herein. Therefore, approval of the two Proposals included herein
is assured.
PROPOSAL 1: SHARE EXCHANGE AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
The Company has been in the developmental stage since
inception and has undertaken no business operations to date. Other
than issuing shares to its original shareholders, the Company has
never commenced any operational activities. As such, the Company
can be defined as a "shell" company, who's sole purpose at this
time is to locate and consummate a merger or acquisition with a
private entity, in order that the shareholders of the Company may
benefit from increased liquidity in their respective securities
holdings in the Company. Relevant thereto, the Company's Board of
Directors has unanimously approved, on behalf of the Company, terms
of a Share Exchange Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "SCI
Agreement"), with the Suarro Communications, Inc. ("SCI"), a
privately-held company organized in accordance with the laws of the
State of Texas.
In March 1996, representatives of management of SCI
contacted legal counsel to the Company, seeking to merge with a
public vehicle. SCI had indicated that it was interested in
effecting a reorganization with an entity that was a reporting
company under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, in order to access the public capital markets to
implement its contemplated business plans. Counsel to the
Company, being aware of the Company's status as a "shell" company
with a need to find a private entity with which to merge,
approached management to discuss the possibility of their
interest in a merger transaction. Thereafter, the Company and
SCI, through their respective management and counsel for the
Company, conducted a preliminary review of the business
prospects, management, corporate standing, financial condition
and other relevant matters with respect to the Company and SCI.
During this time, management of the Company also discussed the
proposed transaction with all or a significant number of the
Company's present shareholders in order to obtain input into the
proposed change in the Company's business and provide assurances
that the shareholders would support the transaction relevant
herein. The representative of the Company during this process
included Mr. Sherwood, the Company's President and the Company's
legal counsel; representatives of SCI included Mr. McAuliffe, its
President. On April 25, 1996, and as amended in May 1996, the
Company's Board of Directors unanimously approved the general
terms of the SCI transaction, authorized the execution of the
letter of intent and amendments thereto with SCI, calling for a
special meeting of shareholders, establishing the agenda
therefore and other relevant matters. The agreement provides,
among other things, for the Company to amend its Articles of
Incorporation to increase its authorized capital to 20,000,000
common shares, par value $0.001 per share and 1,000,000 preferred
shares, no par value per share, undertake a forward split of its
issued and outstanding common stock wherein twenty (20) shares of
common stock will be issued in exchange for each common share and
thereafter, issue up to 5,200,000 shares of its "restricted"
common stock (post forward split) in exchange for all of the
issued and outstanding common shares of SCI, representing 300,000
common shares. The balance of the terms of the letter of intent
included various representations by the two companies, including
their respective capitalization, authority to undertake the
proposed transaction, terms relevant to closing of the proposed
transaction and other miscellaneous matters. On May ___, 1996,
the Company filed a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"), advising of the execution of the Letter of
Intent. The disclosure included in the aforementioned Form 8-K is
hereby incorporated by reference as if set forth herein.
The purpose of Proposal 1 is to obtain approval of the terms
of the SCI Agreement with SCI described herein. The Company
believes that the acquisition will be a non-taxable event which
will not result in any adverse tax consequences, either to the
Company or to its shareholders. A description of SCI's history,
business plan and financial information is included hereinbelow.
The principal reason for accepting the terms of the SCI
Agreement is to permit application of the Company as a public
vehicle to what management of the Company believes to be the
strong, viable business potential provided by SCI and its
management. Management was attracted to SCI because of what the
Company's Board of Directors viewed as the timely product and the
type of business engaged by SCI and the potential for SCI's growth,
as well as the potential opportunity to provide liquidity for the
Company's shareholders.
Proposed Terms of Acquisition
The Company presently has 50,000 common shares issued and
outstanding. Under the proposed SCI Agreement, the Company would
issue 5,200,000 "restricted" common shares to the shareholders of
SCI (post forward split), in exchange for 300,000 common shares
of SCI, which number represents all of the issued and outstanding
shares of SCI.
Allocation of Shares of the Company
The number of shares of the Company's common stock to be
issued for the shares of SCI was determined initially by arms-
length negotiations between the two parties. Among the principal
factors considered by the Board of Directors of the companies in
determining the number of shares to be issued were each company's
respective cash, assets and liabilities and the arbitrary value
placed upon the Company in these negotiations for being a public
reporting company. Other considerations relevant to SCI were
available technical and managerial resources; prospects for the
future; nature of present and expected competition; and the
potential for growth or expansion; the potential for profit; the
perceived public recognition of acceptance of products, services,
or trades; name identification and other relevant factors, as
well as the necessity in managements' view to structure a
reorganization without incurring negative tax consequences.
Based upon the foregoing factors, if the proposed reorganization
described herein is consummated, the Company's shareholders will
hold nineteen percent (19%) of the common stock outstanding and
the SCI shareholders will hold eighty one percent (81%) of the
common stock outstanding in the post-reorganization Company. The
Company's shareholders will accordingly hold nineteen percent
(19%) of the votes for the election of the Board of Directors and
other corporate matters to which shareholders are entitled to
vote and the SCI shareholders will hold eightydirectors, each share has one
percent (81%)
of such votes. It is anticipated that SCI will represent one
hundred percent (100%) of the post-reorganization Company's
revenue, income, if any, and assets.
Material Risk Factors
Following are various potential risk factors which the
shareholders of the Company should consider which may exist
relevant to the successful consummation of the SCI transaction.
