BUSINESS -------- GENERAL ATEC Group, Inc. ("the Company" or "ATEC") is a one-stop provider for a full line of information technology products and services to businesses, professionals, government and educational institutions. We offer multiple solutions to our clients that we believe generate loyalty and improve our ability to seek higher margins. We have developed several core competencies, including system design, software development, networking, server-based computing, help desk, wireless telecommunications, voice over IP, e-commerce, web hosting, , ASP and Internet/Intranet solutions. Recently we entered the IT enabled services with an emphasis on call centers. In furtherance of our efforts to provide end-to-end solutions to clients, we continue to commit resources to establish our PC manufacturing division, Nexar(R), which offers a line of branded computer products built with state-of-the-art technology, minimizing upgrade cost. Nexar provides unique 24 x 7 toll-free hardware and software support, including off-the-shelf software. Our e-commerce website, www.atecgroup.com, is designed to ensure our clients seamless access, security, speed and ease of use. It employs a unique and powerful search engine and database that was developed in-house and is continually being reengineered. We plan to market this search engine and e-commerce development capability as a new offering to our clients while continuing our own expansion into the e-commerce marketplace. www.atecgroup.com offers over 60,000 information technology (IT) products from major PC and peripheral manufacturers along with access to comprehensive technical specifications and availability on most of these products that allows buyers to shop, compare and procure all their IT product needs through one place, easily and quickly, making us a one-stop solution provider. The site also offers our Nexar PC line of products directly to end-users and corporate clients. Most industry experts agree that e-business will dramatically impact traditional supply chains and distribution channels. E-marketers estimate e-business revenues to exceed $3.5 trillion by the year 2002 and reach in excess of $7.0 trillion by 2004, representing over 7% of all sales transactions worldwide. With that in mind, we continually aim to be a part of the e-business segment growth. However, we believe that existing relationships will not vanish overnight. Our goal is to continue to strengthen our presence in both the business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) segments of e-commerce, each of which is critical to strengthening our core business objective of providing a one-stop, value-added service and product solution. 4 As the decision-making process that confronts organizations while planning, selecting and implementing information technology solutions has grown more complex, it became necessary for us to create an enterprise-focused team, our Technology Integration Services (TIS) division, to streamline and strengthen our core business. Our TIS trained support staff has opened new avenues for us such as turn-key server-based computing, storage networks and complete end-to-end solutions, including implementation, project management and program custom applications on platforms such as Citrix, Microsoft NT, Netware, Linux, Unix, Java and others. INDUSTRY Complex computer information processing systems, the foundation on which business and organizations now function, are continuously being redesigned, modified and upgraded as new computer and telecommunications technologies are introduced. Until the mid-1980s, either mid-range or mainframe computer systems were used to manage an organization's mission-critical, transaction-oriented functions, such as banking, credit transactions, point-of-sale and airline reservations. In the late 1980s, a new architecture for information processing called "client/server" computing emerged, fueled by the growing intelligence in desktop computers, expanding capabilities of software applications and growing capabilities of networks. A client/server system typically consists of multiple intelligent desktop client computers linked with high- performance server computers by a LAN/WAN providing flexibility and mobility to a wide range of applications. Most corporations today are seeking to reconfigure their existing mainframe/mid-range computers (sometimes referred to as "legacy systems") to operate in parallel with client/server networks. We believe that these two information system models, legacy systems and client/server systems, will continue to coexist, providing advantages for certain applications. Over the past several years, the increase in performance of personal computers and the development of a variety of effective business connectivity software programs have led to an industry shift away from mainframe computer systems to client/server systems. The markets for information technology products and services are expected to continue to experience significant growth over the next few years. According to Data Quest Inc., a leading industry market research firm, the U.S. market for personal computers is expected to increase from $80 billion in 1998 to $103 billion in 2001, a compound growth rate of 9%. We believe that the leading factors driving the growth in the markets are the continued transition to distributed computing technologies, such as client/server. 