PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY HIGHLIGHTS SELECTED INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS
PROSPECTUS. THIS SUMMARY DOES NOT CONTAIN ALL THE INFORMATION YOU SHOULD
CONSIDER BEFORE INVESTING IN OUR SECURITIES. BEFORE MAKING AN INVESTMENT
DECISION, YOU SHOULD READ THE ENTIRE PROSPECTUS CAREFULLY, INCLUDING THE "RISK
FACTORS" SECTION, THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS.
Our Company
We are a provider of broadband wireless connectivity and application
services to the commercial vehicle industry. We are rolling out a low-cost
communications network combining a satellite backbone with Wireless Fidelity
("Wi-Fi") access points at strategic locations nationwide. The network allows us
to provide both productivity and cost reduction software applications to the
commercial vehicle industry and other users whose effectiveness "over-the-road"
requires affordable driver connectivity and in-vehicle access to software
productivity tools.
The industry we are targeting is principally composed of the fleet
owners and drivers of the approximately four million commercial trucks on US
highways that generate well in excess of $500 billion per year in revenues.
Currently, a relatively small percentage of these trucks utilize in-cab data
5
communications (short text messaging and GPS tracking), chiefly because these
solutions are expensive to install, feature costly variable service fees, and
offer no clearly stated return on investment. We believe that our low cost
network and suite of application solutions, combined with our subscription-based
business model, are better suited to address the industry's needs than previous
solutions.
Our patent-pending network infrastructure solution provides lower cost
and higher throughput connectivity when compared to other competing solutions.
The point-to-multipoint broadcast feature of our network provides considerable
cost-to-bandwidth efficiencies. As a result, our architecture transmits data at
speeds up to 20 to 100 times faster than other competing wireless solutions. To
date we have installed over 300 Wi-Fi "hot spots" at major truck stops and weigh
stations and have agreements with leading truck stop chains and weigh station
operators such as Pilot Travel Centers, Love's Travel Stops, Petro Truck Stops,
Freight and More/DIS and others, to install access points at approximately 450
additional sites.
We offer broadband internet access ("ISP") to our customers as well as
value added applications for the commercial transportation industry which reduce
costs and improve productivity for fleet operators. Our product and service
offerings include:
InTouch(TM). We formally launched our ISP service in December 2004.
InTouch(TM) delivers wireless broadband connectivity for both
commercial and non-commercial drivers nationwide through daily,
monthly, or annual subscriptions.
Idling Solutions. Through an exclusive agreement with Idling Solutions,
LLC we provide data connectivity for one of the most innovative fuel
conservation and anti-pollution systems available to the trucking
industry. Through a monthly subscription we will wirelessly extract and
transmit data from each of the Idling Solutions-equipped vehicles to
the Idling Solutions data center. With the data we deliver, Idling
Solutions monitors the performance of its product and calculates
Mobile-source Emissions Reduction Credits. We currently have an
expression of interest from Idling Solutions for a 50,000 unit order,
however, there is no assurance that Idling Solutions will complete the
purchase of 50,000 units.
Other Applications
- Pulse(TM). Our Pulse(TM) Box is able to extract from the
truck, and wirelessly transmit to the fleet manager, key
vehicle diagnostic data, driver behavior information, as well
as Global Positioning (GPS) data. Pulse(TM) has significant
cost reduction implications for fleets in areas such as
maintenance, accident reduction, fuel efficiency, out of route
miles, and fuel tax.
- Beacon(TM). Beacon(TM) includes a suite of software
applications (e.g., e-logbook, e-freight bill, etc.) that
operate on a Wi-Fi enabled Personal Digital Assistant. We
estimate that fleets may realize cost reductions of up to $300
per truck per month using these applications. We believe this
system will enable fleets, for the first time, to economically
utilize significant computing power and broadband wireless
Internet connectivity in the cabs of their trucks.
- i-Link. The i-Link service is designed to prevent fuel
purchase fraud while increasing fuel island throughput at
truck stops. This service is in beta testing in a major fleet,
and we believe that it has the potential to be the most widely
adopted and greatest revenue producing application launched on
the SiriCOMM network.
We market our products and services principally through assorted value
added reseller agreements and a direct sales force. As the trucking industry is
highly fragmented and comprises many small to medium-sized fleets, we use
numerous resellers to maximize our sales reach. Our direct sales force is
focused on the large fleets as well as coordinating the efforts of our value
added resellers. Currently we are continuing to concentrate our sales efforts on
InTouch(TM) while installing additional hot spots across the country. Sales of
Pulse and Beacon will commence once nationwide network density reaches 400-500
sites.
6
Our senior management team, led by CEO Henry (Hank) Hoffman and
composed primarily of the founders of the Company, has significant experience in
both the transportation and communications industries.
We were incorporated as a Delaware corporation under the name DFW
Technologies, Inc., in March 1989. In 1992, DFW Technologies, Inc. changed their
name to Fountain Pharmaceuticals, Inc. In approximately November 2002, the
shareholders of SiriCOMM, Inc., a privately-held Missouri corporation,
incorporated in 2000 ("SiriCOMM Missouri"), exchanged all of the issued and
outstanding common stock of SiriCOMM Missouri for a controlling interest in
Fountain Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "Reverse Transaction"). As part of the
Reverse Transaction, all of the then officers and directors of Fountain
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. resigned and were replaced by persons designated by
SiriCOMM Missouri and the name of Fountain Pharmaceuticals, Inc. was changed to
SiriCOMM, Inc. As a result of the Reverse Transaction, SiriCOMM Missouri became
a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the prior shareholders of SiriCOMM
Missouri became the controlling shareholders, officers and directors of the
Company. The Company and SiriCOMM Missouri are hereinafter collectively referred
to as the "Company."
Our corporate address is 2900 Davis Boulevard, Suite 130, Joplin,
Missouri 64804, and our telephone number is 417-626-9971 and our fax number is
417-782-0475.
Summary of the Offering
As of January 31, 2006, we consummated a private placement of units
pursuant to a Confidential Private Placement Memorandum, dated December 6, 2005
and supplemented on January 23, 2006. Each unit consisted of one share of common
stock and one redeemable common stock purchase warrant. As part of the private
placement, we sold an aggregate of 4,692,263 units (4,692,263 shares and
4,692,263 warrants) for an aggregate purchase price of $5,396,610.45 or $1.15
per unit. The warrants entitle the holders to purchase shares of the common
stock for a period of five years from the date of issuance at an exercise price
of $1.50 per share. The warrants contain certain anti-dilution rights and are
redeemable by us, on terms specified in the warrants.
Sunflower Capital, LLC, a limited liability company managed by William
P. Moore, a director of the Company, purchased an aggregate of 1,764,872 units
in the offering, which consisted of a new investment of $1,525,000 to purchase
1,326,087 units and the conversion of a $500,000 promissory note plus accrued
interest in the amount of $4,602 to purchase 438,785 units.
In connection with the private placement, Sanders Morris Harris, Inc.,
the placement agent in the private placement, received a commission equal to 5%
of the offering price of the units sold by them in the private placement, a
commission equal to 2 1/2% on the 1,764,872 units by Sunflower Capital and a
financial advisory fee equal to 2% of the offering price of the units sold in
the private placement and a warrant to purchase 234,613 shares of common stock,
or 5% of the units sold in the private placement. The warrants are exercisable
for a period of five years at an exercise price of $1.15 per share and contain
the same anti-dilution rights as the common stock warrant issued in the January
2006 private placement.
On December 27, 2005, we entered into a loan agreement with Sunflower.
The loan was in the principal amount of $500,000 which was converted into
438,785 units of the January 2006 private placement as discussed above. As
consideration for Sunflower making the loan, we issued to Sunflower a warrant to
purchase 200,000 shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable at $1.26
per share and expire on December 15, 2010. We are registering the 200,000 shares
underlying this warrant.
On September 21, 2005 we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of
200,000 shares of common stock to Messrs. Clark Burns and Philip Snowden
pursuant to a finder's agreement dated November 14, 2003, between SiriCOMM and
Messrs. Burns and Snowden. We are registering the 200,000 shares of common stock
underlying these warrants pursuant to the terms of the finder's agreement.
On July 8, 2005, we issued 15,000 shares of common stock and warrants
to purchase 20,000 shares of common stock to Interactive Resource Group ("IRG")
pursuant to a consulting agreement. The warrants are exercisable for four (4)
years and have varying exercise prices , 10,000 at $2.50, 5,000 at $3.00 and 5,
000 at $4.00. We are registering herein the 15,000 shares and the 20,000 shares
underlying the warrants.
7
We are also registering 50,000 shares of common stock and 50,000 shares
underlying warrants issued to IRG pursuant to a consulting agreement dated
November 30, 2005. The warrants are exercisable for four (4) years and have
varying exercise prices, 16,666 at $1.25, 166,667 at $1.35 and 16,667 at $1.45.

