To the Board of Directors
Xxxxx Corporation II
Scottsbluff, Nebraska
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Xxxxx Corporation II as of

retained earnings, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financials statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Xxxxx Corporation II as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and cash flows for
the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of the Business - Xxxxx Corporation II (Company) is a Nebraska
corporation operating for profit in western Nebraska and Eastern Wyoming. The
Company's primary sources of revenue are the sales and rental of communication
pagers and the monthly service charges for the equipment. In the course of its
business, the Company extends credit to its customers for the purchase and
rental of paging equipment and the provision of service thereon. During 1996,
the Company acquired 100% interest in a partnership investment. This acquisition
enabled the Company to have all the rights granted in the FCC Franchise License
issued for Basic Trading Area (BTA) 411, which covers much of Western Nebraska
and a portion of Eastern Wyoming. This license permits the operation of Personal
Communications Systems (PCS) in this designated area.
Basis of Accounting - The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting. Under
the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when they are earned,
and expenses are recognized when they are incurred.
Use of 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
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivables - The Company uses the direct charge off method for
doubtful receivables. When management determines an account to be uncollectible,
it is written off to bad debt expense.
Investments in Other Organizations - The investment in the Wireless
Communications Co. is stated at cost increased or decreased for the amount of
income or loss reflected on the income tax return attributable to the Company.
Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation - Property, plant and equipment
are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for major
betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations
in the year incurred. Gain or loss on sale, retirement or other disposition of
property, plant and equipment is credited or charged to operations in the year
sustained.
Depreciation is provided on an accelerated basis in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles over the estimated useful lives of the respective
assets using the following lives:
Buildings and improvements 5 - 31.5 years
Office equipment 5 - 7 years
Communications equipment 5 - 7 years
Vehicles 5 years
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Intangible Assets - Intangible assets subject to amortization include patents
and franchise rights. These assets are amortized on a straight-line basis using
the following economic lives:

Patent 15 Years $ 15,059
Covenants not to Compete
FCC Franchise License 10 Years 843,356

Research and Development Costs - Company sponsored research and development
expenses related to present and future products are expensed as incurred.
Research and development costs determined in accordance with FASB Statement No.
2, "Accounting for Research and Development Costs", were $84,000 and $8,000 for
the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Income Taxes and Deferred Taxes - The Company has elected to be taxed for
federal and state purposes as a Subchapter S Corporation. This election
transfers the income tax liability to the stockholders of the corporation.
There are no taxes for the Company in 1996 or 1995.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the
Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents.
NOTE 2 - CONCENTRATION OF RISK
The Company through a partnership investment and subsequent acquisition of the
entire interest, was the successful bidder for an FCC Franchise License for
Wireless Communications. In order for this franchise license to be profitable, a
substantial sum of capital will be required before any return on investment is
realized. Start up costs will be substantial before any revenue is received.
Management has estimated the time frame for realization of revenue to be up to
two years from the acquisition of the franchise license.
The Company has applications pending for patents which operate in conjunction
with various types of digital communications systems and system technologies.
The number of patent claims which will ultimately be granted is not known and it
is not possible to place a value on the patent applications. The patens deal
with systems and technologies that reduce the overall cost of consolidating and
delivering data, including such things as electrical and gas meter information,
security services, and vending replenishment information. The technology will be
first deployed on the Company's Personal Communications Systems in Basic Trading
Area 411. Upon successful deployment, the Company will license the use of the
technology and equipment to other digital communications providers thoughout the
world.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Xxxxx Corporation II as of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related statements of income and changes in
retained earnings, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financials statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Xxxxx Corporation II as of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of its operations and cash flows for
the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of the Business - Xxxxx Corporation II (Company) is a Nebraska
corporation operating for profit in Western Nebraska and Eastern Wyoming. The
Company's primary sources of revenue are the sales and rental of communication
pagers and the monthly service charges for the equipment. In the course of its
business, the Company extends credit to its customers for the purchase and
rental of paging equipment and the provision of service thereon. During 1996,
the Company acquired 100% interest in a partnership investment. This acquisition
enabled the Company to have all the rights granted in the FCC Franchise License
issued for Basic Trading Area (BTA) 411, which covers much of Western Nebraska
and a portion of Eastern Wyoming. This license permits the operation of Personal
Communications Systems (PCS) in this designated area.
Basis of Accounting - The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting. Under
the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when they are earned,
and expenses are recognized when they are incurred.
Use of 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
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivables - The Company uses the direct charge off method for
doubtful receivables. When management determines an account to be uncollectible,
it is written off to bad debt expense.
Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation - Property, plant and equipment
are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for major
betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations
in the year incurred. Gain or loss on sale, retirement or other disposition of
property, plant and equipment is credited or charged to operations in the year
sustained.
Depreciation is provided on an accelerated basis in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles over the estimated useful lives of the respective
assets using the following lives:
Buildings and improvements 5 - 31.5 years
Office equipment 5 - 7 years
Communications equipment 5 - 7 years
Vehicles 5 years
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Research and Development Costs - Company sponsored research and development
expenses related to present and future products are expensed as incurred.
Research and development costs determined in accordance with FASB Statement No.
2, "Accounting for Research and Development Costs", were $91,256 and $84,000 for
the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Income Taxes and Deferred Taxes - The Company has elected to be taxed for
federal and state purposes as a Subchapter S Corporation. This election
transfers the income tax liability to the stockholders of the corporation.
There are no taxes for the Company in 1997 or 1996.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the
Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents.
NOTE 2 - CONCENTRATION OF RISK
The Company through a partnership investment and subsequent acquisition of the
entire interest, was the successful bidder for an FCC Franchise License for
Wireless Communications. In order for this franchise license to be profitable, a
substantial sum of capital will be required before any return on investment is
realized. Start up costs will be substantial before any revenue is received.
Management has estimated the time frame for realization of revenue to be up to
two years from the acquisition of the franchise license.
The Company has applications pending for patents which operate in conjunction
with various types of digital communications systems and system technologies.
The number of patent claims which will ultimately be granted is not known and it
is not possible to place a value on the patent applications. The patens deal
with systems and technologies that reduce the overall cost of consolidating and
delivering data, including such things as electrical and gas meter information,
security services, and vending replenishment information. The technology will be
first deployed on the Company's Personal Communications Systems in Basic Trading
Area 411. Upon successful deployment, the Company will license the use of the
technology and equipment to other digital communications providers thoughout the
world.

