THIS SUMMARY DOES NOT CONTAIN ALL OF THE INFORMATION YOU SHOULD CONSIDER BEFORE INVESTING IN OUR COMMON STOCK. YOU SHOULD READ THE ENTIRE PROSPECTUS CAREFULLY BEFORE DECIDING TO INVEST IN OUR COMMON STOCK. OUR BUSINESS We are a leading provider of secure private network connectivity and Internet solutions that connect credit unions to their business partners and members. Through CUINET-Registered Trademark- (Credit Union INTERACTIVE Network), our secure private communications network, individual credit unions can offer Internet banking products and e-commerce services to their members via the Internet and they can engage in business-to-business communications and e-commerce with other credit unions, credit union leagues, trade associations, corporate credit unions and third party vendors. We also offer secure Internet access for credit unions' personnel with multiple layers of security and dedicated connections designed to satisfy credit unions' need for confidential communications and secure transaction processing through one digital connection to our private network. As of March 31, 2000, we had contractual arrangements to connect 130 entities to CUINET-Registered Trademark-, 92 of which had been connected. Our Internet banking products provide a cost-effective, outsourced, secure and scalable solution that enables credit unions to offer their members a wide array of financial products and services over the Internet. Our product offering includes account management, funds transfer, bill payment, online loan application with access to third party approval products, and share draft imaging services over a secure Internet connection. These products and services are branded with the credit union's own name and logo and other distinctive branding characteristics. This branded solution enables credit unions to provide their members with the convenience of banking on the Internet without losing the personal relationship and service associated with the credit union. In addition, our Internet banking products make credit unions more accessible to their members without the expense of building additional facilities. Through our recently introduced e-commerce solution, Member Emporium-TM-, we identify, develop and implement e-commerce relationships with third party merchants and suppliers and, in turn, offer their products and services to credit union members. Member Emporium-TM- is designed to enable a credit union to provide its members with access to products and services such as mortgage lending, insurance, online stock trading, tax preparation, retail Internet access services and retail merchandise at a discount to regular retail or Internet-based prices. Member Emporium-TM- is co-branded with each individual credit union's own name and logo. We anticipate that creating such e-commerce opportunities for credit union members will increase lending opportunities for credit unions, generate significant transaction fees and commissions for us and increase member retention for the credit union. -3- We currently earn the majority of our revenue from recurring flat monthly fees for a connection to CUINET-Registered Trademark- and for our Internet banking products and ancillary services. We also generate monthly recurring revenue from third party vendors for providing them with a connection to CUINET-Registered Trademark- and additional fees based upon the number of credit unions to which such vendors provide services. We do not charge our credit union customers software licensing, implementation or per user fees. In the future, we expect to earn a substantial portion of our revenue from commissions and fees on transactions conducted over Member Emporium-TM-. HOW TO REACH US Our legal name is Cavion Technologies, Inc. and we conduct business under the registered trade name cavion.com.

SUMMARY FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION You should read the following summary financial and operating information in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes as well as those of LanXtra, Inc., our predecessor, and other financial information which appear in this prospectus. Our company was incorporated on August 18, 1998, to acquire the business of LanXtra. On February 1, 1999, we purchased the LanXtra business. Prior to our purchase of the LanXtra business, our operating results consisted entirely of administrative expenses with no revenue. The purchase method of accounting was used to record our purchase of the LanXtra business and the related assets acquired and liabilities assumed by us. This accounting method reflects the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their estimated fair market value, and resulted in the recording of intangible assets, including goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the net fair market value of tangible and other assets acquired. This goodwill will be amortized in future periods. The accompanying historical financial information of LanXtra on and before January 31, 1999, is not comparable in all material -4- respects with our financial information subsequent to February 1, 1999, since that financial information reports financial position and results of operations on a different basis of accounting. Historical earnings per share information for LanXtra has been omitted because it is not meaningful given the significant differences in our capital structure compared to LanXtra's capital structure. The business that we purchased from LanXtra was started by LanXtra during 1997. In December 1997, LanXtra sold all operations that were not related to the business later acquired by us, and the results of the operations that were sold have been reported as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the accompanying financial information of our predecessor for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996 do not include the results of operations of the LanXtra business that we acquired. The pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999 reflects the acquisition of LanXtra as if it had occurred on January 1, 1999. Pro forma basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated as if the purchase was completed on January 1, 1999, and the related 1,029,218 shares of common stock issued to acquire the LanXtra business were issued on that date. The pro forma financial information for the year ended December 31, 1999 does not represent what our results of operations would have been if the acquisition had actually occurred on January 1, 1999, nor is it indicative of our future results of operations.

- ----------- (1) Pro forma earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or pro forma EBITDA, represents the sum of net loss before income taxes plus net interest expense, depreciation and amortization. Pro forma EBITDA is presented here to provide additional information about our ability to meet our obligations. Pro forma EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered as an alternative either to net loss as an indicator of our operating performance, or to cash flow as a measure of our liquidity. (2) As adjusted to reflect: (i) our receipt of net proceeds of approximately $2.2 million from the sale of 205,000 shares of common stock in a February 2000 private placement; (ii) the recent conversion of all of the 28,648 issued and outstanding shares of Class B common stock into 28,648 shares of common stock; and (iii) the exercise of options to purchase 4,334 shares of common stock. RISK FACTORS INVESTING IN OUR COMMON STOCK INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS, AS WELL AS THE OTHER INFORMATION PRESENTED IN THIS PROSPECTUS, IN DECIDING WHETHER OR NOT TO INVEST IN OUR COMMON STOCK. EACH OF THESE FACTORS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK, OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND COULD RESULT IN A COMPLETE LOSS OF YOUR INVESTMENT. BECAUSE WE HAVE A SHORT OPERATING HISTORY, YOU WILL HAVE LIMITED HISTORICAL INFORMATION ABOUT US ON WHICH TO BASE YOUR INVESTMENT DECISION. Our business plan was developed in January 1998. Our short operating history makes it difficult to evaluate us and to predict our future financial results. An investor in our common stock must consider the risks we will face as an early stage company in the new and rapidly evolving Internet banking and e-commerce markets. These risks include our potential inability to: - attract credit unions to use CUINET-Registered Trademark-; -6- - gain acceptance of Member Emporium-TM- by credit unions and their members; - develop, test, market and sell new and enhanced products and services; - expand successfully our sales and marketing efforts; - maintain our current, and develop new, strategic partners; - promote acceptance of our Internet banking products and related services to credit unions and their members; - respond effectively to competitors providing alternative products to credit unions and their members; and - continue to develop and upgrade our technology. We may not succeed in achieving all or any of these goals and challenges, and current evaluations of us and our prospects may prove to be inaccurate. WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES AND CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT WE WILL BECOME PROFITABLE. Neither cavion.com nor its predecessor has ever earned a profit. As of December 31, 1999, our accumulated deficit was $4.9 million. We expect to lose money in fiscal 2000 and there can be no assurance that we will ever achieve profitable operations. Even if we do become profitable, we may not be able to continue to be profitable. Today, we receive the majority of our revenue from the sale of products and services to our credit union customers. We plan to increase our spending in sales and marketing, research and development, and administrative areas for the foreseeable future. If our revenue does not grow as rapidly as we anticipate or if we are unable to control our expenses, our operating performance would be adversely affected and we will be unable to achieve profitability. WE ARE CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING A PERIOD OF SIGNIFICANT GROWTH THAT MAY PLACE A STRAIN ON OUR RESOURCES. We are experiencing and expect to continue to experience significant growth in our operations. This expansion will place additional demands on our management, operational capacity and financial resources. Our management, sales, technical and accounting resources may not be adequate to support our recent expansion and anticipated future growth. In order to manage our expected growth, we will be required to hire additional personnel and devote significant resources to improving or replacing existing operational, accounting and informational systems, procedures and controls. Our future operating results will substantially -7- depend on the ability of our management to manage our growth effectively by, among other things: - predicting accurately the growth in the demand for our Internet banking products and related services by our customers; - attracting, training, motivating, managing and retaining key employees; - expanding and improving our operating and financial systems, procedures and controls; - acquiring and installing new equipment and facilities; and - responding quickly and effectively to unanticipated changes in the industry. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, our business may be adversely affected. WE CURRENTLY RELY ON CONVERGENT COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. TO ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN THE CONNECTION BETWEEN OUR CUSTOMERS AND CUINET-Registered Trademark-. In order to provide our Internet-based products to our customers, we must purchase a large quantity of telecommunications services from providers of these services. We have entered into a non-exclusive agreement with Convergent Communications Services, Inc. to establish and maintain connectivity between our network and substantially all our customers. Our business depends upon the ability of Convergent, or some other telecommunications service provider, to establish and maintain connectivity with CUINET-Registered Trademark-. If Convergent is unable to provide connectivity in a timely manner to our new customers or experiences problems in delivering services to our existing customers, our business could be adversely affected. If we are unable to continue to obtain services from Convergent or some other provider on economically favorable terms, our business and financial performance may be adversely affected. OUR BUSINESS AND PROSPECTS WILL SUFFER IF CREDIT UNIONS AND THEIR MEMBERS DO NOT ACCEPT AND USE MEMBER EMPORIUM-TM-, OUR E-COMMERCE SOLUTION. We expect to derive a substantial portion of our revenue in the future from our e-commerce product, Member Emporium-TM-. This product is a network of portals which is designed to aggregate credit union members and offer them a variety of products and services from third party vendors, such as insurance policies, home mortgages, Internet access, online brokerage, and consumer merchandise, often at a discount to retail or Internet-based prices. The success of Member Emporium-TM- is dependent on, among other things, our ability to: -8- - convince credit unions to allow us to link their websites to the Member Emporium-TM- website and network of portals; - persuade businesses to advertise their products and services on the Member Emporium-TM- website and portal network, and to offer those products and services at a meaningful discount; - entice credit union members to visit the Member Emporium-TM- website and portal network, and purchase the products and services advertised; and - to earn commissions on these transactions. If Member Emporium-TM- is unable to produce the revenue we presently expect, there could be a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR ABILITY TO MARKET OUR PRODUCTS TO CREDIT UNIONS, WHICH HISTORICALLY HAVE BEEN SLOW TO ADOPT NEW TECHNOLOGIES. Our revenue depends upon information technology spending by credit unions. We cannot be sure that this type of spending will increase or even continue at today's levels. Credit unions tend to be cautious in making purchase decisions regarding new technologies for their financial applications. As a result, we must provide a significant level of education to prospective customers regarding the use and benefits of our products and services prior to their purchase. Furthermore, credit unions are frequently slow to approve capital expenditures, especially for new technologies that affect key operations. All of this could have the effect of significantly lengthening our sales cycle, thereby delaying revenue growth and adversely affecting operating results. OUR BUSINESS COULD SUFFER IF THE CREDIT UNION MEMBERSHIP ACCESS ACT OF 1998 IS REPEALED OR LIMITED IN ITS SCOPE BY REGULATIONS IMPOSED BY THE NATIONAL CREDIT UNION ADMINISTRATION. Our primary customers are credit unions which are regulated by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). In 1998, the U.S. Congress passed the Credit Union Membership Access Act of 1998 which allows federally chartered credit unions to solicit credit union members from more than one occupational group, as well as make certain business loans to their members. The Credit Union Membership Act has the potential to increase the activity of federal credit unions in the financial marketplace as it presents new opportunities for federal credit unions to expand their member base. A repeal of the Act would eliminate the new opportunities allowed by the Act. Title IV of the Act requires the U.S. Treasury Department to study the regulatory, tax and other differences between credit unions and other federally insured financial institutions, -9- including a review of the potential effect of applying federal tax laws to credit unions. The Treasury Department's study will consider whether the competitive advantage produced by credit unions' tax exemption may endanger the viability of smaller banks. The Treasury Department may ultimately recommend imposing taxation on credit unions or enacting legislative or administrative measures to cut taxes for smaller depository institutions which compete with credit unions. Any such new laws or regulations which subject credit unions to taxation or reduce the tax liability of competing financial institutions could adversely affect credit unions and the size of our potential market. Similarly, the adoption of amendments to the Act or the issuance of NCUA regulations under the Act which impair credit unions' ability to expand or serve their member base could hinder our growth and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. OUR BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF THERE IS A DECLINE IN DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES OR IN THE USE OF THE INTERNET. We expect to derive substantially all of our revenues from products and services provided to credit unions, their members and other participants in the financial services industry. Our future success depends significantly upon the willingness of credit unions to utilize our services and offer technological innovations such as Internet banking, bill payment and online shopping to their members, and upon their members' demand for and acceptance of these technological innovations. If credit unions and their members do not readily accept these technological innovations, the demand for our products and services will be materially and adversely affected. There can be no assurance that we will continue to be successful in marketing these products and services or other integrated products and services. In addition, changes in economic conditions and unforeseen events, including recession, inflation or other adverse occurrences, may result in a significant decline in the utilization of credit union services or demand for our products and services. Any event that results in decreased use of credit union services, or increased pressure on credit unions toward the in-house development of Internet banking systems, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Demand for our products and services by credit unions is driven by the demand for Internet-based products and services by credit union members. Our business would be adversely affected if Internet use does not continue to grow or grows more slowly than expected. Internet usage may be inhibited for a number of reasons, including inadequate network infrastructure, security concerns, inconsistent quality of service, and unavailability of cost effective, high-speed access to the Internet. If the market for Internet-based financial services fails to grow, grows more slowly than anticipated, or becomes saturated with competitors, it is likely that our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected. -10- WE CURRENTLY RELY ON A SINGLE DATA CENTER TO SUPPORT ALL OF OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. Essential components of our communications and network equipment are currently located at our corporate headquarters in Englewood, Colorado. A natural disaster, such as fire, earthquake or flood, at or affecting our facility could result in failures or interruptions in providing our network and Internet banking services to our customers. In the event of a failure or interruption in our systems, our reputation could be materially harmed and we could lose many of our current and potential customers. We do not currently have backup facilities for our network and Internet banking services. We are currently constructing two additional data centers which will provide the redundancy necessary to serve as backup facilities for our existing data center and for each other, but they are not scheduled to be fully operational until the third quarter of 2000. We also cannot be certain that these new data centers will become operational as scheduled or that, when operational, they will perform as expected. Even with the two new data centers, we could still experience a failure or interruption in our systems, which could lead to delays, loss of data or the inability to provide our services to our customers. TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES MAY RENDER OUR SOLUTIONS OBSOLETE. The electronic banking and financial services industry is characterized by rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards. In addition, we have several competitors who have been consistently introducing new products and services, some of which compete with our products and services. Our future success will depend on our ability to design, develop, sell and support new and integrated products and services that will keep pace with technological advances, industry standards and our competitors, as well as satisfy the evolving needs of credit unions and their members. Our inability to develop and introduce such products and services in a timely manner could limit the marketability of our products and services which would adversely affect our business. Furthermore, we cannot predict the time and costs involved in developing new and integrated products and services. Actual development costs could substantially exceed budgeted amounts and completion of such development could be later than presently scheduled. In either case, our operating results and business could be seriously harmed. COMPETITION FROM THIRD PARTIES COULD REDUCE OR ELIMINATE DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. The market for Internet banking services is highly competitive, and we expect that competition will intensify in the future. We may not be able to compete successfully against our current or future competitors and, accordingly, we cannot be certain that we will be able to expand the number of our customers, or retain our current customers or third-party service providers. A number of public and private companies compete with one or more of the individual products and services offered by cavion.com. Any of these companies, as well as other potential competitors, could in the future offer a combination of products and services to -11- credit unions similar to the combination we presently offer. Many of our current and potential competitors have longer operating histories and may be in a better position to produce and market their services due to their greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources, as well as their significantly greater name recognition and larger installed bases of customers. UNDETECTED DEFECTS MAY EXIST IN THE HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE THAT WE USE TO DELIVER OUR PRODUCTS. The hardware and software used by our systems in the delivery of our products and services currently or in the future may contain undetected errors, defects or bugs. Although we have not suffered significant harm from any errors or defects to date, we may discover significant errors or defects in the future that we may or may not be able to correct. Any such defects could result in a loss of sales and additional costs as well as damage to our reputation and our relationships with our customers. WE MAY EXPERIENCE CAPACITY CONSTRAINTS AS THE VOLUME OF TRAFFIC ON OUR SYSTEMS INCREASES. If the volume of traffic and transactions on our system increases substantially, we could periodically experience temporary capacity constraints, resulting in unanticipated system disruptions, slower response times and lower levels of customer service. We may be unable to project accurately the rate or timing of increases, if any, in the use of our services or to expand and upgrade our systems and infrastructure to accommodate these increases in a timely manner. Any inability to do so could harm our business. IMPLEMENTATION OF OUR SOLUTION BY OUR CREDIT UNION CUSTOMERS MAY TAKE LONGER THAN WE ANTICIPATE. During the course of an initial implementation of our products and services, we must integrate our Internet banking software with a credit union's core processing software. This involves the installation of an interface to permit communication between our products and services and the credit union's core processing software, which typically takes an average of 60 to 90 days from the date the credit union contracts with us. From time to time, we may experience delays in the integration process, particularly if we do not already have an established interface for a particular core processing software. We also rely on Convergent and the customer's telecommunications provider to establish connectivity between our systems and the customer. The process of connecting a customer to CUiNET-Registered Trademark- takes an average of 60 days from the date the credit union contracts with us to implement by Convergent. A longer implementation period for either the integration or connectivity process will increase our costs associated with the implementation and delay our recognition of revenues. Moreover, changes to the core software systems used by existing customers, or custom implementations for new customers, may cause integration delays. Significant delays of customer implementation, however caused, could materially and adversely affect our operating results for subsequent periods. -12- BECAUSE OF THE IMPORTANCE TO US OF DAVID SELINA'S EXPERIENCE AND RELATIONSHIPS IN THE CREDIT UNION INDUSTRY, AND JEFF MARSHALL'S TECHNICAL EXPERTISE, OUR SUCCESS MAY BE DEPENDENT ON OUR ABILITY TO RETAIN THESE INDIVIDUALS. We believe that the credit union and related management experience of David J. Selina, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, is important to our future success. We also believe that the software development ability of Jeff Marshall, Vice President of Software Development, is important to our future success. We have employment contracts with Messrs. Selina and Marshall, and we have purchased $1,000,000 of key man insurance on each of them. The loss of the services of Messrs. Selina or Marshall could have a significant adverse effect on our business. OUR FUTURE SUCCESS WILL BE DEPENDENT ON OUR ABILITY TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN QUALIFIED PERSONNEL. Our growth plan will require us to hire more people in sales, customer service, research and development and other areas during 2000 and the foreseeable future. Competition for qualified people in the Internet services and software industry, particularly in the network services field, is intense. We compete with bigger and better financed software and Internet services companies for these employees. Our future success depends on our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel. Our ability to expand our business will depend significantly on our ability to expand our sales and marketing forces and our strategic partnerships. To continue our growth we must cross-market products and services to existing customers and enter into agreements with new customers. This requires us to locate and hire experienced sales and marketing personnel and to establish and maintain key marketing relationships. SECURITY BREACHES COULD DAMAGE OUR REPUTATION AND BUSINESS. Our networks may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer viruses and other disruptive problems. We transmit confidential information in providing our services. Users of Internet banking and other e-commerce services are concerned about the security of transmissions over public networks. Therefore, it is critical that our facilities and infrastructure remain secure and are perceived by the marketplace to be secure. A material security breach affecting us could damage our reputation, deter credit unions from purchasing our products, deter their members from using our products, or result in liability to us. Further, any material security breach affecting our competitors could affect the marketplace's perception of Internet banking in general and have the same effects. Concerns about security and privacy may inhibit the growth of the Internet and other online services generally, especially as a means of conducting commercial transactions. Any well-publicized compromise of security could deter people from using the Internet or using it -13- to conduct transactions that involve the transmission of confidential information. We may need to expend significant capital or other resources to protect against the threat of security breaches or alleviate problems caused by breaches. Although we intend to continue to implement state of the art security measures, it may nevertheless be possible to circumvent any such measures. In addition, the process of eliminating computer viruses and alleviating other security problems may result in interruptions, delays or cessation of service to users accessing websites that deliver our services, any of which could harm our business. OUR GROWTH MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY GOVERNMENT REGULATION AND LEGAL UNCERTAINTIES THAT COULD ADD ADDITIONAL COSTS TO DOING BUSINESS ON THE INTERNET. There are currently few laws or regulations that specifically regulate communications or commerce on the Internet. However, laws and regulations may be adopted in the future that address such issues, including user privacy, pricing, and the characteristics and quality of products and services offered. For example, several telecommunications companies have petitioned the Federal Communications Commission to regulate Internet service providers and online service providers in a manner similar to long distance telephone carriers and to impose access fees on those companies. Any such regulation could increase the cost of transmitting data over the Internet. Federal or state authorities may adopt regulations addressing the electronic operations of financial institutions that could require us to modify our current or future products and services. For example, the U.S. Congress is currently considering financial services reform legislation that may include limitations on the ability of financial institutions to disclose nonpublic consumer financial information. The adoption of laws or regulations affecting our customers' businesses could reduce our growth rate or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. See "Business-Government Regulation." TAXATION OF OUR INTERNET PRODUCTS AND SERVICES COULD AFFECT OUR PRICING POLICIES AND REDUCE DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. Any legislation that substantially impairs the growth of e-commerce could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. The tax treatment of the Internet and e-commerce is currently unsettled. A number of proposals at the federal, state and local levels in the United States would, if enacted, impose taxes on the sale of goods and services over the Internet. In October 1998, the U.S. Congress passed the Internet Tax Freedom Act, which generally imposes a three year moratorium on new federal, state and local taxation of online services. Taxation of Internet commerce could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and operations. -14- THE UNPREDICTABILITY OF FUTURE FINANCIAL RESULTS AND EVENTS BEYOND OUR CONTROL MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK. Our financial results and the price of our common stock may fluctuate substantially in the future. These fluctuations may be caused by several factors, including the price we are able to charge for our services, competition, new product offerings from our competition and changes in technology. Other factors which may cause your investment in our common stock to be adversely affected or which may cause significant fluctuations in our stock price include: - our actual or anticipated operating results; - changes in our actual or anticipated growth rates; - changes in analysts' estimates; - competitors' announcements; - regulatory actions; - industry conditions; - general economic conditions; and - a variety of other factors that we have discussed elsewhere in "Risk Factors." Furthermore, the market for Internet and technology companies has experienced extreme price and volume volatility that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. These broad market and industry factors may materially and adversely affect our stock price. The trading prices of the stocks of many Internet and technology companies are at or near new historical highs and reflect relative valuation levels substantially above historical levels. These trading prices and relative valuation levels may not be sustained or may not prove to be applicable to our common stock.

