FONEFRIEND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2003
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
A. Background
FoneFriend, Inc. ("FoneFriend" or the "Company") was incorporated on April 24,
2001, under the laws of the State of Nevada, and on November 21, 2002, was
merged with and into FoneFriend, Inc., a Delaware corporation. The Company
maintains a corporate office at 2722 Loker Avenue, Suite G, Carlsbad, California
92008. The Company's telephone number is: (760) 607-2330.
The Company is a development stage enterprise and has not generated any revenue
during its history. The primary business of the Company is to market an Internet
telephony device and related services to customers worldwide, called the
"FoneFriend". The underlying technology of FoneFriend has been licensed by the
Company from FoneFriend Systems, Inc. and will enable the Company's subscribers
to make and receive unlimited long distance telephone calls over the Internet,
using only their standard residiential telephone set (without the need for a
computer), for a low monthly fee of about $10.00 or less. Due to the small cost
of transmitting calls over the Internet, the Company anticipates that it will
realize significant profit margins, in excess of the traditional
telecommunications industry.
B. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") which contemplates
continuation of the Company as a going concern. Management is attempting to
raise additional capital.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Fiscal Year
The Company's fiscal year is March 31 (after the above-described merger of
FoneFriend, Inc. of Nevada with and into FoneFriend, Inc. of Delaware). The
accompanying unaudited financial statements are for September 30, 2003 and the
three month period then ended.
B. Significant Estimates
In the process of preparing its financial statements in accordance with GAAP,
the Company estimates the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities that
are subjective

FONEFRIEND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued
in nature. The primary estimates included in the Company's financial statements
include capitalized development costs and the ongoing value of its purchased
technology license.
C. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with
maturity dates of three months or less at the date of purchase. These items are
carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity
dates.
D. Prepaid Expenses and other Current Assets
The Company has cash outlays in advance of expense recognition for items such as
interest, financing fees, and service contracts. All amounts identified as
prepaid expenses that will be utilized during the next twelve months are
identified as current assets, while any portion that will not be utilized during
the next twelve months are classified as non-current assets.
E. Furniture and Equipment
Furniture and equipment are carried at cost and depreciated over the estimated
useful lives of the individual assets.
F. Capitalized Development Costs
Capitalized development costs consist of expenditures made by the Company to
improve the product and develop marketing channels for the product, and which
are deemed by management to have future value to the Company. Such capitalized
development costs will be amortized over the estimated useful life once product
sales begin.
G. Technology Rights, FoneFriend License
The Company purchased a license to use the FoneFriend technology for a period of
ten years from FoneFriend Systems, Inc. under a license agreement dated April
30, 2001. This license agreement allows the Company to manufacture, market and
utilize a proprietary technology referred to as FoneFriend. During the
development stage operations, the Company is carrying the asset at cost and will
begin amortization over the remaining life of the license when product sales
begin. The remaining value to the Company will be reviewed quarterly and if
management determines that impairment of the asset has occurred, the carrying
value will be adjusted accordingly.

FONEFRIEND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued
H. Stock in FoneFriend Systems, Inc.

investment. Such investment is carried at cost and will be evaluated
periodically by management to determine whether impairment has occurred. Should
management determine that the value has been impaired, the carrying value will
be adjusted accordingly.
NOTE 3 - DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

NOTE 4 - MERGER AND CAPITAL STOCK
The merger of FoneFriend, Inc. of Nevada with and into FoneFriend, Inc. of
Delaware was consummated on November 21, 2002 wherein the assets of FoneFriend,
Inc. of Nevada were acquired by Universal Broadband Networks, Inc. ("UBN") in a
tax-free reorganization pursuant to IRC 368 (the "Merger"). The Merger was
effectuated as a "C" type reorganization whereby UBN issued stock in exchange
for all of the assets FoneFriend, Inc. of Nevada, after which that corporation
was dissolved. UBN was the surviving corporation and changed its name to
FoneFriend, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) immediately subsequent to the Merger.
