ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


OUR BUSINESS

Nettaxi.com is an Internet marketing portal that provides content and
Internet based services for consumers and businesses. Our web site at
www.nettaxi.com serves as a gathering place for people with shared topics of
interest, as well as an entry point, referred to as a portal, to the Internet.
Through our web site, we provide content addressing a number of targeted
affinity categories such as news, sports, entertainment, health, politics,
finances, lifestyle, and other areas of interest. Visitors to our web site are
provided with this content. Subscribers to our web site are also provided with
access to enhanced content such as broadband video clips, email accounts and
personal web pages. Our original revenue model included access to web site
hosting services and a broad range of content for our individual subscribers, or
"citizens", and access to a population of Internet users for affiliated
businesses for advertising and promotional purposes.

During 2000, we focused our efforts on improving the quality of content
available on our web site, implementing our web site hosting services and
reducing our operating costs by eliminating unprofitable services . We devoted
significant resources to developing our content and our services, including
developing an infrastructure and building a management team. We also focused on
developing consumer loyalty and increasing our overall level of traffic and
citizenship.

In 2001, we faced the challenges of an overall downturn in the Internet
industry and the economy in general. The bankruptcy and liquidation of many of
our Internet-based customers and suppliers caused us to re-evaluate our business
model. Since the Internet infrastructure is unstable and customer base


4

financially weak, we first took corrective action to significantly decrease our
cash burn. Beginning in May 2001, we reduced the salaries of our employees and
the number of personnel, marketing expenses and costs associated with our
hosting activities.

At the same time, we re-evaluated the viability of our web site hosting and
Internet connectivity services. Prior to June 2001, we provided these services
to corporate customers through a state-of-the-art Internet data center located
in Southern California using a high-performance Internet backbone network.
Customers paid monthly fees for the professional services utilized, one-time
installation fees, and connectivity charges. These "hosting" revenues were
recognized in the period the services were provided. Hosting revenues were
variable, based upon bandwidth usage and services used, and resulted in
operating losses from time to time. As a result of our evaluation, we terminated
our significant co-hosting customer contracts effective July 7, 2001. We also
discontinued the purchase of bandwidth and premium services from our third party
provider, further reducing monthly expenditures. Beginning in the third quarter
of 2001, the terminations have reduced our operating expenses, but have also
materially affected our revenues. As of December 31, 2001 we had incurred
losses of approximately $36.2 million. In spite of our cost cutting measures,
there can be no assurance that our operating losses will not increase in the
future.

We continue to operate our website, however, we have focused our energies
on our acquisition strategy and therefore have not pursued any revenue
generating activities in the last six months of 2001.

While curtailing operations in 2001, we also undertook an analysis to
determine the best course of action to maintain and enhance the value of our
company. Given the challenges facing Internet-based business models, including
but not limited to the decline in advertising, we decided that our then-current
business model would not support future growth. We implemented an acquisition
strategy pursuant to which we sought to identify an appropriate entity with
which to merge, acquire or restructure our current business. Since the
announcement of our acquisition strategy in May 2001, we have evaluated a number
of potential merger candidates in a wide variety of industries.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

On January 9, 2002 we entered into a merger agreement under which we agreed
to merge with RAE Systems Inc., a California corporation that designs and
manufactures portable gas detection instruments and wireless monitoring and
communications equipment. If the merger is consummated, we will abandon our
business model and adopt the business model of RAE Systems. The merger is
subject to the approval of our stockholders. Further information regarding the
merger will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to our
solicitation of proxies from our stockholders with respect to the merger.

Mergers carry numerous risks and uncertainties and we cannot guarantee that
we will be able to successfully integrate any businesses, products, technologies
or personnel that might be acquired in the future.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND

The Internet has been a significant medium for global communications.
Millions of people around the world use the Internet to send and receive
information, for entertainment, current events and to purchase products and
services. Nevertheless, companies in the Internet industry struggled in 2001.
"The Internet downturn casts a wide arc mowing down the strong, the weak and the
in-between." The Industry Standard, Layoffs, Losses and Closures Continue in
Telecom Sector August 2, 2001. The downturn in the industry particularly hurt
companies that advertise on the Internet. The Industry Standard, At Online Ad
Conference, More Questions Than Answers August 10, 2001.

PORTALS. Portal web sites, such as ours, provide a single online location
where users can interact and find and share pertinent information, products and
services related to their particular interests or needs. Portal sites generally
offer free services including access to e-mail accounts, chat rooms, message
boards, news and entertainment. These features tend to increase user loyalty
towards particular portal web sites. Users with an email account with a
particular web site are likely to repeat visits to the web site on a regular
basis to check email and gather other information.

ADVERTISING. Prior to 2001, the Internet was an attractive medium for
advertisers. The Internet has allowed advertisers to demographically target
their messages to groups of Internet users with particular interests, in a
manner not available through the means of traditional media. The Internet has
also provided to advertisers a unique level of interactivity and measurability.
Advertisers can use the Internet to display messages on certain web pages. These
messages are referred to as impressions. Consumers wishing for more information
on the advertised topic can use their computers to click, or click-through, on
those impressions and move through to other web pages which provide the
information sought. Using the Internet, advertisers can change their
advertisements frequently in response to market factors, current events and
consumer feedback. Advertisers can also track the effectiveness of their
advertising messages by receiving reports of the number of advertising
impressions delivered to consumers and the corresponding number of times that
consumers click on those impressions and move through to the advertised web
page.

CONTENT. The Internet offers content providers mechanisms that combine cost
advantages with practices designed to generate revenue. The Internet provides
information dissemination at a materially lower cost than do other forms of
media, notably, both printed paper and private networks. The Internet also
offers the potential for easier access to content, which can expand market
coverage.

MARKETING PLANS & PROGRAMS

Prior to May 2001, we focused our efforts on marketing, improving the
quality of content and hosting services available on our web site, and reducing
our operating costs by eliminating many of the services which were not
profitable. In this regard, we developed a number of new promotions designed to
generate new sources of revenue and build customer loyalty. These tools and
services included:


6

BROADBAND CONTENT. We developed relationships with content publishers to
assist in generating revenue through distribution, branding, awareness, and
promotions. In 2000 we added sources of new content that allow users to view
videos covering music, sports and other subjects. Users are required to
register as subscribers to our web site prior to viewing the content.
Advertisements are also displayed to users while progressing through the
registration process. Although we continue to offer these services to
subscribers to our web site, the revenues generated from these services in 2001
were not significant.

TARGETED AFFINITY CATEGORIES. We have organized information on our web site
into an extensive network of communities with a wide variety of themes,
including entertainment, government, home living, sports, finance, society and
culture. Users interested in particular themes can access those themes quickly
and easily. This creates marketing opportunities for media companies, Internet
service providers, and Internet content companies.

IMPROVED SEARCH METHODOLOGY. We had developed a metasearch engine that
enabled users to search multiple sites simultaneously and return the results to
one web page. This feature drove users to our web site, but did not generate
sufficient revenue. We have revised our search methodology to provide context
driven searches where advertisers purchase their placement in the search engine.
For example, a user of our web site may choose the subject "music" to search.
After the choice is made, the results of the search are presented in a list on a
new web page. Advertisers pay for premium placement at the top of the list.
This allows advertisers to bid for product placement on our web site and
increases revenue generated from our search services. Although we continue to
offer these services, the revenues generated from these services in 2001 were
not significant.

SEASONAL PROMOTIONS. During 2000, we implemented seasonal promotions
designed to drive Internet users to our e-commerce affiliates. For example, in
December 2000 we launched a promotion for Storerunner Network, Inc.
Storerunner.com placed advertisements for products it was selling as part of a
holiday sale on our web site. Users of our web site could click on the
Storerunner advertisements and move to the Storerunner.com web site and purchase
the products. Our agreement provided that we receive revenue for each user that
accessed the Storerunner.com site from our web site. Although this promotion
successfully increased the amount of traffic on our site, we discontinued
further services with Storerunner.com after they filed for protection under
Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in February 2001.

SUBSCRIBER SERVICES. During 2000, we revised the scope of services offered
to users of our web site to eliminate many of the free services which were
available. Currently, users are offered access to free services such as email
accounts and a limited variety of content such as video clips and information.
Users desiring additional services such as video clips may become subscribers.

Despite the implementation of these tools and services, our revenues failed to
keep pace with the costs associated with their implementation. We believe this
was the result of a downturn in the Internet industry and the economy in
general. As a result, in May 2001, in connection with the adoption of our
acquisition strategy, we reduced our marketing efforts significantly.

BUSINESS SERVICES

OUR WEB SITE

Information on our web site at www.nettaxi.com is divided into topic areas
which we refer to as affinity groups. We refer the registered users of our web
site as citizens. Our web site provides access to information on news, sports,
entertainment and other areas of interest. Citizens also have access to Internet
related services such as chat services and free e-mail accounts.

When users first arrive at www.nettaxi.com, they find hyperlinks to the
information categories we provide, such as:

- Member services and registration;
- Information sorted by topical areas of interest; and
- Content such as movies, sports clips and other broadband content.

Upon selecting one of the links, for example entertainment, a web page
containing articles and information about entertainment appears along with an
extensive list of categories, or more specific search topics, such as music and
television. Choosing the more specific search topic will further focus your
search to uncover more specific information.

APPLICATIONS AND FEATURES

We offer a range of applications and features to our citizens through our
web site, including the following:

OUR SEARCH ENGINE. Users of our web site can access our specially
configured search engine, which we refer to as our taxi, located in all areas
and levels of our web site. Users may use the search engine by typing in a
search topic such as sports, and they are quickly presented with a list of
hyperlinks to web pages carrying sports related information. Advertisers on our
site compete for placement in the search results by paying fees to us. The
advertisers that pay the highest fees are brought to the top of the list of
search results. Although we continue to offer these services on a limited
basis, the revenues generated from these services in 2001 were not significant.

E-MAIL SERVICES. Our e-mail services allow users to access their accounts,
through both Post Office Protocol, POP, and the Internet, IMAP. POP e-mail is
the type most commonly used by Internet service providers. Its primary advantage
for users is that messages are sent and received quickly and with more privacy,
because they do not stay resident on a server for any length of time. Its
greatest disadvantage is that e-mail messages, once delivered to a user, are
generally no longer available for download again, so that a user who downloads
e-mail to a home computer, for example, will generally not be able to download
the same mail at a later time to another computer, such as one at work. IMAP, or
web-based e-mail, most commonly used by portal services, allows users to


8

retrieve e-mail messages from any location that offers access to the Internet
and a specific web site. Sending and receiving messages may be a bit slower than
POP services, but messages are stored on a server, can be retrieved multiple
times, and remain available until they are either specifically deleted by the
user, or a set amount of time has passed.

CONTENT. Prior to May 2001, we developed relationships with providers of
premium content in a variety of categories. The purpose of these relationships
was not to directly generate revenue, but rather to enhance the quantity and
quality of information and content on our web site so that visitors would be
drawn to our web site. During 2001, we had formal relationships with the three
premium content providers described below and they provided substantially all of
the content on our web site that is provided by outside parties. The providers
are listed in order by the amount of content they provided to us.

- SCREAMINGMEDIA. In April 2000, we entered into a license agreement
with ScreamingMedia, an aggregator of a broad range of content such as current
events, daily horoscopes, world news, travel, medicine and health for
syndication to Internet portals and destination sites. The license agreement
has a one year term and automatically renews for successive one-year periods
unless terminated. We paid a monthly license fee of $5,000 for use of
ScreamingMedia's content, which constituted the majority of our outside party
content. In connection with our acquisition strategy, we terminated our
agreement with ScreamingMedia, effective in February 2002.

- ACTIVEWORLDS. In March 2001, we launched a new area within our web
site pursuant to an agreement we entered into in August 2000 with
ActiveWorlds.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Users that visited our web
site, downloaded the appropriate software and paid a monthly fee could access a
series of web pages complete with three dimensional graphics. The graphics were
designed so that the area had the look and feel of an urban environment. In
connection with our acquisition strategy, we have terminated our agreement with
ActiveWorlds. Although we were to receive a portion of the fees collected by
ActiveWorlds from users of our site that subscribed to the service, revenues
from this agreement were not significant in 2001.

- STORERUNNER.COM. In September 2000, we entered into an agreement with
StoreRunner Network, Inc. under which we placed Storerunner advertisements on
our web site and were to be compensated based on the number of visitors to our
site that visited the Storerunner site. Although this agreement resulted in
increased traffic on our web site, we discontinued further services with
Storerunner.com after it filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the United
States Bankruptcy Code in February 2001.

WEB SITE HOSTING SERVICES

Prior to the adoption of our acquisition strategy in May 2001, we offered
our registered users web site hosting services. Using these services, we hosted
the web sites of over 300 individuals or businesses. These services generally
fell into two categories.

First, we hosted web pages for subscribers to our web site for a monthly
fee. The minimum fee for the services was $19.95 per month. Subscribers to these
services were provided with storage space and bandwidth to support their web


9

sites. The fee increased depending on the amount of bandwidth and storage space
used by the subscriber. At times, hosting revenues failed to keep pace with the
costs of bandwidth and other related costs. We terminated these hosting services
following the adoption of our acquisition strategy in May 2001.

Second, we provided Internet hosting and connectivity for larger corporate
customers. These services involved our maintenance of the servers which hosted
the web sites of these customers. For example, we had an agreement with White
Sand Communications, Inc. pursuant to which we hosted its web site servers and
provided support for the overall operation of the servers. Our services were
delivered through Alchemy Communications at its Internet data center located in
Los Angeles, California. Customers paid monthly fees for the professional
services utilized, one-time installation fees, and monthly connectivity charges.
These hosting revenues were recognized in the period the services were provided.
Hosting revenues were variable, based upon bandwidth usage and services used,
and resulted in operating losses from time to time. In connection with our
acquisition strategy, we terminated our significant co-hosting customer
contracts effective July 7, 2001.

In connection with this, we also discontinued the purchase of bandwidth and
premium services from our third party provider. The terminations have reduced
our operating expenses, and materially affected our revenues beginning in the
third quarter of 2001.

SUBSCRIBER SERVICE PLANS AND ASSISTANCE

Prior to the adoption of our acquisition strategy in May 2001, we offered
both free and premium accounts, on a tiered basis: (i) free citizen accounts,
which provided e-mail service for one personal account and access to chat
sessions, message boards, shopping and premium content; and (ii) premium
account, which allowed subscribers to build premium accounts from a menu of
options including unlimited e-mail accounts, disk space for web page hosting and
access to promotional opportunities. We ceased offering premium accounts to
users following the adoption of our acquisition strategy in May 2001. If we
consummate the merger with RAE Systems, the free account services will be
terminated.