If holders of the 30,000 warrants exercise their warrants at $6.50 per share, of which there can be no assurance, we would receive $195,000 from those exercises. DIVIDEND POLICY We have never declared or paid any dividends on our common stock. We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock. We plan to retain our future earnings, if any, to finance our operations and for expansion of our business. The decision whether to pay cash dividends on our common stock will be made by our board of directors, in their discretion, and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements and other factors that the board of directors considers significant.

-17- SELECTED FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION The following table sets forth selected historical and pro forma financial and operating information for cavion.com. The selected historical financial information presents our predecessor from 1995 through January 31, 1999, cavion.com from inception (August 18, 1998) through December 31, 1999, and pro forma results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999. We acquired LanXtra on February 1, 1999; however, the pro forma financial information is presented as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 1999. The purchase method of accounting was used to record our purchase of the LanXtra business and the related assets acquired and liabilities assumed by us. This accounting method reflects the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their estimated fair market value, and resulted in the recording of intangible assets, including goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the net fair market value of tangible and other assets acquired. This goodwill will be amortized in future periods. The accompanying historical financial information of LanXtra on and before January 31, 1999, is not comparable in all material respects with our financial information subsequent to February 1, 1999, since that financial information reports financial position and results of operations on a different basis of accounting. Historical earnings per share information for LanXtra has been omitted because it is not meaningful given the significant differences in our capital structure compared to LanXtra's capital structure. The business that we purchased from LanXtra was started by LanXtra during 1997. In December 1997, LanXtra sold all operations that were not related to the business later acquired by us, and the results of the operations that were sold have been reported as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the accompanying financial information of our predecessor for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996 do not include the results of operations of the LanXtra business that we acquired. The selected historical financial information as of December 31, 1997, 1998, and 1999, for the years then ended and for the one-month period ended January 31, 1999 have been derived from the financial statements of cavion.com and LanXtra included in this prospectus, which have been audited by Arthur Andersen LLP, independent public accountants. The selected historical financial information as of and for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996 have been derived from LanXtra's unaudited financial statements that are not included in this prospectus. The selected historical and pro forma financial information is qualified by reference to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and the notes to the financial statements, as well as "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." The pro forma statement of operations for 1999 reflects the acquisition of LanXtra as if it had occurred on January 1, 1999. Pro forma earnings per share are calculated as if the purchase was completed on January 1, 1999 and the related 1,029,218 shares of common stock issued to acquire the LanXtra business were issued on that date. The pro forma financial information for 1999 does not represent what our results of operations would have been if the acquisition had actually occurred on January 1, 1999, nor is it indicative of our future results of operations. -18-

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION OF OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SHOULD BE READ TOGETHER WITH THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND RELATED NOTES INCLUDED IN ANOTHER PART OF THIS PROSPECTUS. THOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TO BE INCORPORATED INTO THIS SECTION. THIS DISCUSSION CONTAINS FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS RELATED TO SUCH MATTERS AS OUR FUTURE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE, BUSINESS STRATEGY AND FINANCING PLANS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. OUR ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED IN THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF FACTORS THAT INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE DETAILED IN "RISK FACTORS" AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS. OVERVIEW cavion.com offers a secure private network and Internet banking products and services to credit unions that connect them to other credit unions, their business partners and members. cavion.com builds and maintains a suite of network products and services for the credit union industry that currently includes: -20- - a secure private network, CUINET-Registered Trademark-, that connects credit unions with their business partners, enabling business-to-business movement of data and e-commerce; - secure Internet banking products, bill payment and secure automated loan application software with access to third party decision products; - secure Internet access services for credit unions; and - e-commerce services for credit union members. The following discussion of our results of operations includes the results of our predecessor, LanXtra, Inc., for periods prior to February 1, 1999. LanXtra was incorporated in June 1992 and was originally engaged in the business of integrating computer networks and communications technologies for large business and government clients. In 1997, LanXtra created a software development division to develop network-based financial services software for credit unions. In December 1997, LanXtra sold all of its assets except its credit union financial services business, which we acquired in February 1999. We were originally incorporated under the name Network Acquisitions, Inc. in August 1998 for the purpose of acquiring the assets and business operations of LanXtra. This acquisition was completed on February 1, 1999. At that time, we changed our name to Cavion Technologies, Inc. and began to conduct some of our business under the trade name cavion.com. Prior to our acquisition of LanXtra, we did not conduct any business operations except preparation for the acquisition, including providing bridge funding to LanXtra with funds raised through a private placement of promissory notes and related warrants. The following discussion relates to LanXtra's historical results of operations since January 1, 1998, the date on which LanXtra began to focus solely on the business later acquired by us. In the following discussion, "we" refers both to the business we purchased from LanXtra on February 1, 1999, and to cavion.com since its inception (referred to below as the combined results). We have not included a comparison of 1998 operations to those conducted in 1997 since our current business was begun in January 1998 and therefore any such comparison would not be meaningful. Our revenues have been historically derived from recurring monthly connectivity fees, installation services and software licensing fees associated with our secure Internet access services and secure Internet financial products. Beginning in January 2000, we changed our pricing policy and eliminated implementation fees for access to CUINET-Registered Trademark- and our Internet banking products. Currently, credit unions pay us a flat monthly fee based on bandwidth requirements and the mix of products and services we provide to them. In addition, we charge vendors connected to CUINET-Registered Trademark- a flat monthly fee to be connected to CUINET-Registered Trademark- in addition to charges based upon the number of credit unions to which such vendors provide services. We -21- market a connection to CUINET-Registered Trademark- and our Internet banking products as a packaged solution to credit unions. In addition, we offer bill payment services, secure forms servers, secure Internet access and an online loan application, CUILOAN-TM-, with access to third party approval products. Included in the monthly fee is the cost of hardware, software installation, set up, maintenance, technical assistance for our services, and any hardware or software upgrades. We do not charge end user transaction fees or per user fees. Customers pay for a full year of services in advance when they initially connect with us and on each anniversary date thereafter. This payment is reflected on the balance sheet as an increase in deferred revenue offset by an increase in cash. As revenues are deemed earned, deferred revenues are amortized into revenue. We have recently developed and are beginning to market our e-commerce product, Member Emporium-TM-, which will allow credit unions to offer their members products and services at discounted prices. In the future, we expect to earn a substantial portion of our revenue from commissions and fees for transactions conducted over Member Emporium-TM-. As of March 31, 2000, we had 130 customers under contract to connect to CUINET-Registered Trademark-, which included 119 credit unions and 11 business critical vendors. Of the 119 credit unions that contracted to connect to CUINET-Registered Trademark-, 57 had also subscribed to our Internet banking products. We believe that our new pricing policy, combined with our new strategy of marketing a CUINET-Registered Trademark- connection and Internet banking products as a packaged solution will increase the percentage of our credit union customers who also subscribe for Internet banking products. In the first quarter of 2000, 66% of credit unions that contracted to connect to CUINET-Registered Trademark- also subscribed to our Internet banking products, as compared to 42% through December 31, 1999. Our cost of revenue consists of network access and connectivity expenses and installation services. Network access and connectivity expenses include our monthly connection costs paid to Convergent and other telecommunications providers, hardware costs, as well as the ongoing personnel and system maintenance costs associated with our data center. Our installation services expenses consist of the initial equipment and personnel costs required to implement our secure private network and Internet banking products. Our operating expenses consist of selling, general and administrative expenses, research and development expenses, and amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets. Selling, general and administrative expenses include marketing expenses, sales commissions, employee compensation and benefits, and occupancy and general office expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business. Research and development expenses consist of programmers and engineers allocated salaries applicable to the amount of time they devoted to development activities. Amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets is related to the purchase of LanXtra. -22- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR CAVION.COM AND THE PREDECESSOR The following table sets forth the results of operations of our predecessor for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998 and for the one month ended January 31, 1999, our results of operations for the period from inception (August 18, 1998) to December 31, 1998 and for the year ended December 31, 1999. Combined operating information for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999 has been presented to facilitate comparison between these periods.

