RISK
FACTORS
An
investment in our common stock involves a number of very significant risks. You
should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to
other information in this prospectus in evaluating us and our business before
purchasing shares of our common stock. Our business, operating results and
financial condition could be seriously harmed due to any of the following risks.
The risks described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not
presently known to us may also impair our business operations. You could lose
all or part of your investment due to any of these risks.
Transaction
Risks
SALES OF
A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK INTO THE PUBLIC MARKET BY THE
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS MAY RESULT IN A SIGNIFICANT DOWNWARD PRESSURE ON THE PRICE
OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND COULD AFFECT THE ABILITY OF OUR STOCKHOLDERS TO REALIZE
THE CURRENT TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
Sales of
a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could
cause a reduction in the market price of our common stock. We had 127,001,244
shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of May 20, 2005. When this
registration statement is declared effective, the selling stockholders may be
reselling up to 123,242,702 shares of our common stock. As a result, a
substantial number of our shares of common stock may be issued and may be
available for immediate resale which could have an adverse effect on the price
of our common stock as the increased supply may outstrip demand for our stock.
To the extent selling stockholders sell large amounts of their shares of common
stock registered under this registration statement, the price of our common
stock may decrease due to the additional shares of common stock in the
market.
Risks
Related To Our Business
WE HAVE A
HISTORY OF OPERATING LOSSES AND FLUCTUATING OPERATING RESULTS.
From
inception through March 31, 2005, we have incurred aggregate losses of
$(13,536,417). Our loss from operations for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2004 was $(5,849,366) and for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was $(705,745).
There is no assurance that we will operate profitably or will generate positive
cash flow in the future. In addition, our operating results in the future may be
subject to significant fluctuations due to many factors not within our control,
such as the unpredictability of when customers will order products, the size of
customers' orders, the demand for our products, and the level of competition and
general economic conditions.
Even if
our revenues increase, we expect an increase in development costs and operating
costs. Consequently, we expect to incur operating losses and negative cash flow
until our products gain market acceptance sufficient to generate a commercially
viable and sustainable level of sales, and/or additional products are developed
and commercially released and sales of such products made so that we are
operating in a profitable manner. We cannot assure you of when or if our
operations will become profitable or if we will be able to continue as a going
concern.
WE MAY
EXPERIENCE SIGNIFICANT AND RAPID GROWTH IF WE ARE ABLE TO CAPITALIZE ON THE
EXPANSION OF THE AXP 1000. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO HIRE AND TRAIN STAFF TO HANDLE
SALES AND MARKETING OF OUR PRODUCTS AND MANAGE OUR OPERATIONS, SUCH GROWTH COULD
MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECT US.
We intend
to proceed with initiatives intended to capitalize on the expansion of the
federal and state anti-idling legislation for long haul trucks and federal
legislation mandating increased driver rest periods per hours driven. This could
potentially lead to significant and rapid growth in the scope and complexity of
our AXP 1000 and other generator business. Any inability on our part to manage
such growth effectively will have a material adverse effect on our product
development, business, financial condition and results of operations. Our
ability to manage and sustain growth effectively will depend, in part, on the
ability of our management to implement appropriate management, operational and
financial systems and controls, and the ability of our management to
successfully hire, train, motivate and manage employees. Effective growth
management will also depend on our ability to solidify our supply chain and to
secure and maintain quality control with respect to installation facilities for
our products.
RAPID
TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES IN OUR INDUSTRY COULD RENDER OUR PRODUCTS NON-COMPETITIVE
OR OBSOLETE AND CONSEQUENTLY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO GENERATE
REVENUES.
The
markets in which we operate are characterized by rapid technological change,
frequent new product and service introductions, evolving industry standards and
changes in customer demands. The introduction of products embodying new
technologies and the emergence of new industry standards can, in a relatively
short period of time, render existing products obsolete and unmarketable,
including ours. We believe that our success will depend upon our ability to
continuously develop new products and to enhance our current products and
introduce them promptly into the market. If we are not able to develop and
introduce new products, our business, financial condition and results of
operations could be adversely affected.
