The purpose of this Information Statement is to inform the Company's shareholders of a pending change in control pursuant to a certain merger agreement (the "Merger Agreement"), effective as of August 31, 2005, by and among the Company, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Strategies Acquisition Corp. ("SPV"), Corporate Strategies, Inc. ("Strategies") and each shareholder of Strategies (collectively, the "Shareholders"). You are receiving this Information Statement in connection with the nomination of persons to be appointed to the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The resignation of the existing Directors and appointment of the new Directors will become effective ten (10) days following the Notice Date. CHANGE IN CONTROL As described above, on August 31, 2005 the Company entered into a Merger Agreement whereby SPV, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, merged with and into Strategies, with Strategies remaining as the surviving corporation and continuing its corporate existence under the laws of the State of Delaware and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Merger"). The separate existence of SPV has ceased. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued one (1) share of its Common Stock to each Strategies Class A common stock holder in exchange for two (2) shares of Strategies Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Second, the Company issued one (1) share of the Company's Series C preferred stock ("Series C Preferred"), par value $0.01 per share, to each Strategies Series A preferred stock holder for one (1) share of Strategies Series A preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. Third, the Company issued and delivered shares of its Series B convertible preferred stock ("Series B Preferred"), par value $0.01 per share, to each Strategies Class B common stock holder so that effectively upon conversion of the Series B convertible preferred stock into common shares, the common shares issued upon conversion shall be equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the issued and outstanding stock of the Company (calculated on a fully diluted basis as of the date of the Merger, following the issuance of all the Merger Consideration (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) and after giving effect to such conversion, but not including any shares of NuWave common stock issuable upon conversion of any then outstanding NuWave convertible debentures). Therefore, the Merger Consideration for the Company's Common Stock, Series C Preferred and Series B Preferred was the Strategies Class A common, Series A preferred and Class B common, respectively. The number of shares issued to the Shareholders in connection with the Merger was based upon a determination by the Board that the transaction was in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. Furthermore, Mr. George D. Kanakis has resigned as the sole officer of the Company, effective August 31, 2005. Mr. Timothy J. Connolly and Mr. A.P. Shukis have replaced him as Chief Executive Officer and as Chief Financial Officer, respectively. Messrs. Kanakis and Gary H. Giannantonio have resigned as the Company's directors pending effectiveness of this Information Statement. Mr. Fred S. Zeidman has been nominated to be the Company's new Chairman and Mr. Connolly has been nominated to be the new Vice Chairman of the Board. The changes to the Board are to be effective ten (10) days following the Notice Date, estimated to be on or about September 23, 2005. The exchange for the shares was consummated on August 31, 2005 and therefore Messrs. Zeidman and Connolly may be considered to "control" the Company as of that date. YOU ARE URGED TO READ THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT CAREFULLY. YOU ARE NOT, HOWEVER, REQUIRED TO TAKE ANY ACTION. 2 VOTING SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY On September 1, 2005 there were 22,710,816 shares of Common Stock, 100,000 shares of Series B Preferred and 570.199 shares of Series C preferred stock issued and outstanding. There were no shares of Series A preferred stock outstanding. Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder thereof to one (1) vote on each matter which may come before a meeting of the Company's shareholders. As a class, the holders of the Company's Series B Preferred shall, collectively, be entitled to cast a number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon conversion pursuant to the Merger Agreement multiplied by ten (10) on all matters submitted to the shareholders of the Company for approval, which votes shall be distributed among the holders of Series B Preferred on a pro rata basis based upon the number of shares of Series B Preferred held by such respective holders. The holders of shares of the Series B Preferred shall be entitled to vote on all matters on which the Common Stock shall be entitled to vote. Holders of Series B Preferred shall be entitled to notice of any shareholders meeting in accordance with the Bylaws of the Company. Fractional votes shall not, however, be permitted and any fractional voting rights resulting from the above formula (after aggregating all shares into which shares of Series B Preferred held by each holder could be converted), shall be disregarded. The Series C Preferred shares have no voting rights, except as required under Delaware General Corporation Law. 3 SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of each class of the Company's voting securities on August 30, 2005, immediately prior to the Merger, by (a) each person known by the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of the Company's outstanding voting securities, (b) each of the Company's Directors, (c) each of the Company's executive officers and (d) all Directors and executive officers as a group.

On December 22, 2003, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Lehigh Acquisition Corp. ("Lehigh") acquired a parcel of land in New Jersey for a purchase price of $4,950,000, basing the purchase price on an independent commercial appraisal. Lehigh intends to develop and then sell the parcel. Lehigh acquired the parcel from Stone Street Asset Management LLC ("Stone Street"), a Company under common ownership and control with Cornell Capital Partners, LP. ("Cornell"). In connection with the purchase of the parcel, the Company incurred debt obligations consisting of a $3,300,000 convertible debenture to Cornell, which was subsequently terminated and replaced on January 26, 2005 with a $3,481,273 non-convertible promissory note, which includes (a) accrued interest of $181,273, (b) $250,000 of convertible debentures to unrelated parties and (c) a $1,400,000 note payable, as amended, to Stone Street, which was subsequently assigned to Cornell on January 26, 2005. As a result of Stone Street's relationship with Cornell, the Company has recorded land at the cost basis recorded by Stone Street of approximately $2,915,000. In November 2004, Lehigh sold a twenty percent (20%) fee simple interest in its land held for development and sale as a tenant in common to an entity which is a related party to Michael Kesselbrenner, a current holder of the Company's convertible debentures. Effective July, 2004, the Company entered into a lease agreement for 3,580 square feet of corporate office tower space in Jersey City, New Jersey for a term of five (5) years. The Company incurs a net cost of approximately $10,000 per month for this space, when combining the rent and other costs such as utilities, taxes and maintenance. The Company's obligations under this lease are guaranteed by Yorkville Advisors Management, LLC ("Yorkville"). Yorkville is related to Cornell, a related party to the Company. At December 31, 2004, the Company's investment in marketable securities-available-for-sale represents an investment in the common stock of an affiliate of Cornell. 10 COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's directors, executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent (10%) of a registered class of equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities and are required by SEC regulations to also furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. To the Company's knowledge, as of the date of this Information Statement, all applicable 16(a) filing requirements have been complied with and filed timely.