CUSTOMERS

ADVERTISING CUSTOMERS. In 2000 we attracted both mass market consumer
product companies and technology-related businesses advertising on the Internet.
However, due to a variety of factors including the downturn in the Internet
industry and the economy in general, we failed to generate substantial revenues
from the sale of advertising. In May 2001, in connection with our acquisition
strategy, we ceased aggressively marketing our advertising services. Although
we continue to operate our web site and to sell advertising on our web site,
advertising revenues have declined substantially. No advertising customer
accounted for more than ten percent of our revenues in 2001.

Advertisers and advertising agencies enter into short-term agreements, on
average one to two months with us, pursuant to which they receive a guaranteed
number of impressions for a fixed fee. If the guaranteed number of impressions
is not delivered, the term of the agreements are extended until the impressions
can be delivered. Advertising on our site currently consists of banner-style


10

advertisements that are prominently displayed at the top of pages on a rotating
basis throughout the web pages in our web site. From each banner advertisement,
viewers can hyperlink directly to the advertiser's own web site, thus providing
the advertiser an opportunity to directly interact with an interested customer.
Our standard cost per thousand impressions depends upon a number of factors
including the location of the advertisement, its size and the extent to which it
is targeted for a particular audience. Discounts from standard cost per
thousand impressions rates may be provided for higher volume, longer-term
advertising contracts.

We also received advertising revenue as a result of the adoption of our
revised search methodology. Our search methodology uses context driven searches
where advertisers purchase their placement in the search engine. For example, a
user of our web site may choose the subject "music" to search. After the choice
is made, the results of the search are presented in a list on a new web page.
Advertisers pay for premium placement at the top of the list. This allows
advertisers to bid for product placement on our web site.

WEB SITE HOSTING CUSTOMERS. Prior to the adoption of our acquisition
strategy in May 2001, we offered our registered users web site hosting services.
Using these services, we hosted the web sites of over 300 individuals or
businesses. These services generally fell into two categories. First, we
hosted web pages for subscribers to our web site for a monthly fee. The minimum
fee for these services was $19.95 per month. We also provided Internet hosting
and connectivity for larger corporate customers. These services involved our
maintenance of the servers which host the web sites of these customers. For the
twelve months ended December 31, 2001, web hosting revenues accounted for
approximately 90% of total revenues. We terminated all of our web site hosting
services following the adoption of our acquisition strategy in May 2001 and
revenues declined substantially.

In August 1999, we entered into a Data Center Service Agreement with White
Sand Communications, Inc. We provided White Sand Communications with space in
our Data Center and provided support for the overall operation of the their web
servers. The fee for this agreement was a monthly recurring fee which included
charges for use and occupancy of the Data Center, connectively fee, power
charges, and where applicable, technical support and system administration fees.
The term of the agreement was one year. This agreement accounted for 19% of our
revenues in 2001, 11% of our revenue in 2000 and 17% of our revenue in 1999. We
terminated this agreement as of July 7, 2001.

In July 1999, we entered into a Data Center Service Agreement with Babenet,
Ltd, a California corporation. We provided Babenet with space in our Data
Center for their web servers and provide support for the overall operation of
the their web servers. The fee for this agreement was a monthly recurring fee
which included charges for use and occupancy of the Data Center, connectively
fee, power charges, and where applicable, technical support and system
administration fees. The term of this agreement was one year and continued on a
monthly basis thereafter. This agreement accounted for 47% of our revenues in
2001 and 20% of our revenue in 2000. We terminated this agreement as of July 7,
2001.

In July 1999, we entered into a Data Center Service Agreement with
Whitehorn Ventures , Ltd, a California corporation. We provided Whitehorn
Ventures with space in our Data Center for their web servers and provide support
for the overall operation of the their web servers. The fee for this agreement
was a monthly recurring fee which included charges for use and occupancy of the
Data Center, connectively fee, power charges, and where applicable, technical
support and system administration fees. The term of this agreement was one year
and continued on a monthly basis thereafter. This agreement accounted for 25%
of our revenues in 2001 and 8% of our revenue in 2000. We terminated this
agreement as of July 7, 2001.


11

ADVERTISING SALES AND DESIGN

Prior to May 2001, we focused our efforts on creating advertising
opportunities designed to build brand loyalty for our corporate sponsors by
seamlessly integrating their advertising messages into our content. Following
the adoption of our acquisition strategy in May 2001, we terminated
substantially all of our efforts in this regard.

SALES AND MARKETING

Prior to the adoption of our acquisition strategy in May 2001, we committed
substantial resources to sales and marketing activities, including offline and
online media advertising. Our sales and marketing efforts were focused on:

- Generating additional traffic to our site;

- Building and defining a desirable online destination for consumers
and businesses; and

- Creating and enhancing our brand within the Internet and online
industries.

These efforts were costly and not consistent with our acquisition strategy
adopted in May 2001. As a result we terminated substantially all of our efforts
in this regard.

OPERATING INFRASTRUCTURE

At this time, the basic components of our technology infrastructure are in
place and operational. Our UNIX-based electronic network for Nettaxi.com
operates on a one terabyte Ethernet backbone, with two Cisco Systems Ethernet
switches that prevent collisions on the network. Traffic direction for the web
servers is handled by Arrowpoint's CS-100, which tracks server load conditions
in real time and sends traffic to the most appropriate server to spread around
and balance the load. The network is comprised primarily of Sun Microsystems
high-capacity servers, and include a mix of Enterprise 450s, Ultra 1, and Ultra
5 models, all running the newest version of Sun's Solaris operating environment
for network systems. These servers collectively provide approximately 1.6
terabytes of hard drive space for subscriber capacities.

In addition, the network currently includes NT servers to handle
registration and selected other database functions, using Microsoft's SQL
database software.


12

Our electronic network was located at Alchemy Communications in Los
Angeles, California. We had a Gigabit Data Services Agreement with Alchemy
Communications pursuant to which they provided us with a secure location for
our network servers, multiple high-speed Internet connections, and access to
24-hour-a-day, 7-day-a-week technical support personnel and services. Alchemy
Communications also provided routing, redundancy, streaming media and
maintenance services for the network and its Internet connections, as well as a
back-up power supply capable of continuing network operations for up to a week
in the event of a power failure. We paid monthly fees for these services. In
2002, in connection with the adoption of our acquisition strategy and the
termination of our web hosting services, we terminated our agreement with
Alchemy.

COMPETITION

The markets in which our web site is engaged are new, rapidly evolving and
intensely competitive, and we expect competition to intensify further in the
future. Barriers to entry are relatively low, and current and new competitors
can launch new sites at a relatively low cost using commercially-available
software. Our web site competes with a number of other companies for users,
advertisers and electronic commerce marketers, including a number of large
online communities and services that have expertise in developing online
commerce, and a number of other small services, including those that serve
specialty markets.

Other companies that offer web site hosting, email, and content services
include MegaGo.com, theglobe.com, Yahoo!, Homestead.com, Angelfire, Fortune
City, Lycos, and Talk City and, in the future, Internet communities may be
developed or acquired by companies currently operating Internet directories,
search engines, shareware archives, content sites, Internet Service Providers
and other entities, which may have more resources than ours. In addition, our
web site faces competition from traditional media companies, a number of which,
including CBS, Fox and NBC, have made significant acquisitions or investments in
Internet companies. Furthermore, we compete for users and advertisers with
other content providers and with thousands of web sites operated by individuals,
the government and educational institutions. Such providers and sites include
AOL, Angelfire, CNET, CNN/Time Warner, Excite, Hotmail, Infoseek, Lycos,
Microsoft, Netscape, Switchboard, ESPN.com, ZDNet.com and Yahoo!

Many of our competitors have longer operating histories, larger customer
bases, greater brand recognition in other business and Internet markets and
significantly greater financial, marketing, technical and other resources than
us. In addition, other online services may be acquired by, receive investments
from or enter into other commercial relationships with larger, well-established
and well-financed companies as use of the Internet and other online services
increases. Many of our competitors have continued to devote substantial
resources to marketing and promotional campaigns, adopting more aggressive
pricing policies and enhancing web site and systems development. These
competitors may have gained a significant advantage over us while we have
limited our similar expenditures in connection with the adoption of our
acquisition strategy. This advantage may prevent our web site's ability to
attract users in the future.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

We currently have pending applications before the United States Patent and
Trademark Office for trademark and service mark protection for "Nettaxi" and
"NetroNews". If these applications are approved, protection will be available
for the periods prescribed by law. The protection of our copyrights, service
marks, trademarks, trade dress and trade secrets are were important to the
success of our web site, but are not necessarily important in connection with
our acquisition strategy. We have entered into confidentiality and invention
assignment agreements with our employees and contractors in order to limit
access to and disclosure of our proprietary information. There can be no
assurance that these contractual arrangements or the other steps taken by us to
protect our intellectual property will prove sufficient to prevent
misappropriation of our technology or to deter independent third-party
development of similar technologies.

Our web site also relies upon on technologies that we license from third
parties, such as the suppliers of key database technology, the operating system
and specific hardware components for our products and services. These licenses
extend for terms ranging from one year to perpetuity and are subject to
satisfaction of conditions laid out in the specific licensing agreements. There
can be no assurance that these third-party technology licenses will continue to
be available to us on commercially reasonable terms.

Although we do not believe that we infringe the proprietary rights of third
parties, there can be no assurance that third parties will not claim
infringement by us with respect to past, current or future technologies. We
expect that participants in our markets will be increasingly subject to
infringement claims as the number of services and competitors in our industry
segment grows. Any such claim, whether meritorious or not, could be
time-consuming, result in costly litigation and could prevent our ability to
enter into an acquisition. As a result, any such claim could have a material
adverse effect upon our business, results of operations and financial condition.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

Our company, operations and products and services are all subject to
regulations set forth by various federal, state and local regulatory agencies.
We take measures to ensure our compliance with all such regulations as
promulgated by these agencies from time to time. The Federal Communications
Commission sets standards and regulations regarding communications and related
equipment.

There are currently few laws and regulations directly applicable to the
Internet. It is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted
with respect to the Internet covering issues such as user privacy, pricing,
content, copyrights, distribution, antitrust and characteristics and quality of
products and services. The growth of the market for online commerce may prompt
calls for more stringent consumer protection laws that may impose additional
burdens on those companies conducting business online. Tax authorities in a
number of states are currently reviewing the appropriate tax treatment of
companies engaged in online commerce, and new state tax regulations may subject
us to additional state sales and income taxes.


14

In addition, because our web site is accessible worldwide, other
jurisdictions may claim that we are required to qualify to do business as a
foreign corporation in a particular state or foreign country. Our failure to
qualify as a foreign corporation in a jurisdiction where it is required to do so
could subject us to taxes and penalties for the failure to qualify and could
result in our inability to enforce contracts in such jurisdictions. Any such
new legislation or regulation, or the application of laws or regulations from
jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to our business, could have a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2001, we had four employees, all of whom were involved
in administration and finance. Technical assistance with our limited web site
operations have been provided by consultants. We have never had a work
stoppage, and no employees are represented under collective bargaining
agreements. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be
materially and adversely affected by any of the following risks.

WE HAVE INCURRED LOSSES SINCE OUR INCEPTION, AND EXPECT LOSSES FOR THE
FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

Since our inception, we have incurred net losses, resulting primarily from
costs related to developing our web site, attracting users to our web site and
establishing the Nettaxi.com brand. At December 31, 2001, we had an accumulated
deficit of $36,238,200. Losses have continued to grow faster than our revenues
during our limited operating history. Because of the bankruptcy and liquidation
of many of our Internet based customers and suppliers and because of the
reduction of our operating activities and expenditures in connection with our
acquisition strategy, we expect to incur significant net losses for the
foreseeable future. We may never achieve profitability.

ACQUISITIONS IN CONNECTION WITH OUR ACQUISITION STRATEGY MAY DISRUPT OR
OTHERWISE HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE VALUE OF OUR BUSINESS.

We are seeking to acquire a businesses that we believe will enhance the
value of our company. In this regard, we have agreed to merger with RAE Systems
Inc. The merger remains subject to certain conditions to closing as well as the
approval of our shareholders. If the Merger is consummated, Nettaxi's current
business model will be terminated and the company will implement the current
business model of RAE Systems. There can be no assurance that the business
model of RAE Systems will be profitable or successful. There can be no
assurance that the business model of RAE Systems will enhance the value of the
combined company or that the business model of RAE Systems will be any more
successful than the business model currently employed by Nettaxi. Additionally,
there can be no assurance that the Internet industry will not improve in the
future.


15

If the merger with RAE Systems does not take place, we may be unable to
identify any other business which could potentially enhance the value of our
company. Additionally, we may be unable to negotiate terms for an acquisition
which would be favorable to our shareholders. If we were to acquire a company,
the amount of time and level of resources required to successfully transition
our operations could be substantial. There can be no assurance that new
management would be able to successfully operate the business going forward.
Furthermore, in making an acquisition, we may have to incur debt or issue equity
securities to finance the acquisition, the issuance of which could dilute the
holdings of our existing shareholders.

WE CURRENTLY HAVE NO REVENUES, WHICH MAY CAUSE THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON
STOCK TO DECLINE.

We had revenues of approximately $2,069,500, $9,418,400 and $5,032,800 for
the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. While our growth
rate in prior years has been strong, revenues have substantially declined in
2001. We expect current market conditions and the adoption of our acquisition
strategy to have a continued material adverse effect on our revenues. We
continue to operate our website, however, we have focused our energies on our
acquisition strategy and therefore have not pursued any revenue generating
activities in the last six months of 2001. We terminated our significant
co-hosting customer contracts on`` July 7, 2001, which materially decreased our
revenues beginning in the third quarter of 2001.

Approximately $1.28 million of the revenues for the year ended December 31,
1999 were derived from credit card transaction processing fees, a revenue stream
that has declined significantly and that we do not believe will be material in
future periods. In the year 2000, we generated approximately $2.22 million in
revenue from reciprocal advertising transactions. These transactions were
terminated in year 2000.

If our operating results fall below the expectations of investors in future
periods, then our stock price may decline.

OUR ADVERTISERS ARE EMERGING INTERNET COMPANIES THAT REPRESENT CREDIT RISKS.

Some of our advertisers have limited operating histories, are operating at
a loss, have limited cash reserves or have limited access to capital. If any
significant part of our customer base experiences financial difficulties, is not
commercially successful or is unable to pay our advertising fees for any reason,
our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially and
adversely affected.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE BY OUR CURRENT STOCKHOLDERS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT
OUR STOCK PRICE.