RISK FACTORS
THIS INVESTMENT INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. BEFORE YOU INVEST YOU SHOULD
CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES DESCRIBED BELOW AND THE OTHER
INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS. IF ANY OF THE FOLLOWING RISKS ARE REALIZED, OUR
BUSINESS, OPERATING RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION COULD BE HARMED AND THE
VALUE OF OUR STOCK COULD GO DOWN. THIS MEANS YOU COULD LOSE ALL OR A PART OF
YOUR INVESTMENT.
Risks Related to Our Business
Because we have a limited operating history, you may not be able to accurately
evaluate our operations.
We have had limited operations to date and have never generated meaningful
revenue. Therefore, we have a limited operating history upon which to evaluate
the merits of investing in the Company. Because we are in the early stages of
operating our business, we are subject to many of the same risks inherent in the
operation of a business with a limited operating history, including the
potential inability to continue as a going concern.
We are dependent on outside financing for continuation of our operations.
Because we have never generated meaningful revenue and currently operate at a
loss, we are completely dependent on the continued availability of financing in
order to continue our business. There can be no assurance that financing
sufficient to enable us to continue our operations will be available to us in
the future. Our failure to obtain future financing or to produce levels of
revenue to meet our financial needs could result in our inability to continue as
a going concern and, as a result, investors in the Company could lose their
entire investment.
SiriCOMM launched its initial product for commercialization in December 2004 and
there can be no assurance that our products will be accepted by potential
customers.
Since our founding in 2000, we have invested nearly seven million dollars in our
business plan and into the development of infrastructure. However, we only
recently commenced marketing our initial product offering, InTouch(TM) internet
service, in December 2004. There can be no assurance that our target market of
prospective customers will commercially accept our products. A failure to gain a
certain level of acceptance in the market may result in a level insufficient for
us to generate a profit and sustain our business activities.
SiriCOMM requires significant additional capital to complete the installation of
its national Network and these funds may not be available when we need them.
The Company's Network (defined below) became operational in October 2004, is
only partially built, and significant capital is required by the Company to
install the number of WLAN site locations which the Company believes are
required to offer a robust national business service to its target market. While
the Company believes it has adequate capital to install up to 750 additional
sites, there can be no assurance that the capital will be available when it is
needed. If such capital is not available, there can be no assurance that the
Network, as it is currently installed in 38 states, is sufficiently dense or
nationally robust enough to have functional utility to its target market. If
these funds are not available when we need them, we will be required to raise
additional capital, which there can be no assurance that such capital will be
available and we may need to change our business strategy and limit the
expansion of our Network, which would limit its functional utility and thus our
ability to develop our business in the manner intended.
We compete with large, well-capitalized companies.
While we believe that there are currently no direct competitors in the trucking
or highway wireless broadband market, the overlapping mobile wireless broadband
industry is dominated by several large, well-capitalized companies such as
Qualcomm and PeopleNet. Several of these entities have greater financial
resources than us and as a result, we may not be able to invest comparable
levels of funding into our business. There can be no assurance that we will be
9
successful in establishing the credibility, products and services and financial
position necessary to successfully compete against these large, well-established
competitors. A failure to do so could mean that we will perform substantially
below our expectations and that investors in the Company could lose some or all
of their investment. Furthermore, existing competitors may grow their business,
and new competition may enter the market over time, all of which may increase
competition and our ability to be successful in our industry.
Our industry is characterized by rapidly changing technology.
The mobile wireless broadband service industry is subject to rapid change and
evolution of the technology platforms, products and services available to
customers. There can be no assurance that either the suite of products and
services that we have developed are currently the most up-to-date and
competitively priced or that such products and services will not be made
obsolete as a result of the technology developments of competitors. A failure by
us to have, maintain and continue to develop or acquire leading edge technology
could mean that we will substantially under-perform versus our expectations and
thus have a materially detrimental effect on our business operations.
Our business model requires us to continually develop and augment our suite of
products through internal development and product acquisitions.
Our business model is dependent on our ability to augment our initial suite of
products and services with additional products and services important to
providing customers with an integrated communication and productivity suite of
products and services. There can be no assurance that we have either the ability
or resources to accomplish this, thus affecting our ability to develop a
profitable business enterprise. A failure to develop existing or additional
products and services or obtain additional products and services necessary to
maintain a productive suite of products and services may have a materially
detrimental effect on our business operations.
Our inability to recruit and retain qualified employees could cause our
financial condition to suffer.
We believe that we have recruited the nucleus of a solid management team,
however, due to our small size and thin capitalization, there can be no
assurance that we can retain our management team or that we can hire the
additional management and employees that we will need to employ as the Company
grows or to sustain such growth. Our inability to attract and retain qualified
employees could affect our ability to successfully implement our business plan
and expand our business.
We are heavily dependant on key personnel, and a loss of such personnel could
have a detrimental effect on our business.
We are highly dependent upon the efforts of our senior management team,
including our President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Henry P. Hoffman. The
loss of the services of one or more of these individuals might impede the
achievement of our development objectives. Because of the specialized nature of
our business, we are highly dependent upon our ability to attract and retain
qualified personnel. The loss of such key personnel could have a materially
detrimental effect on our business. We do not maintain key person insurance on
any employees' life.
Disruption of our services due to accidental or intentional security breaches
may harm our reputation, potentially causing a loss of sales and an increase in
our expenses.
A significant barrier to the growth of wireless data services or transactions on
the Internet or by other electronic means has been the need for secure
transmission of confidential information. Our systems could be disrupted by
unauthorized access, computer viruses and other accidental or intentional
actions. We may incur significant costs to protect against the threat of
security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by such breaches. If a third
party were able to misappropriate our users' personal or proprietary information
or credit card information, we could be subject to claims, litigation or other
potential liabilities that could materially adversely impact our revenue and
could result in the loss of customers.
10
There is no established market for our products and services; we may not be able
to sell enough of our services to become profitable.
The markets for wireless data and transaction services are not fully developed.
Continued growth in demand for, and acceptance of, these services remains
uncertain. Current barriers to market acceptance of these services include cost,
reliability, functionality and ease of use. We cannot determine with any
certainty whether these barriers will be overcome. Our competitors may develop
alternative wireless data communications systems that gain broader market
acceptance than our current and future systems. If the market for our services
does not grow, or grows more slowly than we currently anticipate, we may not be
able to attract and maintain customers and our financial condition would be
adversely affected.
Our strategic alliances may not deliver the value we paid or will pay for them.
We may incur excessive expenses if we do not successfully integrate our
strategic alliances or if the costs and management resources we expend in
connection with integration exceed our expectations. We expect that our
strategic alliances and any acquisitions and investments we may pursue in the
future will have a continuing, significant impact on our business, financial
condition and operating results. The value of the companies that we acquire or
invest in may be less than our estimates and our financial results may be
adversely affected if:
o we fail to assimilate the acquired assets with our
pre-existing business;
o our management's attention is diverted by other business
concerns; or
o we assume unanticipated liabilities related to the acquired
assets.
In addition, the companies we have acquired or invested in or may acquire or
invest in are subject to each of the business risks we describe in this section,
and such risks may affect the value of such acquisitions and investments.
Further, we cannot guarantee that we will realize the benefits or strategic
objectives we were seeking to obtain by acquiring, investing or partnering with
these companies.
We may not achieve profitability if we are unable to maintain, improve and
develop the wireless data services we offer. We believe that our future business
prospects depend in part on our ability to maintain and improve our current
services and to develop new products and services on a timely basis. Our
services will have to achieve market acceptance, maintain technological
competitiveness and meet an expanding range of customer requirements. As a
result of the complexities inherent in our service offerings, major new wireless
data services and service enhancements require long development and testing
periods. We may experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the
successful development, introduction or marketing of new services and service
enhancements. Additionally, our new services and service enhancements may not
achieve market acceptance. If we cannot effectively develop and improve
services, we may not be able to recover our fixed costs or otherwise become
profitable.
Any type of systems failure could reduce sales, increase costs or result in
claims of liability.
Any disruption from our satellite feeds or backup landline feeds could result in
delays in our subscribers' ability to receive information. We cannot be sure
that our systems will operate appropriately if we experience a hardware or
software failure or if there is an earthquake, fire or other natural disaster, a
power or telecommunications failure, intentional disruptions of service by third
parties, an act of God or an act of terrorism or war. A failure in our systems
could cause delays in transmitting data, and as a result we may lose customers
or face litigation that could involve substantial costs and distract management
from operating our business.
Failure of satellite(s) or loss of satellite capacity would materially and
adversely affect our network.
The operation of our network and our subscriber's ability to receive and
exchange information is dependent upon our continued access to satellite
transmission capacity and the proper performance of the satellite(s) utilized by
the Company. We have contracted with ViaSat, Inc., a California-based satellite
11
communications service provider ("ViaSat"), for satellite bandwidth capacity in
the Ku-band frequency range to support our network. While the Company's
satellite service may not be preempted by ViaSat to restore another customer's
service, in the event of a failure or significant disruption in the satellite
capacity provided by ViaSat, we would have to obtain alternative satellite
capacity rights. While we believe that in such an event we will be able to
obtain alternative satellite capacity, we do not currently have rights for
redundant capacity and there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain
such satellite capacity on terms favorable to us. Our inability to obtain
alternative satellite capacity in a timely manner, or on terms favorable to us
would have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.
A significant portion of our business is dependent upon relationships with three
customers.
We have deployed a network of SiriCOMM Wi-Fi spots at locations convenient to
highway travelers for wireless Internet access, which is currently the most
widely available Internet access network built for the highway transportation
market. The SiriCOMM Wi-Fi spots are located at participating Pilot locations,
select roadside weigh stations that feature PrePass(TM) ("PrePass") and
participating Love's locations. The Company's contracts with Pilot and Love's to
install and maintain these Wi-Fi spots may be terminated upon 90 days advance
notice. If Pilot or Love's terminate their contracts with us, we would
experience an immediate detrimental impact on our business, resulting in a
materially detrimental effect on our results of operations. The initial term of
our contract with ACS for the installation of 10 PrePass sites expired December
28, 2005 and all indications by ACS have been to the effect that SiriCOMM has
complied with the terms as so stated. The Company is currently in discussions
with ACS to extend its contract and to significantly expand the number of
PrePass site installations. While the Company expects that such an extension of
the ACS contract will be entered into, there can be no assurance that such
contract extension will be consummated on terms acceptable to the Company or for
the number of additional sites anticipated. Failure to successfully extend the
ACS contract on these terms would materially and adversely affect the Company's
ability to expand its network as currently anticipated.
If we fail to comply with the new rules under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act related to
accounting controls and procedures, or if material weaknesses or other
deficiencies are discovered in our internal accounting procedures, our stock
price could decline significantly.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires annual management assessments of
the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and a report
by our independent auditors addressing these assessments. We are in the process
of documenting and testing our internal control procedures, and we may identify
material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and other
deficiencies. If material weaknesses and deficiencies are detected, it could
cause investors to lose confidence in our Company and result in a decline in our
stock price and consequently affect our financial condition. In addition, if we
fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we may not
be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have
effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section
404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Moreover, effective internal controls,
particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to
produce reliable financial reports and are important to helping prevent
financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent
fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose
confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our
Common Stock could drop significantly. In addition, we cannot be certain that
additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal
controls will not be discovered in the future.
New laws and regulations that impact our industry could increase our costs or
reduce our opportunities to earn revenue.
We are not currently subject to direct regulation by the Federal Communications
Commission (the "FCC") or any other governmental agency, other than regulations
applicable to publicly traded Delaware corporations of similar size that are
headquartered in Missouri. However, in the future, we may become subject to
regulation by the FCC or other state and federal agencies. In addition, the
wireless carriers that supply us airtime and certain of our hardware suppliers
are subject to regulation by the FCC and regulations that affect them could
increase our costs or reduce our ability to continue selling and supporting our
services.
12
A pending lawsuit, if successful, could have an adverse effect on our financial
condition and business operations.
On December 17, 2004, Henry Hoffman, Kory Dillman, David Mendez, Tom Noland,
Richard Iler and Terry Thompson were named defendants in a lawsuit entitled Greg
Sanders v. Henry Hoffman et al. Messrs. Hoffman, Dillman, Mendez and Iler are
officers and directors of the Company, Mr. Thompson is a director of the Company
and Mr. Noland is a former officer and director of the Company. The action was
brought in the Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri at Kansas City
(04CV236387). The action alleges fraud, misrepresentation and breach of
fiduciary duty relating to a settlement agreement entered into between the
Company and Mr. Sanders. The Company was not a party to this lawsuit. The
complaint seeks damages in excess of $9,679,903. The defendants' filed a motion
to dismiss which was denied by the Court. The defendants have subsequently filed
counter claims against the plaintiff as part of their answer on August 18, 2005.
Subsequently on February 8, 2006 the Plaintiff sought to amend the complaint to
add the Company as a defendant. The Company has filed a motion in opposition of
this petition. The Company will pay all expenses relating to the defense of this
matter. In management's opinion this case is without merit and the defendants
intend on defending this matter vigorously.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
Our common stock has experienced volatility in the past, and may experience
significant volatility in the future, which substantially increases the risk of
loss to persons owning our common stock
Because of the limited trading market for our common stock, and because of the
significant price volatility, stockholders may not be able to sell their shares
of common stock when they desire to do so. In 2004, our stock price ranged from
a high of $6.00 to a low of $.95, and in 2005, our stock price ranged from a
high of $4.30 to a low of $1.15. The inability to sell shares in a rapidly
declining market may substantially increase the risk of loss as a result of such
illiquidity and the price for our common stock may suffer greater declines due
to its price volatility.
Our common stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, which may be detrimental
to investors
Our shares of common stock are currently traded on the OTC Bulletin Board.
Stocks traded on the OTC Bulletin Board generally have limited trading volume
and exhibit a wide spread between the bid/ask quotations. We cannot predict
whether a more active market for our stock will develop in the future. In the
absence of an active trading market:
o investors may have difficulty buying and selling our common
stock or obtaining market quotations;
o market visibility for our common stock may be limited; and
o a lack of visibility for our common stock may have a
depressive effect on the market price for our common stock.
Our common stock is subject to penny stock rules, which may be detrimental to
investors
Our common stock is subject to Rule 15g-1 through 15g-9 under the Exchange Act,
which imposes certain sales practice requirements on broker-dealers which sell
our common stock to persons other than established customers and "accredited
investors" (generally, individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or
annual incomes exceeding $200,000 (or $300,000 together with their spouses)).
For transactions covered by this rule, a broker-dealer must make a special
suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser's
written consent to the transaction prior to the sale.
This rule adversely affects the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common
stock and purchasers of our common stock to sell their shares of such common
stock. Additionally, our common stock is subject to SEC regulations for "penny
stock." Penny stock includes any non-Nasdaq equity security that has a market
price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. The
regulations require that prior to any non-exempt buy/sell transaction in a penny
stock, a disclosure schedule set forth by the SEC relating to the penny stock
market must be delivered to the purchaser of such penny stock. This disclosure
must include the amount of commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the
registered representative and current price quotations for the common stock. The
regulations also require that monthly statements be sent to holders of penny
stock that disclose recent price information for the penny stock and information
of the limited market for penny stocks. These requirements adversely affect the
market liquidity of our common stock.
13
USE OF PROCEEDS
This prospectus relates to 10,154,139 shares of our common stock, which may be
sold from time to time by the selling shareholders. We will not receive any part
of the proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling shareholders. If
all warrants are fully exercised, we will receive approximately $7,987,700 in
cash from the warrant holders. Any proceeds received by us from the exercise of
the warrants will be used by us for general corporate purposes.
MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS
Market Information
Our common stock presently trades on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol
"SIRC." From May 31, 1994 until November 21, 2002 our predecessor's common stock
traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "FPHI."
As of February 21, 2006, we had 24,913,713 outstanding shares of common stock,

