VOICE MOBILITY INTERNATIONAL, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2003
Unaudited

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Voice Mobility International, Inc., (the "Company") is a Nevada corporation engaged in the development and sales and marketing of enhanced messaging software through its wholly owned operating subsidiaries, Voice Mobility Inc. and Voice Mobility (US) Inc. The Company's enhanced messaging software suite will allow for legacy voice-mail replacement and incremental offerings such as real time call connect, voice-mail to e-mail, and fax to e-mail services. These unified communication services are facilitated by the creation of a single personal digital mailbox that can receive any type of communication regardless of its incoming format or medium. The Company's principal geographic markets include North America, Europe and Asia.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2003.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2002 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

The Company incurred an operating loss of $1,474,863 for the six-months ended June 30, 2003 [June 30, 2002 - $2,211,134] and has a working capital deficiency of $2,712,727 that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management has been able, thus far, to finance the operations, as well as the growth of the business, through a series of equity and debt financings. The Company has received conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange to restructure its existing debt as described in Notes 10[a], [b] and [c]. As a result of the restructuring, the Company may receive gross proceeds of up to $742,115 (CDN$1,000,000) in connection with the issuance of the Series D promissory notes and the common stock units. As of August 13, 2003, the Company has received $54,289 (CDN$75,000) proceeds from the sale of the Series D promissory notes and $83,677 (CDN$115,600) proceeds from the sale of common shares and warrants. Management plans to continue to seek other sources of financing on favorable terms, however, there are no assurance that any such commitment can be obtained on favorable terms, if at all. Management believes it has implemented significant cost reductions and expects to keep its operating costs to a minimum until cash is available through financing or operating activities. Management expects revenues to increase in 2003 from the deployment of the enhanced message software suite which will afford the Company the ability to fund its daily operations and service its debt obligations. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in achieving these goals.

In view of these conditions, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is uncertain and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations and, if necessary, on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations. Management believes that its current and future plans enable it to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

2. MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND SEGMENTED INFORMATION

The Company operates in one major line of business, the development, manufacture and marketing of enhanced messaging software systems. The Company derived 73% [six months ended June 30, 2002 - 92%] of its revenues to external customers from sales by its Canadian operations and has substantially all its assets in Canada. The Company derived 27% [six months ended June 30, 2002 - 8%] of its revenues from sales by its US operations. Sales to Ikano Communications comprised 38% and sales to Haddad Advanced Technology Company comprised 27% of revenues for the six-months ended June 30, 2003. Sales to Innovatia Inc., an existing shareholder of the Company, and NBTel, both wholly owned subsidiaries of Aliant Inc., comprised 64% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

3. NOTES RECEIVABLE

On August 8, 2001, a plaintiff commenced an action in the Superior Court of California against the Company and the predecessor corporation, Equity Capital Group, Inc. ("ECG"), to recover damages as a result of an alleged breach of contract. On October 15, 2001, a settlement agreement and mutual release was signed between the Company and the above noted plaintiff. The settlement agreement sets forth payments owing to the plaintiff by the Company in the sum of $252,500 to be paid in set installments from October 10, 2001 to October 1, 2002. The Company paid the installments in full in accordance with the settlement agreement.

Prior to signing the plaintiff settlement agreement, the Company signed an indemnification agreement on October 10, 2001 with the former majority shareholder of ECG to indemnify the Company against this claim and any other claims or liabilities that existed prior to the reverse acquisition of ECG. In addition, the Company and the former majority shareholder of ECG signed a settlement agreement, a security agreement and a stock pledge agreement. In accordance with the settlement agreement, the former shareholder is to pay the Company $290,000 to cover the costs of the plaintiff settlement and additional related legal expenses. The settlement amount was to be collected in set installments from October 10, 2001 to October 25, 2002. The security and stock pledge agreements are in place to further collateralize the Company's position in addition to the indemnification agreement.

On September 16, 2002, the former majority shareholder of ECG filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 13 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

As at June 30, 2003, the former shareholder was delinquent in scheduled payments to the Company totaling $190,406.

In 2002, a shareholder and Director of the Company agreed to indemnify the Company against any losses that may be incurred on the collectibility of the note receivable.

On December 30, 2002, the Company entered into loan subscription agreements with two shareholders for maximum loan advances of $1,335,807 (Cdn$1,800,000). The receipt of the proceeds was subject to certain dates and achieving certain revenue milestones. A promissory note was issued on the date each advance was made.

As at June 30, 2003, the Company had issued an aggregate of $1,335,807 (Cdn$1,800,000) of Series B promissory notes to two shareholders. The notes are repayable on the earlier of one year following the date of issue or when the Company's cumulative revenues plus the net proceeds of any debt or equity financing exceed $1,855,287 (Cdn$2,500,000) from the issuance date, or when the Company completes a consolidation, merger, amalgamation, arrangement or other reorganization as a result of which the successor corporation after completion of the transaction has working capital of more than $1,855,288 (Cdn$2,500,000). The Series B promissory notes were issued on December 30, 2002, January 31, 2003, February 28, 2003, March 31, 2003, April 30, 2003 and May 31, 2003.

The notes are subject to a repayment premium equal to 15% of the outstanding principal balance. The repayment premium of $200,371 (Cdn$270,000) has been recorded as an increase to the promissory notes balance and as a deferred financing cost. The deferred financing cost is being amortized to interest expense over one year. The notes bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum which is payable quarterly.

The promissory note bears interest at prime plus 1% (prime rate at June 30, 2003 was 5.0%) and is repayable in quarterly installments until repaid in full. The amount payable each quarter ("Maximum Amount Payable") is the lesser of $168,221 (Cdn$226,678) and 40% of the net aggregate amount of invoices ("Invoiced Amount") issued by the Company to Aliant and its subsidiaries in the quarter. The Maximum Amount Payable for the first two quarters ended June 30, 2002 was $nil, due on October 1, 2002. All subsequent amounts payable, if any, will be due on or before the first business day following the quarter end date. In the event the Invoiced Amount for a particular quarter exceeds $168,221 (Cdn$226,678), the Company will carry forward the difference between the Invoiced Amount and $168,221 (Cdn$226,678) and include the difference in the calculation of Maximum Amount Payable for subsequent quarters. The Company has the option, until December 31, 2004, to settle some or all of the promissory note, principal and interest, in cash, common shares or a combination thereof. If paid by common shares, then 500,000 of the shares will be valued at the lesser of the market price of the shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange and Cdn$0.75 per share, and the value of the balance of any other shares issuable is determined by the weighted average trading price of the Company's common share on the Toronto Stock Exchange over the ten trading days immediately prior to the date on which the common shares are to be issued.

After December 31, 2004, any amount of the promissory note which remains unpaid will continue to be settled at the lesser of $168,221 (Cdn$226,678) and 40% of the net aggregate amount of invoices issued by the Company to Aliant in the quarter, however the Company is required to settle only with common shares and the number of common shares payable each quarter, if any, is determined by dividing the Maximum Amount Payable by Cdn$1.56.