As of December 31, 2001, approximately 28 million shares of our common
stock were immediately eligible for sale in the public market without
restriction or further restriction under the Securities Act of 1933, unless
purchased by or issued to any "affiliate" of ours, as that term is defined in


16

Rule 144 promulgated under that Act. Additionally, approximately 14 million
shares of common stock were eligible for sale under Rule 144. If our
stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock, the market price of
our common stock could be adversely affected and our ability to raise additional
capital at that time through the sale of our securities could be impaired.

WE MAY NEED TO UPDATE OUR REGISTRATION STATEMENTS

We have filed a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-36826),
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 12, 2000,
registering 32,730,849 shares issued and issuable pursuant to recent private
placement transactions. Additionally, we have filed a registration statement on
Form S-1 (File No. 333-38538), declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission on September 21, 2000, registering 4,219,692 shares of common stock
issued and issuable pursuant to recent private placement transactions. These
registration statements may need to be updated in order to maintain their
effectiveness. Although we anticipate updating these registration statements in
the near future, we may face liability from shareholders who are unable to sell
their shares under the registration statements before they are updated.

FUTURE EXERCISE OF WARRANTS OR ISSUANCES OF SECURITIES MAY SIGNIFICANTLY DILUTE
YOUR HOLDINGS.

There are currently warrants to purchase 18,525,816 shares of our common
stock outstanding and exercisable over the next four to five years having
exercise prices ranging from $1.50 to $12.38, subject to adjustment. The shares
underlying these warrants have been included in the registration statements
referenced above. There are also warrants to purchase 1,850,000 shares of our
common stock outstanding having exercise prices ranging from of $0.13 to $0.35
per share. Additionally, there are options to purchase 5,578,000 shares of our
common stock outstanding under our 1998 and 1999 Stock Option Plans. These
shares have been registered pursuant to our registration statement on Form S-8
(File No. 333-32678). As a result, shares issued upon exercise of stock options
are eligible for resale in the public market without restriction. If the holders
of our outstanding options, warrants and other convertible securities were to
exercise their rights, holders of our common stock could experience substantial
dilution of their investment.

It is possible that we will need to raise additional funds in the future in
order to execute a transaction pursuant to our acquisition strategy or if we are
to execute our strategic growth plan. If additional funds are raised through the
issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of
our stockholders will be reduced, stockholders may experience additional
dilution and such securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior
to those of our common stock. This may make an investment in our common stock
less attractive to other investors, thereby weakening the trading market for our
common stock.

WE MAY FACE THE INTERRUPTION OF OUR SERVICES AND THE DELAY IN THE IMPLEMENTATION
OF OUR ACQUISITION STRATEGY DUE TO INCREASED SECURITY MEASURES IN RESPONSE TO
TERRORISM.


17

Our business depends on the free flow of products and services through the
channels of commerce. Recently, in response to terrorists' activities and
threats aimed at the United States, transportation, mail, financial and other
services have been slowed or stopped altogether. Further delays or stoppages in
transportation, mail, financial or other services could have a material adverse
effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition and our
ability to complete an acquisition consistent with our acquisition strategy.
Furthermore, we may experience an increase in operating costs, such as costs for
transportation, insurance and security as a result of the activities and
potential activities. We may also experience delays in receiving payments from
payers that have been affected by the terrorist activities and potential
activities. The U.S. economy in general is being adversely affected by the
terrorist activities and potential activities and any economic downturn could
adversely impact our results of operations, impair our ability to raise capital
or otherwise adversely affect our ability to operate our business and pursue our
acquisition strategy.

OUR PROJECTED BROADBAND SERVICES AND ENHANCED CONTENT MAY NOT BE LAUNCHED ON A
TIMELY BASIS AND MAY NOT GENERATE THE ANTICIPATED LEVEL OF REVENUES.

During the first half of 2001, our strategic growth plan called for the
development and implementation of broadband services and enhanced content for
our subscribers. We have put our strategic growth plan on hold so that we may
attempt to execute our acquisition strategy. Should we choose to implement our
strategic growth plan in the future, the availability of many of these broadband
services will be dependent on our ability to enter into satisfactory contractual
relationships with parties offering related content and services which can be
made available to our subscribers, as well as relationships with parties seeking
to make online sales to our subscribers and other visitors to our web site. To
date, our revenues from broadband services and enhanced content have not been
material. In light of the reduction of our operating activities and expenditures
in connection with our acquisition strategy, we may not be able to commence
those services on a timely basis, and there can be no assurance that the
services will generate the anticipated amount of revenues.

WE RELY HEAVILY ON THIRD PARTIES FOR DEVELOPMENT OF SOFTWARE AND CONTENT AND FOR
ESSENTIAL BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY OUR FAILURE TO
MAINTAIN SATISFACTORY RELATIONSHIPS WITH SUCH PARTIES.

We depend on third parties for important aspects of our business, including
the development of software and access to the Internet. We have limited control
over these third parties, and we are not their only client. We may not be able
to maintain satisfactory relationships with any of them on acceptable commercial
terms, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to renew these agreements
at all. Further, we cannot be sure that the quality of products and services
that they provide may remain at the levels needed to enable us to conduct our
business effectively.

WE ARE VULNERABLE TO POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO OUR OPERATING SYSTEMS.

Our web site is dependent in part on our ability to protect our operating
systems against physical damage from fire, floods, earthquakes, power loss,
telecommunications failures, break-ins or other similar events. Our servers are


18

vulnerable to computer viruses, break-ins and similar disruptive problems. The
occurrence of any of these events could result in interruptions, delays or
cessations in service to our users and result in a decrease in the number of
visitors to our site. Sustained or repeated system failures or interruptions of
our web site connection services would reduce the attractiveness of our web site
to customers and advertisers, and could therefore have a material and adverse
effect on our business due to the loss of membership and advertising revenues.

WE DEPEND ON OUR KEY PERSONNEL TO OPERATE OUR BUSINESS AND CARRY OUT OUR
ACQUISITION STRATEGY.

Our performance is substantially dependent on the continued services and on
the performance of our executive officers. The loss of the services of any of
our executive officers could materially and adversely affect our business due to
their ability to help identify appropriate acquisition target companies, their
experience with our business plan and the disruption in the conduct of our
day-to-day operations.

INTENSE COMPETITION FROM OTHER INTERNET-BASED BUSINESSES MAY REDUCE OUR MARGINS
AND MARKET SHARE AND CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE.

The markets in which our web site operates are new, rapidly evolving and
intensely competitive. Barriers to entry are relatively low, and current and new
competitors can launch new sites at a relatively low cost using commercially
available software. Competition could result in price reductions for our
products and services, reduced margins or loss of market share. Consolidation
within the online commerce industry may also increase competition.

We currently or potentially compete with a number of other companies
including a number of large online communities and services that have expertise
in developing online commerce, and a number of other small services, including
those that serve specialty markets. Many of our potential competitors have
longer operating histories, larger customer bases, greater brand recognition and
significantly greater financial, marketing, technical and other resources than
us.

WE MAY FAIL TO ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHER WEB
SITES TO INCREASE NUMBERS OF WEB SITE USERS AND INCREASE OUR REVENUES.

We have attempted to establish numerous strategic relationships with
popular web sites to increase the number of visitors to our web site. These
efforts have been substantially slowed by the reduction of our operating
activities and expenditures in connection with our acquisition strategy. There
is intense competition for placements on these sites, and we may not be able to
enter into these relationships on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Even
if we enter into relationships with other web sites, they themselves may not
attract significant numbers of users. Therefore, our site may not receive
additional users from these relationships. Moreover, we may have to pay
significant fees to establish these relationships. Our inability to enter into
new distribution relationships and expand our existing ones could have a
material and adverse effect on our business due to our inability to increase the
number of users of our site.


19

WE ARE VULNERABLE TO ADDITIONAL TAX OBLIGATIONS THAT COULD BE IMPOSED ON ONLINE
COMMERCE TRANSACTIONS.

We do not expect to collect sales or other similar taxes in respect of
transactions engaged in by customers on our web site. However, various states or
foreign countries may seek to impose sales tax obligations on us and other
e-commerce and direct marketing companies. A number of proposals have been made
at the state and local levels that would impose additional taxes on the sale of
goods and services through the Internet. A successful assertion by one or more
states that we should have collected or be collecting sales taxes on the sale of
products could have a material and adverse effect on our business due to the
imposition of fines or penalties or the requirement that we pay for the
uncollected taxes.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF POTENTIAL TAX BENEFITS FROM OUR NET
OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARDS.

At December 31, 2001 we had Federal net operating loss carryforwards
available to reduce future Federal taxable income that aggregated approximately
$26.7 million for Federal income tax purposes. These benefits will begin to
expire in 2017. Our ability to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards are
dependent upon our ability to generate taxable income in future periods and may
be limited due to restrictions imposed under Federal and state laws upon change
in ownership. If we complete an acquisition consistent with our acquisition
strategy, we may be unable to apply these net operating loss carryforwards at
all.

WE COULD FACE LIABILITY FOR INFORMATION DISPLAYED ON AND COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH
OUR WEB SITE.

We may be subjected to claims for defamation, negligence, copyright or
trademark infringement or based on other theories relating to the information we
publish on our web site. These types of claims have been brought, sometimes
successfully, against Internet companies as well as print publications in the
past. Based on links we provide to other web sites, we could also be subjected
to claims based upon online content we do not control that is accessible from
our web site. Claims may also be based on statements made and actions taken as a
result of participation in our chat rooms or as a result of materials posted by
members on bulletin boards at our web site. We also offer e-mail services, which
may subject us to potential risks, such as:

- liabilities or claims resulting from unsolicited e-mail;
- lost or misdirected messages;
- illegal or fraudulent use of e-mail; or
- interruptions or delays in e-mail service.

These claims could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our
management's attention and resources.

WE COULD FACE ADDITIONAL BURDENS ASSOCIATED WITH GOVERNMENT REGULATION OF AND
LEGAL UNCERTAINTIES SURROUNDING THE INTERNET.


20

Any new law or regulation pertaining to the Internet, or the application or
interpretation of existing laws, could have a material and adverse effect on our
business, results of operations and financial condition due to increased costs
of doing business. Laws and regulations directly applicable to Internet
communications, commerce and advertising are becoming more prevalent. The law
governing the Internet, however, remains largely unsettled, even in areas where
there has been some legislative action. It may take years to determine whether
and how existing laws governing intellectual property, copyright, privacy,
obscenity, libel and taxation apply to the Internet. In addition, the growth and
development of e-commerce may prompt calls for more stringent consumer
protection laws, both in the United States and abroad. We also may be subject to
future regulation not specifically related to the Internet, including laws
affecting direct marketers.

WE COULD INCUR MONETARY DAMAGES FROM LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OUR BUSINESS
ACTIVITIES.

On May 1, 2001 seven shareholders of Nettaxi filed an action against
Nettaxi in the United States District Court for the Central District of
California (Case No. SACV 01-459 AHS). The complaint also names Robert Rositano,
Jr. its Chief Executive Officer, Dean Rositano, its President, and Glenn Goelz
its former Chief Financial Officer as additional defendants. The complaint
alleged that Nettaxi violated securities laws in connection with its February
2000 private placement. Six of the plaintiffs purchased shares of Nettaxi common
stock in the February 2000 private placement. Prior to filing the complaint, the
plaintiffs demanded the refund of all of the money invested in Nettaxi and
demanded that the exercise price of the warrants issued in the private placement
be reduced from $4.00 to $0.25 per share. Additionally, prior to the filing the
complaint, Nettaxi was asked to invest capital in a company affiliated with one
of the plaintiffs. In the complaint, the plaintiffs seek compensatory damages,
injunctive relief and fees and interest. Due to factual misrepresentations in
the complaint, Nettaxi anticipated that an amended complaint would be filed. The
complaint was amended on May 23, 2001. The amendment added three new plaintiffs
to the lawsuit. Shortly after filing the amended complaint, Nettaxi, pursuant to
the rules of the District Court, met with plaintiffs and pointed out further
factual inaccuracies and deficiencies. Plaintiffs then chose to attempt to amend
their complaint for a second time. On October 1, 2001 Nettaxi filed a motion to
dismiss the complaint filed by Plaintiffs. In response, Plaintiffs have filed an
opposition to Nettaxi's motion to dismiss and have sought leave to amend their
complaint for a third time. The District Court has informed the parties that it
will rule on the papers, and there will be no hearing.

Although we believe the allegations made in the complaint are without merit
and will defend the action vigorously, there can be no assurance that we will
prevail in this dispute. If the plaintiffs successfully prosecute any of their
claims against us, the resulting monetary damages and reduction in our working
capital could significantly harm our business.

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS AND OUR RIGHT TO ISSUE PREFERRED STOCK COULD MAKE A
THIRD PARTY ACQUISITION OF US DIFFICULT.

We are a Nevada corporation. Anti-takeover provisions of Nevada law could
make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us, even if such
change in control would be beneficial to stockholders. Our articles of


21

incorporation provide that our board of directors may issue preferred stock
without stockholder approval. The issuance of preferred stock could make it more
difficult for a third party to acquire us. All of the foregoing could adversely
affect prevailing market prices for our common stock.

OUR COMMON STOCK PRICE IS LIKELY TO BE HIGHLY VOLATILE AS IS TYPICAL OF INTERNET
COMPANIES.

The market price of our common stock has been, and is likely to continue to
be, highly volatile as the stock market in general, and the market for
Internet-related and technology companies in particular, has been highly
volatile. Investors may not be able to resell their shares of our common stock
following periods of volatility because of the market's adverse reaction to
volatility. The trading prices of many technology and Internet-related
companies' stocks have decreased substantially within the last 18 months. The
market downturn and adjustment for the high valuations for internet companies
may not return to the levels of late 1999 and early 2000. We cannot assure you
that our stock will trade at the same levels of other Internet stocks or that
Internet stocks in general will regain their prior market prices. The per share
closing price of Nettaxi's common stock in 2001 ranged from a high of $0.46 as
of June 11, 2001 to a low of $0.085 as of September 21, 2001. In addition, an
active public market for our common stock may not continue.


ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Our headquarters are currently located in a leased facility in Campbell,
California, consisting of approximately 1,790 square feet of office space to
accommodate management, operations, and research and development functions,
which is under a lease that expires at the end of May 2002. We believe that our
current facilities are appropriate to carry out our acquisition strategy and
maintain our limited operations.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We previously announced that, on May 1, 2001 seven shareholders of Nettaxi
filed an action against Nettaxi in the United States District Court for the
Central District of California (Case No. SACV 01-459 AHS). The complaint also
names Robert Rositano, Jr. our Chief Executive Officer, Dean Rositano, our
President, and Glenn Goelz our former Chief Financial Officer as additional
defendants. The complaint alleged that we violated securities laws in connection
with our February 2000 private placement. Six of the plaintiffs purchased shares
of Nettaxi common stock in the February 2000 private placement. Prior to filing
the complaint, the plaintiffs demanded the refund of all of the money invested
in Nettaxi and demanded that the exercise price of the warrants issued in the
private placement be reduced from $4.00 to $0.25 per share. Additionally, prior
to the filing the complaint, Nettaxi was asked to invest capital in a company
affiliated with one of the plaintiffs. In the complaint, the plaintiffs seek
compensatory damages, injunctive relief and fees and interest. Due to factual
misrepresentations in the complaint, we anticipated that an amended complaint
would be filed. The complaint was amended on May 23, 2001. The amended complaint
added three new plaintiffs to the lawsuit. Shortly after filing the amended
complaint, we, pursuant to the rules of the District Court, met with plaintiffs
and pointed out further factual inaccuracies and deficiencies. Plaintiffs then
chose to attempt to amend their complaint for a second time. On October 1, 2001


22

we filed a motion to dismiss the complaint filed by Plaintiffs. In response,
Plaintiffs have filed an opposition to Nettaxi's motion to dismiss and have
sought leave to amend their complaint for a third time. The District Court has
informed the parties that it will rule on the papers, and there will be no
hearing on the motion.

We believe that the allegations made in the complaint are completely
without merit and that this law suit reflects shareholder frustration over the
recent downturn in the stock market. We will defend the action vigorously.

On July 31, 2001 Envision Media filed suit against Nettaxi in the Superior
Court of California, Santa Cruz County (Case No. CV-141408). The complaint
alleges breach of contract and misrepresentation in connection with a Stock
Option and Release Agreement entered into between the parties on January 31,
2000. Under the Stock Option and Release Agreement, Envision Media was given the
option to convert approximately $900,000 in receivables due from Nettaxi into
stock valued at $2.00 per share and also to receive warrants to purchase stock
having an exercise price of $2.76. The agreement provided that Nettaxi was to
file a registration statement registering the shares issuable under the
agreement within 15 days of the execution of the agreement. The agreement also
provided that each party would release the other from any claims arising out of
or in connection with the conversion of Nettaxi's debt and that the portion of
the debt converted was to be deemed paid in full. Nettaxi was unable to file
the registration statement before February 15, 2000. Nevertheless, on March 31,
2000 Envision Media converted the entire balance of the amount due into shares
and warrants. On May 12, 2000 Nettaxi filed a registration statement on Form
S-1 (File No. 333-36826) which included shares and warrants held by Envision
Media. On June 8, 2000 the SEC declared the registration statement Form S-1
effective. Nettaxi filed its answer to the complaint on September 17, 2001.
Nettaxi believes that the allegations made in the complaint are completely
without merit and intends to defend its position vigorously.

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings incidental to our
business. We believe that these pending actions, individually and in the
aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition,
and that adequate provision has been made for the resolution of such actions and
proceedings.


ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS


None.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
MATTERS

Our common stock has been traded on the NASD O-T-C Market Bulletin Board
under the trading symbol "NTXY" since October 12, 1998. Prior to that date, our
common stock was not actively traded in the public market. After consummation
of the merger, we anticipate that such common stock will continue to trade in
the over-the-counter market. The following table sets forth, for the periods
indicated, the high and low bid prices for our common stock as reported by
various Bulletin Board market makers. The quotations do not reflect adjustments
for retail mark-ups, mark-downs, or commissions and may not necessarily
represent actual transactions.

On February 12, 2002, the high and low bid prices per share for our common
stock on the Bulletin Board were $0.225 and $0.200 respectively. As of February
12, 2002, there were 386 stockholders of record who held shares of our common
stock.

DIVIDEND POLICY

To date, no dividends have been declared or paid on any of our capital
stock. We currently intend to retain earnings, if any, to fund the development
and growth of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the


24

foreseeable future. Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the
discretion of our Board of Directors after taking into account various factors,
including our financial condition, operating results, current and anticipated
cash needs and plans for expansion.

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

Set forth in chronological order is information regarding shares of common
stock issued and options and warrants and other convertible securities granted
by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2001. Also included is the
consideration, if any, received by the Company for such shares and options and
information relating to the section of the Securities Act of 1933, or rule of
the Securities and Exchange Commission under which exemption
from registration was claimed.

(1) From January to December, 2001 the Company under its 1998 and 1999 Stock
Option Plans issued options to purchase up to 3,005,000 shares of common stock

OVERVIEW

Nettaxi.com is an Internet marketing portal that provides content and
Internet based services for consumers and businesses. Our web site at
www.nettaxi.com serves as a gathering place for people with shared topics of
interest, as well as an entry point, referred to as a portal, to the Internet.
Through our web site, we provide content addressing a number of targeted
categories. Subscribers to our web site are also provided with access to
enhanced content such as broadband video clips and email accounts. In 1999, we
developed a diversified revenue model under which we provided subscribers with
access to web site hosting services and a broad range of content, and we
provided affiliated businesses with access to a large population of Internet
users for advertising and promotional purposes.

In 2001, Nettaxi faced the challenges of an overall downturn in the
Internet industry and the economy in general. As of December 31, 2001, we had
incurred losses of approximately $36.2 million. The bankruptcy and liquidation
of many of our Internet based customers and suppliers caused us to re-evaluate
our business model. Since the Internet infrastructure is unstable and customer
base financially weak, we took corrective action to significantly decrease our
cash burn and determine the best course of action to maintain and enhance the
value of our company. In this regard, we implemented an acquisition strategy
pursuant to which we sought to identify an appropriate entity with which to
merge, acquire or restructure our current business. Since the announcement of
our acquisition strategy in May 2001, we have evaluated a number of potential
Merger candidates in a wide variety of industries. Of all of these companies, we
believe RAE Systems presents the best fit for our shareholders. We believe the
Merger with RAE Systems is the fruit of our acquisition strategy and that the
Merger will provide us with a new direction that avoids the pitfalls that have
crippled so many Internet businesses.

In June 2001, we reduced our overhead and burn rate by reducing the
salaries of our employees and reducing the number of personnel, marketing
expenses and costs associated with our hosting activities. Our current
management team, consisting of finance and administrative employees is in place
to maintain our operations and consummate the proposed Merger with RAE Systems.

We continue to operate our website, however, we have focused our energies
on our acquisition strategy and therefore have not pursued any revenue
generating activities in the last six months of 2001.


27

Prior to June 2001, we provided web site hosting and Internet connectivity
services for corporate customers. Our services were delivered through a
state-of-the-art Internet data center located in Southern California using a
high-performance Internet backbone network. Customers paid monthly fees for the
professional services utilized, one-time installation fees, and connectivity
charges. These "hosting" revenues were recognized in the period the services
were provided. Hosting revenues were variable, based upon bandwidth usage and
services used, and resulted in operating losses from time to time. In June 2001,
we terminated our significant co-hosting customer contracts effective July 7,
2001. In connection with this, we also discontinued the purchase of bandwidth
and premium services from our third party provider, further reducing monthly
expenditures. The terminations have reduced our operating expenses, and
materially affected our revenues beginning in the third quarter of 2001.

Acquisitions carry numerous risks and uncertainties and we cannot guarantee
that we will be able to successfully integrate any businesses, products,
technologies or personnel that might be acquired in the future.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS; COMPARISON OF THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001
AND 2000

NET REVENUES. Net revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001
were $2.1 million compared with $9.4 million for the twelve months in 2000. The
significant decrease is primarily the result of the substantial reduction of our
operating activities and expenditures in connection with the adoption of our
acquisition strategy and the current economic climate in the Internet industry.
In June 2001, we terminated our significant co-hosting customer contracts
effective July 7, 2001, which materially decreased our revenues beginning in the
third quarter of 2001. The substantial decrease was also the result of
significantly lower advertising revenues recognized in the twelve months ended
December 31, 2001.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2001, three customers each
accounted for greater than 10% of total net revenues for a total of
approximately $1.9 million or 90% of the total revenues. These customers,
Babenet, Whitesand Communications, and Whitehorn Ventures Limited, accounted for
47%, 19%, and 25%, respectively of our total revenues. All three of these
customers were co-hosting customers. For the twelve months ended December 31,
2000, four customers, Babenet, Whitesand Communications, Hearme.com,
Spinrecords.com, each accounted for greater than 10% of total net revenues for a
total of approximately $5.1 million or 54% of the total revenues. In June 2001,
we terminated our significant co-hosting customer contracts effective July 7,
2001, which has materially affected revenues beginning in the third quarter of
2001.

ADVERTISING REVENUES. Advertising revenues for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2001 and 2000 were approximately $0.2 million and approximately
$5.7 million, respectively, which represented 10% and 60%, respectively, of
total net revenues. The decline in absolute dollars resulted from the
substantial reduction of our operating activities and expenditures in connection
with the adoption of our acquisition strategy and the current economic climate
in the Internet industry. The decline was also attributable to the discontinued
use of reciprocal advertising transactions and decreases in the number of


28

advertisers and the decrease in the average rate paid by these advertisers. As a
result of the increased bankruptcy and liquidation trend in the marketplace, we
further tightened our credit terms and loss many of our customers. Also, we
initiated several cost savings strategies in the first quarter of 2001, which
resulted in cancellation of advertising arrangements by our customers that
decided that these new strategies did not meet their criteria for advertising
promotions. Also, in the first quarter of 2001, we terminated our free hosting
arrangements for our citizens, which resulted in decreased page views and
therefore decreased the number of banner advertisements served. We believe that
the revenues from the sale of banner advertisements can no longer justify the
cost of purchasing bandwidth. Reciprocal advertising arrangements accounted for
approximately 0% and 28% of total revenues for the twelve months ended December
31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Reciprocal arrangements were used in our
strategy in developing strategic relationships with other advertisers or service
providers for non-cash media advertising. We no longer utilize these agreements
as the return on investment for these agreements no longer benefits us. We
continue to operate our website and sell advertising products, but these
revenues will be significantly lower than prior periods. We do not expect these
revenues to grow in light of the changing market conditions and the recent
actions taken by us.

HOSTING REVENUES. Our hosting revenues were approximately $1.9 million and
$3.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, which
represented 90% and 40%, of total net revenues, respectively. The decline in
absolute dollars resulted from the substantial reduction of our operating
activities and expenditures in connection with the adoption of our acquisition
strategy and the current economic climate in the Internet industry. For the
twelve months ended December 31, 2001, hosting revenues were a higher percentage
of total net revenue as advertising revenues significantly decreased in the
twelve months ended December 31, 2001. Our services are delivered through a
state-of-the-art Internet data center located in Southern California using a
high-performance Internet backbone network. Customers pay monthly fees for the
professional services utilized, one-time installation fees, and monthly
connectivity charges. These hosting revenues were recognized in the period the
services were provided. We did not receive any one-time installation fees in the
twelve months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. In June 2001, we
terminated our significant co-hosting customer contracts effective July 7, 2001,
which materially affected revenues beginning in the third quarter of 2001.

COST OF OPERATIONS. Cost of operations were approximately $4.3 million and
$7.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively. Cost of operations decreased as a result of the substantial
reduction of our operating activities and expenditures in connection with the
adoption of our acquisition strategy. The decline was also attributable to the
termination of our co-hosting customer contracts which required our purchasing
of bandwidth and services from a third party provider. We have also experienced
a substantial decrease in traffic to our website which resulted in the offset to
the cost of purchasing bandwidth. Beginning in February 2001 we changed our web
hosting provider to Alchemy Communications, a carrier in Southern California.
This new provider provides similar services but at substantial cost saving to
us. We entered into traffic directive arrangements whereas selected web traffic
or page views are diverted to interest specific areas of our website and
advertisements. These arrangements require special tools and costs to third


29

parties. We began these new arrangements in the fourth quarter of 2000, but as
result of our acquisition strategy we terminated these arrangements in July
2001. There were no similar costs in the twelve months ended December 31, 2001.

SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES. Sales and marketing expenses were
approximately $0.9 million and $5.9 million for the twelve months ended December
31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The decline in sales and marketing expenses was
attributable to the substantial reduction of our operating activities and
expenditures in connection with the adoption of our acquisition strategy. The
decline was also attributable to the discontinued use of reciprocal online
advertising arrangements to increase brand awareness and traditional print and
media marketing advertising. We recorded reciprocal advertising expenses in
relation to the reciprocal advertising revenues of approximately $2.2 million
for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000. There were no similar expenses in
2001.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. Research and development expenses were
approximately $0.4 million and $1.6 million for the twelve months ended December
31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The decline in expense was primarily
attributable to the decrease in salaries expense for personnel as the result of
decreased personnel. We terminated all research and development personnel in the
beginning of the second quarter 2001. Currently, we have no hiring plan in
effect for replacement of these individuals. We plan to utilize consultants for
any technical projects. As of October 2001, we have engaged two technical
consultants for short-term projects.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative expenses
were approximately $5.5 million and $5.0 million for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. General and administrative costs
consisted primarily of salaries and related costs for executives,
administrative, and finance personnel, as well as legal, accounting and other
professional service fees. In addition to the above we recognized in 2001 a
write-down of approximately $823,000 due to impairment of equipment, purchased
technology and other intangibles, and a loss on disposal of certain equipment of
$327,600 related to our move to smaller facilities in the June 2001. Due to the
market conditions, we were unable to sell the capital equipment and the costs
for storage and moving the equipment would have exceeded any gain realized on
the sale. In June 2001 we negotiated an early termination of our facilities
lease and recognized a one-time charge of approximately $94,000, which included
the forfeited deposit. This fee was necessary as a result of the market
conditions in the San Francisco Bay Area. We entered into a facilities lease of
smaller space in Campbell, California. We believe that this space will be
sufficient to conduct our current activities. We also recognized approximately
$141,000 in one-time costs associated with the termination of our intended
acquisition with LookupGuide.com. The above additional expenses were offset with
decreases in personnel costs as a result of termination of personnel in the
first and second quarter of 2001.

INTEREST INCOME. Interest income was approximately $447,900 and $703,800
for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The higher
average cash balance in the twelve months ended December 31, 2000, was the
result of the issuance of common stock in a private placement offering in
February 2000 for which cash proceeds became available in March 2000.


30

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense was approximately $9,400 and $4.7
million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
For the year 2000 period, the interest expense was primarily the result of
non-cash deemed interest expense related to the implied beneficial conversion
feature and the value of warrants issued in connection with the settlement
agreement that we reached with the holder of the convertible debentures issued
on March 31, 1999. The convertible note was fully converted in the second
quarter of 2000 and therefore no interest expense was recorded on this note in
2001.