-23- YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 (COMBINED CAVION.COM AND LANXTRA) REVENUE Total revenue increased approximately $441,000 or 205% from approximately $215,000 for 1998 to approximately $656,000 for 1999. This increase consisted of an increase of approximately $324,000 in network access and connectivity revenue and an increase of approximately $117,000 for installation services and software licensing revenue. NETWORK ACCESS AND CONNECTIVITY. Network access and connectivity revenue increased approximately $324,000 or 219% from approximately $148,000 for 1998 to approximately $472,000 for 1999. This increase was due to the increase in the number of customers connected to CUINET-Registered Trademark- from 16 as of December 31, 1998 to 56 as of December 31, 1999. INSTALLATION SERVICES AND SOFTWARE LICENSING. Installation services and software licensing revenue increased approximately $117,000 or 175% from approximately $67,000 for 1998 to approximately $184,000 for 1999. This increase was due to the increase in the number of customers connected to CUINET-Registered Trademark- from 16 as of December 31, 1998 to 56 as of December 31, 1999. As a result of the change in the way we sell our products, we expect this category of revenue to decrease significantly as a percentage of total revenue. COST OF REVENUE Total costs of revenue increased approximately $303,000 or 136% from approximately $222,000 for 1998 to approximately $525,000 for 1999. This increase consisted of an increase of approximately $208,000 in costs related to network access and connectivity revenue and an increase of approximately $95,000 for costs related to installation services and software licensing. Total cost of revenue as a percentage of total revenue decreased from 103% in 1998 to 80% in 1999. COST OF NETWORK ACCESS AND CONNECTIVITY. Costs related to network access and connectivity revenue increased approximately $208,000 or 152% from approximately $137,000 for 1998 to approximately $345,000 for 1999. This increase was due to an increase in the number of customers connected to CUINET-Registered Trademark-, and related increased telecommunications charges, personnel and network maintenance and data center expenses. This increase was somewhat offset by the reduction in prices we were charged for installation services by telecommunications providers. Cost of network access and connectivity as a percentage of related revenue decreased from 93% in 1998 to 73% in 1999. COST OF INSTALLATION SERVICES AND SOFTWARE LICENSING. Costs related to installation services revenue increased approximately $95,000 or 112% from approximately $85,000 for 1998 to approximately $180,000 for 1999. This increase was due to an increase in the number of -24- customers connected to CUINET-Registered Trademark-, and related increases in personnel and equipment costs. Cost of installation services and software licensing as a percentage of related revenue decreased from 127% in 1998 to 98% in 1999. OPERATING EXPENSES Total operating expenses increased approximately $3.5 million or 309% from approximately $1.1 million for 1998 to approximately $4.6 million for 1999. This increase consisted of an increase of approximately $2.2 million in selling, general and administrative expenses, $368,000 in research and development expenses, and $874,000 of amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets. Total operating expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased from 523% in 1998 to 702% in 1999. This increase was primarily due to the amortization of goodwill from the LanXtra acquisition, increased personnel and occupancy costs to support our recent growth and increased commissions paid to sales personnel. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately $2.2 million or 256% from $876,000 for 1998 to $3.1 million for 1999. This increase was primarily due to increased personnel, increased occupancy costs for additional sales offices, and increased commissions paid to sales personnel. We anticipate that our salaries and commissions will increase as we hire additional personnel to handle the expected growth of our business. We also expect increased occupancy expenses and corporate infrastructure costs as we grow. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of total revenue from 407% in 1998 to 475% in 1999. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses increased approximately $368,000 or 148% from $249,000 for 1998 to $617,000 for 1999. This increase was primarily due to increased personnel devoted to development activities. We anticipate that our salaries and commissions will increase as we hire additional personnel to handle the expected growth of our business. Research and development expenses decreased as a percentage of total revenue from 116% in 1998 to 94% in 1999. AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS. Amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets increased approximately $874,000 from $0 in 1998 due to the February 1, 1999 acquisition of LanXtra, and the related goodwill and other intangible assets. INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE cavion.com's interest expense totaled approximately $462,000 for 1999, compared to approximately $29,000 for 1998. The increase is due to additional borrowings during 1999 prior to our initial public offering and obligations assumed from LanXtra, as well as to the recording of a full year of interest on borrowings in 1998. We expect that interest expense related to borrowings will decrease in 2000, as we have repaid substantial portions of our debt, -25- however interest expense related to capital leases will increase as we expand our network infrastructure and customer base. cavion.com's interest income was approximately $30,000 in 1999 and was derived from interest earned on short-term cash investments. DIVIDENDS ON PREFERRED STOCK cavion.com's dividends on preferred stock totaled approximately $64,000 for 1999, reflecting dividends payable on cavion.com's Series A preferred stock, which was converted to common stock on November 3, 1999. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES We have funded our operations primarily through cash flow from operations, net proceeds from the public and private sale of equity and debt securities, and through debt which has subsequently been repaid. On December 31, 1999, we had approximately $4.3 million in cash and cash equivalents. cavion.com's operating activities used cash of approximately $13,000 in 1998 and approximately $3.3 million in 1999. Cash used by operating activities in each of these periods primarily resulted from our net losses, which were partially offset by depreciation and amortization, accretion of debt discount and putable stock, loss on disposal of assets, and by increases in accrued liabilities and deferred revenue. cavion.com's investing activities used cash of approximately $335,000 in 1998, and generated approximately $79,000 in 1999, which was the net effect of approximately $207,000 for the purchase of new equipment and receiving approximately $286,000 from the sale of network equipment to Convergent Communications Services, Inc. cavion.com's financing activities generated cash of approximately $368,000 and $7.6 million in 1998 and 1999, respectively. The cash generated by financing activities during 1998 and 1999 resulted primarily from debt financing and the sale of equity, which was offset somewhat in 1999 by the repayment of debt. We received net proceeds of $470,000 from the private placement of 15% secured notes that began in October 1998 and ended in February 1999. The notes are due in October 2000 and are secured by substantially all of our assets. The funds were used to provide bridge funding to LanXtra in anticipation of our acquisition of LanXtra's assets, which occurred in February 1999. -26- In March and April 1999, we received net proceeds of approximately $1.8 million from the private placement of 700,000 shares of our preferred stock. These shares were converted into 700,000 shares of common stock on November 3, 1999. On August 31, 1999, we received net proceeds of $273,000 from the private placement of 14% notes, which included warrants to purchase 30,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $6.50 per share. The notes were repaid on November 5, 1999. In November 1999, we received net proceeds of approximately $6.7 million in our initial public offering of 1,290,500 shares of our common stock. The net proceeds were used primarily to pay off debt, purchase equipment, for working capital and to continue the expansion of our secure private network. On February 17, 2000, we received net proceeds of $2.2 million through a private placement to two investors of 205,000 shares of our common stock. We currently lease all of the equipment in our data center. We have a lease line from Data Sales Company which enable us to lease up to $500,000 of computer hardware. Interest on the outstanding balance accrues at the rate of 10% annually. As of March 31, 2000 a total of $164,283 was outstanding on this line. In the future, we expect to incur substantial costs in connection with expanding our telecommunications infrastructure, establishing a sales presence in key strategic markets, and developing new products. We also expect to incur increased marketing costs and general and administrative expenses in connection with the growth of our secure network for the credit union industry. Management expects that we will continue to operate at a loss as we expand our network of credit union clients. These expansion efforts are likely to cause us to incur significant increases in expenses, both in absolute terms and as a percentage of revenue, as we prepare for the anticipated future growth in our credit union customer base. Expenses will increase because of the need to increase staffing in all categories, acquire additional equipment, and provide for additional telephone connections. We believe our operating results may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, some of which are outside of our control. Because of that, we cannot assure you that we will achieve profitable operations even with a significant increase in our credit union customer base. Management believes that we have sufficient capital to fund our operations through the end of the year 2000. -27- INFLATION Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on the results of our operations during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, nor do we expect that inflation will have a material effect on the results of our future operations. RECENT ACCOUNTING GUIDELINES During December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission released Staff Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition" ("SAB 101"), to establish guidelines for revenue recognition and enhance revenue recognition disclosure requirements. SAB 101 clarifies basic criteria for when revenues are taken into account for purposes of a company's financial statements. SAB 101 is effective for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. We are currently assessing the implications of adopting SAB 101. In the period of adoption, the cumulative impact will be reported as a change in accounting principle as dictated by SAB 101. BUSINESS OVERVIEW We are a leading provider of secure private network connectivity and Internet solutions that connect credit unions to their business partners and members. Through CUINET-Registered Trademark- (Credit Union INTERACTIVE Network), our secure private communications network, individual credit unions can offer Internet banking products and e-commerce services to their members via the Internet and they can engage in business-to-business communications and e-commerce with other credit unions, credit union leagues, trade associations, corporate credit unions and third party vendors. We also offer secure Internet access for credit unions' personnel with multiple layers of security and dedicated connections designed to satisfy credit unions' need for confidential communications and secure transaction processing through one digital connection to our private network. As of March 31, 2000, we had contractual arrangements to connect 130 entities to CUINET-Registered Trademark-, 92 of which had been connected. Our Internet banking products provide a cost-effective, outsourced, secure and scalable solution that enables credit unions to offer their members a wide array of financial products and services over the Internet. Our product offering includes account management, funds transfer, bill payment, online loan application with access to third party approval products, and share draft imaging services over a secure Internet connection. These products and services are branded with the credit union's own name and logo and other distinctive branding characteristics. This branded solution enables credit unions to provide their members with the convenience of banking on the Internet without losing the personal relationship and service associated with the credit union. In addition, our Internet banking products make credit unions more accessible to their members without the expense of building additional facilities. -28- Through our recently introduced e-commerce solution, Member Emporium-TM-, we identify, develop and implement e-commerce relationships with third party merchants and suppliers and, in turn, offer their products and services to credit union members. Member Emporium-TM- is designed to enable a credit union to provide its members with access to products and services such as mortgage lending, insurance, online stock trading, tax preparation, retail Internet access services and retail merchandise at a discount to regular retail or Internet-based prices. Member Emporium-TM- is co-branded with each individual credit union's own name and logo. We anticipate that creating such e-commerce opportunities for credit union members will increase lending opportunities for credit unions, generate significant transaction fees and commissions for us and increase member retention for the credit union. We currently earn the majority of our revenue from recurring flat monthly fees for a connection to CUiNET-Registered Trademark- and for our Internet banking products and ancillary services. We also generate monthly recurring revenue from third party vendors for providing them with a connection to CUINET-Registered Trademark- and additional fees based upon the number of credit unions to which such vendors provide services. We do not charge our credit union customers software licensing, implementation or per user fees. In the future, we expect to earn a substantial portion of our revenue from commissions and fees on transactions conducted over Member Emporium-TM-. Our system is supported by our data center, which provides a secure hosting environment for our Internet products and deploys them to customers connected to our secure network. We expect to open two additional data centers in the third quarter of 2000 to provide redundancy and additional capacity. Through our network design and our relationship with data processing vendors, we are able to interface our products and services with a credit union's existing core transaction and data processing systems. To date, we have successfully interfaced our products and services with eight different core processing systems and two bill payment systems. Additionally, we have the capability of building additional interfaces as necessary. INDUSTRY OVERVIEW THE INTERNET AND E-COMMERCE The widespread adoption in recent years of public and private electronic communications networks, including the Internet, intranets and extranets, has impacted the manner in which organizations communicate and conduct business. These advanced networks provide an attractive medium for communications and commerce because of their widespread reach, accessibility, use of open standards and ability to permit interactions on a real-time basis. At the same time, they offer businesses a user-friendly, low-cost way to conduct a wide variety of commercial functions electronically. For example, financial institutions are rapidly -29- adopting network communications to conduct electronic banking and provide customers with access to their account information. Due to these benefits, the Internet has emerged as the fastest growing global communications and transactional medium in history. International Data Corporation (IDC), a leading provider of research for the information technology industry, estimates that the number of Internet users worldwide will increase from approximately 230 million in 1999 to 602 million by 2003, a compound annual growth rate of approximately 27%. In addition, Nielsen//Net Ratings estimates that the number of people who had Internet access from home in the United States in 1999 was 119 million, or approximately 50% of the U.S. population. Both businesses and consumers are looking to the Internet to conduct e-commerce. As a result, many companies have developed and are increasingly developing websites that are interactive and transaction-enabled, allowing them to provide a wide range of e-commerce capabilities. IDC estimates that revenue from business-to-consumer e-commerce will increase from approximately $40 billion in 1999 to more than $210 billion in 2003, a compound annual growth rate of approximately 52%. IDC estimates that revenue from business-to-business e-commerce will increase from approximately $97 billion in 1999 to more than $1.4 trillion in 2003, a compound annual growth rate of approximately 96%. THE CREDIT UNION INDUSTRY A credit union is a non-profit, cooperative financial institution, owned and controlled by its members, or customers, who use its services. Historically, credit unions have been limited to serving specific populations. As such, credit unions traditionally have not competed with each other but coexisted in a cooperative spirit. For example, credit unions may engage in shared branching whereby members of one credit union can conduct their business using another credit union's facility. Beginning in 1998, changes in applicable law resulting from the adoption of the Credit Union Membership Access Act of 1998 have permitted federally chartered credit unions to greatly expand the range of persons they can serve. These changes also expanded the types of services federal credit unions can provide to their members so that they are now generally the same as the retail services offered by banks and savings and loans. As a result, credit unions can now compete more effectively with banks and savings and loans. According to information released by Callahan and Associates, a credit union consulting firm, in December 1999, in the United States: (i) there are approximately 10,800 credit unions with combined assets of over $418 billion; and (ii) these 10,800 credit unions service approximately 77 million members. Callahan's most recent database, released in December 1999, reports that approximately 6,200 of these credit unions have assets of over $5 million. These larger credit unions service approximately 73 million members and have combined assets of approximately $409 billion. -30- According to the Credit Union National Association's 1998 National Member Survey, a typical credit union member is 45 years old and has an average annual household income of approximately $50,000. Approximately 72% of credit union members are homeowners. The credit union industry includes credit union leagues, trade associations and corporate credit unions. Credit union leagues and trade associations are non-profit organizations made up of credit unions and are supported through the payment of their members' dues. Credit union leagues and trade associations act as a common voice for their members in legislative and other matters, and may also provide services to credit unions, such as processing of share drafts (checks drawn on credit union accounts). A corporate credit union, which is essentially a credit union for credit unions, is a non-profit organization that provides liquidity services, loans, deposit accounts and investment services to credit unions. Corporate credit unions can also provide other services, including share draft processing services and bill pay settlement services for online bill payment products. THE INTERNET, PRIVATE NETWORKS AND CREDIT UNIONS We believe financial institutions' customers are increasingly demanding Internet banking, bill payment and online loan application services. IDC estimates that approximately 8.1 million people were banking over the Internet at the end of 1998 and projects that number will increase to approximately 39.8 million by 2003. The number of financial institutions offering Internet banking is expected to increase from 1,150 in 1998 to 15,845 by 2003, according to IDC. These competitive pressures are driving credit unions to offer Internet banking products and services to their members. The emergence of the Internet has provided credit unions with a new platform to offer their traditional services to their members and the flexibility to market non-traditional products and services, such as brokerage services, insurance policies and retail Internet access, to those members. While the Internet has developed into a medium that facilitates credit unions' ability to communicate with and offer services to their members, the Internet lacks the network security that is desired by credit unions to transfer their members' financial data. Private networks provide a secure communications medium that is faster and more efficient than the public Internet. We believe credit unions will increasingly demand a high speed, secure private network for transferring funds, clearing share drafts, transferring data, accessing vendors and trade associations, and transferring members' financial information. Communications of this nature require a secure private network that does not have the risks associated with transferring members' data over the public Internet. Due to their traditionally smaller size and nonprofit status, most credit unions do not have the technological infrastructure and in-house support staff to develop and maintain a secure private network and an Internet banking solution. We believe credit unions need a cost-effective, integrated and outsourced solution that offers access to a secure private network -31- and Internet banking products and services. We also believe that many credit unions demand a single source provider of connectivity and Internet banking services that is fast, secure and scalable. In addition, the solution must provide the flexibility to allow for new products and services. OUR SOLUTION We provide secure private network connectivity and Internet banking products and services and solutions to credit unions. Through CUiNET-Registered Trademark-, we connect individual credit unions to their business partners and members and enable them to engage in business-to-business communications and e-commerce. Our cost-effective, secure and scalable solution enables credit unions to offer their members a wide array of financial products and services over the Internet. Through our Member Emporium-TM- product, we also will enable credit union members to access products and services at significant discounts from regular retail or Internet-based prices. Our solution provides our customers and their members with the following advantages: - AFFORDABLE PRICING MODEL. We charge a flat monthly fee to connect a credit union to our secure private network and for the use of our Internet banking products and services. The amount of this monthly fee is based on the credit union's transmission capacity, or bandwidth, requirement and the mix of services provided. We do not charge our credit union customers any implementation, transaction or end user fees. - PRIVATE CONNECTIVITY NETWORK. CUiNET-Registered Trademark- is a secure, private network that enables business critical data transfers and communication between credit unions, credit union leagues, trade associations, corporate credit unions and vendors. - INTERNET BANKING SERVICES. We provide credit unions with a robust and secure Internet banking product that enables their members to access account and loan information, transfer funds between accounts, make loan payments, view share draft images and download information into personal money management software programs, such as Microsoft Money-Registered Trademark- and Quicken-Registered Trademark-. We also offer online bill payment and a loan application and approval product through CUILOAN-TM-. - BUSINESS-TO-BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS THROUGH CUINET-Registered Trademark-. Through CUiNET-Registered Trademark-, we provide credit unions with a digital connection to each other, to their business partners and to vendors. These vendors provide credit unions with business critical services such as credit bureau reports and loan approval, data archiving and share draft clearing. -32- - MEMBER EMPORIUM-TM-. We have recently introduced Member Emporium-TM-, a network of e-commerce portals for credit union members. This product aggregates credit union members into a demographically attractive audience to which merchants can offer products and services such as home mortgages, online brokerage services, retail Internet access, insurance, online brokerage services and consumer goods at a discount to regular retail or Internet-based prices. - SECURE INTERNET ACCESS FOR CREDIT UNIONS. Through CUINET-Registered Trademark- we are able to provide credit union personnel with secure Internet access. Our ISP service provides multiple layers of security to ensure that credit unions have confidential communications and secure transactional processing with one connection. In addition, our ISP service provides credit unions with e-mail and website hosting. - SINGLE TURNKEY CONNECTIVITY SOLUTIONS. We provide all of the proprietary software and the hardware necessary to operate our Internet banking system and to connect to CUiNET-Registered Trademark-. Credit unions that use our solution do not need to develop in-house software, purchase or maintain expensive equipment, contact or deal with telecommunication companies, or hire a technical staff. In addition, we provide all software upgrades internally at our data center. - COMPATIBILITY WITH EXISTING CORE PROCESSING SYSTEMS. Both our Internet banking system and CUiNET-Registered Trademark- are designed to interface with multiple core processing providers and data processing services. At present, we have successfully installed Internet banking products and services that interface with eight different core processing software and data processing systems. Furthermore, we believe that we have the ability to interface with additional core processing systems. OUR STRATEGY We believe that by combining our secure private network with our Internet banking products, ancillary services and Member Emporium-TM-, we can become the leading single source provider of connectivity and e-commerce solutions for the credit union industry. Credit unions can utilize our system to create relationships with new members, to enhance relationships with their existing members, to connect with business partners and to conduct business critical operations. To accomplish these goals, we intend to: - LEVERAGE OUR EXISTING NETWORK. We intend to leverage our current position as a leading provider of network connectivity services to credit unions to connect additional credit unions to CUiNET-Registered Trademark-. CUiNET-Registered Trademark-'s integrated network allows credit unions to benefit from the connection to additional credit unions and -33- business critical partners, such as credit union leagues, trade associations, corporate credit unions and vendors. We plan to increase the number of credit unions connected to CUiNET-Registered Trademark- by increasing our direct sales force and developing strategic relationships with third party vendors to market our connectivity solution. - CROSS SELL ADDITIONAL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES THROUGH CUINET-Registered Trademark-. We intend to market our Internet banking products, secure Internet access services, secure forms server, CUiLOAN-TM-, and Member Emporium-TM- applications to our existing CUiNET-Registered Trademark- credit union customer base. In addition, we have recently begun to market our Internet banking product as a blended solution with a connection to our CUiNET-Registered Trademark- network. - INCREASE BUSINESS-TO-BUSINESS E-COMMERCE ON CUiNET-Registered Trademark-. We intend to expand CUiNET-Registered Trademark- by increasing the number of vendors and other business partners connected to CUiNET-Registered Trademark-. As of March 31, 2000, we had 11 such entities under contract to connect to CUiNET-Registered Trademark-. With the addition of providers of business critical services to credit unions on CUiNET-Registered Trademark-, we increase the service available to our credit union customers. Through this expansion, we can increase the number of connections to, and business-to-business transactions conducted on, our network. - PROMOTE MEMBER EMPORIUM-TM-. Through CUiNET-Registered Trademark-, we have access to 119 credit unions with approximately 2.5 million members. We intend to encourage credit union members to visit the Member Emporium-TM- website through advertising on credit union websites, and through e-mail, statement inserts, direct mail and in-branch advertising. We intend to attract additional merchants to advertise and sell their products by offering them direct access to this aggregated potential customer base. - DEVELOP NEW SERVICE OFFERINGS. We have a research and development staff that is focused on expanding and enhancing our current products and services. We plan to offer new and improved services to attract new credit unions to CUiNET-Registered Trademark- as well as provide credit unions with additional products and services to offer their members. