RISK FACTORS
THIS INVESTMENT HAS 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 ACTUALLY OCCUR,
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:
WE HAVE LOST MONEY SINCE INCEPTION. WE EXPECT FUTURE LOSSES AND WE MAY NEVER
BECOME PROFITABLE.
Since inception, we have incurred significant losses. We expect to
continue to incur net losses until sales generate sufficient revenues to fund
our continuing operations. We may fail to achieve significant revenues from
sales or achieve or sustain profitability. There can be no assurance of when, if
ever, we will be profitable or be able to maintain profitability.
IF WE DO NOT BECOME PROFITABLE WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE OUR OPERATIONS.
Our future sales and profitability depend in part on our ability to
demonstrate to prospective customers the potential performance advantages of
using voice interface software. To date, commercial sales of our software have
been limited. A lack of a proven market or market studies for our product means
that while we, software engineers and software magazine writers may believe the
public will enthusiastically accept voice interface software, the true market
for this product may be minor or nonexistent. This could result in little or no
sales revenue without which we will not be able to continue our operations
indefinitely.
WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO EVALUATE OUR
BUSINESS.
Our current corporate entity commenced operations in 1999 and has a
limited operating history. We have limited financial results on which you can
assess our future success. Our prospects must be considered in light of the
risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by growing companies in
new and rapidly evolving markets, such as voice recognition software, media
delivery systems and electronic commerce.
To address the risks and uncertainties we face, we must:
-- establish and maintain broad market acceptance of our products and
services and convert that acceptance into direct and indirect
sources of revenues;
-- maintain and enhance our brand name;
-- continue to timely and successfully develop new products, product
features and services and increase the functionality and features
of existing products;
-- successfully respond to competition from Microsoft and others,
including emerging technologies and solutions; and
-- develop and maintain strategic relationships to enhance the
distribution, features and utility of our products and services.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FUNDING OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS WILL BE
HARMED.
We believe that our available short-term assets and investment income
will be sufficient to meet our operating expenses and capital expenditures
through the end of fiscal year 2002. We do not know if additional financing will
be available when needed, or if it is available, if it will be available on
acceptable terms. Insufficient funds may prevent us from implementing our
business strategy or may require us to delay, scale back or eliminate certain
contracts for the provision of voice interface software.
3
OUR OPERATING RESULTS ARE LIKELY TO FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY.
As a result of our limited operating history and the rapidly changing
nature of the markets in which we compete, our quarterly and annual revenues and
operating results are likely to fluctuate from period to period. These
fluctuations may be caused by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our
control. These factors include the following, as well as others discussed
elsewhere in this section:
-- how and when we introduce new products and services and enhance
our existing products and services;
-- our ability to attract and retain new customers and satisfy our
customers' demands;
-- the timing and success of our brand-building and marketing
campaigns;
-- our ability to establish and maintain strategic relationships;
-- our ability to attract, train and retain key personnel;
-- the demand for voice recognition Internet search software
applications;
-- the emergence and success of new and existing competition;
-- varying operating costs and capital expenditures related to the
expansion of our business operations and infrastructure,
domestically and internationally, including the hiring of new
employees;
-- technical difficulties with our products, system downtime, system
failures or interruptions in Internet access;
-- changes in the mix of products and services that we sell to our
customers;
-- costs and effects related to the acquisition of businesses or
technology and related integration; and
-- costs of litigation and intellectual property protection.
In addition, because the market for our products and services is
relatively new and rapidly changing, it is difficult to predict future financial
results.
For these reasons, you should not rely on period-to-period comparisons
of our financial results, if any, as indications of future results. Our future
operating results could fall below the expectations of public market analysts or
investors and significantly reduce the market price of our common stock.
Fluctuations in our operating results will likely increase the volatility of our
stock price.
WE ARE A DEVELOPMENT-STAGE COMPANY AND UNEXPECTED OR UNCONTROLLABLE BUSINESS OR
ECONOMIC FORCES ARE MORE LIKELY TO HARM US.
We are in the development or starting stages of our business plan and
are therefore more vulnerable to unexpected or uncontrollable business and
economic forces. We lack any loyalty and brand name recognition from potential
customers and business partners. Unknown software errors may not be corrected in
time to develop a sustainable customer base. Unfavorable product reviews or news
reports could squelch early sales efforts. A competitor may quickly release a
better version of a similar product before we can complete our development
efforts. Economic conditions such as a national or world recession,
international trade restrictions on computer product sales, or a slowdown in new
technology growth could reduce our revenues below financially-healthy levels.
The risks of a development-stage company include a lack of job security for
employees and the possible loss of all investment funds by investors
OUR CURRENT AND POTENTIAL COMPETITORS, SOME OF WHOM HAVE GREATER RESOURCES AND
EXPERIENCE THAN WE DO, MAY DEVELOP PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGIES THAT MAY CAUSE
DEMAND FOR, AND THE PRICES OF, OUR PRODUCTS TO DECLINE.
A number of companies have developed, or are expected to develop,
products that compete with our products. Competitors in the voice interface
software market include IBM, Lernout and Hauspie Speech Products, SpeechWorks
and Nuance. We expect additional competition from other companies such as
Microsoft, who has recently made investments in, and acquired, voice interface
technology companies. Furthermore, our competitors may combine with each other,
and other companies may enter our markets by acquiring or entering into
4
strategic relationships with our competitors. Current and potential competitors
have established, or may establish, cooperative relationships among themselves
or with third parties to increase the abilities of their advanced speech and
language technology products to address the needs of our prospective customers.
Many of our current and potential competitors have longer operating
histories, significantly greater financial, technical, product development and
marketing resources, greater name recognition and larger customer bases than we
do. Our present or future competitors may be able to develop products comparable
or superior to those we offer, adapt more quickly than we do to new
technologies, evolving industry trends and standards or customer requirements,
or devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their
products than we do. Accordingly, we may not be able to compete effectively in
our markets, competition may intensify and future competition may harm our
business.
ANY INABILITY TO ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY COULD HARM OUR
ABILITY TO COMPETE.
Our future success and ability to compete depends in part upon our
proprietary technology and our trademarks, which we attempt to protect with a
combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as
with our confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions. These legal
protections afford only limited protection and are time-consuming and expensive
to obtain and/or maintain. Further, despite our efforts, we may be unable to
prevent third parties from infringing upon or misappropriating our intellectual
property.
We have recently been issued our first patent. In addition we have
recieived a notice of allowance rearding a second patent and have a patent
pending status on a third patent. Any patents that are issued to us could be
invalidated, circumvented or challenged. If challenged, our patents might not be
upheld or their claims could be narrowed. Our intellectual property may not be
adequate to provide us with competitive advantage or to prevent competitors from
entering the markets for our products. Additionally, our competitors could
independently develop non-infringing technologies that are competitive with,
equivalent to, and/or superior to our technology. Monitoring infringement and/or
misappropriation of intellectual property can be difficult, and there is no
guarantee that we would detect any infringement or misappropriation of our
proprietary rights. Even if we do detect infringement or misappropriation of our
proprietary rights, litigation to enforce these rights could cause us to divert
financial and other resources away from our business operations. Further, we
license our products internationally, and the laws of some foreign countries do
not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the
United States.
OUR PRODUCTS MAY INFRINGE UPON THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF OTHERS AND
RESULTING CLAIMS AGAINST US COULD BE COSTLY AND REQUIRE US TO ENTER INTO
DISADVANTAGEOUS LICENSE OR ROYALTY ARRANGEMENTS.
The software industry is characterized by the existence of a large
number of patents and frequent litigation based on allegations of patent
infringement and the violation of intellectual property rights. Although we
attempt to avoid infringing upon known proprietary rights of third parties, we
may be subject to legal proceedings and claims for alleged infringement by us or
our licensees of third-party proprietary rights, such as patents, trade secrets,
trademarks or copyrights, from time to time in the ordinary course of business.
Any claims relating to the infringement of third-party proprietary rights, even
if not successful or meritorious, could result in costly litigation, divert
resources and management's attention or require us to enter into royalty or
license agreements which are not advantageous to us. In addition, parties making
these claims may be able to obtain injunctions, which could prevent us from
selling our products. Furthermore, former employers of our employees may assert
that these employees have improperly disclosed confidential or proprietary
information to us. Any of these results could harm our business. We may be
increasingly subject to infringement claims as the number of, and number of
features of, our products grow.
IF THE STANDARDS WE HAVE SELECTED TO SUPPORT ARE NOT ADOPTED AS THE STANDARDS
FOR SPEECH-ACTIVATED SOFTWARE, BUSINESSES MIGHT NOT USE OUR SPEECH-ACTIVATED
SOFTWARE PLATFORM FOR DELIVERY OF APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES, AND OUR REVENUE
GROWTH COULD BE NEGATIVELY AFFECTED.
The market for speech-activated services software is new and emerging.
