Prospectus Summary
This Summary Is Qualified In Its Entirety By The More Detailed Information
Appearing Elsewhere In This Prospectus
The Company
We are a corporation that was organized under the laws of the State of Delaware
(the "Company" or "Magnitude")on April 19, 1988 under the name Fortunistics Inc.
On March 4, 1993, we changed our name to Whitestone Industries, Inc. On July
14,1997,the Company changed its name to Proformix Systems, Inc., and on November
18, 1998, the Company changed its name to Magnitude Information Systems, Inc.
The Company's primary product is an integrated suite of proprietary software
modules marketed under the name "ErgoManagerTM" which are designed to help
individual computer users and businesses increase productivity and reduce the
risk of potentially preventable repetitive stress injury (RSI). These software
modules can be applied individually or together in a comprehensive ergonomic and
early intervention program that seeks to modify a user's behavior by monitoring
computer usage patterns over time and warning the user when to break a dangerous
trend in repetitive usage of an input device, such as a keyboard or mouse. The
product was developed to train people working on computers, monitor computer-use
related activities and evaluate a user's risk exposure and propensity towards
injury or loss of effectiveness in connection with his/her day-to-day work.
Moreover, the software enables a company to not only address the issue of health
risks involving employees and to minimize resulting potential liabilities, but
delivers a powerful tool to increase overall productivity.
Background
On June 24, 1997, the Company entered into an acquisition agreement whereby it
acquired substantially all of the outstanding stock of Proformix, Inc., a
Delaware corporation and manufacturer of ergonomic keyboarding systems.
Proformix, Inc. in November 1998 changed its name to Magnitude, Inc. and is
hereafter referred to as Magnitude, Inc. The business combination took the form
of a reverse acquisition. The Company and Magnitude, Inc. remain as two separate
legal entities whereby Magnitude, Inc. operates as a subsidiary of Magnitude
Information Systems, Inc.. The operations of the newly combined entity are
currently comprised solely of the operations of Magnitude, Inc.
On February 2, 1998, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
with Rolina Corporation, a privately held New Jersey software developing firm,
and on April 30, 1998, into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Vanity Software
Publishing Co., a Canadian developer of specialized software, whereby the
Company, in return for payments in form of cash and equity, acquired the rights
to certain software products and related assets, with such software products
subsequently forming the basis for the further development during the year of
the Company's proprietary ErgoManagerTM software product.
The Offering
Securities Offered 107,411,728 shares of common stock, $.0001 par value,
including 39,384,599 shares of common stock issuable
upon the exercise of Warrants; 7,074,866 shares of
common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock
options, and 998,900 shares of common stock issuable
upon conversion of a convertible note. See "Selling
Shareholders" at page 12.
Selling Shareholders The selling shareholders are identified in this
prospectus at page 16 together with the maximum
amount of our common shares that each may sell either
outright or upon conversion or exercise of rights
under their respective preferred stock, warrants,
stock options and the convertible note or subsequent
to consummation of the subscription agreement. See
"Selling Shareholders" at page 12.
Plan of Distribution Up to 107,411,728 shares of common stock may be
offered and sold by the selling shareholders through
agents or brokers, acting as principal, agent in
transactions, which may involve block transactions,
on the Electronic Bulletin Board, over-the-counter
market or on other exchanges on which the shares are
then listed, pursuant to the rules of the applicable
exchanges or in the over- the-counter market, or
otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of
sale, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices;
through brokers or agents in private sales at
negotiated prices; or by any other legally available
means.
Offering Price At prevailing market prices on the Electronic
Bulletin Board or on other exchanges on which the
shares are then listed or at negotiated prices.
Use of Proceeds We will not obtain any funds from the sale of the
common stock sold by the selling shareholders. We
will receive up to $7,942,556 in proceeds from the
exercise of the warrants and stock options currently
outstanding and included in this prospectus. However,
due to current market conditions as well as the fact
that the exercise prices of most of these warrants
and options have been higher than the current market
price of our stock, it is unlikely that we will
realize the receipt of any proceeds from the exercise
of these warrants and options. If the market price
for our common stock increases to permit the exercise
of these warrants and options, we intend to use any
such cash proceeds received for general corporate
purposes, which may include repaying indebtedness,
making additions to our working capital, funding
future acquisitions or for further developing our
products and hiring additional personnel.
Securities Outstanding We are authorized to issue up to an aggregate
200,000,000 shares of common stock and 3,000,000
shares of preferred stock of which 139,937,612 common
shares and 193,191 preferred shares were issued and
outstanding at May 31, 2005. Two developments may
increase our outstanding number of common shares:
First, if the selling shareholders exercise all of
their rights to convert and/or exercise all of their
warrants and stock options and convert the
convertible note, an additional 49,262,191 common
shares, representing part of the shares being
registered, will be outstanding. Second, we have in
reserve an additional 2,806,809 authorized preferred
shares that we may issue in one or more series with
such rights, preferences and privileges as may be
determined by our Board of Directors.
Risk Factors An investment in our common shares is highly
speculative and any purchasers will suffer
substantial dilution per common share compared to the
purchase price. We have suffered losses for the
fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 of
$2,483,602 and $2,337,881, respectively, And of
$591,019 for the first quarter of 2005. We will need
additional funding. No person should invest in our
common shares who cannot afford to risk the loss of
his or her entire investment. See "Risk Factors" at
page 6.
RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below when evaluating your
ownership of the Magnitude common stock. The risks and uncertainties described
below are not the only ones Magnitude faces. Additional risks and uncertainties
we are presently not aware of or that we currently consider immaterial may also
impair Magnitude's business operations.
If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition
or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In such case,
the trading price of our common stock could decline significantly.
We Continue to Suffer Financial Losses in our Business.
We have a history of losses and if we do not achieve profitability we may not be
able to continue our business in the future. We have incurred substantial
operating losses since our inception, which has resulted in an accumulated
deficit of $27,992,998 as of December 31, 2004 of which approximately $7 million
are attributable to its discontinued hardware product line. For the fiscal years
ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, we incurred losses of $2,483,602 and $
2,337,881, respectively., and losses of $591,019 for the three months ended
March 31, 2005. We have financed our operations primarily through the sales of
equity and debt securities. Our expense levels are high and our revenues are
difficult to predict. We anticipate incurring additional losses until we
increase our client base and revenues. We may never achieve or sustain
significant revenues or profitability. If we are unable to achieve increased
revenues, we will continue to have losses and may not be able to continue our
operations.
Our Auditors Have Rendered An Opinion Raising Doubts as to Whether We Can
Continue Operations.
Our auditors have expressed their opinion that our financial condition as shown
in our financial statements for our fiscal year that ended on December 31, 2004,
raises substantial doubts whether or not we will be able to continue in business
as an operating company. See "Financial Statements".
We Need Additional Financing.
We could be required to cut back or stop operations if we are unable to raise or
obtain needed funding. Our ability to continue operations will depend on our
positive cash flow, if any, from future operations or our ability to raise
additional funds through equity or debt financing. At present, we have not
received firm commitments for private financings in amounts sufficient to cover
the working capital necessary to continue to finance our operations and execute
our business plan. Although we anticipate that future revenues and new capital
from private and institutional investors with whom we are currently in
negotiations will be sufficient to fund our current operations and capital
requirements for the current fiscal year, we cannot give you any assurance that
these negotiations will result in definite agreements that will provide such
needed capital. We could be required to cut back or stop operations if we are
unable to raise or obtain funds when needed.
We Do Not Have A Proven Software Sales Record
We do not have a proven software sales record and have made only limited sales
of our software products. Our total revenues for software sales and licenses and
support services for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 were $121,886
and $ 162,335, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, we had
revenues of only $19,264. As a result of our lack of proven sales success and
lack of evidence that the business or consumer marketplaces have accepted our
software products, you and other investors may not have enough or sufficient
financial and operational information about us that is necessary in order to
properly evaluate the risks of making any investment in our stock.
We Are Not Certain That Customers Will Buy Our Products.
Our revenues depend on sales of our specialized software products and we are
uncertain whether there will be broad market acceptance of these products. Our
revenue growth for the foreseeable future is largely dependent upon increased
sales of our ErgoManagerTM suite of software products. Since the introduction of
our ErgoManagerTM software products in November, 1998 and through December 31,
2004, revenue from our software products has been approximately $2,004,000
(prior to this time, we had sales of approximately $63,000 based upon a
predecessor version of the ErgoManagerTM software}.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, we had revenues from the sales of
software product licenses and support services of $121,886. Our future financial
performance will depend upon the successful introduction and customer acceptance
of our ErgoManagerTM software products as well as the development of new and
enhanced versions of this product as well as other related software products
that may be developed in the future. Revenue from products such as ErgoManagerTM
depend on a number of factors, including the influence of market competition,
technological changes in the ergonomic workplace market, our ability to design,
develop and introduce enhancements on a timely basis and our ability to
successfully establish and maintain distribution channels. If we fail to achieve
broad market acceptance of our ErgoManagerTM products, it would have a material
adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
We Do Not Have An Established Sales Distribution Network.
We do not have an established sales distribution network through which to sell
our software products. Our inability to enter into strategic relationships with
indirect channel partners could have a material adverse effect on us. As part of
our sales and marketing efforts, we are seeking to develop strategic
relationships with indirect channel partners, such as original equipment
manufacturers and resellers. We have limited financial, personnel and other
resources to undertake extensive marketing activities ourselves. Therefore, our
software products will depend on our ability to develop and maintain strategic
marketing relationships with indirect channel partners and their ability to
market and distribute our software products. If we are unable to enter into and
maintain such arrangements or if such arrangements do not result in the
successful commercialization of our software products, then this could have a
material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition.
You Could Lose Your Entire Investment.