1. Suarro Communications, Inc.
a. Going Concern. In the event SCI cannot obtain other
financing, this may impact its ability to continue as a going
concern. SCI's financial statements included in this Proxy
Statement have been prepared assuming that the Company will
continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization
of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of
business. The financial statements do not include any adjustment
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
b. Development Stage Company. SCI is a development stage
enterprise and has generated no revenues to date. The founders
and principal shareholders of SCI have undertaken the development
of the proprietary software and limited marketing of SCI's
"Annual Reports On-Line" (herein "ARO") before and since SCI's
inception. In order to fully undertake the marketing of the ARO
product (or any other SCI product) SCI must obtain significant
additional capital and/or equipment. There is no assurance that
SCI will obtain the needed additional capital. (See Risk Factor
"Undercapitalization".)
c. Undercapitalization/Need for Additional Financing. In
order to begin its business operations and generate revenues , SCI
requires substantial and immediate financing. Presently, SCI has no
commitments for any interim or permanent financing, including any
debt or equity financing and there is no assurance that any
financing will become available in order for SCI to begin its
operations. However management of SCI have and will continue to
undertake such discussions with venture capitalists, investment
bankers, banking institutions and others. The management of SCI
will also consider a public and/or private offering of the post-
reorganization Company's securities to obtain needed financing. If
any debt or equity financing becomes available, there can be no
assurance that the terms of such financing will be favorable to
SCI. Moreover, any such financing may result in the imposition of
restrictions on SCI's future borrowings and operating policies and,
in the case of equity financing, may substantially dilute the
equity position of SCI's shareholders. (See Risk Factor
"Dilution".)
d. Limited Operating History/Pro Forma Loss From Operations.
SCI was incorporated on March 1, 1996 and, in addition to acquiring
the proprietary software discussed herein since its inception, has
devoted a substantial amount of its time to organizational
activities as of the date of this Proxy. The operations of SCI are
subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new
business enterprise. SCI's ability to succeed may be hampered by
the expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently
encountered in connection with the formation and commencement of
operations of a new business, including, but not limited to,
management's potential underestimation of initial and ongoing costs
associated with the enterprise, overestimation of gross receipts
and market penetration, the adverse impact of competition, as well
as the impact on SCI, and its cash flow, of delays in the
implementation of SCI's business plan, unavailability of parts,
lack of trained personnel and soft consumer demand. Further, there
can be no assurances that SCI will be successful in its proposed
developmental activities; that SCI's products will meet with
consumer acceptance; or that SCI's operations will ultimately be
profitable. No assurances can be provided that SCI will generate
a profit from its operations in the future. Shareholders of the
Company should be aware that the SCI's Financial Statements
included in this Proxy Statement for the period from March 1, 1996
(date of inception) to March 15, 1996 indicate no revenues since
inception of SCI in March 1996. There can be no assurances that
SCI will conduct any operations in the future.
e. Debt Service Requirements. SCI to date has incurred no
debt to finance its product research and development. However, in
order to initiate its operations, market its products and generate
sales, substantial debt financing may be required. SCI may be
required to encumber a majority of its assets to secure such debt.
No commitments have been made nor can be assured of any financing
whatsoever. If SCI is unable to obtain debt or other financing
there this event would have a material adverse effect on the
viability of SCI.
f. Liquidation Value of Assets. The only tangible asset of
SCI is its proprietary software technology which would operate its
ARO system on the Internet. In the event of a liquidation of SCI,
it is likely that this asset would be of little or no value.
g. Competition. Competition within the Internet service
industry is intense. Most of SCI's competitors possess
substantially greater financial resources and greater numbers of
personnel than does SCI.
h. Dependence Upon Current Management of SCI. After closing
of the share exchange with SCI, SCI's current officers and
directors shall assume control of the day-to-day executive
functions of the Company, should the Company's shareholders approve
the proposed transaction. The Company would be dependent on the
services of Messrs. McAuliffe and Zenner and to the extent that
their services should become unavailable to the Company, the
Company would suffer materially. At this time SCI has not obtained
a "keyman" insurance policy for either Messrs. McAuliffe or Zenner.
Until such time as SCI becomes adequately capitalized in order to
begin its operations, no such insurance policy will be obtained.
There can be no assurance that in the event of the incapacity or
demise of either Mr. McAuliffe or Mr. Zenner that SCI would be able
to continue its operations or adequately replace either individual
with a person of similar ability or experience.
i. Dilution. If the SCI Agreement is approved by the
Company's shareholders, the Company's present shareholders will
experience significant dilution of their respective ownership in
the Company, retaining approximately 19% of the Company's
outstanding equity. In addition, proposed management of the
Company may elect to undertake an equity offering of the Company's
securities to generate additional capital after this proposed
transaction closes, or to issue additional stock to consummate a
transaction, or both, which will result in additional dilutive
effect on the present shareholders of the Company in the event such
an offering or transaction is successful.
2. Change in Control. Currently, shareholders of the Company
own 50,000 common shares of the Company (1,000,000 shares post
forward split). The applicable letter of intent between the
Company and SCI, as amended, provides that the Company will issue
5,200,000 "restricted" common shares to the present shareholders of
SCI (post forward split). Current Company shareholders should be
aware that they will not control a majority of the outstanding
common shares of the Company if the acquisition is approved and
consummated, as proposed.
The maximum percentage that current Company shareholders will
own is approximately 19% of the total issued and outstanding Common
Shares. Current Company shareholders should be aware that the
shares that will be issued to SCI's shareholders under the
Agreement would be "restricted" as that term is defined in Rule
144, but holders thereof would nonetheless possess the same voting
rights as those possessed by holders of free-trading stock.
Accordingly, SCI shareholders could adopt policies and will be in
the position to control virtually all decisions requiring
shareholder approval.
3. No Trading Market. Prior to this offering, there has been
no public market for the Company's securities and there is no
assurance such a market will develop at the conclusion of the
transaction proposed herein or, if developed, that it will
continue. In the absence of a public trading market, a shareholder
may be unable to liquidate his investment in the Company.
4. Potential Adverse Effect on the Market for the Company's
Securities. Effective August 11, 1993, the Securities and Exchange
Commission adopted Rule 15g-9, which established the definition of
a "penny stock," for purposes relevant to the Company, as any
equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per
share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share,
subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a
penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (i) that a broker or
dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks;
and (ii) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written
agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and
quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve
a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or
dealer must (i) obtain financial information and investment
experience and objectives of the person; and (ii) make a reasonable
determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable
for that person and that person has sufficient knowledge and
experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the
risks of transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must
also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a
disclosure schedule prepared by the Commission relating to the
penny stock market, which, in highlight form, (i) sets forth the
basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability
determination; and (ii) that the broker or dealer received a
signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the
transaction. Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of
investing in penny stock in both public offering and in secondary
trading, and about commissions payable to both the broker-dealer
and the registered representative, current quotations for the
securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in
cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly
statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for
the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited
market in penny stocks.
