The Company will buy back up to ten million (10,000,000) of its outstanding shares.

We will be able to better manage the base group and improve communication with our stockholders by buying back these shares. We also feel that with the imminent Company name change to TotalAxcess.com, Inc., this would be an ideal time to consolidate our investor base.''