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES We offer credit unions, their business partners and members a variety of products and services, including secure network connectivity, Internet banking products, business-to-business communication, secure Internet access and our e-commerce solution, Member Emporium-TM-. Our products and services consist of the following: -34- - Our secure private network, CUiNET-Registered Trademark-, connects credit unions, credit union leagues, trade associations, corporate credit unions and vendors. CUiNET-Registered Trademark- facilitates business-to-business communications and e-commerce, and enables credit unions to offer products and services to their members over the Internet. For example, we recently entered into an agreement with Mission Critical Recovery, Inc. to offer secure electronic storage of critical data files and data disaster recovery services to credit unions. Data is transferred to Mission Critical Recovery from credit unions on CUiNET-Registered Trademark-. - Our secure Internet banking products enable credit union members to view their account and loan balances, obtain information on particular share drafts, transfer funds between accounts, pay bills online and apply for and obtain approval of loans over the Internet. - Our recently introduced e-commerce product, Member Emporium-TM-, will enable credit unions to offer products and services to their members, such as mortgage loan services, insurance policies, retail Internet access, co-branded portals, personal start pages, online shopping and on-line brokerage services. Member Emporium-TM- also provides credit unions and vendors with website promotion and traffic control tools, such as ad serving, search engine placement, e-mail and visitor analysis. CUiNET-Registered Trademark- CUiNET-Registered Trademark- is a fully-managed, private, frame relay communications network that connects credit unions with other credit unions, credit union leagues, trade associations, corporate credit unions and third party vendors. These entities can use CUiNET-Registered Trademark- to transfer business critical data without the risks associated with transferring data over the public Internet. Through CUiNET-Registered Trademark-, we provide secure ISP services to credit union personnel. Our secure ISP access provides credit unions with multiple layers of security features and dedicated connections to ensure confidential communications and secure transactional processing with one connection. We also provide web hosting and e-mail functionality for credit union customers utilizing our secure ISP services. Vendors use CUiNET-Registered Trademark- to communicate and transact business with credit unions. Among the services that are currently provided by vendors on CUiNET-Registered Trademark- are: - SHARE DRAFT CLEARING SERVICES. Credit unions settle their share drafts through corporate credit unions and credit union leagues. -35- - SHARED BRANCHING. Shared branching networks are groups of credit unions that have agreed to allow their members to do business at each other's locations and at shared locations. - DATA ARCHIVING. Through Mission Critical Recovery, credit unions can obtain secure electronic storage of critical data files and data disaster recovery services. - CREDIT BUREAU SERVICES. Through Factual Data Corporation, a vendor of credit bureau reports, credit unions can obtain a credit bureau report on a prospective borrower from any of the three major credit bureaus. - WEBSITE DESIGN. Through CyberBranch Corporation, a credit union website design firm, credit unions can outsource the development and deployment of their websites. In addition to the products we currently offer, we are targeting numerous vendors, including statement processing and printing companies to connect to CUiNET-Registered Trademark-. CUiNET-Registered Trademark- uses frame relay phone lines to each credit union and vendor connected to the network, limiting access to the network and maintaining constant control of the information being transmitted. When a credit union customer provides its members with Internet access to their personal account information and financial services, the concern with security becomes more acute. Accordingly, the Internet side of our network uses multiple security safeguards-firewalls, data encryption, digital certificates and the JAVA-Registered Trademark- programming language. Firewalls act as the gatekeeper between the Internet and the private network. They are designed to allow external access to networks only from authorized sources, and can also block data packets from specified addresses from entering or exiting the network. Our network uses industry standard firewall products. Our network also uses data encryption whenever data is exchanged with the Internet for Internet banking and bill payment services or for our share draft repository system. Encryption is the process of coding data so that only specified users can access the information. In this way, personal information can be sent across public networks without compromising its confidentiality. Digital certificates verify the identity of the web server being used and that the owner of that server is authorized to allow encryption. We use digital certificates provided by an independent certificate authority on all of our secure web servers. As an added layer of security for the user, we use the JAVA-Registered Trademark- programming language to control Internet banking and bill pay sessions. The JAVA-Registered Trademark- "applets" used in these sessions run only within the user's Internet browser, and are not allowed to access the user's hard drive without specific authorization. Because the programmer of the applet cannot read or write to -36- memory locations in the user's computer, this technology minimizes the opportunity to introduce destructive coding, such as a virus, to the user's computer. INTERNET BANKING PRODUCTS AND SERVICES Our Internet banking products enable credit union members to access the following services: - ACCOUNT INFORMATION. Credit union members can view current account and loan information as well as historical information. - FUNDS TRANSFER. Credit union members can transfer funds among accounts and make electronic loan payments. - SHARE DRAFT SERVICES. Credit union members can obtain information about the status of a particular share draft, view images of their share drafts, request stop payment of a share draft and reorder share drafts online. - COMPATIBILITY WITH PERSONAL MONEY MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS. Credit union members can download account information for use with their personal money management programs, such as Microsoft Money-Registered Trademark- and Quicken-Registered Trademark-. - BILL PAYMENT. Credit union members can pay their bills electronically 24 hours a day, seven days a week, can customize their payee list, make recurring and non-recurring payments, obtain payment status and history and provide for payments to be made in the future. - LOAN APPLICATION AND APPROVAL DECISIONS. Through our proprietary software CUiLOAN-TM-, credit union members can apply for loans and obtain approval decisions online through our third party vendor, Experian Credit Bureau. - ACCESS VIA WEB-ENABLED CELLULAR DEVICES. Our Internet banking products and services are accessible through the use of web-enabled cellular devices, such as cell phones and personal digital assistants. MEMBER EMPORIUM-TM- We have developed and are beginning to offer our integrated network of e-commerce portals called Member Emporium-TM-. Member Emporium-TM- is designed to enable a credit union to provide its members with access to a variety of products and services, typically at a discount from regular retail or Internet-based prices. Through Member Emporium-TM-, demand from credit unions' members can be aggregated to achieve higher discounts or rebates than individual credit unions could achieve on their own. Through preferred merchants, Member -37- Emporium-TM- will offer financial and other services that are complementary to those provided by credit unions, such as mortgage lending, insurance, online brokerage and retail Internet access services. Member Emporium-TM- will also offer consumer merchandise through shopping portals connected to over 130 merchants and vendors. Each credit union selects the merchants and portals that link to or appear on the credit unions' website, Internet banking website and co-branded personal start page portal. In addition, all lending opportunities generated from the purchase of products and services are referred back to the sponsoring credit union. All portals are co-branded by the sponsoring credit union and Member Emporium-TM- and contain no advertisements featuring products and services that are competitive with those offered by credit unions. We anticipate that Member Emporium-TM- will increase a credit union's presence on the Internet by attracting its members to the products and services advertised on the credit union's website using ad banners, e-mail, and search engine placements. Credit union members can access Member Emporium-TM- through their credit union's website, through their credit union co-branded personal start page, through the Member Emporium-TM- preferred merchant websites, and through Member Emporium-TM- vendor portals. Our Member Emporium-TM- solution includes the following features: - PREFERRED MERCHANTS. Preferred merchants are vendors of Internet and financial services that complement those offered by credit unions, such as mortgage lending, insurance, online stock trading, online tax preparation and retail Internet access. Preferred merchants' products and services receive greater exposure through advertising on credit union websites and on the co-branded personal start page portal of credit union members. We receive advertising revenue as well as commissions and fees from these merchants when their products and services are purchased by credit union members. All advertising on the preferred merchant sites is controlled by Member Emporium-TM-. - SHOPPING PORTALS. Shopping portals will provide credit union members with access to non-financial products and services offered by over 130 merchants. Through Member Emporium-TM-, demand from credit unions' members can be aggregated to achieve higher discounts or rebates than individual credit unions could achieve on their own. In addition, these shopping portals will offer integrated ad serving and search engine capabilities that will provide credit unions with increased advertising and promotional opportunities. We will receive advertising revenue as well as commissions and fees when credit union members purchase products and services through the shopping portals. - MEMBER EMPORIUM-TM- WEB TOOLS. Member Emporium-TM- provides tools designed to provide credit unions and merchants with the ability to manage advertising, e-mail, marketing and web promotions, and traffic on their websites. We receive fees for providing these services. These capabilities are available for use -38- on the credit union's website and Internet banking programs as well as on the Member Emporium-TM- portals. SYSTEMS ARCHITECTURE CUiNET-Registered Trademark- CUiNET-Registered Trademark- is our secure private frame relay network used to connect credit unions to each other and to their business partners. It is not a virtual private network (VPN) transmitted over the Internet but a truly private network which ensures reliable and high speed connectivity and enhanced security for our customers' communications and data transmission. Credit unions can use our private network to process shared branch activity, move share draft information, interact with corporate credit unions, communicate with credit bureaus, and engage in other business-to-business activity. Our existing data center houses firewalls, web servers, Internet banking servers, domain name servers, database servers, gateway servers, routers and a variety of other interrelated telecommunications equipment to serve our private network. We also co-locate servers for credit unions or credit union vendors in our existing data center and will do the same in the two new data centers planned to open in the third quarter of 2000. Once they are operational, these two new data centers will house similar equipment which will load balance network traffic and provide disaster recovery by virtue of their redundant connections to both the Internet and CUiNET-Registered Trademark-. Excess bandwidth will be available to each data center to enable it to carry the additional traffic when needed. Each credit union has its own dedicated server or servers in our data center based on processing demand. This arrangement allows a high degree of control over the performance of an individual credit union's connection. One credit union's processing demand is independent of all other credit unions and hardware overloads or failures only impact the credit union being served. Another advantage to having discrete hardware dedicated to individual credit unions is that upgrades are done at the credit union level, and we do not have to upgrade large and expensive computer systems to accommodate the growth of a few credit unions. INTERNET BANKING For our Internet banking products, which connect our credit union customers with their members through an Internet connection, our computer systems utilize a "thin client" architecture. Thin client architecture is a system in which applications reside in an off-site server rather than in the user's computer. The most significant advantage of thin client architecture is the added security provided by isolating the sensitive data network from computer viruses and other potential disruptions or intrusions. In a thin client environment, the security on the host server governs and limits the thin client's access. After the online connection is terminated, the applications are erased from the user's computer memory. -39- Thin client architecture also reduces the risk of system interruptions and other maintenance problems because there is less ability for thin client users to affect system settings which are critical to the business or workflow operation. Thin client architecture also enables us to maintain control over our proprietary software since we do not provide permanent copies to our users, and therefore can make upgrades of our software immediately and efficiently without having to distribute individual copies. Thin client architecture also minimizes our credit union customers' need to upgrade their hardware constantly in order to keep up with the technology required to store and maintain our application software. This results in cost savings to our credit unions and minimizes the burdens associated with administering hardware and software upgrades. Because our systems use the JAVA-Registered Trademark- programming language, which is platform independent, it allows many kinds of systems to communicate with each other and share applications. Our transactional banking products also provide scalability, distributive and centralized implementation, and permit access using Web-enabled cellular devices. In our case, the credit union or credit union member logs onto our server, and can then access and run the applications remotely to process data. Through JAVA-Registered Trademark- applets, we enable the user's computer to remove processing load from our server with regard to formatting numbers and graphical presentation. Unlike conventional servers, which are burdened by numerous processing cycles needed to format data, a distributed environment frees our server to handle more requests. STRATEGIC ALLIANCES On October 22, 1999, we entered into a five-year, nonexclusive agreement with Convergent Communications Services, Inc. (Nasdaq: CONV), to establish and maintain connectivity between our network and our customers. When we sign a contract with a new institution, Convergent establishes the circuit and implements the institution's connectivity to CUiNET-Registered Trademark-. As noted above, our architecture is designed for load balancing, redundancy and disaster recovery, allowing us, with Convergent's assistance and the cooperation of the telecommunications provider, to pick up traffic temporarily from a nonfunctional data center. In connection with our business-to-business services, we entered into a contract with CyberBranch Corporation, a credit union-owned content and design firm and loan decision engine, under which CyberBranch will purchase and license for resale our Internet banking products, bill payment, and kiosk enabling software at a discount, which they will then offer to their credit union customers. We refer our credit union clients and prospects to CyberBranch for website design. CyberBranch will refer its credit union clients and future prospects to us for connectivity and secure Internet products and services. -40- We recently entered into a non-exclusive five-year agreement with Mission Critical Recovery, Inc. under which Mission Critical will use CUINET-Registered Trademark to offer secure electronic storage of critical data files, called electronic vaulting, and data disaster recovery services. In addition to paying us for connection to CUINET-Registered Trademark-, Mission Critical agreed to provide us with electronic vaulting services. For credit unions located outside Florida that want to connect to Mission Critical, Mission Critical refers these credit unions to CUINET-Registered Trademark- for a cost effective network connection. DATA CENTERS We maintain a data center in Englewood, Colorado that became fully operational in January 2000. The data center presently consists of a server farm comprised of one Sun Microsystems Ultra 5 server for each Internet banking customer and other servers as needed for our other business needs. We utilize Cisco Systems equipment for all network routing. We have our own backup power supply for 15 hours of continuous operation in the event of a power outage. We have two separate HVAC units for the data center to maintain constant temperatures irrespective of outside conditions. We have a wireless, microwave backup link that enables us to maintain connectivity in the event that cable at our data center is mistakenly cut or otherwise interrupted. We plan to add a power generator to our Denver facility during the third quarter of 2000. Our data centers in Livonia, Michigan and Memphis, Tennessee, are currently under construction. These data centers will utilize substantially identical equipment and will have the same capabilities as our existing center in Colorado. The most important feature of the two new centers, however, will be the establishment of redundancy for our overall network. This redundancy will enable us to utilize each of the centers as backup systems for the others in the event of a natural disaster or other unforeseen data center outage. Our redundant connectivity will be provided by Sprint Corp., Global Crossing Ltd. and Level 3 Communications. These communication companies are known as Tier 1 Internet Service Providers because of their national presence, redundant infrastructure and connections to major Network Access Points. We expect both of our new data centers to be fully operational by the third quarter of this year. CUSTOMERS Our target market consists of credit unions with assets greater than $5 million, credit union leagues and trade associations, corporate credit unions and vendors that provide products and services to credit unions and their members. According to Callahan and Associates, as of December 30, 1999, there were approximately 6,200 credit unions with assets in excess of $5 million in the United States. There are 50 credit union leagues and trade associations in the United States, approximately one in each state, and most credit unions belong to the organization in their -41- state. As of March 31, 2000, we had four credit union leagues and trade associations connected to CUINET-Registered Trademark-. CUINET-Registered Trademark- enables credit union leagues and trade associations to transfer financial data to and from their credit union members. Examples of our relationships with credit union leagues include the Colorado Credit Union League, with whom we have established an informal marketing/endorsement arrangement, and the Missouri Credit Union System, which uses CUINET-Registered Trademark- to transport its share draft clearing data using our share draft software. We plan to feature these relationships in our sales efforts with credit unions. There are 38 corporate credit unions in the United States, two of which have signed contracts with us. While membership is not mandatory, most credit unions choose to be a member of a corporate credit union and may do business with more than one. Our corporate credit union customers can use CUINET-Registered Trademark- to transfer financial data to and from their members. An example of our relationship with corporate credit unions is the Volunteer Corporate Credit Union, located in Tennessee, that joined us for the business-to-business opportunities available through CUINET-Registered Trademark-. As of March 31, 2000, our network included 119 credit unions and 11 credit union leagues, trade associations, corporate credit unions, vendors and other entities. The number of members of our credit union customers aggregates approximately 2.5 million. None of these individual customers accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. SALES AND MARKETING We intend to place a direct sales force in each of our 18 planned sales territories. As of March 31, 2000, we had opened a sales office in 14 of these territories. We intend to place sales professionals in the four remaining sales territories over the next 12 months. Our sales team currently consists of 11 sales professionals, as well as Eastern and Western Regional Sales Managers and our Vice President of Sales and Marketing. We target to hire sales people with experience and established contacts in the credit union industry. We use a face-to-face sales strategy in which our sales people initially assess a prospective customer's web strategy over the telephone, then visit the credit union in person. Our primary customer contact for sales to credit unions is generally the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer or the chief operating officer. A typical sales presentation first focuses on our Internet banking and online bill pay products. We then feature the benefits of our CUINET-Registered Trademark- network, such as its secure nature, Internet access, and the ability of the credit union to reduce personnel and administrative costs. Our sales people sell the connection to CUINET-Registered Trademark- and Internet banking as a bundled product. Our products and services are advertised in credit union statement stuffers circulated to members, in credit union lobby displays and in credit union newsletters. We frequently advertise in two weekly trade publications: THE CREDIT UNION JOURNAL and THE CREDIT UNION -42- TIMES. Furthermore, we attend regional and national conventions and trade shows, and we currently plan to attend a minimum of 34 of these events during 2000. We charge the credit unions connected to our network a fixed monthly rate based on the amount of bandwidth they anticipate using. A credit union must increase its bandwidth as the number of transactions conducted through its website exceeds certain levels. Our customers pay more for each incremental increase in bandwidth. We have implemented an automated system to measure each credit union's usage of the network. By monitoring each credit union's connect usage, our sales people can advise customers of their need to increase bandwidth. Our sales strategy to increase business-to-business commerce over CUINET-Registered Trademark- includes initiatives to connect additional credit union leagues, trade associations, corporate credit unions and vendors. We have sales personnel focused on selling directly to these entities. We believe this strategy is effective since many of the credit union leagues and corporate credit unions serve a single state or region. Our Vice President of Sales and Marketing manages these state and regional sales and also takes the lead in sales to national credit union organizations and vendors that serve credit unions on a national basis. We plan to increase our sales efforts in the business-to-business area. In addition to connecting with CUINET-Registered Trademark-, some of our non-credit union customers participate with us in marketing and sales referral agreements. We believe these marketing efforts supplement our direct sales activities. Our sales force markets Member Emporium-TM- products and services to credit unions in their assigned sales territories. Marketing materials specifically presenting Member Emporium-TM- features and benefits have been developed and include a direct mail advertising campaign, full-page advertisements in the two primary credit union trade publications, and special websites for product and service demonstrations. We have developed an outbound call center to contact credit unions and promote Member Emporium-TM-. Sales efforts in the field are backed by specialist account executives based at our offices in Englewood, Colorado, who schedule and coordinate marketing programs for our credit union customers' members. In the near future, we plan to have program managers available to assist the sales force to effectively communicate the unique functionality of Member Emporium-TM- services, as well as to provide customer support. We believe that once we establish our initial relationship with our customers, our sales force will have the opportunity to cross sell Member Emporium-TM-. COMPETITION We operate in a highly competitive environment against a number of network application developers and providers of online banking services. Additionally, there is continuous market pressure among market participants to offer new and innovative products -43- and services. Moreover, in this field, technological and new product development progresses rapidly and market share can be gained or lost in very short time periods. A number of public and private companies compete with one or more of our Internet banking products. These competitors include Concentrex, Inc., Corillian Corporation, Database Management Services, Digital Insight Corporation, Fiserv Correspondent Services, Inc., FundsXpress, Inc., Home Account Network, Inc., Marshall & Isely Corporation, Online Resources and Communications Corporation, Phoenix International, S1 Corporation, Sanchez Computer Associates, Inc., Source One Software, Inc., Symitar Systems, Inc., and Virtual Financial Services, Inc. Member Emporium-TM- competes with a variety of websites that offer consumer products and services over the Internet. These sites include CUShopper.com, CU-Village.com, Good2CU.com and uMember.com. Although we are not aware of any direct competitors that provide a secure private network to credit unions, such competitors may emerge in the future. Any of these companies, as well as other potential competitors, could in the future offer a combination of products and services to credit unions similar to the combination we presently offer. Many of these companies have greater financial, personnel and operational resources than we have. We think that, as the Internet transaction and network services we sell are purchased by more of our customers, other competitors will enter the market to compete aggressively with us, including some larger, established companies. Competition may also increase if there is a consolidation in the software and networking industries, particularly if one or more of our competitors is acquired by a larger provider of products and services to the banking industry as a means for the larger company to penetrate the credit union market. GOVERNMENT REGULATION Credit unions are cooperative, non-profit financial institutions, owned and controlled by the credit union members who use their services. Credit unions may be state or federally chartered and are regulated and, in most cases, federally insured by the National Credit Union Administration. A small number of credit unions are insured by state-authorized deposit insurance organizations. While it is the responsibility of our customers to ensure that their use and marketing of our products and services to their customers is permitted by the NCUA's regulatory requirements, we do not believe that any of our current products or services are restricted by such requirements. Nevertheless, we do not make representations to customers regarding applicable regulatory requirements but leave it to them to determine whether their use of our system and the design of their website conform to applicable legal requirements. It is not possible to predict the impact that any of these evolving regulatory requirements could have on our business in the future. We are not subject to the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933, the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, the Competitive Equality Banking Act of 1987, the Federal Credit Union Act of 1934, nor are we regulated by the NCUA or the Federal Reserve Board. Naturally, however, we are -44- vitally concerned with laws and regulations governing financial institutions, especially credit unions, and how any changes to those laws and regulations affect the market for financial services and, in turn, our ability to provide products and services to our credit union customers. On August 7, 1998, the Credit Union Membership Access Act of 1998 was signed into law. Title I of the Act permits federally chartered credit unions to solicit credit union members from more than one occupational group so long as each group has fewer than 3,000 members. The Act also allows credit unions to make business loans to its members as long as the total of such loans does not exceed 1.75 times the credit union's actual net worth. This limitation does not apply to credit unions chartered primarily to make business loans, to serve low-income members, or as community development financial institutions. Full implementation of the Act requires issuance of regulations by the NCUA, which the NCUA expects to be complete by August 2000. In light of these new opportunities to expand their customer base, the Act has the potential to increase the activity of federal credit unions in the financial marketplace. Title IV of the Act requires the U.S. Treasury Department to study the regulatory, tax and other differences between credit unions and other federally insured financial institutions, including a review of the potential effect of applying federal tax laws to credit unions. The study will consider whether the competitive advantage produced by credit unions' tax exemption may endanger the viability of smaller banks. The Treasury Department may ultimately recommend imposing taxation on credit unions or enacting legislative or administrative measures to cut taxes for smaller depository institutions which compete with credit unions. Any such new laws or regulations which subject credit unions to taxation or reduce the tax liability of competing financial institutions could adversely affect credit unions and the size of our potential market. We also cannot be certain that federal or state governmental authorities will not adopt new laws or regulations constricting the credit union industry addressing electronic financial services or operations generally that could require us to modify our current or future products and services. The adoption of laws or regulations affecting our business or our credit union customers' business could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. A number of proposals at the federal, state and local level would, if enacted, expand the scope of regulation of Internet-based financial services and could impose taxes on the sale of goods and services made over the Internet and certain other Internet activities. Any development that substantially impairs the growth of the Internet or its acceptance as a medium for commerce or transaction processing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. -45- INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY Although we believe that our success depends more upon our technical expertise than our proprietary rights, our future success and ability to compete may still depend in part on our own proprietary technology and on the proprietary technology we may license from others. None of our technology is currently patented. Instead, we rely on a combination of contractual rights and copyright, trademark and trade secret laws to establish and protect our proprietary technology. We generally enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants, strategic partners, customers and potential customers. We also limit access to and distribution of our source code, and further limit the disclosure and use of other proprietary information. We cannot be certain that the steps taken by us in this regard will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our technology or technology we license from others or that our competitors will not independently develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our technology. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain or use our products or technology or that which we license from others. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. PROPERTIES We currently lease the following properties:

We are in the process of identifying additional facilities to accommodate our growth. We believe we will be able to identify additional space for sales and technical support offices in the future on commercially reasonable terms as needed. -46- EMPLOYEES As of March 31, 2000, we had a total of 58 full-time employees, including eight in development, 22 in engineering, 20 in sales, and eight in general and administrative, five of whom are in accounting. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or a collective bargaining agreement. We have not experienced any work stoppages and consider our relationships with our employees to be good. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS A LanXtra shareholder holding 50,000 shares of LanXtra stock exercised his right to dissent from the sale of LanXtra's assets to us and demanded payment of the "fair value" of his shares. Fair value means the value immediately before the corporate action to which the dissenter objects. We have assumed the liability, if any, of LanXtra to the dissenting shareholder which he asserted to be $250,000. The question of his "fair value" is now in litigation. LANXTRA, INC. V. KIRK W. DENNIS, Case No. 99 CV 3583 in the District Court, City and County of Denver, Colorado. We believe the value which would have been received by the dissenting shareholder on account of his shares under the asset purchase agreement, however, is greater than the maximum amount which he can now recover under Colorado law. Therefore, we have not reserved any funds to cover payment of the liability because management views the possibility of such payment as remote.