If the Company's securities were subject to the rules on penny
stocks, the market liquidity for the Company's securities could be
severely adversely affected.
5. Management of Potential Growth. SCI's management believes
that it is poised to fully begin marketing its Annual Reports On-
Line (ARO) product assuming needed operating capital or other
financing can be raised, of which there can be no assurance. If
such financing is obtained this could result in immediate and
significant growth of SCI. This growth, if effectuated, will
expose the Company to increased competition, greater overhead,
marketing and support costs and other risks associated with entry
into new markets and solicitation of new customers. To manage
growth effectively, the Company will need to continue to improve
and expand its operational, financial and management information
systems and to expand, train, motivate and manage its employees.
Should the Company be unable to manage growth effectively, its
results of operations could be adversely effected.
6. Absence of Dividends. Neither SCI nor the Company has
paid any cash dividends on its Common Stock since their
respective inception and management of SCI does not anticipate
paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. If the
transaction with SCI is approved by the shareholders of the
Company, the Company currently intends to retain future earnings,
if any, to fund continued operations and growth of the Company.
7. Proprietary Technology. The software technology which
will be employed to implement SCI's ARO product has been tested
by the management of SCI in conformity with the requirements of
Internet access providers. Even though the ARO product is
currently "on-line," there can be no assurance that it will
continue to remain compatible with the Internet. There can be no
assurance that the ARO software may require modification in order
to remain compatible with the Internet system which may require
additional capital and the loss of valuable time and sales for
SCI.
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT
OF SUARRO COMMUNICATIONS, INC.
SCI was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on
March 1, 1996, for the purpose of continuing to develop and to
market through the international computer Internet (herein
"Internet"), a cost-effective nationwide on-line business
information service, called Annual Reports On-Line. The Internet
is the world's largest electronic computer network. Since 1993,
the founders and sole shareholders of SCI, Messrs. Michael
McAuliffe and Christian Zenner have been developing computer
software technology to provide users of the Internet for free,
immediate access to the business information and annual reports
of companies trading on the national securities exchanges. This
information includes the companies annual reports, Securities and
Exchange Commission Form 10-K annual reports, press releases and
other material corporate information.
Michael McAuliffe and Christian Zenner are also the
developers and contributors of Annual Reports On-Line (ARO) to
SCI. From 1992 through February 1996, McAuliffe and Zenner (M&Z)
while associated with another Texas company, were the primary
developers of ARO. The associated Texas company was called Suarro
Communications Development, Inc. (SCDI), which is an Internet
Product development company. From 1992 through February 1996, M&Z
had advanced $458,685.71, in cash and services, to SCDI in
relation to developing the ARO technology, which became SCDI's
only debt. As a result of negotiations on February 26, 1996, M&Z
exchanged their $458,685.71 debt with SCDI in exchange for Annual
Reports On-Line (ARO).
On March 1, 1996, M&Z organized a new Texas corporation
called Suarro Communications, Inc, for the purpose of marketing
ARO, and then contributed Annual Reports On-Line to Suarro as
additional paid in capital.
Currently, in the opinion of management of SCI, one of the
most widely used methods of distributing financial data regarding
public traded companies is in the form of current company
information and its annual report. It is management of SCI's
belief that the securities investment community (comprised of
institutional, brokerage and individual investors) look to
published information as one of the primary methods of
determining the suitability of making an investment in that
company's stock. To continually develop, publish and distribute
current company information to the public has become very
expensive. When an investor requires information about a
company, they must first locate that company's information. If
the investor has to request information directly from the company
or from a broker dealer, it could be some time before the
information is available and the investor may thereby miss a
timely investment opportunity.
ARO provides a distribution channel for instantaneous access
to a company's current information, (annual reports and other on-
line financial data provided by the company to SCI). This
service will drastically reduce distribution cost for companies
wishing to make their annual reports available in mass
quantities. For example, a firm printing 300,000 reports can
have costs approaching $1,000,000, but could potentially reduce
its printing cost to under $50,000 with ARO. Further, as this
means of distributing annual reports increases, it is likely that
the "exotic" reports (i.e. color, graphics, etc.) will be
reserved for on-line viewership and the printed documents in hard
copy form will be less attractive.
ARO, SCI's flagship on-line product, was originated to
satisfy a issue confronting the business community. Pertinent
Company Information At-A-Glance for the investing community.
Although there is an abundance of information available on
publicly traded and small cap companies it takes time to find it!
ARO provides the investment community a user friendly, single
source, for most of the information required to make an
intelligent investment decision. Further, the information
retrieved through ARO is provided in a fashion that is easy to
understand, which can be instantly obtained - free, from the
desktop computer.
Another issue ARO was originated to satisfy is, Small Cap
Companies and their difficult time with public awareness. Many
small companies try to "solve" the lack of public awareness
problem by placing ads for their company information in various
financial publications. This invites the reader to request a
copy in the belief that this will promote awareness. The fact of
the matter is, that most of those potential investors who do
request a copy of the report do not know how to read the
financial statements or make an informed decision on the value of
the investment. Suarro will offer the small company a vehicle to
distribute their reports on a wide-scale basis. The Small Cap
Companies have no vehicle available to them to tell potential
investors who they are and what they do. Most analyst and wall
street brokerage houses do not give small caps recognition. ARO
offers Small Cap Companies the ability to be seen in the same
light as Big Board Giants - again free, from the desktop.
SCI will market its ARO product directly to companies on an
annual subscription basis. The fees charged to customers will
vary depending on the required service. The base ARO annual fee
for Publicly Traded Companies is currently priced at $9,500, with
a monthly maintenance fee of $75.00. The base annual fee includes
development of customer home page under SCI's Internet address,
creation of companies annual report, and quarterly reports, plus
on-going storage and technical maintenance related to customer
files.