The Company is required to obtain shareholder and regulatory approval to issue common shares to settle the promissory note. The Company has obtained shareholder and regulatory approval to issue up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock to settle all or a portion of the promissory note. If the Company does not obtain additional approval for further issuances of common stock, the Company can only repay the remaining balance of the promissory note, if any, in cash.

As of June 30, 2003, the current portion is calculated as $341,856 (Cdn$460,651) which consists of the amounts due for the quarters ended September 30, 2002 [$168,221 (Cdn$226,678)], December 31, 2002 [$168,221 (Cdn$226,678)], and March 31, 2003 [$4,967 (Cdn$7,295)]. If the Company made the election to settle the amount due on July 1, 2003 with common shares, this would result in the issuance of an additional 2,303,255 shares of common stock.

7. DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT

On March 4, 2002, the Company and Innovatia signed a development agreement to develop enhanced messaging software for the period January 1, 2002 to December 31, 2003. Innovatia licensed certain intellectual property to the Company on a non-exclusive non-transferable basis for use in the development and verification of current products and provided specific professional, project management, administrative and support services. In consideration for these services, the Company agreed to pay Innovatia a cash royalty within 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter equal to 10% on the gross quarterly revenue received for the sale of the Company's products. On November 26, 2002, Innovatia terminated the development agreement. In accordance with the agreement, the royalty payments are to be payable on gross revenue for six months after the termination date. As at June 30, 2003, the Company accrued $51,723 (Cdn$69,697) for the royalty payments.

 8. SHARE CAPITAL

[a] Issued and Authorized

The Company is authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 share of common stock, par value $.001 per share and up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share.

In connection with the 1999 recapitalization of VMI, Voice Mobility Canada Limited (VM Canada) issued 6,600,000 VM Canada Exchangeable Shares. VM Canada is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Each VM Canada Exchangeable Share is exchangeable for one of the Company's common shares at any time at the option of the shareholder, and will be exchanged no later than July 1, 2009, and has essentially the same voting, dividend and other rights as one of the Company's common shares. A share of Series A preferred voting stock, which was issued to a trustee in trust for the holders of the VM Canada Exchangeable Shares, provides the mechanism for holders of the VM Canada Exchangeable Shares to have voting rights in the Company. The Company considers each Exchangeable Share as equivalent to a share of its common stock and therefore the Exchangeable Shares are included in the computation of basic earnings per share.

As at June 30, 2003 the holders of the Exchangeable Shares are entitled to 3,450,000 individual votes in all matters of the Company. As the Exchangeable Shares are converted into common stock of the Company, the voting rights attached to the share of Series A preferred voting stock are proportionately reduced.

[e] Pro forma disclosure of stock based compensation

Pro forma information regarding results of operations and earnings (loss) per share is required by SFAS 123, as amended by SFAS 148, for stock-based awards to employees as if the Company had accounted for such awards using the fair value method.

The fair value of the Company's stock-based awards granted to employees for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The option pricing assumptions include a dividend yield of 0%, a weighted average expected life of 2.5 years [six-month period ended June 30, 2002 - 2.5 years], a risk free interest rate of 3.57% [six-month period ended June 30, 2002 - 3.26%] and an expected volatility of 171 % [six-month period ended June 30, 2002 - 159%]. The weighted average fair value of options granted in the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 was $0.20 [six-month period ended June 30, 2002 - $0.11]. For pro forma purposes, the estimated value of the Company's stock-based awards to employees is amortized over the vesting period of the underlying options. The effect on the Company's net loss and loss per share of applying SFAS 123 to the Company's stock-based awards to employees would approx imate the following:

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On December 31, 2001, a former contract employee filed a Writ of Summons and Statement of Claim with the Supreme Court of British Columbia claiming breach of an implied employment contract and Stock Option Agreement by the Company. The relief sought is damages under several causes of action for an aggregate of approximately $1,825,892. The Company believes that there is no substantive merit to the claim and management intends to vigorously defend the action. The Company has made no provision in the financial statements on the belief that the probability of a loss is remote. Any amount the Company may be obligated to pay, if any, in connection with this claim will be recorded in the period the claim is resolved.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

[a] On July 4, 2003, the Company received conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange to convert the Series A promissory notes (CDN$650,000 principal amount), the Series B promissory notes (CDN$1,800,000 principal amount) and the Series B preferred shares (CDN$2,372,526 stated amount) into Series C promissory notes issued by our subsidiary, Voice Mobility Inc. In accordance with the terms of the Series A and Series B promissory notes, the Company will pay the 15% repayment fee owed to the holders of such notes in common shares of the Company at a price of $0.315 (CDN$0.425) per share. In consideration of agreeing to the restructuring, the Company will issue to the holders of the Series A and Series B promissory notes and the Series B preferred shares one share purchase warrant for each $1.11 (CDN$1.50) of principal amount of the Series C promissory notes. The warrants will be exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $0.315 (CDN $0.425) per share.

[b] The Company has also received approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange for the issuance of up to $371,058 (CDN$500,000) of Series D promissory notes. The Company will issue one share purchase warrant for every $0.74 (CDN$1.00) in principal amount of the Series D promissory notes. The warrants will be exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $0.315 (CDN$0.425) per share.

[c] The Company has also received approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange for the issuance of up to 1,176,471 units of the Company at $0.315 (CDN$0.425) per unit. Each unit is comprised of one common share and one share purchase warrant to purchase an additional common share for a period of five years at an exercise price of $0.315 (CDN$0.425) per share.

[d] On July 28, 2003, the date of expiry for the Series P warrants and Series Q warrants was extended from July 31, 2003 to January 31, 2004.

11. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" ("FIN 45"). FIN 45 requires that a liability be recorded in the guarantor's balance sheet upon issuance of a guarantee. In addition, FIN 45 requires disclosures about the guarantees, including indemnifications that an entity has issued. The disclosure provisions of FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim periods ending after December 15, 2002; however, the provisions for initial recognition and measurement are effective on a prospective basis for guarantees that are issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The initial adoption of FIN 45 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations together with the consolidated interim unaudited financial statements and the notes to consolidated unaudited financial statements included elsewhere in this filing. Much of the information included in this quarterly report includes or is based upon estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". Such forward-looking statements include any projections or estimates made by us and our management in connection with our business operations. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions, or other future performance suggested herein. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances o ccurring after the date of such statements.

Such estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements" involve various risks and uncertainties as outlined below. We caution readers of this quarterly report that important factors in some cases have affected and, in the future, could materially affect actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in any such estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". In evaluating us, our business and any investment in our business, readers should carefully consider the risk factors that are included at page 19 of this quarterly report.

Voice Mobility International, Inc. is engaged in the development and sales and marketing of unified voice messaging software through its wholly-owned operating subsidiaries, Voice Mobility Inc. and Voice Mobility (US) Inc. Our enhanced messaging software suite allows for legacy voice-mail replacement and incremental offerings such as real time call connect, voice-mail to e-mail, and fax to e-mail services. These unified communication services are facilitated by the creation of a single personal digital mailbox that can receive any type of communication regardless of its incoming form at or medium.