Severance pay is equal to twelve months of base salary as in effect at the time of termination, except for Mr. Aster, whose severance pay is equal to six months of base salary, increasing to twelve months at the earlier of: the first anniversary of his employment if cavion.com is profitable on an after-tax basis at that time or, if not profitable at the first anniversary, on the second anniversary of employment, or a change of control. Craig E. Lassen agreed to serve as our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer under an employment agreement dated February 1, 1999. Under the agreement, Mr. Lassen was to receive a base salary of $125,000, participation in the bonus pool described above, and other employee benefits. Mr. Lassen resigned as Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and a director effective March 18, 1999. His resignation as an employee was effective April 16, 1999. In June 1999, we entered into an agreement with Mr. Lassen under which we will pay Mr. Lassen an aggregate of $75,000 for consulting services. In addition, each of Messrs. Selina, Aster, Marshall and Lassen agreed under his respective employment contract to protect our confidential information, to refrain from soliciting our customers or employees for a competing business, and to assign to us all rights in intellectual property developed during the term of employment that relates to our business. -53- These obligations generally survive termination of employment for periods of one to three years. EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN Our Board of Directors adopted the Equity Incentive Plan as of March 19, 1999 and it was approved by our shareholders on March 8, 2000. Under this Plan, we may grant to our designated employees, officers, directors, advisors and independent contractors incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. By encouraging stock ownership, we seek to motivate Plan participants by allowing them an opportunity to benefit from any increased value of our company which their effort, initiative, and skill help produce. GENERAL. Up to 995,000 shares of common stock are authorized for issuance under the terms of the Plan. No more than 250,000 shares may be granted to any individual in any three year period. If options granted under the Plan expire or are terminated for any reason without being exercised, or shares of restricted stock are forfeited, the shares of common stock underlying such grant will again be available for purposes of the Plan. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN. The Compensation Committee determines which individuals will receive grants, the type, size and terms of the grants, the time when the grants are made and the duration of any applicable exercise or restriction period, including the criteria for vesting and the acceleration of vesting, and the total number of shares of common stock available for grants. ELIGIBILITY FOR PARTICIPATION. Grants may be made to employees, officers, directors, advisors and independent contractors of cavion.com and its subsidiaries, including any non-employee member of the board of directors. As of the date of this prospectus, options to purchase 837,500 shares of common stock were outstanding under the Plan. OPTIONS. Incentive stock options may be granted only to officers and directors who are employees. Nonqualified stock options may be granted to employees, officers, directors, advisors and independent contractors. The exercise price of an option will be determined by the Compensation Committee and may be equal to, greater than, or less than the fair market value but in no event less than 50% of the fair market value of a share of common stock at the time of grant; provided that: - the exercise price of an incentive stock option must be equal to or greater than the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant; and - the exercise price of an incentive stock option granted to an employee who owns more than 10% of the issued and outstanding common stock must not be less -54- than 110% of the fair market value of the underlying shares of common stock on the date of grant. The Compensation Committee determines the term of each option, which may not exceed ten years from the date of grant, except that the term of an incentive stock option granted to an employee who owns more than 10% of the common stock may not exceed five years from the date of grant. The Compensation Committee may accelerate the exercisability of any or all outstanding options at any time for any reason. RESTRICTED STOCK. The Compensation Committee determines the number of shares of restricted stock granted to a participant and may subject any grant to performance requirements, vesting provisions, transfer restrictions and other restrictions and conditions as the Compensation Committee may determine in its sole discretion. The restrictions shall remain in force during a restricted period set by the Compensation Committee. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. The Compensation Committee may grant a participant the right to receive, in cash or stock, the amount of any appreciation in the value of our common stock over the exercise price of the stock appreciation right, which is set by the committee at the time of grant. The Compensation Committee has the same discretion to determine the terms of stock appreciation rights, including exercise price and vesting schedule, that it has in the case of nonqualified stock options. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. If a participant leaves our employment, other than because of retirement, death or disability, the participant will forfeit any stock options or stock appreciation rights that are not yet vested, and any restricted stock for which the restrictions are still applicable, unless the participant remains as a non-employee director, advisor or independent contractor. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN. The Compensation Committee may amend or terminate the plan at any time, except that it may not make any amendment that requires shareholder approval as provided in Securities Exchange Act Rule 16b-3 or Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code without shareholder approval. The Plan will terminate on the day immediately preceding the tenth anniversary of its effective date, unless terminated earlier by the Compensation Committee.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK The following description of our capital stock is only a summary and is subject to the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, which are included as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and the provisions of applicable law. Our authorized capital stock consists of 19,970,000 shares of common stock, $.0001 par value per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.0001 par value per share. As of March 31, 2000, 4,935,308 shares of common stock were outstanding, held by 83 holders of record, and no shares of preferred stock were outstanding. COMMON STOCK Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive, as, when and if declared by the Board of Directors from time to time, such dividends and other distributions in cash, stock or property from our assets or funds legally available for such purposes, subject to any dividend preferences that may be attributable to preferred stock that is outstanding. Holders of the common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters on which shareholders may vote. There are no preemptive, conversion, redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in the assets available for distribution. CLASS B COMMON STOCK In connection with the purchase by cavion.com of the assets of LanXtra in February 1999, 28,648 shares of putable Class B common stock were issued to LanXtra. The Class B common stock was subject to a put option which entitled the holder to sell any and all shares of the Class B common stock to us at a price of $7.00 per share, which could be exercised at any time during the 60-day period beginning 30 days after the date we connected our 100th -57- customer to CUINET-Registered Trademark-. This 60-day period ended on March 31, 2000, at which time no holder of Class B common stock had exercised the put option. On that date, pursuant to our Articles of Incorporation, (i) each share of Class B common stock was automatically converted to one share of common stock, (ii) our authority to issue Class B common stock terminated, and (iii) our only other class of common stock, which had until that time been designated as Class A common stock, was designated as common stock. PREFERRED STOCK Our Board of Directors, without further action by the shareholders, is authorized to issue an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series. Our Board also may, without shareholder approval, determine the dividend rates, redemption prices, preferences on liquidation or dissolution, conversion rights, voting rights and any other preferences of such stock. Holders of preferred stock may not have any voting rights except as provided by Section 7-110-104 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act which requires voting by the holders of any class of shares on amendments to articles of incorporation that would affect the rights of holders of such class. Nevertheless, the issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control without further action of the shareholders. The Board of Directors previously authorized the issuance of 770,000 shares of Series A preferred stock in February 1999. 700,000 of those shares were issued to accredited investors in March and April 1999 in a private placement, and the other 70,000 shares were reserved for the exercise of preferred stock purchase warrants issued to Neidiger, Tucker, Bruner, Inc. (NTB), the placement agent in connection with the private placement. On November 3, 1999, the date of the closing of our initial public offering, each issued and outstanding share of Series A preferred stock was converted to one share of common stock, and the preferred stock purchase warrants were cancelled at that time at the request of NTB. COMMON STOCK WARRANTS We have warrants outstanding for the purchase of 30,000 shares of our common stock, which were issued in our August 1999 private placement of notes and warrants. These warrants are exercisable at $6.50 per share until November 3, 2004. We also have warrants outstanding for the purchase of 20,500 shares of our common stock, which were issued to the placement agent in connection with our February 2000 private placement of 205,000 shares of common stock. These warrants are exercisable at $13.20 per share until February 16, 2005. We issued to NTB, in connection with its acting as lead underwriter in our initial public offering, warrants to purchase 120,000 shares of our common stock at $8.125. These warrants are exercisable for a period of four years beginning October 29, 2000, and permit the cashless exercise of the warrants utilizing the value of the warrants being surrendered. We have agreed -58- with certain of the present holders of these warrants that 112,500 of these warrants will be exercised without a cash payment on November 3, 2000, in return for the issuance of 65,625 shares of common stock (representing an implied valuation of the common stock of $19.50 per share). In connection with the negotiation of this net exercise price, NTB forfeited its right of first refusal to act as our investment banker for future private or public securities offerings. The warrants issued to NTB and the underlying common shares are restricted from sale, transfer, assignment or hypothecation until October 29, 2002, except to officers of NTB, co-underwriters, selling group members, and their officers or partners. On and after that date, the warrants and the underlying shares of common stock will be transferable provided such transfer is in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act. SHAREHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT Our bylaws provide that any action that may be taken at a meeting of the shareholders may be taken without a meeting only if such action is authorized by the unanimous written consent of all shareholders entitled to vote at a meeting for such purposes. Since we have numerous shareholders, it is unlikely that action by unanimous written consent of the shareholders is feasible. SPECIAL MEETINGS Our Bylaws provide that special meetings of our shareholders may be called by our Board of Directors, by our President or by one or more written demands for the meeting, stating the purposes for which it is to be held, signed and dated by the holders of shares representing at least 10 percent of all the votes entitled to be cast on any issue proposed to be considered at the meeting. This provision may make it difficult for shareholders to take action opposed by the Board. AMENDMENTS TO OUR BYLAWS Our Bylaws provide that they may be amended or repealed by the shareholders or, except to the extent limited by Colorado law, by our Board of Directors. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS The Colorado Business Corporation Act provides the power to indemnify and pay the litigation expenses of any officer, director or agent who is made a party to any proceeding. Our Articles of Incorporation also provide for indemnification of our officers and directors for liabilities arising out of their service to us to the maximum extent permitted by law. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling cavion.com as provided in the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and thus cannot be enforced. -59- Our Bylaws provide that we shall indemnify any person against all liability and expense incurred by any reason of the person being or having been a director or officer of cavion.com to the full extent and in any manner that directors may be indemnified under Colorado law, our bylaws, a resolution of the board of directors or shareholders, by contract or otherwise so long as such provision is legally permissible. At the discretion of the Board of Directors, we may also indemnify any employee, fiduciary or agent who is not a director or officer to the same extent as a director or officer. Our Bylaws authorize us to take steps to ensure that all persons entitled to the indemnification are properly indemnified, including if the Board of Directors so determines, purchasing and maintaining insurance. We have also entered into indemnification agreements with each of our officers and directors to indemnify them and to advance expenses to the fullest extent permitted by law either in connection with the investigation, defense, adjudication, settlement or appeal of a proceeding or in connection with establishing or enforcing a right to indemnification or advancement of expenses. In addition, the agreements provide that no claim or cause of action may be asserted by us against such director or officer after two years from the date of the alleged act or omission, provided that if in fact the person has fraudulently concealed the facts, then no claim or cause of action may be asserted after two years from the earlier of the date we discover the facts or the date we should have discovered such facts by the exercise of reasonable diligence. The term of the agreements and our obligations apply while the person is our agent and continues so long as the person is subject to any claim by reason of the fact that he or she served as our agent. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY Our Articles of Incorporation provide that none of our directors shall be personally liable to us or our shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability: - for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty; - for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; - for the payment of unlawful dividends and specified other acts prohibited by Colorado corporate law; or - for any transaction resulting in receipt by the director of an improper personal benefit. -60- We have obtained directors and officers' liability insurance to provide directors and officers with insurance coverage for losses arising from claims based on breaches of duty, negligence, error and other wrongful acts. At present, there is no material pending litigation or proceeding, and we are not aware of any material threatened litigation or proceeding, involving any director, officer, employee or agent in which indemnification will be required or permitted under our articles of incorporation, bylaws or any indemnification agreement. TRANSFER AGENT The transfer agent for our common stock is American Securities Transfer & Trust, Inc. in Lakewood, Colorado. SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE As of March 31, 2000, there were 4,935,308 shares of common stock outstanding. Of these shares, 1,853,900 shares are freely tradable and 448,325 shares are freely tradable subject to lock up agreements imposed by Neidiger, Tucker, Bruner, Inc. ("NTB"), the lead underwriter in our initial public offering, which restricts shareholders from selling such shares for a period of nine months, or in some cases 12 months, from October 29, 1999, the date of our initial public offering, without the prior consent of NTB. NTB, however, may in its sole discretion, at any time and without notice, release all or any portion of the shares subject to its lock-up agreement. The remaining 2,633,083 shares are "restricted" shares subject to restriction upon resale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and are also subject to the lock up arrangement described above. As of March 31, 2000, we had 837,500 shares subject to outstanding stock options issued under our Equity Incentive Plan, and 152,666 shares of common stock available for future grants pursuant to such plan. Of these outstanding options 771,000 are subject to lock-up agreements imposed by NTB, as described above. We have registered 750,000 of the shares reserved to the plan, which will be freely tradable upon issuance, subject to any lock-up agreements. We intend to register all 995,000 shares reserved to the plan and this registration will permit resale of shares by non-affiliates in the public market without restriction, beginning on the expiration of any applicable lock up agreement. We also have 345,500 shares of common stock underlying outstanding warrants and options granted outside of our Equity Incentive Plan. Of these shares, 17,500 will be freely tradeable upon issuance and 153,000 will be freely tradeable upon issuance, subject to lock up agreements that expire between July and October 2000. Once issued, the remaining 175,000 shares will be eligible for resale in the public market upon expiration of the holder's respective one-year holding periods under Rule 144, which will begin upon the date of exercise or, in the case of a net exercise, on the date of grant of the option or warrant. In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person or persons whose shares are aggregated, who has beneficially owned shares for at least one year is entitled to sell within -61- any three-month period commencing 90 days after the date of this prospectus a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of: - 1% of the then outstanding shares of common stock, or - the average weekly trading volume of the common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the date upon which a Form 144 was filed with respect to the sale. Persons selling under Rule 144 must also comply with the requirements of Rule 144 concerning the availability of specific public information about us, the manner of sale and filing with the SEC of a notice of sale. However, a person, or persons whose shares are aggregated, who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of ours at any time during the three months immediately preceding the sale and who has beneficially owned his or her shares for at least two years is entitled to sell his or her shares under Rule 144(k) without regard to the limitations described above. Persons deemed to be affiliates must always sell under Rule 144 even after the one-year holding period has been satisfied. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS We believe that each of the following transactions was made on terms no less favorable to us than could have been obtained from an unaffiliated third party on an arm's length basis. The Company has adopted a policy under which any future transactions with our shareholders, officers and directors, or their affiliates, will be subject to the approval of a majority of the independent and disinterested outside directors and will be conducted on terms no less favorable to us than could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties on an arm's length basis. THE LANXTRA REORGANIZATION We were incorporated in August 1998 for the purpose of acquiring the assets and business operations of LanXtra, Inc. Prior to the acquisition, we and certain of our current directors, executive officers and 5% shareholders provided bridge funding (in the form of loans) to LanXtra in the principal amounts of $335,000 and $115,000, respectively. On February 1, 1999, we completed the acquisition of LanXtra's assets. In that acquisition, we issued to LanXtra 376,299 shares of our common stock and 28,648 shares of our Class B common stock and assumed LanXtra's liabilities. The loans made by our affiliates were repaid in November 1999 in accordance with the terms of the notes executed in connection with such loans. The following table sets forth (i) the number of shares of our common stock and Class B common stock received by our affiliates in connection with the acquisition of LanXtra; (ii) the amount of funds loaned to LanXtra by our affiliates; and (iii) the amount of principal and interest repaid to our affiliates. -62-

Boutine Capital owned 50% of MoneyLine America on August 18, 1999, the date of the agreement, and currently owns 5% of MoneyLine. In October 1999, we entered into a contract with Convergent Communications Services, Inc., pursuant to which Convergent provides connectivity between our network and our customers for a monthly fee, the amount of which fluctuates based on the total number of connections maintained and the amount of bandwidth provided. For the month ended March 31, 2000, the amount of this fee was approximately $40,000. We also sold our host site equipment to Convergent for a purchase price of $286,000 in October 1999, pursuant to the same contract.