Our common stock offered in this prospectus is highly speculative, involves a
high degree of risk and should not be purchased by any person who cannot afford
the loss of his entire investment. A purchase of our common stock in this
offering would be unsuitable for a person who cannot afford to sustain such a
loss.
If We Were To Lose The Services of Our President Our Business Would Suffer
We are substantially dependent upon the continued services of Steven D. Rudnik,
our President and Chief Executive Officer. The loss of the services of Mr.
Rudnik through incapacity or otherwise would have a material adverse effect upon
our business and prospects. To the extent that his services become unavailable,
we will be required to retain other qualified personnel, and there can be no
assurance that we will be able to recruit and hire qualified persons upon
acceptable terms. We do, however, maintain key person life insurance on the life
of Mr.
Rudnik in the amount of $1 Million. In addition to Mr. Rudnik, if we were to
lose the services of one or more of our key employees, such as Joerg Klaube, our
Chief Financial Officer, our business, operating results, financial condition or
business prospects could be materially adversely affected. We have several
programs in place to retain key personnel, including granting of stock options
that vest annually over four or five years. All of these outstanding options are
at exercise prices above the current market price of our common stock.
Penny Stock Regulations
The Securities Enforcement Penny Stock Act of 1990 requires specific disclosure
to be made available in connection with trades in the stock of companies defined
as "penny stocks". The Commission has adopted regulations that generally define
a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than
$5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Such exceptions include any
equity security listed on NASDAQ and any equity security issued by an issuer
that has (I) net tangible assets of at least $2,000,000, if such issuer has been
in continuous operation for three years; (ii) net tangible assets of at least
$5,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three
years; or (iii) average annual revenue of at least $6,000,000, if such issuer
has been in continuous operation for less than three years. Unless an exception
is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction
involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock
market and the risk associated therewith as well as the written consent of the
purchaser of such security prior to engaging in a penny stock transaction. The
regulations on penny stocks may limit the ability of the purchasers of our
securities to sell their securities in the secondary marketplace. Our common
stock is currently considered a penny stock.
There is Intense Competition in the Industry
The market for ergonomic application software is expected to become intensely
competitive. Although we are not aware of any ergonomic software that competes
with our ErgoManagerTM software products currently, competitors will certainly
enter this marketplace. Although we believe our success will be due in part to
our early entry into the computer workplace market, we expect other software
product manufacturers to develop and sell similar products.
Intense competition could lead to increased price competition in the market,
forcing us to reduce prices. As a result, our gross margins may decline and we
may lose our first-to-market advantage which, in turn, could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, we may be unable to compete successfully with any new competitors
which are better financed, have larger technical staffs and operational
resources. There can be no assurances, therefore, that our software products
will be able to successfully compete in the marketplace.
We have Limited Protection of Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights and
May Potentially Infringe Third Party Intellectual Property Rights
We consider certain aspects of our software and documentation to be proprietary,
and rely on a combination of contract, patent, copyright, trademark and trade
secret laws and other measures to protect this information. Outstanding
applications may not result in issued patents and, even if issued, the patents
may not provide any meaningful competitive advantage. Existing copyright laws
afford only limited protection. We believe that the rapid pace of technological
change in the computer software industry has made patent, trade secret and
copyright protection less significant than factors such as:
o knowledge, ability and experience of our employees;
o frequent software product enhancements; and
o timeliness and quality of support services.
Patent, trade secret and copyright protections may be inadequate, and our
competitors may independently develop ergonomic software products that are
substantially equivalent or superior to our software products. We do not believe
that our software products, our trademarks or other proprietary rights infringe
on the property rights of any third parties. However, third parties may assert
infringement claims against us and our products. These assertions could require
us to enter into royalty arrangements or could result in costly litigation.
Magnitude May Experience Product Liability Claims
Although our license agreements contain provisions designed to limit our
exposure to potential product liability claims, these provisions could be
invalidated by unfavorable judicial decisions or by federal, state or local laws
or ordinances. Although we have not experienced any product liability claims to
date, use of our software in mission critical applications may create a risk
that a third party may pursue a claim against us. Although we carry product
liability insurance, if a product liability claim against us was successful, the
resulting damages or injunctive relief could have a material adverse affect on
our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our Stock Price is Volatile and There is a Risk of Litigation
The trading price of our common stock has in the past and may in the future be
subject to wide fluctuations. For example, during the first quarter of fiscal
year 2005, the average high sales price for our common stock traded in the
public market was $0.131 per share while the average low sales price during the
same period was $0.125per share. Similarly, $0.134 was the average high and
$0.126 the average low trading prices of our stock during the first quarter of
2004
Further, the stock market has experienced in recent months and may continue in
the future to experience extreme price and volume fluctuations that particularly
affect the market prices of equity securities of high technology companies that
often are not related to or are disproportionate to the operating performance of
such companies. These broad market fluctuations, as well as general economic,
political and market conditions have, and may continue to have, a material
adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock. Fluctuations in the
price of our common stock may expose us to the risk of securities class action
lawsuits. We cannot assure you that there will not be lawsuits in the future or
that future lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Rapid Technological Change; Dependence on New Products
The market for software is characterized by rapid technological advances,
changes in customer requirements and frequent new product introductions and
enhancements. The Company must respond rapidly to developments related to
operating systems and applicable programming languages. Such developments will
require the Company to continue to make substantial product development
investments. Any failure by the Company to anticipate or respond adequately to
technological developments and customer requirements, or any significant delays
in product development or introduction, could result in a loss of
competitiveness or revenue.
The Company's future success will depend on its ability to continue to enhance
its current product line and to continue to develop and introduce new products
that keep pace with competitive product introductions and technological
developments, satisfy diverse and evolving customer requirements and otherwise
achieve market acceptance. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in continuing to develop and market on a timely and cost-effective
basis fully functional product enhancements or new products that respond to
technological advances by others, or that its enhanced and new products will
achieve market acceptance. In addition, the Company has in the past experienced
delays in the development, introduction and marketing of new or enhanced
products, and there can be no assurance that the Company will not experience
similar delays in the future. Any failure by the Company to anticipate or
respond adequately to changes in technology and customer preferences, or any
significant delays in product development or introduction, would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations. See "Patents and New Products" and "Research and Development" below.
Any Further Stock Issuances Could Depress Our Share Trading Price
Of the 107,411,728 common shares offered in this prospectus, 59,953,363 common
shares have already been issued to the selling shareholders. If the selling
shareholders were to fully exercise their rights under their warrants, stock
options and convertible note, converting them into the remaining 49,262,191
common shares offered in this prospectus and then sell them, the market price of
our common stock could be materially adversely affected. As of May 31, 2005, the
substantial majority of the warrants had exercise prices above the current
market price of our common stock.
Market Overhang
As of May 31, 2005, we had 139,937,612 common shares outstanding. As of May 31,
2005, we had 12,635,308 outstanding stock options, 40,358,599 outstanding common
stock purchase warrants, 193,190 preferred shares convertible into 1,757,198
common shares and a convertible promissory note convertible into 998,900 common
shares. If all the outstanding stock options, common stock purchase warrants,
convertible preferred shares and the convertible note were exercised and/or
converted by their holders an additional 55,750,005 common shares would be
outstanding; this would represent an approximate 40% increase in our outstanding
common shares. The vast majority of these outstanding options and warrants are
exercisable at prices currently above the public trading prices of our common
stock. However, in the event that even a portion of these outstanding options
and warrants were to be exercised, or portions of the preferred shares and/or
the convertible promissory note converted, the resulting dilution could depress
the public trading price of our common shares. In addition, we are registering
107,411,728 shares for sale by the Selling Shareholders in this prospectus; if a
significant portion of these shares were sold by the Selling Shareholders in
this prospectus in the public marketplace, such sales could also have a severe
and adverse material affect on the public trading price of our common shares.
Any increase in the amount of saleable shares increases significantly the
possibility of large amounts of our shares offered for sale and, if sold,
dramatically increases the selling price pressure for our shares which could
result in a further depressed sales and market price for our stock.
The Market Price At Which The Selling Shareholders Resell Their Stock Offered In
This Prospectus May Bear No Relationship To Our Value
The prices at which Selling Shareholders resell our common shares will be
determined by the then prevailing market prices of our common shares offered and
sold on the Electronic Bulletin Board, over-the-counter market or on any other
then applicable exchange where our Common Shares are traded, or may be at
negotiated prices which, in all likelihood, will bare no relationship to our
assets, book value, net worth or other economic or recognized measure of value.
All of the exercise and conversion prices and rates of the Company's outstanding
warrants, stock options, convertible preferred stock, convertible promissory
notes and convertible note were arbitrarily determined by us and, as well, bare
no relationship to our assets, book value, net worth, or any other economic or
recognized measure of value. These exercise prices or conversion rates should
not be regarded as any indication of current or future market price for our
common shares.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
When used in this Prospectus, the words or phrases "will likely result," "are
expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated," "estimate," "projected,"
"intends to" or similar expressions are intended to identify "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties,
including but not limited to economic conditions, changes in laws or
regulations, the Company's history of operating losses, demand for its software
products and services, newly developed technologies and software, regulatory

