An amending agreement was signed on Sept. 18, 2000,  to  amend  the  investment  agreement  and  other  related agreements.  The  amendments  primarily relate to the obligations of Oyster Ventures  Limited  and  e-billing  Company,  Inc.  in   relation   to   the organization  and  financing  of  eBillings, Inc. The company's obligations under the investment agreement, which are subject to  necessary  regulatory and shareholder approvals, remain substantively the same. The company has been advised by eBillings, Inc. that a letter of intent  to provide  billing  and  payment services to an emerging call centre operator (ServeLink) has been signed and  the  terms  of  such  services  are  being negotiated.  ServeLink,  a member of the Oyster Group, is currently under a takeover offer  from  NuGold  Hill  Mines  Limited,  an  Australian  listed company. Under the sponsorship agreement with Golden  Capital  Securities  Ltd.,  in connection  with  the  company's  proposed  acquisition  of  a  50-per-cent interest in eBillings, Inc., the company has agreed to issue Golden Capital 50,000  units  at  a  deemed  value  of 60 cents per unit and to pay Golden Capital $10,000 in connection with Golden Capital's corporate finance  fee. Each  unit  consists  of one common share of the company and one warrant to purchase one common share at 60 cents per share for a  one-year  term.  The issuance of the units to Golden Capital is subject to regulatory approval. The company is continuing to  work  diligently  on  finalizing  transaction documents that are required in order to obtain resumption of trading of its shares. Resignation of director Effective  July  17,  2000,  Jon  Swire-Thompson,  chairman  and  director, resigned  his position on the board of directors. Given the company's entry into the IT sector, Mr. Swire-Thompson elected to step aside  in  order  to provide  the company with the opportunity to identify a new board member(s) with  the  expertise  necessary  to  assist  in  advancing  the   company's technology  arm.  Mr. Swire-Thompson played a crucial role in the company's evolving success in Zimbabwe and will remain accessible to the company on a consulting  basis  as  the  Zimbabwe  mining  claims develop. The board has expressed  deep  gratitude  to  Mr.  Swire-Thompson  for   his   invaluable contribution  to  the  company  and  wish  him  every success in his future endeavours.