Fiscal Year 2006 First Quarter $1.65 $0.99
The closing price of our common stock on February 13, 2006 was $2.06.
The high and low prices are based on the average bid and ask prices for common
stock, as reported by the OTC Bulletin Board. Such prices are inter-dealer
prices without retail mark-ups, mark-downs or commissions and may not represent
actual transactions.
Shareholders
Records of our stock transfer agent indicate that as of February 21, 2006, we
had 145 record holders of our common stock. Since a significant number of our
shares are held by financial institutions in "street name," it is likely that we
have significantly more stockholders than indicated above. We estimate that we
have approximately 1,000 beneficial holders, including such shares held in
"street name."

Dividend Policy
Our board of directors determines any payment of dividends. We have never
declared or paid any cash dividends, and we do not anticipate or contemplate
paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. It is our Board of Directors
intention to utilize all available funds for working capital of SiriCOMM.
BUSINESS
Introduction. SiriCOMM is an application service provider specializing in
wireless Internet connectivity and productivity applications tailored to the
highway transportation industry. The company is guided by its mission of helping
truck fleets to improve productivity, reduce costs, increase safety, and
strengthen security. To achieve that goal, SiriCOMM has deployed a network of
SiriCOMM Wi-Fi hot spots at locations convenient to highway travelers.
SiriCOMM's proprietary network, the foundation for its applications, delivers
wireless broadband connectivity by what management believes to be a fraction of
the cost of conventional wireless networks. By providing both Internet access
and a robust application host platform, SiriCOMM delivers a more responsive and
convenient way for all industry stakeholders to interact with information needed
on a regular basis.
Presently, SiriCOMM's network is the most widely available wireless Internet
access network built for the highway transportation market. To date we have
installed over 300 Wi-Fi "hot spots" at major truck stops and weigh stations and
have agreements with leading truck stop chains and weigh station operators such
as Pilot Travel Centers ("Pilot"), Love's Travel Stops ("Loves"), Petro Truck
Stops ( "Petro"), Freight and More, Inc./DIS - Direct Internet Services and
others to install access points at approximately 450 additional sites.
The Company's network technology is built upon a distributed server model that
uses satellite for data backhaul. This architecture provides key advantages: 1)
the network is truly go-anywhere and operates independently of any
terrestrial-based communication infrastructure; 2) the satellite multicast
features allows data to be simultaneously available at all SiriCOMM Wi-Fi hot
spots; 3) bandwidth management is handled from a single location as opposed to
multiple points that would be required by a nationwide terrestrial network; 4)
the remote server makes each hot spot an extension of fleet operations; and, 5)
proprietary technologies mitigate inherent weaknesses found in conventional
satellite networks.
SiriCOMM completed phase one installations in 2004 and opened the network for
business in December 2004. Initially, network access subscriptions were limited
to only credit card sales through the company's web site. By June 2005 Pilot
began offering cash point of sales (POS) subscriptions at its in-store
registers.
We market our products and services principally through assorted value added
reseller agreements and a direct sales force. As the trucking industry is highly
fragmented and comprises many small to medium-sized fleets, we use numerous
resellers to maximize our sales reach. Our direct sales force is focused on the
large fleets as well as coordinating the efforts of our value added resellers.
Currently we are continuing to concentrate our sales efforts on InTouch(TM)
while installing additional hot spots across the country. Sales of Pulse and
Beacon will commence once nationwide network density reaches 400-500 sites.
Our senior management team, led by CEO Henry (Hank) Hoffman and composed
primarily of the founders of the Company, has significant experience in both the
transportation and communications industries.
We were incorporated as a Delaware corporation under the name DFW Technologies,
Inc., Inc., in March 1989. In 1992, DFW Technologies, Inc. changed their name to
Fountain Pharmaceuticals, Inc. In approximately November 2002, the shareholders
of SiriCOMM, Inc., a privately-held Missouri corporation, incorporated in 2000
("SiriCOMM Missouri"), exchanged all of the issued and outstanding common stock
of SiriCOMM Missouri for a controlling interest in Fountain Pharmaceuticals,
Inc. (the "Reverse Transaction"). As part of the Reverse Transaction, all of the
then officers and directors of Fountain Pharmaceuticals, Inc. resigned and were
replaced by persons designated by SiriCOMM Missouri and the name of Fountain
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. was changed to SiriCOMM, Inc. As a result of the Reverse
Transaction, SiriCOMM Missouri became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company
and the prior shareholders of SiriCOMM Missouri became the controlling
shareholders, officers and directors of the Company.
15
Our corporate address is 2900 Davis Boulevard, Suite 130, Joplin, Missouri
64804, our telephone number is 417-626-9971, and our fax number is 417-782-0475.
The Network.
There are four key components to SiriCOMM's network architecture--the wireless
local area network (WLAN), the remote server (RS), the satellite communication
link, and the Hub server (the "Network"). SiriCOMM believes it is unique in that
these proven technologies have never before been integrated into such an
end-to-end solution. Internet protocol data is transmitted from the Hub across
the satellite system to each WLAN using technologies that optimize network
performance. As a result, customers enjoy wireless Internet access at locations
convenient to highway travel.
The network is made up of a series of connected wireless local area networks
that serve as "hot spots." Each hot spot is installed at optimal, high density
locations near Interstate and secondary highway systems. Every WLAN hot spot
consists of Wi-Fi technology and a dedicated proxy server (RS) and is connected
by satellite uplink to the Company's central Hub data server. The complete
network provides subscribers with wireless access to the Internet and a robust
host platform of application services. Each hot spot involves a capital cost of
approximately $4,000.
SiriCOMM's satellite link is secured through an agreement with ViaSat. SiriCOMM
selected ViaSat's LinkStar product, which uses Ku-band to enable wideband
transmission of IP-based data between the remote servers and the Hub. ViaSat's
service, when combined with SiriCOMM's proprietary database replication
technologies, maximizes the capacity of the satellite bandwidth, creating an
optimized wide-area network communication channel. As a result, the system
provides greater bandwidth-to-cost ratios when compared to any other
communications options.
SiriCOMM's proprietary RS incorporates the functions of router, caching-proxy
server, video-on-demand server, and web server into a single compact package.
The RS stations are custom-built computers running a custom operating system
based on the BSD 5.2 kernel (Unix). The servers are designed for reliable,
unattended 24x7 operation and feature mechanisms that enhance reliability. The
operating firmware runs from nonvolatile solid-state memory, not a mechanical
hard disk, which enables the servers to be remotely and completely reformatted
from SiriCOMM's Network Operations Center (NOC). The unique design features of
the RS and capacity of the system provide substantial opportunity for future
applications to include pay-per-view video, audio file downloading, fleet
intranet hosting, distance learning, and much more.
The system is designed to simplify the customer experience. Any computer or
hand-held device with a standard 802.11 wireless device can connect to the hot
spot. Once connected, the company's web site presents a simple e-commerce
subscription form. Once subscribed, the Company's proprietary MAC filter
automates access to the network. Each hot spot is installed to provide adequate
coverage over the entire location partner's property. When connected to the hot
spot, subscribers enjoy always-on wireless Internet access.
To date, hot spots have been installed at 272 Pilot Travel Centers locations, 14
Love's Travel Stops, 9 roadside weigh stations that feature PrePass, 1 Celadon
Trucking terminal, 1 J.B. Hunt fleet terminal, and 1 independent travel center,
as well as various test sites throughout the country. Additionally, the company
has entered into an agreement with Love's Travel Stops and Country Stores and
Petro to install network service in each of its 110 travel stops and 66 travel
stops respectively across the country. These sites, taken together, are intended
to give the Company its initial network presence of 400 sites by early 2006,
with a target of nearly 1000 sites by year-end 2006.
On December 28, 2004, the Company entered into a memorandum of understanding
with ACS State and Local Solutions, Inc. ("ACS") regarding a pilot project to
assess the value and service delivery capacity for our network services at ACS's
PrePass weigh station sites. The Company has successfully installed network
systems at 9 PrePass sites and 1 operations center, and anticipates that ACS
will allow the Company to install its hot spots at the remaining 244 PrePass
sites.
With its Hub (located in Overland Park, KS) and satellite interfaces all in
place and the first 255 hot spots installed, the Network was "switched on" for
commercial use as of October 1, 2004 and has since been operational and
available for customer use. As of the date of this Memorandum the Company has
280 hot spots installed and operational. By the end of calendar 2006 the Company
16
plans to complete the installation of approximately 730 additional hot spots,
although presently the Company has not yet identified sites beyond the
approximately 450 sites under contract for these additional hot spots. The
Company believes that 1,000 hot spots will provide sufficient density for truck
fleet customers to view the service as a reliable means for communicating with
drivers. The Company has not yet identified locations for the additional hot
spots and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify
such additional locations, although a finalized agreement with ACS/PrePass would
bring it to the desired 1000 hot spots.
SiriCOMM's Initial Target Markets. With a national Network presence, the
Company's market of opportunity includes the commercial trucking industry,
federal and state law enforcement, recreation vehicles, mobile sales forces, and
the general driving public.
While the Company's early sales have been focused almost entirely upon Internet
connectivity (InTouch(TM)) for individual subscribers, the completion of 400+
hot spot installation will enable sales to shift to the two primary
markets--commercial truck fleets and government law enforcement agencies.
Trucking. The United States trucking industry has over 500,000 fleets employing
over 3.4 million drivers (by definition, a fleet is one or more trucks with a
U.S. Department of Transportation issued motor carrier number). Management
estimates that only 10% of trucks on the road today utilize in-cab data
communications because current solutions are expensive to install, feature
variable monthly service fees, and offer no clearly stated return on investment.
SiriCOMM's products and services offer fleet owners low up-front costs, fixed
monthly fees and verifiable returns on investment.
To provide these returns on investment, SiriCOMM's solution combines (i)
affordable basic wireless Internet access coupled with (ii) a suite of initial
products and services, some proprietary to the Company and others developed by
third-parties where the Company has forged an alliance (the "Strategic
Alliances"). These products and services address problems that have plagued the
industry for decades through proprietary software that enables paperless
shipping documents with signature capture, paperless driver logs, fuel
purchasing oversight, electronic vehicle performance data, decision support
tools, and other two-way, wireless communications opportunities.
Government. The Company believes that it has a significant business opportunity
with both state and local highway and traffic authorities as well as,
potentially, the Office of Home Land Security--especially if its hot spots are
authorized for points of entry into the US.