of the Company to obtain additional financing. Such factors, which are discussed
in "Risk Factors," "Business" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and the notes to consolidated
financial statements, could affect the Company's financial performance and could
cause the Company's actual results for future periods to differ materially from

copy of any and all of the information that has been or may be incorporated by
reference in this prospectus. Requests for such copies should be directed to
Magnitude Information Systems, Inc., 401 State Route 24, Chester, New Jersey
07930 (telephone: 908-879-2722).
USE OF PROCEEDS
The selling shareholders will receive all of the net proceeds from the resale of
any of the Company's common shares offered in this prospectus. We will not
receive any of the proceeds from any sale of the shares by the selling
shareholders. We will receive up to $7,942,556 in proceeds from the cash
exercise of the warrants and options currently outstanding and included in this
prospectus, if exercised, and we intend to use any such cash proceeds received
for general corporate purposes, which may include repaying indebtedness, making
additions to our working capital, funding future acquisitions or for further
developing our products and hiring additional personnel. However, due to current
market conditions and the fact that the exercise prices for most of these
warrants and options are higher than the current market price for our common
stock, it is unlikely that we will receive any funds from the exercise of these
instruments.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding ownership of
Magnitude's common stock by the selling shareholders as of May 31, 2005,
including their names, and the number of shares of common stock owned by them
and offered pursuant to this prospectus. The selling shareholders listed in the

rights granted to the selling shareholders, not because they had expressed an
intent to immediately sell their shares.

139,937,612 common shares issued and outstanding of which approximately
51,000,000 are freely tradable.
Upon the effectiveness of this registration statement, (a) an additional
59,953,363 common shares already issued and (b) 49,262,191 common shares
underlying stock options, warrants and a convertible note which, if exercised,
will result in those shares also being freely tradable.
In addition to our registration statement referenced above, the 28,984,249
remaining shares of common stock presently outstanding that are restricted
and/or affiliate securities and not included in this prospectus as well as
1,757.,198 common shares underlying the issued and outstanding convertible
preferred stock, 974,000 common shares underlying outstanding warrants, and
5,560,442 common shares underlying outstanding stock options, which, if
converted or exercised, as the case may be, may not presently, but may in the
future be sold into any public market that may exist for the common stock
pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"). Sales of substantial amounts of this common
stock in the public market could adversely affect the market price of the common
stock.
In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or group of persons
whose shares are aggregated), including affiliates of the Company, can sell
within any nine month period, an amount of restricted securities that does not
exceed the greater of 1% of the total number of outstanding shares of the same
class, or the reported average weekly trading volume during the four calendar
weeks preceding the sale; provided at least one year has elapsed since the
restricted securities being sold were acquired from the Company or any affiliate
of the Company, and provided further that certain other conditions are also
satisfied. If at least two years have elapsed since the restricted securities
were acquired from the Company or an affiliate of the Company, a person who has
not been an affiliate of the Company for at least three months can sell
restricted shares under Rule 144 without regard to any limitations on the
amount. Future sales by current shareholders could depress the market price of
the Common Stock in the public market.

