Emergisoft in exchange for 100% of the equity interests of Emergisoft.
Pierce will then change its name to Emergisoft Holding, Inc. after

a majority of the shares of stock of Emergisoft have approved the merger.
Closing of the merger is subject to customary conditions, including various

Executive Officer of Emergisoft will be appointed President, CEO and a
director of Pierce. The current sole officer and director will resign from
these positions with the parent company upon Mr. Manley's appointment. Mr.
Manley intends to appoint Dan Witte, James L. Williams, Ron Hellstern, Kenna