Certain industry software standards have, however, been established but may
change as the technology evolves. We may not be competitive unless our products
support changing industry software standards. The emergence of industry
standards other than those we have selected to support, whether through adoption
by official standards committees or widespread usage, could require costly and
time consuming redesign of our products. If these standards become widespread
5
and our products do not support them, our clients and potential clients may not
purchase our products, and our revenue growth could be adversely affected.
Multiple standards in the marketplace could also make it difficult for us to
design our products to support all applicable standards, which could also result
in decreased sales of our products.
OUR FAILURE TO RESPOND TO RAPID CHANGE IN THE MARKET FOR SPEECH-ACTIVATED
SERVICES SOFTWARE COULD CAUSE US TO LOSE REVENUE AND HARM OUR BUSINESS.
The speech-activated services software industry is relatively new and
rapidly evolving. Our success will depend substantially upon our ability to
enhance our existing products and to develop and introduce, on a timely and
cost-effective basis, new products and features that meet changing end-user
requirements and incorporate technological advancements. If we are unable to
develop new products and enhanced functionalities or technologies to adapt to
these changes, or if we cannot offset a decline in revenue from existing
products with sales of new products, our business will suffer.
Commercial acceptance of our products and technologies will depend,
among other things, on:
-- the ability of our products and technologies to meet and adapt to
the needs of our target markets;
-- the performance and price of our products as compared to our
competitors' products;
-- our ability to deliver customer service directly and through our
resellers; and
-- the ability of our customers to utilize our product.
OUR PRODUCTS MAY NOT BE 100% ACCURATE AT RECOGNIZING SPEECH OR AUTHENTICATING
SPEAKER IDENTITIES AND WE COULD BE SUBJECT TO CLAIMS RELATED TO THE PERFORMANCE
OF OUR PRODUCTS. ANY CLAIMS, WHETHER SUCCESSFUL OR UNSUCCESSFUL, COULD RESULT IN
SIGNIFICANT COSTS AND COULD DAMAGE OUR REPUTATION.
Speech recognition, natural language understanding and authentication
technologies, including our own, are not 100% accurate. Our customers will use
our products to provide important services to their customers. Any
misrecognition of voice commands or incorrect authentication of a user's voice
in connection with these transactions could result in claims against us or our
customers for losses incurred. Although our contracts will typically contain
provisions designed to limit our exposure to liability claims, a claim brought
against us for misrecognition or incorrect authentication, even if unsuccessful,
could be time-consuming, divert management's attention, result in costly
litigation and harm our reputation. Moreover, existing or future laws or
unfavorable judicial decisions could limit the enforceability of the limitation
of liability, disclaimer of warranty or other protective provisions contained in
our contracts.
THERE ARE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS MADE BY US AND ACTUAL
RESULTS MAY DIFFER.
Some of the information in this Form SB-2 contains forward-looking
statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify
these statements by forward-looking words such as "may," "will," "expect,"
"anticipate," "believe," "estimate" and "continue," or similar words. You should
read statements that contain these words carefully because they:
-- discuss our future expectations;
-- contain projections of our future results of operations or of our
financial condition; and
-- state other "forward-looking" information.
We believe it is important to communicate our expectations. However,
there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or
over which we have no control. The risk factors listed in this section, as well
as any cautionary language in this prospectus, provide examples of risks,
uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially
from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. You should
be aware that the occurrence of the events described in these risk factors could
have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.
6
RISKS RELATING TO OUR CURRENT FINANCING AGREEMENT:
THERE ARE A LARGE NUMBER OF SHARES UNDERLYING OUR CONVERTIBLE NOTE, AND WARRANTS
THAT MAY BE AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE SALE AND THE SALE OF THESE SHARES MAY DEPRESS
THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
As of August 28, 2002, we had 33,650,076 shares of common stock issued
and outstanding and convertible promissory notes outstanding that may be
converted into an estimated 9,691,500 shares of common stock at current market
prices, and outstanding options and warrants to purchase 5,247,396 shares of
common stock. In addition, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon
conversion of the outstanding convertible note may increase if the market price
of our stock declines. All of the shares, including all of the shares issuable
upon conversion of the note and upon exercise of our warrants, may be sold
without restriction. The sale of these shares may adversely affect the market
price of our common stock.
THE CONTINUOUSLY ADJUSTABLE CONVERSION PRICE FEATURE OF OUR CONVERTIBLE NOTES
COULD REQUIRE US TO ISSUE A SUBSTANTIALLY GREATER NUMBER OF SHARES, WHICH WILL
CAUSE DILUTION TO OUR EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS.
Our obligation to issue shares upon conversion of our convertible
securities is essentially limitless.
The following is an example of the amount shares of our common stock
that is issuable, upon conversion of our convertible notes, based on market
prices 25%, 50% and 75% below the market price, as of August 28, 2002 of $0.16.
With Number of Shares Percentage of
% Below Market Price Per Share Discount of 20% Issuable Outstanding Stock
-------------- --------------- --------------- -------- -----------------
25% $.12 .10 7,020,000 17%
50% $.08 .06 11,700,000 26%
75% $.04 .03 23,400,000 41%
As illustrated, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of
our convertible notes will increase if the market price of our stock declines,
which will cause dilution to our existing stockholders.
THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES UPON CONVERSION OF THE CONVERTIBLE NOTE AND EXERCISE OF
OUTSTANDING WARRANTS MAY CAUSE IMMEDIATE AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION TO OUR
EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS.
The issuance of shares upon conversion of the convertible note and
exercise of warrants may result in substantial dilution to the interests of
other stockholders since the selling stockholder may ultimately convert and sell
the full amount issuable on conversion. Although the selling stockholder may not
convert their convertible note and/or exercise their warrants if such conversion
or exercise would cause them to own more than 9.99% of our outstanding common
stock, this restriction does not prevent the selling stockholder from converting
and/or exercising some of their holdings and then converting the rest of their
holdings. In this way, the selling stockholder could sell more than this limit
while never holding more than this limit. There is no upper limit on the number
of shares that may be issued which will have the effect of further diluting the
proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our common stock,
including investors in this offering.
7
RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK:
OUR DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS BENEFICIALLY OWN APPROXIMATELY18.01% OF OUR
STOCK; THEIR INTERESTS COULD CONFLICT WITH YOURS; SIGNIFICANT SALES OF STOCK
HELD BY THEM COULD HAVE A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON OUR STOCK PRICE; STOCKHOLDERS MAY
BE UNABLE TO EXERCISE CONTROL.
As of August 28, 2002 , our executive officers, directors and
affiliated persons beneficially own approximately 18.01% of our common stock.
Dean Weber, our chief executive officer and chairman of the board, beneficially
owns approximately 16.52% of our common stock. As a result, our executive
officers, directors and affiliated persons will have significant influence to:
-- elect or defeat the election of our directors;
-- amend or prevent amendment of our articles of incorporation or
bylaws;
-- effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate
transaction; and
-- control the outcome of any other matter submitted to the
stockholders for vote.
As a result of their ownership and positions, our directors and
executive officers collectively are able to significantly influence all matters
requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval
of significant corporate transactions. In addition, sales of significant amounts
of shares held by our directors and executive officers, or the prospect of these
sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Management's
stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer
or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our
stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock
price.
IF WE FAIL TO MEET THE EXPECTATIONS OF PUBLIC MARKET ANALYSTS AND INVESTORS, THE
MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY DECREASE SIGNIFICANTLY.
Public market analysts and investors have not been able to develop
consistent financial models for the Internet market because of the unpredictable
rate of growth of Internet use, the rapidly changing models of doing business on
the Internet and the Internet's relatively low barriers to entry. As a result,
and because of the other risks discussed in this prospectus, it may be likely
that our actual results will not meet the expectations of public market analysts
and investors in future periods. If this occurs, the price of our common stock
will likely fall.
OUR COMMON STOCK IS SUBJECT TO "PENNY STOCK" RULES.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") has adopted
Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes
relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than
$5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject
to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless
exempt, the rules require: (i) that a broker or dealer approve a person's
account for transactions in penny stocks; and (ii) the broker or dealer receive
from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the
identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a
person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must (i)
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person;
and (ii) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks
are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and
experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of
transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to
any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the
Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, (i)
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability
determination; and (ii) that the broker or dealer received a signed, written
agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Disclosure also has to be
made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and
in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer
and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the
rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock
transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent
price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the
limited market in penny stocks

