Re: The Widecom Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "Widecom")

Dear Mr. Murray:

On July 27, 2000, Staff notified the Company that it was no longer in compliance
with the minimum $2,000,000 net tangible assets requirement as set forth in
Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2)(B)(1) and that it had failed to file a proxy
statement or hold an annual meeting of shareholders for its fiscal year ended
March 31, 1999, as required by Marketplace Rules 4350(e)(2) and 4350(g)(3).

According to the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000, Staff
determined that the Company's net tangible assets(4) were $1,866,751.(5) The
Company reported net losses of ($1,500,840), ($2,244,351), and ($3,335,865), in
its annum filings for the years ended March 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998,
respectively. The Company's market capitalization was $5,165,970(6) on

----------
(1) Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2)(B) states: "For continued inclusion, the issuer
shall maintain: (i) net tangible assets of $2 million; (ii) market
capitalization of $35 million; or (iii) net income of $500,000 in the most
recently completed fiscal year or in two of the last three most recently
completed fiscal years".
(2) Marketplace Rule 4350(e) states that "each issuer shall hold an anneal
meeting of shareholders and shall provide notice of such meeting to Nasdaq."
(3) Marketplace Rule 4350(g) states that "each issuer shall solicit proxies, and
provide proxy statements for all meetings of shareholders and shall provide
copies of such proxy solicitation to Nasdaq."
(4) Marketplace Rule 4200(a)(28) states that net tangible assets "shall mean
total assets (including the value of patents, copyrights and trademarks but
excluding the value of goodwill) less than total liabilities." Please note that
Staff, as a matter of policy, excludes redeemable securities from its
calculation of net tangible assets.
(5) The Company's net tangible assets were calculated as follows: $3,435,361
total assets, less $1,568,610 total liabilities, equals $1,866,751 net tangible
assets.
(6) The calculation is based on 2,582,985 total shares outstanding as of June
29, 2000 multiplied by the closing inside bid price of $2.00.

July 26, 2000, and $1,695,100(7) on January 29, 2000. - According to the Form
10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2000, the Company reported net
tangible assets of $1,680,950(8) and a six month net loss of ($280,250).

Based on our review of the Company and the materials submitted to Staff on
August 10 and November 30, 2000, we have determined to deny the Company's
request for continued listing on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market.

Over a year ago on October 15, 1999, Widecom filed a Form SB-2 with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") registering over 1,000,000 shares of
common stock to be issued pursuant to the exercise of warrants issued in
connection with its initial public offering completed during December 1995. The
registration statement was filed subsequent to the re-pricing of such warrants
to reflect the one for four reverse stock split completed during January 1999.
The Company believes, that upon effectiveness of the Form SB-2, a significant
number of warrant holders will exercise their warrants resulting in the Company
receiving a substantial amount of capital. However, the Company did not provide;
the registration statement's estimated date of effectiveness. Furthermore,
according to the Form SB-2/A dated February 4, 2000, the Company had outstanding
warrants to purchase 1,620,764 shares of its common stock. Of these warrants,
only 247,250 have exercise price ranges between $.66 per share and $3.00 per
share. The remaining 1,373,514 warrants have exercise prices ragging from $3.00
to $16.00 per share. On January 29, 2001, the Company's common stock had a
closing bid price of $0.65625 per share. Staff notes that these warrants are
"out of the money" and would unlikely be exercised at current market prices.

The Company also plans to convert approximately $382,700 in unpaid consulting
fees and salaries accrued during fiscal 2000 into shares of its common stock.
Staff notes that although the pending conversion of such related party debt may
enable Widecom to achieve compliance with the minimum net tangible asset
requirement(9), Staff is concerned that any benefits from such conversion may be
offset by the Company's current level of operating losses. Over the most
recently completed eighteen months, the Company has as experienced an average
monthly loss of approximately $100,000.

In addition to the above, during March 2000, Widecom established
PosterNetwork.com, Inc., ("Posternetwork") a wholly owned subsidiary. In that re
Bard, the Company intends to spin-off Posternetwork to its shareholders and, as
a result, believes that its financial position will

----------
(7) The calculation is based on 2,582,985 total shares outstanding as of
November 16, 2000 multiplied by the closing inside bid price of $0.65625.
(8) The Company's net tangible assets were calculated as follows: $3,231,828
total assets, less $1,550,878 total liabilities, equals $1,680,960 net tangible
assets.
(9) As previously noted, Staff calculated the Company's net tangible ass us at
September 30, 2000 to be $1,680,960. If converted into equity, the $382,700 in
related party debt would result in net tangible assets of $2,063,660.

significantly improve because it will no longer be required to fund
PosterNetwork's day-to-day research and development activities. Posteretwork is
currently in the process of privately raising an anticipated $3,000,000 to be
used to commence business operations. However, Widecom did not provide any
detailed financial information pertaining to the spin-off's impact on its
financial position. In the absence of any binding agreements relating to the
proposed spin-off or to the pending private placement, Staff is concerned that
Widecom may be unable to complete the above in the near term or that such
actions will enable it to regain compliance.

The Company's original submission dated August 10, 2000, also indicated that
the annual meeting was scheduled to held on or about October 18, 2000. However,
on November 30, 2000, the Company indicated that the annual meeting is now
expected to be held during February 2001. However, Staff notes that as of the
date of this letter the Company does not have a current proxy statement on file
with the SEC.

Furthermore, Staff also notified the Company today that its Common Stock has
failed to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 over the last 30 consecutive
trading days as required by The Nasdaq SmallCap Market under Marketplace Rule
43100)(4). Therefore, in accordance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(8)(B), the
Company will be provided 90 calendar days, or until April 30, 2001 to regain
compliance with this Rule.(l0)

In view of the foregoing, Staff has determined that the Company has not provided
a definitive plan evidencing its ability to achieve near term compliance with
the continued listing requirements or to sustain compliance over an extended
period of time. Accordingly, the Company's securities will be delisted from the
Nasdaq SmallCap Market at the opening of business on February 7, 2001.

Marketplace Rule 4815(b) requires that the Company, as promptly as possible but
no later than seven calendar days from the receipt of Staff's determination,
make a public announcement through the news media which discloses receipt of
this letter and the Nasdaq rules upon which it is based. The Company must
provide a copy of this announcement to Nasdaq's StockWatch Department and
Listing Qualifications Hearings Department (the "Hearings Department") at least
10 minutes prior to its public dissemination.(11) For your convenience, we have
enclosed a list of news services that the Company may use in connection with
this announcement. In the event the Company does not make the required public
announcement, Nasdaq will halt trading in

Re: The Widecom Group, Inc. (the "Company")

Dear Mr. Murray:

The Company's Common Stock has failed to maintain a minimum bid price of $1:00
over the last 30 consecutive trading days as required by The Nasdaq SmallCap
Market under Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4) (the "Rule"). Therefore, in accordance
with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(8)(B), the Company will be provided 90 calendar
days, or until April 30, 2001 to regain compliance with this Rule.(l) If at
anytime before April 30, 2001, the bid price of the Company's Common Stock is at
least $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days, Staff will determine
if the Company complies with the Rule. However, if the Company is unable to
demonstrate compliance with the Rule on or before April 30, 2001, Staff will
provide the Company with written notification that its securities will be
delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal Staffs decision to a Nasdaq
Listing Qualifications Panel.

If you have any questions concerning the compliance issues discussed above,
please contact Eric C. Wasiuta, Lead Analyst at (301) 978-8066.
