Dear Shareholder:
This Information Statement is furnished to holders of shares of common stock,
par value $.0000001 per share (the "Common Stock"), of ENTRUST FINANCIAL
SERVICES, INC. (the "Company"). We are sending you this Information Statement to
inform you that on September 19, 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company
unanimously adopted a resolution seeking shareholder approval to amend the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the
Company's common stock. Thereafter, on September 20, 2005, pursuant to the
By-Laws of the Company and Colorado Business Corporation Act ss.7-107-104,
certain principal shareholders of the Company (identified in the section
entitled "Voting Securities and Principal Holders Thereof") holding 49,500,000
shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 95% of the total issued and
outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock, adopted a resolution to
authorize the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, to effect a reverse
split of the Company's Common Stock based upon a ratio of not less than
one-for-five nor more than one-for-sixty shares at any time prior to September
20, 2006. In addition, notwithstanding approval of this proposal by the
shareholders, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine not
to effect, and abandon, the reverse stock split without further action by our
shareholders.
The Board of Directors believes that the proposed reverse stock split is
beneficial to the Company because it provides the Company with the flexibility
it needs to attract a transaction consistent with its business plan.
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE NOT REQUESTED TO
SEND US A PROXY.
The enclosed Information Statement is being furnished to you to inform you that
the foregoing action has been approved by the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of our Common Stock. The resolutions will not become
effective before the date which is 20 days after this Information Statement was
first mailed to shareholders. You are urged to read the Information Statement in
its entirety for a description of the action taken by the Board of Directors and
a majority of the shareholders of the Company.
This Information Statement is being mailed on or about October 26, 2005 to
shareholders of record on October 17, 2005 (the "Record Date").

INFORMATION STATEMENT
PURSUANT TO SECTION 14(C)
OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
AND RULE 14C-2 THEREUNDER
-----------------------------------
NO VOTE OR OTHER ACTION OF THE COMPANY'S SHAREHOLDERS IS REQUIRED
IN CONNECTION WITH THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT.
WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO
SEND US A PROXY.
The Company is distributing this Information Statement to its shareholders in
full satisfaction of any notice requirements it may have under Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Colorado Business Corporation Act. No
additional action will be undertaken by the Company with respect to the receipt
of written consents, and no dissenters' rights with respect to the receipt of
the written consents, and no dissenters' rights under the Colorado Business
Corporation Act are afforded to the Company's shareholders as a result of the
adoption of these resolutions.
Expenses in connection with the distribution of this Information Statement,
which are anticipated to be less than $2,000.00, will be paid by the Company.
BACKGROUND
Since the Company's disposition of its Entrust Mortgage, Inc. subsidiary in
August 2005, the Company's business plan has consisted of exploring potential
targets for a business combination with the Company through a purchase of
assets, share purchase or exchange, merger or similar type of transaction. In
order to facilitate such a transaction, the Company's Board of Directors
requires the flexibility to adjust the number of issued and outstanding shares
of the Company's common stock to meet the requirements of any such transaction.
The Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interest of the Company's
shareholders and the Company for the Board to have the authority to effect a
reverse stock split of the Company's common shares in order to make the Company
more attractive for a potential business combination. The Board of Directors
believes that shareholder approval of a range of potential exchange ratios
(rather than a single exchange ratio) provides the Board of Directors with the
flexibility to best achieve the desired results of the reverse stock split. The
Board of Directors would effect a reverse stock split only upon its
determination that a reverse stock split would be in the best interests of the
shareholders at that time. To effect a reverse stock split, the Board of
Directors would set the timing for such a split and select the specific ratio
within the range approved by the shareholders. No further action on the part of
shareholders will be required to either implement or abandon the reverse stock
split. The Board of Directors reserves its
right to elect not to proceed, and abandon, the reverse stock split if it
determines, in its sole discretion, that this proposal is no longer in the best
interests of the Company's shareholders.
CERTAIN RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE TOTAL MARKET CAPITALIZATION OF THE COMPANY'S
COMMON STOCK (THE AGGREGATE VALUE OF ALL COMPANY COMMON STOCK AT THE THEN MARKET
PRICE) AFTER THE PROPOSED REVERSE STOCK SPLIT WILL BE EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN
THE TOTAL MARKET CAPITALIZATION BEFORE THE PROPOSED REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OR THAT
THE PER SHARE MARKET PRICE OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK FOLLOWING THE REVERSE
STOCK SPLIT WILL INCREASE IN PROPORTION TO THE REDUCTION IN THE NUMBER OF SHARES
OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK OUTSTANDING BEFORE THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT.