Products and Services. SiriCOMM's business model is a subscription-based
customer access model where individual, business and governmental customers will
pay monthly Network access fees to subscribe for various services. The Company
plans to provide the services through a combination of: (i) proprietary
application specific products developed by the Company which are accessible by
customers via the Network and (ii) other products and services developed by
others that require Network access for delivery to the user.
These products and services fall generically into two categories:
Basic Internet Access. Certain of the Company's target market customers
will seek to subscribe to the Company's service solely to gain access
to the Internet. These target market customers are likely to be
independent truckers and others in the private sector, who seeks only
basic email and informational access afforded by the Internet. For this
portion of its target market, the Company offers InTouch(TM) ISP
service. Depending on the customer, its size and number of users, the
Company seeks a target monthly retail subscription fee of $24.95 per
truck per month for basic Internet access.
Application Specific Productivity Software. Based on its management's
experience and judgment that next generation commercial vehicle cost
reductions and productivity improvements would come from driver-based
decision support tools. SiriCOMM was founded as a wireless application
service provider to supply productivity and cost reduction software
applications to the commercial vehicle industry. For this target market
segment, the Company has the following initial suite of proprietary
productivity software tools available (the "Proprietary Software
Productivity Tools"):
17
PULSE(TM): This is a passive wireless device connected to the
vehicle ECM (engine control module) that is programmed with
SiriCOMM software to provide trucking fleet operators with:
o Wireless, remote vehicle diagnostics
o Driver performance diagnostics
o Global Positioning System coordinates
o Host platform for other functions
The Company will charge $9.95 per truck per month for basic
diagnostic information and $14.95 when GPS is included. The
PULSE device, wholesale priced between $200 and $300 based on
volume discount, can be installed OEM by truck manufacturers
or installed on existing trucks.
BEACON(TM): This proprietary software service has been
developed by the Company to address critical productivity
needs of the trucking industry - i.e., cost reduction,
productivity improvement, safety and security enhancements.
The Beacon(TM) package includes InTouch(TM) and, when bundled
with the Pulse(TM) product, enables substantially greater
functionality. The initial suite of applications within Beacon
includes:
E-freight bill E-maintenance tracking
E-fuel network purchasing E-Pay settlement
E-load finder E-logbook
E-driver referral
The monthly subscription of $49.95 per truck per month
includes access to the entire suite of software (above),
unlimited Internet access (InTouch(TM)). Based upon actual
fleet information, the Company's Cost Justification Model can
demonstrate expected savings of approximately $300 per truck
per month. In addition, the Beacon platform can easily support
expansion for other revenue opportunities to include:
o pay-per-view movies
o advertising
o networked gaming
o distance learning, etc.
No estimates have been made by management as to potential
revenues which might be realized from such sources.
Fleet Private Network: (fleet intranet) This hosting service
utilizes existing capabilities built into the RS to extend
fleet operations to each hot spot. Fleets may post their
secure fleet intranet sites. The hosting fee will be based
upon the fleet's total monthly storage requirements. Fleet
drivers will be required to have an InTouch(TM) subscription
to access their secure intranet site.
Sales and Marketing. With its Network in place and operational in 38 states, the
Company believes that the sales and marketing initiatives that it has undertaken
while the Network was being installed will begin to generate substantial
revenue. These efforts are two-pronged as follows:
Direct Sales. To market and sell its Proprietary Software Productivity
Tools, the Company employs its own direct sales force. This direct
sales force is primarily (i) marketing to the nation's larger
commercial trucking fleet operators and (ii) following up in an effort
to up-sell selected customers originated by the Company's sales and
marketing alliance partners.
Alliance Partners/VAR's. The Company has succeeded in establishing,
among others, the following sales and marketing alliance
partners/value-added resellers (VAR's) in an effort to telescope the
time period within which the Company and its Products and Services gain
traction in their Target Markets. These are:
18
Idling Solutions. Through an exclusive agreement with Idling
Solutions, LLC we provide data connectivity for one of the
most innovative fuel conservation and anti-pollution system
available to the trucking industry. Through a monthly
subscription we will wirelessly extract and transmit data from
each of the Idling Solutions-equipped vehicles to the Idling
Solutions data center. With the data we deliver, Idling
Solutions monitors the performance of its product and
calculates Mobile-source Emissions Reduction Credits. We
currently have an expression of interest from Idling Solutions
for a 50,000 unit order, however, there is no assurance that
Idling Solutions will complete the purchase of 50,000 units.
DriverTech. DriverTech, a Salt Lake City-based supplier of
ruggedized vehicle computers for the U.S. military, has signed
a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with the Company. The
MOU contemplates that, DriverTech's TruckPC, the commercial
version of its military product that is in wide use in Iraq
and Afghanistan, will use SiriCOMM's network as its primary
communications medium. In addition, DriverTech will be a
value-added reseller of SiriCOMM's BEACON(TM) products. The
Company expects to sign a definitive agreement with DriverTech
in the near future. The addition of BEACON(TM) gives TruckPC
far greater functionality and portability. Presently,
DriverTech has scheduled several major fleets, including Swift
Transportation, to beta test its product. Retail pricing for
the BEACON(TM) service is $49.95 while the connectivity only
subscription price is $29.95.
Others. In connection with its strategic Network location
agreements with Pilot, Love's, Petro and Freight and More/DIS
these alliance partners have also entered into VAR
arrangements with the Company to be resellers of the Company's
products and services. The company anticipates similar
arrangements as part of the services agreement with ACS.
SiriCOMM Outlook for Business Generation. SiriCOMM opened its Network for
customer use in December 2004. As indicated in the Terms of the Offering, the
Company believes that it will generate approximately $4.5 million in revenue for
the fiscal year ended September 2006 and $25 million for the fiscal year ended
September 2007. Based on its current costs of doing business and as such costs
are expected to increase as its business ramps up, the Company believes that it
should be operating profitably on a run-rate basis by the end of its fiscal 2006
year.
Competition. Based upon our business approach and pioneering technology, we
believe that there currently are no direct competitors in the trucking or
highway wireless Internet access market. However, competition is inevitable and
we believe existing entities as well as new entities will enter the marketplace.
Many of such entities will have substantially more funds, experience, employees
and other resources than us. As a result, no assurances can be given that we
will be able to compete with such entities. We, however, believe that we have
certain technological advantages, and our affordable productivity tools,
extensive industry experience, and patents pending present certain entry
barriers for potential competitors. Notwithstanding, there are several
competitors whose services "overlap" our service offerings to some extent. These
include Qualcomm, PeopleNet, PSTN-based WLAN providers, and wireless
telecommunications companies.
o Qualcomm. Qualcomm's satellite communications and tracking
system provides Global Positioning System (GPS) truck locating
and low bandwidth text messaging transmissions. Qualcomm
currently has approximately 425,000 units installed worldwide.
The system functions well, but offers limited benefits to
companies according to many subscribers. Our management
believes that this system is very costly to purchase, install,
and operate. There is a minimum monthly messaging fee and
additional charges per character when the minimum is exceeded.
o PeopleNet. PeopleNet provides web-based fleet communications
ranging from GPS tracking only to low bandwidth text, voice
and applications. PeopleNet operates on Aeris.Net's Microburst
service, a technology that uses underutilized portions of
partner cellular provider's channels to send and receive small
packets of data. For fleets electing to install the full suite
of equipment and services, PeopleNet offers several
applications similar to our applications. However, as it is a
low bandwidth solution it does not offer Internet, intranets,
or other applications requiring higher bandwidth. Equipment
19
costs and monthly service fees are comparatively high, though
somewhat less than Qualcomm, and equipment installation must
be performed at one of PeopleNet's hub facilities.
o PSTN-Based hot spot Providers. PSTN-based hot spot providers
are companies that install hot spots using public switched
telephone networks (PSTN), usually T-1 lines or digital
subscriber lines, for access to the Internet. These businesses
typically target business travelers with Internet and email
access in airports, coffee shops and hotel lobbies. For
example, Boingo, a nationwide hot spot aggregator, operates
hot spots in locations convenient to business travelers and
charges $21.95 per month for unlimited access. Though these
providers are identified as competition, we anticipate
developing roaming agreements with key identified hot spot
providers.
Government Regulation and Industry Standards
Our products and services are currently not regulated by the FCC or local
governments. The regulatory process in the United States can be time-consuming
and can require the expenditure of substantial resources. There is no assurance
that the FCC or state regulatory agencies will not seek to regulate the use of
frequencies utilized by our services or, if such services are regulated, grant
the requisite approvals for any of our products on a timely basis, or at all.
The failure of our products to comply, or delays in compliance, with the various
existing and evolving standards could negatively impact our ability to market
our products and services. United States and state regulations regarding the
manufacture and sale of modems and other data communications devices are subject
to future change. We cannot predict what impact, if any, such changes may have
on our business.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On December 17, 2004, Henry Hoffman, Kory Dillman, David Mendez, Tom Noland,
Richard Iler and Terry Thompson were named defendants in a lawsuit entitled Greg
Sanders v. Henry Hoffman et al. Messrs. Hoffman, Dillman, Mendez and Iler are
officers and directors of the Company, Mr. Thompson is a director of the Company
and Mr. Noland is a former officer and director of the Company. The action was
brought in the Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri at Kansas City
(04CV236387). The action alleges fraud, misrepresentation and breach of
fiduciary duty relating to a settlement agreement entered into between the
Company and Mr. Sanders. The Company was not a party to this lawsuit. The
complaint seeks damages in excess of $9,679,903. The defendants' filed a motion
to dismiss which was denied by the Court. The defendants have subsequently filed
counter claims against the plaintiff as part of their answer on August 18, 2005.
Subsequently on February 8, 2006 the Plaintiff sought to amend the complaint to
add the Company as a defendant. The Company has filed a motion in opposition of
this petition. The Company will pay all expenses relating to the defense of this
matter. In management's opinion this case is without merit and the defendants
intend on defending this matter vigorously.
We are not a party to any other legal or administrative proceedings.

operations should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the
related notes. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon
current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans,
objectives, expectations and intentions. Our actual results and the timing of