During the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, we implemented a restructuring plan in an effort to reduce our expenses and monthly burn rate. The restructuring plan consisted primarily of a reduction in employees in all areas of our operations, a reduction in our office space from 5,000 s.f. to 2,000 s.f. (saving rent of $2,000 (CDN$3,000) per month) by relocating our offices to our new premises in Burnaby, British Columbia, a reduction in the size of our office space in Victoria, British Columbia by subleasing a portion of that space and by a significant reduction in the utilization of consultants.

In this quarterly report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars. All references to "CDN$" refer to Canadian dollars and all references to "common shares" refer to the common shares in our capital stock.

Results of Operations for the Three-Month Periods ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002:

Sales

Sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 were $24,887, compared to $23,842 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002 representing a 4% increase. Sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 were from recognition of deferred revenue from 2001 and support services. Sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002 were from recognition of deferred revenue from 2000, mailbox subscriptions, and support services. Sales to one customer, Haddad Advanced Technology Company, comprised 59% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Sales to Innovatia Inc., an existing shareholder of the Company, and NBTel, both wholly owned subsidiaries of Aliant Inc., comprised 65% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales were $nil and $130 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively, representing a 100% decrease. We did not record any cost of sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003

13

as all revenue earned in the quarter was recognized deferred revenue. Cost of sales for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002 was comprised of royalty costs.

The decrease in cost of sales was primarily attributed to the decrease of sales for three-month period ended June 30, 2003.

Operating Expenses

Total operating costs for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 were $749,517compared to $1,208,862 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2002. The decrease in total costs of $459,345, or 38%, was primarily attributable to the continued implementation of our restructuring plan to conserve cash and to reduce our monthly cash burn rate. The reduction in personnel was the primary method used to reduce our operating costs. During the three month period ended June 30, 2003, we employed 20 individuals and during the three month period ended June 30, 2002 we employed 35 individuals. The difference of 15 employees resulted in a net monthly savings of $77,500. Our restructuring plan has resulted in a significant reduction in ongoing operating costs.

Sales & Marketing

Our sales and marketing costs consist primarily of personnel, advertising, promotions, public relations and business development. Total costs were $181,793 and $278,382 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 respectively, representing a decrease of $96,589 or 35%.

The decrease of $96,589 in sales and marketing expense is a result of a decrease in sales and marketing personnel, advertising and promotions, consulting fees, and general sales and marketing expenses. The primary reason for the decrease in costs is a result of a cost reduction plan. We decreased personnel in our sales and marketing department by three persons between July 1, 2002 and June 30, 2003.

Research and Development

Our research and development costs were $174,352 and $263,007 respectively for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 respectively, representing a decrease of $88,655 or 34%. These costs reflect employee stock option compensation cost of $nil and $6,033 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively.

The decrease of $82,622(net of stock based compensation) in research and development expense between the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, is primarily a result of a decrease in research and development personnel, data and voice transmission, and related facility costs. The primary reason for the decrease in costs is a result of a cost reduction plan. We decreased personnel in our research and development department by nine developers between July 1, 2002 and June 30, 2003.

General and Administrative

Our general and administrative costs consist primarily of personnel costs, professional and legal costs, consulting fees, travel, and the lease of office space. General and administrative costs were $393,372and $667,473 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 respectively, representing a decrease of $274,101or 41% in our general and administrative costs.

The decrease of $274,101 in general and administrative costs between the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, is a result of a decrease in personnel costs, professional and legal costs, consulting fees, lease of office space, and general administrative costs. We decreased administrative personnel by two persons between July 1, 2002 and June 30, 2003.

14

Interest Income

Interest income was $nil and $1,459 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2002, we earned interest income on cash through term deposits. The decrease in interest income is a result of the decrease in cash and cash equivalents from June 30, 2003 to June 30, 2002.

Interest Expense

Our interest expense was $114,512 and $21,092 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively. The increase in interest expense resulted from the increase in financing activities for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 (Series B promissory notes payable).

Income Taxes

For financial statement purposes we have recognized a valuation allowance equal to deferred tax assets, which includes net operating loss carry forwards, for which realization is uncertain.

Net Loss

Our net loss was $839,142 and $1,204,783 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively. The primary reason for the decrease in net loss is due to the implementation of our restructuring plan that involved the reduction in personnel between July 2002 to June 2003 of 14 employees and their related costs.

Since inception through June 30, 2003, we have incurred aggregate net losses of $35 million. The losses were primarily incurred as a result of our focus on the development and testing of our product and the marketing of our product. We have moved our focus from the development of our product and we are now in a position to focus on the sales of our product and we believe that we will continue to incur losses until we generate sufficient revenues to cover all of our operating expenses. Because we are uncertain as to the rate at which telecommunications companies will replace their legacy voicemail systems with technology like our enhanced messaging product, we cannot accurately predict when we will be able to generate revenues which will exceed our ongoing operating expenses.

Results of Operations for the Six-Month Periods ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002:

Sales

Sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 were $54,629, compared to $193,330 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 representing a 72% decrease. The decrease in sales is attributed to the decrease in the volume of goods sold (and not to decreases in price) compared to the same period last year. Sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 were from recognition of deferred revenue from 2000 and support services. Sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 were from software license sales, recognition of deferred revenue from 2000, mailbox subscriptions, and support services. Sales to two customers, Ikano Communications and Haddad Advanced Technology Company, comprised 65% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Sales to Innovatia Inc., an existing shareholder of the Company, and NBTel, both wholly owned subsidiaries of Aliant Inc., comprised 65% of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales were $nil and $14,440 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively, representing a 100% decrease. We did not record any cost of sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 as all revenue earned in the quarter was recognized deferred revenue. Cost of sales for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 were comprised of localization costs, royalty cost and the amortization of the telephony hardware, software licenses, and installation costs of previous versions of our product at existing customer locations (which used to be sold as a complete product including hardware and software).

15

The decrease in cost of sales was primarily attributed to the decrease of sales for six-month period ended June 30, 2003.

Operating Expenses

Total operating costs for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 were $1,529,492 compared to $2,390,024 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002. The decrease in total costs of $860,532, or 36%, was primarily attributable to the continued implementation of our restructuring plan to conserve cash and to reduce our monthly cash burn rate. The plan resulted in a significant reduction in costs and the reduction in personnel was the primary method used to reduce our operating costs. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, we decreased the number of employees by eight which resulted in a net monthly savings of $39,364 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Sales & Marketing

Our sales and marketing costs consist primarily of personnel, advertising, promotions, public relations and business development. Total costs were $388,105 and $582,085 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 respectively, representing a decrease of $193,980 or 33%.

The decrease of $193,980 in sales and marketing expense is a result of a decrease in sales and marketing personnel, advertising and promotions, consulting fees, and general sales and marketing expenses. The primary reason for the decrease in costs is a result of a cost reduction plan. We decreased personnel in our sales and marketing department by 3 persons between July 1, 2002 and June 30, 2003.

Research and Development

Our research and development costs were $388,482 and $594,923 respectively for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 respectively, representing a decrease of $206,441 or 35%. These costs reflect employee stock option compensation cost of $nil and $14,171 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively.