The customer will pay additional fees for press releases On-
Line, for Corporate and Financial Services On-Line, for Marketing
and Promotional Material published On-Line, for Product
Specifications and Technical Data published On-Line and for back
annual reports published On-Line. The pricing of these
additional services will vary, depending on the customer needs
and specifications. Most additional services, except for Back
Annual Reports, will be billed for at the rate of $75.00 per
hour. Back Annual Reports will be developed and published on-line
at the rate of $3,500 each to customer.
SCI will market ARO through direct marketing to its
customers. The primary distinctions that provide a solid
foundation of success for Suarro's marketing strategy are:
Market Experience
Product Experience
Proven Sales Strategies
Existing Customer Relationships
Existing Long Term Vendor Relationships
Identified Sales/Marketing Talent
Proven Telemarketing and Lead Generation Systems
SCI's overall marketing plan is based on systems and
strategies that have produced results in the principal's past
ventures. By staying current with the ever-changing Internet
marketplace, SCI has been able to keep its proprietary marketing
concepts up-to-date.
The overall marketing plan for the SCI product/service is
based on the following fundamentals:
SCI will focus on the Internet products/content.
SCI will primarily focus its activities on
the business use of its services.
SCI plans to out source public relations, media
campaigns, promotions and other key marketing
activities to agencies experienced in the field.
SCI intends to mature its Internet distribution
channel as the market becomes increasingly accepting to
this channel.
SCI plans to become a dominant player in the
distribution of annual reports and other financial
information.
There are many things in regard to the Internet that
are certain, but some are not. One is the data used to derive
market information (number of accesses), time spent in
certain areas of the Internet, demographic data and so forth
have not been clearly defined. Therefore, SCI has taken the
following approach for both aspects of its product offerings,
ARO and Internet services:
The power of marketing on the Internet MUST be
complimented by traditional marketing activities. In
other words, SCI will not depend upon the global
aspect of the Internet to bring customers to its
product lines.
The Market For ARO: SCI has done extensive research
both on local and national levels to position their primary
product, ARO. Research activity has included:
Data Base Marketing Activities
Prospect Contact And Data Base Verification
Numerous Conversations With Other Information
Providers
Competitive Research
In the Houston, Texas market, nearly 300 companies were
polled to determine the marketability of the ARO product.
Overwhelmingly, the poll showed there indeed is a desire for the
product. Both the distribution of annual reports and taking part
in an Internet project that makes reports available on a global
basis.
Direct mail will be a key component in the SCI's marketing.
During the telemarketing sales cycle, it is important the
targeted customer receives information in a timely manner. The
target is called within one week after the mailing to ensure the
mailing was received. SCI intends to develop and execute an
extensive nationwide direct mail campaign based on data base
marketing techniques developed by Kuhlman, Lutz & Brown, Inc. a
prestigious Houston advertising agency.
There is a growing trend towards advertising products and
services on the Internet. SCI will take full advantage of
Internet advertising where appropriate.
Advertising will consist of four color and black and white
advertisements in the primary financial magazines and will give
SCI immediate visibility in the market. The Wall Street Journal
(Journal) will be the focal point of print advertising for SCI.
It is anticipated that not only will the advertisements in the
Journal attract current Internet users to the ARO product, but
may ultimately lead to thousands of potential clients. However,
there can be no assurances that this will occur.
Advertisements will also target local metropolitan markets
through the use of the business sections of the major newspaper
as well as local technology related periodicals (like the Houston
Business Journal and Computer Currents). The credibility
established with these advertisements is difficult to measure.
Rather than measure the advertisement from leads and revenue,
they will be viewed as a reinforcement to the other forms of
advertising. The same is true for trade shows. If potential
customers do not see a company at major trade shows, they will
see the competitors.
SCI also intends to develop initially four color brochures
to target both its ARO clients and on-line services. The
brochures will be used in the mailings described above as well as
for direct response to inquiries to advertising pieces. SCI also
intends to set up a FAX back response system, and of course on-
line demonstrations of the ARO service.
SCI provides a demonstration diskette that allows potential
customers to "try before they buy" the ARO services. Once a
buying decision is made, the potential client will be able to
sign on for services immediately through SCI's Home Page located
at the Internet Address(http//www.suarro.com). All the customer
must do is point and click, and ARO activates that customers
file, which is pre-loaded with the customers pertinent company
information, and subscription agreement. The customer must then
only decide the method of electronic payment, wire transfer or
major credit card.
A number of cooperative marketing activities have been
planned with complimentary service vendors. These include
cooperative advertisements and sponsoring events to introduce
business customers to on-line services and technology. The goal
of these efforts is to give SCI added exposure to potential
customers and increased stature through being associated with
industry players. Several hardware vendors are expected by
management to refer customers to SCI for Internet solutions. SCI
will continue to seek referral programs with other hardware and
software suppliers. SCI will also seek co-operative marketing
agreements to further develop its Internet marketing and
promotional activities. These agreements could potentially be
with:
Advertising Agencies
Media Brokerage Firms
Promotional Firms
Public Relations Firms
SCI has developed a lead generation system using complex
criteria based on actual success in qualifying potential clients.
The systems are currently in place and leads are being generated.
SCI will also concentrate on generating quality leads through its
alternative marketing channels (strategic relationships, vendor
referrals, etc.). Since SCI's short and long-term objective is to
effectively cover as many accounts with a high ratio of technical
to sales, it is imperative that SCI concentrate on quality lead
generation systems and activities. SCI is currently processing
(in various stages of qualifications) a customer data base of
over 3,500 entries.
In addition to ARO, SCI offers a wide range of services to
the Internet community including:
Internet Access Services: Services are provided to
individuals and businesses. On the Internet, users can access
thousands of data bases and talk electronically with experts
world-wide on countless business, technical and personal topics.
