ljm/153097.1

(b) A Management company owned by a Director of the Company provides services
which include, among other things, all aspects of corporate governance, financial
reporting and administrative management of the Company in the Canadian
jurisdiction that it resides in. The Company pays an annual fee of $36,000 CDN
for this service.
PARTICULARS OF OTHER MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON
Private Placements
Whenever a private placement is contemplated which will result in issuance of 20% or
more of the total issued shares of the Company, the Canadian Venture Exchange requires
shareholder approval before the private placement can be completed as the issuance may result in
a change of control. The Directors contemplate that during this current year, there may be a
private placement negotiated which will result in 20% or more of the issued shares of the
Company. No such private placement is currently being negotiated. The Directors are
requesting the authority of the members to negotiate and complete such a private placement and
the resulting change of control.
Approval for Change of Business
The Company has been inactive for some time. In February, 2000, the Compan y entered
into a Business Combination Agreement with WireMerchant.com, Inc, to complete a business
combination with WiredMerchant.com, Inc on the basis of one Company share for one
WiredMerchant.com, Inc share. On November 16, 2000, the Company terminated the Business
Combination Agreement. The Company must actively consider businesses to acquire in order to
preserve its listing status on the CDNX. The Company does have sufficient funds with which to
consider investments or acquisitions, although additional funds may be required in order to
complete any particular transaction. The Company has no particular transaction in mind as at the
date of this information circular.
The Company has determined that its best opportunity is to take advantage of the
experience of its directors in investing in other operating companies, either private or public.
The ability to invest in other companies can be lucrative for an investment company withoutഊ- 7 -D/
ljm/153097.1
some of the operational risks and expenses that operating companies have. Based on current
management’s experience, the operating company targets are likely to be publicly traded
companies or companies that intend on making a public offering so that the investment of the
Company in those operating companies can be liquid. However, the main criteria that the
Company will consider will be acquisitions where the value for Company’s shareholders has an
opportunity for significant appreciation, in whatever industry sector that opportunity is afforded.
In addition, the Compan y’s directors have contacts and experience in the resource
industry including oil and gas and mining. The directors of the Company may determine that it is
the Company’s best interests to acquire interests in resource properties and either develop or
operate the properties itself, or merely acquire working interests and have others operate the
properties.
A change of business of a CDNX listed issuer requires CDNX approval, which in turn
requires shareholder approval. The Company therefore seeks shareholder approval to change the
business of the Company to become an investment company whereby it acquires interests in
operating companies, either public or private, in any industry or sector as is determined by the
directors, each acquisition being on terms determined by the directors and approved by the
regulatory authorities. This is the preferred change of business of the directors.
There is some chance that the Company will not get regulatory approval to become an
investment company. Therefore, the Company also seeks approval of the shareholders to change
the business of the Company to become a resource company, either through resource
development, operations or holdings. Acquisitions of resource properties will be made on terms
as determined by the directors and approved by the regulatory authorities.
The management of the Company is not aware of any other matter to come before the
Meeting other than as set forth in the Notice of the Meeting. If any other matter properly comes
before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed form of Proxy to vote
the shares represented thereby in accordance with their best judgment on such matter.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
JUNE 30, 2000
1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
The Company was incorporated on June 1, 1993 under the Corporate Law in The Netherlands.
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles
with the assumption that the company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of
business rather than through a process of forced liquidation. The Company has incurred substantial operating losses to
date and has an accumulated deficit of $5,505,706. Continued operations of the Company are dependent on the
Company's ability to both develop or acquire a viable business and to receive continued financial support, complete
public equity financing or generate profitable operations in the future. There can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to make such arrangements, or that the terms of any arrangements it is able to make will be favourable to the
Company. These financial statements do not reflect adjustments in the carrying values of the assets and liabilities, the
reported revenues and expenses, and the balance sheet classifications used, that would be necessary if the Company is
unable to continue as a going concern.
On February 23, 2000, the Company signed a letter of intent with WiredMerchant.com Inc. ("WiredMerchant") to enter
into a business combination. Subsequent to year end (Note 7), the Company and WiredMerchant signed a lock-up and
merger agreement, whereby WiredMerchant has agreed to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of the
Company by an exchange of shares on a one for one basis. This agreement is subject to regulatory and shareholder
approval. Pursuant to the letter agreement, the Company advanced $750,000 to WiredMerchant. In the event that the
Offer is not completed: (a) by reason of a material misrepresentation or failure to disclose a material fact by Luxmatic to
WiredMerchant, Luxmatic will pay to WiredMerchant a non-completion fee of $250,000; (b) by reason that CDNX does
not approve of the terms of the Offer and the listing of the resulting issuer on CDNX, Luxmatic will pay to
WiredMerchant its reasonable expenses, including legal and accounting fees, in undertaking the Offer, not to exceed
$250,000; and (c) by reason of fewer than ninety (90) percent of Luxmatic Shares being tendered pursuant to the Offer,
Luxmatic will pay to WiredMerchant a non-completion fee of $250,000.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and equivalents
Cash and equivalents include highly liquid market investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that 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 amount of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign exchange
Assets and liabilities have been translated at the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Capital stock has
been translated at the rate prevailing at the time of the capital issue. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average
rate for the relevant period.
Loss per share
Loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year.
Comparative figuresഊCertain comparative figures have been adjusted to conform with the current year's presentation.ഊLUXMATIC TECHNOLOGIES N.V.