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. 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.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cavion Technologies, Inc. as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 1999 and for the period from inception (August 18, 1998) to December 31, 1998, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The accompanying notes to financial statements are an integral part of these statements. F-10 CAVION TECHNOLOGIES, INC. (Formerly Network Acquisitions, Inc.) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND FOR THE PERIOD FROM INCEPTION (AUGUST 18, 1998) TO DECEMBER 31, 1998 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS: ORGANIZATION Cavion Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") offers products and services for business to business communications, secure Internet financial products, such as online banking and bill paying services, and secure Internet access and services for its customers. The Company is also building and managing a secure private communications network exclusively for the credit union industry. This network acts as a communications platform for the delivery of services and information to and from credit unions and related businesses. The Company was incorporated in Colorado on August 18, 1998 as Network Acquisitions, Inc. to acquire the assets of Cavion Technologies, Inc., now known as LanXtra, Inc. ("LanXtra"), which was engaged in providing internet, intranet, and extranet services to the credit union industry. On February 1, 1999, the Company acquired the business of LanXtra, and the Company changed its name to Cavion Technologies, Inc., doing business as cavion.com. On October 29, 1999, the Company successfully completed an Initial Public Offering ("IPO"). The number of shares offered and sold were 1,200,000, with an underwriter's over allotment option for an additional 180,000 shares. Total gross proceeds of $7,800,000 were raised in the offering, and the Company, after offering expenses, netted proceeds of approximately $6,288,000. In November 1999, the Company sold 90,500 additional shares from the underwriters overallotment option, raising additional gross proceeds of approximately $588,000, and net proceeds of approximately $467,000. The total number of shares outstanding after the offering was 4,696,826, reflecting the automatic conversion of 700,000 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock into 700,000 shares of common stock upon the closing of the offering. In addition, at the closing of the IPO, the Company issued warrants to purchase 120,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock to the Representative of the underwriter at a price of 125% equal to the IPO price, or $8.125 per share. F-11 Prior to the IPO, the Company financed its operations through a private placement of its 15% notes, which were offered commencing on October 20, 1998 (the "Offering"), the sale of Series A Preferred Stock and funding through a Bridge Loan. The Company advanced a portion of the proceeds from the Offering to LanXtra in anticipation of the acquisition of LanXtra. Through December 31, 1998, the Company had raised $370,000 in the private placement and had advanced LanXtra a total of $335,000 under an agreement dated September 14, 1998. PURCHASE OF LANXTRA'S ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND OPERATIONS In August 1998, the Company signed a letter of intent to purchase LanXtra's business. In December 1998, the Company signed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with LanXtra to purchase substantially all the assets of LanXtra in exchange for approximately 375,214 shares and 28,648 shares of the Company's Class A and B Common Stock, respectively, and the Company assumed the operations of LanXtra on that date. Upon consummation, significant modifications were made to LanXtra's capital structure. On December 21, 1998, the Company issued 625,356 shares to certain shareholders of LanXtra who could continue as management of the Company. One of these shareholders held directly and through irrevocable proxies sufficient voting shares to approve the transaction. The shares are non-forfeitable and not contingent upon the management's continued employment with the Company. As a result, the shares have been considered additional purchase consideration and are recorded at their estimated fair value of $3 per share. The estimated fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration issued in the transaction with LanXtra are as follows: Consideration: Class A Common Stock $3,001,710 Class B Common Stock 167,197 Cash 338,735 --------- 3,507,642 Add: Net liabilities (assets) assumed: Working capital deficit assumed 706,044 Property and equipment (331,020) Borrowings assumed 924,417 Other assets (41,815) ---------- Goodwill $4,765,268 ==========
F-12 The Company has recorded the fair value of its stock issued to LanXtra at $3 per share based principally upon its private placement of Series A Preferred Stock completed in February 1999. The transaction with LanXtra resulted in approximately $4,760,000 of goodwill, and will be amortized over five years. Because the business now operated by the Company has never been profitable, and due to the other risks and uncertainties discussed herein, it is reasonably possible that an analysis of these long-lived assets in future periods could result in a conclusion that they are impaired, and the amount of the impairment could be substantial. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. CONCENTRATION RISKS Financial instruments which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are accounts receivable and cash equivalents. The Company's receivables are concentrated among credit unions. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally requires no collateral. Additionally, the Company manages a portion of its credit risk by billing certain services in advance. The Company has no significant financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk of accounting loss, such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other hedging arrangements. The Company's cash balances are maintained in demand deposits at financial institutions that the Company believes to be creditworthy. Cavion purchases substantially all of its telecommunications services from Convergent Communications Services, Inc. ("Convergent"). Cavion has entered into a non-exclusive agreement with Convergent to establish and maintain connectivity between Cavion's network and substantially all of its customers. Cavion's business depends upon the ability of Convergent, or some other telecommunications service provider, to establish and maintain connectivity with CUINET-Registered Trademark-. If Convergent is unable to provide connectivity in a timely manner to new customers or experiences problems in delivering services to existing customers, F-13 the business could be adversely affected. If Cavion is unable to continue to obtain services from Convergent or some other provider on economically favorable terms, the operations of the business and its financial performance may be adversely affected. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, short-term trade payables, putable common stock and borrowings. The carrying values of the instruments acquired from LanXtra approximate the fair value placed upon them on February 1, 1999, in connection with their assumption. Fair values were principally determined by discounting expected future cash flows at a market cost of debt. The fair value of the Company's other borrowings approximate their carrying values based upon current market rates of interest. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment acquired from LanXtra was recorded at its estimated fair value. Additions are recorded at cost. Property and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the lesser of the lease term or their estimated lives as follows: Furniture and fixtures 7 years Network equipment 3 - 5 years Licensed software 3 years Leasehold improvements Life of the lease
The Company recorded depreciation expense of approximately $116,000 in 1999. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. Impairment losses are recorded for the difference between the carrying value and fair value of the long-lived assets. The acquisition of LanXtra generated approximately $4,760,000 of intangible assets, which are continuously reviewed by the Company for impairments. OFFERING COSTS The Company has incurred offering costs which total $1,885,777 for the year ended December 31, 1999. Such costs represent legal and other professional fees incurred related to the Company's IPO and issuance of Series A Preferred Stock. Such costs were recorded as a reduction of IPO proceeds upon the consummation of the IPO on October 29, 1999. In addition to cash offering costs, warrants were issued to the selling agent and underwriter valued at $366,234, which excludes $165,200 worth of warrants issued and later canceled. F-14 ACCRUED LIABILITIES Accrued liabilities consist of the following:
December 31, December 31, 1999 1998 ------------ ------------ Accrued payroll and vacation $ 53,938 $ - Accrued professional fees 67,854 - Accrued Telecom and Telecom termination fees for Convergent contract 81,392 - Other liabilities 172,340 31,185 -------- ------- Total accrued liabilities $375,524 $31,185 ======== =======
INCOME TAXES A current provision for income taxes is recorded for actual or estimated amounts payable or refundable on tax returns filed or to be filed for each year. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and carryforwards. The overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax expense for the period. Effects of changes in tax laws on deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected as adjustments to tax expense in the period of enactment. Deferred tax assets are recognized for the expected future tax effects of all deductible temporary differences, loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced, if deemed necessary, by a valuation allowance for the amount of any tax benefits which, more likely than not based on current circumstances, are not expected to be realized. NET LOSS PER SHARE The Company reports net loss per share in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which requires the presentation of both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Basic net loss per common share has been computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Weighted average common shares excludes 28,648 shares of putable Class B Common Stock as an assumed cash settlement is more dilutive. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period if the effect of the potential common shares is dilutive. The Company has also excluded F-15 the weighted average effect of common stock issuable upon exercise of all warrants and options from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the effect of all such securities is anti-dilutive for the periods presented. The shares excluded related to outstanding options and warrants (without regard to the treasury stock method) at December 31, 1999 and 1998 were 511,000 and 4,440, respectively. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION The Company accounts for its employee stock option plan and other employee stock-based compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB No. 25"), and related interpretations. The Company adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"), which allows entities to continue to apply the provisions of APB No. 25 for transactions with employees and provide pro forma disclosures for employee stock grants as if the fair-value-based method of accounting in SFAS No. 123 had been applied to these transactions. The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and related interpretation. REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company generates revenue from three sources: (1) service revenue for the installation of equipment for internet access and access to the Company's secure financial network at customer sites, (2) software license fees, and (3) recurring monthly network access and connectivity fees. Service revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Software license arrangements typically provide for enhancements over the term of the arrangement, and software license fees are generally received in advance, deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement. Network access and connectivity fees are typically billed in advance and recognized in the month that the access/connectivity is provided. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS The Company capitalizes software development costs when a software product is determined to be technologically feasible. The Company's software products are deemed to be technologically feasible at the point the Company commences field testing of the software. The period from field testing to general customer release of the software has been brief and the costs incurred during this period were insignificant. Accordingly, the Company has not capitalized any qualifying software development costs. ADVERTISING The Company expenses advertising as incurred. Advertising expense was $141,196 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. F-16 COMPREHENSIVE INCOME The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130"). SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. Comprehensive income, as defined, includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. From inception through December 31, 1999, there have been no differences between the Company's comprehensive loss and its net loss. SEGMENT INFORMATION In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 131, the Company has determined that it does not have separately reportable operating segments. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"), and in June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB 133" ("SFAS No 137"). SFAS No. 137 requires the Company to adopt SFAS No. 133 for all quarters in the year ended December 31, 2001. SFAS No. 133 establishes methods of accounting for derivative financial instruments and hedging activities related to those instruments as well as other hedging activities. To date, the Company has not entered into any derivative financial instruments or hedging activities. During December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission released Staff Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition" ("SAB 101"), to establish guidelines for revenue recognition and enhance revenue recognition disclosure requirements. SAB 101 clarifies basic criteria for when revenues are taken into account for purposes of a company's financial statements. SAB 101 is effective for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. The Company is currently assessing the implications of adopting SAB 101. In the period of adoption, the cumulative impact will be reported as a change in accounting principle as dictated by SAB 101. F-17 3. BORROWINGS: The Company's borrowings at December 31, 1999 and 1998, consisted of the following:
1999 1998 ------------------------- --------------------------- Unamortized Unamortized Face Value Discount Face Value Discount ---------- -------- ---------- -------- Notes payable $470,000 $ - $370,000 $(117,167) -------- ---------- -------- --------- $470,000 $ - $370,000 $(117,167) ======== ========== ======== =========
BRIDGE LOAN In August 1999, the Company raised $300,000 through Neidiger, Tucker, Bruner, Inc. and First Capital Investments, Inc. ("FCI" or the "Selling Agent"). The Bridge Loan bore interest at 14% and was to mature upon the earlier of the closing of the Company's IPO or one year from the date of the note. The loan was paid in full upon the closing of the IPO. FCI, is a related party through its substantial ownership of the Company's common stock. Upon their issuance, the proceeds of the Bridge loan were discounted to reflect the estimated fair value of warrants issued to the holders of the bridge loan debt. The discount was amortized as interest expense over the estimated term of the notes. Debt issuance costs in the amount of $31,045 were paid in conjunction with the issuance of these notes and were amortized as interest expense over the term of the notes. The estimated fair value of the warrants was $33,127 and was determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model, assuming a volatility factor of .001%, a risk free rate of 6.22% and a fair market value of the underlying stock of $6.75 per share. The warrants are still outstanding at December 31, 1999. NOTE PAYABLE Beginning on October 20, 1998, the Company offered through its officers, directors and FCI, up to $2,000,000 of 15% secured notes due October 19, 2000 (the "Notes") along with warrants to purchase Class A Common Stock (the "Warrants"). At December 31, 1998, the Company had raised $370,000 through the Offering. The Company raised a total of $470,000, and the Offering closed on February 8, 1999. The Notes are secured by substantially all of the assets now owned and hereafter acquired by the Company, including the assets acquired from LanXtra in February 1999. There is no pre-payment penalty. F-18 In connection with the Offering, the Company granted note holders Warrants to purchase 1,200 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock for every $10,000 of Notes purchased. Accordingly, at December 31, 1998, the Company had issued Warrants for 44,400 shares, and in February 1999, issued Warrants for an additional 12,000 shares. Such Warrants had an exercise price of $0.01 per share. These detachable Warrants were valued at a total of $169,660 utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model, assuming a volatility factor of 70%, a risk free interest rate of 4.31% and a fair market value of the underlying common stock of $3 per share. All Warrants have been exercised. REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT As part of the Purchase Agreement, a $600,000 Revolving Line of Credit was assumed by the Company. The line of credit accrued interest at a rate equal to the bank's reference rate plus 1.5% (9.25% at December 31, 1998). The Revolving Line of Credit was collateralized by letters of credit issued by the Company and certain LanXtra stockholders as well as by agreements among certain LanXtra stockholders. The Revolving Line of Credit was paid in full and cancelled after the IPO proceeds were received, at which point the corresponding collateralized letters of credit were released. NOTES PAYABLE TO STOCKHOLDERS The Company assumed notes payable to certain LanXtra stockholders as part of the Purchase Agreement. The maturity date on these notes was extended to the date on which the Company obtains 100 credit union customers (the "100 Credit Union Date"). The 100 Credit Union Date was reached on December 31, 1999. In addition, interest terms were amended such that no interest was to accrue for the remaining term of the notes payable. At the acquisition date, the notes were discounted to reflect their fair value. The discount was amortized as interest expense over the remaining estimated term of the notes. The notes payable to stockholders were repaid in full after the IPO proceeds were received. As additional consideration for shareholder notes with a face value of $240,000, LanXtra issued 28,648 shares of its putable common stock. These putable shares were exchanged for 28,648 shares of the Company's Class B Putable Common Stock. The lenders have the right to sell these shares back to the Company for a purchase price of $7 per share, through March 30, 2000, or can convert these shares into equivalent shares of Class A Common Stock. If these shares are not redeemed or converted at the request of the shareholder, they will automatically be converted on March 31, 2000. As a result of this transaction, the Class B shares were recorded at their estimated fair value of $167,197. The difference between this amount and the put value of $200,537 was accreted as interest expense over the estimated term of the notes. F-19 RELATED PARTY COLLATERALIZED LOANS The Company also assumed certain factoring agreements (the "Agreements") with management and a stockholder of the Company as part of the Purchase Agreement. The interest terms were amended such that no interest would be accrued for the remaining term of the loans and the maturity of these loans was extended to the 100 Credit Union Date. The related party collateralized loans were paid in full after the IPO proceeds were received and cancelled. MATURITIES OF BORROWINGS The Company's borrowings as of December 31, 1999, totaling $470,000 mature in year 2000. 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS: MONEYLINE AMERICA, LLC In August 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with MoneyLine America, LLC, (the "MoneyLine Agreement"), which provides that the Company will receive payments under an agreement with MoneyLine to provide on line mortgage lending services for credit unions and their members through the Company's network. This agreement calls for a minimum payment of $300,000 in the first year, beginning September 1999, escalating to $1,000,000 in years six through ten, provided the Company has at least 1,500 credit unions, or 12% of the U.S. credit unions on its network by the end of year three. The amounts received are reflected as deferred revenue - license agreements in the accompanying balance sheets. Fifty percent of MoneyLine America is owned by Boutine Capital, LLC, a principal shareholder of the Company. CONVERGENT COMMUNICATIONS Effective October 22, 1999, the Company entered into a five-year agreement with Convergent. This agreement includes a sale lease back of certain network equipment. Equipment with a net book value of $265,394 was sold for $285,976. A corresponding deferred gain of $20,582 was recorded and will be recognized over the life of the leases. Under this agreement, Convergent will establish, maintain and support network connectivity between the Company's network and its customers, including providing, equipment, maintenance and related services for the network. One of the Company's directors is the Chief Executive Officer and chairman of the board of Convergent Communications, Inc. the parent company of Convergent. In addition, Convergent owns 64,000 shares of the Company's stock at December 31, 1999. 5. CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS: The Company assumed several capital lease agreements related to computers and various office equipment in conjunction with the Purchase Agreement. The Company has also entered into additional capital lease agreements during the year ended December 31, 1999. The capital F-20 leases have terms ranging from 24 to 60 months with interest rates ranging between 9% and 20.3%. As of December 31, 1999, the present value of the future minimum lease payments is as follows: 2000 $ 196,163 2001 184,782 2002 119,455 2003 93,065 2004 77,555 ----------- 671,020 Less: amounts representing interest (147,026) ----------- 523,994 Less: current portion (137,500) ----------- Long-term capital lease obligation $ 386,494 ===========
