Overview

The Company is a Nevada corporation formed in 1993. HSNI's principal executive office is located at 7920 Beltline Rd, Suite 770, Dallas, TX 75254. HSNI's telephone number is (972) 386-6667. HSNI's website is www.hsni.us.

From 1998 until the third quarter of 2004, the Company provided financial products and related services to the new and pre-owned automotive finance industry. The Company primarily purchased and subsequently sold automobile finance receivables collateralized by new and pre-owned automobiles. The receivables were predominately purchased from automobile retailers nationwide and sold to banks and credit unions.

The Company changed its name to Homeland Security Network, Inc. (OTC: HSYN) on March 1, 2005 to reflect the direction of a new course of business. The Company intends `Homeland Security Network, Inc.' to be recognized as a provider of technology products and services for tracking and recovering valuable mobile assets. The Company anticipates its new course of business will capitalize on rapidly emerging, largely under-served, GPS tracking markets. HSNI plans to serve the concerns and requirements of the individual consumer and corporations. HSNI predominantly targets markets such as commercial trucking and cargo management, commercial fleet management, equipment rental and personal vehicle tracking. These markets could have a potential demand in excess of 100 million units in the United States, Canada and Mexico over the next decade. The Company expects to impact the GPS tracking industry with state-of-

the-art software, as well as with its ability to provide low cost tracking hardware, and its ability to offer a cost-effective data transmission fee. The Company's GPS products incorporate map tracking and trailing, geo-fencing alerts for designated parameter infringements, and the ability to control vehicle functions with voice commands from its customers' web-enabled mobile phones or personal computers, via the company's internet website system software. The Company plans to continually enhance features.

In the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company began a second business segment. HSNI has secured distribution rights to a patented water restoration technology, which represents a substantial opportunity in the multi-billon dollar global water purification market. The Company has proposed the use of its services in the United States and several foreign counties. The Company is in the process of changing its name to Global Ecology Corporation. Management has decided that this new name will better reflect the new direction of the Company into various forms of environmental restoration. A substantial part of the Company's business will be conducted internationally and the new name will help establish this presence.

The Company has supported two events at the United Nations and has sponsored a third on May 2, 2008. This dinner reception is part of the Company's association with International Renewable Energy Organization ("IREO"), a Brazilian private partner of the United Nations. In attendance were Ambassadors, Government Officials and entertainment celebrities. Peter Ubaldi, President & CEO of the Company has been appointed as Chairman of IREO's Water Restoration Committee. The Company has proposed its remediation technology for Lake Rodrigo in Brazil as part of its expanding marketing efforts in Central and South America.

HSNI has entered into a joint venture with HumaClean, a Texas based soil remediation and re-seller of processed soil for consumer and commercial users.
The first project is underway in Juarez, Mexico and the next site has been designated as Monterey, Mexico. The Company believes that revenue from these activities will begin to be recorded in the fourth quarter of 2008 and the first order of its processed soil has been received for in excess of $2,000,000. The Company has agreed to advance $800,000 to the venture and this will be paid back before the year end. As of September 30, 2008 the Company had advanced $750,000 to the venture. The terms of the pay-back call for the initial revenue to be used to repay the advance, however the Company at its discretion can allow a portion of the repayment to be left in the Venture for working capital.

Plan of Operation

In August 2004, the Company ceased its activities in the automobile finance business and has completed the orderly liquidation of the auto receivable portfolio. Its focus is in several new markets with new products for the GPS industry and the water purification industry. The Company anticipates this business will capitalize on rapidly emerging, largely under-served, GPS tracking markets and the worldwide need for water purification.

The Company completed the purchase of the software which supports its GPS tracking technology from Rodwell Software Systems, Inc. ("RSSI"). From the 1st quarter of 2005 until December of 2007, the Company had operated this system under a licensing agreement from RSSI; however, RSSI was issued a total of 8,855,760 shares of the Company's common stock for this purchase. The total purchase price of the software was $116,682.

