                 SORRENTO NETWORKS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

          FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2003 AND 2002

The Company

     Sorrento Networks Corporation (the "Company," "We," "Our," or "Us") through
its subsidiaries designs, manufactures and markets integrated networking and
bandwidth aggregation and optical access products for enhancing the performance
of data and telecommunications networks. Our products are deployed in telephone
companies, Internet Service Providers, governmental bodies and the
corporate/campus networks that make up the "enterprise" segment of the
networking marketplace. We have facilities in San Diego and Sunnyvale,
California and various sales offices located in the United States and Europe. We
market and sell our products and services through a broad array of channels
including worldwide distributors, value added resellers, local and long distance
carriers and governmental agencies.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying financial data for the three and nine months periods ended
October 31, 2003 and 2002, along with financial data for January 31, 2003, has
been prepared by us, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The January 31,
2003 balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not
include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. However, we believe that the disclosures we have
made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended January 31, 2003.

     We have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations
for the past two years. SNI, our principal operating subsidiary, has primarily
been the operating entity responsible for these losses and negative cash flows.
The losses have been generated as SNI, as well as our newly acquired LuxN
subsidiary, continue to develop their technology, marketing, sales and
operations in efforts to become major suppliers of metro and regional optical
networks worldwide. We fund our operations primarily through a combination of
internal funds, investments, and debt and equity financing. There can be no
assurance that similar funding will be available in the future. Further, with
the recent downturn in the economic environment and decreases in capital
spending by telecom carriers, we believe our current and future revenues could
be negatively impacted. As a result, future increases in working capital will be
required to both maintain and grow our business along with a continued and
substantial focus on reducing operating expenses. Given the uncertainty and/or
unpredictability of the telecom market and the limited amount of our existing
working capital there can be no assurance that our existing financial resources
will be sufficient to cover our operational needs for the next twelve months.
Our current cash resources provide for less than six months of working capital
based upon our historical losses. If however, our revenues show improvement, we
implement our plans on expense reductions and attract additional working capital
through the issuance of stock or debt, our balance sheet will be significantly
improved and will provide us with the necessary financial resources to meet our
operational plans for a period exceeding one year. Our future capital
requirements may vary materially from those now planned including the need for
additional working capital to accommodate planned growth, hiring and
infrastructure needs. There can be no assurances that our working capital
requirements will not exceed our ability to generate sufficient cash internally
to support our requirements and that external financing will be available or
that, if available, such financing can be obtained on terms favorable to us and
our shareholders. We are actively pursuing several alternatives and
opportunities in order to strengthen our financial condition.

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 that affect the reported amounts of assets,


                                       7





<PAGE>

liabilities, revenues and expenses, the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. In the
opinion of Management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring
adjustments and charges described in the notes to the financial statements)
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and
cash flows for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2003 and 2002 have
been made. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended October
31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full
year.

     Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year presentations to
conform to the fiscal year 2004 presentation.

Digi International, Inc. and NETsilicon, Inc.

     The remaining 1,162,341 DIGI shares were sold on May 2, 2003 for $4.26 per
share. The purchaser of the stock was again DIGI. The proceeds from this sale,
in the amount of approximately $5.0 million, were deposited on May 7, 2003.

     In accordance with a settlement agreement reached between Sorrento Networks
and our former Chairman and Founder, Par Chadha, 566,000 shares of ENI stock
were transferred to Mr. Chadha in exchange for mutual releases by the Company
and Mr. Chadha and certain of his affiliates. The stock transfer was completed
on July 1, 2003 and had a value of $88 thousand. In addition, we transferred
128,214 shares of ENI stock to settle a dispute between a former employee and
the Company. The value of the transfer was $20 thousand and was completed on
July 16, 2003.

Stock Compensation

     We account for employee-based stock compensation utilizing the intrinsic
value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Accordingly, compensation cost for
stock options issued to employees is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair
market price of our common stock at the date of grant over the amount an
employee must pay to acquire the stock. This amount appears as a separate
component of stockholders' equity and is being amortized on an accelerated basis
by charges to operations over the vesting period of the options in accordance
with the method described in Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation
No. 28. All such amounts relate to options to acquire common stock of our
subsidiary Sorrento Networks, Inc. ("SNI") granted by it to its employees;
during the three and nine months ended October 31, 2003 and 2002 it amortized $0
and $62 thousand, and $5 thousand and $157 thousand, respectively, of the total
$2.6 million initially recorded for deferred stock compensation. As of April 30,
2003 the deferred stock compensation amount of $2.6 million has been fully
amortized.