BUSINESS
Background
On June 24, 1997, the Company entered into an acquisition agreement whereby it
acquired substantially all of the outstanding stock of Proformix, Inc., a
Delaware corporation and manufacturer of ergonomic keyboarding systems.
Proformix, Inc. in November 1998 changed its name to Magnitude, Inc. and is
hereafter referred to as Magnitude, Inc. The business combination took the form
of a reverse acquisition. The Company and Magnitude, Inc. remain as two separate
legal entities whereby Magnitude, Inc. operates as a subsidiary of Magnitude
Information Systems, Inc.. The operations of the newly combined entity are
currently comprised solely of the operations of Magnitude, Inc.
On February 2, 1998, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
with Rolina Corporation, a privately held New Jersey software developing firm,
and on April 30, 1998, into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Vanity Software
Publishing Co., a Canadian developer of specialized software, whereby the
Company, in return for payments in form of cash and equity, acquired the rights
to certain software products and related assets, with such software products
subsequently forming the basis for the further development during the year of
the Company's proprietary ErgoManagerTM software product.
As of May 31, 2005, there were outstanding 139,937,612 Common Shares, 1
Cumulative Preferred Share, and 193,190 Convertible Preferred Shares.
Narrative Description of Business
Magnitude Information Systems, Inc. is a pioneer and leader in the ergonomic
productivity software market. With its Anti-Injury(TM) software as represented
by ErgoEnterprise(TM), an interactive suite of Windows(TM) software products,
Magnitude has developed and delivered the first integrated systems approach to
computer ergonomics. The Company's patented proprietary software products
provide business and government employers with a complete system for the
evaluation and management of ergonomic and productivity risk factors with
respect to the use of computers in the office environment. ErgoEnterprise(TM) is
designed to help employers minimize preventable Repetitive Stress Injuries
("RSI") and enhance productivity through:
o Real-time monitoring of keyboarding activities to ensure proper
posture and work pacing.
o Pro-active dialogue with at-risk employees, including surveys and
training in the best practices for wellness and productivity.
o Strategic profiling and the management of computer use throughout an
organization to employ best practices and to measure health, safety,
and performance results.
o Computer workstation assessment tools.
.. We have received a patent from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office
relative to certain core inventions within the ErgoEnterprise(TM) system and we
have applied for several more patents for our products.
As the utilization of computers in the office has increased significantly
in the last decade, so has the rate of health problems believed to be related to
the use of computers. Computer ergonomics focus on optimizing the design of
technology involved in the utilization of computers in the office, and also
attempts to affect the manner in which people interact with computers, so as to
minimize the associated health risks. A successful technology delivery system
positively impacts the cost of doing business by improving the comfort,
productivity, job satisfaction and safety of the computer user, while reducing
the costs of absenteeism and work related disability.
Repetitive stress injury (RSI) is a classification of diseases caused by
the excessive use of joints. It is a sub-classification of Cumulative Trauma
Disorders (CTDs). RSI accounts for a large portion of work-related illnesses,
and the incidence of RSI is expected to grow as the number of people operating
keyboards increases. The impact of RSI is measured not only in the pain and
suffering of its victims, but also in time lost from work, and medical costs.
The Company's software products are designed to help businesses deal with
potentially preventable repetitive stress injuries, by real-time monitoring of
keyboarding activities, pro-active dialog with at-risk employees, and strategic
profiling and management of computer use throughout an organization.
A study released in January 2001 by the National Academy of Sciences,
originally commissioned by Congress and produced by the National Research
Council, finds that work-related back, hand and wrist injuries affect about 1
million U.S. workers every year. The total cost of the resultant disorders is
between $45 billion and $54 billion in compensation, lost wages and lower
productivity. Increased awareness of the health risks and associated costs led
the State of California several years ago implement an ergonomic regulation
which directs qualifying employers to establish and maintain a program designed
to minimize RSI's. Such program shall include work-site evaluation, control of
the exposures that have caused RSI's, and training of employees. State agencies
and employers in California face fines of up to $25,000 per incident for
violating these regulations. The State of Washington adopted similar regulations
in 2000, and other states have indicated a willingness to follow suit. The
Company believes that the growing recognition of these trends will give rise to
a rapidly expanding market for the Company's products.
The Industry
The Company operates in only one business segment: the development,
marketing, and licensing of risk aversion and productivity enhancement software
products for the computerized workplace environment. More specifically, the
Company licenses highly sophisticated and proprietary software that provides
computer based training, work pacing and monitoring tools, as well as a computer
workstation assessment tool.
Potential customers for the Company's products are businesses of all
sizes, as well as organizations and government departments and agencies that
employ many staff in computer-related functions. The software industry in
general is comprised of a remarkable variety of providers, ranging from small
boutique-type designers to large international corporations. The industry is
characterized by great dynamics, patterns of rapid growth and well-known success
stories, but also by a high degree of volatility and risk.
The Company operates primarily in the United States of America, however,
has introduced French and Portuguese language versions of its software products
for the European and Brazilian markets, and will shortly introduce other
language versions. The Company has not yet derived any material revenues from
the licensing or sale of its software products in foreign markets.
Products, Trademarks
The Company's current primary product is a suite of nine proprietary
software modules marketed under the name ErgoEnterprise(TM) which are designed
to help individual computer users and businesses deal with potentially
preventable repetitive stress injury (RSI). The nine software modules can be
applied individually or together in a comprehensive ergonomic and early
intervention program that seeks to modify a user's behavior by monitoring
computer usage patterns over time and warning the user when to break a dangerous
trend in repetitive usage of an input device, such as a keyboard or mouse. The
product was developed to train people working on computers, monitor computer-use
related activities and evaluate a user's risk exposure and propensity towards
injury or loss of effectiveness in connection with his/her day-to-day work.
Moreover, the package enables a company to not only address the issue of health
risks involving employees and to minimize resulting potential liabilities, but
delivers a powerful tool to increase overall productivity.
The system is highly customizable for management, staff and employees. All
components operate on any PC or workstation running the Microsoft Windows
operating system. ErgoEnterprise(TM) is the first suite of software solutions
that combines ergonomic remediation and productivity enhancement tools. Its nine
component modules are described as follows:
ErgoTutor(TM) delivers a complete office ergonomics training course directly to
employees at their desktop, and provides employees with clear initial awareness
training as well as follow-up training for reinforcement of previously learned
materials.
ErgoSURE(TM) is a postural assessment tool designed to allow the evaluation of
employee posture while working at computers. It is an electronic version of the
internationally accepted RULA (Rapid Upper Limb Assessment) system. This system,
developed at the University of Nottingham's Institute for Occupational
Ergonomics in the U.K., allows users to survey a broad range of computer-related
work activities involving repetitive motions, allowing the user to detect - and
remedy - hazardous situations and conditions.
ErgoSurveyor(TM) is used to gather usage information from employee populations.
Customized, professional quality surveys are designed to corporate
specifications and gather important information that may be used to plan
ergonomic and corporate business strategies. Responses to risk assessment
surveys are gathered and compiled into a database that may be used to create
comprehensive, customized reports.
UserNotes(TM) is an early reporting and "Rapid Response" Intervention tool
designed to give employees a way to communicate discomfort to designated staff,
allowing issues to be addressed earlier - at a lower cost and a higher
likelihood of success. UserNotes is consistently available to everyone in the
organization at the workstation or notebook with or without Internet access.
ErgoSentry(R) measures rest against work in real time, tracking keyboard and
mouse activity independently. ErgoSentry's patented algorithms, designed for
prevention and control of RSI risk factors, monitor computer usage patterns over
time and alert the user when to take micro-breaks, avoiding high-risk trends in
keyboard or mouse usage through a unique and patented empowering feedback
mechanism. Users are alerted to take these micro-breaks only when risk exposure
exceeds configured limits.
EMSAnalyzer(TM) is designed to measure, analyze and manage all aspects of
day-to-day computer use. Raw actual data of normal, everyday use are gathered
through ErgoSentry(R) and accumulated for standard and customized reports that
track, analyze and qualify how employees are using their computer stations.
Guardian(TM) captures metrics on the frequency of keystroking and mousing during
each minute throughout the day, and optionally tracks which applications and
files users access.
ErgoQuiz(TM) is an electronic testing system used to assess ergonomic awareness
and educate employees.
ErgoMap(TM) offers employees state of the art ergonomic training at the desktop.
In addition to the trademarks shown above which are owned by the Company,
Magnitude has applied for other product designators to be afforded trademark
protection, and has filed US Patent Application for certain design principles
underlying several of its proprietary software products, including a patent
application for its newest product, a new class of usage tracking and data
collection software that is directed towards e-commerce and a wide range of
other Internet related applications. There can be no assurance, however, that
such patents will be granted or, if granted, that a third party will not design
products which perform the same or similar functions as the Company's products,
using technology other than that covered by the Company's patents.
Patents and New Products
ErgoSentry - Patent Granted:
In May 2000 the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office awarded the Company a
patent which covers various innovations including a proven approach that helps
computer users manage their activity to improve productivity and reduce the risk
of repetitive motion injuries.
ErgoPal Introduced, Patent Pending:
New patent-pending ErgoPal software is a work pacing tool that helps users
mitigate health risks and improve their productivity by gently alerting them to
increases in stress and fatigue which are occurring before they realize it.
Studies Involving ErgoEnterprise(TM)
Magnitude has conducted productivity studies using ErgoEnterprise(TM) at
various client and prospect sites.
In July 1999, Cornell University released a study entitled "Effects of
Ergonomic Management Software on Employee Performance," a field experimental
test of the effects of ErgoEnterprise on computer work activity.(1) Professor
Alan Hedge tested the effects of using Magnitude's ergonomic work pacing
software to monitor keyboard and mouse activity, and to provide computer users
with information on appropriate, discretionary rest breaks. The software also
provided information on stretching exercises, appropriate postures, and
appropriate workstation adjustments. The Wall Street office of a nationwide
insurance brokerage firm was chosen as the test site for this study.
Data gathered in the study covered 6,195 hours of computer usage,
equivalent to 800 person/days of computer use. Participants used computers an
average of 5.9 hours per day, and typed over 3,949,000 keystrokes during the
course of the study. Employees at the site used their computers for much of the
workday. The study evaluated the performance of 21 individuals including
executives, administrators, customer service specialists, underwriters, and
accountants.
Alerting users to take more short rest and break periods improved work
accuracy, and did not impair overall keystroke and mouse usage. These study
results agree with previous research. In addition, the study concluded that from
an economic standpoint, the performance benefits that may accrue from using
ErgoEnterprise indicate a return on investment of approximately 3 months.
One client, the California State Compensation Insurance Fund, conducted
a survey using ErgoEnterprise in a pilot program from January 2000 - June 2000.
The significant results of the study included:
o A 50% reduction rate in the total number of Musculoskeletal Disorder
(MSD) Claims.
o A reduction by between 20% and 80% of OSHA reported injuries.
o The actual workers' compensation savings in the pilot program was
$120,000.
o State Fund's projected annual workers' compensation cost savings was
approximately $780,000.
o There was a total participation of employees in Pilot Program
o Employees postponed micro-breaks a maximum of nine minutes.
o There was 100% employee satisfaction while using ErgoEnterprise.
o Some employees used program to "warm up" prior to their beginning
work
In February 2001, a study by Cornell/Lockheed Martin titled Ergonomic
Management Software and Work Performance presented an ROI analysis to quantify
the potential economic impact of a 59% improvement in keystroke accuracy for the
test group. Based on a combination of factors including estimated hourly
employee costs which include some of the following: wages, benefits, occupied
internal floor space, pre-study hourly error costs, hourly savings per person,
and the annual "per seat" cost of ErgoEnterprise, the study indicated that the
breakeven/payback period is achieved in 25.1 hours of usage. Several large
industrial clients already have named ErgoEnterprise "Best Practice". The term
"Best Practice" is an acknowledgement that a concept, process, or product is
proven to produce the desired results and is applicable throughout the
enterprise across organizational lines.
Ergonomic Advisory Board
Magnitude has formed an Ergonomic Advisory Board (EAB) comprised of
individuals with noted expertise in the field of ergonomics and productivity to
ensure that Magnitude's ergonomic products remain at the forefront of these
industries. These respected leaders advise Magnitude on product requirements and
put their "stamp of approval" on the Company's EPS products, enhancing product
value and standing in these industries relative to the competition.
The EAB focuses on strategic issues, such as:
>> What product functions, components, and interfaces should Magnitude's
products possess?
>> What markets should Magnitude target?
>> What kinds of ergonomics measures and methods should be provided or
recommended?
>> What kinds of ergonomics analyses may companies do with their collected
datasets?
>> What kinds of research studies should Magnitude consider?
>> How will Magnitude's products fit with current and proposed ergonomics
regulations?
>> What other ergonomics issues should Magnitude consider?
EAB members serve two-year terms. Today, the EAB is comprised of:

