Please
revise to discuss very briefly in definite and concrete terms the key
aspects of your proposed business. For example, describe in concrete
detail what you mean by “consulting and support services,” worldwide
distribution networks” and to what “telecommunications companies” and
“telecommunications products” you are referring. Also very briefly state
the status of development and negotiations for the main categories of
products or services that you intend to provide. For example, clearly
state the status of negotiations with any telecommunications companies or
distributors. |
2. |
Also
please revise to clarify that you have only two employees, your Chief
Executive Officer and your Vice-President-Operations, and that they plan
to devote ten hours per week, on average, to your
business. |
3. |
Clearly
and briefly disclose the status of your plans to raise the additional $2.5
million you need to operate for your first
year. |
4. |
Please
revise your discussion of the Offering Price to state the $0.05 price you
disclose elsewhere and to clarify that there is no market for your
securities and none may develop. |
7. |
The
disclosure in the registration statement does not reflect any shares sold
to Mr. Sarine or Mr. Summerlin for compensatory purposes. Therefore,
please advise in your response letter what outstanding shares will be
registered for resale on Form S-8. |
8. |
We
note your statement that, “if required, we will distribute a supplement to
this prospectus to describe any material changes in the terms of the
offering.” Please confirm to us in your response letter that you will file
a post-effective amendment, not a prospectus supplement, to include any
additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.
See Item 512(a)(1)(iii) of Regulation
S-B. |
9. |
We
note your statement that “we have conducted no operations except for
formulating a business plan.” Please revise the beginning of your Business
discussion to clearly state the extent to which you will not know whether
there is a market for your services until you raise an additional $2.5
million and conduct a market study. Clarify how much you plan to spend on
the market study and who will conduct it. Confirm in your response letter
that the person conducting the study is not affiliated with either of your
two officers. Also clearly state here that you have no experience in the
business of establishing worldwide networks of
distributors. |
10. |
Please
generally revise your Business discussion, from page 17 through 21, to
clarify for what specific telecommunication products you intend to provide
sales channel and consulting support services and specifically how you
plan to generate revenues. Clarify the stage of any material negotiations
and clarify whether you have binding written agreements. Your current
disclosure is too vague. For example, please replace the following
statements with concrete everyday language that clearly explains how you
plan to operate your business: |
· |
“To
date, we have engaged in no material business operations. Our business
models is based on outsourcing.” Page 17. Please provide more concrete
detail. |
· |
“We
have not yet performed any sophisticated market studies to validate the
potential market for our services.” Page 17. Please provide more concrete
detail describing the market studies on which you have relied and what
your services will be. |
· |
“We
intend to pre-negotiate distribution terms and conditions.” Page 20.
Please revise to clarify. |
· |
“Other
sources of revenue will include services such as international public
relations, cultural training, product positioning and extra marketing
services for which we will charge modest fees.” Page 20. Please revise to
clarify with concrete details. |
11. |
We
note, on page 18, the list of reasons you believe you will be successful
in helping small telecommunications companies overcome cost inefficiencies
and lack of experience in building international distribution networks.
Please revise to balance this discussion by disclosing the extent to which
you, as a small telecommunications company with no experience providing
these services, will have to overcome these obstacles. In addition, advise
in your response letter the basis for your statement that “companies often
have initial disappointments with international
distributors.” |
12. |
We
note your statement on page 26 that “If we do not raise all of the money
we need from this offering, we will have to find alternative sources, like
a second public offering, a private placement of securities, or loans.”
Please revise to clarify, since you state elsewhere that you will receive
no proceeds from this offering. Also please revise to clarify the
statement that “We have not made any arrangements to raise additional
cash.” This is confusing because you also state “We are seeking equity
financing to provide for the capital
required.” |
13. |
Please
revise to provide more detail regarding the business conducted by Skye
Source, LLC. For example, to what types of products and manufacturers are
you referring? |
14. |
Please
state whether each officer is working full-time or part-time for the
company. If an officer is not working full time for the company, please
provide the number of hours the officer will spend per week working for
the company. If the officer is currently employed with other companies,
please state whether the person is full-time or part-time with those other
companies. |
15. |
We
note your statement that the board of directors “will determine
appropriate compensation levels” for Mr. Sarine and Mr. Summerlin. Please
revise to clarify this statement, in view of your disclosure on pages 22,
25 and 26 that you plan to pay them each at the rate of $240,000 per year
if you raise funds as planned. Also state, as you do on page 6, that Mr.
Sarine and Mr. Summerlin each expect to devote approximately ten hours per
week, on average, to your business. Furthermore, clarify that the board is
comprised solely on Mr. Sarine and Mr. Summerlin, so both will be deciding
the appropriate levels of their own
compensation. |
16. |
Revise
your statements of stockholders’ equity to disclose the date of each
issuance of stock, as required by paragraph 11(d)(1) of SFAS
7. |
17. |
Please
attach material agreements with shareholders as exhibits, including
registration rights agreements and securities purchase agreements related
to your sales to the selling
shareholders. |
