The information contained herein is not intended to directly or indirectly provide advice as to the value of the company's securities, or as to the advisability of investing in, holding, or selling such securities. This material is furnished solely for informational purposes and should not be construed as an offer to sell, nor the solicitation of an offer to buy, any security

SeaView Video Technology, Inc.was originally formed as SeaView Underwater Research, Inc., a Florida Corporation, on April 2, 1998. The Company had no operations prior to incorporation. The Company was acquired by Gopher, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, on March 22, 1999. The combined entity was subsequently renamed SeaView Underwater Research, Inc. The Company then modified its corporate name to SeaView Video Technology, Inc.

SeaView manufactures underwater video cameras, lights, and accessories for the marine, commercial, and consumer retail markets. The Company has also developed and manufactures a video security system utilizing exclusive patented technology, which enables video transmission through existing electrical wiring. The key product, SecureView, is a light bulb camera and decoder system. The Company sells and distributes its product lines through the following channels: (1) direct to the public and government (2)through a network of approximately 700 independent dealers and (3) through an expanding retailers network. Production is contracted through several outside assembly companies. The Company has registered trademarks for many of its products.

MARINE PRODUCTS

SeaView manufactures and produces a distinct line of underwater video cameras, utilizing specially-modified CCD miniature video boards with infra-red emitters. The video boards are produced specifically for the Company, with proprietary modifications for the unique requirements of underwater applications. These modules are then placed within patented-design housings, which allow for various consumer and commercial configurations. Complete ready-to-go systems also include a proprietary viewing hood, a TV monitor, proprietary brackets, a kit of connectors, adapters, and power supply components, and a carrying case.

The Company also manufactures an underwater lighting product, trademarked SeaLite. The SeaLite uses a powerful halogen lamp to attract baitfish, which attract predator fish. The SeaLite is also offered as a lighting accessory for the Company's camera packages. A proprietary cable clamp is available as an option for this application.

Underwater camera systems are offered in three series: Super-Mini, Mini, and full size ("Offshore Series"). Infrared-enhanced black and white is standard; color is optional. Each respective series has a "TwinCam" package with both an IR/BW and a color camera probe.

TrakView is an electronic device which overlays data from an external GPS receiver onto any video signal, allowing a camera user to see and record the exact position directly on the video picture.

SECURITY PRODUCTS

The trademarked name, SecureView, is the key brand identifier for a range of security products incorporating IRFS (Induction Radio-Frequency System), a technology which enables video transmission over electrical conductors, both AC and DC.

SECURITY PRODUCTS---Retail

The core SecureView product is the "camera in a light bulb" design. The Company produces two types: outdoor (based on the style of a PAR-38 floodlamp) and indoor (based on the style of an R-30 lamp). Modified miniature CCD video camera boards with infrared emitters supply composite video to the IRFS circuitry within the proprietary lamp housing. A receiver component "decodes" the IRFS signal sent over the power line, and provides a composite-video feed to any standard television or recorder. The system comprises several individually-patented components. The retail system consists of a camera light bulb, decoder box and RCA connecting cable.

In addition, an IR Floodlight has been developed to enhance the performance of the camera in total darkness.

The IRFS circuitry is available in a DC variant, labeled "SecureView DC." Current board sets operate at voltage ranges from 12 volts to 28 volts and are suitable for a variety of OEM applications in cars, trucks, boats, and RVs.

SECURITY PRODUCTS---Commercial

The company manufactures and produces a commercial version of the SecureView system for schools, nursing homes, warehouses, banks, hotels, storage units, etc. An enhanced multi-camera system utilizes custom software and hardware in conjunction with a personal computer.

PowerCam utilizes a CCD miniature video camera, IR Floodlights, and IRFS technology within an emergency-lighting housing.

SECURITY PRODUCTS---Government

Enhanced SecureView systems for applications within government agencies, the military, and law enforcement are designed to the specifications designated by the purchasing agency. These systems may also be monitored worldwide with custom designed software.

The company manufactures a Vehicle Inspection Camera (VIC) utilizing modified CCD video boards with infra-red emitters produced specifically for the requirements of government applications. The camera is mounted on a lightweight alloy deployment system (patent pending) with a viewing monitor mounted on a specially designed easy-clip bracket (patent pending).

A complete range of all SeaView products and system configurations, including underwater cameras, have been developed for this category and listed for purchase via GSA order codes.

DENTAL PRODUCTS

During 2000, the company began development of dental applications for the SeaView/SecureView cameras. The DentaView is currently being presented to dentists for review and evaluation. It is an extra-oral camera that provides significant improvements over intra-oral extra-oral systems currently being sold in the marketplace.

INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS

SecureView DC board sets are appropriate for OEM inclusion in trucks, tractor-trailers, containerized freight, rail, ship, and aviation applications. Aftermarket packages for fleet retrofit are being developed to maximize the key SecureView advantage: no additional wiring is required.

Lift-Cam allows forklift operators to see the exact placement of pallets or other cargo, even in low light. Misplacement of pallets is a major safety concern and creates high-cost damage.

Well Cam is currently undergoing tests and meeting code requirements for oil and gas well applications. This concept allows this industry to have an economical method of viewing oil and gas pipelines and drill casings. The unique properties of the camera make it well suitable to no light environments.