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
Our common stock trades on the NASD Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board
under the symbol "ONEV." The Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board is sponsored by the
National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) and is a network of security
dealers who buy and sell stocks.
For the periods indicated, the following table sets forth the high and
low bid prices per share of common stock. These prices represent inter-dealer
quotations without retail markup, markdown, or commission and may not
necessarily represent actual transactions.

*(as of August 28, 2002)
As of August 28, 2002, our common stock shares were held by 3,035
stockholders of record. We believe that the number of beneficial owners is
substantially greater than the number of record holders because a significant
portion of our outstanding common stock is held of record in broker "street
names" for the benefit of individual investors. The transfer agent of our common
stock is Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc., 3200 Cherry Creek Drive South, Suite
430, Denver, Colorado 80209.
DIVIDEND POLICY
Our board of directors determines any payment of dividends. We do not
expect to authorize the payment of cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any
future decision with respect to dividends will depend on future earnings,
operations, capital requirements and availability, restrictions in future
financing agreements, and other business and financial considerations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OUR PLAN OF OPERATION SHOULD
BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE RELATED NOTES. THIS

OVERVIEW
With millions of PC-based voice products deployed globally, One Voice
is one of the voice sectors top technology providers behind Microsoft. One Voice
has the products and technology to develop voice driven user interfaces to allow
the Home Video Entertainment industry to deliver to their end users a "Voice
Experience". A "Voice Experience" integrates the latest voice technology and
multi-media content to allow users to interact with their computers in a
multitude of new ways. User's can now navigate through content, surf the
Internet, ask questions, participate in two-way conversations, search for
information and play games by engaging their computers in an interactive spoken
dialogue.
In the telecommunications sector, One Voice has developed a
server-based, scalable voice technology platform that targets the mobile
communications market. The MobileVoice(TM) Platform operates, delivers and
supports a comprehensive suite of text messaging and two-way voice service
applications, i.e., all using voice interface. One Voice is the first and only
company to offer free-form Voice-to-Text Email, SMS, Instant Messaging and
Paging from any phone all by voice. It was designed based on years of voice
technology R&D and patented technology. The platform is easy to support and
maintain and supports all digital and analog mobile handsets. The system
delivers high accuracy performance in all mobile modes and environments. The
system operates in a speaker independent mode for several services including
Voice-Activated Dialing, Email Readback and Voice Mail. For Voice-to-Text
messaging the system can be trained to recognize the user's speech in just seven
minutes. Once training is completed, the system allows subscribers to send
free-form SMS, Email and Paging messages to anyone, anytime.
On January 9, 2002, we announced a partnering with OZ Communications
Inc., a Unified Messaging/Presence Management company, to co-develop advanced
solutions for the wireless and enterprise markets. The partnership promises to
leverage each company's core competences to bring new, state-of-the-art Presence
and Instant Messaging solutions to markets around the world. This announcement
also marked the completion of our integration with the OZ platform creating a
complete PC-to-Phone instant messaging solution for enterprise and wireless
carriers. Subsequently, OZ and One Voice have participated in joint
demonstrations and customer proposals.
On January 16, 2002, we announced our membership in Wireless Village,
the Mobile Instant Messaging and Presence Services (IMPS) Initiative. Founded in
2001 by Telecom industry leaders Ericsson, Motorola and Nokia, Wireless Village
has gathered industry experts and leading companies in Instant Messaging to
generate pre-standards specifications, provide interoperability and to build a
community of supporting organizations. The membership will give One Voice an
opportunity to participate in the definition and evaluation of standards
including the use of its voice technology in all forms of Instant Messaging. One
Voice plans to incorporate these key standards into its MobileVoice(TM) services
for wireless carriers.
On February 5, 2002, we received a Notice of Allowance from the U.S.
Patent and Trademark Office regarding our patent entitled "Object Interactive
User Interface Using Speech Recognition and Natural Language Processing". This
patent, filed in October 1999, is the first of a series of 4th Generation voice
technology patents covering human to computer interaction with Natural Language
Processing (NLP) intelligence and Speech Recognition input from desktop,
embedded and wireless devices. One Voice is now entering the final patent stage
by filing the appropriate issuance documents and fees and anticipates formal
issuance in the coming months. Upon issuance, the patent will be available for
viewing on both the One Voice and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office web
sites.
On April 1, 2002, we announced that we were selected by Warner Home
Video ("WHV") to incorporate our industry leading voice technology on the Harry
Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone DVD. Our technology was distributed on every
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone DVD globally in six languages. We estimate
11
the distribution of this title alone to exceed 10 million copies. Under this
agreement, WHV agrees to exclusively utilize One Voice as its preferred
developer of voice technology and to grant us a right of first negotiation for
additional titles. This agreement puts One Voice in a very strong position in
the industry since we currently believe that we have no competitors.
Our initial estimates are over 1 million unique installations of our
voice technology have occurred from the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
DVD with very positive feedback from WHV regarding the performance and
acceptance of our technology. In July, 2002 we completed a second DVD title for
WHV, whose title is to be announced shortly. We currently have sent proposals,
for additional DVD licensing, out to Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment/Sony
Pictures and New Line Cinema. There are no guarantees that either proposal will
be accepted.
On May 21, 2002, we announced that we had signed a sales agreement for
our voice solutions in the Interactive Home Entertainment market with
InterActual Technologies, Inc., a leading developer of digital video
entertainment for major motion picture studios. Under the terms of the
agreement, InterActual will actively sell One Voice's technology in upcoming DVD
titles that contain InterActual's technology. One Voice worked jointly with
InterActual to bring voice technology to the blockbuster DVD Harry Potter and
the Sorcerer's Stone produced by Warner Home Video. InterActual has a very
impressive track record with the major studios and will be a valuable partner in
targeting this fast-growing market.
On June 26, 2000, we announced the introduction of MobileVoice(TM)
Enterprise - a complete communications and messaging solution designed for small
to large corporate use. This scalable solution includes One Voice's advanced
voice technology for Voice-Activated Dialing, E-Mail, SMS, Instant Messaging and
Paging. One Voice is currently forming distribution partnerships to accelerate
penetration of their services in the Enterprise market. Improving inter-company
and intra-company communications is an immediate way for enterprises to reduce
costs, accelerate key business processes and improve workflow. The MobileVoice
Platform is uniquely positioned to deliver powerful and cost-effective solutions
in the corporate sector. It was designed for high availability and reliability,
and can be scaled from a single server solution capable of handling small
companies to a multi-server solution for large geographically dispersed
enterprises. The Enterprise solution, which resides behind the corporate
firewall, offers mobile access to business critical information while
maintaining the highest levels of corporate security. Additionally, the solution
works with any mobile phone make or model and on all wireless carrier networks.
Our efforts in this sector will complement our focus on the wireless and
wireline markets and will be an additional source of revenue for the company.
On July 1, 2002, we announced impressive results from a major
quantitative research study among current mobile phone subscribers in the U.S.
The study was conducted with subscribers from carriers including: Verizon,
Cingular, AT&T Wireless, Sprint PCS and Nextel. As representative of the entire
subscriber base of these carriers, the results were overwhelming in terms of
demand and willingness to pay for One Voice's MobileVoice Activated Dialing,
MobileVoice Send and MobileVoice Read services. The study was paid for by One
Voice and performed by the independent firm Harris Interactive, one of the
world's largest and most respected market research firms and creator of the
well-known Harris Poll(TM). The study delivered results that are highly accurate
(+/- 4%) in terms of representation of the entire customer base and the ability
to project the results. The study also showed that an overwhelming majority
(over 75%) of mobile phone users were interested in MobileVoice and were willing
to pay an average of $20 per month incremental to their current phone bill.
Specifically, the percentages of mobile phone users indicating interest in
MobileVoice were as follows: MobileVoice Activated Dialing (76%), MobileVoice
Send - sending E-Mail, Instant and SMS messages (63%) and MobileVoice Read -
E-Mail reader (49%). They highlight the opportunity for the MobileVoice services
and the ability to generate incremental revenue, with high margins, for telco
carriers who are under increasing profit pressure and are looking for ways to
generate incremental revenue from their existing infrastructure and handsets,
while minimizing capital expenditures. The MobileVoice services utilize existing
infrastructure equipment, require little upfront carrier cost and can be offered
to 100% of a carrier's subscriber base immediately, regardless of the phone
make, model or technology (GSM, CDMA, TDMA, iDEN).
On July 9, 2002, we announced we had joined Microsoft, Cisco, Intel,
Comverse and several other industry leading companies in the SALT (Speech
Application Language Tags) Forum. The SALT Forum is chartered with developing an
open, platform-independent solution for telephony and multimodal speech
applications. This Forum brings together a diverse group of companies sharing a
common interest in developing and promoting speech technologies for multimodal
applications.