Internet Consulting Services: SCI will provide experienced
'Internet Operating' experts to aid customers in all phases of
network planning, implementation and operation related to
Internet access. This consulting will also lead to on-line
service sales of products offered by SCI.
Network Design: SCI has in-depth experience in network
design and will offer network analysis, specification and
decision for Internet access. This consulting will be provided
for small to medium sized companies who wish to develop and
Internet presence and/or utilize SCI's on-line services.
Installation and Support Services: SCI will install and/or
take responsibility for installing and testing any product
provided by or through SCI. After systems and software are
installed, SCI will support the installation through both
hardware and software support. This support will either be
through the manufacturer or using SCI support personnel depending
upon the circumstances.
Internet Advertising And Marketing Support: Internet
advertising is unlike any other type of advertising. SCI will
help its customers properly structure their Internet "electronic
advertising" approach to optimize their presence on the net. SCI
will provide a "turn-key" approach at delivering results oriented
marketing and advertising approaches for its clients.
SCI will offer several services in this area, including:
Creative Services and Concept Development
Web Page Design And Editing
Graphic Design and Image Manipulation
Audio Clips
SCI's Web advertising and marketing strategy allows clients to:
Interact Directly With Potential Customers
Worldwide
Provide On-line Services
Provide An Internal Network For Customers
Intranet"
Stay Ahead Of Competition, That Are Behind In
Their "Electronic Strategy"
Commodity On-line Products: SCI has been researching other
opportunities for on-line services since its inception. There are
several of these that SCI will explore in a formal fashion during
the first year of operation, including, On-line Financial
Services, Banking Services, Information Systems, and Additional
Investor Information
The Overall Market For Internet Service Providers: Not since
the introduction of the Personal Computer by IBM in the early
1980's has there been such a robust marketing environment for a
high-tech industry. The numbers by all accounts are literally
"off-the-chart". The numbers of new companies being formed to
provide Internet Access are growing exponentially by quarter.
There is, however, one gigantic thorn in the side of the
Internet frenzy... When a company is chartered to appeal to a
world-wide "fad" as soon as the excitement wears, the company's
future is uncertain. This is beginning to happen in the Internet
marketplace in large numbers.
SCI's analysis strongly indicates that during 1996 and
beyond - only the strong will survive. In other words, Internet
Service Providers that add no value beyond a modem and a local
number will have a difficult time staying in business.
To fully implement SCI's plan, it is anticipated that SCI
will seek private debt/equity financing of approximately $300,000
in increments. Once the company is funded for the first $100,000,
it will immediately embark on planned business expansion
activities described below:
Continue The Technical Process Of Seeding Companies On ARO
Initiate ARO Subscription Agreements
Expand Corporate Facilities
Upgrade Administrative Computer System(s)
Secure Accounting Support In Establishing Systems,Policy's and
Procedures
Upon anticipated funding (no funding is presently assured) SCI
will immediately move forward with the activities outlined in the
following sections. The costs associated with these activities
provide the basis for SCI's overall revenue and expense
projections.
SCI plans to procure hardware, software and
telecommunications equipment through a competitive bidding
process by vendors. Procurement will utilize various vendor
financing packages such as open account, lease purchase, rental
purchase, lease financing, and time purchase contracts, which
greatly reduces the initial capital outlay.
Relationships with outside services have already been
established, and SCI is ready to commence business operations
immediately after funding. SCO is a firm believer in
concentrating on its core business and will outsource services
wherever viable. Services that are currently planned to be
outsourced include:
Accounting Services
Legal Services
Data Base Marketing, Telemarketing and Fulfillment
Programming Services and Front-end Development
Advertising and Promotional Activities
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The activities of SCI since inception have been financed
from sources other than operations. SCI's sources of funds have
been the limited proceeds from initial sales of its Common Stock.
SCI plans to raise additional capital from two sources, private
sales of its common stock, and short term equipment financing
from vendors.
Plan of Operations
SCI is in the development stage of establishing a regional
marketing program for its ARO products and services, and
therefore has not derived any revenues from operations since its
inception.
Additionally, SCI has been analyzing and assessing Internet
Access Service markets utilizing its basic telecommunication
equipment.
Use of Proceeds
The net proceeds which are expected to be raised are
$300,000, that will be utilized as follows:
Capital Equipment................................. $180,000 (1)
Data Base Software ............................... 60,000 (2)
Facilities Expansion ............................. 10,000 (3)
Working Capital .................................. 50,000 (4)
If the proceeds above are raised, SCI will be able to bring its
Annual Reports On-Line (ARO) product to the market place. The
proceeds will be used for capital equipment, data base
software, facilities expansion, and working capital to cover
administrative support cost over a period of approximately three
to four months. After this three to four month period, SCI will
be able to continue operations from sales of its ARO product and
Internet Access Services.
(1) Includes all cost of essential capital equipment,
including installation, setup, and training to efficiently
operate SCI's ARO product, and on-line services. This essential
equipment includes, 1 Digital Server($17,500), 1
Digital Mini Computer($110,000), 1 T1 Hardware ($3,600),
4 Fax Machines($750 ea.), 4 Scanners($2,000 ea.), 1
Telephone System Upgrade ($5,000), 6 Personal Computer
Upgrades ($3,500 ea.) , and 1 Network Server ($12,500).
(2) Includes all cost ($60,000) to acquire specialized Data
Base Software which allows SCI to access corporate records filed
with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC), and disseminated
by EDGAR Dissemination Service. The corporate records data base
is maintained by Lexis Nexus, and are updated weekly, and
electronically down loaded to SCI.
(3) Includes all cost ($10,000) to expand current facilities
to facilitate additional office staff, which includes additional
leased space, furniture and fixtures.
(4) SCI will use approximately $5,000 to obtain additional
office supplies, and the remaining $45,000 will be maintained to
cover negative cash flow during the first three to four months of
operations.