WE DO NOT
CARRY COMPREHENSIVE PRODUCT LIABILITY INSURANCE PROVIDING COVERAGE IN ALL
INSTANCES, AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT OUR CURRENT INSURANCE COVERAGE
WOULD BE ADEQUATE IN TERM AND SCOPE TO PROTECT US AGAINST MATERIAL FINANCIAL
EFFECTS IN THE EVENT OF A SUCCESSFUL CLAIM.
We could
be subject to claims in connection with the products that we sell. There can be
no assurance that we would have sufficient resources to satisfy any liability
resulting from any such claim, or that we would be able to have our customers
indemnify or insure us against any such liability. There can be no assurance
that our insurance coverage would be adequate in term and scope to protect us
against material financial effects in the event of a successful claim. We
currently do not carry commercial general liability insurance providing
comprehensive product liability coverage in all instances. We may in the future
obtain such insurance, provided it can be obtained at reasonable prices;
however, there can be no assurance that such coverage, if obtained, would be
adequate in term and scope to protect us.
WE ARE A
START-UP COMPANY WITH LIMITED EXPERIENCE AND ARE SUBJECT TO ALL OF THE RISKS
INHERENT IN A START-UP COMPANY, INCLUDING DEPENDENCE ON KEY
PERSONNEL.
We are
dependent upon obtaining future financing to fund operations for the next twelve
months, which may not be available, due to our recent acquisition and resulting
expanded business opportunities. We have not earned significant revenue since
inception and have incurred losses since beginning operations. Further, our
business activities may not result in any operational revenues or profits in the
future. Therefore, you should be aware that your entire investment is at risk.
Our business model is unproven and may not be adaptable to a changing market,
which may reduce its ability to generate revenues, if any. We are dependent upon
key personnel, and loss of these individuals could severely curtail the
company's ability to implement its business plan. Due to our limited resources,
we may not be able to attract and retain qualified personnel. If we do not
experience sufficient revenue growth, we may need to obtain additional funding
which, if not obtained, could hamper our operational abilities.
WE FACE
INTENSE COMPETITION. IF WE DO NOT COMPETE EFFECTIVELY, OUR BUSINESS MAY
SUFFER.
We face
intense competition from numerous competitors. Each of our product lines face
different competitors with different financial resources including competitors
with greater amounts of financing than us. We may not be able to compete
effectively with all of these competitors. Our products compete primarily on the
basis of product quality, weight and size, installation ease, performance,
innovation, price and applications and marketing expertise. To remain
competitive, we must periodically enhance our existing products and respond to
new technologies. In addition, new competitors may emerge, and product lines may
be threatened by new technologies or market trends that reduce the value of
these product lines.
OUR
TECHNOLOGY IS IMPORTANT TO OUR SUCCESS AND OUR FAILURE TO PROTECT THIS
TECHNOLOGY COULD PUT US AT A COMPETITIVE DISADVANTAGE.
Because a
majority of our products rely on proprietary technology, we believe that the
development and protection of the intellectual property rights for the
proprietary technology is important to the future success of our business. In
addition to relying on patent, trademark, and copyright rights, we rely on
unpatented proprietary know-how and trade secrets, and employ various methods to
protect our know-how and trade secrets, including the use of nondisclosure and
similar contractual agreements. Despite our efforts to protect proprietary
rights, unauthorized parties or competitors may copy or otherwise obtain and use
these products or technology. The steps we have taken may not prevent
unauthorized use of this technology and there can be no assurance that others
will not independently develop the know-how and trade secrets or develop better
technology than us or that current and former employees, contractors and other
parties will not misappropriate proprietary information and copy or otherwise
obtain and use our information and proprietary technology without authorization
or otherwise infringe on our intellectual property rights.