On July 22, 2002, we demonstrated our MobileVoice solutions at the Cool
Demo Lounge portion of the VOX2002 conference held at the Hyatt Regency
Embarcadero in San Francisco, California. The Kelsey Group, which hosted the
event, selected One Voice as one of a small number of industry leaders, to
demonstrate breakthrough wireless applications. The Kelsey Group expects
voice-activation of `everyday' services to have a much needed multiplier effect
on telecommunications carriers' top line revenues. The conference focused on
voice and wireless applications and their use in a variety of markets. Attendees
include telecommunications operators, unified messaging vendors and corporations
interested in applying voice technology in a variety of different solutions. The
Cool Demo Lounge event focused on hot new applications that solve real world
problems and drive return on investment in the wireless telecommunications
industry. During our presentation, we sent a voice-to-text message consisting of
"The Pledge of Allegiance" from a mobile phone on stage to multiple mobile
devices in the audience.
In July 2002, we were selected by SAIC (Science Applications
International Corporation), a leading technology integrator for the government
and telecommunications industries, to be included in their Request For
Information (RFI) for a telematics solution for a large automotive manufacturer.
We were selected for inclusion in this RFI based on our technology and expertise
in the voice sector. SAIC has assembled a team of companies, including One
Voice, to provide a telematics solution for the requesting automotive
manufacturer. Our position on the team would be to create the voice interface
for the project. The next step in this process is for SAIC to be selected to
submit a proposal, known as a Request For Proposal or RFP. There is no guarantee
that SAIC will be selected to submit a proposal nor if a proposal is submitted
that it will be accepted.
In July 2002 we were selected by an educational software company to
develop a prototype voice driven PC based application. Both companies jointly
agreed to work together to add our voice technology into one of their existing
PC based educational titles. This prototype was completed in August 2002 and
will be evaluated for full deployment in their educational titles. If accepted,
we anticipate this project to be royalty based with domestic distribution. There
are no guarantees that this prototype will lead to a contract nor subsequent
distribution of any kind.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At June 30, 2002, we had working capital of $404,432 as compared with
$2,203,489 at June 30, 2001.
Net cash used for operating activities was $754,176 for the quarter
ended June 30, 2002 compared to $1,305,661 for the quarter ended June 30, 2001.
From inception on January 1, 1999 to June 30, 2002, net cash used for operating
activities was $17,354,962.
Net cash used for investing activities was $8,976 for the quarter ended
June 30, 2002 compared to $62,145 for the quarter ended June 30, 2001. From
inception on January 1, 1999 to June 30, 2002, net cash used for investing
activities was $4,608,549.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $723,831 for the quarter
ended June 30, 2002 compared to $840,020 for the quarter ended June 30, 2001.
From inception on January 1, 1999 to June 30, 2002 net cash provided by
financing activities was $22,733,747.
We incurred a net loss of $2,110,540 during the quarter ended June 30,
2002, and had an accumulated deficit of $23,702,311. Our losses through June
2002 included amortization of software licensing agreements and development
costs, salaries and wages, interest and general operating expenses. Sales of our
equity securities have allowed us to maintain a positive cash flow balance from
financing activities.
Cash flow from sales began in the first quarter 2002.
On May 7, 2002, we closed a non-exclusive equity financing agreement
for up to $5.8 million with Stonestreet Limited Partnership, with an initial put
demand by us for $800,000 which funded at closing. The initial $800,000 was in
exchange for 2,666,666 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.30 per share.
In addition, at closing, we issued 300,000 warrants to purchase shares of our
common stock at an exercise price of $0.43 per share. We also paid a one-time
finders fee of $48,000 and issued 75,000 warrants with an exercise price of
$0.43 per share. For the remaining $5 million, on a monthly basis, we can
exercise our right to require Stonestreet to purchase a discretionary amount of
our common stock, as determined by us, subject to the terms of the agreement.
The monthly amount we can require Stonestreet to purchase is between $100,000
and $400,000, depending on average volume levels and price, from which the
offering price of our common stock is determined on a formula as set forth in
the agreement.
On August 8, 2002, we repriced Stonestreet's May 2002 investment and
issued them 833,334 shares of common stock. In addition, we repriced
Stonestreet's common stock purchase warrants exercise price to $.20 per share.
On August 8, 2002, we entered into securities purchase agreement with
two accredited investor, Stonestreet Limited Partnership and Alpha Capital
Aktiengesellschaft for the issuance of 4% convertible debentures in the
aggregate amount of $650,000. The debentures are convertible into common stock
at a conversion price of the lower of $.242 or 80% of the average of the five
lowest closing bid prices for the common stock thirty days prior to conversion.
In addition, an aggregate of 491,400 common stock purchase warrants were issued
to the investors. Each common stock purchase warrant has an exercise price of
$.252. The commissions for the transactions were 8%. The offering of convertible
debentures was exempt from registration under Rule 506 of Regulation D and under
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. No advertising or general solicitation was
employed in offering the securities. All persons were accredited investors,
represented that they were capable of analyzing the merits and risks of their
investment.
16
The losses through the quarter ended June 30, 2002 were due to minimal
revenue and our operating expenses, with the majority of expenses in the areas
of: debt issue costs, salaries, legal fees, consulting fees, insurance,
licensing cost, as well as amortization expense relating to software
development. We face considerable risk in completing each of our business plan
steps, including, but not limited to: a lack of funding or available credit to
continue development and undertake product rollout; potential cost overruns; a
lack of interest in our solutions in the market on the part of wireless carriers
or other customers; potential reduction in wireless carriers which could lead to
significant delays in consummating revenue bearing contracts; and/or a shortfall
of funding due to an inability to raise capital in the securities market. Since
further funding is required, and if none is received, we would be forced to rely
on our existing cash in the bank or secure short-term loans. This may hinder our
ability to complete our product development until such time as necessary funds
could be raised. In such a restricted cash flow scenario, we would delay all
cash intensive activities including certain product development and strategic
initiatives described above.

BUSINESS
OVERVIEW
One Voice Technologies, Inc. is the industry's founder of 4th
Generation voice solutions for the Telecom, Telematics, TV/Internet and
Interactive Multimedia markets. One Voice's technology allows people to use
everyday speech to send and receive e-mail, instant messages and SMS (Short
Message Service), control devices, access information and purchase products. The
Company's solutions have the opportunity to revolutionize the way people use
phones (wired and wireless), PC's, PDA's, TV's, Internet appliances and
automobiles by making them more mobile, convenient, safer and easier to use.
Located in San Diego, California, the Company has 13 full-time employees and is
traded on the NASDAQ exchange under the symbol "ONEV." One Voice commenced
operations as Conversational Systems, Inc. on January 1, 1999 as a privately
held California corporation, and on July 14, 1999, merged into Dead On, Inc., a
publicly traded company incorporated in Nevada in 1995. On September 9, 1999,
the company officially changed its name to One Voice Technologies, Inc.
One Voice's solutions can be server-based or embedded in devices, each of which
incorporates the most sophisticated 4th Generation Voice Technology in the
market today. Over the past six years, One Voice's engineers have developed
their Intelligent Voice Platform(TM) (IVP) based on patented and patent-pending
speech technology. Designed from the ground up, the system has been optimized
for high performance in any environment and can handle accents, background noise
and data communication limitations that are common in mobile environments around
the world. One Voice's suite of applications offers the only mobile, completely
integrated messaging and Voice Activated Dialing solution. This suite offers
users a comprehensive, voice-based messaging and dialing solution that is
completely hands-free and much faster and easier to use than competitive
products.
MARKET OPPORTUNITY
------------------
The presence of voice technology as an interface in mobile communications is of
paramount importance. Voice interface technology makes portable communications
products mobile, more effective and safer to use. One Voice's development
efforts currently are focused on the Telecom market and more specifically on
mobile communications and mobile messaging. The Messaging market, which has both
business and consumer market applications including: E-mail, Instant Messages,
SMS (Short Message Service), and Paging, is extremely large and is growing at an
astonishing rate. Over six trillion text messages are sent globally every year,
and messaging has also shown the consistent ability to generate significant
revenue. One Voice solutions enable users to send, intelligently route and
receive text messages using voice from any type of phone (wired or wireless)
anywhere in the world.
One Voice's solutions address the entire phone market including analog, digital,
CDMA, TDMA, GSM, iDen and wired phones, allowing telephony carriers and users to
deploy solutions quickly with little additional effort. Given the growing
competition in the wireless markets and the opportunities presented by the
Mobile Internet, One Voice's 4th Generation Voice Technology is well positioned
for commercialization.
One Voice is focused on communications solutions that are mobile, not just
portable. Devices like PDAs, Laptops and Cell Phones are highly portable because
they are easily transported from location to location, but they are not
necessarily mobile (i.e. easy to use while one is moving). Mobile solutions are
not only portable, but they are easy and safe to operate while moving. Portable
solutions such as cell phones, PDAs and laptops are not easy to operate safely
while operating motor vehicles, especially in crowded and intense traffic. Case
in point, New York has passed legislation requiring hands-free use of cell
phones and any other communication device during the operation of an automobile
citing safety concerns. Currently 42 other states are considering similar
legislation. Additional legislation could significantly increase the immediate
demand for a completely integrated and voice activated mobile communication
solution. One Voice's technology supports hands-free operation and will bring
mobile phones and other devices into compliance with the newly adopted
legislation.

TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
-------------------
To date, widespread applications of voice technology for use in mobile
communication have been very basic, recognizing a limited number of words and
using rigid menu systems delivering a constrained amount of content. One Voice's
technology positions itself uniquely in the Voice Market. The Company's
Intelligent Voice Platform(TM) (IVP) uses patented Artificial Intelligence and
Natural Language Processing, which is highly intelligent, with the ability to
identify individual users, tap into a database of user specific information, and
dynamically learn and leverage a vocabulary of over 300,000 words. The
technology employs a flexible architecture, allowing it to reside and operate on
a device itself, in a server-based architecture or a mix of both, making it
extremely adaptable to different usage models. The IVP also provides
anytime/anywhere access to information, reduces training time and lowers costs
for both consumers and businesses. The technology is functionally superior and
extremely easy to use. Users can simply download information into the One Voice
server from e-mail applications directly, and the Voice Activated Dialing (VAD)
system is operational with no voice training needed.
19
One Voice has also developed several other technologies that enhance the
offerings of the IVP. MultiSite(TM) is a proprietary context-based searching
technology that finds multiple websites for any category and retrieves them
simultaneously. It is particularly helpful when performing Internet searching on
devices such as mobile phones. VoiceSite(TM) is a proprietary technology that
makes websites voice interactive. It allows companies to voice enable their
sites quickly and easily, as well as suggestively create a customized experience
for visitors.
COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
---------------------
One Voice is the industry's first and only provider of 4th Generation voice
technology. The evolution of speech technology can be broken into four
generations as follows:
GENERATION 1 systems require minimal processing power and storage and are often
used in embedded devices. These solutions can typically recognize 20-30 words or
less and are usually founded embedded in electronic devices such as phones,
toys, etc. Due to its limitations, this technology is typically used for limited
command & control functions or applications. Companies focused in this space
include Conversay and IBM among others.
GENERATION 2 systems expand the recognition capabilities seen in Generation 1
increasing the vocabulary to potentially hundreds of words. These systems
frequently use menus to support the delivery of content as seen in Interactive
Voice Response (IVR) systems for airline reservations, banking and Voice
Portals. Due to the use of menus, these systems can typically deliver a maximum
of 6-8 areas of content horizontally and 3-4 layers down in the menu trees
before running the risk of "user overload." Companies focused in this space
include Speechworks International, Nuance Communications, i3 Mobile, Preferred
Voice, HeyAnita, Bevocal and TellMe among others.
GENERATION 3 systems expand the recognition capabilities significantly to
hundreds of thousands of words. The systems can support continuous, free-form
transcription of voice into text. These systems are typically used for desktop
dictation applications running on PC's in the sectors of word processing,
medical and legal transcription. Companies focused in this space include IBM,
ScanSoft and Philips.
GENERATION 4 systems take the capabilities of all the previous generations and
adds powerful expert systems and Artificial Intelligence capabilities to allow
the solutions to not only recognize words, but also understand their meaning.
This opens the doors to higher degrees of personalization, more robust system
interaction and more advanced applications such as Voice-to-Text Messaging on a
phone and full Internet searching. One Voice is currently the only company in
the voice technology sector that offers 4th Generation voice technology.
MAJOR MARKET ADVANTAGES
-----------------------
WIRELESS CARRIERS looking to drive incremental revenue could utilize One Voice's
technology to expand mobile messaging offerings. One Voice services apply to
100% of the addressable market, where extensive research clearly indicates
strong demand. One Voice can add significant fundamental value by creating
revenue opportunities through: 1) mobile use minutes, 2) recurring fees for
subscription services, 3) m-commerce transactions and 4) license fees for
voice-enabling content. One Voice's solutions can also play a key role in
helping wireless carriers differentiate their brand and service offerings,
attracting new users and reducing churn. Additionally, the interoperability of
One Voice's technology gives it the ability to link multiple wireless carrier
networks, creating greater flexibility and driving consumer demand.
INSTANT AND UNIFIED MESSAGING: OPERATORS of Instant Messaging and Unified
Messaging systems could significantly expand market share and drive revenues
through integration of the Company's technology with its messaging capabilities.
With One Voice, a mobile phone can be used to send instant messages, similar to
a PC or PDA. This ability provides a differentiation for the service and thus
drives additional revenue from other channels, such as Internet and e-mail
services.
INFRASTRUCTURE PROVIDERS: Many of the leading mobile device hardware
manufacturers also provide infrastructure services to wireless carriers. One
Voice's technology provides a point of differentiation which could be bundled
with infrastructure. Wireless carriers could then offer the technology to their
subscribers, driving mobile phone minutes and increasing revenues.
20
VOICE TECHNOLOGY THROUGH PLATFORM INDEPENDENCE: A key advantage of the One Voice
technology is that it is platform independent. The technology is adaptable and
highly intelligent allowing it to operate on a device itself, in a server
environment or a combination of the two. This creates expansive market
opportunities including usage in mobile phones, PC's, wired and wireless
handheld devices and other consumer electronics products.

AMENDED AND RESTATED 1999 STOCK OPTION PLAN
Our Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Option Plan (the 1999 Plan)
authorizes us to grant to our directors, employees, consultants and advisors
both incentive and non-qualified stock options to purchase shares of our Common
Stock. As of December 31, 2001, our Board of Directors had reserved 3,000,000
shares for issuance under the 1999 Plan, of which 2,078,625 shares were subject
to outstanding options and 921,375 shares remained available for future grants.
Our Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Board (the Plan
Administrator) administers the 1999 Plan. The Plan Administrator selects the
recipients to whom options are granted and determines the number of shares to be
awarded. Options granted under the 1999 Plan are exercisable at a price
determined by the Plan Administrator at the time of the grant, but in no event
24
will the option price for any incentive stock option be lower than the fair
market value for our Common Stock on the date of the grant. Options become
exercisable at such times and in such installments as the Plan Administrator
provides in the terms of each individual option agreement. In general, the Plan
Administrator is given broad discretion to issue options and to accept a wide
variety of consideration (including shares of our Common Stock and promissory
notes) in payment for the exercise price of options. The 1999 Plan was
authorized by the Board of Directors and stockholders.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
THE FOLLOWING DESCRIPTION OF OUR CAPITAL STOCK IS A SUMMARY AND IS
QUALIFIED IN ITS ENTIRETY BY THE PROVISIONS OF OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION,
WITH AMENDMENTS, ALL OF WHICH HAVE BEEN FILED AS EXHIBITS TO OUR REGISTRATION
STATEMENT OF WHICH THIS PROSPECTUS IS A PART.
Our Amended Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of
100,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share, and 10,000,000
shares of preferred stock, $.001 par value per share. Holders of shares of
common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to be voted
on by the stockholders. Holders of common stock have cumulative voting rights.
Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if
any, as may be declared, from time to time by the Board of Directors in its
discretion, from funds legally available therefor. In the event of a
liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, the holders of shares of
common stock are entitled to share pro rata all assets remaining after payment
in full of all liabilities. Holders of common stock have no preemptive or other
subscription rights, and there are no conversion rights or redemption or sinking
fund provisions with respect to such shares. The Board of Directors, from time
to time in its sole discretion, has the authority to fix the powers, rights,
qualifications, limitations, and restrictions pertaining to the preferred stock.
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Under the Nevada General Corporation Law and our Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, and our Bylaws, our directors will have no personal
liability to us or our stockholders for monetary damages incurred as the result
of the breach or alleged breach by a director of his "duty of care." This
provision does not apply to the directors' (i) acts or omissions that involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, (ii) acts or
omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the
corporation or its stockholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the
part of the director, (iii) approval of any transaction from which a director
derives an improper personal benefit, (iv) acts or omissions that show a
reckless disregard for the director's duty to the corporation or its
stockholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have
been aware, in the ordinary course of performing a director's duties, of a risk
of serious injury to the corporation or its stockholders, (v) acts or omissions
that constituted an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an
abdication of the director's duty to the corporation or its stockholders, or
(vi) approval of an unlawful dividend, distribution, stock repurchase or
redemption. This provision would generally absolve directors of personal
liability for negligence in the performance of duties, including gross
negligence.
The effect of this provision in our Articles of Incorporation and
Bylaws is to eliminate the rights of our Company and our stockholders (through
stockholder's derivative suits on behalf of our Company) to recover monetary
damages against a director for breach of his fiduciary duty of care as a
director (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent
behavior) except in the situations described in clauses (i) through (vi) above.
This provision does not limit nor eliminate the rights of our Company or any
stockholder to seek non-monetary relief such as an injunction or rescission in
the event of a breach of a director's duty of care. In addition, our Bylaws
provide that if the Nevada General Corporation Law is amended to authorize the
future elimination or limitation of the liability of a director, then the
liability of the directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent
permitted by the law, as amended. The Nevada General Corporation Law grants
corporations the right to indemnify their directors, officers, employees and
agents in accordance with applicable law.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 (the "Act" or "Securities Act") may be permitted to directors,
officers or persons controlling our Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
28
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling stockholder and any of their pledgees, assignees and
successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares
of 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 stockholder may use any one or more of the
following methods when selling shares:
-- ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the
broker-dealer solicits the purchaser;
-- 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;
-- purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the
broker-dealer for its account;
-- an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the
applicable exchange;
-- privately-negotiated transactions;
-- short sales;
-- broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholder to sell a
specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
-- a combination of any such methods of sale; and
-- any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The selling stockholder may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
The selling stockholder may pledge their shares to their brokers under
the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling stockholder defaults
on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged
shares.
The selling stockholder may also engage in short sales against the box,
puts and calls and other transactions in our securities or derivatives of our
securities and may sell or deliver shares in connection with these trades. The
selling stockholder may pledge their shares of common stock to their brokers
under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling stockholder
defaults on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the
pledged shares.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholder may arrange for other
broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions
or discounts from the selling stockholder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as
agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be
negotiated. The selling stockholder do not expect these commissions and
discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
The selling stockholder shall be deemed to be an "underwriter" 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 or discounts under the Securities Act.
We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the
registration of the shares, including fees and disbursements of counsel to the
selling stockholder, but excluding brokerage commissions or underwriter
discounts. We and the selling stockholder have agreed to indemnify each other
against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act.
29
PENNY STOCK
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") has adopted
Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes
relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than
$5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject
to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless
exempt, the rules require: (i) that a broker or dealer approve a person's
account for transactions in penny stocks; and (ii) the broker or dealer receive
from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the
identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a
person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must (i)
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person;
and (ii) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks
are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and
experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of
transactions in penny stocks. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to
any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the
Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form, (i)
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability
determination; and (ii) that the broker or dealer received a signed, written
agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Disclosure also has to be
made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and
in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer
and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the
rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock
transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent
price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the
limited market in penny stocks.
30
SELLING STOCKHOLDER
The table below sets forth information concerning the resale of the
shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. We will not receive any
proceeds from the resale of the common stock by the selling stockholders. We
will receive proceeds from the exercise of the warrants. Assuming all the shares
registered below are sold by the selling stockholders, none of the selling
stockholders will continue to own any shares of our common stock.
The following table also sets forth the name of each person who is