The decrease of $192,270 (net of stock based compensation) in research and development expense between the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, is primarily a result of a decrease in research and development personnel, data and voice transmission, and related facility costs. The primary reason for the decrease in costs is a result of a cost reduction plan. We decreased personnel in our research and development department by 9 developers between July 1, 2002 and June 30, 2003.

General and Administrative

Our general and administrative costs consist primarily of personnel costs, professional and legal costs, consulting fees, travel, and the lease of office space. General and administrative costs were $752,905 and $1,213,016 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002 respectively, representing a decrease of $460,111 or 38% in our general and administrative costs. These costs reflect employee stock option compensation cost of $nil and $989 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively.

The decrease of $459,122 (net of stock based compensation) in general and administrative costs between the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, is a result of a decrease in personnel costs, professional and legal costs, consulting fees, lease of office space, and general administrative costs. We decreased administrative personnel by 2 persons between July 1, 2002 and June 30, 2003.

Interest Income

Interest income was $1 and $4,555 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2002, we earned interest income on cash through term deposits. The decrease in interest income is a result of the decrease in cash and cash equivalents from June 30, 2003 to June 30, 2002.

16

Interest Expense

Our interest expense was $191,402 and $41,198 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively. The increase in interest expense resulted from the increase in financing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, including the Series A and Series B promissory notes payable.

Income Taxes

For financial statement purposes the Company has recognized a valuation allowance equal to deferred tax assets, which includes net operating loss carry forwards, for which realization is uncertain.

Net Loss

Our net loss was $1,666,265 and $2,247,777 for the six month period ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 respectively. The primary reason for the decrease in net loss is due to the implementation of our restructuring plan that involved the reduction in personnel between July 2002 to June 2003 of 14 employees and their related costs.

Since inception through June 30, 2003, we have incurred aggregate net losses of $35 million. The losses were primarily incurred as a result of our focus on the development and testing of our product and the marketing of our product. We have moved our focus from the development of our product and we are now in a position to focus on the sales of our product and we believe that we will continue to incur losses until we generate sufficient revenues to cover all of our operating expenses. Because we are uncertain as to the rate at which telecommunications companies will replace their legacy voicemail systems with technology like our enhanced messaging product, we cannot accurately predict when we will be able to generate revenues which will exceed our ongoing operating expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2003, we had $62,270 in cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficiency of $2,712,727.

Operating Activities

Our operating activities resulted in net cash outflows of $1,105,181 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. Operating activities resulted in net cash outflows of $2.6 million and $7.6 million respectively for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. The operating cash outflows for these periods resulted from significant investments in research and development, sales, marketing and services, which led to operating losses in all periods.

Investing Activities

Investing activities resulted in net cash inflows of $11,183 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003. Investing activities resulted in net cash outflows of $0.01 million and $0.9 million respectively for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. The investing activities in fiscal 2002 was limited due to our cash conservation plans and in 2001 consisted primarily of purchases of property and equipment as a result of growth of our company and our development activities. These capital expenditures consisted of hardware, software, equipment, and furniture for our then growing employee headcount, and our research and development needs including test equipment. At June 30, 2003, we did not have any material commitments for future capital expenditures.

Financing Activities

Financing activities resulted in net cash inflows of $1,032,229 for the six month period ended June 30, 2003 from the issuance of Series B promissory notes.

On June 28, 2002, we received $428,891 (CDN$650,000) from the issuance of Series A promissory notes bearing interest at 8% per annum payable quarterly. The notes also include a 15% repayment premium due on settlement. The notes were repayable on the earlier of June 27, 2003 or when our net revenues plus any proceeds we receive from any financing exceed $1,855,288 (CDN$2,500,000), or when we complete a consolidation, merger,

17

amalgamation or other reorganization the result of which the successor corporation has working capital of more than $1,855,288 (CDN$2,500,000). We did not repay the notes on their maturity date of June 27, 2003. The proceeds from the promissory notes were applied towards working capital purposes.

In July 2002, we received $0.5 million in proceeds through a series of equity private placements. The private placements involved the issuance of both common shares and warrants. The proceeds were applied towards working capital purposes.

On December 30, 2002, we entered into two loan subscription agreements (Series B promissory notes) with two shareholders (William Laird and Margit Kristiansen) whereby if we achieve certain milestones, we would receive an aggregate of $1,335,807 (CDN$1,800,000). Each of these lenders advanced $111,317 (CDN$150,000) on each of December 30, 2002, January 31, 2003 and February 28, 2003. In addition, each of these lenders advanced a further $111,317 (CDN$150,000) three days after we provide the lenders with a written notice that: (i) we have received gross revenues of $34,731 (CDN$46,800) prior to the end of April 30, 2003; (ii) we have received gross revenues of $52,096 (CDN$70,200) prior to the end of May 31, 2003; and (iii) we have received gross revenues of $59,043 (CDN$79,560) prior to the end of June 30, 2003. The notes are repayable on the earlier of the date which is one year following the effective date of the notes, or when our cumulative revenues plus the net proceeds of any debt or equity financing exceed $1,855,288 (CDN$2,500,000), or when we complete a consolidation, merger, amalgamation, arrangement or other reorganization as a result of which the successor corporation after completion of the transaction has working capital of more than $1,855,288 (CDN$2,500,000). The notes bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum payable quarterly. The notes also include a 15% repayment premium due on settlement. In December 2002, we received $190,162 (CDN$300,000) as the first series of proceeds from the loan subscription agreement. The proceeds from the promissory notes were applied towards working capital purposes. Subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2002, in January 2003 and February 2003, we received the next two series of proceeds of $199,667 (CDN$300,000) each. These proceeds from the promissory notes were applied toward working capital purposes. Although we did not meet the milestones as outlined in the agreements, the lenders continued to advance funds in March, April and May 2003, i n order for us to meet our working capital requirements. As of August 1, 2003, we have received $1,335,807 (CDN$1,800,000) proceeds from these promissory notes.

Financing activities resulted in net cash inflows of $1,032,229, $926,533 and $9,730,855 for the six-month ended June 30, 2003 and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 respectively.

Restructuring of Existing Debt

On July 4, 2003, we received conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange of the following:

- conversion of the Series A promissory notes (CDN$650,000 principal amount) into Series C promissory notes in the principal amount of CDN$650,000 issued by our subsidiary, Voice Mobility Inc.;

- conversion of Series B promissory notes (CDN$1,800,000 principal amount) into Series C promissory notes in the principal amount of CDN$1,800,000 issued by our subsidiary, Voice Mobility Inc.;

- conversion of Series B preferred shares (CDN$2,372,526 stated amount) into Series C promissory notes in the principal amount of CDN$2,372,526;

- payment of the 15% repayment fee on the Series A and Series B promissory notes in our common shares at $0.315 (CDN$0.425) per share;

- issuance to the holders of the Series A and Series B promissory notes and the Series B preferred stock of one share purchase warrant for each $1.11 (CDN$1.50) principal amount of Series C promissory notes, with such warrants being exercisable at $0.315 (CDN$0.425) per share for a period of five years;

- issuance of up to $371,058 (CDN$500,000) of Series D promissory notes by our subsidiary, Voice Mobility Inc., together with one share purchase warrant for each $0.74 (CDN$1.00) principal of Series D

18

promissory note, with such share purchase warrants being exercisable at $0.315 (CDN$0.425) per share for a period of five years; and

- issuance of up to 1,176,471 units at $0.315 (CDN$0.425) per unit, each unit comprised of one common share and one share purchase warrant, with such share purchase warrants being exercisable at $0.315 (CDN$0.425) per share for a period of five years.