INCOME TAXES. The provision for income taxes for the years ended December
31, 2001 and 2000 consisted of minimum state taxes of $2,400 and $1,600,
respectively. At December 31, 2001, we had net operating loss carryforwards
available to reduce future taxable income that aggregate approximately $26.7
million for Federal income tax purposes. These benefits begin to expire in 2017.
We also had California net operation loss carryforwards in the amount of $14.2
million, which may be applied to future taxable income until these benefits
begin to expire in 2002. Our ability to utilize the net operating loss
carryforwards is dependent upon our ability to generate taxable income in future
periods and may be limited due to restrictions imposed under Federal and state
laws upon change in ownership. If we complete an acquisition consistent with
our acquisition strategy, we may be unable to apply these net operating loss
carryforwards at all.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS; COMPARISON OF THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000
AND 1999

NET REVENUES. Net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2000 increased
87% to approximately $9.4 million from $5.0 million for the year ended December
31, 1999. The absolute dollar increase is the result of an increase in revenues
from the corporate web hosting and the increase in advertising revenues.
Advertising revenues included third party revenues from both traditional and
internet related advertisers which also includes reciprocal arrangements. For
the year ended December 31, 2000, four customers each accounted for greater than
10% of total net revenues for a total of approximately $5.1 million or 54% of
the total revenues. These customers, Babenet, SpinRecords.com, Whitesand
Communications, and Hearme.com, accounted for 20%, 13%, 11% and 10%,
respectively of our total revenues. For the year ended December 31, 1999, one
customer, Whitesand Communications, accounted for greater than 10% of total net
revenues. The loss of any one of all of these customers could have a material
adverse affect on our revenue.

ADVERTISING REVENUES. Advertising revenues for the year ended December 31,
2000 and 1999 were approximately $5.7 million and approximately $2.7 million,
respectively, which represented 60% and 53%, respectively, of total net
revenues. The year over year increase in absolute dollars resulted from an
increase in reciprocal advertising transactions and increases in the number of
advertisers as well as the increase in average contract commitments of these
advertisers as a result of increased web traffic to our web site. Reciprocal
advertising arrangements are exchanges of similar services between the Company
and the advertisers. These arrangements accounted for approximately 28% and 7%
of total revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Reciprocal arrangements for the twelve months ended December 31,
2000 are the result of the Company's strategy in developing strategic
relationships with other advertisers or service providers for non-cash media
advertising.


31

TRANSACTION PROCESSING FEES. There were no transaction processing fees for
the year ended December 31, 2000. Transaction processing fees were approximately
$1.29 million for the year ended December 31, 1999, which represented 26%, of
total net revenues. Transactions fees consisted of revenue derived from credit
card evaluations and from the processing of on-line credit card transactions.
The 1999 revenue is attributable to the Merger with Plus Net, Inc. in May 1999.
The contract through which these fees have been derived terminated in December,
1999 and we do not expect revenues of this type to be significant in future
periods.

HOSTING REVENUES. Our hosting revenues were approximately $3.7 million and
$945,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, which
represented 40% and 19%, of total net revenues, respectively. For the year
ended December 31, 2000, we recognized hosting revenues for the twelve months as
compared to only six months in the year ended December 31, 1999. In the third
quarter of 1999, we began providing internet hosting and connectivity services
for corporate customers. Our services are delivered through a state-of-the-art
Internet data center located in Southern California using a high-performance
Internet backbone network. Customers pay monthly fees for the professional
services utilized, one-time installation fees, and monthly connectivity charges.
These "hosting" revenues were recognized in the period the services were
provided. The Company has experienced strong revenue growth in the internet web
hosting for corporate customers, but does not expect this growth to continue at
the current rate, or that the Company will sustain profitability from this
business segment. Additionally, the Company cannot assure that it can increase
the number of corporate customers or maintain the current customer base. As
previously described, two web-hosting customers accounted for more than 10% of
total net revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000.

COST OF OPERATIONS. Cost of operations were approximately $7.3 million and
$4.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Cost
of operations increased 83%. Approximately 85% of the increase is the result of
additional expenses related to costs for co-location (Internet connection
charges) expenses. In the third quarter of 1999, we began providing Internet
connectivity services to corporate customers and required purchases of
additional bandwidth to service these customers. These costs are expected to
continue to increase as our web traffic increases and our corporate customer
require additional bandwidth for our "citizens". For the year ended December
31, 2000, the Company recognized hosting expenses for twelve months as compared
to only six months in the year ended December 31, 1999. Approximately 6% of the
increase is related to increased depreciation expense for capital purchased in
1999. Approximately 6% of the increase is related to the costs for consultants
to improve our website. Separately, during the third quarter ended September
30, 2000, we also initiated cost effective measurement tools to limit the use of
unauthorized excessive bandwidth or charging the individual users for the use of
additional bandwidth. These cost measures resulted in cost savings to the
Company in the third and fourth quarter of year 2000. We cannot be assured that
these cost saving measures will continue to result in substantial savings or any
savings at all.

SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES. Sales and marketing expenses were
approximately $5.9 million and $4.8 million for the twelve month periods ended
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Sales and marketing expenses


32

consisted primarily of advertising, including co-branding and reciprocal,
salaries of our sales and marketing personnel and related costs, marketing, and
promotion costs. Approximately $1.9 million of the net increase is the result
of the redirected marketing approach for brand awareness implemented in the
third quarter of 2000. This consisted of using reciprocal online advertising
arrangements to increase brand awareness rather than the traditional print and
media marketing approach. The Company recorded reciprocal advertising expenses
in relation to the reciprocal advertising revenues of $2.2 million for the year
ended December 31, 2000 compared to approximately $0.3 million for the year
ended December 31, 1999. The Company utilizes reciprocal advertising
arrangements as an inexpensive advertising media for increasing brand awareness.
There can be no assurance that these increased expenditures will result in
increased visitors to our web site or additional revenues in the future. This
increase was offset by a reduction of approximately $0.8 million reduction in
spending on traditional marketing media expenditures.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. Research and development expenses were
$1.6 million and $2.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 and
1999, respectively. The 28% decrease was primarily attributable to the lower
utilization of consultants by the Company and decrease in average number of
technical personnel during the year 2000. Approximately $0.6 million of the
decrease was related to the lower utilization of consultants and $0.2 million of
the decrease was related to the decrease in recruiting fees paid to hire new
employees. The above two costs were offset by an approximately $0.3 million
increase which was related to increased depreciation expense for capital
equipment. The Company has experienced a difficulty in its ability to recruit
and retain technical personnel as a result of the current economic prosperity
and high cost of living in Silicon Valley and expects this condition to have a
continuous impact on the ability of the Company to retain and hire additional
technical personnel.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative expenses
were $5.0 million and $3.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000
and 1999, respectively. General and administrative costs consisted primarily of
salaries and related costs for executives, administrative, and finance
personnel, as well as legal, accounting and other professional service fees.
Approximately $0.6 million of the increase in general and administrative
expenses were primarily attributable to amortization of deferred compensation
expense related to stock, warrants and options granted during the year to
various consultants for the services. Approximately $0.4 million of the
increase was the result of additional salaries and personnel costs.
Approximately $0.4 million of the increase is related to higher insurance costs
associated with being a public company. Also, the increase is the result of
legal fees related to the settlement agreement with the holder of convertible
debentures. The Company also recorded approximately $500,000 provision for
uncollectible accounts receivable. The Company expects that due to the highly
volatile market conditions for internet related and other advertising companies,
the provision for bad debt may be higher in the future. The above increases
were offset by the decrease in expenditures related to the Merger with Plus Net,
Inc. in 1999.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Net interest expense was $4.0 million and $0.4 million
for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. For the year 1999
period the net interest expense was primarily due to the convertible promissory


33

note that was issued on March 31, 1999 and to amortization of deferred interest
related to warrants issued in conjunction with the convertible promissory note,
offset by interest income. For the year 2000 period, the net interest expense
was primarily the result of deemed interest expense related to the convertible
debenture issued on March 31, 1999. We recognized deemed interest expense of
approximately $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2000. This non-cash
interest expense resulted from the implied beneficial conversion feature and the
value of warrants issued in connection with the settlement agreement that we
reached with the holder of the convertible debenture.

INCOME TAXES. The provision for income taxes for the year ended December
31, 2000 consisted of minimum state taxes. For the year ended December 31, 1999
we recorded a tax provision which related to earnings made by PlusNet, Inc.
during its fiscal period before our merger. At December 31, 2000, we had net
operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income that
aggregate approximately $25.1 million for Federal income tax purposes. These
benefits begin to expire in 2017. The Company also had a California net
operation loss carryforwards in the amount of $13.4 million which may be applied
to future taxable income until these benefits begin to expire in 2002. Our
ability to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards are dependent upon our
ability to generate taxable income in future periods and may be limited due to
restrictions imposed under Federal and state laws upon change in ownership.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of December 31, 2001, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $8.6 million, compared to approximately $13.9 million at December
31, 2000. Net cash used in operating activities equaled approximately $5.3
million and $8.4 million for the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2001
and 2000, respectively. The decline in cash used was related to the decrease of
approximately $5.8 million in net loss for the twelve months ended December 31,
2001 compared to the same twelve months ended December 31, 2000. However, in
2000 we incurred approximately $4.6 million of non-cash interest expense
relating to a settlement agreement and issuance of warrants. Net adjustment
related to customer receivables amounted to approximately $1.7 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $26,400 and
$744,100 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Substantially all of the cash used in investing activities for both periods was
primarily related to the purchase of capital equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $0 and $22.0
million for the twelve months period ended December 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively. Net cash provided by financing activities in 2000 consisted
primarily of net proceeds from the issuance of our common stock.

We incurred net losses of approximately $8.6 million and $11.4 million for
the twelve months ended December 31, 2001, and 2000, respectively. At December
31, 2001, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $36.2 million. The net
losses and accumulated deficit resulted from the significant operational,


34

infrastructure and other costs incurred in the development and marketing of our
services and the fact that revenues failed to keep pace with such costs.
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2000, we initiated cost reductions in all
areas of operations. We are continuing to review and reduce all non-essential
expenditures while we pursue our acquisition strategy.

We do not have any long-term commitments that currently require a specified
capital budget other than normal operations. We believe that current cash, and
cash equivalents would be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash
needs for at least the next 12 months if the Merger with RAE Systems were not to
take place. The obligations of RAE Systems to close the Merger are subject to,
among other things, our net cash being at least $7,500,000. If we do not have
$7,500,000 we may be forced to seek additional capital from outside sources.
There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on
terms acceptable to us, if at all. The sale of additional equity or convertible
debt securities could result in additional dilution to our stockholders.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 1999, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission
issued its Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition". Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 provides the SEC staff's views in applying generally
accepted accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 is effective for the fourth fiscal quarter of fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1999. We believe our current revenue
recognition policies comply with the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin No.
101.

In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Interpretation (Interpretation) No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions
involving Stock Compensation, an Interpretation of ABP Opinion No. 25", which
became effective July 1, 2000. Interpretation No. 44 clarifies (a) the
definition of employee for purposes of applying Opinion 25, (b) the criteria for
determining whether a stock compensation plan qualifies as a noncompensatory
plan, (c) the accounting consequences of various modifications to the terms of a
previously fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange
of stock compensation awards in a business combination. Adoption of the
provisions of the Interpretation had no significant impact on our financial
statements.

In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instrument
and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No.
133, which amends SFAS No. 133 to be effective for all fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, SFAS No. 133 was amended by SFAS No. 138,
Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which
amended or modified certain issues discussed in SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 138 is
also effective for all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133
and SFAS No. 138 establish accounting and reporting standards requiring that
every derivative instrument be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset
or liability measured at its fair value. The statements also require that
changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings
unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. The Company does not engage
in derivative instruments or hedging activities. Accordingly, there was no
impact on the Company's financial statements from the adoption of SFAS No. 133
and SFAS No. 138.


35

In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (SFAS 141), Business Combinations,
which supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 16, Business
Combinations. SFAS 141 eliminates the pooling-of-interests method of accounting
for business combinations and modifies the application of the purchase
accounting method. The elimination of the pooling-of-interests method is
effective for transactions initiated after June 30, 2001. The remaining
provision of SFAS 141 will be effective for transactions accounted for using the
purchase method that are completed after June 30, 2001.

In July 2001, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 142 (SFAS 142), Goodwill and
Intangible Assets, which supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, Intangible Assets. Under
SFAS 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized
but are tested for impairment annually using the fair value approach, except in
certain circumstances, and whether there is an impairment indicator, other
intangible assets will continue to be valued and amortized over their estimated
lives; in-process research and development will continue to be written off
immediately; all acquired goodwill must be assigned to reporting units for
purposes of impairment testing and segment reporting and existing goodwill will
no longer be subject to amortization. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 are
required to be applied starting with fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2001.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143 (SFAS 143) Accounting for
Obligations Associated with the Retirement of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 143
addresses financial accounting and reporting for the retirement obligation of an
asset. SFAS 143 states that companies should recognize the asset retirement
cost, at its fair value, as part of the cost asset and classify the accrued
amount as a liability in the balance sheet. The asset retirement liability is
then accreted to the ultimate payout as interest expense. The initial
measurement of the liability would be subsequently updated for revised estimates
of the discounted cash outflows. SFAS 143 will be effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company has not yet determined the effect
SFAS 143 will have on its financial position, results of operations, or cash
flows.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144 (SFAS 144) Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 144 supersedes the SFAS No.
121 by requiring that one accounting model to be used for long-lived assets to
be disposed of by sale, whether previously held and used or newly acquired, and
by broadening the presentation of discontinued operation to include more
disposal transactions. SFAS 144 will be effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2001. The Company has not yet determined the effect SFAS 144
will have on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

MARKET RISK

As of December 31, 2001, we did not have any long term debt obligations.
Therefore, an immediate 10% increase in market interest rates would not have a
material adverse effect on our financial position. We currently do not have any
material market rate risks. We could be exposed to market risk related to any
debt obligations for financing working capital and capital equipment
requirements in the future. Historically, we have financed such requirements
from the issuance of both preferred and common stock. We continue to consider
financing alternatives, which may include the incurrence of long term
indebtedness. Actual capital requirements may vary based upon the timing and
success of the expansion of our operations. We believe that based on the terms
and maturities of any future debt obligations that the market risk would be
minimal.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

Due to relatively low levels of inflation in 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 and
2001, inflation has not had a significant effect on our results of operations.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

Our financial statements, schedules and supplementary data, as listed under
Item 14, appear in a separate section of this report beginning on page F-1.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS AND TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND CHANGE OF CONTROL
ARRANGEMENTS

EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS. On August 1, 1998 Nettaxi Online
Communities, Inc. entered into executive employment agreements with Robert A.
Rositano, Jr. and Dean Rositano, and these agreements continued in effect after
the reorganization with Swan Valley Snowmobiles, Inc. Pursuant to the terms of
their individual executive employment agreements, Robert A. Rositano, Jr. is to
perform the duties Chief Executive Officer and serve as a member of the board of
directors, and Dean Rositano is to perform the duties of President and serve as
a member of the board of directors. Each executive employment agreement provides
for an annual base salary which may be increased by the board of directors, in
its discretion. The base salary also is to increase by ten percent per annum,
which increase shall be cumulative for each year. In connection with the
adoption of our acquisition strategy in May 2001, each executive officer
voluntarily agreed to accept reduced base salaries of $150,000. Under the
executive employment agreements, each executive is also eligible for annual
bonus compensation in the minimum amount of $50,000 up to a maximum amount equal
to the base salary then payable. The board of directors is to determine the
amount of the annual bonus based upon performance targets established by the
board of directors. In 2001, each executive received the minimum bonus
compensation payable.

