not subject to any industry-specific laws, rules or regulatory scheme.
Nevertheless, as a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
we are subject to all of the rules and requirements applicable to reporting
companies (see "Risk Factors" beginning page 8). These requirements include at a
minimum the obligation to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, including an audited financial statement within ninety days of our
fiscal year-end, and unaudited financial statements within forty-five days of
the end of each interim fiscal quarter.
We are also required to file Current Reports on Form 8-K with respect to
certain developments, including such occurrences as a change of our certifying
accountants, acquiring or disposing of a significant amount of assets, or a
change of control, any or all of which are likely to occur in connection with
our completion of a merger with or acquisition of an operating company. These
reporting requirements will represent a continuing burden on the Company's cash
and management resources whether or not we succeed in our business plan.
Although at present we have no plans to do so, it is possible that we will
invest our cash in passive investments in securities. If we do so, we may be
required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act
of 1940. Registering will likely incur a significant drain on the Company's
limited resources, and may require us to borrow funds or sell more securities to
defray the costs of registration. If we sell additional equity securities, or
securities exercisable or convertible into equity stock, your proportional
ownership in the Company will be diluted. Before we make passive investments in
securities, our management will consider carefully the advantages and
disadvantages of becoming an investment company.
COMPETITION
The market in mergers and acquisitions involves many very large companies
and billions of dollars in cash and securities. We will likely remain an
insignificant participant among the firms which engage in the acquisition of
business opportunities. There are many established venture capital and financial
concerns which have significantly greater financial and personnel resources and
technical expertise than us. We cannot predict in advance who will be specific
competitors for particular acquisitions or investments that we may choose to
pursue. However, in view of our limited financial resources, and limited
management availability and expertise, we will likely remain at a significant
disadvantage compared to our competitors. It is likely that the investment
opportunities available to us will be those that are of little enough
significance as to escape the attention or interest of our larger competitors.
-15-
PROPERTY
The Company does not own any real or personal property. We currently
maintain a mailing and business address at the offices of our statutory resident
agent, for which we pay a small annual fee. That address is:
Westnet Communication Group, Inc.
2921 N. Tenaya Way, Suite 216
Las Vegas, Nevada 89128
We believe these facilities will be adequate for the needs of the Company
until such time as we commence regular business operations or enter into a
business combination transaction with an operating company.

much time as she deems warranted and as is practical to the development of the
business, up to an estimated maximum of about 20 hours per week.
-16-
Ms. Kristy B. Warren, age 43, serves as Treasurer/CFO and a Director for
the Company. Ms. Warren retired from a supervisory position for Centel Telephone
in 1997, and has served five years as a Director for Investment Management
Associates, a financial consulting firm. For the foreseeable future, Ms. Warren
will devote as much time as she deems warranted and as is practical to the
development of the business, up to an estimated maximum of about 25 hours per
week.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
To date, we have not paid any money to any officer or director, except
reimbursement for direct out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them on behalf of
the Company. We currently have no plans to implement executive or director
compensation, and none of the executives or directors is accruing any
compensation that would have to be paid in the future. Our directors and
executive officers currently devote less than ten percent of working hours to
the affairs of the Company.
On October 14, 1999, we issued 150,000 restricted pre-split shares (now
300,000 shares) to the executive officers of the Company in exchange for their
services in the planning and organization of the Company. Those shares are
included in the shares being offered by this prospectus.
We have not entered into any employment contracts, and we do not pay
consulting fees to officers or directors. We have not paid cash or other
advances to any officer or director, nor do we have plans to do so in the
foreseeable future. We have no retirement, pension, profit sharing or stock
option plans or insurance or medical payment plans covering any officer or
director, nor do have any intention to implement such plans in the foreseeable
future.
POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
If and when we complete a merger or acquisition with an unaffiliated
business entity, it is possible that the entity may desire to employ or retain
one or a number of members of our present management for the purposes of
providing services to the surviving entity. The Company has adopted a policy
whereby the offer of any post-transaction compensation to members of management
will not be a consideration in the Company's decision to undertake any proposed
transaction.
-17-
The management has agreed to disclose to the Company's Board of Directors
any discussions concerning possible compensation to be paid to them by any
entity which proposes to undertake a transaction with us. It is possible that
persons associated with management may refer a prospective merger or acquisition
candidate to us. In the event the Company consummates a transaction with any
entity referred by associates of management, it is possible that such an
associate will be compensated for their referral in the form of a finder's fee.
We anticipate that this fee, if one is paid, will be in the form of either
restricted common stock or warrants issued by the Company as part of the terms
of the proposed transaction, or will be in the form of cash consideration. As of
the date of this prospectus, it is not possible for us to determine the amount
of such a finder's fee, but we expect it to be comparable to consideration
normally paid in similar transactions, or fair and reasonable under the
circumstances. Any new restricted stock we may issue as compensation will dilute
the percentage ownership of existing shareholders. Any warrants we may issue
that are subsequently exercised will dilute the percentage ownership of existing
shareholders.
INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
To the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada and by
the By-laws of the Company, we will indemnify any person who is made a party, or
threatened to be made a party, to an action or proceeding, whether criminal,
civil, administrative or investigative, because of his or her having been a
director or officer of the Company, or having served any other enterprise as
director, officer or employee at the request of the Company. The Board of
Directors, in its discretion, has the power on behalf of the Company to
indemnify any person, other than a director or officer, made a party to any
action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he/she is or was an
employee of the Company.
Indemnification of officers or persons controlling the company for
liabilities arising under the securities act of 1933 is held to be against
public policy by the securities and exchange commission and is therefore
unenforceable.
-18-
MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
-------------------------------------------------------
Our shares have never traded, and there exists no public trading market for
our shares. As of the date of this prospectus, we have seven (7) shareholders,
including officers, directors and control persons.
We intend to apply to have our Common Stock traded on the over-the-counter
market and listed on the OTC Bulletin Board. There is no assurance that the
Company will obtain OTC Bulletin Board listing, that a trading market will ever
develop or, if a market does develop, that it will continue. Even if a market
does develop and continue, the trading volume in the Company's securities may be
inadequate to provide meaningful liquidity or reliable pricing.
The securities to which this registration statement applies are being
offered by selling security holders. We are not offering any new shares for
sale. There are no outstanding options, rights, warrants to purchase, or
securities convertible into, our common equity.
We have never paid a dividend, nor do we intend to do so in the foreseeable
future. There are no restrictions on the power of the Board of Directors to
declare and pay dividends.

