SIMEX TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Financial Statements

Basis of Presentation

On December 5, 2003, the Company acquired Remote Business, Inc. (“RBI”), a newly-formed subsidiary of Probity Investigations, Inc. (“Probity”), in exchange for 16,000,000 newly-issued shares of the Company’s common stock. Immediately prior to the acquisition, Probity transferred security equipment inventory with a fair value of $550,000 and the operations of its subsidiary, Remote Business Management, LLC (“RBM”), excluding all recorded assets and liabilities of RBM, to RBI. The acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase. Because the Company is a non-operating company and the common shares of the Company are thinly-traded, the purchase price will be deemed to be the fair value of the assets acquired. Accordingly, no goodwill will be recorded in the acquisition. The pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or the financial position that would have occurred if the acquisition had been consummated as of the assumed date, nor is it necessarily indicative of the future operating results or financial position of the combined companies.

The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet is based on the Company’s historical balance sheet and the financial statements of RBM appearing elsewhere in this report and has been prepared to reflect the Company’s acquisition of RBM as of September 30, 2003. The unaudited combined condensed pro forma statements of operations are based on the Company’s historical statements of operations and the financial statements of RBM appearing elsewhere in this report, and combines the Company’s results of operations and RBM for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and the year ended December 31, 2002 as if the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2002. These pro forma unaudited combined condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s historical financial statements and notes thereto and the financial statements of RBM included elsewhere in this report.

SIMEX TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Financial Statements

(1) Pro Forma Adjustments

The pro forma adjustments in the accompanying pro forma combined condensed financial statements have been prepared to reflect the acquisition of the operations of Remote Business Management, LLC (“RBM”) and security equipment inventory for an aggregate purchase price of $550,000, which consists of 16,000,000 newly-issued shares of the Company’s common stock. The purchase price will be allocated to inventory, the sole tangible asset to be acquired.

Pro forma adjustments are made to reflect:

      (A) Elimination of assets and liabilities of RBM not acquired and elimination of the member’s equity account of RBM.

      (B) Issuance of 16,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for the fair value of inventory acquired.

(2) Per Share Information

Basic and diluted net loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and for the year ended December 31, 2002 was computed using the 16,555,000 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding, plus the 16,000,000 shares issued for the purchase price.

Report of Independent Public Accountants

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Remote Business Management, LLC

We have audited balance sheets of Remote Business Management, LLC as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related statements of operations, changes in member’s equity and cash flows for the years then ended.

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 that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Remote Business Management, LLC as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

REMOTE BUSINESS MANAGEMENT, LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2001 and 2002 and September 30, 2003

 
(1)    Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
 
   Organization and Nature of Operations
Remote Business Management, LLC (the “Company” or “RBM”), a Georgia limited liability company that was wholly-owned by Probity Investigations, Inc. (“Probity”), is engaged in the design, installation, servicing and monitoring of digital surveillance security systems for business and industry. The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of RBM since its formation on April 23, 2002 and the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses applicable to the business prior to its formation when it operated as a division of Probity.
 
   The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2003 have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and allocations, consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included.
 
   The balance sheets include all of the assets and liabilities specifically identifiable with the business acquired, and the statements of operations include all revenue and expense accounts specifically identifiable with the business acquired. Unrelated transactions and accounts have been eliminated through member’s equity.
 
(2)    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
   Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in United States of America 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 financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
   Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
 
   Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from five to seven years.