Background
SiriCOMM is an application service provider specializing in wireless Internet
connectivity and productivity applications tailored to the highway
transportation industry. The company is guided by its mission of helping truck
fleets to improve productivity, reduce costs, increase safety, and strengthen
security. To achieve that goal, SiriCOMM has deployed a network of SiriCOMM
Wi-Fi hot spots at locations convenient to highway travelers. SiriCOMM's
proprietary network, the foundation for its applications, delivers wireless
broadband connectivity at a fraction of the cost of conventional wireless
networks. By providing both Internet access and a robust application host
platform, SiriCOMM delivers a more responsive and convenient way for all
industry stakeholders to interact with information needed on a regular basis.
Presently, SiriCOMM's network is the most widely available wireless Internet
access network built for the highway transportation market. To date we have
installed over 300 Wi-Fi "hot spots" at major truck stops and weigh stations and
have agreements with leading truck stop chains and weigh station operators such
as Pilot Travel Centers ("Pilot"), Love's Travel Stops ("Loves"), Petro, Freight
and More, Inc./DIS - Direct Internet Services and others to install access
points at approximately 430 additional sites.
The Company's network technology is built upon a distributed server model that
uses satellite for data backhaul. This architecture provides key advantages: 1)
the network is truly go-anywhere and operates independently of any
terrestrial-based communication infrastructure; 2) the satellite multicast
features allows data to be simultaneously available at all SiriCOMM Wi-Fi hot
spots; 3) bandwidth management is handled from a single location as opposed to
multiple points that would be required by a nationwide terrestrial network; 4)
the remote server makes each hot spot an extension of fleet operations; and, 5)
proprietary technologies mitigate inherent weaknesses found in conventional
satellite networks.
SiriCOMM completed phase one installations in 2004 and opened the network for
business in December 2004. Initially, network access subscriptions were limited
to only credit card sales through the company's web site. By June 2005 Pilot
began offering cash point of sales (POS) subscriptions at its in-store
registers.
We market our products and services principally through assorted value added
reseller agreements and a direct sales force. As the trucking industry is highly
fragmented and comprises many small to medium-sized fleets, we use numerous
resellers to maximize our sales reach. Our direct sales force is focused on the
large fleets as well as coordinating the efforts of our value added resellers.
Currently we are continuing to concentrate our sales efforts on InTouch(TM)
while installing additional hot spots across the country. Sales of Pulse and
Beacon will commence once nationwide network density reaches 400-500 sites.
Our senior management team, led by CEO Henry (Hank) Hoffman and composed
primarily of the founders of the Company, has significant experience in both the
transportation and communications industries.
We were incorporated as a Delaware corporation under the name DFW Technologies,
Inc., Inc., in March 1989. In 1992, DFW Technologies, Inc. changed their name to
Fountain Pharmaceuticals, Inc. In approximately November 2002, the shareholders
of SiriCOMM, Inc., a privately-held Missouri corporation, incorporated in 2000
("SiriCOMM Missouri"), exchanged all of the issued and outstanding common stock
of SiriCOMM Missouri for a controlling interest in Fountain Pharmaceuticals,
Inc. (the "Reverse Transaction"). As part of the Reverse Transaction, all of the
then officers and directors of Fountain Pharmaceuticals, Inc. resigned and were
replaced by persons designated by SiriCOMM Missouri and the name of Fountain
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. was changed to SiriCOMM, Inc. As a result of the Reverse
Transaction, SiriCOMM Missouri became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company
and the prior shareholders of SiriCOMM Missouri became the controlling
shareholders, officers and directors of the Company.
Our corporate address is 2900 Davis Boulevard, Suite 130, Joplin, Missouri
64804, our telephone number is 417-626-9971, and our fax number is 417-782-0475.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation
of these financial statements requires us to make significant estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues,
expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We
evaluate our estimates, including those related to contingencies, on an ongoing
basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values
of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions.
We believe the following critical accounting policy, among others; involve the
more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our
consolidated financial statements:
The Company accounts for compensation costs associated with stock options and
warrants issued to non-employees using the fair-value based method prescribed by
Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 - Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.
The Company uses the trinomial options-pricing model to determine the fair value
of these instruments as well as to determine the values of options granted to
certain lenders by the principal stockholder. The following estimates are used
for grants in fiscal year 2006: Expected future volatility over the expected
lives of these instruments is estimated to mirror historical experience of 75%;
expected lives of 1-2 years is estimated based on management's judgment of the
time period by which these instruments will be exercised.
Information Relating To Forward-Looking Statements
When used in this Report on Form 10-QSB, the words "may," "will,"
"expect," "anticipate," "continue," "estimate," "intend," "plans", and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 regarding events, conditions and financial
trends which may affect the Company's future plans of operations, business
strategy, operating results and financial position. Such statements are not
guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties and
actual results may differ materially from those included within the
forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Such factors include,
among others: (i) the Company's ability to obtain additional sources of capital
to fund continuing operations; in the event it is unable to timely generate
revenues (ii) the Company's ability to retain existing or obtain additional
licensees who will act as distributors of its products; (iii) the Company's
ability to obtain additional patent protection for its technology; and (iv)
other economic, competitive and governmental factors affecting the Company's
operations, market, products and services. Additional factors are described in
the Company's other public reports and filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company
undertakes no obligation to publicly release the result of any revision of these
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date
they are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Fair Value of Equity Instruments
The valuation of certain items, including valuation of warrants or
restricted stock that may be offered as compensation for goods or services
received within its contracts, involve significant estimations with underlying
assumptions judgmentally determined. Warrants are valued using the most reliable
measure of fair value, such as the value of the goods or services rendered, if
obtainable, if such value is not readily obtainable, the valuation of warrants
and stock options are then based upon a trinomial valuation model, which
involves estimates of stock volatility, expected life of the instruments and
other assumptions. As the Company's stock is thinly traded, the amounts recorded
for equity instruments, which are based partly on historical pricing of the
Company's stock, are subject to the assumption used by management in determining
the fair value.