The purchase from RSSI provided the Company with technology products and support services for tracking and recovering valuable mobile assets. HSNI's plan further incorporates engaging and developing strategic alliances with third party sale and installation entities and distributors that have a distinct sales and marketing presence in the automobile retail industry, and the commercial and government sectors. The Company expects these types of engagements to be particularly beneficial and anticipates the results of such alliances to create name recognition for the Company.

Ultimately, the Company expects to generate sustaining revenues derived primarily from the sale and installation of its GPS products and components to domestic end users and third party users generated from non-prime finance companies and "buy here, pay here companies. Additionally, the Company expects to generate revenues relating to the sale of service contracts, for which terms of service are anticipated to

range from 12 to 36 months and are payable in full upon activation of the related tracking unit, as well as subsequent renewals of previous service contracts.

Costs for product development are expensed as incurred and include salaries, fees to consultants, and other related costs associated with the development of products. The Company's product development effort has thus far been outsourced to third parties. Because the rate of achievement is unpredictable, product development expenses may vary significantly from period to period. Such variability can have a significant impact on the Company's income from operations and cash flows.

In the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company began a second business segment. HSNI has secured distribution rights to a patented water restoration technology, which represents a substantial opportunity in the multi-billon dollar global water purification market. The Company has proposed the use of its services in the United States and several foreign counties.

In July 2008, the Company announced that it has filed an application to patent its Mobile PureWater System. This transportable system filters and purifies up to 90,000 liters of water per day by pumping it from a contaminated water source and treating it within the system itself. The unit is powered by solar, wind, diesel generator or vehicle alternator dispatch and requires no external power source. In August of 2008, the Company announced that it sold 10 Mobile Water Treatment System units subject to final testing and delivery of the working prototype to a private charitable organization that funds humanitarian projects worldwide. These units will be tested in the U.S. for use as part of a response system to environmental catastrophes.

The Company has supported two events at the United Nations and has sponsored a third on May 2, 2008. This dinner reception is part of the Company's association with International Renewable Energy Organization ("IREO"), a Brazilian private partner of the United Nations. In attendance were Ambassadors, Government Officials and entertainment celebrities. Peter Ubaldi, President & CEO of The Company has been appointed as Chairman of IREO's Water Restoration Committee. The Company has proposed its remediation technology for Lake Rodrigo in Brazil as part of its expanding marketing efforts in Central and South America.

HSNI has also entered into a joint venture with HumaClean, a Texas based soil remediation and re-seller of processed soil for consumer and commercial users.
The first project is underway in Juarez, Mexico and the next site has been designated as Monterey, Mexico. The Company believes that revenue from these activities will begin to be recorded in the third quarter of 2008 and the first order of its processed soil has been received for in excess of $2,000,000.

Ultimately, the Company expects this activity to become a major business segment contributing sustaining revenues.

Going Concern

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. Management is seeking various types of additional funding such as issuance of additional common or preferred stock, additional lines of credit, or issuance of subordinated debentures or other forms of debt. The funding would alleviate the Company's working capital deficiency and increase profitability. The Company has secured a line of credit for the purchase of inventory. This will reduce the need for the Company to use its working capital to acquire inventory for re-sale. However, it is not possible to predict the success of management's efforts to achieve profitability or to secure additional funding. Also, there can be no assurance that additional funding will be available when needed or, if available, that its terms will be favorable or acceptable. Management has also renegotiated certain present liabilities in order to alleviate the working capital deficiency.

If the additional financing or arrangements cannot be obtained, the Company would be materially and adversely affected and there would be substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classifications of liabilities necessary if the Company becomes unable to continue as a going concern.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, cost of product sales decreased by 46%, or $21,006 as compared to September 30, 2007 due to the decreased sales of tracking devices as compared to the same period a year ago.

Professional fees decreased by $6,778 and increased by $76,880, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the same periods a year earlier primarily due to varying needs related to legal counsel and accounting services.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $13,231 and $27,894, respectively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the same periods a year earlier due to the depreciation of leasehold improvements made to the Keasbey, NJ office in 2008 and amortization of capitalized software acquired in September 2007.

The Sales development and marketing expenses increased $17,401 and $505,547, respectively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the same periods a year earlier due to the Company entering the water purification industry and aggressively pursuing this business during 2008. The Company utilizes the services of several consultants to establish business relationships which include foreign governments, domestic government agencies, partnerships with United Nations groups and humanitarian organizations.