The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned is determined in
accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 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 stockholder has sole or shared voting power or investment power and
also any shares, which the selling stockholder has the right to acquire within
60 days. The actual number of shares of common stock issuable upon the
conversion of the convertible preferred stock is subject to adjustment depending
on, among other factors, the future market price of the common stock, and could
be materially less or more than the number estimated in the table.
(1) Includes 200% of the shares issuable upon conversion of the
convertible notes, based on current market prices. Because the
number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the
convertible note is dependent in part upon the market price of the
common stock prior to a conversion, the actual number of shares of
common stock that will be issued upon conversion will fluctuate
daily and cannot be determined at this time. However the selling
stockholder has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to
convert or exercise its warrants and receive shares of our common
stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it
and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not
exceed 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common
stock.
(2) Includes 378,000 shares underlying warrants that are currently
exercisable at an exercise price of $0.252 per share. In
accordance with rule 13d-3 under the securities exchange act of
1934, Konrad Ackerman may be deemed a control person of the shares
owned by such entity.
(3) Includes (i) 3,500,000 shares of common stock and (ii) 300,000
shares underlying warrants that are currently exercisable at an
exercise price of $0.20 per share. Michael Finkelstein, an
unaffiliated third party, has investment power over the shares
owned by such entity.
(4) Assumes that all securities registered will be sold.

FINANCING TERMS OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES
To obtain funding for our ongoing operations, we entered into a
Subscription Agreement with the selling stockholders on August 8, 2002 for the
sale of (i) $650,000 in convertible notes and (ii) a warrants to buy 491,500
shares of our common stock.
The notes bear interest at 4%, mature on August 8, 2004, and are
convertible into our common stock, at the selling stockholders' option, at the
lower of (i) $0.242 or (ii) 80% of the average of the five lowest closing bid
prices for the common stock on a principal market for the 30 trading days before
but not including the conversion date. VWAP means the daily volume weighted
average prices of our common stock. The note may not be paid, in whole or in
part, before August 8, 2004 without the consent of the holder. The full
principal amount of the convertible notes are due upon default under the terms
of convertible notes. The warrants are exercisable until August 8, 2005 at a
purchase price of $.252 per share.
The conversion price of the notes and the exercise price of the
warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances such as if we pay a stock
dividend, subdivide or combine outstanding shares of common stock into a greater
or lesser number of shares, or take such other actions as would otherwise result
in dilution of the selling stockholder's position.
The selling stockholders has contractually agreed to restrict its
ability to convert or exercise its warrants and receive shares of our common
stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it and its
affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 9.99% of the then
issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
A complete copy of the Subscription Agreement and related documents was
filed with the SEC as exhibits to our Form SB-2 relating to this prospectus.
SAMPLE CONVERSION CALCULATION
The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of a note
is determined by dividing that portion of the principal of the note to be
converted and interest, if any, by the conversion price. For example, assuming
conversion of $650,000 of notes on September 3, 2002, a conversion price of
$0.252 per share, and the payment of accrued interest in the approximate amount
of $2,152 in additional shares rather than in cash, the number of shares
issuable upon conversion would be:
$650,000 + $2,152 = 2,587,904 shares
-----------------
$0.252

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Board of Directors
One Voice Technologies, Inc.
San Diego, California
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of One Voice Technologies, Inc.,
a Nevada Corporation (a development stage enterprise) as of December 31, 2001,
and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows
for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, and for the period since
inception on January 1, 1999 to December 31, 2001. 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 auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. 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 provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of One Voice Technologies, Inc. as
of December 31, 2001, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 and for the period since inception on
January 1, 1999 to December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As shown on the financial statements,
the Company has incurred net losses from operations and has negative cash flows
from operations. These factors, among others as discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. Managements plans regarding those matters also are
described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND 2000
(1) Organization:
Conversational Systems, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the
State of California on April 8, 1991. The Company commenced operations
in 1999.
Effective June 22, 1999, pursuant to a Merger Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization between Dead On, Inc. ("acquiree") and Conversational
Systems, Inc. a California corporation ("acquiror" or the "Company"),
Dead On, Inc. has been reversed merged into Conversational Systems,
Inc. The Company accounted for the acquisition of Dead On, Inc. using
the purchase method of accounting. The shares of Conversational
Systems were exchanged for 7,000,000 newly issued shares of Dead On,
Inc. Because the former shareholders of Conversational Systems, Inc.
then became the majority shareholders of Dead On, Inc., Conversational
Systems was treated as the acquiror under APB Opinion No. 16,
"Business Combinations."
In July 1999, the Company repurchased and retired 10,000,000 shares of
its common stock, $.001 par value per share. Due to the retirement of
shares, the former shareholders of Conversational Systems, Inc. have
significant control in Dead On, Inc.
Due to the contemplation and timing of the merger between Dead On,
Inc. and Conversational Systems, Inc. and the retirement of 10,000,000
shares of the Company's common stock, these events were accounted for
as a single transaction.
Conversational Systems, Inc. was liquidated with and into Dead On,
Inc., which then changed its legal name to One Voice Technologies,
Inc., a Nevada Corporation.
Going Concern:
The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis
that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates
the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the
normal course of business. The Company incurred a net loss of
$8,778,279 during 2001 and had an accumulated deficit of $19,958,114.
The Company had working capital of $225,679 at December 31, 2001. Cash
flows used for operations amounted to $5,079,807 for the year ended
December 31, 2001. These factors raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern unless the Company
enters into a significant revenue bearing contract. Management is
currently seeking additional equity or debt financing. Additionally,
management is currently pursuing revenue bearing contracts utilizing
various applications of its technology including wireless technology.
See Note 13, Subsequent Events. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is
unable to continue as a going concern.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Business Activity:
The Company develops and markets computer software using Intelligent
Voice Interactive Technology (IVIT(TM)) to website owners in the
United States and other countries.
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 certain
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.
Development Stage Enterprise:
The Company is a development stage company as defined by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 7, "Accounting and Reporting by
Development Stage Enterprises." The Company is devoting substantially
all of its present efforts to establish a new business, which is
unrelated to the business of Dead On, and its planned principal
operations have not yet commenced. All losses accumulated since
inception of One Voice Technologies, Inc. have been considered as part
of the Company's development stage activities.
Fair Value:
The Company's financial instruments consist principally of accounts
payable and notes payable to an individual and related parties as
defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107,
"Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments." The carrying
value of the financial instruments approximate their fair value due to
the short-term nature of these instruments.
Inventory:
Inventory, consisting primarily of finished product, such as
headphones, is valued at lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or
market.
Cash:
Equivalents
-----------
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents include
all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three
months or less which are not securing any corporate obligations.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued:
Cash, Continued:
Concentration
-------------
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at
times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not
experienced any losses in such accounts.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company recognizes revenues when earned in the period in which the
service is provided. The Company's revenue recognition policies are in
compliance with all applicable accounting regulations, including
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") Statement
of Position ("SOP") 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by
SOP 98-4 and SOP 98-9. Any revenues from software arrangements with
multiple elements are allocated to each element of the arrangement
based on the relative fair values using specific objective evidence as
defined in the SOPs. If no such objective evidence exists, revenues
from the arrangements are not recognized until the entire arrangement
is completed and accepted by the customer. Once the amount of the
revenue for each element is determined, the Company recognizes
revenues as each element is completed and accepted by the customer.
For arrangements that require significant production, modification or
customization of software, the entire arrangement is accounted for by
the percentage of completion method, in conformity with Accounting
Research Bulletin ("ARB") No. 45 and SOP 81-1.
Service and license fees are deferred and recognized over the life of
the agreement. Revenues from the sale of products are recognized upon
shipment of the product.
Nonmonetary Transactions:
The Company accounts for nonmonetary transactions based on the fair
values of the assets or services involved in accordance with APB No.
29, "Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions." The cost of a
nonmonetary asset acquired in exchange for another nonmonetary asset
is the fair value of the asset surrendered to obtain it.
Advertising and Promotion Costs:
Advertising and promotion costs are expensed as incurred and
approximated $388,000 and $690,000 for the years ended December 31,
2001 and 2000, respectively.
The Company also engages in barter advertising, which they account for
in accordance with EITF 99-17, determining the fair market value of
the barter advertising based on the fair value of non-barter
advertising. The Company books the revenue and related expenses of
barter advertising up to the extent of the non-barter advertising
during the same period. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the
Company recognized $180,000 in revenues and expenses from barter
transactions. Advertising which did not qualify for recognition under
EITF 99-17, and therefore, is not reflected in these statements,
totaled $87,500.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued:
Property and Equipment:
Property and equipment are valued at cost. Depreciation is being
provided by use of the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the assets, ranging from three to seven years.
Debt with Stock Purchase Warrants:
The proceeds received from debt issued with stock purchase warrants is
allocated between the debt and the warrants, based upon the relative
fair values of the two securities, and the balance of the proceeds is
accounted for as additional paid-in capital. The resulting debt
discount is amortized to expense over the term of the debt instrument,
using the interest method. In the event of settlement of such debt in
advance of the maturity date, an expense is recognized based upon the
difference between the then carrying amount (i.e., face amount less
unamortized discount) and amount of payment.
Debt with Beneficial Conversion Feature:
In January 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board Emerging
Issues Task Force issued EITF 00-27 effective for convertible debt
instruments issued after November 16, 2000. This pronouncement
requires the use of the intrinsic value method for recognition of the
detachable and embedded equity features included with indebtedness,
and requires amortization of the amount associated with the
convertibility feature over the life of the debt instrument rather
than the period for which the instrument first becomes convertible.
Inasmuch as all debt instruments that were entered into prior to
November 16, 2000 and all of the debt discount relating to the
beneficial conversion feature was previously recognized as expense in
accordance with EITF 98-5, there is no impact on these financial
statements.
Software Development Costs:
The Company accounts for their software development costs in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86,
"Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or
Otherwise Marketed," ("SFAS No. 86"). SFAS No. 86 requires the Company
to capitalize the direct costs and allocate overhead associated with
the development of software products. Initial costs are charged to
operations as research prior to the development of a detailed program
design or a working model. Costs incurred subsequent to the product
release, and research and development performed under contract are
charged to operations. Capitalized costs are amortized over the
estimated product life of four years on the straight-line basis.
Unamortized costs are carried at the lower of book value or net
realizable value.
Amortization expense totaled $383,115 and $78,102 for the years ended
December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Accumulated amortization as
of December 31, 2001 amounted to $461,217.
Comprehensive Loss:
Comprehensive loss consists of net loss only, and accordingly, a
Statement of Comprehensive Loss is not presented.