Under the executive employment agreements, Robert A. Rositano, Jr. and Dean
Rositano each received warrants to purchase up to 883,952 shares of the common
stock of Nettaxi Online Communities. The warrants were to vest over three years
and vesting was accelerated upon the reorganization with Swan Valley. Robert A.
Rositano, Jr. and Dean Rositano each exercised their warrants in September,
1998. They have each been granted registration rights with respect to shares of
common stock issued upon exercise of the warrants and they have each waived any


39

such rights with respect to this registration statement. Each executive is
eligible to receive three weeks paid vacation for the first year of employment
and four weeks per year thereafter. They are also eligible to participate in the
health, life insurance, medical, retirement and other benefit programs which we
may offer from time to time. Each executive receives a car allowance in an
amount not to exceed $600 per month plus insurance and costs of repair and may
be reimbursed for other reasonable expenses incurred during the course of
performing their duties.

The term of the executive employment agreements is four years and they are
automatically renewed for successive periods of one year unless terminated prior
to such renewal. We may terminate either executive at any time with or without
cause. The term "cause" is defined in the executive employment agreements. If
any executive is terminated without cause, he is to receive severance pay equal
to the base salary for the remainder of the term, minimum bonus plus any pro
rata bonus in excess of the minimum bonus, pre payment of all automobile
allowance for the remaining period of the term and continued coverage for life,
health and disability insurance for the remainder of the term. These amounts
shall be due in one lump sum payment three days following the termination of his
employment without cause. If there is a "change in control" with respect to
Nettaxi, the executives may terminate their executive employment agreements and
be entitled to severance in the amount of three years of annual benefits to be
realized in accordance with the terms of the executive employment agreements,
payable in one lump sum. "Change in control" is defined in the executive
employment agreements as any change of equity such that more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of our outstanding shares are transferred to a third party,
debt ownership such that more than 50% of our outstanding shares are transferred
to a third party, or a sale of 70% or more of our assets.

The executive employment agreements also contain covenants restricting the
disclosure of our confidential information, the solicitation of our employees or
agents and the ability of the executives to engage in competing activities with
us.

In the course of the previous year, as a result of our limited human
resources, both executives have performed other responsibilities not necessarily
within the scope of the definition of their positions under the executive
employment agreements.

BOARD COMMITTEES

The Compensation Committee of the board of directors determines the
salaries and incentive compensation of our officers and provides recommendations
for the salaries and incentive compensation of our other employees. The
compensation committee also administers our 1998 Stock Option Plan. There is
currently one member of the Compensation Committee, Mr. Garroni. We are
currently seeking qualified individuals to join our board of directors and serve
on our audit committee.

The Audit Committee of the board of directors reviews, acts on and reports
to the board of directors with respect to various auditing and accounting
matters, including the selection of our independent auditors, the scope of the
annual audits, fees to be paid to the auditors, the performance of our
independent auditors and our accounting practices. Mr. Garroni is currently the


40

only member of the audit committee. We are currently seeking qualified
individuals to join our board of directors and serve on our audit committee.

The board of directors does not have a nominating committee.

DIRECTORS' COMPENSATION

Directors who are also our employees receive no compensation for serving on
the board of directors. With respect to directors who are not employees, we
intend to reimburse such directors for all travel and other expenses incurred in
connection with attending meetings of the board of directors and any committees
of the board of directors. Non-employee directors are also eligible to receive
grants of non-qualified stock options under our 1998 Stock Option Plan and 1999
Stock Option Plan. We intend to grant our non-employee directors, subject to
shareholder ratification, options to purchase common stock under our stock
option plans to provide us with an effective way to recruit and retain qualified
individuals to serve as members of the board of directors.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

We did not have a Compensation Committee or other committee of the board of
directors performing similar functions during the fiscal years ending December
31, 1997 and 1998. Messrs. Robert A. and Dean Rositano are each officers of
Nettaxi and, as members of the board of directors, participated in deliberations
of the board of directors relating to the compensation of our executive
officers. As indicated above, the board of directors established a Compensation
Committee as of May 3, 1999.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires
our officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a class
of our capital stock, to file reports of ownership and changes in their
ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Officers, directors and
greater than ten-percent shareholders are required to furnish us with copies of
all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms received by us, or
written representations from certain reporting persons that no Forms 5 were
required for such persons, we believe that, during the last fiscal year, all
filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten
percent beneficial owners were complied with except that reports on Form 4 were
filed late by Messrs. Robert A. Rositano, Jr. and Dean Rositano.

(1) No SARs were granted to either of the named executives during 2001. Each warrant and option represents the
right to purchase one share of our common stock. In 2001, we granted employees options to purchase an aggregate of
1,300,000 shares of our common stock. The options shown may terminate before their expiration dates if the
optionee's status as an employee is terminated or upon the optionee's death or disability.

(2) Robert A. Rositano, Jr. and Dean Rositano were each granted options to purchase 380,000 shares of our
common stock under two option agreements. Under each agreement, the options expire in twelve equal quarterly
installments.

(3) The amounts indicated in the columns under the heading "Potential Realizable Value at Assumed Annual Rates
of Stock Price Appreciation for Option Term" Amounts represent hypothetical gains that could be achieved for the
respective warrants and options if exercised at their end of their respective terms. The 5% and 10% assumed annual
rates of compounded stock price appreciation are mandated by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and
do not represent our estimate or projection of the future prices of the common stock. Actual gains, if any, on any
exercises of warrants and options are dependent upon the future performance of our common stock and overall stock
market conditions. The amounts reflected in the table may not necessarily be achieved.

The following table sets forth information with respect to the Named
Executives concerning their exercise of warrants during 2001 and exercisable and

$0.135 at December 31, 2001, the closing price for our common stock on that date as reported by
various market makers for our common stock on the NASD O-T-C Market Bulletin Board. Neither of
the Named Executives have options to purchase shares of common stock which were in the money at
year end.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

1999 STOCK OPTION PLAN. Our 1999 Stock Option Plan was adopted by the board
of directors in January 2000, and amended the plan to increase the number of
shares reserved for issuance under the plan in April, 2000. It has not been
presented to our stockholders for ratification. The following description of our
1999 Stock Option Plan is a summary and qualified in its entirety by the text of
the plan, which is filed as an exhibit to this annual report on Form 10-K. The
purpose of the 1999 Stock Option Plan is to enhance our profitability and
stockholder value by enabling us to offer stock based incentives to employees,
directors and consultants. The 1999 Stock Option Plan authorizes the grant of
options to purchase shares of common stock to employees, directors and
consultants of Nettaxi and its affiliates. Under the 1999 Stock Option Plan, we
may grant incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and non-qualified stock options. However, options
granted under the plan may not qualify as incentive stock options because our
plan was not presented for shareholder ratification.

The number of shares available for options under the 1999 Stock Option Plan
was initially 3,300,000. The board of directors amended the plan to increase the
number of shares available for options to 8,900,000. As of December 31, 2001,
8,333 shares had been issued as a result of the exercise of options previously
granted under the 1999 Stock Option Plan, 3,053,000 shares of common stock were
subject to outstanding options and 5,838,667 shares were available for future
grants. The exercise prices of the outstanding options ranged from $0.13 to
$2.44. We have registered 3,300,000 of the shares subject to issuance under our
1999 Stock Option Plan, pursuant to our registration statement filed on Form S-8
(File No. 333-32678).

The 1999 Stock Option Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of
the board. Subject to the provisions of the 1999 Stock Option Plan, the
Compensation Committee has authority to determine the employees, directors and
consultants of Nettaxi who are to be awarded options and the terms of such
awards, including the number of shares subject to such option, the fair market
value of the common stock subject to options, the exercise price per
share and other terms.

Incentive stock options must have an exercise price equal to at least 100%
of the fair market value of a share on the date of the award and generally
cannot have a duration of more than 10 years. If the grant is to a stockholder
holding more than 10% of our voting stock, the exercise price must be at least
110% of the fair market value on the date of grant. Terms and conditions of
awards are set forth in written agreements between Nettaxi and the respective
option holders. Awards under the 1999 Stock Option Plan may not be made after
the tenth anniversary of the date of its adoption but awards granted before that
date may extend beyond that date.

If the employment with Nettaxi of the holder of an incentive stock option
is terminated for any reason other than as a result of the holder's death or
disability or for "cause" as defined in the 1999 Stock Option Plan, the holder
may exercise the option, to the extent exercisable on the date of termination of
employment, until the earlier of the option's specified expiration date and 90
days after the date of termination. If an option holder dies or becomes
disabled, both incentive and non-qualified stock options may generally be


45

exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date of death or disability, by the
option holder or the option holder's survivors until the earlier of the option's
specified termination date and one year after the date of death or disability.

Optionees have no rights as stockholders with respect to shares subject to
option prior to the issuance of shares pursuant to the exercise thereof. Options
issued to employees under the 1999 Stock Option Plan shall expire no later than
ten years after the date of grant. An option becomes exercisable at such time
and for such amounts as determined at the discretion of the board of directors
or the Compensation Committee at the time of the grant of the option. An
optionee may exercise a part of the option from the date that part first becomes
exercisable until the option expires. The purchase price for shares to be issued
to an employee upon his exercise of an option is determined by the board of
directors or the Compensation Committee on the date the option is granted. The
purchase price is payable in full in cash, by promissory note, by net exercise
or by delivery of shares of our common stock when the option is exercised. The
1999 Stock Option Plan provides for adjustment as to the number and kinds of
shares covered by the outstanding options and the option price therefor to give
effect to any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other
reorganization of or by Nettaxi.

1998 STOCK OPTION PLAN. Our 1998 Stock Option Plan was adopted by the
board of directors, and ratified and approved by our stockholders, as of
September 29, 1998. The following description of our 1998 Stock Option Plan is a
summary and qualified in its entirety by the text of the plan, which is filed as
an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The
purpose of the 1998 Stock Option Plan is to enhance our profitability and
stockholder value by enabling us to offer stock based incentives to employees,
directors and consultants. The 1998 Stock Option Plan authorizes the grant of
options to purchase shares of common stock to employees, directors and
consultants of Nettaxi and its affiliates. Under the 1998 Stock Option Plan, we
may grant incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and non-qualified stock options. Incentive stock
options may only be granted our employees.

The number of shares available for options under the 1998 Stock Option Plan
is 3,000,000. As of December 31, 2000, 4,998 shares had been issued as the
result of the exercise of options previously granted under the 1998 Stock Option
Plan, 2,525,000 shares were subject to outstanding options and 470,002 shares
were available for future grants. The exercise prices of the outstanding options
ranged from $0.13 to $14.875. The options under the 1998 Stock Option Plan vest
over varying lengths of time pursuant to various option agreements that we have
entered into with the grantees of such options. We have registered the shares
subject to issuance under our 1998 Stock Option Plan, pursuant to the Securities
Act of 1933, pursuant to our registration statement on Form S-8 (File No.
333-32678).

The 1998 Stock Option Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of
the board. Subject to the provisions of the 1998 Stock Option Plan, the
Compensation Committee has authority to determine the employees, directors and
consultants of Nettaxi who are to be awarded options and the terms of such
awards, including the number of shares subject to such option, the fair market
value of the common stock subject to options, the exercise price per share and
other terms.


46

Incentive stock options must have an exercise price equal to at least 100%
of the fair market value of a share on the date of the award and generally
cannot have a duration of more than 10 years. If the grant is to a stockholder
holding more than 10% of our voting stock, the exercise price must be at least
110% of the fair market value on the date of grant. Terms and conditions of
awards are set forth in written agreements between Nettaxi and the respective
option holders. Awards under the 1998 Stock Option Plan may not be made after
the tenth anniversary of the date of its adoption but awards granted before that
date may extend beyond that date.

If the employment with Nettaxi of the holder of an incentive stock option
is terminated for any reason other than as a result of the holder's death or
disability or for "cause" as defined in the 1998 Stock Option Plan, the holder
may exercise the option, to the extent exercisable on the date of termination of
employment, until the earlier of the option's specified expiration date and 90
days after the date of termination. If an option holder dies or becomes
disabled, both incentive and non-qualified stock options may generally be
exercised, to the extent exercisable on the date of death or disability, by the
option holder or the option holder's survivors until the earlier of the option's
specified termination date and one year after the date of death or disability.

Optionees have no rights as stockholders with respect to shares subject to
option prior to the issuance of shares pursuant to the exercise thereof. Options
issued to employees under the 1998 Stock Option Plan shall expire no later than
ten years after the date of grant. An option becomes exercisable at such time
and for such amounts as determined at the discretion of the board of directors
or the Compensation Committee at the time of the grant of the option. An
optionee may exercise a part of the option from the date that part first becomes
exercisable until the option expires. The purchase price for shares to be issued
to an employee upon his exercise of an option is determined by the board of
directors or the Compensation Committee on the date the option is granted. The
purchase price is payable in full in cash, by promissory note, by net exercise
or by delivery of shares of our common stock when the option is exercised. The
1998 Stock Option Plan provides for adjustment as to the number and kinds of
shares covered by the outstanding options and the option price therefor to give
effect to any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination or other
reorganization of or by Nettaxi.

401(K) SAVINGS PLAN. Effective June 1, 1999 we instituted the Nettaxi
401(k) Savings Plan. Eligible employees may begin making deferrals under the
401(k) Savings Plan. The 401(k) Savings Plan is intended to be a qualified plan
under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a), with a cash or deferred option
governed by Section 401(k) Savings of the Internal Revenue Code. Employees may
elect to defer their eligible current compensation up to the statutorily and
401(k) Savings Plan prescribed limits and have the amount of such deferral
contributed to the 401(k) Savings Plan. Contributions to the 401(k) Savings Plan
are invested in the investment funds described in the 401(k) Savings Plan.