IF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT IS EFFECTED, THE RESULTING PER-SHARE STOCK PRICE MAY
NOT ATTRACT OR SATISFY POTENTIAL ACQUISITION TARGETS AND THERE IS NO GUARANTEE
THAT ANY TRANSACTION WILL BE EFFECTED.
A DECLINE IN THE MARKET PRICE OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK AFTER THE REVERSE
STOCK SPLIT MAY RESULT IN A GREATER PERCENTAGE DECLINE THAN WOULD OCCUR IN THE
ABSENCE OF A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT, AND THE LIQUIDITY OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON
STOCK COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED FOLLOWING SUCH A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT.
IMPACT OF THE PROPOSED REVERSE STOCK SPLIT IF IMPLEMENTED
If approved and effected, the reverse stock split will be realized
simultaneously for all of the Company's common stock and the ratio will be the
same for all of the Company's common stock. The reverse stock split will affect
all of the Company's shareholders uniformly and will not affect any
shareholder's percentage ownership interests in the Company. In addition, the
reverse stock split will not affect any shareholder's percentage ownership or
proportionate voting power. However, because the number of authorized shares of
the Company's common stock will not be reduced, the reverse stock split will
increase the Board of Directors' ability to issue authorized and unissued shares
without further shareholder action.
The principal effect of the reverse stock split will be that:
o the number of shares of the Company's common stock issued and outstanding
will be reduced from 52,112,295 shares to a range of approximately
10,422,459 to 868,538 shares, depending on the reverse stock split ratio
determined by the Board of Directors;
o the number of shares that may be issued upon the exercise of conversion
rights by holders of securities convertible into the Company's common stock
will be reduced proportionately based upon the reverse stock split ratio
selected by the Board of Directors; and
o based on the reverse stock split ratio selected by the Board of Directors,
proportionate adjustments will be made to the per-share exercise price and
the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding options
entitling the holders to purchase shares of the Company's common stock,
which will result in approximately the same aggregate price being required
to be paid for such options upon exercise immediately preceding the reverse
stock split.
In addition, the reverse stock split may increase the number of shareholders who
own odd lots (less than 100 shares). Shareholders who hold odd lots typically
may experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares and may have
greater difficulty in effecting sales.
EFFECT ON FRACTIONAL SHAREHOLDERS
You will not receive fractional post-reverse stock split shares in connection
with the reverse stock split. All post-split shareholdings will be rounded to
the nearest full share.
EFFECT ON REGISTERED AND BENEFICIAL SHAREHOLDERS
Upon a reverse stock split, we intend to treat shareholders holding the
Company's common stock in "street name", through a bank, broker or other
nominee, in the same manner as registered shareholders whose shares are
registered in their names. Banks, brokers or other nominees will be instructed
to effect the reverse stock split for their beneficial holders holding the
Company's common stock in "street name." However, these banks, brokers or other
nominees may have different procedures than registered shareholders for
processing the reverse stock split. If you hold your shares with a bank, broker
or other nominee and if you have any questions in this regard, we encourage you
to contact your nominee.
EFFECT ON REGISTERED CERTIFICATED SHARES
Some of our registered shareholders hold all their shares in certificate form.
If any of your shares are held in certificate form, you will receive a
transmittal letter from our transfer agent, Corporate Stock Transfer, as soon as
practicable after the effective date of the reverse stock split. The letter of
transmittal will contain instructions on how to surrender your certificate(s)
representing your pre-reverse stock split shares to the transfer agent. Upon
receipt of your stock certificate, you will be issued the appropriate number of
shares electronically in book-entry form under the direct registration system.
SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND
SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY CERTIFICATE(S) UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.