Trademarks and Patents:
The Company's trademark costs consist of legal fees paid in connection
with trademarks. The Company amortizes trademarks using the
straight-line method over the period of estimated benefit, generally
four years. Amortization expense charged for the years ended December
31, 2001 and 2000 totaled $53,226 and $24,845, respectively.
Accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2001 amounted to $78,071.
The Company's patent costs consist of legal fees paid in connection
with patents pending. The Company will amortize patents using the
straight-line method over the period of estimated benefit, generally
five years. There was no amortization expense charged for the year
ended December 31, 2001, as the patents are pending.
The Company periodically evaluates whether events or circumstances
have occurred that may affect the estimated useful life or the
recoverability of the remaining balance of the patent and trademarks.
Impairment of the assets is triggered when the estimated future
undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying amount of the
intangible asset. If the events or circumstances indicate that the
remaining balance of the assets may be permanently impaired, such
potential impairment will be measured based upon the difference
between the carrying amount of the assets and the fair value of such
assets, determined using the estimated future discounted cash flows
generated.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share:
For the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, the per share data is
based on the weighted average number of common and common equivalent
shares outstanding, and are calculated in accordance with Staff
Accounting Bulletin of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SAB)
No. 98 whereby common stock, options or warrants to purchase common
stock or other potentially dilutive instruments issued for nominal
consideration must be reflected in basic and diluted per share
calculation for all periods in a manner similar to a stock split, even
if anti-dilutive. Accordingly, in computing basic earnings per share,
nominal issuances of common stock are reflected in a manner similar to
a stock split or dividend. Common stock equivalents, consisting of
2,078,625 and 916,325 stock options, 1,457,567 and 882,414 stock
warrants, and convertible debentures estimated at 2.7 million shares
(2001), using assumed conversion rate of $0.20 have not been included
in the computation of diluted weighted average number of common shares
outstanding, as their effect would be anti-dilutive for December 31,
2001 and 2000, respectively.

Income Taxes:
Deferred income taxes are reported using the liability method.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary
differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable
temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences
between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax
bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when,
in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some
portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of
changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
New Accounting Pronouncements:
In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 "Business Combinations."
SFAS No. 141 supersedes Accounting Principles Board ("APB") No. 16 and
requires that any business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001
be accounted for as a purchase; therefore, eliminating the
pooling-of-interest method defined in APB 16. The statement is
effective for any business combination initiated after June 30, 2001
and shall apply to all business combinations accounted for by the
purchase method for which the date of acquisition is July 1, 2001 or
later. The adoption did not have a material impact to the Company's
financial position or results of operations, since the Company has not
participated in such activities covered under this pronouncement after
the effective date.
In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangibles." SFAS No. 142 addresses the initial recognition,
measurement and amortization of intangible assets acquired
individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired
in a business combination) and addresses the amortization provisions
for excess cost over fair value of net assets acquired or intangibles
acquired in a business combination. The statement is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and is effective July
1, 2001 for any intangibles acquired in a business combination
initiated after June 30, 2001. The Company does not expect the
adoption to have a material impact to the Company's financial position
or results of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Continued:
In October 2001, the FASB recently issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting
for Asset Retirement Obligations," which requires companies to record
the fair value of a liability for asset retirement obligations in the
period in which they are incurred. The statement applies to a
company's legal obligations associated with the retirement of a
tangible long-lived asset that results from the acquisition,
construction, and development or through the normal operation of a
long-lived asset. When a liability is initially recorded, the company
would capitalize the cost, thereby increasing the carrying amount of
the related asset. The capitalized asset retirement cost is
depreciated over the life of the respective asset while the liability
is accreted to its present value. Upon settlement of the liability,
the obligation is settled at its recorded amount or the company incurs
a gain or loss. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning
after June 30, 2002. The Company does not expect the adoption to have
a material impact to the Company's financial position or results of
operations.
In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". Statement 144 addresses
the accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of
long-lived assets. The statement provides a single accounting model
for long-lived assets to be disposed of. New criteria must be met to
classify the asset as an asset held-for-sale. This statement also
focuses on reporting the effects of a disposal of a segment of a
business. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2001. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a
material impact to the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

5% Convertible Note Payable
---------------------------
In October 2000, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with an
investment company to issue a total of $10,000,000 convertible notes
payable with interest at 5% per annum and 231,884 common stock purchase
warrants. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the
Company's common stock at an exercise price of $9.76 per share. In October
2000, the Company issued $2,000,000 of convertible notes and the warrants.
A payment of interest only is payable on the conversion dates, as defined
in the agreement. The remaining principal balance of the note is payable in
full in October 2003, at which time the remainder of the note will be
automatically converted to shares of the Company's common stock. The note
is convertible at the option of the holder at any time at the lesser of
$9.76 per share or the average of the 7 lowest volume weighted average
sales prices of the common stock during the past 50 trading days
immediately preceding the notice of conversion. Included in accrued
expenses is approximately $36,000 of accrued interest related to this note
payable. The fair value of the associated warrant was determined based on
the Black-Scholes pricing method at the date of grant. The value of the
warrants totaled $1,576,309 and is included in paid-in capital at December
31, 2001. The discount is being amortized to interest expense over the life
of the note using the interest rate method (effective interest of 76%).
Amortization of the debt discount included in interest expense approximated
$463,000 and $64,000 for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.
Additional notes may be issued in increments of $2,000,000 provided that,
among other items, the per share market value of the Company's common stock
is not less than $10.00 per share.
In 2001, $1,450,000 of the original note balance and accrued interest
($575,087 or $0.18 per share, net of unamortized debt discount) was
converted to 3,220,765 shares of the Company's common stock at an average
conversion rate of $0.45 per share.
During January 2002, the remaining balance of $550,000 was converted into
approximately 2,468,000 common shares.