The net book value of assets under capital lease obligations as of December 31,1999 was approximately $530,779. 6. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY: The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share. The common stock is segregated into two classes: Class A and Class B. Of the 20,000,000 shares of common stock, 19,970,000 are designated as Class A and 30,000 are designated as Class B. CLASS A COMMON STOCK At December 31, 1999, 4,697,326 shares of Class A Common Stock were issued and outstanding. Two million shares were issued for consideration of $.0001 per share (par value). Certain LanXtra shareholders and management were issued 625,356 shares for cash consideration of $.01 per share. The estimated fair value assigned to these shares was $3 per share which is consistent with the value assigned to the 375,214 shares issued to LanXtra in February 1999. The holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on record on each matter submitted to a vote of shareholders. Cumulative voting for election of directors is not permitted. Holders of Class A Common Stock have no preemptive rights or rights to convert their Class A Common Stock into any other securities. F-21 CLASS B COMMON STOCK As of December 31, 1999, there were 28,648 shares of the Class B voting Common Stock issued and outstanding. These shares were issued in exchange for similar securities of LanXtra as partial consideration for the purchase of LanXtra's business, and are callable by the Company at $7 per share. The holders of Class B Common Stock have the right to sell the Class B Common Stock to the Company at $7 per share or convert their shares to equivalent units of Class A Common Stock on March 30, 2000. If these shares are not redeemed or converted at the request of the shareholder, they will automatically be converted on March 31, 2000. The Class B Common Stock was authorized so that the Company could exchange its Class B Common Stock for LanXtra's existing nonvoting putable common stock with similar terms. PREFERRED STOCK In February 1999, the Board of Directors authorized the Company, without further action by the shareholders, to issue 10,000,000 shares of one or more series of preferred stock at a par value of $.0001, all of which is nonvoting. The Board of Directors may, without shareholder approval, determine the dividend rates, redemption prices, preferences on liquidation or dissolution, conversion rights, voting rights and any other preferences. In addition, the Company authorized the sale of 700,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in conjunction with a private placement offering of the stock. Each share of the Series A Preferred Stock was convertible at any time at the holder's option into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company at a conversion price initially equal to the offering price, which was established at $3 per share. Each share of the Series A Preferred Stock was automatically convertible into an equal number of Class A shares upon certain conditions, including an IPO. The Company sold 700,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at $3 per share, raising proceeds of $2,100,000. All Series A preferred shares were converted to Class A Common Stock on the closing date of the IPO. The Series A Preferred Stock bore dividends a the rate of 5% per year, payable in cash or shares of the Company's Class A common stock. During 1999, the Company paid $64,197 of dividends. WARRANTS As part of the underwriter's compensation for the funds raised in the Company's IPO, the Company agreed to sell, for $100, warrants to purchase 120,000 shares of the Class A Common Stock. The warrants are exercisable at any time during a five-year term at an exercise price equal to 125% of the offering price, or $8.125. The warrants outstanding were valued at a total of $366,234, utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model assuming a volatility factor of 53%, a risk free interest rate of 6.22% and a fair market value of the F-22 underlying shares of $6.50. The value of these warrants were recorded as a reduction of additional paid in capital received from the initial public offering. In conjunction with the issuance of the August 1999 Bridge Loan, the Company granted the Bridge Loan holders warrants to purchase 5,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock for every $50,000 of notes purchased. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years beginning on the earlier to occur of (i) the closing of the IPO or (ii) one year from the date of the warrant. These detachable warrants were valued at a total of $33,127 utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model, assuming a volatility factor of 70%, a risk free rate of 6.22% and a fair value of the underlying common stock of $6.75 per share. The Company issued warrants with the private placement of notes payable in October 1998 which allow the purchase of 1,200 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock for every $10,000 of notes payable. The exercise price was $0.01 per share. Originally, the warrant exercise period was for a period of one year beginning on the maturity date of the notes payable. On December 22, 1998, the Company accelerated the exercise period to begin immediately and end one year after each note's issuance date. All holders of warrants at that date elected to immediately exercise their warrants. Warrants for 44,400 shares of Class A Common Stock were issued and exercised at December 31, 1998. Warrants for an additional 12,000 shares of Class A Common Stock were issued and immediately exercised during 1999. The Company redeemed 17,640 and 44,400 shares of Class A Common Stock from its existing shareholders for a redemption price of $.0001 per share during the year ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The redeemed shares were reissued in connection with the exercise of the warrants issued to note holders and the Selling Agent. As part of the Selling Agent's compensation, the Company agreed to issue additional warrants for the Company's Class A Common Stock. The warrants are exercisable at any time during a five-year term at 110% of the price paid by the holders of the Notes for the Class A Common Stock. At December 31, 1998, the Selling Agent earned the right to purchase 4,440 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $.011 per share. At September 30, 1999, the Selling Agent earned the right to purchase an additional 1,200 shares under the same terms. The 4,440 warrants outstanding at December 31, 1998, were valued at a total of $13,284 and the additional 1,200 warrants were valued at $3,590, utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model assuming a volatility factor of 70%, a risk free interest rate of 4.31% and a fair market value of the underlying shares of $3 per share. The warrants were recorded as debt issuance costs and are being amortized into interest expense over the life of the debt. All such warrants have been exercised. STOCK OPTIONS Effective March 19, 1999, the Company adopted a stock option plan (the "Plan"). The Plan provides for grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options and restricted stock to F-23 designated employees, officers, directors, advisors and independent contractors. The Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 750,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. Under the Plan, the exercise price per share of a non-qualified stock option must be equal to at least 50% of the fair market value of the common stock at the grant date, and the exercise price per share of an incentive stock option must equal the fair market value of the common stock at the grant date. Through December 31, 1999, options for 505,500 shares of Class A Common Stock have been issued under the Plan. The outstanding stock options have an average exercise price of $4.19 per share, with a range of $3.00 to $6.25, and vest over various terms with a maximum vesting period of 18 months and expire after the contract period of ten years. During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company granted options for 20,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to non-employees in exchange for services. The exercise price of these options range from $3.00 to $6.00 per share. The fair value of these options on the date of grant was approximately $107,000. Expense related to such options will be recorded over the term the services are provided. The fair value of each non-employee option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Assumptions used to calculate the fair value were risk free interest rates of 4.48% to 6.22%, no dividend yields, a life of five to ten years and volatility of 53%. The following table summarizes stock option activity under the Plan:
Granted to Granted to Non- Employees Employees ------------------------ ---------------------- Weighted Weighted Average Average Exercise Exercise Shares Price Shares Price -------- -------- ------- -------- Outstanding at January 1, 1999 - $ - - $ - Granted 505,500 $4.19 20,000 $4.50 Exercised (500) 3.00 - - Canceled (14,000) 3.38 - - -------- ----- ------- ------ Outstanding at December 31, 1999 491,000 $4.41 20,000 $4.50 ======== ===== ======= ====== Exercisable at December 31, 1999 157,124 $3.45 - $ - ======== ===== ======= ====== Weighted average fair value of options granted during the year $1.64 $2.67 ===== =====
Under the fair value approach of SFAS 123, the total fair value of options granted under the Plan during 1999 was $829,509. If the Company had accounted for its stock option plan in F-24 accordance with SFAS 123, the Company's net loss and pro forma net loss would have been reported as follows:
Year Ended December 31, 1999 ----------------- Net loss: As reported $(4,753,519) ============= Pro forma $(5,180,247) ============= Per share data: As reported $ (1.56) ============= Pro forma $ (1.71) =============
The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the minimum value method. Assumptions used to calculate the fair value were risk free interest rates of 6.22% to 6.25%, no dividend yields, an expected life of three to five years and volatility of .001% to 53%. 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: LEGAL MATTERS In connection with the Purchase Agreement transaction, a shareholder of LanXtra exercised his rights as a dissenting shareholder. The Company assumed LanXtra's obligation (if any) to this dissenting shareholder. If the shareholder is permitted to pursue his claim in a legal proceeding, LanXtra could be required to pay the shareholder the fair value of his shares immediately before the closing date of the Purchase Agreement. The Company's and LanXtra's management believes that the value paid on account of these shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement is greater than the amount which the dissenting shareholder could recover under Colorado law. The dissenting shareholder has asserted that the value of his 50,000 LanXtra shares immediately before the closing date of the Purchase Agreement would be approximately $250,000. The ultimate resolution of the matter, which is expected to occur within one year, could result in an obligation to such shareholder. Further, should LanXtra, or the Company as successor, be required to make a payment to this shareholder, such payment could result in the purchase transaction being treated as a taxable transaction which could subject the Company to a significant tax liability. In accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the Company may become legally obligated to satisfy additional liabilities of LanXtra, including liabilities arising on or after the closing date with respect to LanXtra's assets or business. To date, no liabilities other than those identified in the Purchase Agreement have arisen, however, other liabilities could arise in the future. F-25 The Company is exposed to legal claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In management's opinion, none of the claims currently asserted will result in a material liability or change to earnings. 8. INCOME TAXES: The Company has had losses since its Inception, and therefore has not been subject to federal or state income taxes. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had an accumulated net operating loss ("NOL") carryforward for income tax purposes of approximately $5,179,000. Approximately $1,800,000 of this NOL was acquired through the purchaser of LanXtra. This acquired NOL is subject to certain limitations and if utilized would be recorded as a reduction of purchased goodwill. The carryforward is subject to examination by the tax authorities and expires at various dates through the year 2014. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 contains provisions that may limit the NOL carryforwards available for use in any given year upon the occurrence of certain events, including significant changes in ownership interest. A change of ownership of a company greater than 50% within a three-year period results in an annual limitation on the Company's ability to utilize its NOL carryforwards from tax periods prior to the ownership change. F-26 Deferred tax assets and liabilities consist of the following:
1999 1998 ------------- ------------ Current deferred tax assets (liabilities): Deferred revenue $ 70,637 $ - Accrued compensation 6,134 - Other 15,086 - ------------- ------------ 91,857 - Less valuation allowance (91,857) - ------------- ------------ Total current deferred tax assets (liabilities) - - Non-current deferred assets (liabilities): Net operating loss carryforwards $ 1,968,155 $ 13,659 Depreciation differences (12,129) - Other 12,129 - ------------- ------------ 1,968,155 13,659 Less valuation allowance (1,968,155) (13,659) ------------- ------------ Total non-current deferred tax assets (liabilities) - - ------------- ------------ Net deferred taxes $ - $ - ============= ============
Included in the Company's deferred tax assets is a benefit resulting from the accumulated NOL and other previously unrecognized tax benefits. Recognition of the NOL and these benefits requires future taxable income, the attainment of which is uncertain, and therefore, a valuation allowance has been established for the NOL benefit and for the deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities, and no benefit for income taxes has been recognized in the accompanying statements of operations. F-27 The Company recorded income tax expenses and benefits for the years ended December 31 as follows:
1999 1998 ----------- --------- Current tax benefit $ (1,275,298) $ (3,017) Deferred tax benefit (61,444) (10,642) Valuation provision 1,336,742 13,659 ------------ --------- $ - $ - ============ =========
The differences in income taxes provided and the amounts determined by applying the federal statutory rate to income taxes result from the following:
1999 1998 ----------- --------- Income tax benefit using federal statutory rate $(1,616,196) $(12,221) State income tax benefit, net (190,141) (1,438) Goodwill amortization 331,981 - Accretion of debt discount 122,253 - Meals, entertainment and other 15,361 - Change in valuation allowance 1,336,742 13,659 ------------ --------- $ - $ - ============ =========
9. ACQUISITION OF LANXTRA BUSINESS (UNAUDITED): As discussed above, the Company acquired the business of LanXtra on February 1, 1999. The following is pro forma operating information. For purposes of the pro forma statement of operations, the transaction was assumed to be consummated on January 1, 1998. Pro forma earnings per share are calculated as if the Purchase Agreement was completed on January 1, 1998 and the related 1,029,218 shares of common stock were issued on that date. F-28 The pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1998 is as follows:

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS: On February 14, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement for investor relations consulting services with Strategic Growth International, Inc. ("SGI"). In connection with the agreement, the Company granted SGI options to purchase 175,000 shares of our class A common stock exercisable at $11.1875 for a period of five years. The agreement has a term of one-year and requires monthly payments of $8,000 to SGI for the services. On February 17, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to issue, for $12.00 per share, the closing price on February 14, the date of the offering to the investors, 205,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock in a private transaction. Gross proceeds of $2,460,000 were raised, and the Company, after a reduction of $196,800 for the selling agent's commission, netted proceeds of $2,263,200. In conjunction with this private placement, warrants to purchase 20,500 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock were issued to the selling agent. F-30 LANXTRA, INC. (Formerly Cavion Technologies, Inc. and Sigmacom Corporation) FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF JANUARY 31, 1999, DECEMBER 31, 1998, AND DECEMBER 31, 1997 TOGETHER WITH REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS F-31 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To LanXtra, Inc.: We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of LANXTRA, INC. (a Colorado corporation; formerly Cavion Technologies, Inc. and Sigmacom Corporation) as of January 31, 1999, December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the one-month period ended January 31, 1999 and for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997. 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 generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of LanXtra, Inc. as of January 31, 1999, December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the one-month period ended January 31, 1999 and for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 all in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Effective February 1, 1999, substantially all of the Company's assets were transferred to Cavion Technologies, Inc. in exchange for common stock and the assumption of the Company's liabilities. Subsequent to this transaction, the Company's activities will be limited to holding warrants to purchase the common stock of Convergent Communications Services, Inc. and common stock of Cavion Technologies, Inc. In April 1999, the Board of Directors resolved to form a limited liability company and contribute the Company's remaining assets into such company. The ability of the Company and its successor limited liability company to continue operations depends upon the ultimate value, if any, of the financial instruments held and the resolution of the matters discussed in Note 7. This raises substantial doubt about the Company and its successor's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying notes to financial statements are an integral part of these statements. F-37 LANXTRA, INC. (Formerly Cavion Technologies, Inc. and Sigmacom Corporation) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED JANUARY 31, 1999 AND FOR YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997 (1) DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS ORGANIZATION Sigmacom Corporation ("Sigmacom") was incorporated under the laws of the state of Colorado on June 26, 1992. In 1998 Sigmacom changed its name to Cavion Technologies, Inc. Effective January 1999, Cavion Technologies, Inc. changed its name to LanXtra, Inc. ("LanXtra" or the "Company"). Before 1998, the Company was engaged in integrating computer networks and communications technologies for financial institutions, Fortune 1000 companies and government agencies. On December 3, 1997, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Convergent Communications Services, Inc. ("Convergent") for the sale of certain assets of the Company, including all assets related to the Company's network integrator business, including, without limitation, the name, "Sigmacom". Since January 1, 1998, the Company has been engaged in developing and marketing a suite of network products and services for the credit union industry that includes: (1) a secure network that enables access via the internet or an intranet; (2) secure internet financial products such as internet banking software; and (3) secure internet access services for credit unions. Subsequent to the transaction discussed below, the Company's activities will be limited to holding warrants for the purchase of Convergent common stock and common stock of the new Cavion Technologies, Inc. Further, in April 1999, the Board of Directors resolved to form a limited liability company and contribute the Company's remaining assets into such company. The ability of the Company and its successor limited liability company to continue operations depends upon the ultimate value, if any, of the financial instruments held and the resolution of the matters discussed in Note 7. This raises substantial doubt about the Company and its successor's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. F-38 TRANSFER OF THE COMPANY'S ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND OPERATIONS In August 1998, the Company signed a letter of intent to transfer its assets and operations to a company to be renamed Cavion Technologies, Inc. ("Cavion"). In December 1998, the Company signed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Cavion for the transfer of substantially all the assets of the Company in exchange for 375,214 shares and 28,648 shares of Cavion's Class A and B common stock, respectively, and the assumption of liabilities. Also in December 1998, management shareholders of LanXtra received 625,356 shares of Class A common stock directly from Cavion. These management shareholders held sufficient voting shares, directly and indirectly through irrevocable proxies, to approve the transaction with Cavion. The Class A common stock and Class B common stock of Cavion are alike in all respects, except that the Class B common shareholders have the option to put those shares to Cavion for $7 per share and a parallel call option is held by Cavion. The Class A common stock issued to the Company represents approximately 12% of the common equity of Cavion. The Purchase Agreement was consummated on February 1, 1999 and Cavion has subsequently assumed the operations of the Company. During the period from August 1998 through February 1, 1999, Cavion provided loans to the Company totaling $335,000 at January 31, 1999. Such loans were forgiven as part of the transaction. In management's opinion, the purchase of the Company's assets and assumption of its liabilities by Cavion will qualify under Internal Revenue Code regulations as a tax free reorganization. Upon consummation of the Purchase Agreement, several of the Company's contractual arrangements were significantly modified. The Company's Investment Agreement, warrant and option agreements were cancelled and certain debt maturities were rescheduled by the creditors (see Notes 3 and 5). Cavion is an entity formed by various third parties to acquire the business conducted by the Company. Through January 31, 1999, Cavion had raised $370,000 through debt offerings, $335,000 of which was advanced to the Company as of January 31, 1999. In February 1999, Cavion conducted a private placement of its Series A preferred stock, raising approximately $2 million. The business now conducted by Cavion has never been profitable, and there is substantial risk associated with the Company's investment in Cavion common stock. It is probable that the value of this common stock will be highly volatile and it is reasonably possible that the ultimate value realized from the stock could be zero. F-39 (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION Accounting for transactions during the one-month period ending January 31, 1999, is on the same basis of accounting as for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997. The Company has presented information as of and for the one-month period ended January 31, 1999, as this represents the final period in which the business transferred to Cavion was conducted by the Company. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considered all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The fair value of the Company's cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables approximated their carrying amounts due to their short-term nature. The fair value of the Company's other financial instruments are as follows:
