COMPANY PERFORMANCE SHARES BOARD OF DIRECTORS RESOLUTION
BULLET ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
UNANIMOUS WRITTEN CONSENT TO ACTION BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS WITHOUT A MEETING
The undersigned, constituting all the members of the board of directors of Bullet Environmental Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Corporation") do hereby adopt the following resolution this May 20, 2002, by written consent;
WHEREAS, the board of directors believes it is in the best interest of the Corporation to ratify that certain Stock Exchange Agreement between the Corporation and ComCam International, Inc. ("ComCam") dated May 8, 2002 whereby the Corporation will acquire all the issued and outstanding shares and warrants of ComCam in exchange for the Corporation's common shares, share purchase warrants and performance shares;
WHEREAS, in anticipation of the closing of the Stock Exchange Agreement, the board of directors is required to reserve 2,250,000 shares of the Corporation's common stock for a period of three (3) years subsequent to the Closing Date of said Stock Exchange Agreement designated as performance shares, to be released to the shareholders of ComCam pro rata in proportion to their respective holdings in ComCam on the basis of three (3) of the Corporation's performance shares for each $1.00 of earnings from operations as determined using the EBITDA calculation in correlation with the completion of audited financial statements for the corresponding annual periods. The Stock Exchange Agreement defines EBITDA as meaning revenues less all operating costs (other than any amount paid to First Capital Invest Corp ("FCIC") pursuant to that certain agreement between ComCam and FCIC dated effective November 2, 2001), but before income tax expense and non-cash expenses, including but not limited to, depreciation, amortization, interest and other extraordinary costs.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the board of directors hereby approves, authorizes and ratifies the Stock Exchange Agreement dated May 8, 2002; and
FURTHER RESOLVED, that the board of directors hereby approves, authorizes and ratifies the reservation of 2,250,000 shares of the Corporation's common stock as performance shares subject to the release criteria determined in that certain Stock Exchange Agreement dated May 8, 2002 between the Corporation and ComCam; and
FURTHER RESOLVED, that the undersigned officers and directors of the Corporation are hereby authorized, empowered and directed in the name and on behalf of the Corporation, to execute and deliver all documents, instruments, schedules, forms and certificates, to make all such payments or perform all such acts and things, and to execute and deliver all such other documents as may be necessary from time to time in order to carry out the purpose and intent of this resolution, that all the acts and doings of any such officers are consistent with the purpose of this resolution, are hereby authorized, approved, ratified and confirmed in all respects. Accordingly, the above resolution is hereby unanimously adopted.

COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Bullet Environmental Technologies, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Bullet Environmental Technologies, Inc. as at February 28, 2002 and 2001 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficiency and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from start of development stage on March 1, 1999 to February 28, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's 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 in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit 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 financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and the significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at February 28, 2002 and 2001 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from start of development stage on March 1, 1999 to February 28, 2002 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company is dependent upon financing to continue operations and has suffered recurring losses from operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regards to these matters are discussed in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Expressed in United States Dollars)
FEBRUARY 28, 2002
1. HISTORY AND ORGANIZATION OF THE COMPANY
Bullet Environmental Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on December 18, 1997. The Company was considered to be in the exploration stage until February 28, 1999 at which time it ceased its mineral exploration activities. The Company is seeking business opportunities in the hi-tech industry and as of March 1, 1999 is considered to be a development stage company as the Company has not generated revenues from its operations.
2. GOING CONCERN
These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America with the on-going assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. However, certain conditions noted below currently exist which raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The operations of the Company have primarily been funded by notes payable and the issuance of capital stock. Continued operations of the Company are dependent on the Company's ability to complete additional public equity financings or generate profitable operations in the future. Management's plan in this regard is to secure additional funds through future equity financings. Such financings may not be available or may not be available on reasonable terms.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The significant accounting policies adopted by the Company are as follows:
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure 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.

FEBRUARY 28, 2002
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd...)
Foreign currency translation
The Company has determined that the functional currency of its operations is the local currency, the Canadian dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the year-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates such items are recognized in the statements of operations. Related exchange gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income as a separate component of stockholders' deficiency. Exchange gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the statements of operations.
Income taxes
A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax expenses (benefit) result from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Loss per share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share takes into consideration shares of common stock outstanding (computed under basic loss per share) and potentially dilutive shares of common stock. Diluted loss per share is not presented separately from loss per share as the exercise of any options would be anti-dilutive.
Stock-based compensation
The Company has elected to follow the intrinsic value approach of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"), and related interpretations, in accounting for its employee stock options rather than the alternative fair value accounting allowed by Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"). APB 25 provides that the compensation expense relative to the Company's employee stock options is measured based on the intrinsic value of the stock option. SFAS 123 permits companies to continue to follow APB 25 and provide pro-forma disclosure of the impact of applying the fair value method of SFAS 123.
The Company also adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation" ("FIN 44"), with respect to certain provisions applicable to new awards, options repricings, and changes in grantee status. FIN 44 addresses practice issues related to the application of APB 25.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont'd...)
Stock-based compensation (cont'd...)
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods and Services" ("EITF 96-18").
New accounting pronouncements
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") approved the issuance of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141") and Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting making the use of the pooling-of-interest method prohibited. This statement also establishes criteria for separate recognition of intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination. SFAS 141 is effective for business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 requires that goodwill no longer be amortized to earnings, but instead be reviewed for impairment. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and is required to be applied at the beginning of an entity's fiscal year and to be applied to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized in its financial statements at that date. Impairment losses for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets that arise due to the initial application of this statement (resulting from a transitional impairment test) are to be reported as resulting from a change in accounting principle. Under an exception to the date at which this statement becomes effective, goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001, will be subject immediately to the non-amortization and amortization provisions of this statement.
In July 2001, FASB issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS 143") that records the fair value of the liability for closure and removal costs associated with the legal obligations upon retirement or removal of any tangible long-lived assets. The initial recognition of the liability will be capitalized as part of the asset cost and depreciated over its estimated useful life. SFAS 143 is required to be adopted effective January 1, 2003.
In October 2001, FASB issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment on Disposal of Long-lived Assets" ("SFAS 144"), which supersedes Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of". SFAS 144 requires that long-lived assets that are to be disposed of by sale be measured at the lower of book value or fair value less cost to sell. Additionally, SFAS 144 expands the scope of discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with operations that (1) can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and (2) will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction. SFAS 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and, generally, its provisions are to be applied prospectively.
The adoption of these new pronouncements is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