WE ARE
AND MAY IN THE FUTURE INVOLVED IN VARIOUS LEGAL PROCEEDINGS WHICH ARISE DURING
THE COURSE OF OUR BUSINESS THAT COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR
FINANCIAL POSITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
We are
involved in and will in the future become involved in various legal proceedings
that periodically arise during the course of business. While we have reason to
believe that the outcome of the one pending matter (see Note 8 under Legal
Proceedings of the 2004 Audited Financials and Note 7 of the March 31, 2005
Financials(unaudited)) will not have a material adverse effect on our financial
position, litigation is essentially unpredictable and excessive verdicts could
occur. With regard to any future litigation, we cannot predict whether the
outcome of such litigation will have a material adverse effect on our financial
position. Although we believe we have valid defenses in the current matter, we
cannot predict whether we will have valid defenses in future matters, and, in
the future we could incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that
could have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of
operations.
WE MAY
BECOME SUBJECT TO BURDENSOME REGULATIONS.
We may
become subject to burdensome governmental regulations and legal uncertainties
affecting the long haul trucking and general aviation industries, which could
adversely affect our business and increase our cost and expenses. With regard to
the long haul trucking industry, we are regulated by federal and state
regulation which limit idling of long haul trucks. However, we believe that the
federal government and the states may eventually enact “zero idling”
legislation, and or other legislation to prevent any emissions from diesel
engines on trucks during periods when the trucks are stopped. Since the AXP 1000
utilizes a diesel engine which still emits small amounts of noxious emissions,
the device would be ineffective in a “zero idling” legislative environment.
Other environmental laws could similarly limit the effectiveness of our current
device. Thus, we need to comply with a strict regulatory scheme which is
expensive and time consuming in order to develop and market new
products.
As a
result, legal uncertainties and new regulations could:
|
« |
increase
our costs of doing business, and |
| |
|
|
« |
require
us to revise our products or services, |
any of
which could increase our expenses, reduce our revenues and thereby materially
adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Laws and regulations directly applicable to us have limited capital and may
require additional future capital to continue operations; inability to obtain
the necessary financing may force us to curtail or suspend our
operations.
THE
IMPLEMENTATION OF STOCK-BASED BENEFIT PLANS MAY DILUTE YOUR OWNERSHIP
INTEREST.
We may
enact one or more stock-based benefit plans for our employees as we expand in
order to attract talented employees by offering “market” benefits. Such plans
may cause the issuance of more stock, which will dilute the percentage of
ownership interest of current stockholders.
OUR
COMMON STOCK IS DEEMED TO BE “PENNY STOCK,” WHICH MAY MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR
OUR STOCKHOLDERS TO SELL THEIR SHARES DUE TO SUITABILITY
REQUIREMENTS.
Trading
in our common stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules. The Securities
Exchange Commission has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock
to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share.
These rules require that any broker-dealer who recommends our securities to
persons other than prior customers and accredited investors, must, before the
sale, make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser and
receive the purchaser's written agreement to execute the transaction. In
addition, unless an exception is available, the broker-dealer must deliver a
disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated
with trading in the penny stock market prior to any transaction. Further,
broker-dealers must disclose commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and
the registered representative and current quotations for the securities they
offer. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements
may discourage them from transactions in our common stock, which could severely
limit the market price and liquidity of our common stock.
DEPENDENCE
ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF QUALIFIED SUPPLIERS OF COMPONENTS AND MANUFACTURING
EQUIPMEN T COULD LEAD TO DELAYS, LOST REVENUE OR INCREASED COSTS.
Because
we depend on a limited number of suppliers for certain components and
manufacturing equipment, an increase in the cost of such components or
equipment, an extended shortage of required components or equipment, failure of
a key supplier's business process, or the failure of key suppliers to remain in
business, adjust to market conditions, or to meet our quality, yield or
production requirements could significantly harm our operating results. A number
of the components used by us are available from only a single or limited number
of qualified outside suppliers, and may be used across multiple product lines.