The Series C promissory notes will earn interest at the rate of 8% per annum and will mature on December 31, 2005. We have agreed to repay the Series C promissory notes at a rate equal to 10% of our subsidiaries' gross sales as and when generated. Repayment of the Series C promissory notes will be secured against the assets of our subsidiary, Voice Mobility Inc. and we will guarantee repayment of the Series C promissory notes.

The Series D promissory notes will be issued by our subsidiary, Voice Mobility Inc. The Series D promissory notes will earn interest at the rate of 8% per annum and will mature on December 31, 2005.

The share purchase warrants issued in connection with the Series C and Series D promissory notes will have a call feature by which we can demand exercise of the share purchase warrants if our common stock trades at a price equal to or greater than three times the applicable exercise price for a period of 30 consecutive days. If the share purchase warrants have not been exercised then such share purchase warrants will terminate on the date that is 120 days from the date such demand is given to the holders.

As a result of the restructuring, we may receive gross proceeds of up to $742,115 (CDN$1,000,000) in connection with the issuance of the Series D promissory notes and the units. As of August 13, 2003, we have received $54,289 (CDN$75,000) proceeds from the sale of the Series D promissory notes and $83,677 (CDN$115,600) proceeds from the sale of common shares and warrants.

Aliant Transactions

In February 2001, we entered into a three-year development agreement with Innovatia Inc., a shareholder and a wholly owned subsidiary of Aliant Inc. The purpose of the agreement was to develop a carrier classified product that we would exclusively own or license to Aliant to use as its primary hosted messaging solution for its business and residential customers. Under the agreement, Innovatia would license certain intellectual property to us on a non-exclusive, non-transferable basis for use in the development and verification of our current products and would provide specific professional, project management, administrative and support services for the development, testing and verification of our product with an actual telecommunications company.

On December 28, 2001, Innovatia and Voice Mobility Inc. agreed to terminate the three-year development agreement. In settlement of the services provided under this agreement, we issued to Innovatia a promissory note in the amount of $1,707,989 (CDN$2,720,142). Immediately thereafter, we repaid $132,059 (CDN$210,000) of the promissory note by issuing 500,000 common shares at a market price of $0.26 (CDN$0.42) per share.

The promissory note bears interest at prime plus 1% (prime rate at June 30, 2003 was 5.0%) and is repayable in quarterly installments until repaid in full. The amount payable each quarter is the lesser of $168,221 (CDN$226,678) and 40% of the net aggregate amount of invoices issued by us to Aliant, pursuant to the software license agreement discussed below, in the quarter. The maximum amount payable, if any, for the first two quarters ended June 30, 2002 will be due on October 1, 2002. All subsequent amounts payable, if any, will be due on or before the first business day following the quarter end date. In the event the invoiced amount for a particular quarter exceeds $168,221 (CDN$226,678), we will carry forward the difference between the invoiced amount and $168,221 (CDN$226,678) and include the difference in the calculation of maximum amount payable for subsequent quarters. We have the option, until December 31, 2004, to settle some or all of the promissory note, principal and interest, in cash, common shares or a combination thereof. If paid by common shares, then 500,000 of the shares will be valued at the lesser of the market price of our shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange and $0.56 (CDN$0.75) per share, and the value of the balance of any other shares issuable is determined by the weighted average trading price of our common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange over the ten trading days immediately prior to the date on which the common shares are to be issued.

19

After December 31, 2004, any amount of the promissory note which remains unpaid will continue to be settled as the lesser of $168,221 (CDN$226,678) and 40% of the net aggregate amount of invoices issued by us to Aliant in the quarter, however we are required to settle only with common shares and the number of common shares payable each quarter, if any, is determined by dividing the maximum amount payable by $1.16 (CDN$1.56).

We are required to obtain shareholder and regulatory approval to issue common shares to settle the promissory note. We have obtained shareholder and regulatory approval to issue up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock to settle all or a portion of the promissory note. If we do not obtain additional approval for further issuances of common stock, we can only repay the remaining balance of the promissory note, if any, in cash.

On July 1, 2003, the maximum amount payable to Aliant was $341,856 (CDN$460,651). If we were to make the election to settle this amount with common shares, this would result in the issuance of an additional 2,303,255 shares of our common stock to Aliant for such quarterly payments.

On March 4, 2002, Innovatia and Voice Mobility Inc. signed a new development agreement. The purpose of this agreement was to develop a carrier-grade unified communications product for the period January 1, 2002 to December 31, 2003. Innovatia would license certain intellectual property to us on a non-exclusive non-transferable basis for use in the development and verification of current products and would provide specific professional, project management, administrative and support services. In consideration for these services, we agreed to pay Innovatia a cash royalty within 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter equal to 10% on the gross quarterly revenue received from the sale of our products. On November 26, 2002, Innovatia terminated the development agreement. In accordance with the agreement, the royalty payments are to be payable on gross revenue for six months after the termination date.

In June 2002, we entered into a three-year software license agreement with Aliant Telecom Inc. The license agreement involves the licensing of our product to Aliant for its legacy voicemail replacement and further development of our product to satisfy Aliant's requirements. As part of the agreement, Aliant paid us $0.7 million (CDN$1.125 million) as an initial payment, which we received in August 2002. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, we recognized as revenue $461,379 (CDN$724,504) of the initial payment for delivery of software licenses and services. The remaining balance of the initial payment will be recognized as revenue when future product and services are delivered. At this time, we are unable to accurately predict when delivery will be made to Aliant because the timing of the delivery of services by us is based on extrinsic factors such as regulatory approval from the Canadian Radio Television and Telecommunications Commission, Aliant's customer demands, delivery an d development costs, timing of development cycles, third party deliverables and deployment plans for class of services based on Aliant's customer segmentation. Revenue from the Aliant contract currently is material to the Company's overall business and financial condition.

We currently anticipate that revenues will increase in the long-term as we increase our sales and marketing activities and introduce new versions of our software that are technologically feasible and of carrier class quality. We have implemented significant cost reductions and expect to keep our operating costs to a minimum until cash is available through financing or operating activities. Based on current projections, we anticipate revenues from Tier I telecommunications providers in 2003 generated through the replacement of legacy voice mail systems.

Trends and Uncertainties

Our ability to generate revenues in the future is dependent on when telecommunication companies will replace their legacy voicemail systems and implement new technology, like our enhanced messaging software. We cannot predict when telecommunication companies will adopt such technology and this causes some uncertainty with respect to the growth of and our ability to generate ongoing revenues.