In the event SCI's financing occurs more slowly, this will
result in implementation delays, which will also have a negative
affect on available cash flow. In regard to financing, certain
vendors have expressed to management a willingness to finance
their respective equipment and/or services for SCI. It is planned
that vendor financing coupled with interim financing will allow
SCI to implement full scale marketing of ARO. In regard to short
term (interim) financing, the controlling shareholders, McAuliffe
and Zenner, have limited capital available with which to finance
the company on an interim basis. Therefore obtaining permanent
financing remains critical to the long term financial well being
of SCI. There can be no assurances that SCI will obtain any
financing in the future, which will have a significant negative
impact on the Company's ability to commence business operations,
assuming that the SCI Agreement is adopted by the Company's
shareholders.
Despite the uncertainty of procuring long term financing,
SCI management is of the opinion that ARO will be widely accepted
by its targeted customers. This opinion is based on positive
response received from customers already On-Line in SCI's test
market, positive response from potential clients who are
currently reviewing SCI's ARO Demonstration Disk and also on
positive response from polled potential customers in the greater
Houston area, of whom a great many expressed a sincere interest
in utilizing the ARO program for their company and products.
However, despite the studies undertaken by management of SCI,
there can be no assurances that the SCI marketing plan will be
successfully implemented.
Managements' positive opinion in regard to ARO acceptance,
is also based the following known facts:
The Internet industry and its market acceptance continues to
grow exponentially, at the rate of 15% each month (as
reported by major news sources).
That all companies are very interested in reducing cost,
especially cost associated with non-income producing
activities such as publishing and distributing written
company information.
That all publicly traded companies desire to have company
information readily available to potential investors.
That all potential investors desire to have immediate access
to pertinent company information, free of charge.
SCI's management is confident that ARO favorably addresses
all the issues mentioned hereinabove. ARO offers SCI customers a
very cost effective alternative and it is much faster than
conventional publishing and mailing volumes of written
information in hard copy form. One entire company file,
containing hundreds of pages, can be electronically distributed
by ARO to literally thousands of interested parties in less time
than was required to read this page. ARO is completely developed,
tested and currently On-Line, ready to be marketed full scale.
Coupled with these positive points, access to ARO is free to
millions of worldwide Internet users.
Currently, only Messrs. McAuliffe and Zenner are employed by
SCI, without pay. As anticipated financing is received by SCI,
additional independent contractors will be employed on an "as
needed" basis. The staff requirements for SCI will grow as
funding and, therefore, marketing develops.
Presently, there is no public trading market for SCI's common
stock. SCI has 2 shareholders. SCI has never paid a dividend on
its common stock and does not anticipate the payment of dividends
in the immediate future.
Directors and Executive Officers of SCI
In the event the shareholders of the Company approve the SCI
transaction, it is anticipated that the Company's present officers
and directors will tender their respective resignations and appoint
the present directors of SCI as directors of the Company. Relevant
thereto, the following is a brief biography of the present officers
and directors of SCI:
Michael McAuliffe, President, CEO and a director, age 36, co-
founded SCI in March, 1996 and has acted as President/CEO since
that time. From December, 1983 through September 1992, Mr.
McAuliffe was involved in commercial real estate acting primarily
as a commercial real estate analyst and broker. He is a Designated
Member, Appraisal Institute, No. 9447, and was appointed to the
Regional Ethics and Counseling Panel of the Appraisal Institute.
Mr. McAuliffe is or has been a State Certified General Real Estate
Appraiser in the following states: Texas, Michigan, the
Commonwealths of Massachusetts and Pennsylvania, Connecticut, New
York, and New Jersey. Additionally, he is a licensed Real Estate
Broker with the Texas Real Estate Commission. From October, 1992
through February, 1996 Mr. McAuliffe acted as special consultant
and investor to Suarro Communications Development, Inc. (SCDI), a
Texas Development Company. SCDI, over a period of three years,
developed proprietary software, technology, marketing rights,
copyright(s), art work and html code for internet applications.
Additionally, SCDI was involved in software development, user
front-end, database search engines and database development. Mr.
McAuliffe graduated from Southwest Texas State University in
December, 1982 with a Bachelor of Business Administration Degree
with primary emphasis on management, finance and real estate. Mr.
McAuliffe devotes all of his time and effort to the business of SCI
and it is anticipated that he will continue to do so in the event
the proposed transaction with the Company described herein is
successfully consummated.
Christian Zenner, Secretary, Vice President of Operations
and a director, age 26, co-founded SCI along with Mr. McAuliffe
in March 1996. From August, 1992 through December, 1992, Mr.
Zenner was involved in cable TV, MMDS cable and the aggregation
of cellular licenses for various developers as a consultant, and
conducted feasibility studies and proforma analysis on various
related projects. From January, 1993 through February, 1996, Mr.
Zenner acted as special consultant and investor to Suarro
Communications Development, Inc. (SCDI), a Texas development
stage company, during which time SCDI developed proprietary
software, technology, marketing rights, copyright(s), art work
and html code for internet applications. Additionally, SCDI
developed software, user front-end, database search engines and
databases. Mr. Zenner, while with SCDI, was responsible for
creating proprietary software and operating technology for
applications for the Internet. During this same period Mr. Zenner
additionally authored various software applications, user front-
ends, data search engines and data bases for other outside
parties. Mr. Zenner completed studies from the University of
Houston in 1992 with a Bachelor of Business Administration Degree
with a primary emphasis on Real Estate Finance. Mr. Zenner
devotes all of his time to the business of SCI and it is
expected that he shall continue to devote all of his time upon
the successful consummation of the transaction with SCI described
herein.
Executive Compensation
No compensation has been paid to the officers of SCI since its
inception. The following table reflects all potential compensation
which will be paid to Messrs. McAuliffe and Zenner if adequate
financing is obtained for SCI, of which there can be no assurance.

(1) It is anticipated that, after the closing of the transaction and
obtaining financing in the sum of at least $100,000, Mr. McAuliffe will begin
receiving a salary of $36,000 per year. No executive officer of the Company
received compensation during 1995, nor is expected to receive compensation
exceeding $100,000 in 1996.
The Company has adopted a policy whereby the directors of
the Company may be compensated for out of pocket expenses
incurred by each of them in the performance of their relevant
duties. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, there is no
maximum established for reimbursement of the expenses.