There have been no related party transactions, or any other transactions or
relationships required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-B.

cumulative voting for directors is denied. Once subscribed and paid, the shares
are fully paid and non-assessable by us. The shares have rights to participate
in dividends and other distributions if, as, and when declared by the Board of

SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS AND PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
-------------------------------------------------
METHOD OF DISTRIBUTION
This prospectus concerns the sale by the selling security holders of an
aggregate of 3,500,000 shares of common stock. The selling security holders are
offering the shares at a price of $0.04 per share. The selling shareholders are
offering the shares directly through their own selling efforts, with the aid of
underwriters, brokers or sales agents. Should the selling shareholders decide to
employ selling agents or underwriters, they -- and not the company -- will bear
the costs of any associated commissions, fees, or underwriting discounts. We
will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling
security holders.
-22-
Under federal securities laws, we are deemed to be a "blank check" company,
because we are a development stage company with no specific business plan or
purpose, and our securities are not traded on a securities exchange. Rule 419 of
Regulation C under the Securities Act of 1933 imposes a special escrow
requirement on sales of stock in blank check companies. Under the rule, all
proceeds from the sales of the securities offered by this prospectus will be
deposited into an escrow or special account and held there until certain
conditions are met. See "Escrow Account" following.
ESCROW ACCOUNT
Rule 419 requires that securities sold by a blank check issuer, and the
proceeds of those sales, be deposited into an escrow account at an insured
depository institution, or into a segregated account at a registered securities
Broker-Dealer. If you purchase shares of stock offered through this prospectus,
the selling shareholder(s) will deposit the shares and your payment into an
escrow account established for that purpose at Southwest Escrow, Inc. of Las
Vegas, Nevada. When we acquire an operating business, or complete a merger or
other business combination with an operating entity, the funds will be released
to the Selling Shareholders, and the securities will be released to you.
Once we have secured an agreement to acquire or combine with an operating
company, we will file an amendment to our registration statement and send you an
amended prospectus with information about the new business, including financial
statements. If, after reviewing the amended prospectus, you still wish to
purchase the shares, you will be asked to affirm your intention in writing. If
you do not affirm your purchase in writing within 45 days of the effective date
of our amended registration statement, your funds will be promptly returned to
you together with any interest or dividends earned on them. If a sufficient
number of purchasers affirm their purchases, the acquisition or merger will be
completed, and the funds will be released to the selling shareholders and the
securities will be released to you.
If we have not consummated an acquisition or business combination within 18
months after the effective date of our initial registration statement, your
funds will be returned to you together with any interest or dividends earned on
them. If the selling shareholders elect to withdraw their registration statement
prior to the consummation of a business combination or the passing of 18 months,
your funds will be returned to you with interest or dividends earned, if any.
The Escrow Agreement between Southwest Escrow Co. and the Selling
Shareholders is attached as Exhibit 99 to our Registration Statement filed on
the E.D.G.A.R. reporting system. If you wish to review the Escrow Agreement, and
are unable or do not wish to access E.D.G.A.R., you may contact the selling
shareholders in care of Westnet Communication Group, Inc., 2921 N.Tenaya Way,
Suite 216, Las Vegas, Nevada, 89128, (702) 947-4877 and a copy will be made
available to you.
-23-
SALES THROUGH REGISTERED BROKER-DEALERS
We expect that the selling security holders will offer the shares in direct
sales to private persons. In that event, the transactions will be effected as
described above under "Escrow Account."
It is possible that the selling security holders may offer the shares to or
through registered broker-dealers who may be paid standard commissions or
discounts by the selling security holders. In that event, the funds and
securities will be deposited into a segregated account at the Broker-Dealer, to
be held and released on the same terms and conditions as described under "Escrow
Account" above, except that the amount of any brokerage commission or selling
expenses may be deducted from your funds as soon as they are deposited.
As of the date of this Prospectus, we believe that no selling security
holders have any arrangements or agreements with any underwriters or
broker-dealers to sell the shares. Should any selling security holder make such
an agreement or arrangement, any sales under the agreement must be transacted
either through the Escrow Agreement with Southwest Escrow Co. or through a
segregated brokerage account. Additionally, agents, brokers or dealers may
acquire shares or interests in shares and may, from time to time, make
distributions of the shares or interests in that capacity. These distributions
will be subject to the escrow requirements of Rule 419 until we have completed
an acquisition or merger.
SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS
The following table shows the names of the selling security holders, the
number of shares of common stock owned by the selling security holders before
this offering, the number of shares of common stock being registered, and the
number and percentage of shares of common stock owned after this offering. None
of the selling security holders has held any position or office, or had any
marital relationship with our officers or directors in the past three years
except as noted below.