Business Strategy
The most important prospective customers for the Company's products are
large and medium companies, organizations, and governmental departments and
agencies that have a relatively large staff working in computer-related
functions. These entities not only are more cognizant of the health risks and
negative effect on productivity associated with many of the traditional tools of
the computerized workplace and therefore tend to be more receptive to new
remedial solutions and alternatives based on the science of Ergonomics, but also
have a significant exposure in terms of legal liabilities if they fail to act by
addressing these potential risks. On an on-going basis, the increasing cost of
workers compensation insurance creates a growing incentive to deal with the
underlying causes.
With its new proprietary ergonomic software the Company offers a
comprehensive and effective tool for corporate clients to address the three
major issues involved: (a) employee wellness, (b) cost containment and
productivity enhancement, and (c) potential legal liabilities. While certain
portions of the ErgoEnterprise(TM) software suite have been previously marketed
as individual modules, the release to the market, in November 1998, of an
overall integrated solution in form of the ErgoEnterprise(TM) system constituted
a novel approach.
Since that time, the product has been installed by a growing number of
corporate and institutional clients. Typically, in view of the new-ness of
product and market, such client initially purchases a license for a "pilot
version" of the software, functionally complete but limited to a smaller number
of users. After undergoing a process of familiarization and evaluation the
client is expected to upgrade to the intended ultimate number of users which, by
definition, should encompass all personnel exposed to the above described risks.
Many tests and evaluations by third parties have confirmed to the Company's
satisfaction that its product is mature, stable, and effective. It is with a
high degree of confidence, therefore, that the Company expects many of the
ongoing trial installations to lead to larger enterprise orders and, thereby, to
the targeted revenue stream. The key to economic success lies in a comprehensive
marketing approach that carries the Company's message to the largest possible
number of prospective clients.
The Company intends to continue developing strategic marketing
relationships with leading business consultants, to broaden its distribution
channels to include tiered marketing arrangements, and to strengthen its direct
sales force and support organization, thereby focusing on a marketing approach
which emphasizes the advantages that accrue to a business from the unique
combination of risk management and productivity enhancement tools provided by
ErgoEnterprise(TM).
Research and Development
The Company has invested considerable resources in the further development
of the overall ErgoEnterprise(TM) system and related product documentation and
marketing collateral materials. In late summer 1997, the first official version
of ErgoEnterprise(TM), Version 1.78, was released, followed by yearly upgrades
since then. The Company is currently shipping Version 5.5 which was released in
February 2004.
The Company has expensed all expenditures related to the above efforts.
Such expenses totaled approximately $221,000 for the year ended December 31,
2004, and $228,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003.
Competition
The market addressed by the Company's software products is presently
served by a number of smaller software companies, none of which occupies a
dominant position. For the most, these competitors market software products that
address only one or a few of the task complexes covered by the Company's
products, without thereby offering a comparable breadth of function and
integration in such areas as work-site evaluation, employee training and work
pacing.
The Company is not aware of any products that compete - in terms of
breadth of functionality - with the integrated software product suite that is
marketed by the Company under the trade name ErgoEnterprise(TM). While the
Company believes that it currently has a strategic competitive advantage in
ergonomic software, especially with regard to its patented algorithms underlying
the product, there can be no assurance that competitors will not attempt to copy
the Company's products or develop and successfully license similar products, to
the Company's detriment.
Seasonality and Dependency
The industry segment in which the Company does business is not seasonal.
The Company's past revenues come primarily from smaller orders for pilot
projects and field tests, and a limited number of individual larger orders where
successfully completed pilot projects led to departmental or enterprise-wide
deployment. The nature of the business does not usually involve repeat orders
and therefore does not create dependency on a specific customer or group of
customers. The Company's future success is dependent upon its ability to
increase the frequency where initial pilot installations result in larger
contracts, as corporate clients introduce the Company's software products across
the entire spectrum of computer workplaces throughout their company or specific
divisions/departments. The relative major impact of individual larger orders,
the receipt or timing of which cannot be predicted with any degree of accuracy,
creates a significant measure of volatility that adds a degree of uncertainty to
all current planning and forecasting. There can be no assurance that the Company
will generate enough revenues during the coming periods, in a timely manner and
sufficient in scope, to finance and support the Company's planned future growth
as expected by management.
EMPLOYEES
As of May 31, 2005, the Company employed 10 persons, of whom four were primarily
engaged in research and development and software support activities, two were
primarily engaged in sales and marketing, and four in general administrative and
managerial functions. The Company has no collective bargaining agreements with
its employees.
PROPERTIES
On March 15, 2000, the Company entered a five year lease for approximately 6,000
square feet of office space at 401 Route 24, Chester, New Jersey. This lease
agreement calls for monthly rental payments of $6,500 with nominal increases
after years No. 2, 3, and 4. During February 2005, the term of the lease was
extended to March 31, 2007, at a monthly rental fee of $10,000.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF SECTION 21E OF THE
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
Except for historical information, the Company's reports to the Securities
and Exchange Commission on Form 10-KSB and Form 10-QSB and periodic press
releases, as well as other public documents and statements, contain
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by the statements. These risks and uncertainties include
general economic and business conditions, development and market acceptance of
the Company's products, and other risks and uncertainties identified in the
Company's reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission, periodic press
releases, or other public documents or statements.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking
statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to republish or revise
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date
hereof or to reflect the occurrences of unanticipated events.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Period Ended March 31, 2005 and 2004:
Our marketing efforts during the quarter were focused on broadening our
cooperative programs with our strategic partners Aon Risk Services Division and
U.S. HealthWorks whereby Magnitude will jointly market our ErgoEnterprise(TM)
software solutions to clients of both firms. We expect these ventures to produce
tangible results in terms of software licensing contracts during the upcoming
quarters in 2005. No such sales were as yet recorded during the first quarter
ended March 31, 2005 which yielded revenues of only $19,264, compared to the
$44,580 achieved in the first quarter of 2004.
Gross profits for the quarter amounted to negative $17,103, as a result of a
fixed charge for amortization of certain proprietary software assets. Such
software assets underlie the Company's products and are being amortized on a
straight line over 10 years, resulting in a level charge of approximately
$12,000 per month to cost-of-goods-sold. Our expense and cost structure was
essentially unchanged from prior periods, and, after deducting selling - and
general and administrative expenses of $587,643 which significantly decreased
from the $702,342 recorded in 2004, the Company realized an operating loss of
$604,746, compared to an operating loss of $696,717 in 2004. The decrease in
expenses was primarily attributable to lesser expenditures in non-cash
transactions for compensation and services. Non-operating income and expenses
consisted of $3,180 net interest expense and a credit of $17,537 for
cancellation of accruals for prior year expenses. The period result was a net
loss of $591,019, compared to a loss of $702,513 for the same periods in 2004.
After accounting for dividend accruals on outstanding preferred stock which
totaled $28,379 the net loss for the quarter applicable to common shareholders
was $619,398 or less than $0.01 per share, compared to a loss of $1,476,329 or
$0.02 per share for the same quarter in the previous year.
Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2004
The year 2004 was marked by continuing intensive efforts to gain full
market acceptance for our software products. Our financial resources did not
permit us to maintain a larger sales force and pursue a meaningful marketing
campaign targeted directly at end-user clients. We therefore had modified our
sales approach by concentrating almost entirely on developing indirect sales
channels whereby we could leverage the greater marketing capabilities of
distributors and other strategic partners to introduce and promote our products
to a larger audience of potential corporate clients. To that extent we signed,
in December 2004, a marketing agreement with Aon Corporation pursuant to which
Aon's Risk Services division and Magnitude will jointly market our
ErgoEnterprise software solution to clients of both firms. We expect this
venture to produce tangible results in terms of software licensing contracts,
during the first half of 2005.
For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company had revenues of $121,886
compared to $162,335 in 2003. Revenues consisted of $50,325 licensing fees for
the Company's software products and $71,561 for maintenance and support
services.
Gross profits amounted to negative $34,089. Gross profits are burdened
with a fixed charge for amortization of certain proprietary software assets.
Such software assets underlie the Company's products and are being amortized on
a straight line over 10 years, resulting in a level charge of approximately
$13,000 per month to cost-of-goods-sold. Owing to the fact that variable
cost-of-goods-sold expenses are less than 5%, the gross margins will increase
with larger revenues, as the portion of fixed expenses decreases relatively.
After deducting selling -, research -, and general and administrative expenses
of $2,600,359 which increased marginally by 6% from the $2,455,809 recorded in
2003, the Company realized an operating loss of $2,634,448 compared to an
operating loss of $2,449,421 in 2003. Non-operating income and expenses included
$43,069 net interest expense and $20703 charges for losses on assets. The