5 BUSINESS STRATEGY We as a value-added reseller, distribute products to major clients and other resellers, and provide services such as consulting, procurement, built-to-order, networking and hardware sales to our clients. We focus on servicing small and medium-size enterprises (SME), which often do not have the adequate IT personnel to procure, design, install or maintain complex systems to incorporate continuously evolving technologies. Since 1998, the PC market underwent major changes as leading manufacturers such as IBM, Compaq, Toshiba, Apple and Hewlett-Packard shifted their focus away from the reseller channel towards direct marketing. Such actions by the major manufacturers significantly affected the distribution business due to the availability of products and competition on direct volume sales. In response, we changed our focus to exit low margin distribution sales and enter into complementary lines of business by: o Enhancing our existing value added/system integration services into a Technical Integration Services (TIS) division as the strategic marketing arm to serve clients effectively; o Expanding into Internet and e-solutions with atecone.net and atecgroup.com, respectively; o Acquiring the intellectual properties of Nexar and establishing a PC manufacturing division; o Enhancing our software development capabilities through offshore alliances; and o Creating a consolidated new corporate structure to streamline administrative functions and stimulate future growth. MARKETING STRATEGY Our marketing strategy is to educate business clients about our ability to provide a single source, end-to-end solution that reduces total cost of ownership. In an effort to create a unique identity and distinguish ourselves from the competition, we have committed our resources to assisting our clients in the implementation of the latest changes in the IT industry. We are an authorized dealer for leading manufacturers such as Compaq, Gateway, Hewlett-Packard, Apple, Novell, Informix, Quest Communications, AMD, Citrix, Microsoft, 3 COM, Toshiba, Oracle, Sybase, Intel, Computer Associates and numerous others. We provide our clients with a variety of products from microcomputers to client/servers to peripherals. To market our products, we enjoy partnering relationships with major computer distributors, including Ingram Micro, Tech Data and others, which have multiple distribution sites and collectively carry more than $1 billion in inventory at any given point. Through these two relationships, manufacturers on the one hand and distributors on the other, we offer our clients the best in information technology products while reducing our inventory cost. To succeed in this competitive environment and to achieve greater client satisfaction, we offer our clients several distinct advantages: o A commitment to providing a single source, "end-to-end" solution to their individual data processing needs; 6 o Low cost overhead structures, including limited inventory, extensive use of warehousing of our allied distributors and automated management and operating functions, thereby enabling us to hold costs down; o Continual pursuit of new products and service offerings in response to market conditions, and o Responsive, expert service and support. PRODUCTS, SERVICES AND SOLUTIONS We market a broad selection of products with a focus on microcomputers, client/servers and peripherals manufactured by major vendors. Our subsidiaries are authorized sales and service dealers for major IT manufacturers. The sales of products by major manufacturers such as Apple, Compaq, Toshiba, Gateway, Epson and Hewlett-Packard generated over 50% of our revenue for the year ended June 30, 2001. The agreements with these vendors are generally renewed periodically and permit termination by manufacturers without cause, generally upon 30 to 90 days notice. These provisions are standard in the computer reseller industry. We evaluate product assortment based on technological advances, availability and marketability of the products. We continually seek to expand our product offerings in response to market conditions. Service and support is performed with an emphasis on achieving higher profit margins while ensuring quality service to our clients. We have excellent vendor/dealer relationships with major national distributors, enabling us to source our products from multi-distribution channels. PC Manufacturing Nexar(R), a division of ATEC with patented technologies, is an innovative manufacturer of personal computers with a fundamentally different approach to personal computing. Nexar manufactures