4. PROPOSED ACQUISITION
During the current year, the Company entered into an agreement, as amended on May 8, 2002, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares and warrants of Comcam International, Inc. ("Comcam") in exchange for (i) the issuance of 2,285,969 shares of common stock of the Company, (ii) the right to purchase 551,250 shares of common stock of the Company at a price of $1.50 per share, and (iii) the reservation of 2,250,000 shares of common stock of the Company to be issued on the basis of one share for each $1 of earnings from operations as defined in the agreement.
In anticipation of this transaction, the Company advanced $75,000 to Comcam. The advances receivable are unsecured, non-interest bearing and with no fixed terms of repayment. If the proposed acquisition does not proceed, the advances will bear interest at 8% per annum from the date of termination. Subsequent to February 28, 2002, the Company advanced an additional $75,000 to Comcam.

During the current year, the Company issued 395,000 shares of common stock with an agreed value of $177,750 for the settlement of notes payable of $150,375, resulting in a loss on settlement of $27,375.
6. CAPITAL STOCK
Effective March 15, 1999, the Company implemented a 50:1 reverse stock split where each issued and outstanding share of the Company's common stock was converted to 0.02 shares of the Company's common stock. Fractional shares totalling 53 shares of common stock were returned to treasury for cancellation in conjunction with the reverse stock split. Stockholders' deficiency has been restated to give retroactive recognition of the reverse stock split for all periods presented by reclassifying from common shares to additional paid-in capital the par value of converted shares arising from the split. In addition, all references to number of shares and per share amounts of common shares have been restated to reflect the reverse stock split.
In March 1999, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock for cash proceeds of $100,000.
In February 2000, the Company issued 700,000 shares of common stock for cash proceeds of $350,000.
In December 2000, the Company issued 120,000 shares of common stock at an agreed value of $60,000 for the settlement of accounts payable totalling $60,000.

IP ASETS:
PHYSICAL PROTECTION OF ASSETS
All IP assets with the exception of lab books, engineer's notes and some vendor specifications are housed in electronic form on one of 5 interval servers and one external server from ComCam headquarters' facility.
COPYRIGHTS, TRADEMARKS, SERVICE MARKS AND PATENTS
Software is protected by copyrights, and in some cases under NDA with third party for special case use. The company does not certainly have any active patents or Service marks. The company has filled for Trademarks protection for ComCam related names and logos. The company has not had the financial capability to pursue these additional protection areas.ASSET GROUPS
The group of IP assets can be broken down into two parts, hardware and software:
HARDWARE DEVELOPMENT
Schematics, lab books of experimentation and documentation for system and subsystem designs. Designs are maintained on industry standard schematic capture and Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layout tools.
The current IDNC line of cameras and servers product are on two 10-layer PC boards with a third subsystem PCB we refer to as the Front End Processor (FEP). The FEP allows ComCam to finish the product as either:
A fixed lens network camera - IDNC-10 FL.
A Professional Lens network camera - IDNC-10 PL.
A multi video input micro-server - IDNC-10 BNC
Custom FEPs for specialty clients - Infrared, Intra-oral
We have started both in-house and third party development for the next
generation of FEPs that will encompass different imager technology and optic
compression technologies not for discussion in this document.
Finally, we have development boards, which we also sell for use in prototyping
external to the IDNC-xx line.
SOFTWARE
Software assets can be grouped in three main areas.
CamNos is the company's field programmable proprietary embedded real-time
multitasking operating system in the camera and micro server, line IDNC-xx
series. We use both industry standard and in-house developed software
creation tools and in-system and remote test diagnostics.
The "viewing experience" either as a web based browser plug-ins or high
performance feature rich PC application which we call "C3" for ComCam
Control Center.
We also have developed applications that reside on Internet servers of either
Linux or Windows 2000. These Internet server applications further enhance the
product line for customer retention by remot storage, retreival, trans-coding of
video to standard video formats, remote alarming, redirection and rebroadcasting
to cell phone, email, fax, etc.
60
IP COMMERCIAL USE:
In terms of CamNos we do not share source code with developers but could license modules or sub-modules to third parties in the future. Upgrades and improved features are ongoing processes in terms of distributed processing techniques, device drivers, enhanced algorithms processed within the IDNC-xx device. Next generation ASIC / semi-custom chips will leverage this core technology.
In terms of the "viewing experience," we provide browser plug-ins for general use by the public. In addition, we provide PC applications, software tools, SDKs and limited source code for localization and custom application purposes.
In terms of the Internet server, we are constantly upgrading and scaling remot storage functions. In some markets we can achieve subscription based business revenues via this solution with our devices and viewers. In foreign market we believe we can "sell seats" for country agents to achieve the same.
All IP areas have value to us to protect, enhance and offer commercially. We utilitze a comprehensive tracking system for source code check in and archive on a weekly basis. The physical media is removed from the premises for primarily fire protection reasons.