The table assumes all of the shares registered are sold. The percents do
not total 100% due to rounding.

Las Vegas, NV
I have reviewed the accompanying balance sheets of Westnet Communication Group,
Inc. as of Deember 31, 1999 and June 30, 2000, and the related statements of
income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1999
and the six months ended June 30, 2000, in accordance with Statements of
Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants. All information included in these financial
statements is the represntation of the management of Wstnet Communication Group,

A review consists principally of inquiries of company personnel and analytical
procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an
audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinon regarding the financial statements taken as
a whole. Accordingly, I do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, I am not aware of any material modifications that should be
made to the accompanying financial statements in order fo them to be in
conformity with generally accepted acccounting principles.

Independent Auditors' Report
Board of Directors and Stockholders
Westnet Communication Group, Inc.
Las Vegas, NV
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Westnet Communication Group,
Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 1999 and the related statements of
operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the period from inception

responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we 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

assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the above mentioned financial statements fairly present, in all
material respects, the financial position of Westnet Communication Group, Inc.

PART II. INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROPSECTUS
================================================
ITEM 24. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
To the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada and the
By-laws of the Company, the Company will indemnify any person who is made a
party, or threatened to be made a party, to an action or proceeding, whether
criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, because of his or her having
been a director or officer of the Company, or having served any other enterprise
as director, officer or employee at the request of the Company. The Board of

ITEM 26. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES:
On October 14, 1999, the Company issued 450,000 shares of its common stock
to officers, directors and consultants, the consideration for which was various
services to the Company, and 300,000 shares to an investor, Kidakus Consulting,
Ltd., for cash. On December 1, 1999, we sold 1,000,000 shares of common stock to
two private investors for $0.05 per share. All of the shares were issued
pursuant to the exemption authority provided in Section 4(2) of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and are therefore subject to certain restrictions on
transfer until such time as a registration statement has become effective with
respect to the shares, or unless an exemption is available.

Recently, our Board of Directors voted a 2-for-1 forward split of the
stock, which has the effect of doubling the number of shares held by
each shareholder and by all shareholders together.

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement.
(i) To include any Prospectus required by Section l0(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of l933;
(ii) To reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the 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 the Registration Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or
any material change to such information in the Registration Statement,
including (but not limited to) any addition or deletion of a managing
underwriter.
-39-
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of l933, each such 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 that 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.
(4) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of l933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the Registrant, 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 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 of 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.
(5) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each
post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new
registration statement for the securities offered in the registration
statement, and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial
bona fide offering of those securities.
-40-
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, the registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on
its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