Pursuant to the
- 6 -
FONEFRIEND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued
express terms of the Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization, as approved by the
U.S. Bankruptcy court (the "Plan"), the Merger was accomplished as follows:
1. All of UBN's issued and outstanding shares of capital stock were cancelled
and extinguished and the stockholders of UBN prior to the Merger have no
further interest or rights in UBN.
2. UBN issued 2,200,000 shares of newly created common stock in favor of
FoneFriend, Inc. (Nevada corporation) in exchange for all of the Nevada
corporation's assets and 115,750 of newly created common stock in favor of
a Liquidating Trust for the benefit of UBN's creditors. As a result, the
merged entity had a total of 2,315,750 shares of newly created common stock
issued and outstanding, of which former shareholders of the dissolved
Nevada corporation owned 95%, and J. Michael Issa, Esq., as Trustee of the
Liquidating Trust (which was created under the Plan), owned 5%.
Additionally, the Liquidating Trust was granted a conditional put option
under the Plan whereby it could sell its shares back to the Company for up
to $3 Million dollars, contingent upon the Company having sufficient
available capital surplus at the time of such transaction. This option was
valid for a period of one year after trading commenced in the Company's
securities.
3. The issuance of stock pursuant to the Plan, as filed within the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court, was ordered by the Court to be exempt from all applicable
Federal, State and local securities law, pursuant to 11 U.S.C. ss.1145 (a).
4. The dissolved Nevada corporation's management distributed the newly issued
2,200,000 shares of FoneFriend, Inc. (Delaware corporation) to its former
shareholders, on a pro-rata basis. Each of such former shareholders
received one share of stock in FoneFriend, Inc. (Delaware corporation) for
every four shares held in the dissolved Nevada corporation.
5. Immediately subsequent to the Merger, the Company authorized the issuance
of 820,361 shares of a newly created Series A Preferred Stock (each share
of which is convertible into one share of common stock) to be issued to
shareholders of preferred stock in the dissolved Nevada corporation prior
to the Merger.
6. The Company then issued 4,600,000 shares of common stock to various
management personnel and consultants in order to hire and/or retain their
services. The Company also issued 423,000 shares of common stock to Dennis
H. Johnston, Esq. as compensation for his services in connection with the
Merger. Additionally, the Company issued 307,250 shares of common stock to
the Liquidating Trust so as to be in compliance with the Anti-Dilution
Protection provisions of the Plan.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Company's financial statements and related footnotes included elsewhere
herein.
Statements contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations which are not historical facts are
forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Examples of
such forward looking statements include the Company's expectations regarding its
intended plan of operation, the potential sale of its product, the Company's
planned financing of this venture and the sufficiency of the Company's available
liquidity for working capital, the Company's belief that its technology-based
business will grow and result in profitability, that it is positioned to take
advantage of new opportunities, and that it will focus on strengthening and
growing its business and commercializing innovative technologies and services.
Actual results may differ materially from those stated or implied in the forward
looking statements. Further, certain forward looking statements are based upon
assumptions of future events which may not prove to be accurate and are subject
to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those set forth or implied by forward looking statements. These risks and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those referred to in the
Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB, for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2003, including the Company's entry into a new commercial business, its ability
to access the capital markets and obtain working capital, risks associated with
technological changes in the market for telecommunications and voice
transmission over the Internet, risks of competition in the emerging internet
telephony industry, and other risks described in the Company's Securities and
Exchange Commission filings.
OVERVIEW
The Company is a development stage enterprise and has not generated any
revenue during its history. The primary business of the Company is to market an
Internet telephony device and related services to customers worldwide, called
the "FoneFriend". The underlying technology of FoneFriend has been licensed by
the Company from FoneFriend Systems, Inc. and will enable the Company's
subscribers to make and receive unlimited long distance telephone calls over the
Internet, using only their standard residential telephone set (without the need
for a computer), for a low monthly fee of about $10.00 or less. Due to the small
cost of transmitting calls over the Internet, the Company anticipates that it
will realize significant profit margins, in excess of the traditional
telecommunications industry.