Company also realized a credit of $214,618 from the sale of net loss
carry-forward tax credits pursuant to the New Jersey Emerging Technology and
Biotechnology Financial Assistance Act. The year concluded with a net loss of
$2,483,602. After accounting for dividends paid and accrued on outstanding
preferred stock which totaled $174,024 and an accounting charge of $1,629,730
for discounts accrued on preferred stock, the net loss applicable to common
shareholders was $4,287,356 or $0.04 per share, compared to a loss of $2,464,174
or $0.04 per share for the previous year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In the absence of cash flow from operations, required working capital to finance
ongoing operations was supplied almost entirely from new equity capital. The
Company attracted almost $670,000 in new equity funding in the form of cash.
At March 31, 2005, the deficit in working capital amounted to $707,462 as
compared to $977,831 at December 31, 2004. Stockholders' equity showed an
impairment of $246,825 at the end of the quarter, compared to an impairment of
$480,228 at the beginning of the year. The negative cash flow from operations
totaled approximately $469,000 and was substantially financed by new equity
which was obtained through private placements. The new equity placements were
consummated by issuance of common stock and convertible preferred stock to
accredited private investors in the United States. Details of such transactions
can be found in the "Changes and Issuance of Securities" section of this report.
In April 2005 the Company had filed a new registration statement on Form SB-2
and amendments to three previously filed registration statements on Form SB-2,
all of which covered common shares directly issued as well as common shares
underlying the previously issued convertible preferred stock and warrants, in
connection with these and prior financing transactions. These filings were made
on behalf of certain investors in the Company's equities and proceeds of any
sales of such registered securities will accrue entirely to such investors.
At the time of this submission, the Company had no bank debt. At March 31, 2005
its short-term liabilities, aside from trade payables and accruals, consisted of
certain notes and loans aggregating approximately $233,000 of which
approximately $100,000 was owed to the chairman and chief executive officer of
the Company in form of a demand note (see "Related Party Transactions"). Current
liabilities include $501,466 unpaid dividends on outstanding preferred stock.
Such dividends will be paid only if and when capital surplus and cash-flow from
operations are sufficient to cover the outstanding amounts without thereby
unduly impacting the Company's ability to continue operating and growing its
business.
Current cash reserves and net cash flow from operations expected during the near
future are inadequate when measured against present and anticipated future
needs. In order to remedy the resulting liquidity constraints and address any
"going-concern" issues, management is currently negotiating with several
financing sources with the goal of obtaining commitments for further investments
in form of debt or equity capital, to be funded during the upcoming quarter.
There can be no assurance, however, that these negotiations will lead to the
desired outcome.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
On March 31, 2000, the Company and its President and Chief Executive
Officer agreed to convert a current liability payable to him in the amount of
$374,890 into a Company obligation, of which $100,000 was subsequently
classified as due on demand, which was repaid in April 2002, with the remaining
balance of $274,890 maturing July 1, 2002. On February 19, 2002, the maturity of
the term portion of $274,890 was extended to July 2003, and the board of
directors of the Company approved a change in the conversion option towards a
rate of $0.10 per share. In January 2004, $175,000 was repaid and the maturity
of the remaining open balance of $99,890 was extended to January, 2005. This
amount is currently open and unpaid and payable on demand.
In January 2004, the Company and its President and Chief Executive Officer
agreed to convert most of his base salary for the remainder of the year 2004
into 16,667 shares of convertible preferred stock, convertible into 1,666,667
restricted common shares, and 833,333 warrants, exercisable during three years
at the price of $0.15 per share, in lieu of $100,000 cash. The Company also
repaid $239,088 notes payable due to this officer.
During the first quarter in 2004, an outside director of the Company was
awarded a stock grant for 150,000 restricted common shares, for services
rendered. The same director exercised an option for 250,000 restricted common
shares at the price of $0.01 per share which option was acquired by him in a
private transaction with an unrelated party.
During the third quarter, five directors and officers of the Company
received a total 1,500,000 restricted common shares as remuneration for services
as members of the board of directors. One outside director who also serves as
the legal and securities counsel of the Company received 500,000 restricted
common shares as compensation for his commitment and agreement to continue to
invoice the Company for legal services at a reduced rate, in connection with
legal services rendered during fiscal year 2004.
During the third quarter the Company's chief executive officer extended
short term loans aggregating $100,000 to the Company. These loans carried
interest at the rate of 10% per year and were subject to a loan origination fee
of 4%. At December 31, 2004, all such loans had been repaid.
During 2004, one outside director of the Company who also serves as the
Company's general and securities counsel, was paid an aggregate $164,184, for
legal services. One other outside director was paid $10,400 for services
performed.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Organization
Magnitude Information Systems, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated as a
Delaware corporation on April 19, 1988 under the name Fortunistics, Inc.
On November 18, 1998, the Company changed its name to Magnitude
Information Systems, Inc.
The Company and Magnitude, Inc. are two separate legal entities whereby
Magnitude, Inc. operates as a subsidiary of the Company. However, the
operations of the combined entity are currently comprised solely of the
operations of Magnitude, Inc. The 1% of Magnitude, Inc. not owned by the
Company constitutes a minority interest which is valued at $0.
The Company's primary product is an integrated suite of proprietary
software modules marketed under the name ErgoEnterpriseTM which are
designed to help individual computer users and businesses increase
productivity and reduce the risk of potentially preventable repetitive
stress injury (RSI). These software modules can be applied individually or
together in a comprehensive ergonomic and early intervention program that
seeks to modify a user's behavior by monitoring computer usage patterns
over time and warning the user when to break a dangerous trend in
repetitive usage of an input device, such as a keyboard or mouse. The
product was developed to train people working on computers, monitor
computer-use related activities and evaluate a user's risk exposure and
propensity towards injury or loss of effectiveness in connection with
his/her day-to-day work. Moreover, the software enables a company to not
only address the issue of health risks involving employees and to minimize
resulting potential liabilities, but delivers a powerful tool to increase
overall productivity.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Magnitude
Information Systems, Inc. and its subsidiary Magnitude, Inc. All
significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Depreciation and Amortization
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation on equipment,
furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements is computed on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of such assets
between 3-10 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as
incurred. Software assets are capitalized at the fair value of stock
exchanged/granted upon acquisition and are amortized on the straight-line
method on a product-by-product basis over the estimated economic life of
the products which has been determined to be 10 years.
Securities Issued for Services
The Company accounts for stock, stock options and stock warrants issued
for services and compensation by employees under the intrinsic value
method. For non-employees, the fair market value of the Company's stock on
the date of stock issuance or option/grant is used. The Company determined
the fair market value of the warrants/options issued under the
Black-Scholes Pricing Model. Effective January 1, 1996, the Company
adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-based Compensation". The statement generally
suggests, but does not require, employee stock-
MAGNITUDE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2005
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued
based compensation transactions to be accounted for based on the fair
value of the services rendered or the fair value of the equity instruments
issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. As permitted by the
statement, the Company has elected to continue to follow the requirements
of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees' for employees under the intrinsic value method. The
adoption of SFAS No. 123 does not have a material impact on the financial
statements.
Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes based on enacted tax law and
statutory tax rates at which items of income and expenses are expected to
be settled in the Company's income tax return. Certain items of revenue
and expense are reported for Federal income tax purposes in different
periods than for financial reporting purposes, thereby resulting in
deferred income taxes. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating
losses that are available to offset future taxable income. Valuation
allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to
the amount expected to be realized. The Company has incurred net operating
losses for financial-reporting and tax-reporting purposes. Accordingly,
for Federal and state income tax purposes, the benefit for income taxes
has been offset entirely by a valuation allowance against the related
federal and state deferred tax asset for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share, in accordance with the provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards Board No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" is computed by
dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding during the period. Common Stock equivalents have not been
included in this computation since the effect would be anti-dilutive.
Revenue Recognition
The Company's revenue recognition policy for software sales is in
accordance with Accounting Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2 "Software
Revenue Recognition" and SOP 98-9 "Software Revenue recognition" which
modifies SOP 97-2. Revenue is recognized at the time of licensing provided
that the resulting receivable is deemed probable of collection and is
fixed or determinable. Revenue from software maintenance contracts is
recognized ratably as earned. When a sales contract includes multiple
elements, revenues are allocated to the various elements based on
Company-specific objective evidence of fair value, regardless of any
separate prices for each element that may be stated within the contract.
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.