PCs that allow for customization of the system and enable end-users to affordably upgrade all major system components, including future processors and technology advances. Nexar has developed three lines of personal computers with high-resolution, high-performance monitors, and is committed to continually developing and introducing new product lines to keep ahead of technology. The current product lines of Nexar are: Enable Series: This series captures the true essence of the PC, powered by the latest class of processors, and is built to the rigorous standards of ISO 9002 specifications. Superior quality and performance are combined to create top value in the world of desktop computers. Enable is aimed at the cost-conscious consumer. Empower Series: These systems are built to the client's specifications using widely accepted quality components and peripherals to ensure 100% compatibility. This line is the ideal solution for clients who demand to stay on the cutting edge of technology. The 7 Empower line is aimed at corporate users who require value and the flexibility of standard options and components. Infinity Series: This series incorporates Nexar's patented XPA technology, which uses standard components but allows for processor and memory upgrades across processor generations from within the same PC footprint. Nexar offers its products through our extended sales and marketing group, national retail channels and directly through our web sites: www.nexarusa.com and www.atecgroup.com. Global Distribution Global Distribution "GD" has been operating in this marketplace for over 15 years. It enjoys direct relationships with a number of manufacturers that seek out in advance when they have product that fit the Global Distribution model. These manufactures include Cisco, IBM, Compaq, HP, NEC, Toshiba, View Sonic and many others. Several studies highlight the fact that the majority of technology users never fully utilize the capabilities of their installed systems. For those times that IT professionals are seeking a less expensive way to implement a project, Global Distribution acquires Brand Name, New, Fully Warranted Late Life Cycle products that can be serviced by any authorized provider. These products are acquired in volume and at costs typically 30-50% below market. Global Distribution is a B2B division of ATEC that offers a unique combination of price and delivery to other resellers, retailers and enterprise customers. Our low cost overhead structure - selective inventory, extensive use of warehousing facilities of allied vendors and distributors - ensures cost effective solutions. Technology Integration Service The microcomputer industry is characterized by numerous hardware systems that utilize different and often incompatible standards for hardware and software applications. Further, as new technologies in PCs, telecommunication and wireless are introduced, organizations need to continually redesign, upgrade and modify their existing systems. In response to these growing IT requirements, we recognize the need to go beyond the traditional system integration approach (trouble shooting, networking, custom configuration of technology) and to create an enterprise focused team: its Technology Integration Services (TIS) division. The TIS group is focused on providing value-added solutions to allow customers to take advantage of the technology they need without many of the obstacles required to implement them. The services offered by TIS include: 8 1. Technology fulfillment and management 2. Staff augmentation and outsourcing 3. Professional and network services-ATEC branded solutions 4. Server-based computing (Microsoft Terminal Server and Citrix Metaframe) 5. Software solutions 6. E-commerce, Internet access, ISP and Internet integration 7. End-user support 8. Special technology and markets Software Solutions We offer both project management capabilities and technical expertise to deliver high-quality custom software to our clients. We provide a wide range of services, including analysis, design, coding, testing, deployment, implementation, training and maintenance. IT Enabled Services In the global, digital economy, the biggest challenge faced by a business enterprise is to reach, retain, acquire and service customers in a shrinking world - thanks to the universal penetration of the Internet. Today's empowered customer, regardless of the industry, company, or product has 3 expectations: o Easy and immediate access to information, o Personalized service, o Prompt and efficient response and resolution of problems. Businesses are tapping into global availability of skilled resources and technology to address these customer needs and achieving significant improvements in cost, quality and time to deliver these services. IT-enabled services are parts of the value chain (business process and services), which are sourced from a geographic area different from the location of the end users. They are usually delivered over private or efficient public networks and are frequently offered cross-border rather than from within the same national borders of the end user. McKinsey predicts that the global IT-enabled services opportunity is likely to grow to $142 billion by 2008. Customer interaction services, financial processing, accounting services and data management services will account for almost 90 percent of the market. According to IDC, worldwide spending on customer relationship management services is expected to be about $90 billion annually by 2003. 