Other debt settlement fees increased $1,750 and $171,632 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the same periods a year earlier due to the Company incurring additional fees related to the settlement of notes by common stock.

Interest Expenses

Interest expense as an other expense decreased by $2,289 and $62,981, respectively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 as compared to the same periods a year earlier, primarily due to the settlement of certain outstanding debt from issuances of common stock.

Liquidity

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. Management is seeking various types of additional funding such as the issuance of additional common or preferred stock, additional lines of credit, or the issuance of subordinated debentures or other forms of debt will be pursued. The funding should alleviate the Company's working capital deficiency and increase profitability. However, it is not possible to predict the success of management's efforts to achieve profitability. Also, there can be no assurance that additional funding will be available when needed or, if available, that its terms will be favorable or acceptable.

These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in operation. Management is seeking to raise additional capital and to renegotiate certain liabilities in order to alleviate the working capital deficiency.

Due to recurring operating losses and the Company's current working capital deficit, there is a need to obtain additional funding of working capital for the Company to operate as a going concern. The Company incurred operating losses of $1,359,846 and $710,250 for the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. In 2008, the Company has been able to minimally sustain its working capital needs based on capital derived primarily from: issuances of additional common stock; notes payable and advances from related parties; and from the sale of tracking devices along with the associated airtime charges of these devices.

The Company's cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows, are summarized in the following table:

                                     For the Nine Months Ended
                                           September 30,
                                     2008                   2007
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities          $       (1,247,941 )      $    (221,850 )
Investing activities                    (109,676 )             (4,800 )
Financing activities                   1,357,850              226,479
Increase/(decrease in cash)   $              233        $        (171 )

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 increased to $1,247,941 from net cash provided by operations of $221,850 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 primarily due to increased spending related to the Company entering the water purification industry. The Company increased spending for sales development and advanced $750,000 under its joint venture agreement with Huma Clean of Palestine, Texas.

Net cash used by investing activities was $109,676 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to net cash used by investing activities of $4,800 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as a result of disbursements for leasehold improvements and office furniture for the subleased space located at 140 Smith Street, Suite 200, Keasbey, New Jersey.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,357,850 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $226,479 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as a result of financing the purchase of the other intangible assets and the advances and notes payable obtained from related parties.

Market for Common Stock; Volatility of Prices

There has been a limited public trading market for Common Shares of the Company. There can be no assurance that a regular trading market for the Common Shares will ever develop or, if developed, that it will be sustained. The market price of the Common Shares could also be subject to significant fluctuations in response to such factors as variations in the anticipated or actual results of operations of the Company or other companies in the automotive finance and GPS tracking industries, changes in conditions affecting the economy generally, analyst reports, general trends in industry, and other political or socioeconomic events or factors.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements that constitute off-balance sheet arrangements.

Deferred Tax Valuation

The Company continues to incur tax net operating losses, which are available to carry forward and offset future taxable income. These net operating losses were generated, principally as a result of losses resulting from the operations of the Company. A deferred tax asset results from the benefit of utilizing these net operating loss carry-forwards in future years.

Due to the current uncertainty of realizing the benefits of the tax NOL carry-forward, a valuation allowance equal to the tax benefits for the deferred taxes has been established. The full realization of the tax benefit associated with the carry-forward depends predominately upon the Company's ability to generate taxable income during future periods, which is not assured.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Subject to and subsequent to an appointment or election as an officer or director, the Company provides contractually indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify the positions of directors and officers as follows: A director or officer shall not be liable for any claim or demand on account of damages in any manner. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold directors or officers, without limitation, harmless from any and all damages, losses (which shall include any diminution in value), shortages, liabilities (joint or several), payments, obligations, penalties, claims, litigation, demands, defenses, judgments, suits, proceedings, costs, disbursements or expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever, specifically including without limitation, fees, disbursements and expenses of attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors and of expert witnesses and cost of investigation and preparation. A director or officer will be indemnified from any decision or action taken prior to his or her hire date as a director or officer.