MARCH 31, 2005
GOING CONCERN
The ability of the Company to continue its operations is dependent on
increasing sales and obtaining additional capital and financing. In their
report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, our auditors had
expressed an opinion that, as a result of the losses incurred, there was
substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going
concern. Management's plans are to continue seeking additional working
capital through equity and debt placements with private and institutional
investors.
CONCENTRATIONS OF BUSINESS AND CREDIT RISK
The Company maintains cash balances in a financial institution which is
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000.
Balances in these accounts may, at times, exceed the federally insured
limits.
The Company provides credit in the normal course of business to customers
located throughout the U.S. and overseas. The Company performs ongoing
credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for doubtful
accounts based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific
customers, historical trends, and other information.
PREPAID EXPENSES
Prepaid Expenses at the end of the quarter included $60,602 representing
the unamortized portions of the value of restricted stock and options
issued to certain consultants for services rendered, and approximately
$41,000 prepaid rent and insurance costs.

Independent Auditors' Report
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Magnitude Information Systems, Inc. and Subsidiaries
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Magnitude
Information Systems, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit),
and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. These financial
statements are the 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 the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audits 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. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Magnitude
Information Systems, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years
ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the notes to the
financial statements, the Company's significant operating losses raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Organization
Magnitude Information Systems, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated as a
Delaware corporation on April 19, 1988 under the name Fortunistics, Inc.
On November 18, 1998, the Company changed its name to Magnitude
Information Systems, Inc.
The Company and Magnitude, Inc. are two separate legal entities whereby
Magnitude, Inc. operates as a subsidiary of the Company. However, the
operations of the combined entity are currently comprised solely of the
operations of Magnitude, Inc. The 1% of Magnitude, Inc. not owned by the
Company constitutes a minority interest which is valued at $0.
The Company's primary product is an integrated suite of proprietary
software modules marketed under the name ErgoEnterpriseTM which are
designed to help individual computer users and businesses increase
productivity and reduce the risk of potentially preventable repetitive
stress injury (RSI). These software modules can be applied individually or
together in a comprehensive ergonomic and early intervention program that
seeks to modify a user's behavior by monitoring computer usage patterns
over time and warning the user when to break a dangerous trend in
repetitive usage of an input device, such as a keyboard or mouse. The
product was developed to train people working on computers, monitor
computer-use related activities and evaluate a user's risk exposure and
propensity towards injury or loss of effectiveness in connection with
his/her day-to-day work. Moreover, the software enables a company to not
only address the issue of health risks involving employees and to minimize
resulting potential liabilities, but delivers a powerful tool to increase
overall productivity.

Information Systems, Inc. and its subsidiary, Magnitude, Inc. All
significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Depreciation
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation on
equipment, furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements is computed
on the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of such assets
between 5-10 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as
incurred. Repairs and maintenance which do not extend the useful lives of
the related assets are expensed as incurred.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued)
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market
value and consists primarily of packaged software.
Amortization
Software assets are capitalized at the fair value of stock
exchanged/granted upon acquisition and are amortized on the straight line
method on a product-by-product basis over the estimated economic life of
the products which has been determined to be 10 years.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Advertising
expense was $491 and $31,546 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and
2003, respectively.
Evaluation of Long Lived Assets
Long-lived assets are assessed for recoverability on an ongoing basis. In
evaluating the fair value and future benefits of long-lived assets, their
carrying value would be reduced by the excess, if any, of the long-lived
asset over management's estimate of the anticipated undiscounted future
net cash flows of the related long-lived asset.
Securities Issued for Services
The Company accounts for stock, stock options and stock warrants issued
for services and compensation by employees under the intrinsic value
method. For non-employees, the fair market value of the Company's stock on
the date of stock issuance or option/grant is used. The Company determined
the fair market value of the warrants/options issued under the
Black-Scholes Pricing Model and applied a 50% discount due to the trading
nature of the Company's stock. A similar discount was utilized in valuing
stock issued. Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-based
Compensation". The statement generally suggests, but does not require,
employee stock-based compensation transactions to be accounted for based
on the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the equity
instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. As permitted by
the statement, the Company has elected to continue to follow the
requirements of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees' for employees under the intrinsic value
method. The adoption of SFAS No. 123 does not have a material impact on
the financial statements.
Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes based on enacted tax law and
statutory tax rates at which items of income and expenses are expected to
be settled in the Company's income tax return. Certain items of revenue
and expense are reported for Federal income tax purposes in different
periods than for financial reporting purposes, thereby resulting in
deferred income taxes. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating
losses that are available to offset future taxable income. Valuation
allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to
the amount expected to be realized. The Company has incurred net operating
losses for financial-reporting and tax-reporting purposes. Accordingly,
for Federal and state income tax purposes, the benefit for income taxes
has been offset entirely by a valuation allowance against the related
federal and state deferred tax asset for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share, in accordance with the provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards Board No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," is computed by
dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding during the period. Common Stock equivalents have not been
included in this computation since the effect would be anti-dilutive.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued)
Revenue Recognition
The Company's revenue recognition policy for software sales is in
accordance with Accounting Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2 "Software
Revenue Recognition" and SOP 98-9 "Software Revenue recognition" which
modifies SOP 97-2. Revenue is recognized at the time of licensing provided
that the resulting receivable is deemed probable of collection and is
fixed or determinable. Revenue from software maintenance contracts is
recognized ratably as earned. When a sales contract includes multiple
elements, revenues are allocated to the various elements based on
Company-specific objective evidence of fair value, regardless of any
separate prices for each element that may be stated within the contract.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted 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.
GOING CONCERN
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company incurred
net losses of $2,483,602 and $2,337,881 during the years ended December
31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and has a significant working capital
deficiency. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is
dependent on increasing sales and obtaining additional capital and
financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going
concern. Management's plans are to continue discussions with several
potential investors to obtain additional capital in order to alleviate the
situation.
CONCENTRATIONS OF BUSINESS AND CREDIT RISK
The Company maintains cash balances in several financial institutions
which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to
$100,000. Balances in these accounts may, at times, exceed the federally
insured limits.
The Company provides credit in the normal course of business to customers
located throughout the U.S. The Company performs ongoing credit
evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for doubtful
accounts based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific
customers, historical trends, and other information.

issued to consultants for future services and are amortized over the
period of the agreement, ranging from one to two years.