9 ATEC's IT- enabled services include: o Customer Interaction Center Customer Relationship Management Call Center / Contact Center Help Desk Telemarketing Market research o Software Development & Maintenance A call center traditionally is defined as a physical location with telecom links for incoming and outgoing calls and trained agents to carry out sales and support activities. In today's market environment, a call center is really much more than that. It leverages convergence technologies of the WWW, internet, computer, telephony and CRM software to provide an integrated customer contact center with the focus on meeting a customer's needs for easy access, personalized services and fast response and resolution of problems. It collects valuable data about the customers, which is used to further strengthen the customer relationship. It acts as the central point for all forms of interaction between the company and its customers - phone call, telemarketing, web site, email, fax, chat, on-line support etc. ATEC's off-shore customer contact center combines data and voice communication along with trained consultants to provide a variety of customer interaction related functions such as marketing, selling, information dispensing, technical support, help desk etc. A dedicated line circuit connects the offshore contact center to ATEC's Commack headquarters. We entered this market in April 2001. COMPETITION The microcomputer market is very competitive, and as such we compete directly with major PC manufacturers, a variety of local and national distributors, super stores, retailers, mail order houses and other entities that offer computer products and services. We compete with these entities based on our commitment to provide a cost-effective, single source, "end-to-end" solution to our clients' IT needs. We attempt to competitively price hardware and software items with our wide range of customer support and services; however, we do not focus on pricing as our primary competitive strength. Rather, we believe that our principal strength is our ability to offer clients complete and cost-efficient solutions to their individual IT needs. 10 BACKLOG We do not have a significant backlog, as we normally deliver and install the computer products purchased by our clients within a short time of the date of order. GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION AND CONTRACTS We believe that we are in compliance with federal and state laws and regulations that are applicable to our operations. We are not a party to any government contract that represents a material portion of our revenue or that, if terminated or renegotiated, would have a material adverse effect on our business. PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS Patented Technology The U.S. Patent & Trademark Office awarded Nexar a patent for its advanced PC motherboard and chassis design. The patent addresses the Nexar PC's Inverted Socket Process Architecture and design that place the processor, system memory and cache sockets on the undercarriage of the motherboard and a "future ready" XPA design that incorporates a highly innovative split motherboard design. XPA is a substantial enhancement to our ISPA patent because it supports multiple processor architectures. The XPA design separates the most stable components of a PC from those components that are most susceptible to technology obsolescence, easily enabling resellers and users to adapt to rapidly changing technologies. Trademark On May 11, 1999, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted us a trademark for Nexar. We currently use the Nexar mark on our line of computers. The registration is enforceable for ten (10) years. EMPLOYEES As of September 14, 2001, there was an aggregate of approximately 106 employees, including 5 administrators, 20 staff persons, 13 managers, 35 full-time sales persons, 30 technical and 3 warehouse personnel. We have no collective bargaining agreements and believe that relations with our employees are good. 11 ITEM 2.