     For non-employees, we compute the fair value of stock-based compensation in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation," and Emerging Issues Tax Force (EITF) 96-18,
"Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for
Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services." All such amounts
relate to options to acquire common stock of our subsidiary Sorrento Networks,
Inc. ("SNI") granted by it to its consultants; during the three and nine months
ended October 31, 2003 and 2002 it recorded $0 and $46 thousand, and $46
thousand and $45 thousand, respectively, for options granted to consultants.
As of April 30, 2003 the deferred stock compensation for non-employees was
fully amortized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 150. "Accounting for
Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity" ("SFAS 150"). SFAS 150 clarifies the accounting for certain financial
instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity and requires
that those instruments be classified as liabilities in the balance sheets.
Previously, many of those financial instruments were classified as equity. SFAS
150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May
31, 2003 and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003. We adopted this pronouncement with no material
impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

     In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of SFAS No. 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 149"). SFAS 149 amends and
clarifies accounting for derivative instruments,


                                       8





<PAGE>

including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for
hedging activities under SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). In particular, it (1) clarifies under what
circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristic
of a derivative as discussed in SFAS 133, (2) clarifies when a derivative
contains a financing component, (3) amends certain definitions to conform it to
the language used in FASB Interpretation No. ("FIN") 45, "Guarantor Accounting
and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others" ("FIN 45") and (4) amends certain other existing
pronouncements. SFAS 149 will be effective for contracts entered into or
modified after June 30, 2003, except as stated below, and for hedging
relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The provisions of SFAS 149 that
relate to guidance in SFAS 133 Implementation Issues that have been effective
for fiscal quarters which began prior to June 15, 2003, will continue to be
applied in accordance with their respective effective dates. In addition,
certain provisions relating to forward purchases or sales of when-issued
securities or other securities that do not yet exist, will be applied to both
existing contracts as well as new contracts entered into after June 30, 2003 We
adopted this pronouncement with no material impact on our results of operations
and financial condition.

     In November 2002, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") reached a
consensus on Issue 00-21, "Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple
Deliverables" ("EITF 00-21"). In the absence of higher level accounting
literature, EITF 00-21 governs how to separate and allocate revenue to goods or
services or both that are to be delivered in a bundled sales arrangement. EITF
00-21 applies to revenue arrangements entered into after June 30, 2003 and
allows for either prospective application or cumulative adjustment upon
adoption. We have adopted the guidance of EITF 00-21 with no material effect on
our financial condition or results of operations.

     Marketable Securities--Marketable securities, which consist of equity
securities that have a readily determinable fair value and do not have sale
restrictions lasting beyond one year from the balance sheet date, are classified
into categories based on our intent. Our investments in DIGI and Entrada are
classified as available for sale and are carried at fair value, based upon
quoted market prices, with net unrealized gains reported as a separate component
of stockholders' equity until realized. Unrealized losses are charged against
income when a decline in fair value is determined to be other than temporary. At
October 31, 2003, and January 31, 2003, marketable securities were as follows:

     Intangible Assets--Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are no
longer amortized but are subject to periodic impairment tests. We have no
goodwill or indefinite life intangible assets. Other intangible assets with
finite lives, such as our purchased technology, are amortized over their useful
lives.

The carrying value of finite life intangible assets, consisting of purchased
technology of our subsidiary Meret Optical, as of October 31, 2003, is
approximately $122 thousand, net of amortization. The change in the net carrying
amount of finite life intangible assets during the nine months ended October 31,
2003 is due to amortization of $309 thousand. The $122 thousand remaining book
value is expected to be amortized at approximately $102 in the fourth quarter
of Fiscal 2004 and $20 thousand in Fiscal 2005.

     Non-marketable securities - consists of an investment we made into a
non-public or privately funded exchange carrier. Their principal business is
selling broadband services to enterprise customers and they principally use
networks that have deployed our equipment for WDM transport. Our investment in
this company reflects the price we paid for Series C Preferred Stock at that
time of the investment. The value of our investment is difficult to ascertain
and is subject to certain elements such as market conditions, revenue growth,
financial performance and future financings for their company. As of the end of
October 31, 2003, there can be no assurance that we could sell our securitiesr
for an amount equal to our investment.

     Debentures - During August 2001, we completed a private placement of our
9.75% convertible debentures receiving net proceeds of $29.8 million. The
debentures, due August 2, 2004 had a face value of $32.2 million, which was
convertible into our common stock at $144.20 per share. At maturity, we could
have elected to redeem the debentures for cash and we had the option of paying
the interest on these debentures in shares of our common stock. In addition, the
purchasers received four year warrants to acquire an additional 167,592 shares
of our common stock at $144.20 per share and the placement agent received five
year warrants to acquire 5,583 shares of our common stock, equity securities,
options or warrants at a price less than $144.20 per share or at a discount to
the then market price. The conversion price and warrant exercise were subject to
adjustment.

