The enactment of this agreement clears the way for Bulldog to launch commercial service in the US with their covert asset tracking device, the MiniBOSS(TM). Bulldog is the first company to deliver a covert tracking, monitoring and security service with commercial GPSOne capabilities.

During the past six months Bulldog has established pilot programs with the MiniBOSS(TM) product. This Service Agreement will clear the way for Bulldog to fulfill those orders. As a result, Bulldog is expecting to initiate several more pilots over the coming weeks, of which a significant number are with Fortune 500 companies.

In addition to hardware revenue, Bulldog will also generate reoccurring revenues as a result of the airtime used with each unit sold. This airtime will attribute to additional guaranteed revenue recognized by Bulldog and will continue to grow as additional customers and units are added to the service. This additional guaranteed revenue will vary by customer depending on application and need.

Other large markets Bulldog looks to enter with the MiniBOSS(TM) product are direct customer bases, such as domestic car and truck security, as well as tracking of personal belongings.

Because the MiniBOSS(TM) operates on an AGPS platform, its signal receive sensitivity is greatly increased over traditional GPS platforms. Assisted GPS uses cellular tower triangulation in conjunction with GPS satellite location to provide position location capabilities in impaired RF environments. This increased functionality allows the MiniBOSS(TM) to work in environments that traditional GPS cannot. The MiniBOSS(TM) does not need to "see the sky" to determine location like traditional GPS systems and no external antennae is necessary. Thus the MiniBOSS(TM) can transmit and determine accurate positions inside steel containers, trailers, warehouses, parking garages, and buildings.

In the Company's February 11, 2005 news release, Bulldog Technologies Inc. announced the apprehension of a cargo theft ring by the Connecticut and New Jersey State Police joint operation using the MiniBOSS(TM) product, which resulted in preventing millions of dollars of theft. http://www.bulldog-tech.com/Archives_11Feb05.asp