Results of Operations
For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2005, and 2004
Revenues
SiriCOMM generated revenues of $153,952 for the three months ending
December 31, 2005 while generating revenues of only $6,273 during the same
period ending December 31, 2004. Revenues were solely derived from the Company's
offering of its InTouch Internet service. Limited advertising has been conducted
to date and no assurances can be offered that the Company will generate future
revenues from the offering of the In Touch service.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses consist of product research and development
costs, general and administrative, selling, depreciation and amortization, as
well as amortization of long-term intangible assets. During the three months
ended December 31, 2005, net operating losses totaled $870,400 as compared to
net operating losses of $493,015 for the three months ended December 31, 2004.
The Company has increased its number of employees in accounting, software
development and customer service which has contributed to the increase in net
operating losses. These expenses are necessary to increase the Company's
infrastructure, support the InTouch service and improve the Company's
administration.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our General and Administrative expenses consist of corporate overhead
costs, administrative support, professional fees and amortization of prepaid
consulting fees. For the three months ending December 31, 2005, SiriCOMM's
general and administrative expenses totaled $326,100, or 31.8% of total
operating expenses, while for the three months ended, December 31, 2004 general
and administrative expenses totaled $150,193 or 30.1% of total operating
expenses. General and administrative expenses increased as a result of the
Company's engaging an investor relations and network maintenance costs which
contributed principally to the net operating loss.
Salaries
For the three months ending December 31, 2005, SiriCOMM incurred
salaries of $317,696, representing 31.0% of operating expenses, as compared to
$235,337, or 47.1%, of total operating expenses for the three months ended
December 31, 2004. The Company has increased its personnel in accounting and
customer support to operate its InTouch ISP service.
Satellite Access Fees
With the opening of the network for introduction of its InTouch
service, the Company will incur bandwidth costs associated with providing this
service and its other products. The contract with its satellite provider
provides for a fixed monthly cost per site which will increase as the Company
adds additional sites. Satellite access fees for the three months ending
December 31, 2005 were $246,543, or 24.1% of total operating expenses, as
compared to $93,870, or 18.8% of total operating expenses, for the three months
ending December 31, 2004. With the signing of an agreement with Sat-Net in
February 2005, the Company is now amortizing intangible satellite access that
was the benefit derived from this agreement. The Company expensed $126,009 as
the non-cash amortization for the three months ending December 31, 2005.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation expense was $127,291 for the three month period ending
December 31, 2005 as compared to $7,288 for the same period ending December 31,
2004 due to the increase in the network infrastructure.
23
Interest Expense
For the three months ending December 31, 2005, interest expense was
$10,477 as compared to $4,460 during the three months ended December 30, 2004.
The increase in interest expense is attributable to the Company increasing its
borrowing on its equipment line to $385,435 from $309,604 during the same period
ending December 31, 2004, and an increase in interest rates.
For the years ended September 30, 2005 and 2004
Revenues
SiriCOMM generated revenues of $193,741, for the fiscal year ending
September 30, 2005 while not generating any revenues during fiscal year 2004.
Revenues were solely derived from the Company's offering of its In Touch
Internet service. In late June, Pilot Travel Centers introduced the Company's In
Touch Service as a cash point of purchase transaction at the registers to
facilitate purchases. Previously, the Company was limited to accepting only
credit card purchases. Limited advertising has been conducted to date and no
assurances can be offered that the Company will generate any meaningful revenues
from the offering of the In Touch service in the future.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses consist of product research and development
costs, general and administrative, selling, depreciation and amortization, as
well as amortization of long-term prepaid assets as compared to the same period
in 2004.
During fiscal year 2005, net operating losses totaled $3,236,245 as
compared to net operating losses of $2,585,327 for 2004.
The Company has increased its number of employees in accounting,
software development and customer service which have contributed to the increase
in net operating losses. These expenses were necessary to build the Company's
infrastructure, support the In Touch service and improve the Company's Corporate
Governance.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our General and Administrative expenses consist of corporate overhead
costs, administrative support, professional fees and amortization of prepaid
consulting fees.
For fiscal year 2005, SiriCOMM's general and administrative expenses
totaled $1,199,045, or 35.0% of total operating expenses, while for 2004 general
and administrative expenses totaled $1,823,959 or 70.6% of total operating
expenses. For 2005 and 2004, $300,840 and $0, respectively, of general and
administrative expenses represents a non-cash vesting of consulting fees paid by
the issuance of stock which was granted in 2004. Accounting and legal fees
increased during 2005 by $105,865 due to the Company's filing of a Registration
Statement on Form SB-2.
Salaries
For fiscal year 2005, SiriCOMM incurred salaries of $1,112,889,
representing 32.4% of operating expenses, as compared to $663,115, or 25.6%, of
total operating expenses for 2004. The Company hired an additional nine
employees including a Controller since the same period ending September 30,
2004.
Satellite Access Fees
Satellite access fees have been incurred as a result of the Company's
launching its proprietary network, expenses were realized for fiscal year 2005
of $711,702 or 20.7% of operating expenses. The non-cash component of the
satellite access fees for fiscal year 2005 was $378,027. The Company had not yet
launched the Network, thus no satellite access fees had been incurred during
2004.
24
Research and Development
Research and development costs increased $23,810 during fiscal year
2005 to $50,260 compared to $26,450 for 2004. The 2004 costs were low compared
to 2005 due to a credit received for services from a consultant that is aiding
in the development of the wireless network.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation expense was $356,090 or 10.4% of operating expenses for
fiscal year 2005 as compared to $21,803 or 0.8% of operating expenses for 2004.
The increase is attributable to extensive expansion and installation of network
equipment.
Interest Expense
For fiscal year 2005, interest expense was $26,593 as compared to
$26,578 during 2004. The nominal change in interest expense is attributable to
the Company increasing its borrowing on its line of credit during 2005 but
conversely had paid other notes off during the latter part of 2004 and early in
2005.
The valuation of certain items, including valuation of warrants or
restricted stock that may be offered as compensation for goods or services
received within its contracts, involve significant estimations with underlying
assumptions judgmentally determined. Warrants are valued using the most reliable
measure of fair value, such as the value of the goods or services rendered, if
not obtainable, if such value is not readily obtainable, the valuation of
warrants and stock options are then based upon a trinomial valuation model,
which involves estimates of stock volatility, expected life of the instruments
and other assumptions. As the Company's stock is thinly traded, the amounts
recorded for equity instruments, which are based partly on historical pricing of
the Company's stock, are subject to the assumptions used by management in
determining the fair value.
Liquidity
We continue to finance our operations entirely from invested funds and
limited borrowing for capital expenditures. No assurances can be given that
revenues will increase sufficiently to cover operating expenses or that the
Company can continue to attract capital under terms favorable to it
shareholders.
As of December 31, 2005, our current assets including cash and cash
equivalents, investments, accounts receivables and other current assets amounted
to approximately $780,060. Current liabilities amounted to $1,349,158 and
include notes payable to Southwest Missouri Bank and Sunflower Capital, LLC,
accounts payable, accrued salaries, and other accrued expenses.
On February 13, 2006 we retired the note payable to Southwest Missouri
Bank by paying them $389,793, representing the principal and interest due under
the note on that date. This loan was secured by various assets of the Company
which were released upon making the payment.
On February 8, 2006 the Company opened a $500,000 line of credit with
Liberty Bank of Springfield, Missouri. The loan is secured by a six month
certificate of deposit, which earns interest at the rate of 4.25%, deposited
with Liberty Bank in the same amount. The interest rate on this line of credit
is 5.25% on the outstanding principal balance. The line of credit has a six
month term expiring on August 7, 2006.
To date, the Company has not take any advances under this line of
credit. The Company anticipates drawing against the line of credit when
necessary for general corporate purposes, including the purchase of additional
wireless equipment.
As an emerging wireless applications services provider, we are involved
in a number of business development projects, continued network installation and
general operating capital requirements that will continue to require external
capital to finance the Company as it introduces its applications within its
business model. No assurances can be given as to the industry's willingness to
purchase the Company's products or services.
25
As we continue to ramp-up our business and obtain new ISP contracts,
the Company believes that it has adequate liquidity and that we can achieve
profitability in 2006. The Company is dedicating its efforts currently to
building its Internet Service and growing its network site density in order to
facilitate the launch of its other planned software products.
Capital Resources
On December 27, 2005, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement with
Sunflower Capital, LLC. The loan is in the principal amount of $500,000 and is
evidenced by a Convertible Promissory Note due July 1, 2006. As consideration
for Sunflower making the loan, the Company issued to Sunflower a warrant to
purchase 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.26 per share. The
warrant expires December 15, 2010. The estimated fair value of the warrants
required a discount of $76,271 be recorded against the note. This discount will
be expensed over the life of the loan.
The Note mandatorily converts into the Company's units consisting of
one share of common stock and one redeemable common stock purchase warrant
exercisable at $1.50 per share during the period commencing on the date of
issuance and expiring five (5) years thereafter. As discussed below, the Note
converted into such units at the rate of $1.15 per unit on February 1, 2006.
On January 31, 2006, the Company consummated the private placement of
its securities pursuant to a Placement Agent Agreement entered into between it
and Sanders Morris Harris, Inc. as Placement Agent dated December 12, 2005. The
securities sold were units consisting of one share of the Company's common
stock, $.001 par value and one redeemable Common Stock purchase warrant. At the
closing, the Company sold an aggregate of 4,692,263 Units at an aggregate
purchase price of $5,396,103 or $1.15 per unit. At the closing, the Company
delivered an aggregate of 4,692,263 Shares and 4,692,263 Warrants to the
purchasers.
Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Share of Common Stock
at an exercise price of $1.50 per share commencing on the date of issuance and
expiring at the close of business on the fifth anniversary of the issuance date.
The Warrants contain provisions that protect the holder against dilution by
adjustment of the exercise price in certain events including, but not limited
to, stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications, or mergers. The Company
may redeem the Warrants, at a price of $.10 per Warrant, at any time following
the issuance date upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior written
notice if (a) the Common Stock underlying the Warrants has been registered with
the SEC, and (b) the closing price of the Common Stock exceeds a 200% premium of
the exercise price of the Warrants for 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days.
In connection with the private placement, Sanders Morris Harris, Inc.,
the placement agent in the private placement, received a commission equal to 5%
of the offering price of the units sold by them in the private placement, a
commission equal to 2 1/2% on the 1,764,872 units by Sunflower Capital and a
financial advisory fee equal to 2% of the offering price of the units sold in
the private placement and a warrant to purchase 234,613 shares of common stock,
or 5% of the units sold in the private placement. The warrants are exercisable
for a period of five years at an exercise price of $1.15 per share and contain
the same anti-dilution rights as the common stock warrant issued in the January
2006 private placement.
As part of the Private Placement, the Company entered into a
registration rights agreement with each subscriber who purchased Units in the
Private Placement. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company, as
promptly as reasonably practicable after closing of the Private Placement but in
no event later than 30 days following the closing, the Company is obligated to
file a registration statement on Form SB-2, relating to the resale by the
holders of the Common Stock underlying the Units, Warrants and Placement Agent
Warrant. If such Registration Statement is not filed within the required time
frame, or does not become effective within 90 days after closing (or 120 days
after closing, if the Registration Statement is subject to review by the SEC),
the Company has agreed to pay to the investors 1% of the gross proceeds of the
offering for each month in which the Company fails to comply with such
requirements.
Sunflower Capital, LLC, a limited liability company managed by William
P. Moore, a director of the Company, purchased an aggregate of 1,764,872 Units
26
in the offering, which consisted of a new investment of $1,525,000 to purchase
1,326,087 Units and the conversion of the Note plus accrued interest in the
amount of $4,602 to purchase 438,785 Units.
The aforementioned securities have been and will be issued under the
exemption from registration provided in Section 4(2) of the Act.
The cash proceeds of the above sales of securities of the Company will
be used for general corporate purposes in developing the Company's planned
services.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a
revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.
Statement 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and amends FASB Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. The
approach to accounting for share-based payments in Statement 123(R) is similar
to the approach described in Statement 123. However, Statement 123(R) requires
all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock
options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values
and no longer allows pro forma disclosure as an alternative to financial
statement recognition. The Company will be required to adopt Statement 123(R) in
the first quarter of its year ending September 30, 2007. The Company has not
determined what financial statement impact Statement 123(R) will have on the
Company.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING
AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
On April 7, 2004, based upon the recommendation of and approval by our
board of directors, we dismissed Aidman Piser & Company, P.A. ("Aidman Piser")
as our independent auditor and engaged BKD, LLP to serve as our independent
auditor for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2004. On May 11, 2004, at the
annual shareholders meeting, our shareholders affirmed the engagement of BKD,
LLP as our independent auditors.
Aidman Piser's reports on our consolidated financial statements for the
fiscal year ended September 30, 2003, contained a qualified opinion as to our
ability to continue as a "going concern" in our absence of revenues, or the
ability to attract additional capital. During the years ended September 30, 2003
and 2002 and through April 7, 2004, there were no disagreements with Aidman
Piser on any matter of accounting principle or practice, financial statement
disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to Aidman
Piser's satisfaction, would have caused them to make references to the subject
matter in connection with their reports of our consolidated financial statements
for such years. In addition, we believe there were no reportable events as
defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B) of Regulation S-B.
We provided Aidman Piser with a copy of the foregoing statements and
requested that Aidman Piser provide it with a letter addressed to the SEC
stating whether it agrees with the foregoing statements. A copy of Aidman
Piser's letter, dated April 7, 2004, was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to our Current
Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 12, 2004.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The following description includes the material terms of our common stock.
However, it is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of
our Certificate of Incorporation, with amendments, all of which have been filed
as exhibits to our registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
Our authorized capital stock consists of 50,500,000 shares of stock. We are
authorized to issue two classes of stock that consist of 500,000 shares of
preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 50,000,000 shares of common
stock, par value $0.001 per share.
As of March 1, 2005, we had outstanding 213,417 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock converts into our common stock at
the rate of $2.00 per share. The shares may be converted to fully-paid and
non-assessable shares of common stock at the option of the holder at $2.00 per
share. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are redeemable at the option of
the holder three years subsequent to the date of issuance at a redemption price
equal to 110% of the stated value, plus an amount per share equal to all accrued
and unpaid dividends. No dividends were declared during the year ended September
30, 2004, but dividends were accrued in accordance with the cumulative dividends
rate of $.10 per share per annum.
As of February 13, 2006, we had 24,913,713 outstanding shares of common stock,
$.001 par value. We have reserved 12,205,449 shares of common stock for issuance
pursuant to outstanding options and warrants. Each issued and outstanding share
is fully paid and non-assessable. No pre-emptive rights exist with respect to
any of our common stock. Holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to
one vote for each share on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders.
Holders of shares of our common stock have no cumulative voting rights. Holders
36
of shares of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if
any, as may be declared, from time to time by our Board of Directors in its
discretion, from funds legally available for any such dividends. In the event of
a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of SiriCOMM, the holders of shares of
our common stock are entitled to their pro rata share of all assets remaining
after payment in full of all liabilities.
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
The Delaware General Corporation Law and our Bylaws provide for indemnification
of our directors for liabilities and expenses that they may incur in such
capacities. In general, our directors and officers are indemnified with respect
to actions taken in good faith and in a manner such person believed to be in our
best interests, and with respect to any criminal action or proceedings, actions
that such person has no reasonable cause to believe were unlawful. Furthermore,
the personal liability of our directors is limited as provided in our
Certificate of Incorporation.
We maintain directors and officers liability insurance with an aggregate
coverage limit of $3,000,000.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may
be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC, such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is
therefore unenforceable.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling shareholders and any of their pledgees, assignees and
successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares
of our common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which
the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or
negotiated prices. The selling shareholders may use any one or more of the
following methods when selling shares:
o ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the
broker/dealer solicits purchasers;
o block trades in which the broker/dealer will attempt to sell
the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of
the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
o purchases by a broker/dealer as principal and resale by the
broker/dealer for its account;
o an exchange distribution in accordance with the Rules of the
applicable exchange;
o privately negotiated transactions;
o settlement of short sales;
o broker/dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell
a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per
share;
o a combination of any such methods of sale; and
o any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The selling shareholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker/dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other
brokers/dealers to participate in sales. Broker/dealers may receive commissions
from the selling shareholders (or, if any broker/dealer acts as agent for the
purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The
selling shareholders do not expect these commissions to exceed what is customary
in the types of transactions involved.
The selling shareholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security
interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they
default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured
parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under
this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3)
or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of
selling shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in
interest as selling shareholders under this prospectus.
37
The selling shareholders and any broker/dealers or agents that are involved in
selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the
Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions
received by such broker/dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the
shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions under the
Securities Act. The selling shareholders have informed us that they do not have
any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to
distribute the common stock.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the
shares. We have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders against certain
losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act.

We are registering for resale shares issued by us in private placements and
shares issuable on exercise of warrants issued by us in private placements. All
such shares issued or to be issued are and will be restricted securities as that
term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and will remain restricted
unless and until such shares are sold pursuant to this prospectus or otherwise
are sold in compliance with Rule 144.
In the purchase agreements, each of the selling shareholders represented that it
had acquired the shares for investment purposes only and with no present
intention of distributing those shares, except in compliance with all applicable
securities law. In addition, each of the selling shareholders represented that
each qualifies as an "accredited investor" as such term is defined in Rule 501
under the Securities Act.
The table below sets forth information concerning the resale of the shares of
common stock by the selling shareholders. We will not receive any proceeds from
the resale of the common stock by the selling shareholders. We will receive
proceeds from the warrants, if exercised. The following table also sets forth
the name of each person who is offering the resale of shares of common stock by
this prospectus, the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each
person, the number of shares of common stock that may be sold in this offering
and the number of shares of common stock each person will own after the
offering, assuming they sell all of the shares offered.
The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned is determined in
accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, and the information is not
necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under such
rule, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which the selling
shareholder has sole or shared voting power or investment power and also any
shares the selling shareholder has the right to acquire within 60 days.
Percentages are based on a total of 24,913,713 shares of common stock
outstanding on February 13, 2006. Shares of common stock subject to options and
warrants currently exercisable or convertible, or exercisable or convertible
within 60 days of February 13, 2006, are deemed outstanding for computing the
percentage of the selling shareholder holding such option or warrant but are not
deemed outstanding for computing the percentage of any other selling
shareholder.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
(UNAUDITED)
1. Nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies:
Nature of Operations:
SiriCOMM, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), through its wholly
owned subsidiary of the same name, which was incorporated in the State of
Missouri on April 24, 2000, has developed broadband wireless application service
technologies intended for use in the marine and transportation industries. The
Company opened its network in December, 2004 for commercial operation and has
commenced selling its InTouch(TM) Internet Service to individual subscribers.
Since December, 2004, the Company has commenced revenue producing
operations and continues to market its service technologies, including satellite
communications, wireless networking, and productivity enhancing software.
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosures 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.
Interim Information: Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
reflect all adjustments that are in the opinion of the Company's management,
necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows of the Company. Those adjustments consist only of normal recurring
adjustments.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's
annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or
omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's Form 10-KSB annual report for fiscal year ended
September 30, 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The results of operations for the period are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year.
Stock-based Compensation:
The Company accounts for compensation costs associated with stock options
issued to employees under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25 whereby compensation is recognized to the extent the market price of the
underlying stock at the grant date exceeds the exercise price of the option
granted.
F-6
SIRICOMM, Inc.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
(UNAUDITED)
It is the Company's practice to issue stock options to employees at or above the
market value of the Company's stock on the date of grant. Stock-based
compensation to non-employees is accounted for using the fair-value based method
prescribed by Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 - Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation. The Company uses the trinomial options-pricing model to determine
the fair value of stock-based compensation and capital contributions.
Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option plan been determined
on the fair value at the grant dates for stock-based employee compensation
arrangements consistent with the method required by SFAS 123, the Company's net
loss and net loss per common share would have been the pro forma amounts
indicated below.