The current general downturn in the telecommunications industry may be causing some telecommunications companies to delay making any capital expenditures in connection with replacing their legacy voicemail systems. If telecommunication companies delay their capital expenditures, then the growth of our revenues could also be delayed.

20

Future Operations

Presently, our revenues are not sufficient to meet operating and capital expenses and we have incurred operating losses since inception, which are likely to continue for the foreseeable future. Even if we were to receive additional revenues beyond the revenues that we expect to be generated from our contract with Aliant, we anticipate that we will have negative cash flows during the year ended December 31, 2003. Management projects that we will require an additional $3.0 to $3.5 million to fund our ongoing operating expenses, working capital requirements and extinguish our debt for the next twelve months, broken down as follows:

Estimated Funding Required During the Next Twelve Months

Operating expenses

 

Sales and Marketing

$700,000 - $800,000

General and Administrative

$800,000 - $900,000

Research and Development

$750,000 - $850,000

Capital Expenditures

$50,000 - $100,000

Working capital

$400,000 - $500,000

Debt

 

Payment of interest on promissory notes

$300,000 - $350,000

Total

$3,000,000 - $3,500,000

As at June 30, 2003, we had a working capital deficiency of $2,712,727. On December 30, 2002, we arranged a debt financing in the form of the Series B promissory notes whereby we had available to us, subject to meeting certain milestones, $1,335,807 (CDN$1,800,000) which we used to fund operations through to the middle of July, 2003. As noted above, on July 4, 2003, we received conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange for the sale of up to $371,058 (CDN$500,000) in Series D promissory notes and $371,058 (CDN$500,000) of common shares and warrants in equity private placements. We believe that the funds raised from this debt/equity financing will fund operations through to the beginning of November, 2003. As of August 13, 2003, we have received $54,289 (CDN$75,000) proceeds from the sale of the Series D promissory notes and $83,677 (CDN$115,600) proceeds from the sale of common shares and warrants. We anticipate that we will have to raise additional cash of a minimum of $1.2 million no later than October 15, 2003 to provide us with working capital to continue our normal operations. Our debt obligations in terms of the Series A and Series B promissory notes when converted into the Series C promissory notes will extend the maturity date of these notes to December 31, 2005.

We plan to raise the capital required to meet these immediate short-term needs, and additional capital required to meet the balance of our estimated funding requirements for the twelve months, primarily through the private placement of our securities.

Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, in their report on the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002, our independent chartered accountants included an explanatory paragraph regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern in their audit report.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as the continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further financing, successful and sufficient market acceptance of our current products and any new products that we may introduce, the continuing successful development of our products and related technologies, and, finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.

21

There are no assurances that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. We are pursuing various financing alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease the operation of our business.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our consolidated financial statements is critical to an understanding of our operating results and financial position.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are derived from sales of software licenses, hardware and maintenance and training services. We sell software licenses with maintenance and training services, hardware on a stand-alone basis and bundled arrangements including software, hardware and maintenance and training services. We generally license our software to customers for an indefinite period of time.

We recognize revenue in accordance with Statement of Position SOP 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition" and Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements".

SOP 97-2 requires that the total arrangement fee from software arrangements that include rights to multiple software products, post contract customer support and/or other services be allocated to each element of the arrangement based on their relative fair values. Under SOP 97-2, the determination of fair value is based on vendor specific objective evidence.

Software revenue is recognized under SOP 97-2 when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, when all elements essential to the functionality of the software including installation and training are delivered in accordance with the terms and conditions of the customer contracts, when the fee is fixed or determinable, and when collection is reasonably assured. Fees are considered fixed or determinable if the contracts are similar to others for which we have a standard business practice and a history of successful collection under the original payment terms.

For software arrangements involving multiple elements, we allocate revenue to each element based on vendor specific objective evidence of relative fair values, which are derived by allocating a value to each element that is based upon the prices charged when the element is sold separately. Our product and services are generally sold as part of a contract involving software, hardware, maintenance and training. Vendor specific objective evidence is used to determine the relative fair values of these various elements in each of the contracts.

Revenue for hardware sold separately is recognized under Staff Accounting Bulletin 101. Hardware revenue, net of trade discounts is recognized upon shipment or when all elements essential to functionality are complete and when all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied and collection is reasonably assured. When contracts contain specific contingencies, we defer revenue recognition until such time as the contingencies are resolved.

Revenues from maintenance are recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement, generally one year, and revenues from training are generally recognized as the services are performed.

Software Development Costs

Costs incurred internally to develop computer software products and the costs to acquire externally developed software products (which have no alternative future use) to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed are charged to expense until the technological feasibility of the product has been established. After technological feasibility is

22

established and until the product is available for general release, software development, product enhancements and acquisition costs will be capitalized and amortized on a product-by-product basis.

Stock Based Compensation

We account for stock-based employee compensation arrangements using the intrinsic value method in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and comply with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123". The pro forma disclosure of stock-based compensation is included in note 12(d) to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2002. Under APB 25, compensation expense for employees is based on the difference between the fair value of our stock and the exercise price if any, on the date of the grant. We account for stock issued to non-employees at fair value in accordance with SFAS 123. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing mo del to determine the fair value of stock options granted to non-employees.

RISK FACTORS

Much of the information included in this quarterly report includes or is based upon estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". Such forward-looking statements include any projections or estimates, made by us and our management, in connection with our business operations. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions, or other future performance suggested herein. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.

Such estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements" involve various risks and uncertainties as outlined below. We caution readers of this quarterly report that important factors in some cases have affected and, in the future, could materially affect actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in any such estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". In evaluating us, our business and any investment in our business, readers should carefully consider the following factors.

We have had negative cash flows from operations and if we are not able to obtain further financing our business operations may fail.

To date, we have had negative cash flows from operations and have depended on sales of our equity securities and debt financing to meet our cash requirements. We have estimated that we will require between $3.0 and $3.5 million to carry out our business plan in the next twelve months, and we may need to raise additional funds to:

- Support our planned rapid growth and carry out our business plan,

- Develop new or enhanced services and technologies,

- Increase our marketing efforts,

- Acquire complementary businesses or technologies,

- Respond to regulatory requirements, and

- Respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements.

We may not be able to obtain additional equity or debt financing on acceptable terms when we need it. Even if financing is available it may not be available on terms that are favourable to us or in sufficient amounts to satisfy our requirements. If we require, but are unable to obtain, additional financing in the future, we may be unable to implement our business plan and our growth strategies, respond to changing business or economic conditions,

23

withstand adverse operating results, consummate desired acquisitions and compete effectively. More importantly, if we are unable to raise further financing when required, our continued operations may have to be scaled down or even ceased.

We have a history of losses and fluctuating operating results, which raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Since inception through June 30, 2003, we have incurred aggregate net losses of $35 million. Our loss from operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 was $3.8 million and for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $1.5 million. We also incurred a loss from operations for each of the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000. There is no assurance that we will operate profitably or will generate positive cash flow in the future. In addition, our operating results in the future may be subject to significant fluctuations due to many factors not within our control, such as the unpredictability of when customers will order products, the size of customers' orders, the demand for our products, and the level of competition and general economic conditions.