AUTHORIZED SHARES
The reverse stock split would affect all issued and outstanding shares of the
Company's common stock and outstanding rights to acquire the Company's common
stock. Upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, the number of
authorized shares of the Company's common stock that are not issued or
outstanding would increase due to the reduction in the number of shares of the
Company's common stock issued and outstanding based on the reverse stock split
ratio selected by the Board of Directors. As of September 1, 2005, we had
100,000,000 shares of authorized common stock and 52,112,295 shares of common
stock issued and outstanding. We will continue to have 1,000,000 authorized
shares of preferred stock, all of which are unissued at this time. Authorized
but unissued shares will be available for issuance, and we may issue such shares
in the future. If we issue additional shares, the ownership interest of holders
of the Company's common stock will be diluted.
ACCOUNTING MATTERS
The reverse stock split will not affect the par value of the Company's common
stock. As a result, as of the effective time of the reverse stock split, the
stated capital attributable to the Company's common stock on its balance sheet
will be reduced proportionately based on the reverse stock split ratio selected
by the Board of Directors, and the additional paid-in capital account will be
credited with the amount by which the stated capital is reduced. The per-share
net income or loss and net book value of the Company's common stock will be
restated because there will be fewer shares of the Company's common stock
outstanding.
PROCEDURE FOR EFFECTING REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
If the Board of Directors decides to implement the reverse stock split at any
time prior to September 20, 2006, we will promptly file a Certificate of
Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Colorado to amend our
existing Certificate of Incorporation. The reverse stock split will become
effective on the date of filing the Certificate of Amendment, which is referred
to as the "effective date." Beginning on the effective date, each certificate
representing pre-reverse stock split shares will be deemed for all corporate
purposes to evidence ownership of post-reverse stock split shares. The text of
the Certificate of Amendment is set forth in Exhibit A to this information
statement. The text of the Certificate of Amendment is subject to modification
to include such changes as may be required by the office of the Secretary of
State of the State of Colorado and as the Board of Directors deems necessary and
advisable to effect the reverse stock split, including the applicable ratio for
the reverse stock split.
NO APPRAISAL RIGHTS
Under the Business Corporation Act of the State of Colorado, the Company's
shareholders are not entitled to appraisal rights with respect to the reverse
stock split, and we will not independently provide shareholders with any such
right.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
The following is a summary of certain material United States federal income tax
consequences of the reverse stock split, does not purport to be a complete
discussion of all of the possible federal income tax consequences of the reverse
stock split and is included for general information only. Further, it does not
address any state, local or foreign income or other tax consequences. Also, it
does not address the tax consequences to holders that are subject to special tax
rules, such as banks, insurance companies, regulated investment companies,
personal holding companies, foreign entities, nonresident alien individuals,
broker-dealers and tax-exempt entities. The discussion is based on the
provisions of the United States federal income tax law as of the date hereof,
which is subject to change retroactively as well as prospectively. This summary
also assumes that the pre-reverse stock split shares were, and the post-reverse
stock split shares will be, held as a "capital asset," as defined in the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (i.e., generally, property held for
investment). The tax treatment of a shareholder may vary depending upon the
particular facts and circumstances of such shareholder. Each shareholder is
urged to consult with such shareholder's own tax advisor with respect to the tax
consequences of the reverse stock split. As used herein, the term United States
holder means a shareholder that is, for federal income tax purposes: a citizen
or resident of the United States; a corporation or other entity taxed as a
corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any
State of the United States or the District of Columbia; an estate the
income of which is subject to federal income tax regardless of its source; or a
trust if a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over the
administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to
control all substantial decisions of the trust.
No gain or loss should be recognized by a shareholder upon such shareholder's
exchange of pre-reverse stock split shares for post-reverse stock split shares
pursuant to the reverse stock split. The aggregate tax basis of the post-reverse
stock split shares received in the reverse stock split will be the same as the
shareholder's aggregate tax basis in the pre-reverse stock split shares
exchanged therefor. The shareholder's holding period for the post-reverse stock
split shares will include the period during which the shareholder held the
pre-reverse stock split shares surrendered in the reverse stock split.
Our view regarding the tax consequences of the reverse stock split is not
binding on the Internal Revenue Service or the courts. ACCORDINGLY, EACH
SHAREHOLDER SHOULD CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO ALL
OF THE POTENTIAL TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HIM OR HER OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT.
VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF
The following table lists, as of October 17, 2005, the number of shares of
common stock beneficially owned by (i) each person or entity known to the

directors as a group. Information relating to beneficial ownership of common
stock by our principal shareholders and management is based upon information
furnished by each person using "beneficial ownership" concepts under the rules

to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting
power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or
investment power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the