The Company has experienced significant losses during development stage
operations and has yet to realize any revenues from its operations.
During the forth quarter of fiscal year 2003, management of the Company
evaluated the future benefit of the Company's capitalized development costs and
determined that it was prudent to write down the value of that asset to its
estimated fair value.
- 8 -
During the first three quarters of the current fiscal year, the Company's
management focused its efforts primarily on reducing its overhead, to conserve
financial resources, and the hiring of consultants that would help further its
quest for financing, as well as assist in implementing the Company's intended
plan of business and preparing the technical infrastructure and marketing
support necessary for its operational stage.
To date, the Company has established the foundation necessary upon which it
can build a next generation telecommunications company, utilizing the Internet
and VoIP technology, that will carry customer calls at rates which are
dramatically lower than traditional international long distance carriers with
excellent quality.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company had no revenue during the three months ended December 31, 2003,
or during its entire history.
Expenses of the Company for the third quarter of the current fiscal year,
ending December 31, 2003, decreased to $134,760 from $315,883 for the three
month period ending September 30, 2003. The decrease was due primarily to a
reduction in consulting fees as the Company has dramatically curtailed
operations until financing can be obtained. Current expenses consist primarily
of consultant fees, officer salaries, overhead and other general expenses
related to continuing operations, seeking financing and preparing to bring the
Company's product to market.
In November of 2003, the Company entered into a strategic relationship with
Winsonic Holdings, Ltd., whereby Winsonic agreed to co-locate and house the
Company's global network servers and gateway equipment at the Level 3 facilities
rented by Winsonic. This provides the Company with access to a state-of-the-art,
fiber optic network that is expected to greatly improve the voice quality and
reliability of service of the FoneFriend product. In a related agreement, the
Company hired the services of Winston Johnson, president of Winsonic, to serve
as the Company's Chief Technology Officer. This agreement provides for the
issuance of up to 350,000 shares of common stock in exchange for services to be
provided by Mr. Johnson over a 12 month period.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company issued 170,000 shares
of stock to two consultants for services provided to the Company during the
quarter. The consulting contract for one of the consultants was cancelled due to
lack of performance or results. Also, on November 22, 2003, the Company's board
of directors authorized the issuance of 2,443,083 shares of common stock as a
dividend to its preferred stockholders and 4,000,000 shares of common stock to
current management, in settlement of its breach of contract with these
individuals. In addition, 814,361 shares of the Company's Series A Convertible,
Preferred Stock was automatically converted into a like number of shares of
common stock as of November 22, 2003. However, the Company's transfer agent was
not instructed to issue any of the foregoing shares until January 12, 2004.
In December, 2003, the Company entered into a preliminary agreement for up
to $5 Million in equity financing with an unaffiliated investor. In connection
with this agreement, the investor advanced the Company $100,000 and received a
one year, convertible note with interest at 15% per annum. The note is
convertible at a 25% discount to the market price of the Company's common stock
at the time of conversion. Also, in connection with this transaction, the
Company issued 200,000 warrants to purchase the Company's common stock at $0.20
per share. As of December 31, 2003, the Company had not entered into any final
agreement for the equity financing.
FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS
The Company anticipates that it will market its product through direct
marketing to segments of the population that use significant long distance
service to foreign countries.
The initial target markets will be areas in which the population includes
significant European, Hispanic and Asian segments. These segments of the
population typically spend substantial time on international long distance calls
to their native countries.
Other products may be developed that compete with the Company's product,
thereby reducing future potential revenue.
Further, since the Company's product requires significant lead time in the
manufacturing process, any delay in filling orders could affect customer
satisfaction.
THE LOSS OF OUR KEY PERSONNEL COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS.