All earnings per share reflect our one-for-five reverse stock split in November 1997. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ------------- Background We are a leading system integrator and provider of a full line of IT service products, as well as a single source, "end-to-end" solution provider for the computer needs of businesses, professionals, government agencies and educational institutions. 14 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Fiscal 2001 compared to Fiscal 2000 Revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001 ("fiscal 2001") decreased to $53.1 million from $71.9 million for the prior year, a decrease of approximately 26%. This decrease is primarily attributable to a significant drop in sales in our TIS division and a $2.3 million decline in our former Y2K consulting group. Gross profit for fiscal 2001 decreased to $6.3 million from $11.6 million for 2000, a 46% decrease due to the decreased revenues. Gross margin for fiscal 2001 was 12% as compared to 16% for the prior year. Fiscal 2001 operating expenses, exclusive of amortization of intangible assets, decreased to $10.6 million as compared to $11.1 million for the prior year. The 4% decrease in operating expenses is related primarily to decreased costs in our former Y2K consulting group. Amortization of intangible assets was essentially unchanged in 2001. We incurred a one-time charge of $23,000 for impaired Goodwill. We also earned $52,000 of interest income and incurred $1,500 of interest expense in 2001. The provision for income taxes for 2001 was $38,000 as compared to an expense of $102,000 for 2000. The current year benefit from income taxes was reduced by a reserve against our deferred tax asset of $1,438,000. As a result of the above, the Company incurred a loss of $4,525,134 for 2001 compared to net income of $296,953 in 2000. For 2001, basic and diluted net loss per share was $.64 compared to basic and diluted net income of $.04 per share in the prior year. Basic and diluted average shares outstanding were 7,088,603 for 2001. Fiscal 2000 compared to Fiscal 1999 Revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000 ("fiscal 2000") decreased to $71.9 million from $107.4 million for the prior year, a decrease of approximately 33%. This decrease is primarily attributable to our exit from the low margin wholesale business. Our revenues are generated by sales of computer hardware and software, and related support services. Gross profit for fiscal 2000 increased to $11.6 million from $11.1 million for 1999, a 5% increase due to the higher margin revenues. Gross margin for fiscal 2000 improved to 16.1% as compared to 10.3% for the prior year. Fiscal 2000 operating expenses, exclusive of amortization of intangible assets, decreased to $11.1 million as compared to $12.7 million for the prior year. Amortization of intangible assets decreased to $187,000 for the year from $443,000 in the comparable 1999 period. In 1999 we incurred one-time charges of $3,000,000 of goodwill for prior acquisitions. We also earned $63,000 of interest income and incurred $11,000 of interest expense in fiscal 2000 due to our continued strong working capital position. 15 The provision for income taxes for 2000 was $102,000 as compared to a benefit of $641,000 for 1999. As a result of the above, we had net income of $297,000 for fiscal 2000 compared to net loss of $4,300,000 in fiscal 1999. For 2000, net income per share was $.04 compared to a net loss of $.62 per share in the prior year. Basic and diluted average shares outstanding were each approximately 7,200,000 for fiscal 2000. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The cash position was $1,555,020 at June 30, 2001, an increase of $1,454,413 as compared to June 30, 2000. Working capital at June 30, 2001, was $5,253,000 as compared to working capital of $9,342,000 at June 30, 2000. The major sources of cash were derived primarily from reductions of inventory on hand and accounts receivable ($4,968,000). Cash used for investing activities totaled $105,000. We believe that our resources are adequate to meet our capital requirements over the next twelve months. To accommodate our financial needs for inventory financing, we have arranged lines of credit with two financial institutions in the aggregate amount of $15,775,000. At June 30, 2001, our indebtedness to these institutions was $1,024,000, or a decrease of $1,149,600 compared to June 30, 2000. Substantially all tangible and intangible assets are pledged as collateral for these facilities. In September 2001 we eliminated the $15,000,000 line and our assets are no longer pledged as collateral. ITEM 7A. QUANTITIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS --------------------------------------------------------- We presently do not use any derivative financial instruments to hedge our exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates, fluctuations in commodity prices or other market risks, nor do we invest in speculative financial instruments. Borrowings under our line of credit are at Prime plus a quarter percent, which is adjusted monthly. Our interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates, particularly since the majority of our investments are in short-term instruments. Due to the nature of ATEC's borrowings and short-term investments, we have concluded that there is no material risk exposure and, therefore, no quantitative tabular disclosures are required. 16 ITEM 8.