Although we anticipate that revenues will increase, we expect an increase in development costs and operating costs. Consequently, we expect to incur operating losses and negative cash flow until our products gain market acceptance sufficient to generate a commercially viable and sustainable level of sales, and/or additional products are developed and commercially released and sales of such products made so that we are operating in a profitable manner. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, as described in the explanatory paragraph on our independent chartered accountants' report on the December 31, 2002 consolidated financial statements. The audited or unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.

We could lose our competitive advantages if we are not able to protect any proprietary technology and intellectual property rights against infringement, and any related litigation could be time-consuming and costly.

Our success and ability to compete depends to a significant degree on the proprietary technology. If any of our competitors copies or otherwise gains access to the proprietary technology or develops similar software independently, we would not be able to compete as effectively. The measures we take to protect the proprietary technology and other intellectual property rights are currently based upon a combination of copyright, trade secret and trademark laws, but may not be adequate to prevent their unauthorized use. Further, the laws of foreign countries may provide inadequate protection of such intellectual property rights. We may need to bring legal claims to enforce or protect such intellectual property rights. Any litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and diversions of resources. In addition, notwithstanding the rights we have secured in our intellectual property, other persons may bring claims against us that we have infringed on their intel lectual property rights, including claims based upon the content we license from third parties or claims that our intellectual property right interests are not valid. Any claims against us, with or without merit, could be time consuming and costly to defend or litigate, divert our attention and resources, result in the loss of goodwill associated with our service marks or require us to make changes to our websites or other of our technologies.

We hold no patents on our technology and may not be able to protect our proprietary technology.

We do not have and do not intend to apply for patents on our products. We currently rely on copyright, trade secrets and trademark laws to protect our proprietary intellectual property. Management believes that the patent application process in many countries in which we intend to sell products would be time-consuming and expensive and any patent protection might be out of date by the time the patent were to be granted.

The departure of any of our management or significant technical personnel, the breach of their confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations, or the failure to achieve our intellectual property objectives may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We believe our success depends upon the knowledge and experience of our management and technical personnel and our ability to market our existing products and to develop new products. Employees may and have left us to go to work for a competitor. While we believe that we have adequately protected our proprietary technology, and we will take all appropriate and reasonable legal measures to protect it, the use of our processes by a competitor could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our ability to compete successfully and achieve future

24

revenue growth will depend, in part, on our ability to protect our proprietary technology and operate without infringing upon the rights of others. We may not be able to successfully protect our proprietary technology, and our proprietary technology may otherwise become known or be independently developed by competitors. Competitors' products may add features, increase performance or sell at lower prices. We cannot predict whether our products will continue to compete successfully with such existing rival architectures or whether new architectures will establish or gain market acceptance or provide increased competition with our products.

Substantially all of our assets, all of our directors and a majority of our officers are outside the United States, with the result that it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or any of our directors or officers.

Substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States and we do not currently maintain a permanent place of business within the United States. In addition, all of our directors and a majority of our officers are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States, and all or a substantial portion of such persons' assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or our officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. Consequently, you may be effectively prevented from pursuing remedies under U.S. federal securities laws against them.

We are currently dependent on a limited number of customers and if we are unable to diversify our customer base and we lose one or more of these customers, then our revenues may decrease significantly.

Sales to two customers, Ikano Communications and Haddad Advanced Technology Company, comprised 65% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Sales to one customer, Aliant, Inc. and its subsidiaries comprised 84% of our revenue in the year ended December 31, 2002 and 56% in the year ended December 31, 2001. Sales to three customers comprised 93% of revenues in the year ended December 31, 2000. If our business strategy is successful, we expect that we will become less dependent on such significant customers in the future as sales increase. However, if we are unable to successfully diversify our customer base and if we lost one or more of these limited number of customers, our revenues would decrease significantly and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.

We operate in a highly competitive industry and our failure to compete effectively may adversely affect our ability to generate revenue.

The market for unified messaging software is highly competitive and subject to frequent product introductions with improved price and/or performance characteristics. Even if we are able to introduce products, which meet evolving customer requirements in a timely manner, there can be no assurance that our new products will gain market acceptance. Many companies, including UTStarcom, Comverse, Glenayre, Sema Oryx, Lucent and others have greater financial, technical, sales and marketing resources, better name recognition and a larger customer base than ours. In addition, many of our large competitors may offer customers a broader product line, which may provide a more comprehensive solution than our current solutions. Increased competition in the unified messaging industry could result in significant price competition, reduced profit margins or loss of market share, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to generate revenues and successfully operate our business.

Rapid technological changes in our industry could render our products non-competitive or obsolete and consequently affect our ability to generate revenues.

The telecommunications industry is characterized by rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards. We believe that our success will depend on our ability to continuously develop our products, to enhance our current products and to introduce them promptly into the market. We can make no assurance that our technology or systems will not become obsolete due to the introduction of alternative technologies. If we are unable to continue to develop and introduce new products to meet technology changes and changes in market demands, our business and operating results, including our ability to generate revenues, could be adversely affected.

25

If we fail to effectively manage our growth our future business results could be harmed and our managerial and operational resources may be strained.

As we proceed with the development of our technology, we expect to experience significant and rapid growth in the scope and complexity of our business. We will need to add staff to market our services, manage operations, handle sales and marketing efforts and perform finance and accounting functions. We will be required to hire a broad range of additional personnel in order to successfully advance our operations. This growth is likely to place a strain on our management and operational resources. The failure to develop and implement effective systems, or to hire and retain sufficient personnel for the performance of all of the functions necessary to effectively service and manage our potential business, or the failure to manage growth effectively, could have a materially adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Our future growth and our ability to generate revenues may be materially and adversely affected by continued reductions in spending on telecommunications infrastructure by our customers.

A continued slowdown in capital spending by telecommunication service providers may affect our revenues more than we currently expect. Moreover, the significant slowdown in capital spending by telecommunication service providers has created uncertainty as to market demand for the type of products we produce. As a result, revenues and operating results for a particular period can be difficult to predict. In addition, there can be no certainty as to the severity or duration of the current industry adjustment. As a result of the recent changes in industry and market conditions, many of our customers have reduced their capital spending on telecommunications infrastructure. Our revenues and operating results are expected to continue to be affected by the continued reductions in capital spending on telecommunications infrastructure by our customers.

Our common stock is illiquid and the price of our common stock may be negatively impacted by factors which are unrelated to our operations.

Our common stock currently trades on a limited basis on the OTC Bulletin Board and the Toronto Stock Exchange. The market price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of other telephony companies, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting our competitors or us. In addition, the stock market is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.

A decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise further working capital and adversely impact our ability to continue our normal operations.

A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital. Because our operations have been primarily financed through the sale of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could be especially detrimental to our liquidity and our operations. Such reductions would force us to reallocate funds from other planned uses and would have a significant negative effect on our business plans and operations, including our ability to develop new products and continue our current operations. If our stock price declines, there can be no assurance that we can raise additional capital or generate funds from operations sufficient to meet our obligations. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital in the future, we may not be able to have the resources to continue our normal operations.

Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and Nevada law contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change of control and could limit the market price of our common stock.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock. To date, 1 share of Series A preferred stock has been designated and is issued and outstanding and, 666,667 shares of Series B preferred stock have been designated, of which 585,698 are issued and outstanding. Our board of directors, without any action by stockholders, is authorized to designate and issue shares of preferred stock in any

26

class or series as it deems appropriate and to establish the rights, preferences and privileges of these shares, including dividends, liquidation and voting rights. The rights of holders of shares of preferred stock that may be issued may be superior to the rights granted to the holders of existing shares of our common stock. Further, the ability of our board of directors to designate and issue such undesignated shares could impede or deter an unsolicited tender offer or takeover proposal and the issuance of additional shares having preferential rights could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of holders of our common stock.

Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC's penny stock regulations, which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors". The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the pe nny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the st ock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

NASD sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the "penny stock" rules described above, the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, the NASD believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The NASD requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

If we elect to pay fees to Innovatia in common stock then our shareholders will be subject to further, and maybe significant, dilution.

On December 28, 2001, we issued to Innovatia a promissory note in the amount of $1,707,989 (CDN$2,720,142) of which $1,948,116 (CDN$2,625,086) remains outstanding at June 30, 2003. The amount payable each quarter is the lesser of $168,221 (CDN$226,678) and 40% of the net aggregate amount of invoices issued by us to Aliant in the quarter. The quarterly amounts payable, if any, will be due on or before the first business day following the quarter end date. On October 1, 2002 the amount payable was $168,221 (CDN$226,678) on December 31, 2002 the amount payable was $168,221 (CDN$226,678) on March 31, 2003 the amount payable was $4,967 (CDN$7,295) and on June 30, 2003 the amount payable was $nil (CDN$nil) for total payments owing of $341,856 (CDN$460,651). We have the option, until December 31, 2004, to settle some or all of the promissory note, principal and interest, in cash, common shares or a combination of cash and common shares. After December 31, 2004, we are required to pay any

27

amount of the promissory note, which remains unpaid through the issuance of our common shares. If all or a significant portion of these payments were made in shares of our common stock, this would result in substantial additional dilution in the future.

We are involved in a lawsuit with a former employee, which if decided against us may have a negative impact on our continuing operations.

On December 31, 2001, Budd Stewart, one of our former employees, commenced a lawsuit claiming $1,825,892. Although management believes there is no merit to this lawsuit, if the lawsuit is decided against us in the amounts claimed, it may have a negative impact on our continuing operations if we do not have sufficient capital at the time to pay any such amounts.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, which could impact our results of operations and financial condition. We manage our exposure to these market risks through our regular operating and financing activities.

We may face foreign currency exchange risk because we expect that the majority of our revenues will be denominated in U.S. dollars in the future and a majority of our operating costs are incurred in Canadian dollars. The fluctuations in the foreign exchange rate between the U.S. and Canadian currency will result in fluctuations in our annual and quarterly results. Management does not expect that it will employ the use of foreign currency derivative financial instruments that would allow the reduction in our exposure to exchange rate movements.

In the event we have a surplus of cash on hand at any time, we will invest such cash in a short-term investment portfolio consisting of term deposits with an average maturity of less than 90 days. These short-term investments are subject to interest rate risk and we manage this risk by maintaining sufficient cash balances such that we are typically able to hold our investments to maturity.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, within the 90 days prior to the filing date of this quarterly report, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our company's disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our company's management, including our company's president and chief executive officer. Based upon that evaluation, our company's president and chief executive officer concluded that our company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have been no significant changes in our company's internal controls or in other factors, which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date we carried out our evaluation.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company's reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company's reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our company's president and chief executive officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

On August 8, 2001, Sharon Ho commenced an action in the Superior Court of California against our company and its operating subsidiary to recover damages as a result of an alleged breach of contract which occurred prior to April 1, 1999. On October 10, 2001, we entered into an indemnification agreement with Robert Cashman, the former majority shareholder of Equity Capital Group, to indemnify us against any claims or liabilities that existed

28

prior to the reverse acquisition by Voice Mobility Inc. of Equity Capital Group, including the claim by Sharon Ho. On October 10, 2001, we also entered into a settlement agreement with Robert Cashman, whereby he was to pay us $290,000 to cover the costs of a proposed settlement with Sharon Ho and additional related legal expenses. The $290,000 was to be paid in installments from October 10, 2001 to October 25, 2002. In addition to the indemnification and settlement agreements, we have also obtained a security agreement, a guaranty agreement and a stock pledge agreement to ensure that Mr. Cashman would make the required payments. On October 15, 2001, we executed a settlement agreement and mutual release with Ms. Ho. The settlement agreement required us to pay Ms. Ho $252,500 to be paid in installments from October 10, 2001 to October 1, 2002, which we paid in full as at September 30, 2002. On March 8, 2002, William Krebs, a shareholder and director of our company, agreed to indemnify our co mpany against any losses that may be incurred by us on the collectibility of the amounts agreed to be paid by the former majority shareholder of Equity Capital Group. On September 16, 2002, Mr. Cashman filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 13 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Central District of California (Case No. SA02-16986 JR.) We took action under the pledge agreement and the security agreement and took possession of certain assets of Mr. Cashman. On January 27, 2003, we sold a portion of those assets and realized cash of approximately $53,000. We are still in the process of selling the assets that we took possession of from Mr. Cashman and we anticipate that we will realize further cash proceeds from the sale of those assets.

On December 31, 2001, Budd Stewart, a former employee of our subsidiary, filed a Writ of Summons and Statement of Claim with the Supreme Court of British Columbia (Vancouver Registry), alleging that his employment was terminated and that we breached the terms of stock option agreement. The relief sought by Mr. Stewart is damages under several causes of action for an aggregate of approximately $1,825,892. In our Statement of Defence, we deny that there was an existing employment agreement with Mr. Stewart and deny that we have breached the terms of any stock option agreement. We believe that there is no substantive merit to the claims made by Mr. Stewart and we intend to vigorously defend the action. In October 2002 and June 2003, the parties conducted examinations for discovery. A trial date has been scheduled for November 2003.

Other than as set out above, to our knowledge we are not a party to any other litigation as at August 14, 2003. We anticipate that, from time to time, we periodically may become subject to other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business. We are unable to ascertain the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability or financial impact of the above matters which seek damages of material or indeterminate amounts, and therefore cannot determine whether these actions, suits, claims or proceedings will, individually or collectively, have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. We intend to vigorously defend these actions, suits, claims and proceedings.

Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds.

On April 4, 2003, in connection with the exercise of exchangeable shares of Voice Mobility Canada Limited, we issued 662,500 common shares for no additional consideration to one non-U.S. person in an offshore transaction relying on Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

On June 20, 2003, in connection with the exercise of exchangeable shares of Voice Mobility Canada Limited we issued 1,325,000 common shares for no additional consideration to one non-U.S. person in an offshore transaction relying on Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

None.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