The loss of the services of the Company's CEO and other key consultants or
employees could have a material adverse effect on our operations, as hiring
replacements would most likely involve the payment of salaries, for which we do
not currently have the financial resources. Our inability to hire suitable
replacements could have a material adverse effect on our ability to continue
operating.
THE COMPANY IS IN BREACH OF KEY EMPLOYMENT AND CONSULTING AGREEMENTS.
For the last calendar year, the Company has failed to make the required
payments of $7,500 per month to Jackelyn Giroux, the President and Director,
under her employment agreement. There is no guarantee that she will continue to
work without being paid. However, on November 22, 2003, the Company's board of
directors agreed to amend her Employment Agreement and issued her 1,000,000
shares of common stock and promised to pay back salary upon receipt of
financing. Additionally, the Company agreed to an anti-dilution clause to
maintain her current equity ownership in the Company. The Company believes that
the loss of Ms. Giroux as President would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's ability to continue operating.
For the last calendar year, the Company has failed to make the required
payments of $10,000 a month to Gary A. Rasmussen, a Consultant and founder,
under the terms of his Consulting Agreement. There is no guarantee that he will
continue to work without being paid. However, on November 22, 2003, the
Company's board of directors agreed to amend his Consulting agreement and issued
him 3,000,000 shares of common stock and promised to pay past due amounts under
his agreement upon receipt of financing. Additionally, the Company agreed to an
anti-dilution clause to maintain his equity ownership in the Company at 25%. The
Company believes that the loss of Mr. Rasmussen would have a material adverse
effect on the Company's ability to continue operating.
- 9 -
ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS ARE SET FORTH IN THE COMPANY'S FORM 10KSB, AS FILED ON
JULY 16, 2003, FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2003, WHICH ARE HEREBY
ADOPTED AND INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 2003, the Company had limited working capital and the
Company had no material unused sources of liquid assets. Also at December 31,
2003, the Company had no existing credit facility. As a result, the Company is
delinquent in certain general and administrative expenses and has a shortage of
cash to pay its pending accounts payable.
A part of the Company's strategy is to seek external financing to grow its
commercial business. Management is presently negotiating with several qualified
investment sources in order to obtain the necessary financing required to
implement its intended plan of business. The Company's operating capital for the
current quarter was provided primarily through a loan from an unaffiliated third
party and accrual of officers' salaries and consulting fees.
While the Company intends to generate working capital from its product and
related services in the future, we expect our minimum capital needs during the
current calendar year to be approximately $3 Million. This amount will primarily
be used for manufacturing, implementing a large scale network system, marketing
programs and for general working capital. However, the Company may not be able
to obtain this required financing, or such financing may not be available on
acceptable terms. Due to the Company's historical operating losses, there can be
no assurance that projected capital requirements will not substantially exceed
current and future capital resources. This could result in a significant and
material adverse effect on our ability to continue operating.
Additional working capital needs of the Company may require issuance of
equity securities, either on a public or private basis. Such issuances would, if
consummated, affect the ongoing capital structure of the Company and may result
in substantial dilution to shareholders. If additional funds are raised through
the issuance of equity, convertible debt, or similar securities of the Company,
the percentage of ownership of the Company's current shareholders will be
reduced, and such new securities may have rights or preferences senior to those
of the common stock held be current shareholders. To this extent, the Company
has recently entered into a preliminary agreement with an unaffiliated third
party to provide up to $3 Million in an equity line of credit. This agreement
provides the Company with a series of put options whereby the third party will
purchase shares of the Company's common stock at a discount to the current bid
price. In connection with this preliminary agreement, the Company was obligated
to cover legal expenses necessary to prepare final documents and has issued
12,500 shares in consideration of said legal expenses This financing arrangement
is expected to result in substantial dilution. In the event that alternative
funding sources are not available as and when needed by the Company, and this
current equity financing is not fully realized, it could have a severe adverse
impact on the combined business and results of operations of the Company and
could result in the Company being unable to continue as a going concern.