Stock Option Plans
SCI may establish and adopt a non-qualified Incentive Stock
Option Plan and an Employee Stock Option Plan after successful
consummation of the proposed transaction with the Company.
Effects of the SCI Transaction on the Company and its
Shareholders
Subsequent to the business combination with SCI, the SCI
shareholders will control a majority of the common stock of the
Company. As a result of the large number of common shares being
issued in connection with the business combination, the fact that
the shares represent unregistered, "restricted" securities and
there is no present market for the Company's securities, the
principal factors considered by the Company and SCI in
determining the number of shares to be issued were each company's
respective cash, assets and liabilities, as well as the necessity
in managements' view to structure a reorganization without
incurring negative tax consequences. In addition, values were
attributed to both companies for their respective managements,
professional personnel and operational prospects.

Recommendations of Directors on SCI Acquisition
The Board of Directors has determined that the SCI
Acquisition is just and reasonable to the Company and in its best
interests, has authorized and approved the terms of the SCI
Acquisition and the transactions contemplated thereby and has
authorized its submission to the stockholders of the Company. In
support of its position that the SCI acquisition is just and
reasonable and in the Company's best interests, the relevant
disclosure relating to the reasons supporting the decision of
management to undertake the SCI Acquisition included in the five
paragraphs under Proposal No. 1 beginning on page 7, above, as
well as the disclosure included under the subheading "Allocation
of Shares" on page 9, above, is hereby incorporated by reference
thereto.
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the
shareholders vote "FOR" for proposal to approve the Share
Exchange Agreement and Plan of Reorganization with SCI.
Approval of the SCI Agreement and the transactions
contemplated thereby will require the affirmative vote of a
majority of the shares of the Company's Common Stock entitled to
vote and represented at this Special Meeting in person or by
proxy. The proxies solicited hereby will be voted for approval
of the SCI acquisition unless the shareholder specifies
otherwise. Because the Company's present officers and directors
hold, in the aggregate, 65% of the Company's voting securities
and they each intend to vote in favor of the Proposal, approval
of the Proposal is assured.
The Terms of the Share Exchange Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization with SCI
The terms and conditions of the Share Exchange Agreement and
Plan of Reorganization between the Company and SCI are set forth
as Exhibit "A" to this Proxy Statement. The statements made in
this Proxy Statement with respect to the terms of the
transactions do not purport to be complete and are subject to,
and are qualified in their entirety to, all of the terms and
conditions of the Share Exchange Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization, which is attached hereto and incorporated herein
by reference. However, all of the material terms of the proposed
transaction are included hereinbelow.
1. Upon execution of the relevant Agreement with SCI, the
Company shall cause to be issued a total of 5,200,000 shares of
"restricted" common stock (post forward split) to the
shareholders of SCI, representing approximately 81% of the
Company's issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. Shares
of the Company's Common Stock issued upon effectiveness of the
Agreement will be restricted and not transferable except in
connection with a registration statement filed under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or an applicable
exemption under the Act.
Rights of the shareholders of the Company will not be
affected by this transaction, except to the extent presently
outstanding shares will be reduced to approximately 19% of the
outstanding shares of the Company following the SCI transaction.
2. There is presently no trading market for the common or
preferred equity of the Company. Upon closing of the SCI
transaction, SCI has undertaken to cause to be filed an
application to list the Company's Common Stock for trading the
Electronic Bulletin Board operated by the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. or such other exchange as the Company
may so qualify. If and when the Company meets the applicable
listing criteria, management of SCI has also undertaken to file
an application to cause the Company's securities to become listed
on a national exchange or on NASDAQ. There can be no assurances
that the Company's application to list its common stock for
trading will be accepted, or that the Company will satisfy the
requisite listing criteria, or whether the Company will ever have
sufficient assets to allow the Company to file an application for
listing on a national exchange or NASDAQ. However, regardless of
whether the Company is successful in causing its securities to be
traded on a national securities market, management of the Company
believes that the successful consummation of the SCI transaction
will provide a greater opportunity for the shareholders of the
Company to obtain liquidity in their respective stock ownership
than would exist if the Company attempted to continue to seek
potential private companies with which to reorganize and engage
in no business operations. There are no assurances that any
market will develop in the Company's securities after the SCI
transaction is consummated. See "Selected Risk Factors."
3. Because the Company is acquiring all of the issued and
outstanding stock of SCI, the Company believes the reorganization
will qualify as a tax-free reorganization pursuant to the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),
including, without limitation, Section 368(a)(1)(B) thereof.
However, there can be no assurances of such tax-free nature, as
the Company does not intend to obtain an opinion of counsel as to
the tax-free nature of the reorganization, as the cost to the
Company would be prohibitive. Should the transaction not be tax-
free, then SCI's shareholders would be required to recognize gain
equal to the difference between their cost of SCI shares and the
value of Company shares received.
4. The SCI Agreement provides that a closing (the
"Closing") to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby
will take place as promptly as practicable after the Company's
shareholders approve the SCI Agreement, subject to certain
possible extensions.
5. In the SCI Agreement, SCI makes certain representations
as to the ownership and title to the assets of SCI, the authority
to enter into the SCI Agreement, the organization, capitalization
and financial condition of SCI. The Company also makes certain
representations and warranties about its organization,
capitalization and financial condition and authorization of the
SCI Agreement and the shares of the Company's Common Stock to be
issued to SCI pursuant thereto.
6. Consummation of the SCI Agreement is subject to a number
of conditions, which may be waived, including, among others (i)
the performance of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth
in the SCI Agreement; (ii) the accuracy as of the Closing of
certain of the representations and warranties contained in the
SCI Agreement; and (iii) approval of the SCI Agreement by all of
the SCI shareholders. As of the date of this Proxy Statement,
the Company has been advised that 100% of the SCI shareholders
have elected to exchange their shares for shares of the Company.
In addition, the Company is not obligated to proceed with the
Closing unless, among other things, the SCI Agreement is approved
by at least a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's
common stock entitled to vote and represented at a shareholder's
meeting, in person or by proxy.