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENTS

We have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and
officers. These agreements provide, in general, that we shall indemnify and
hold harmless such directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law
against any judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and expenses incurred


47

in connection with, or in any way arising out of, any claim, action or
proceeding against, or affecting, such directors and officers resulting from,
relating to or in any way arising out of, the service of such persons as our
directors and officers. Directors and officers are entitled to the benefits of
the limitation of liability provided under our charter documents and the laws of
the State of Nevada.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

The following describes transactions to which we were or are a party and in
which any of our directors, officers, or significant stockholders, or members of
the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had or has a direct or
indirect material interest.

In March 2000, we granted Robert Speicher, our former Vice President of
Sales and Marketing, options to purchase up to 150,000 shares of common stock
under our 1999 Stock Option Plan. The exercise price for these options was not


49

less than the fair market value on the date of grant. The right to purchase the
shares accrued in 12 equal quarterly installments. Mr. Speicher's employment
with Nettaxi ceased in 2001 and he received a payment in the amount of $260,000.

In October 1999, we granted Glenn Goelz, our former chief financial
officer, options to purchase up to 250,000 shares of common stock under the 1998
Stock Option Plan. In January 2000, we granted Mr. Goelz additional options to
purchase up to 112,000 shares of common stock under our 1999 Stock Option Plan.
The exercise price for these options was not less than the fair market value on
the date of grant. The right to purchase 12,000 of the options issued were
vested on the date of grant and the right to purchase the remaining shares
vested in 12 equal quarterly installments. In February 2000, we granted Mr.
Goelz, additional options to purchase up to 168,000 shares of common stock under
our 1999 Stock Option Plan. The exercise price for these options was not less
than the fair market value on the date of grant and the remainder accrued in 12
quarterly installments. As of April 30, 2000, Mr. Goelz resigned and any shares
not vested on the date of his resignation terminated automatically.

Mr. Brian Stroh, our former Vice President of Information Services, was
granted options to purchase 12,000 and 124,000 shares of common stock,
respectively, under two option agreements. Under each agreement, the options
were to vest in 12 equal quarterly installments beginning on the date of grant.
Mr. Stroh resigned as the Vice President of Information Services and as an
employee of Nettaxi.com on November 9, 2000. Therefore, Mr. Stroh's options to
purchase our common stock expired on February 9, 2001.

As previously described, we have an agreement with Alchemy Communications,
pursuant to which Alchemy Communications hosts the servers that support our web
site. Mr. Andrew Garroni, a member of our board of directors, Mr. Garroni is a
member of the board of directors of Alchemy Communications and is also the
Secretary of Alchemy Communications.

On October 30, 2000, we entered into a consulting agreement with Mr.
Michael Gardner, the beneficial owner of 6.6% of our outstanding common stock.
Under the agreement, Mr. Gardner was to perform certain consulting services
specified in the agreement. As compensation for his services, Mr. Gardner
received warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of our common stock, having an
exercise price of $0.35 per share.

On May 7, 2001 Nettaxi entered into an additional consulting agreement with
Baytree Capital Associates, LLC under which Baytree identified and evaluated
acquisition candidates, conducted due diligence and otherwise advised the
company with respect to the structuring of a transaction with acquisition
candidates. Mr. Michael Gardner is a principal member of Baytree. This agreement
was superceded in August 2001 when Nettaxi entered into a new agreement with
Baytree for the same purposes. To date, Baytree has not received compensation
under this agreement.

We believe that all of the transactions set forth above were made on terms
no less favorable to us than could have been obtained from unaffiliated third
parties. We intend that all future transactions, including loans, between us and
our officers, directors, principal stockholders and their affiliates will be
approved by a majority of the board of directors, including a majority of the


50

independent and disinterested outside directors on the board of directors, and
be on terms no less favorable to us than could be obtained from unaffiliated
third parties.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To The Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Nettaxi.com

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Nettaxi.com as
of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2001. 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 auditing standards generally accepted
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
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.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, on January 9, 2002,
Nettaxi.com entered into a merger agreement under which Nettaxi.com, subject to
shareholder approval, agreed to merge with RAE Systems, Inc. If the merger is
consummated, Nettaxi.com will abandon its business model and adopt the business
model of RAE Systems, Inc.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Nettaxi.com as of
December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2001, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================

1. SUMMARY OF The Company
ACCOUNTING
POLICIES Nettaxi.com (formerly Nettaxi, Inc and formerly Swan Valley
Snowmobiles, Inc.), the Company, is a Nevada Corporation,
which was incorporated on October 26, 1995.

On September 29, 1998 the Company completed the acquisition
of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Nettaxi OnLine
Communities, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and changed its
name to Nettaxi, Inc. (now Nettaxi.com). For accounting
purposes, the acquisition has been treated as the
acquisition of the Company by Nettaxi OnLine Communities,
Inc. with Nettaxi OnLine Communities, Inc. as the acquiror.

Nettaxi.com is an Internet marketing portal that provides a
wide range of content and Internet based services for
consumers and businesses. Subscribers to the Company's web
site, www.nettaxi.com, are also provided with access to
enhanced content such as broadband video clips and e-mail
accounts. In 1999, the Company developed a diversified
revenue model under which it provided subscribers with
access to web site hosting services an a broad range of
content, and provided affiliated businesses with access to a
large population of Internet users for advertising and
promotional purposes. The Company also provided web site
hosting and Internet connectivity services for corporate
customers.

The Company's principal executive offices are located in
Campbell, California.

Beginning in April 2001, the bankruptcy and liquidation of
many of the Company's Internet based customers and suppliers
caused management to re-evaluate the Company's business
model. Since the Internet infrastructure was unstable and
customer base financially weak, management began to take
corrective action to significantly decrease cash burn and
determine the best course of action to maintain and enhance
the value of the Company. In this regard, management
implemented an acquisition strategy pursuant to which it has
been seeking to identify an appropriate entity with which to
merge, acquire or restructure the Company's current
business.


F-6

NETTAXI.COM



NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================

Beginning in May 2001, management reduced the Company's
overhead and burn rate by reducing the salaries of employees
and reducing the number of personnel, marketing expenses and
costs associated with the Company's hosting activities.
Effective July 7, 2001, the Company terminated its
significant co-hosting customer contracts. In connection
with this, it also discontinued the purchase of bandwidth
and premium services from its third party provider. The
terminations reduced operating expenses, and materially
affected the Company's revenues beginning in the third
quarter of 2001.

The Company continues to operate its website, however,
following the implementation of an acquisition strategy, the
Company has not pursued any revenue generating activities in
the last six months of 2001.

The Company's current management team, consisting of finance
and administrative employees is in place to maintain
operations and enable ongoing review and analysis of
acquisition candidates and to assist in the consummation of
an appropriate transaction. Management has also engaged the
services of an investment banker, to assist in this process
(see Note 12).

Current Developments

On January 9, 2002 Nettaxi.com executed a definitive merger
agreement which contemplates the merger of RAES Acquisition
Corporation, a California corporation and wholly owned
subsidiary of Nettaxi.com with RAE Systems, Inc., a
California corporation that designs and manufacturers
portable gas detection instruments and wireless monitoring
and communications equipment. Under the terms of the merger
agreement, unanimously approved by both Boards of Directors,
RAE Systems shareholders will receive approximately 80% of
the outstanding shares of the combined entity. Subject to
the approval of shareholders, Nettaxi.com shares will be
reverse split at the ratio of 5.67 to 1 prior to the closing
of the merger. The management and Board of Directors of
Nettaxi will resign at the closing of the merger and be
replaced with the Board of Directors and management team of
RAE Systems. It is the understanding of the respective
parties that upon completion of the merger the going-forward
operating activities of the combined company will be that of
RAE Systems, Inc. The transaction, which is expected to be
tax-free to shareholders of both companies for U.S. Federal
income tax purposes is subject to the approval of each
party's shareholders(see Note 12). Upon completion of the
merger, the new company will be known as RAE Systems Inc.

================================================================================

Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of Nettaxi.com and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Nettaxi OnLine Communities, Inc. and RAES
Acquisition Corporation. All intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated
financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments having
original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash
equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Allowances For Doubtful Accounts

The Company grants credit to its customers after undertaking
an investigation of credit risk for all significant amounts.
An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided for estimated
credit losses at a level deemed appropriate to adequately
provide for known and inherent risks related to such
amounts. The allowance is based on reviews of losses,
adjustment history, current economic conditions and other
factors that deserve recognition in estimating potential
losses. While management uses the best information available
in making its determination, the ultimate recovery of
recorded accounts receivable is also dependent upon future
economic and other conditions that may be beyond
management's control.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is
provided using the straight-line method over the estimated
economic useful lives of the assets, as follows:

Estimated useful lives
-------------------------------------------------------------

Furniture and fixtures 5 years
Office equipment 5 years
Computers and equipment 3 years
-------------------------------------------------------------

Assets held under capital leases are amortized on a
straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or
the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

Purchased Technology and Other Intangibles

The Company amortizes, on a straight-line basis, the cost of
purchased technology and other intangibles over the shorter
of five (5) years or the useful life of the related
technology or underlying asset.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

The Company's revenues are derived principally from the sale
of banner advertisements, web hosting services and from
products from its online malls. Advertising revenues are
recognized in the period in which the advertisement is
delivered, provided that collection of the resulting
receivable is probable. Advertisers are charged on a per
impression or delivery basis up to a maximum as specified in
the contract. To date, the duration of the Company's
advertising commitments has not exceeded one year. When the
Company guarantees a minimum number of impressions or
deliveries, revenue is recognized ratably in proportion to
the number of impressions or deliveries recorded to the
minimum number of impressions and deliveries guaranteed. Web
hosting revenues are recognized in the period in which the
services are provided. Product revenue is recognized upon
shipment, provided no significant obligations remain and
collectability is probable.

================================================================================

Advertising revenue include barter revenues, which are the
exchange by Nettaxi.com of advertising space on
Nettaxi.com's web sites for reciprocal advertising space on
other web sites. Revenues from these barter transactions are
recorded as advertising revenues at the lower of the
estimated fair value of the advertisements received or
delivered and are recognized when the advertisements are run
on Nettaxi.com's web sites. Barter expenses are recorded
when Nettaxi.com's advertisements are run on the reciprocal
web sites, which is typically in the same period as when
advertisements are run on Nettaxi.com's web sites. Barter
revenues and related expenses for the years ended December
31, 2001, 2000, and 1999 were approximately $0, $2,224,800,
and $343,400, respectively, representing 0%, 28%, and 7% of
net revenues, respectively.

In November 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 99-17
Accounting for Advertising Barter Transactions. Under EITF
99-17, revenues and expenses should be recognized from
advertising barter transactions at the fair value of the
advertising surrendered or received only when the company
has a historical practice of receiving or paying cash for
such transactions.

Royalty revenues are earned on sales of the Company
developed CD-Rom "Internet the City" by third-party
distributors. Third-party distributors package the CD-Rom
with their products for sale to the end-user. The
distributor remits payments to the Company 90 days after the
sales of their product to the end-user and the end-user does
not have a right of return. The Company recognizes these
revenues only upon receipt of payment from the distributor.

The Company is in contract with several partners in revenue
and expense sharing agreements. The agreements provide for
the Company to earn revenues based on the sale of
third-party suppliers products. For those transactions,
where the Company receives either a percentage of the
transaction or a fixed fee, revenues are recorded net.

================================================================================

The Company charges its co-hosting customers one-time
installation fees. Prior to January 31, 2001, the Company
recognized these fees upon completion of the installation.
In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101,
Revenue Recognition one-time installation fees are to be
deferred and systematically recognized as the products
and/or services are delivered and/or performed over the term
of the arrangement or the expected period of performance
that the fees are earned. The Company did not recognize any
one-time installation fees in 2001.

Premium subscribers are charged web-site development fees to
develop their web-site upon request. These fees charged and
the costs to develop these sites by the Company are nominal.
The Company defers the recognition of the fees charged over
the period of the contract.

In December 1999, the staff of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) issued its Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB)
No. 101, Revenue Recognition. SAB No. 101 provides the SEC
staff's views in applying generally accepted accounting
principles to selected revenue recognition issues. SAB No.
101 is effective for the fourth fiscal quarter of fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1999. The Company
believes that its current revenue recognition policies
comply with the provisions of SAB No. 101.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires an asset and
liability approach. This approach results in the recognition
of deferred tax assets (future tax benefits) and liabilities
for the expected future tax consequences of temporary
differences between the book carrying amounts and the tax
basis of assets and liabilities. The deferred tax assets and
liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of
those differences, which will either be deductible or
taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or
settled. Future tax benefits are subject to a valuation
allowance when management believes it is more likely than
not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Advertising Costs

The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising
costs for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999,
were approximately $74,700, $2,365,600, and $2,831,300,
respectively.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets for
impairment. When events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable,
the Company writes the asset down to its fair value.

The Company periodically reviews other intangible assets to
evaluate whether events or changes have occurred that would
suggest an impairment of carrying value. An impairment would
be recognized when expected future operating cash flows are
lower than the carrying value.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the
Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for
financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents:

The carrying amount reported in the consolidated
balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents
approximates fair value.

Short-term debt:

The fair value of short-term debt approximates cost
because of the short period of time to maturity.

Stock-Based Incentive Program

SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,
encourages entities to recognize compensation costs for
stock-based employee compensation plans using the fair value
based method of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123, but
allows for the continued use of the intrinsic value based
method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles
Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees. The Company continues to use the accounting
prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25 and as such is required to
disclose pro forma net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per
share as if the fair value based method of accounting had
been applied (Note 7).

In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued Interpretation (Interpretation) No. 44,
Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock
Compensation, an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25, which
became effective July 1, 2000. Interpretation No. 44
clarifies (a) the definition of employee for purposes of
applying Opinion 25, (b) the criteria for determining
whether a stock compensation plan qualifies as a
noncompensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequences of
various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed
stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an
exchange of stock compensation awards in a business
combination. Adoption of the provisions of the
Interpretation had no significant impact on the Company's
financial statements.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share

In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per
Share, which was effective December 28, 1997. Conforming to
SFAS No. 128, the Company changed its method of computing
earnings per share and restated all prior periods included
in the consolidated financial statements. Basic loss per
common share is determined by dividing loss available to
common shareholders by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding. Diluted per-common-share amounts assume
the issuance of common stock for all potentially dilutive
equivalent shares outstanding. Anti-dilution provisions of
SFAS 128 require consistency between diluted
per-common-share amounts and basic per-common-share amounts
in loss periods. For the periods reported, there were no
differences between basic and diluted earnings per share.
The number of potential common shares not included in
diluted earnings per share, due to their being
anti-dilutive, are 25,953,816, 23,994,732, and 3,838,679,
for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999,
respectively. All share and per share information has been
adjusted for the shares exchanged for the common stock of
Plus Net, Inc.