Net loss per common share-basic and diluted:
As reported $ (0.04) $ (0.03)
Pro forma under fair value method $ (0.04) $ (0.03)
Research and development costs:
The Company incurs costs, associated with computer software to be marketed
in the future. Costs incurred in connection with establishing technological
feasibility have been expensed as research and development costs.
Net loss per share:
Net loss per share represents the net loss available to common stockholders
divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
year. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur
if convertible preferred stock was converted into common stock. Diluted net loss
per share is considered to be the same as basic net loss per share since the
effect of the issuance of common stock associated with the convertible stock is
anti-dilutive.

2. Line of Credit:
During 2004, the Company entered into a line of credit with Southwest
Missouri Bank for the purchase of network infrastructure equipment up to a
maximum of $1,000,000. This note is 80% guaranteed by the U.S. Department of
Agriculture ("USDA") and is secured by the network equipment. This note is
further personally guaranteed by the Company's majority shareholder. The note is
a demand note, but if no demand is made then monthly payments of accrued
interest at an initial rate of 5.5% on the USDA guaranteed portion and 7.0% on
the unguaranteed portion plus monthly principal payments of $2,358.
3. Convertible Note Payable to Related Party
On December 27, 2005, the Company entered into a loan agreement with
Sunflower Capital, LLC, a limited liability company managed by William P. Moore,
a director of the Company. The loan is in the principal amount of $500,000 and
is evidenced by a convertible promissory note due July 1, 2006. As consideration
for Sunflower making the loan, the Company issued to Sunflower a warrant to
purchase 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.26 per share. The
warrant expires December 15, 2010. A discount of $76,271 was recorded based on
the estimated fair value of the warrant issued and will be expensed over the
life of the loan.
The note mandatorily converts into the Company's units consisting of one
share of common stock and one redeemable common stock purchase warrant
exercisable at $1.50 per share during the period commencing on the date of
issuance and expiring five years thereafter. The note will convert into such
units at the rate of $1.15 per unit upon the closing of a private placement as
described in the Loan Agreement. In the event the private placement does not
close, Sunflower Capital will have the option to convert the note into shares of
the Company's common stock and common stock purchase warrants at a variable
conversion price determined by taking the value weighted average price of the
Company's common stock for the 20 trading days prior to the date the conversion
notice is sent to the Company. In addition, the Company will issue to Sunflower
Capital such number of warrants equal to the number of shares being issued upon
conversion. The exercise price of such warrants shall be equal to the conversion
price plus $0.25. These warrants will be exercisable for a period of five years
from the date of issuance. (See Note 6)
4. Stockholders' Equity:
During the three-months ended December 31, 2005, the Company repurchased
90,000 common shares at a price of $90,000.
On December 15, 2005, the Company issued 25,000 shares of its common stock
to IRG pursuant to a consulting agreement dated November 15, 2005. The
consulting agreement also requires the Company to issue an additional 15,000
shares on or before January 1, 2006 and 10,000 shares on or before February 1,
2006. Additionally, the consulting agreement calls for the issuance on January
15, 2006 of 50,000 four year warrants with the following exercise prices:

5. Commitments and Contingencies:
Litigation:
On December 17, 2004, certain officers and directors of the Company were
named defendants in a lawsuit entitled Greg Sanders v. Henry Hoffman et al.
Messrs. Hoffman, Dillman, Mendez and Iler are officers and directors of the
Company, Mr. Thompson is a director of the Company and Mr. Noland is a former
officer and director of the Company. The action alleges fraud, misrepresentation
and breach of fiduciary duty relating to a settlement agreement entered into
between the Company and Mr. Sanders. The complaint seeks damages in excess of
$9,679,903. Although the Company was not named as a defendant, it will pay all
expenses relating to the defense of this matter. In management's opinion this
case is without merit and the defendants intend on defending this matter
vigorously. The defendants subsequently have answered the complaints and have
filed counter claims to this action as of August 15th, 2005. Subsequently on
February 8, 2006 the Plaintiff sought to amend the complaint to add the Company
as a defendant. The Company has filed a motion in opposition of this petition.
The Company will pay all expenses relating to the defense of this matter. In
management's opinion this case is without merit and the defendants intend on
defending this matter vigorously.
6. Subsequent Events:
On January 31, 2006, SiriCOMM, Inc. consummated a private placement of its
securities. The securities sold were units consisting of one share of the
Company's common stock, $.001 par value and one redeemable common stock purchase
warrant. At the closing, the Company sold an aggregate of 4,692,263 units at an
aggregate purchase price of $5,396,103, or $1.15 per unit. At the closing, the
Company delivered an aggregate of 4,692,263 shares and 4,692,263 warrants to the
purchasers.
Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at
an exercise price of $1.50 per share commencing on the date of issuance and
expiring at the close of business on the fifth anniversary of the issuance date.
The warrants contain provisions that protect the holder against dilution by
adjustment of the exercise price in certain events including, but not limited
to, stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications, or mergers. The Company
may redeem the warrants, at a price of $.10 per warrant, at any time following
the issuance date upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior written
notice if (a) the common stock underlying the warrants has been registered with
the SEC, and (b) the closing price of the common stock exceeds a 200% premium of
the exercise price of the warrants for 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days.
The placement agent received a commission equal to 5% of the offering price
of the units sold by them in the private placement, a commission equal to 2 1/2%
on the 1,764,872 units purchased by Sunflower Capital, LLC and a financial
advisory fee equal to 2% of the offering price of the units sold in the private
placement and a warrant to purchase common stock equal to 5% of the shares of
common stock underlying the units sold in the private placement at an exercise
price of $1.15 per share.
As part of the private placement, the Company entered into a registration
rights agreement with each subscriber who purchased units in the private
placement. Under the agreement, the Company,

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
(UNAUDITED)
as promptly as reasonably practicable after closing of the private placement but
in no event later than 30 days following the closing, the Company is obligated
to file a registration statement on Form SB-2, relating to the resale by the
holders of the common stock underlying the units, warrants and placement agent
warrant. If such registration statement is not filed within the required time
frame, or does not become effective within 90 days after closing (or 120 days
after closing, if the registration statement is subject to review by the SEC),
the Company has agreed to pay to the investors 1% of the gross proceeds of the
offering for each month in which the Company fails to comply with such
requirements.
Sunflower Capital, LLC, a limited liability company managed by William P.
Moore, a director of the Company, purchased an aggregate of 1,764,872 units in
the offering, which consisted of a new investment of $1,525,000 to purchase
1,326,087 units and the conversion of the note payable plus accrued interest in
the amount of $4,602 to purchase 438,785 units. (See Note 3)

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Audit Committee, Board of Directors and Stockholders
SiriCOMM, Inc.
Joplin, Missouri
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of SiriCOMM, Inc.
as of September 30, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the
period ended September 30, 2005. 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of SiriCOMM, Inc as of
September 30, 2005 and 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the two years in the period ended September 30, 2005, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, the Company has
suffered recurring losses and negative operating cash flows which raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's
plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

SiriCOMM, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2005 and 2004
Note 1: Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
SiriCOMM, Inc.- Missouri (the "Company"), incorporated in the State of
Missouri on April 24, 2000, ("SiriCOMM Missouri") has developed broadband
wireless application service technologies intended for use in the transportation
industries.
As part of the transaction treated as a reverse merger on November 21,
2002, SiriCOMM, Inc. (f/k/a Fountain Pharmaceuticals, Inc.), a Delaware
corporation (the "Company" or "SiriCOMM") completed the acquisition of all the
issued and outstanding shares of SiriCOMM, Inc,- a Missouri corporation
("SiriCOMM Missouri"). An aggregate 9,622,562 shares of common stock were issued
to SiriCOMM Missouri shareholders. Furthermore, the Company issued 1,922,000
shares to retire $1,000,000 of convertible notes issued by SiriCOMM Missouri.
The Company commenced its initial product offering of Internet Services
Providing in October 2004 and began revenue generation in December 2004. As the
Company is providing services to customers, it no longer considers itself in the
development stage.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its majority-owned subsidiary, SiriComm, Missouri. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments with original maturities of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2005 and 2004,
cash equivalents consisted primarily of money market accounts with banking
institutions. Approximately $800,000 was held in one institution in excess of
guaranteed amounts as of September 30, 2005.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to customers. The
Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts if deemed necessary, which
is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection
information and existing economic conditions. Accounts receivable are ordinarily
due 30 days after the issuance of the invoice.
Accounts past due more than 120 days are considered delinquent.
Delinquent receivables are written off based on individual credit evaluation and
specific circumstances of the customer.
F-17
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are depreciated over the estimated useful life of
each asset. Annual depreciation is primarily computed using straight-line
methods.
Description Assigned Lives
----------- --------------
Equipment 5 years
Software
Costs associated with the planning and design phase of software
development, including coding and testing activities necessary to establish
technological feasibility, are classified as research and development and
expensed as incurred. Once technological feasibility has been determined, costs
incurred, including coding, testing and product quality assurance, are
capitalized.
Amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the
estimated economic life of the software. Amortization commences when a product
is available for general resale to customers. Unamortized capitalized costs
determined to be in excess of the net realizable value of a product are expensed
at the date of such determination. The Company has yet to amortize capitalized
costs associated with internally developed software. Amortization expense for
software acquired externally was $6,638 and $0 for 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Intangible Assets
The costs of licenses and satellite bandwidth access acquired are
amortized over the estimated useful life of each asset. Annual amortization is
computed using the straight-line method.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects
of differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and
liabilities. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets
if it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
The Company files consolidated income tax returns with its subsidiary.
Preferred Stock - Redeemable and Convertible
The Company authorized 500,000 shares of Series A Cumulative Convertible
Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), par value of $.001 per share,
during fiscal year 2004. The shares may be converted to fully-paid and
non-assessable shares of Common Stock at the option of the holder at $2.00 per
share. The Series A Preferred Stock are redeemable at the option of the holder
three years subsequent to the date of issuance at a redemption price equal to
110% of the stated value, plus an amount per share equal to all accrued and
unpaid dividends.
Cumulative preferred dividends in arrears for 2005 and 2004 were $37,348
and $16,006, respectively.
In December 2003, the Company issued an aggregate of 213,417 shares of
its Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the conversion of an aggregate of
$200,000 of debt due by the Company.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from the sale of the Company's internet services are recognized
ratably based on customer subscription rates and terms. Although Company
management has the discretion to provide refunds due to customer cancellations,
payments for internet services are generally non-refundable.
F-18
Research and Development
The Company incurs costs associated with computer software to be
marketed in the future. Costs incurred in connection with establishing
technological feasibility have been expensed as research and development costs.
Advertising
The Company incurred advertising expenses of $41,612 and $6,799 during
2005 and 2004, respectively.
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per share represents the net loss available to common
stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution which
could occur if convertible preferred stock, warrants and stock options were
converted into common stock. Diluted net loss per share is considered to be the
same as basic net loss per share since the effect of the issuance of common
stock associated with the convertible stock, warrants and stock options is
anti-dilutive.
Equity Incentive Plan
At September 30, 2005, the Company has a stock-based equity incentive
plan, which is described more fully in Note 9. The Company accounts for this
plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. Certain
stock-based employee compensation costs are reflected in net income for 2004
whereby certain options granted under the plan had an exercise price less than
the market value of the underlying common stock on the grant date. The following
table illustrates the effect on net loss and earnings per share if the Company
had applied the fair value provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