The warrants have an exercise price of:
c) $0.82; or
d) 120% of the three lowest closing price of the common stock for
the ten trading days prior to the exercise of the warrant.
Using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model, the fair value of the warrant
amounted to $0.58 per share or total consideration of $57,800. This amount
was recorded as a discount against the face value of the note payable. In
addition, since this debt is convertible into equity at the option of the
note holder at conversion rates mentioned above, a beneficial conversion
feature of $207,800 has been recorded as a debt discount and is being
amortized using the effective interest rate (100%) over the life of the
debt in accordance with EITF 00-27. Unamortized debt discount and
beneficial conversion was recognized as interest expense upon conversion.
In 2001, $598,802 of the original note and related accrued interest was
converted to 3,402,600 shares of the Company's common stock at an average
conversion rate of $0.18 per share.

virtue of Section 4(2) of the Act, as transactions by an issuer not
involving any public offering. The securities issued pursuant to the
Private Placement were restricted securities as defined in Rule 144. The

(11) Incentive and Nonqualified Stock Option Plan, Continued:
Two types of options may be granted under the Plan: (1) Incentive Stock
Options (also know as Qualified Stock Options) which may only be issued to
employees of the Company and whereby the exercise price of the option is
not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date it was
reserved for issuance under the Plan; and (2) Nonstatutory Stock Options
which may be issued to either employees or consultants of the Company and
whereby the exercise price of the option is greater than 85% of the fair
market value of the common stock on the date it was reserved for issuance
under the plan. Grants of options may be made to employees and consultants
without regard to any performance measures. All options issued pursuant to
the Plan vest at a rate of at least 20% per year over a 5-year period from
the date of the grant or sooner if approved by the Board of Directors. All
options issued pursuant to the Plan are nontransferable and subject to
forfeiture.
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related
interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because the
alternative fair value accounting provided for under SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," requires use of option valuation
models. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's employee
stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date
of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. The Company follows SFAS
No. 123 for stock options granted to non-employees and records a consulting
expense equal to the fair value of the options at the date of grant.
During 2000, the Company granted 53,725 stock options exercisable at an
average exercise price of $10.22 to consultants for professional services
provided to the Company. The options expire at various times through 2003.
The options were valued using the Black-Scholes method at the date of
grant.
During 2001, the Company granted 250,000 stock options exercisable at an
exercise price of $0.65 to a consultant for professional services provided
and to be provided to the Company. The options expire at various times

(11) Incentive and Nonqualified Stock Option Plan, Continued:
Pro forma information regarding the effect on operations is required by
SFAS 123, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its
employee stock options under the fair value method of that statement. Pro
forma information using the Black-Scholes method at the date of grant based
on the following assumptions:
Expected life 3 Years
Risk-free interest rate 5.0%
Dividend yield -
Volatility 155%
This option valuation model requires input of highly subjective
assumptions. Because the Company's employee stock options have
characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and
because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect
the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing model does
not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of fair value of its
employee stock options.
For purposes of SFAS 123 pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of
the options is amortized to expense over the option's vesting period. The
Company's proforma information is as follows:
December 31, 2001
-----------------
Net loss, as reported $ (8,778,279)
Pro forma net loss $ (9,840,642)
Basic and diluted historical loss per share $ (0.59)
Pro forma basic and diluted loss per share $ (0.66)
(12) Warrants:
At December 31, 2001, the Company had warrants outstanding that allow the
holders to purchase up to 1,457,567 shares of common stock, of which,
231,884 warrants had an exercise price of $9.76 expiring through October
2005 and 1,225,683 warrants had an exercise price ranging from $0.40 to
$2.00 per share, expiring through September 2006.

(13) Subsequent Events:
During January 2002, the Company entered into a new convertible debt
financing agreement with Stonestreet Limited Partnership and Laurus Master
Fund, Ltd. for an aggregate of $1.45 million. The stated interest rate is
4% per annum and the unpaid principal and interest balance is due in full
by January 7, 2004. Net proceeds to the Company amounted to approximately
$1.32 million, which is net of debt issue costs. The Company issued 500,000
warrants to acquire 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an
exercise price of $0.96. In addition, since this debt is convertible into
equity at the option of the note holder at beneficial conversion rates, an
embedded beneficial conversion feature will be recorded as a debt discount
and amortized using the effective interest rate over the life of the debt
in accordance with EITF 00-27. Total cost of beneficial conversion feature,
debt discount and cost of warrants issued exceed the face value of the
notes payable, therefore, only $1.45 million, the face amount of the note,
is recognizable as debt discount, and will be amortized over the life of
the notes payable. Any unamortized debt discount and beneficial conversion
feature will be charged to expense upon conversion, as interest expense.
During January 2002, the remaining balance of $550,000 related to the 5%
Note Payable was converted into approximately 2,468,000 common shares.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED:
REVENUE RECOGNITION:
The Company recognizes revenues when earned in the period in
which the service is provided. The Company's revenue
recognition policies are in compliance with all applicable
accounting regulations, including American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") Statement of Position
("SOP") 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by SOP
98-4 and SOP 98-9. Any revenues from software arrangements
with multiple elements are allocated to each element of the

objective evidence exists, revenues from the arrangements are
not recognized until the entire arrangement is completed and
accepted by the customer. Once the amount of the revenue for
each element is determined, the Company recognizes revenues as
each element is completed and accepted by the customer. For
arrangements that require significant production, modification
or customization of software, the entire arrangement is
accounted for by the percentage of completion method, in
conformity with Accounting Research Bulletin ("ARB") No. 45
and SOP 81-1.

the Company for approximately $800,000 in exchange for
2,666,667 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of
$0.30 per share. Subsequently, on August 8, 2002, $500,000 of
the $800,000 investment was repriced and 833,334 shares of
common stock was issued to the investors so that the average

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
ITEM 24. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Under the Nevada General Corporation Law and our Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, and our Bylaws, our directors will have no personal
liability to us or our stockholders for monetary damages incurred as the result
of the breach or alleged breach by a director of his "duty of care." This
provision does not apply to the directors' (i) acts or omissions that involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, (ii) acts or
omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the
corporation or its stockholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the
part of the director, (iii) approval of any transaction from which a director
derives an improper personal benefit, (iv) acts or omissions that show a
reckless disregard for the director's duty to the corporation or its
stockholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have
been aware, in the ordinary course of performing a director's duties, of a risk
of serious injury to the corporation or its stockholders, (v) acts or omissions
that constituted an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an
abdication of the director's duty to the corporation or its stockholders, or
(vi) approval of an unlawful dividend, distribution, stock repurchase or
redemption. This provision would generally absolve directors of personal
liability for negligence in the performance of duties, including gross
negligence.
The effect of this provision in our Articles of Incorporation and
Bylaws is to eliminate the rights of our Company and our stockholders (through
stockholder's derivative suits on behalf of our Company) to recover monetary
damages against a director for breach of his fiduciary duty of care as a
director (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent
behavior) except in the situations described in clauses (i) through (vi) above.
This provision does not limit nor eliminate the rights of our Company or any
stockholder to seek non-monetary relief such as an injunction or rescission in
the event of a breach of a director's duty of care. In addition, our Bylaws
provide that if the Nevada General Corporation Law is amended to authorize the
future elimination or limitation of the liability of a director, then the
liability of the directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent
permitted by the law, as amended. The Nevada General Corporation Law grants
corporations the right to indemnify their directors, officers, employees and
agents in accordance with applicable law.

ITEM 26. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
In September 1998, we offered and sold 220,000 shares of common stock
at $.25 per share to a non-affiliated investor for net proceeds of $55,000. he
Company relied on an exemption from registration pursuant to Regulation S as the
basis of exemption from registration. Regulation S was available to this
investor as the sale was made outside of the United States to an investor who
was not a U.S. resident, citizen or corporation, nor were any officers or
directors of the investing corporation U.S. residents or citizens.
From the period of approximately May 1, 1999 until July 14, 1999, we
offered and sold 1,500,000 shares of restricted stock at $2.00 per share to
thirty-two non-affiliated private investors. Each investor completed a
subscription confirmation letter and private placement subscription agreement
whereby the investors certified that they were purchasing the shares for their
own accounts and that the investors were accredited as defined. This offering
was not accompanied by general advertisement or general solicitation. The
Company relied on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1993, as amended (the
"Act") as the basis of exemption from registration. The offering generated
proceeds, net of offering costs, of approximately $2,846,000. An additional

accredited and sophisticated as defined. This offering was not accompanied by
general advertisement or general solicitation. We relied on Section 4(2) of the
Act as the basis of exemption from registration.

one share of our common stock and one-half common stock purchase warrant for
each unit purchased. We received net proceeds of $12,146,181 from the issuance

represented to us that they were accredited investors as defined in the Act and
that they were able to protect their own interests in connection with the
investment. The shares underlying this private placement are being registered in
this registration statement. The commission for the transaction was 10%
($200,000) and a common stock purchase warrant for 23,188 shares of our stock at

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to:
(1) File, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
(i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");
(ii) 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
(iii) Include any additional or changed material information
on the plan of distribution.
(2) 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.
(3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of
the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
(4) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h)
under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time
it was declared effective.
(5) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each
post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new
registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement,
and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial bona fide
offering of those securities.
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 Securities and Exchange Commission
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.
