With these registration statements officially effective, Anything Internet will now be required to file period reports with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is now fully compliant with all of the SEC's filing requirements and new disclosure requirements for publicly traded companies as mandated by the SEC on January 4, 1999.

J. Scott Sitra, Anything Internet's President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "This is a very exciting time for our rapidly growing company. We have worked long and hard to achieve these milestones and appreciate the loyal support our shareholders have demonstrated over the past few months. Also, as far as we know, we are one of the first, if not the first, company to comply with the SEC's new registration and disclosure requirements for new issues.
"Becoming a publicly traded company has been a critical aspect to our long-term vision of becoming an e-commerce conglomerate... this is merely the first of many steps to come. Being a public company lends tremendous credibility to our expansion efforts, particularly with the various acquisition and joint-venture negotiations we have recently been pursuing. We look forward to sharing our continued growth and success with our shareholders as we expand into new and untapped areas of e-commerce," added Mr. Sitra.