PROPOSAL NUMBER 2: Amendments to Articles of Incorporation
Pursuant to Article II of the Company's Articles of
Incorporation and subject to the affirmative vote of Holders
holding a majority of the outstanding Common Stock of the
Company, the Board of Directors of the Company has approved and
hereby submits to the shareholders two (2) amendments to the
Company's Articles of Incorporation, including:
(i) Article II, which states the name of the Company as
"Solutions Incorporated" This amendment will change the name of
the Company to "Suarro Communications, Inc". In the event
Proposal No. 1, above, approval of the Share Exchange Agreement
and Plan of Reorganization with SCI is approved, management of
SCI has expressed an interest in maintaining the continuity of
SCI's business by changing the Company's name pursuant to the
Proposal submitted herein; and
(ii) Article V, which establishes the number of authorized
capital of the Company at 1,000,000 common shares, par value
$0.001 per share. The amendment proposes to increase the number
of authorized common shares of the Company to 20,000,000 common
shares, par value $0.001 per share and further, authorize
1,000,000 preferred shares, no par value per share. No changes
to the rights of the Company's authorized common stock are
proposed. Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to
time in one or more series as may be determined by the Board of
Directors. The voting powers and preferences, the relative
rights of each such series and the qualifications, limitations
and restrictions thereof shall be established by the Board of
Directors, except that no holder of Preferred Stock shall have
preemptive rights. The Board of Directors does not plan to issue
any shares of Preferred Stock for the foreseeable future, unless
the issuance thereof shall be in the best interests of the
Company.
The Company's Board of Directors unanimously recommends
voting FOR the Proposal to amend the Company's Articles of
Incorporation, changing the name of the Company to "Suarro
Communications, Inc.", increasing the number of common shares
authorized to 20,000,000 common shares, par value $0.001 per
share and authorize 1,000,000 preferred shares, no par value per
share.
Pursuant to the provisions of the Company's Articles of
Incorporation, approval of the aforesaid Amendment to the
Articles of Incorporation will require the affirmative vote of a
majority of the shares of the Company's Common Stock entitled to
vote and represented at this Special Meeting of Shareholders in
person or by proxy. Because the Company's officers and directors
own, in the aggregate, over 50% of the Company's voting
securities and they each intend to vote in favor of the Proposal,
approval of the Proposal is assured.

with respect to certain shares as to which there may exist a
restriction on transfer imposed by the Company or by law or
regulation), unless demands for such payment are filed, as

statement of the law relating to dissenters' rights and is
qualified in its entirety by Chapter 92A of the Act, pertinent
provisions of which are attached as Exhibit "B" hereto. This
summary and Exhibit B should be reviewed carefully by any
shareholder who wishes to exercise dissenter's rights or who
wishes to preserve his or her rights to do so, since failure to
comply with the procedures set forth below will result in the
loss of such rights.
Any Shareholders electing to exercise his or her right to
dissent from the Reorganization and have the Company purchase
some or all of his or her shares for cash must, as to those
shares ("Dissenting Shares") satisfy each of the following
requirements:
1. A dissenting Shareholder shall cause the Company to
receive, before any vote is taken, written notice of that
Shareholder's intention to demand payment for the Shareholder's
shares if the proposed corporate action is effectuated; and
2. Not vote the shares in favor of the Plan of
Reorganization.

and (2) above is not entitled to demand payment for the
Shareholder's shares under Chapter 92A. For further detailed

hereto.

of ownership by the Company Shareholders as they had before said
issuance; or (ii) in the event Public Company does not issue
additional shares to satisfy the Subsequent Liabilities, shares
equal to the amount of the Subsequent Liabilities, with a market
value at bid price, will be issued to the Company Shareholders.

assignment, transfer or hypothecation of all or any part thereof
and that the certificates representing the Exchange Shares will
bear a restrictive legend which states in effect that such shares
have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as

SUARRO COMMUNICATIONS, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
(1) Organization
Suarro Communications, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated on March 1,
1996 under the laws of the State of Texas. The Company was formed as
a consolidation vehicle for the purpose of delivering cost effective
national on-line business services and products through the Internet.
The Company acquired proprietary telecommunication products developed
for the Internet from the two common stock shareholders. The Company
is in the process of initiating the marketing of its first product,
Annual Reports On-Line, as well as other Internet related products.
To date there have been no sales orders.
(2) Proprietary Telecommunication and Internet Costs
The costs of developing the proprietary telecommunication and Internet
products were incurred prior to incorporation of the Company. Material
and contract services totaling $141,382 were paid by two individuals
or their wholly-owned company. In addition, the shareholders valued
their personal time in producing the technology at $208,000. Upon
incorporation, the Company recorded as an asset, $349,382 of purchased
proprietary telecommunication and Internet costs acquired from the two
individuals by issuing 300,000 shares of common stock.
The cost of proprietary telecommunication and Internet costs will be
amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic lives
of the respective products.
(3) Development Stage Operations
The Company is currently in the developmental stage and has no
significant operations to date.
(4) Preferred Stock
On March 8, 1996, the Company issued 500 shares of preferred stock for
$50,000. In addition, the Company had a commitment from the preferred
shareholder to purchase an additional $450,000 shares of preferred
stock. On March 15, 1996, the Company returned the $50,000 received
for the preferred stock and canceled the preferred stock. The
commitment by the preferred stockholder to purchase an additional
$450,000 of preferred stock was also canceled.
SUARRO COMMUNICATIONS, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
(5) Going Concern
The Company is a newly organized development stage corporation that has
not commenced operations as of March 15, 1996; therefore, it has not
incurred a profit or a loss. This factor, together with its limited
capital, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to
continue its operations without successful development and marketing
of the Company's products and the procurement of additional financing.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the
assumption that the Company will continue in business, which
contemplates the realization of assets through continuing operations.
No adjustments have been made to reflect potentially lower realizable
value of assets should the Company be unable to continue its
operations, as the outcome of the above matter is not currently
determinable.