In addition, some of the components (or component types) used in our products
are used in other devices. If there is a significant simultaneous upswing in
demand for such a component (or component type) from several high volume
industries, resulting in a supply reduction, or a component is otherwise in
short supply, or if a supplier fails to qualify or has a quality issue with a
component, we may experience delays or increased costs in obtaining that
component. In addition, if a component becomes unavailable, we could suffer
significant loss of revenue.
To reduce
the risk of component shortages, we attempt to provide significant lead times
when buying these components. As a result, we may be subject to cancellation
charges if we cancel orders, which may occur when we make technology
transitions.
In order
to further reduce the risk of supply shortages, we have purchased BMZ Generators
and Anchor Manufacturing in order to control the supply of generators and air
conditioning components for the AXP 1000 units; however, those subsidiaries also
depend on suppliers, and require significant cash to operate, so a downturn in
either of those businesses could also have a material adverse impact on the
Company.
In some
cases, not only are we dependent on a limited number of suppliers, but we also
have entered into or may enter into in the future contractual commitments that
require us to buy a substantial number of components from certain suppliers. Our
future operating results may depend substantially on our suppliers' ability to
timely qualify their components in our programs, and their ability to supply us
with these components in sufficient volume to meet our production requirements.
A significant disruption in any of these suppliers' ability to manufacture and
supply us with the components could harm our operating results.
FORWARD
LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
prospectus contains forward-looking statements which relate to future events or
our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify
forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “will”, “should”,
“expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”,
“potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable
terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown

USE OF
PROCEEDS
The
shares of common stock offered hereby are being registered for the account of
the selling stockholders named in this prospectus. As a result, all proceeds
from the sales of the common stock will go to the selling stock-holders and we
will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the selling
stockholders. We will, however, incur all costs associated with this
registration statement and prospectus.
DETERMINATION
OF OFFERING PRICE
The
offering price will be determined from time to time by the selling stockholders.
See “Plan of Distribution.”
SELLING
STOCKHOLDERS
The
selling stockholders may offer and sell, from time to time, any or all of their
common stock being registered hereunder. Because the selling stockholders may
offer all or only some portion of the 123,242,702 shares of common stock to be
registered, no estimate can be given as to the amount or percentage of these
shares of common stock that will be held by the selling stockholders upon
termination of the offering.
None of
the selling shareholders had any position, office or material relationship with
us or any of our affiliates in the last three years. The selling stockholders
are not broker-dealers (acting in such capacity) or affiliates of a
broker-dealer to our knowledge.
The
following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial
ownership of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders as of May 20,
2005 and the number of shares of common stock covered by this prospectus. The
number of shares in the table represents an estimate of the number of shares of
common stock to be offered by the selling stockholder.

The funds
were invested pursuant to Secured Convertible Notes, dated as of April 27, 2005,
May 10, 2005, May 12, 2005 and the fifth day following the date of effectiveness
of this Registration Statement (the “Notes”).
The terms
of the Notes are as follows:
The
coupon payment is due on October 1, 2005, and semi annually thereafter while the
Notes are outstanding, and the Notes are due on the two year anniversary of the
issuance date.
The Notes
are convertible into EENT Common Stock at any time at the holder's discretion in
part or in whole by dividing the principal amount converted by a price
(“Conversion Price”) equal to the lesser of (i) $0.12, or (ii) 70% of the
average of the five lowest closing bid prices of the Common Stock as reported by
Bloomberg L.P. for the Over the Counter Bulletin Board for the twenty trading
days preceding a conversion date. Until the later of 270 days after the issue
date of this Note, or until the closing bid price of the Common Stock as
reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the Principal Market is less than $.06, the
minimum Conversion Price shall be $0.05. At all times beneficial ownership of
EENT Common Stock for any investor and its affiliates shall not exceed 4.99% on
an as converted basis (unless such investor opts to waive such condition).