January 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 ------------------------------------ Approximate Carrying Fair Amount Value ------------------ ---------------- Related party collateralized loans $ 13,410 $ 11,000 Notes payable to stockholders 300,000 260,000 Revolving line of credit 600,000 600,000 Putable stock 1,700,236/1,650,236 175,000
F-40
December 31, 1997 --------------------------------- Approximate Carrying Fair Amount Value --------------- ---------------- Related party collateralized notes $ 75,190 $ 6,000 Notes payable to stockholders 40,000 3,000 Revolving line of credit 600,000 600,000 Putable stock 837,500 15,000
Fair values at January 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 have been estimated using the values placed on them by the buyer in the transaction described above. Fair values at December 31, 1997, have been estimated based upon the terms of subsequent financings. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments which potentially subjected the Company to concentrations of credit risk were accounts receivable, which were concentrated among credit union customers. The Company performed ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally required no collateral. Additionally, the Company managed a portion of its credit risk by billing certain services in advance. The Company had no significant financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk of accounting loss, such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other hedging arrangements. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment were recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the lesser of the lease term or their estimated lives as follows: Furniture and fixtures 7 years Computer equipment 3 - 5 years Licensed software 3 years Leasehold improvements Life of the lease IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Company reviewed its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicated that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. During 1997 and 1998 and in January 1999, no impairment losses were recorded. F-41 ACCRUED LIABILITIES Accrued liabilities consist of the following:
January 31, December 31, -------------------------- 1999 1998 1997 ------------- ----------- ----------- Wages payable and accrued vacation $ 48,545 $ 44,661 $ 30,924 Accrued vendor payable 78,673 78,673 78,673 Accrued professional fees 41,257 27,500 9,657 Other liabilities 17,969 21,074 92,093 ------- ------- ------- Total accrued liabilities $186,444 $171,908 $211,347 ======= ======= =======
INCOME TAXES A current provision for income taxes was recorded for actual or estimated amounts payable or refundable on tax returns filed or to be filed for each year. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities were recorded for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and carryforwards. The overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measured the deferred tax expense for the period. Effects of changes in tax laws on deferred tax assets and liabilities were reflected as adjustments to tax expense in the period of enactment. Deferred tax assets were recognized for the expected future tax effects of all deductible temporary differences, loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets were then reduced, if deemed necessary, by a valuation allowance for the amount of any tax benefits which, more likely than not based on current circumstances, were not expected to be realized. NET LOSS PER SHARE The Company reports net loss per share in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" which requires the presentation of both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Basic net loss per common share has been computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding putable common stock as an assumed cash settlement is more dilutive than a share settlement. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period if the effect of the potential common shares is dilutive. The Company has excluded the weighted average effect of common stock issuable upon exercise of all warrants and options for common stock from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the effect of all such securities is anti-dilutive for all periods presented. The shares excluded (without regard to the treasury stock method) are as follows: F-42 For the year ended December 31: 1998 531,978 1997 307,113 There are no such shares excluded for the month ended January 31, 1999, due to the cancellation of options and warrants at December 31, 1998. Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed using the following average shares outstanding:
Month Ended Years Ended December 31, January 31, ---------------------------- 1999 1998 1997 ------------- ------------- ------------- Weighted average shares outstanding 315,112 304,130 237,205 Less: Weighted average shares of putable stock (58,648) (46,811) (30,000) ------- ------- ------- Net weighted average shares outstanding 256,464 257,319 207,205 ======= ======= =======
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION The Company accounted for its employee stock option plans and other employee stock-based compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"), and related interpretations. The Company adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"), which allows entities to continue to apply the provisions of APB 25 for transactions with employees and provide pro forma disclosures for employee stock grants made in 1997 and future years as if the fair-value-based method of accounting in SFAS No. 123 had been applied to these transactions. The Company accounted for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123. REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company generated revenue from three sources: (1) service revenue for the installation of internet access equipment at customer sites, (2) software license fees, and (3) recurring monthly network access and connectivity fees. Service revenue was recognized as the services were performed. Software license arrangements typically provided for enhancements over the term of the arrangement, and software license fees were generally received in advance, deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement. Network access and connectivity fees were typically billed in advance and recognized in the month that the access/connectivity was provided. F-43 SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS Capitalization of software development costs commenced upon the establishment of technological feasibility of the software product. The Company's software products were deemed to be technologically feasible at the point the Company commenced field testing of the software. The period from field testing to general customer release of the software was brief and the costs incurred during this period were insignificant. Accordingly, the Company did not capitalize any qualifying software development costs. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130"). SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and its components in financial statements. Comprehensive income, as defined, includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. From its inception through January 31, 1999, there were no differences between comprehensive loss and net loss. SEGMENT INFORMATION In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS No. 131"). SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for the way companies report information about operating segments in annual financial statements. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 131, the Company has determined that it had one reportable operating segment at December 31, 1998 and January 31, 1999. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 133 in the year ended December 31, 2000. SFAS No. 133 establishes methods of accounting for derivative financial instruments and hedging activities related to those instruments as well as other hedging activities. The Company's derivative financial instruments include a written put on the Company's common stock and the Convergent warrants (Note 8). F-44 RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain amounts in the 1997 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. (3) DEBT REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT In 1996, the Company entered into a two-year revolving line of credit (the "Revolving Line of Credit") with a bank which allows for borrowings up to $600,000. Interest accrues at a rate equal to the Bank's reference rate plus 1.5% (9.25%, 9.25% and 10% at January 31, 1999, December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively). The Revolving Line of Credit is collateralized by letters of credit issued by the Company and certain stockholders as well as by agreements among certain stockholders (see Note 5). In 1998, the Revolving Line of Credit was extended and all amounts outstanding were due on January 31, 1999. As part of the Purchase Agreement, the Revolving Line of Credit was assumed by Cavion and the maturity date of the loan was extended to December 31, 1999. As part of the 1997 asset sale agreement with Convergent, it was agreed that the Company would be reimbursed for interest expense incurred on the Revolving Line of Credit if certain revenue targets were achieved on the line of business sold. In 1998, Convergent reimbursed the Company for interest expense totaling $30,334 until June 30, 1998, when such reimbursements were discontinued because the revenue targets were not met. NOTES PAYABLE TO STOCKHOLDERS The notes payable to stockholders consist of eight notes totaling $300,000 at January 31, 1999, and December 31, 1998. Two of the notes have an aggregate principal balance of $40,000 and accrue interest at a rate of prime plus 2% (9.75%, 9.75% and 10.5% as of January 31, 1999, December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively). During 1999, 1998 and 1997, the Company continued to accrue interest in accordance with the terms of the notes. The notes are unsecured. Effective May 28, 1998, the Company entered into six note payable agreements (the "Bridge Loans") with certain stockholders and management (the "Lenders"), whereby the Company borrowed $260,000. Interest on the Bridge Loans was payable at the rate of 42% per year. Under the original terms of the Bridge Loans, the principal was payable in monthly installments and the balance, including accrued interest, was due on January 1, 1999. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the maturity was extended to the date on which Cavion obtains 100 credit union customers (the "100 Credit Union Date"). In addition, interest terms were amended such that no interest will accrue after December 31, 1998. The Bridge Loans are unsecured. F-45 As additional consideration for the Bridge Loans, the Lenders were issued 28,648 shares of the Company's nonvoting common stock for $.01 per share. The Lenders had the right to sell these shares back to the Company for a purchase price of $7 per share, during a 60-day period beginning January 1, 1999. As a result of this transaction, $200,536 was recorded as a debt discount and accreted as interest expense in 1998. The common stock was accreted to its redemption value at December 31, 1998. The right to sell shares back to the Company was canceled in conjunction with the Purchase Agreement, in exchange for the stockholders being granted the same rights in 28,648 shares of Cavion's Class B common stock. NOTE PAYABLE On September 14, 1998, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Cavion to borrow up to $300,000, at an interest rate of 16% and a maturity date of March 14, 1999. The note was secured by substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Company (including its technology). On December 29, 1998, Cavion agreed to lend up to an additional $55,000 under the same terms, and advanced $35,000 of this amount. As part of the Purchase Agreement, this loan was forgiven. RELATED PARTY COLLATERALIZED LOANS The Company entered into factoring agreements (the "Agreements") with management and a stockholder of the Company. Accrued interest as of January 31, 1999, December 31, 1998 and 1997, under the Agreements was $27,952, $27,952 and $6,905, respectively, and is included in accrued interest in the accompanying financial statements. Under the terms of the Agreements, interest accrued on the outstanding balances at a rate of 3% for the first 30 days and 1% for each additional 10 days until the outstanding balances were paid in full. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the maturity of these loans was extended to the 100 Credit Union Date. In addition, interest terms were amended such that no interest will accrue after February 1, 1999. (4) CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS The Company entered into various capital lease agreements related to computers and various office equipment. The capital leases have terms ranging from 24 to 36 months with interest rates ranging between 11.4% and 20.3%. F-46 As of December 31, 1998, the present value of future minimum lease payments are as follows:
Year Ending December 31, 1999 $ 39,509 2000 21,513 2001 15,578 ------- 76,600 Less: amounts representing interest (11,405) ------- 65,195 Less: current portion (32,363) ------- Long-term capital lease obligation $ 32,832 =======
The net book value of assets under capital lease obligations as of January 31, 1999 was $65,069. (5) STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT INVESTMENT AGREEMENT In August 1996, the Company entered into an investment agreement (the "Investment Agreement") under which the Company sold 30,000 shares of common stock to an investor group at par value, subject to a put option agreement (the "Put Options"). The investor group provided letters of credit for $600,000 to secure the Company's Revolving Line of Credit. The Put Options were exercisable for a 60-day period beginning August 1, 1999. The original terms of the Put Options provided that they would be canceled if the Company completes a public stock offering and repaid the Revolving Line of Credit. The amounts to be redeemed under the Put Options were being accreted over the period to their exercise date using the straight line method, and has been included in interest expense in the accompanying statements of operations. Contingent upon consummation of the Purchase Agreement with Cavion, the investor group, under a separate agreement, has agreed to cancel the Put Options. The letters of credit provided by the investor group continue to secure the Company's Revolving Line of Credit until it is repaid by Cavion. However, LanXtra is obligated to reimburse the investor group in the event of foreclosure on their collateral. If Cavion defaults on the Revolving Line of Credit, 171,000 shares of the Company's outstanding common stock held by certain members of the Company's investor group are to be forfeited and transferred back to the Company. F-47 WARRANTS The Investment Agreement required that if the Company repaid its Revolving Line of Credit but failed to complete a qualified initial public offering by January 31, 2000, the investor group would be issued warrants to purchase 30,000 shares of common stock. The warrants will have an exercise price equal to the book value per share on December 31, 1999, and are exercisable anytime within three years from the date of issuance. As part of the Purchase Agreement, such warrants were canceled. The Company also issued a stockholder warrants to purchase 7,113 shares of common stock in consideration for services performed in connection with the Investment Agreement. The warrants had an exercise price of $ 7.70 and are exercisable upon the expiration or the exercise of the Put Option. No value was attributed to these warrants as it was unlikely these warrants would be exercised prior to the exercise date. As part of the Purchase Agreement, such warrants were canceled. STOCK OPTIONS In 1997, the Company adopted a stock option plan. Stock options to employees were granted at various exercise prices and vested between one and five years. The following table summarizes stock option activity for the plan:
1998 1997 -------------------------- ----------------------- Weighted Weighted Average Average Exercise Exercise Shares Price Shares Price -------- --------------- ----------- ------------- Outstanding at beginning of year 270,000 $ 7.50 5,000 $0.01 Granted 196,217 4.60 292,105 $6.94 Cancelled (466,217) (5.93) (22,105) $0.01 Exercised - - (5,000) $0.01 ---------- ----- ------- ----- Outstanding at end of year - $ - 270,000 $7.50 =========== ====== ======= ==== Weighted average fair value of options granted during the year $1.79 $1.63 ==== ====
As of December 31, 1998, all outstanding options for common stock were canceled. Under the fair value approach of SFAS 123, the total fair value of options granted under the Plan during 1997 was approximately $478,000. If the Company had accounted for its stock option F-48 plan in accordance with SFAS 123, the Company's net loss and pro forma net loss would have been reported as follows:
1998 1997 ---------- ---------- Net loss: As reported $(1,970,502) $(763,118) ========== ======== Pro forma $(2,321,196) $(819,242) ========== ======== Per share data: As reported $(7.66) $(3.68) ===== ===== Pro forma $(9.02) $(3.95) ===== =====
The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the minimum value method. Assumptions used to calculate the fair value were risk free interest rates of 6.22% to 6.25%, no dividend yields, an expected life of three to five years and volatility of .001%. (6) INCOME TAXES From inception, the Company has generated losses for both financial reporting and tax purposes. At January 31, 1999, December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward for income tax purposes of approximately $1,550,000, $1,328,000 and $530,000, respectively. These would expire beginning in 2011 through 2018, if not utilized. The net loss carryforwards resulted in a deferred tax asset of approximately $613,000, $530,000 and $199,000 at January 31, 1999, December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Due to the uncertainty relating to the realization of the benefit of the net operating loss carryforward, a valuation allowance has been recorded for the full amount. The Company paid no federal or state income taxes in 1998 or 1997. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate applied to the loss from continuing operations for the following reasons:
January 1999 1998 1997 ----------- ----------- ---------- Expected federal benefit $(92,285) $(669,971) $(624,067) Expected state benefit, net of federal (8,957) (65,027) (60,571) Non-deductible accretion 18,650 403,998 229,039 Increase in valuation allowance 82,592 331,000 455,599 --------- --------- ---------- Provision/benefit for income taxes related to loss from continuing operations $ - $ - $ - ======= ======== ========
F-49 No taxes were provided against the gain and results from discontinued operations as no incremental taxes were due. (7) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES LEASES The Company had operating lease agreements relating to office facilities and equipment which expire through 2000. Future minimum lease payments under these agreements were as follows: Year Ended December 31, 1999 $60,049 2000 2,298 ------ $62,347 ====== Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 was approximately $60,621 and $73,000, respectively, and approximately $5,000 for January 1999. Obligations for payments under these leases were assumed by Cavion. LEGAL MATTERS In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to, and may become a party to, litigation arising out of its operations. In management's opinion, none of the matters currently in actual or threatened litigation will have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In connection with the Purchase Agreement transaction, a shareholder of the Company exercised his rights as a dissenting shareholder. If the shareholder is permitted to pursue this claim in a legal proceeding, the Company could be required to pay the shareholder the fair value of his shares immediately before the closing date of the Purchase Agreement. Management believes that the value paid on account of these shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement is greater than the amount which the dissenting shareholder could recover under Colorado law. The dissenting shareholder has asserted, however, that the value of his 50,000 LanXtra shares immediately before the closing date of the Purchase Agreement is approximately $250,000. The ultimate resolution of the matter, which is expected to occur within one year, could result in an obligation to the shareholder. Further, should the Company, or Cavion as successor, be required to make a payment to this shareholder, such payment could result in the Cavion purchase transaction being treated as a taxable transaction which could subject the Company to a significant tax liability. F-50 (8) DISCONTINUED OPERATION On December 3, 1997, the Company sold the network integrator operations (the "Discontinued Operation") of the Company for cash of $475,000. This transaction resulted in a gain of $418,848. The Company also received $30,334 in 1998 from Convergent related to this transaction and has included this amount in other income for 1998. In conjunction with the sale, the Company also issued Convergent 51,464 shares of common stock in exchange for $400,000. The Company also received a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of Convergent's common stock at an exercise price of $7.50 per share. The warrant was exercisable immediately and expires on December 3, 1999. As of January 31, 1999, the Company had not exercised the warrant. No value has been attributed to this warrant in the accompanying financial statements as management believes the value of this warrant is nominal. Convergent is not a publicly traded company, and based on information available to the Company, the exercise price is significantly in excess of the estimated market value of Convergent's common stock. Summarized results of operations financial position and earnings per share data of the discontinued operations were as follows:
For the Year Ended December 31, 1997 ----------------- Results of operations: Revenue $3,723,130 Net income from discontinued operation 653,528 Basic and diluted per share information: Basic and diluted net income from discontinued operation $3.15 ==== Basic and diluted gain on sale of discontinued operation $2.02 ====
(9) CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, AFTER CONSUMMATION OF PURCHASE AGREEMENT (UNAUDITED) The following unaudited balance sheet reflects the Company's balance sheet following the transfer of the Company's assets to and assumption of its liabilities by Cavion which was completed February 1, 1999 (see Note 1). The investment in Cavion stock has been recorded at the net book value of the assets transferred to and liabilities assumed by Cavion. Because the liabilities assumed by Cavion exceeded the value of the assets transferred and the Company F-51 was relieved from its obligations for those transferred liabilities, the investment in Cavion was recorded at zero. As discussed in Note 8, management believes that the fair value of the Convergent warrants was zero.