into shares of Common Stock of the Company on the basis of one
hundred (100) shares of Common Stock for 1 share of Series E Senior
Preferred. The holder of any shares of Series E Senior Preferred
shall surrender, as soon as practicable on or after the Conversion

such holder of Series E Senior Preferred so converted shall be
entitled. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made at the
close of business on the Conversion Date, so that the rights of the

except for the right to receive Common Stock of the Company in
accordance herewith, and such converting holder of Series E Senior
Preferred shall be treated for all purposes as having become the
record holder of such Common Stock of the Company at such time.
(8) In the event that, prior to the conversion of the Series E Senior
Preferred Stock by the holder thereof into Common Stock of the
company, there shall occur any change in the outstanding shares of
Common Stock of the Company by reason of the declaration of stock
dividends, or through a re-capitalization resulting from stock
splits or combinations, without the receipt by the Company of fair
consideration therefore in the form of cash, services or property,
the conversion ratio of the Series E Senior Preferred Stock into
Common Stock of the Company shall be adjusted such that any holder
of Series E Senior Preferred Stock converting such stock into Common
Stock subsequent to such change in the outstanding shares of Common
Stock of the Company be entitled to receive, upon such conversion, a
number of shares of Common Stock of the Company representing the
same percentage of common shares outstanding as presented by the
shares that he would have received had he converted his Series E
Senior Preferred Stock to Common Stock prior to such change in the
outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company.
As of December 31, 2004 there were $1,020 Series E Senior
Convertible Preferred share dividends accrued.

401(k) PLAN
The Company adopted the qualified Magnitude, Inc. sponsored 401(k) plan
covering substantially all full time employees under which eligible
employees may elect to contribute, within statutory limits, a percentage
of their annual compensation. The Company matches up to 50% of the
employee's contribution of which the match may not exceed 3% of the
employee's total compensation for the plan year. Contributions to the plan
were $14,389 and $16,175 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively.
STOCK OPTION PLANS
In April 1996, Magnitude, Inc. adopted its 1996 Stock Incentive Plan ("the
1996 Plan"). The 1996 Plan provides that certain options granted
thereunder are intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" (ISO)
within the meaning of Section 422A of the United States Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, while non-qualified options may also be granted under the
Plan. The initial plan and subsequent amendments provided for
authorization of up to 480,000 shares. Pursuant to the above described
stock exchange offer on July 2, 1997, all options under the 1996 Plan were
converted into shares of the Company at a rate of 3.4676 shares of
Magnitude, Inc. to 1 share of the Company.
In September 1997, the Company adopted its 1997 Stock Incentive Plan ("the
1997 Plan"). The 1997 Plan provides that certain options granted
thereunder are intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" (ISO)
within the meaning of Section 422A of the United States Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, while non-qualified options may also be granted under the
Plan. The initial plan and subsequent amendments provided for the grant of
options for up to 1,000,000 shares. The purchase price per share of common
stock deliverable upon exercise of each ISO shall not be less than 100% of
the fair market value of the common stock on the date such option is
granted. If an ISO is issued to an individual who owns, at the time of
grant, more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of
the Company's common stock, the exercise price of such option shall be at
least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of
grant and the term of the option shall not exceed five years from the date
of grant. The purchase price of shares subject to non-qualified stock
options shall be determined by a committee established by the Board of
Directors with the condition that such prices shall not be less than 85%
of the fair market value of the common stock at the time of grant.
In May 2000 the Company adopted its 2000 Stock Incentive Plan ("the 2000
Plan"). The 2000 Plan provides that certain options granted thereunder are
intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" (ISO) within the meaning
of Section 422A of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, while
nonqualified options may also be granted under the Plan. The initial Plan
provides for the grant of options for up to 5,000,000 shares. The purchase
price per share of common stock deliverable upon exercise of each ISO
shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock
on the date such option is granted. If an ISO is issued to an individual
who owns, at the time of grant, more than 10% of the total combined voting
power of all classes of the Company's common stock, the exercise price of
such option shall be at least 110% of the fair market value of the common
stock on the date of the grant, and the term of the option shall not
exceed five years from the date of grant. The purchase price of shares
subject to non-qualified stock options shall be determined by a
compensation committee established by the Board of Directors.

The value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions: expected dividend, 0%; risk-free interest rate, 5%; expected
volatility, 115%; and expected life (in years) of 4.4.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes
payable, long-term debt and capitalized lease obligations:
The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short term
maturity of these instruments.
Limitations
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on
relevant information and information about the financial instrument. These
estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters
of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision.
Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This statement covers
restructuring type activities beginning with plans initiated after
December 31, 2002. Activities covered by this standard that are entered
into after that date will be recorded in accordance with provisions of
SFAS No. 146. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 did not have a significant
impact on the Company's results of operations or financial position.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, which provides alternative methods
of transition for a voluntary change to fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation as prescribed in SFAS
123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Additionally, SFAS No. 148
required more prominent and more frequent disclosures in financial
statements about the effects of stock-based compensation. The provisions
of this Statement are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15,
2002. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a significant
impact on the Company's results of operations of financial position.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS Statement No. 149, "Amendment of
Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", which
amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging
activities under FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. This Statement is effective for
contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, except for certain
hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. Most provisions of
this Statement should be applied prospectively. The adoption of this
statement did not have a significant impact on the Company's results of
operations or financial position.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS Statement No. 150, "Accounting for
Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity". This Statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies
and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both
liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial
instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some
circumstances). This statement is effective for financial instruments
entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at
the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003,
except for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of nonpublic
entities, if applicable. It is to be implemented by reporting the
cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle for financial
instruments created before the issuance date of the Statement and still
existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption. The adoption
of this statement did not have a significant impact on the Company's
results of operations or financial position.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued)
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"),
Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees,
Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. FIN 45 requires a
company, at the time it issues a guarantee, to recognize an initial
liability for the fair value of obligations assumed under the guarantees
and elaborates on existing disclosure requirements related to guarantees
and warranties. The recognition requirements are effective for guarantees
issued or modified after December 31, 2002 for initial recognition and
initial measurement provisions. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a
significant impact on the Company's results of operations or financial
position.
In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"),
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No.
51. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated
by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the
entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest
or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its
activities without additional subordinated financial support from other
parties. FIN 46 is effective for all new variable interest entities
created or acquired after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities
created or acquired prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46
must be applied for the first interim or annual period beginning after
June 15, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 did not have a significant impact on
the Company' results of operations or financial position.
In 2004, the FASB issued SFAS Statement No. 151, "Inventory Costs, an
Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4". This Statement amends the guidance in
ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 "Inventory Pricing" to clarify the accounting for
abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and
wasted materials (spoilage). This Statement requires that these items be
recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the
criterion of "so abnormal". In addition, this Statement requires the
allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be
based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The provisions
of this Statement shall be effective for inventory costs incurred during
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is
permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after
the date this Statement is issued. The provisions of this Statement shall
be applied prospectively. The adoption of this Statement is not expected
to have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations or
financial position.

indemnification would otherwise be discretionary, and (ii) advance expenses to
the officers and directors as incurred in connection with proceedings against
them for which they may be indemnified. Magnitude has entered into
indemnification agreements with the officers and directors containing provisions
that are in some respects broader than the specific indemnification provisions
contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law. The indemnification
agreements may require the companies, among other things, to indemnify such
officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of
their status or service as directors or officers (other than liabilities arising
from willful misconduct of a culpable nature), to advance expenses incurred as a
result of any proceeding against them as to which they may be indemnified, and
to obtain directors' and officers' insurance if available on reasonable terms.
Magnitude believes that these charter provisions and indemnification agreements
are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.
Magnitude understands that the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission
is of the opinion that statutory, charter and contractual provisions as are
described above have no effect on claims arising under the federal securities
laws.
ITEM 25. OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION
Magnitude will pay all expenses incident to the offering and sale to the public
of the shares being registered other than any commissions and discounts of
underwriters, dealers or agents and any transfer taxes. Such expenses are set
forth in the following table. All of the amounts shown are estimates except the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") registration fee.
Legal fees and expenses 15,000.00
Accounting fees and expenses 5,000.00
Printing expenses 2,500.00
Miscellaneous expenses 5,000.00

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS
A. UNDERTAKING PURSUANT TO RULE 415
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
10(a)(3) Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"); (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. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the
total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC
pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set
forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
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; (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, 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 that remain
unsold at the termination of this offering.
7
B. UNDERTAKING IN RESPECT OF INDEMNIFICATION
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may
be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In
the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will,
unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