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137, Accounting for
Derivative Instrument and Hedging Activities - Deferral of
the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133, which amends
SFAS No. 133 to be effective for all fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2000. In June 2000, SFAS No. 133 was amended
by SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, which amended or
modified certain issues discussed in SFAS No. 133. SFAS No.
138 is also effective for all fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 138 establish
accounting and reporting standards requiring that every
derivative instrument be recorded in the balance sheet as
either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The
statements also require that changes in the derivative's
fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless
specific hedge accounting criteria are met. The Company does
not engage in derivative instruments or hedging activities.
Accordingly, there was no impact on the Company's financial
statements from the adoption of SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No.
138.

In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (SFAS 141),
Business Combinations, which supersedes Accounting
Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 16, Business
Combinations. SFAS 141 eliminates the pooling- of-interests
method of accounting for business combinations and modifies
the application of the purchase accounting method. The
elimination of the pooling-of-interests method is effective
for transactions initiated after June 30, 2001. The
remaining provision of SFAS 141 will be effective for
transactions accounted for using the purchase method that
are completed after June 30, 2001.

In July 2001, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 142 (SFAS 142),
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, which supersedes APB Opinion
No. 17, Intangible Assets. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and
intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized
but are tested for impairment annually using the fair value
approach, except in certain circumstances, and whether there
is an impairment indicator, other intangible assets will
continue to be valued and amortized over their estimated
lives; in-process research and development will continue to
be written off immediately; all acquired goodwill must be
assigned to reporting units for purposes of impairment
testing and segment reporting and existing goodwill will no
longer be subject to amortization. The provisions of SFAS
No. 142 are required to be applied starting with fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2001.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143 (SFAS 143)
Accounting for Obligations Associated with the Retirement of
Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 143 addresses financial accounting
and reporting for the retirement obligation of an asset.
SFAS 143 states that companies should recognize the asset
retirement cost, at its fair value, as part of the cost
asset and classify the accrued amount as a liability in the
balance sheet. The asset retirement liability is then
accreted to the ultimate payout as interest expense. The
initial measurement of the liability would be subsequently
updated for revised estimates of the discounted cash
outflows. SFAS 143 will be effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company has not yet
determined the effect SFAS 143 will have on its financial
position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144 (SFAS 144)
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets. SFAS 144 supersedes the SFAS No. 121 by requiring
that one accounting model to be used for long-lived assets
to be disposed of by sale, whether previously held and used
or newly acquired, and by broadening the presentation of
discontinued operation to include more disposal
transactions. SFAS 144 will be effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company has not yet
determined the effect SFAS 144 will have on its financial
position, results of operations, or cash flows.

6. CONVERTIBLE On March 31, 1999 the Company entered into a $5,000,000
NOTES PAYABLE, Convertible Debt Financing Agreement (the Agreement) with
RELATED PARTY RGC International Investors, LDC (RGC). The convertible
debenture bears interest at 5% and matures on March 31,
2004. The debentures are convertible at the option of the
holder into that number of shares of common stock equal to
the principal amount of the debentures to be converted
including all accrued interest, divided by the conversion
price specified in the debentures. The conversion price is
the lesser of a variable or fixed conversion price. The
variable conversion price is based on the trading price of
the Company's common stock over a fixed period to conversion
of the debentures, and the fixed conversion price is $11.88.
The fixed conversion price represents 120% of the average of
the three lowest trades ten days prior to the effective date
of the Agreement.

In accordance with the terms of the debt agreement, RGC
converted, in November and December 1999, $1,800,000 of the
debentures, with accrued interest of $63,300, into 802,223
shares of common stock and, in January and February 2000,
$800,000 of the debentures, with accrued interest of $34,900
into 632,472 shares of common stock.

On April 28, 2000, the Company reached a settlement
agreement with RGC for the $2,400,000 remaining principal
amount of the convertible debentures, plus accrued interest
thereon of approximately $85,000, whereby the Company agreed
to issue an aggregate of 1,750,000 shares of common stock
"settlement shares" and warrants to purchase an aggregate of
2,200,000 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of
$1.50 per share, as discussed further in Note 7. It was also
agreed that beginning on the date of the agreement and prior
to the delivery of the settlement shares, the debentures
would be convertible at a fixed conversion price of $1.42
per share. As the fair market value of the Company's stock
on April 28, 2000 was $3.00, the Company recognized a deemed
noncash interest expense of $2,400,000 resulting from the
implied beneficial conversion feature.

7. SHAREHOLDERS' COMMON STOCK
EQUITY

In May 1999, the Company completed a merger in a single
transaction with Plus Net, Inc. (as discussed in Note 1) by
exchanging 7,000,000 shares of its common stock for all of
the common stock of Plus Net, Inc. Each share of Plus Net
was exchanged for 1,000 shares of Nettaxi common stock. The
merger constituted a tax-free reorganization and was
accounted for as a pooling of interest under Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 16.

For periods proceeding the merger, there were no
intercompany transactions that require elimination from the
combined consolidated results of operations and there were
no adjustments necessary to conform the accounting practices
of the two companies. Plus Net, Inc. reported no revenues
and a net loss of $200 for the period ended December 31,
1998. For the period from January 1 to May 7, 1999 Plus Net,
Inc. had revenues of approximately $700,000 and net income
of approximately $413,600. Subsequent to the merger the
Company ceased its evaluation and processing of online
credit card transactions business. In 1999, this line of
business accounted for approximately $1,285,000 of the
Company's revenues.

In accordance with the Convertible Debt Financing Agreement,
entered into between the Company and RGC International
Investors, LDC on March 31, 1999, RGC had the option to
purchase one additional share of common stock for every
share of common stock issuable as a result of a conversion
of the debenture, at a price equal to the applicable
conversion price.

In November and December 1999, RGC exercised this investment
option right and purchased 802,223 shares of the Company's
common stock for proceeds of $1,863,300 and, in January and
February 2000, an additional 632,472 shares of common stock
for proceeds of $834,900.

In December 1999, the Company issued 350,000 shares of
common stock to a consulting group in exchange for a
two-year agreement to provide the Company with consulting
services. Based on the then fair market value of the shares
issued the price of these services was determined to be
$1,060,800. In February 2000, the Company issued an
additional 175,000 shares of common stock, with a fair
market value of $574,200, in consideration for extending the
agreement for an additional six months.

The Company amortized the aggregate consideration given over
the term of the agreement and fully recognized the
unamortizated portion in the second quarter of 2001.
Included in prepaid expenses and deferred expenses was as of
December 31, 2000, $926,500, representing the then
unamortized portion of the consideration given for these
consulting services.

In September 2000, the Company issued 75,000 additional
shares of common stock to the consulting group in
consideration of failure to execute the demand registration
rights in a timely manner pursuant to the agreements. Based
on the fair market value of the shares issued, the Company
recognized $37,500 in consulting expense for this
transaction.

In February 2000, the Company offered shares of its common
stock, valued at $1.50 per share, and warrants, each
expiring on January 31, 2003 and entitling the holder the
right to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise
price of $4.00 per share, through a private placement
offering. The Company issued 15,416,633 shares of common
stock and warrants to purchase 15,416,633 shares of common
stock in the offering for net proceeds of $21,142,600.

In February 2000, the Company issued 6,250 shares of common
stock, with a fair market value of $9,700, in settlement for
the cancellation of a letter of intent to provide
sponsorship.

the unamortized portion of the consideration given for these
consulting services.

In May 2000, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation was
amended to increase the number of shares of authorized
common stock to 200,000,000.

WARRANTS

In 1998, prior to the adoption of the Stock Option Plan as
discussed below, the Company granted warrants to directors
and employees of the Company, to purchase 2,399,298 shares
of common stock at $0.04. As the exercise price for those
warrants was less than the market price of the common stock
on the grant date, the Company recorded in accordance with
APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, $855,000 of compensation costs associated with
these warrants.

In September 1998, these warrants were exchanged for
2,399,298 shares of common stock via the issuance of
promissory notes for $95,000, concurrent with the
reorganization of the Company. The promissory notes have
been accounted for as common stock subscribed and are an
offset to shareholders' equity until such notes are
collected.

During the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, the
Company issued warrants in connection with financing,
consulting services, and conversion of trade payables to
purchase 3,139,491 and 475,000 shares of common stock,
respectively.

The Company estimates the fair value of warrants at the
grant date by using the Black-Scholes valuation model with
the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants
in 2001, 2000, and 1999: dividend yield of 0%; expected
volatility of 94%, 138%, and 69%; risk-free interest rate of
5.5%, 6.2%, and 6.2%; and the expected contractual lives of
the warrant. The computed value is charged to operations or
interest over the term of the related agreements.

agreement with RGC pursuant to which it exercised these
warrants.

In consideration for the early exercise of the warrants, the
exercise price for the warrants was decreased from $12.375
to $7.875 and the Company issued RGC warrants to purchase an
additional 150,000 shares of common stock at $7.875. These
warrants were subsequently, due to anti-dilution provisions,
issued at an exercise price of $4.38 per share, resulting in
an increase in the number of shares issuable upon exercise
of the warrants to 269,692. The Company recognized an
additional $245,700 of interest expense associated with
these warrants. In 2000 and 1999, the Company recognized

STOCK OPTION PROGRAM

In September 1998, the Company adopted the 1998 Stock Option
Plan and, in January 2000, the Board of Directors adopted
the 1999 Stock Option Plan (collectively "the Plans"), which
is subject to its ratification by the shareholders.

The Plans authorizes the grant of options to purchase shares
of common stock to employees, directors, and consultants of
the Company and its affiliates. The options are a
combination of both incentive and nonstatutory options.

Incentive options may be granted at not less than 100% of
the fair market value per share, and nonstatutory options
may be granted at not less than 85% of the fair market value
per share at the date of grant as determined by the Board of
Directors or committee thereof, except for options granted
to a person owning greater than 10% of the outstanding
stock, for which the exercise price must not be less than
110% of the fair market value. Options granted under the
Plans generally vest over three years and are exercisable
over ten years.

The Company has reserved 3,000,000 shares of common stock
for issuance under the 1998 Stock Option Plan and 8,900,000

issuance of 0, 380,000, and 285,000 consultant options,
respectively, for administrative and sales and marketing
services. These amounts were computed using the
Black-Scholes option valuation model. The related
amortization was charged to operations over the term of the
related consulting agreements. In 2001, 2000, and 1999, such
amortization amounted to approximately $429,900, $573,700,
and $211,300, respectively. The weighted-average assumptions

31, 1999 relates to the earnings of Plus Net, Inc. prior to
the merger. The provision for income taxes for the years
ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 consisted of minimum state
taxes.

The following summarizes the differences between income tax
expense and the amount computed applying the Federal income
tax rate of 34% for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000,
and 1999:

---------------------------------------------------------------------

=====================================================================

The Company's effective tax rate differs from the statutory
federal income tax principally as a result of federal and
state net operating losses for which no deferred benefit is
recognized due to a full valuation allowance provided on the
resulting deferred tax asset.

As of December 31, 2001, the Company had a federal net
operating loss (NOL) carryforward in the amount of
$26,754,000 which may be applied to future taxable income
until these benefits begin to expire in 2017. The Company
also had a California NOL carryforward in the amount of
$14,200,600 which may be applied to future taxable income
until these benefits begin to expire in 2002.

The Company's ability to utilize the NOL carryforwards are
dependent upon the Company's ability to generate taxable
income in future periods and may be limited due to
restrictions imposed under Federal and state laws upon a
change in ownership.

9. CONCENTRATION Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company
OF CREDIT RISK to concentration of credit risk, consist principally of cash
and cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company
places its cash and cash equivalents with high quality
financial institutions and, by policy, limits the amounts of
credit exposure to any one financial institution.

The Company's accounts receivable are derived from many
customers in various industries. The Company believes any
risk of accounting loss is significantly reduced due to the
diversity of its end-customers and geographic sales areas.
The Company performs credit evaluation of its customers'
financial condition whenever necessary, and generally does
not require cash collateral or other security to support
customer receivables.


10. MAJOR In 2001, three customers accounted for approximately 47%,
CUSTOMERS 25%, and 19% of revenues, respectively, with related account
receivable as of December 31, 2001 of $0, $0, and $0,
respectively.

In 2000, four customers accounted for approximately 20%,
13%, 11%, and 10% of revenues, respectively, with related
account receivable as of December 31, 2000 of $294,000, $0,
$95,200, and $0, respectively.

12. COMMITMENTS On May 1, 2001 seven shareholders of Nettaxi filed an action
AND CONTINGENCIES against the Company. The complaint also names the Company's
Chief Executive Officer, President and former Chief
Financial Officer as additional defendants. The complaint
alleged that the Company violated securities laws in
connection with its February 2000 private placement. The
complaint was amended on May 23, 2001. The amendment
addressed factual matters and added three new plaintiffs to
the lawsuit. Shortly after filing the amended complaint, the
Company, pursuant to the rules of the District Court, met
with plaintiffs and pointed out further factual inaccuracies
and deficiencies. Plaintiffs, then, chose to attempt to
amend their complaint for a second time. Six of the
plaintiffs purchased shares of Nettaxi common stock in the
February 2000 private placement. Prior to filing the
complaint the plaintiffs demanded the refund of all of the
money invested in Nettaxi and demanded that the exercise
price of the warrants issued in the private placement be
reduced from $4.00 to $0.25 per share. Additionally, prior
to filing the complaint, Nettaxi was asked to invest capital
in a company affiliated with one of the plaintiffs. In the
complaint, the plaintiffs seek compensatory damages,
injunctive relief and fees and interest. On October 1, 2001,
the Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint filed by
Plaintiffs. In response, Plaintiffs have given notice that
they intend to seek court permission to file a third amended
complaint to attempt to recharacterize their claims and to
remove some claims which Plaintiffs concede are contrary to
the law. Management believes that the allegations made in
the complaint are without merit and that this lawsuit
reflects shareholder frustration over the recent downturn in
the stock market and will defend the action vigorously.

From time to time, in the normal course of business, various
claims are made against the Company. At this time, in the
opinion of management, there are no pending claims, the
outcome of which is expected to result in a material adverse
effect on the financial position of the Company.