F-6 ATEC GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2001, 2000, AND 1999 NOTE 1- GENERAL AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (a) Organization and Presentation of Financial Statements: ATEC Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "ATEC") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 17, 1992. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ATEC Group, Inc. and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries and a 90% owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. (b) Principal Business Activity: The Company is an "end to end" provider of a full line of computer and information technology products and services to business, professionals, government agencies and educational institutions. The Company focuses on system design, high-speed data transmission, LAN/WAN, video conferencing, internet/intranet technology, digital arts solutions, PC manufacturing, E-commerce and internet access services for its customers. (c) Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. (d) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (1) Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method. Inventories consist of microcomputer hardware, software and related peripherals, accessories and finished products. F-7 NOTE 1- GENERAL AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (Continued) (d) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (2) Property and Equipment: Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. When assets are sold or retired, the cost and related accumulated depreciation is eliminated from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income for the period. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and replacements which substantially extend the lives of the assets are capitalized. Depreciation is computed on either straight-line or accelerated methods over useful lives ranging from 5 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the improvement or the life of the related lease. (3) Goodwill: The Company amortizes goodwill over its estimated period of benefit, ranging from five to fifteen years. The goodwill is periodically reviewed to evaluate the future economic benefits and/or potential impairments which may effect recorded values. (4) Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes revenue at the time products are shipped to its customers, or when sales are made on a "cash and carry" basis. (5) Research and Development Costs: Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. (6) Income Taxes: The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" which utilizes a balance sheet approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes, and requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be established at income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in periods in which the deferred tax asset or liability is expected to be settled or realized. F-8 NOTE 1- GENERAL AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (Continued) (d) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued) (7) Concentrations of Credit Risk: Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions which at times, may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are generally limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base. A substantial portion of the Company's revenue is derived from customers located in the northeastern region of the United States. An economic downturn in the geographic region could have an adverse effect on the Company's operations. Management continually reviews its trade receivables credit risk and has adequately allowed for potential losses. (8) Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. (9) Asset Impairment: The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of". This statement requires that the Company recognize an impairment loss in the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, and an estimate of future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Property and equipment is evaluated separately within each subsidiary. The recoverability of goodwill is evaluated on a separate basis for each acquisition. Based on an evaluation of its goodwill at June 30, 2001 and 1999, the Company determined that $22,645 and $2,999,075, respectively, of goodwill, net of accumulated amortization, associated with the Company's prior acquisitions was impaired. F-9 NOTE 1- GENERAL AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (Continued) (d) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued) (10) Earnings Per Share: The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average of all common shares issued and outstanding, and is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares used in the basic earnings per share calculation plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive securities outstanding. For the years ended June 30, 2001 and 1999, diluted earnings per share are not presented as it is anti-dilutive. Below is the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for each of the past three fiscal years: For the Years Ended June 30, ----------------------------------------- 2001 2000 1999 ----------- ----------- ----------- Net income (loss) available to common stockholders $(4,525,134) $ 296,953 $(4,299,228) =========== =========== =========== Weighted average shares outstanding - basic 7,088,603 7,177,432 6,885,069 Employee stock options - 18,392 - Acquisition options - 17,945 - Convertible preferred stock - 8,158 - ----------- ----------- ----------- Weighted average shares outstanding - diluted 7,088,603 7,221,927 6,885,069 =========== =========== =========== Earnings (loss) per common share: Basic ($.64) $ .04 ($.62) ==== ===== ==== Diluted ($.64) $ .04 ($.62) ==== ===== ==== (11) New Accounting Pronouncements: In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement NO. 141, ACCOUNTING FOR BUSINESS COMBINATIONS, and Statement No. 142, GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS. These Statements modify accounting for business combinations after June 30, 2001 and will affect the Company's treatment of goodwill at the start of fiscal year 2002. SFAS No. 141 prohibits pooling-of-interests accounting for acquisitions. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill existing at the date of adoption be reviewed for possible impairment and the impairment tests be periodically repeated, with impaired assets written-down to fair value. Additionally, existing goodwill must be assessed and classified consistent with the Statements' criteria. The Company will adopt FASB No. 142 beginning July 1, 2001, at which time amortization of goodwill will cease. At this time, the Company has not determined the complete impact of these Statements. However, for the year ended June 30, 2001, the Company has recognized $189,327 of goodwill amortization. F-10 NOTE 2 - ACQUISITIONS. (a) Logix Solutions, Inc.: On April 7, 1998, the Company, pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement, acquired 90% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Logix Solutions, Inc.

(b) Nexar Technologies, Inc.: On January 15, 1999 the Company purchased the trademarks and patents of Nexar Technologies, Inc. resulting in goodwill of $405,805. In May 1999, the Company registered the trademark for the "Nexar" brand name. F-11 NOTE 3- EQUITY SECURITIES.