Conversion Price is adjusted equitably for stock splits and the
like.
Selling
Shareholders were issued an aggregate of 42,242,704 five year Class A Warrants
at an exercise price of $0.12 per share. The Class A Warrants are callable by
the Company at $0.12 per share if for any 10 day trading period the common stock
closes at least $0.24 per share for each of the trading days.
The
Selling Shareholders were issued an aggregate of 11,000,000 five year Class B
Warrants at an exercise price of $0.20 per share. One half of the Class B
Warrants are callable by the Company following the two consecutive calendar
months during which the Company has sold and delivered 100 AXP 1000 units, and
all of the Class B Warrants may be called during the calendar month following
the two consecutive months during which the Company has sold and delivered 150
AXP 1000 units.
Within 30
business days of April 27, 2005, EENT is required to file a registration
statement on Form SB-2 for the shares into which the Convertible Notes are
convertible and underlying the Warrants. The Company shall use its best efforts
to have the registration statement declared effective within 120 days after
April 27, 2005.
Events of
Default under the Convertible Notes include: bankruptcy; failure to timely file
the Registration Statement; failure to maintain trading of the Common Stock on
the over the counter bulletin board; and failure to make any payment within 30
days of the due date therefor. Remedies include foreclosure on the assets of the
Company and its subsidiaries, on which purchasers of the Notes have a first
lien, and payment of a 2% per month penalty for late filing of the registration
statement, or if it is not effective within 120 days after April 27,
2005.
Selling
Shareholders also covenant not to use any of the Shares registered hereunder to
cover any short position in the Company’s Common Stock.
PLAN OF
DISTRIBUTION
This
prospectus relates to the offer and sale from time to time by the selling
stockholders of up to 123,242,702 shares of common stock. We have registered
such shares of common stock for sale to provide the holders thereof with freely
tradeable securities, but registration of such shares does not necessarily mean
we will issue any of such shares or that the selling stockholders will offer or
sell such shares. Any of the selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell
all or a portion of the shares of common stock on any market upon which the
common stock may be quoted (currently the NASDAQ Over the Counter Bulletin
Board), in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Sales may be at fixed
prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the market prices or
at negotiated prices. The offering price of the shares from time to time will be
determined by the selling stockholders and, at the time of such determination,
may be higher or lower than the market price of the shares on the NASDAQ Over
the Counter Bulletin Board.
The
shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus may be sold by the
selling stockholders or by their donees, transferees, successors or assigns by
one or more of the following methods, without limitation:
|
« |
on
the NASDAQ Over the Counter Bulletin Board or any other exchange or over
the counter market on which the stock is listed at the time of
sale; |
| |
|
|
« |
block
trades in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the
shares of common stock as agent but may position and resell a portion of
the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
| |
|
|
« |
purchases
by broker or dealer as principal and resale by the broker or dealer for
its own account pursuant to this prospectus; |
| |
|
|
« |
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits
purchasers; |
| |
|
|
« |
privately
negotiated transactions; |
| |
|
|
« |
market
sales (both long and short to the extent permitted under the federal
securities laws); |
| |
|
|
« |
at
the market to or through market makers or into an existing market for the
shares; |
| |
|
|
« |
through
transactions in options, swaps or other derivatives (whether exchange
listed or otherwise); |
| |
|
|
« |
in
underwritten offerings; and |
| |
|
|
« |
a
combination of any aforementioned methods of
sale. |
The
selling stockholders may accept and, together with any agents of the selling
stockholders, reject in whole or in part any proposed purchase of shares of
common stock offered by this prospectus. The Company will not receive any
proceeds from the offering of shares by the selling
stockholders.
In the
event of the transfer by any of the selling stockholders of their shares to any
pledgee, donee or other transferee, we will amend this prospectus and the
registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part by the filing of a
post-effective amendment in order to have the pledgee, donee or other transferee
in place of the selling stockholders who have transferred his or her
shares.