Form of Shareholder Investment Letter
[Shareholder]
[Shareholder's Address]
Arnox Corporation
0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx
Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx 00000
Re: Issuance of Arnox Corporation common shares
Gentlemen:
Under that certain Reorganization Agreement dated March 22, 1999, between and
among Arnox Corporation ("Arnox"), Xxxxx Corporation II, ("Xxxxx XX"), and
Telemetrix Resource Group, Inc. ("TRG"), Arnox, Xxxxx XX, and TRG will undergo a
reorganization ("Reorganization"). Concurrently with the Reorganization,
__________________common shares (the "Common Stock" or "Common Shares") in the
post-reorganization entity (the "Company") will be issued to the undersigned
investor ("Investor").
This letter shall confirm that Investor is acquiring the Common Shares solely
for Investor's own account, and, at the time of the acquisition, no other person
will have a direct or indirect beneficial interest in Investor's Common Shares.
Investor is acquiring the Common Shares for investment purposes only, with no
intention of distributing, reselling, assigning or otherwise transferring the
Common Shares. Investor is not a Distributor, Dealer or any person acting on
behalf of the foregoing, and has not made any pre-arrangement, arrangements or
entered into any agreement for the resale or distribution of Company securities.
Investor understands that the Common Stock has not been registered under the
U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or under any U.S.
state securities law ("Blue Sky Laws"). The Common Stock will be "restricted
securities" (as defined in SEC Rule 144) and therefore may not be resold or
otherwise transferred except pursuant to the registration provisions of the
Securities Act and Blue Sky Laws or pursuant to an exemption from such
registration provisions. Investor is not acquiring the Common Shares as part of
a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of the Securities Act or
any Blue Sky Laws.
Investor has sufficient knowledge and expertise in financial and business
matters to evaluate the merits and risks of the proposed exchange of Xxxxx II's
and TRG's securities, as applicable, for the Common Shares. The Common Shares
are the type of securities that Investor wishes to hold for investment and the
nature and amount of the Common Shares are consistent with Investor's investment
program.
Investor is able to bear the economic risks of the investment in the Common
Shares. Investor has adequate means of providing for Investor's current needs
and contingencies, Investor has no present need for liquidity in the Common
Shares, and Investor can afford to hold the Common Shares for an indefinite
period. Investor is able to protect Investor's own interests in an investment of
this nature, Investor can afford a complete loss of an investment in the Common
Shares, and Investor is willing to accept such investment risks.
Investor acknowledges that investing in the Common Shares is a speculative and
uncertain undertaking. Investor is familiar with the risks involved in such
investment and has considered such risks in making its decision to acquire the
Common Shares.
Investor understands that no U.S. federal or state agency has made any finding
or determination about the fairness of the proposed investment nor has
recommended or endorsed the Common Shares.
Investor was not solicited to acquire the Common Shares through any leaflet,
public promotional meeting, circular, newspaper article, magazine article, radio
advertisement, television commercial or any other form of general advertising.
Investor had access to all available material and relevant information
concerning the Company and its subsidiaries, its management, its current and
proposed business and other details of the investment sufficient for Investor to
make an informed investment decision whether to acquire the Common Shares.
Investor had an opportunity to ask questions about the Company and the Common
Shares and those questions were answered to Investor's satisfaction. All
information requested by Investor was furnished except for information that was
unavailable or would require unreasonable effort or expense.
Investor carefully reviewed all available material and relevant information
concerning the Company and the Common Shares, evaluated the reasonableness of
all assumptions and projections, conducted due diligence by investigating the
facts and circumstances, and therefore, is familiar with the business and
financial condition of the Company. Investor has not relied on the Company to
evaluate or make the investment decision to acquire the Common Shares. Investor
relied solely on its own tax, legal, and investment advisors concerning the
income tax and investment considerations of ownership of the Units.
Very truly yours,
By: Investor