============= ==============
Fair Value of Equity Instruments
The valuation of certain items, including valuation of warrants or
restricted stock that may be offered as compensation for goods or services
received within its contracts, involve significant estimations with underlying
assumptions judgmentally determined. Warrants are valued using the most reliable
measure of fair value, such as the value of the goods or services rendered, if
not obtainable, the valuation of warrants and stock options are then based upon
a trinomial valuation model, which involves estimates of stock volatility,
expected life of the instruments and other assumptions. As the Company's stock
is thinly traded, the amounts recorded for equity instruments, which are based
partly on historical pricing of the Company's stock, are subject to the
assumptions used by management in determining the fair value.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2004 financial
statements to conform to the 2005 financial statement presentation. These
reclassifications had no effect on net earnings.
F-19
Note 2: Management's Consideration of Going Concern Matters
The Company has incurred losses and negative operating cash flows for
several years. The financial statements have been prepared using the going
concern basis of accounting. This basis assumes realization of assets and
liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Since its
inception, SiriCOMM has financed its activities primarily from short term loans
and the placement of private equity. SiriCOMM has completed approximately 260 of
the 400 sites which were part of its initial network. The Company commenced
selling its InTouch(TM) Internet Service Provider design in December 2004.
Additionally, as the long-term financial objectives of the Company
requires funding to complete its plan to build an additional 500-750 sites in
excess of the initial network and provide additional working capital, there can
be no assurances that the Company will be able to raise the additional financing
necessary to construct the balance of the Company's planned network. Although
not currently planned, realization of assets in other than the ordinary course
of business in order to meet liquidity needs could incur losses not reflected in
these financial statements.
Note 3: Intangible Assets
The carrying basis and accumulated amortization of recognized intangible
assets at September 30, 2005 are noted below. The Company did not have any
intangible assets as of September 30, 2004.

Note 11: Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of financial
instruments.
The fair values of certain of these instruments were calculated by
discounting expected cash flows, which method involves significant judgments by
management and uncertainties. Fair value is the estimated amount at which
financial assets or liabilities could be exchanged in a current transaction
between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Because no
market exists for certain of these financial instruments and because management
does not intend to sell these financial instruments, the Company does not know
whether the fair values shown below represent values at which the respective
financial instruments could be sold individually or in the aggregate.
Notes Payable and Long-term Debt
Fair value is estimated based on the borrowing rates currently available
to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and maturities.
The following table presents estimated fair values of the Company's
financial instruments at September 30, 2005 and 2004.
2005 2004

Note 12: Significant Estimates and Concentrations
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
require disclosure of certain significant estimates and current vulnerabilities
due to certain concentrations. Those matters include the following:
Contingencies
On December 17, 2004, certain officers and directors of the Company were
named defendants in a lawsuit entitled Greg Sanders v. Henry Hoffman et al.
Messrs. Hoffman, Dilman, Mendez and Iler are officers and directors of the
Company, Mr. Thompson is a director of the Company and Mr. Noland is a former
officer and director of the Company. The action alleges fraud, misrepresentation
and breach of fiduciary duty relating to a settlement agreement entered into
between the Company and Mr. Sanders. The complaint seeks damages in excess of
$9,600,000. The Company has paid and expects to pay all expenses relating to the
defense of this matter. In management's opinion this case is without merit and
the defendants intend on defending this matter vigorously.
Note 13: Commitments
Employment agreements
The Company has three executive employee agreements with certain
officers and directors. As part of these agreements the Company is obligated to
pay these individuals aggregate compensation of $425,000 annually through
February 2006. These contracts were automatically renewed per their respective
contracts requiring no further action by the Board.
F-25
Note 14: Subsequent Events
On November 15, 2005, the Company purchased 90,000 shares of its common
stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share in an open market transaction. The
stock repurchase was authorized by the Company's board of directors.
On December 15, 2005, the Company issued 25,000 shares of its common
stock to IRG pursuant to a consulting agreement dated November 30, 2005. The
consulting agreement also requires the Company to issue an additional 15,000
shares on or before January 1, 2006 and 10,000 shares on or before February 1,
2006. Additionally, the consulting agreement calls for the issuance on January
15, 2006 of 50,000 four (4) year warrants with the following exercise prices:
16,666 at $1.25
16,667 at $1.35
16,667 at $1.45
On December 27, 2005, the Company entered into a loan agreement with
Sunflower Capital, LLC. The loan is in the principal amount of $500,000 and is
evidenced by a Convertible Promissory Note due July 1, 2006. As consideration
for Sunflower making the loan, the Company issued to Sunflower a warrant to
purchase 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.26 per share. The
warrant expires December 15, 2010.
The note mandatorily converts into the Company's units consisting of one
share of common stock and one redeemable common stock purchase warrant
exercisable at $1.50 per share during the period commencing on the date of
issuance and expiring five years thereafter. The note will convert into such
units at the rate of $1.15 per unit upon the closing of a private placement as
described in the loan agreement. In the event the private placement does not
close, Sunflower Capital will have the option to convert the note into shares of
the Company's common stock and common stock purchase warrants at a variable
conversion price determined by taking the value weighted average price of the
Company's common stock for the 20 trading days prior to the date the conversion
notice is sent to the Company. In addition, the Company will issue to Sunflower
Capital such number of warrants equal to the number of shares being issued upon
conversion. The exercise price of such warrants shall be equal to the conversion
price plus $0.25. These warrants will be exercisable for a period of five years
from the date of issuance.
Note 15: Future Change in Accounting Principle
On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which is a
revision of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.
Statement 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and amends FASB Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows.
The approach to accounting for share-based payments in Statement 123(R)
is similar to the approach described in Statement 123. However, Statement 123(R)
requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee
stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair
values and no longer allows pro forma disclosure as an alternative to financial
statement recognition. The Company will be required to adopt Statement 123(R) at
the beginning of the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15,
2005. The Company has not determined what financial statement impact Statement
123(R) will have on the Company.

the private placement, the Registrant sold an aggregate of 6.38 Units (319,000
shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 239,250 shares of common stock)
for an aggregate purchase price of $638,000, or $100,000 per unit. The warrants
entitle the holders to purchase shares of the common stock for a period of five
years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $2.40 per share. The
warrants contain certain anti-dilution rights and are redeemable by the
Registrant, on terms specified in the warrants.
In connection with the December 2004 private placement, Laidlaw Co. (UK) Ltd.
(f/k/a Sands Brothers International Limited) the placement agent, received a
cash commission fee of nine (9%) of the gross proceeds to the Registrant of the
securities sold at the closing, a payment of $30,000 representing the fees and
expenses of its counsel in the Private Placement and warrants to purchase 31,900
shares of common stock, or ten percent (10%) of the shares of common stock sold
in the private placement. These warrants are exercisable for a period of five
years at an exercise price of $2.40 per share and contain the same anti-dilution
rights as the warrants issued in the private placement.
In connection with the December 2004 private placement, the Registrant also
agreed to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the shares of
common stock issued in the private placement and the shares of common stock
issued underlying the warrants issued in the private placement, including the
warrant issued to the placement agent. The Company complied with the
registration rights agreement that required the Company to file a registration
statement and such statement becoming effective within 120 days. This relieved
the Registrant of the penalty to pay to the investors 1% of the gross proceeds
of the private placement for each thirty (30) day period in which the Registrant
fails to comply with such requirements.
II-3
On January 5, 2005 the Registrant issued an aggregate of 85,000 shares of its
common stock upon the exercise of a like number of warrants, exercisable at

a private placement of the Registrant's units consisting of common stock and
warrants. As an inducement to the investors exercising their warrants, the
Registrant issued warrants for an aggregate of 63,750 new warrants to the
investors. The new warrants entitle the holders to purchase shares of the
Registrant's common stock reserved for issuance thereunder for a period of five
years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $2.40 per share. The
warrants contain anti-dilution rights and are redeemable by the Registrant, in
whole or in part, on terms specified in the warrants.
As a further inducement to the investors exercising their warrants, the
Registrant also agreed to file with the SEC a registration statement covering
the shares purchased by each investor as part of the units, the shares issued

cash proceeds of the above sales of securities of the Registrant were used for
general corporate purposes in developing the Registrant's planned services.
On February 7, 2005, the Registrant entered into a network installation

by a Convertible Promissory Note due July 1, 2006. As consideration for
Sunflower making the loan, the Company issued to Sunflower a warrant to purchase
200,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.26 per share. The warrant
expires December 15, 2010.
As discussed below, the principal due under the Note plus accrued interest of

The aforementioned securities have been and will be issued under the exemption
from registration provided in Section 4(2) of the Act.
The cash proceeds of the above sales of securities of the Company were used for
general corporate purposes in developing the Company's planned services.
On January 31, 2006, the Company consummated the private placement of its
securities pursuant to a Placement Agent Agreement entered into between it and
Sanders Morris Harris, Inc. as Placement Agent dated December 12, 2005. The

delivered an aggregate of 4,692,263 shares and 4,692,263 warrants to the
purchasers.
Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an
exercise price of $1.50 per share commencing on the date of issuance and
expiring at the close of business on the fifth anniversary of the issuance date.
The warrants contain provisions that protect the holder against dilution by
adjustment of the exercise price in certain events including, but not limited
to, stock dividends, stock splits, reclassifications, or mergers. The Company
may redeem the warrants, at a price of $.10 per warrant, at any time following
the issuance date upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior written
notice if (a) the Common Stock underlying the warrants has been registered with
the SEC, and (b) the closing price of the Common Stock exceeds a 200% premium of
the exercise price of the warrants for 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days.
In connection with the private placement, Sanders Morris Harris, Inc., the
placement agent in the private placement, received a commission equal to 5% of
the offering price of the units sold by them in the private placement, a
commission equal to 2 1/2% on the 1,764,872 units by Sunflower Capital and a
financial advisory fee equal to 2% of the offering price of the units sold in
the private placement and a warrant to purchase 234,613 shares of common stock,
or 5% of the units sold in the private placement. The warrants are exercisable
II-5
for a period of five years at an exercise price of $1.15 per share and contain
the same anti-dilution rights as the common stock warrant issued in the January
2006 private placement.
As part of the Private Placement, the Registrant entered into a registration
rights agreement with each subscriber who purchased units in the Private
Placement. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Registrant, as promptly
as reasonably practicable after closing of the Private Placement but in no event
later than 30 days following the closing, the Registrant is obligated to file a
registration statement on Form SB-2, relating to the resale by the holders of
the Common Stock underlying the units, warrants and Placement Agent Warrant. If
such Registration Statement is not filed within the required time frame, or does
not become effective within 90 days after closing (or 120 days after closing, if
the Registration Statement is subject to review by the SEC), the Registrant has
agreed to pay to the investors 1% of the gross proceeds of the offering for each
month in which the Registrant fails to comply with such requirements.
Sunflower Capital, LLC, a limited liability company managed by William P. Moore,
a director of the Registrant, purchased an aggregate of 1,764,872 units in the

promulgated thereunder. Such securities were sold exclusively to accredited

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to:
File, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
1. Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
2. Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or
together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of
securities offered (if the total dollar value of the 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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the
Securities Act 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, and
3. Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of
distribution.
For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective
amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the
offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering.
File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the
securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
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.