In
effecting sales, brokers and dealers engaged by the selling stock-holder may
arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Brokers or dealers may
receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholder or, if any of the
broker-dealers act as an agent for the purchaser of such shares, from the
purchaser in amounts to be negotiated which are not expected to exceed those
customary in the types of transactions involved. Broker-dealers may agree with
the selling stockholder to sell a specified number of the shares of common stock
at a stipulated price per share. Such an agreement may also require the
broker-dealer to purchase as principal any unsold shares of common stock at the
price required to fulfill the broker-dealer commitment to the selling
stockholder if such broker-dealer is unable to sell the shares on behalf of the
selling stockholder. Broker-dealers who acquire shares of common stock as
principal may thereafter resell the shares of common stock from time to time in
transactions which may involve block transactions and sales to and through other
broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above. Such sales
by a broker dealer could be at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time
of sale, at prices related to the then-current market price or in negotiated
transactions. In connection with such resales, the broker-dealer may pay to or
receive from the purchasers of the shares commissions as described
above.
The
selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the
selling stockholders in the sale of the shares of common stock may be deemed to
be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with
these sales. In that event, any commissions received by the broker-dealers or
agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by
them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the
Securities Act.
From time
to time, the selling stockholders may pledge their shares of common stock
pursuant to the margin provisions of its customer agreements with its brokers.
Upon a default by a selling stockholder, the broker may offer and sell the
pledged shares of common stock from time to time. Upon a sale of the shares of
common stock, the selling stockholder intends to comply with the prospectus
delivery requirements under the Securities Act by delivering a prospectus to
each purchaser in the transaction. We intend to file any amendments or other
necessary documents in compliance with the Securities Act which may be required
in the event the selling stockholder defaults under any customer agreement with
brokers.
To the
extent required under the Securities Act, a prospectus supplement accompanying
this prospectus, or, if appropriate, a post effective amendment to this
registration statement will be filed, disclosing the name of any underwriters or
broker-dealers, the number of shares of common stock involved, the price at
which the common stock is to be sold, the commissions paid or discounts or
concessions allowed to such underwriters or broker-dealers, where applicable,
that such broker-dealers did not conduct any investigation to verify the
information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and other
facts material to the transaction.
We and
the selling stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations under it, including, without
limitation, Rule 10b-5 and, insofar as the selling stockholders are distribution
participants and we, under certain circumstances, may be a distribution
participant, under Regulation M. All of the foregoing may affect the
marketability of the common stock.
All
expenses of the registration statement including, but not limited to, legal,
accounting, printing and mailing fees are and will be borne by us. Any
commissions, discounts or other fees payable to underwriters or broker- dealers
in connection with any sale of the shares of common stock will be borne by the
selling stockholder, the purchasers participating in such transaction, or
both.
Any
shares of common stock covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale
pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as amended, may be sold under
Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.
We have
not registered or qualified the shares of common stock offered by this
prospectus under the laws of any country, other than the United States. In
certain states, the selling stockholders may not offer or sell their shares of
common stock unless (1) we have registered or qualified such shares for sale in
such states or (2) we have complied with an available exemption from
registration or qualification. Also, in certain states, to comply with such
state securities laws, the selling stockholders can offer and sell their shares
of common stock only through registered or licensed brokers or
dealers.
LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS
On
October 28, 2003, the Company was served with a complaint by 600 Racing, Inc.
The complaint alleges that EENT is liable on a $150,000 judgment issued against
Millennium Fuels USA, LLC (“MFUSA”), an unrelated entity, of which Will McAndrew
and Roger Wurtele, the Company's CEO and CFO, respectively, were the Managers.
The complaint alleges that the Company engaged in a joint enterprise with MFUSA
and integrated resources with MFUSA and is thus liable on an “alter ego” theory.