Management is continually monitoring and evaluating the financing sources
available to achieve the Company's goals.
Due to the losses sustained by the Company and its lack of working capital,
the Company's ability to remain a going concern depends upon its ability to
generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations and to obtain additional
financing as may be required.
- 10 -
As of December 31, 2003, management estimated that the Company's cash
resources were not enough to meet the Company's estimated funding requirements
for the remainder of the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2004.

Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation
was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the
Company's management, including the Company's President, who serves as the
principal operating officer, and its Chief Financial Officer, who has served as
the principal financial and accounting officer. Based upon that evaluation, the
Company's President and CFO have concluded that the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures are effective in alerting them to material information
regarding the Company's financial statement and disclosure obligation in order
to allow the Company to meet its reporting requirements under the Exchange Act
in a timely manner.
(b) Changes in internal control.
There have been no changes in internal controls or in other factors that
could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their
evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
As previously reported in the Company's quarterly report for the period
ending September 30, 2003, the Company received notice of a lawsuit commenced
against its predecessor company, FoneFriend, Inc., a Nevada corporation, seeking
past due legal fees of approximately $21,000. The assets of this predecessor
company were acquired by the Company in a stock for assets purchase transaction
and FoneFriend of Nevada was dissolved. Should the Company become a party to
this litigation, it believes it has affirmative defenses to the amount of such
charges and intends to defend against any such action should it be commenced.
Also previously reported, the Company has received a threat of litigation
from the bankrupt estate of Allegiance Telecom, seeking approximately $5,000.
Should the Company become a party to this litigation, it believes it has
affirmative defenses to such charges and intends to defend against any such
action should it be commenced.
In January, 2003, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a
former officer and director of FoneFriend, Inc., a Nevada corporation. As
partial consideration under the settlement agreement, the Company was required
to pay plaintiff the sum of $20,000 on December 1, 2003. The plaintiff accepted
a payment of $10,000 from the Company in December of 2003 and agreed to accept a
final payment of $12,500 on January 4, 2004. The Company has not yet made the
final payment to plaintiff. In accordance with the terms of the settlement, the
plaintiff may, upon the Court's order, file with the Court a "Stipulation for
Entry of Judgment." The plaintiff has not yet moved to file or enforce the
judgment.
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES
During the three months ended December 31, 2003, the Company issued a total
of 170,000 shares of common stock to consultants for services provided to the
Company. Additionally, the Company issued 200,000 warrants to purchase the
Company's common stock at $0.20 per share in connection with a $100,000 loan
from an unaffiliated third party. The loan is evidenced by a promissory note
which is convertible into the Company's stock at a discount to the market price
at the time of conversion.
Subsequent to December 31, 2003, in accordance with resolutions adopted by
the Board of Directors during the current reporting period, the Company
instructed its transfer agent to: (i) cancel 76,500 shares of common stock and
6,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock ("Preferred Stock") that
were issued either in error or without proper consideration; (ii) issue
4,015,000 shares of common stock to officers and a consultant in order to retain
their continued services and to cure any default under their agreements; (iii)
issue 2,443,083 shares of common stock as a special, one-time dividend on the
Preferred Stock; (iv) issue 814,361 shares of common stock in exchange for a
like amount of Preferred Stock.
Also, subsequent to December 31, 2003, the Company signed a terms sheet for
a financing with an unaffiliated third party entity, which is subject to the
execution of definitive agreements, pursuant to which it will receive up to $3
million in an equity line of credit to be made available over a period that
could extend for the next thirty-six months. In connection with the signing of
the terms sheet, the Company issued 12,500 shares for legal fees relating to the
preparation of the definitive agreements. Further, in anticipation of this
financing, the Company entered into several consulting agreements whereby it
issued an additional 2,250,000 shares of common stock in exchange for financial,
legal, marketing, technical support and other services in furtherance of its
intended plan of operation.