     In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") No. 00-27 we
accounted for the fair value of warrants issued to the purchasers and placement
agent and the fair value of the deemed beneficial conversion feature, which
resulted solely as a result of the required accounting, of the debenture as a
reduction to the face value of the debentures with an offsetting increase to
additional paid in capital. These amounts, as well as the issuance costs paid in
cash, were amortized as additional interest expense over the period the
debentures were outstanding.

     On March 6, 2003, we and our wholly-owned subsidiary Sorrento Networks,
Inc. entered into an Exchange Agreement with the holders of our 9.75% Senior
Convertible Debentures (the "9.75% Debentures") and the Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") of Sorrento Networks, Inc. The Exchange
Agreement and associated documents contemplated an exchange (the "Exchange") of
the 9.75% Debentures and the Preferred Stock at closing into shares of common
stock and $12.5 million of our new 7.5% Secured Convertible Debentures (the
"7.5% Debentures"). Certain holders of the Preferred Stock would also receive
additional 7.5% Debentures of approximately $600 thousand to pay certain legal
fees.

     The Exchange Agreement was approved by shareholders on May 29, 2003 and was
completed and became effective on June 4, 2003 pursuant to which we exchanged
current outstanding debentures and Series A Preferred Stock for common stock and
an issuance of a smaller principal amount of 7.5% Debentures.

     Interest expense on the 9.75% Debentures thru the June 4, 2003 exchange
date of approximately $3.5 million included the stated 9.75% interest of
approximately $1 million, amortization of issuance costs of $275 thousand and
amortization of the fair value of the warrants issued to the purchasers and
placement agent and deemed beneficial conversion feature of approximately $2.2
million.

     Interest expense on the 7.5% debentures during the three and nine months
ended October 31, 2003 was $248 thousand and $402 thousand, respectively.

     Stock Split - In October 2002, approval was granted for a one-for-twenty
reverse stock split effective October 28, 2002. The effect of this stock split
was reflected in the financial statements retroactively as if the stock split
occurred at the beginning of the earliest period reported.

     Each share of SNI's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible
into one share of SNI's common stock at the option of the holder, voted on an
"as converted" basis except for election of directors, and had a liquidation
preference of $5.45 per share. The shares were automatically convertible into
SNI's common stock upon

an underwritten public offering by SNI with an aggregate offering price of at
least $50.0 million. As SNI did not complete a $50.0 million public offering by
March 1, 2001, the holders of more than 50% of the then outstanding Series A
shares had the right to request in writing that SNI redeem them at the adjusted
liquidation preference. On receipt of such a request, SNI had the obligation to
redeem the shares in cash, if funds were lawfully available for such redemption,
or to redeem such pro rata portion as to which a lesser amount of lawfully
available funds existed. In April 2001, SNI received written redemption requests
from holders of a majority of the Series A shares. The difference between the
net proceeds received on the sale of these shares and their liquidation
preference of $48.8 million was recorded as a deemed dividend during the period
from issuance to March 31, 2001.

     On June 4, 2003, we consummated the Exchange Agreement and cancelled all
outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

     In connection to our capital and corporate restructuring plan, we issued
8,029,578 shares of common stock to the holders of the 9.75% debentures and the
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock upon consummation of the Exchange. The
Company's $32.2 million in convertible debentures were converted into common
shares of the Company and a portion of $12.5 million in secured convertible 7.5%
debentures that mature in August 2007. In addition, all Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock were converted into common shares of the Company and a portion
of the $12.5 million in secured convertible debentures. The outstanding Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock "put" of $48.8 million against SNI was withdrawn.
Certain Series A Convertible Preferred stockholders also received a total of
$600 thousand in additional secured convertible 7.5% debentures to pay certain
legal fees.

     There was an aggregate gain, net of tax, on the capital restructuring
transaction of $13.8 million. The conversion of the SNI Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock into common stock and a portion of the $12.5 million 7.50%
convertible debenture resulted in a net gain of $48.8 million. The gain was
off-set by the loss on the value of the warrants and beneficial conversion
feature on the $32.2 million, 9.75% convertible debentures, converted to common
stock and a portion of the 7.50% convertible debenture. The consolidated net
gain on the capital restructuring transaction was $13.8 million or $2.35 per
share for the quarter ending July 31, 2003.

     On August 8, 2003, we acquired LuxN Inc. for a combination of stock,
warrants, and cash. Stockholders of LuxN were given the option of exchanging
shares of LuxN stock for either their pro-rata portion of LuxN's net cash or
shares of Sorrento's common stock. In addition to the cash or Sorrento common
stock, stockholders of LuxN have the right to receive warrants to purchase an
aggregate of 400 thousand shares of Sorrento common stock, with an exercise
price of $3.05 per share, the fair market value on the date of the acquisition.
The warrants will be held in escrow for a period of six months to satisfy any
successful indemnification claims. At closing, Sorrento issued approximately 1.4
million shares of common stock with the remaining approximately 500 thousand
shares of common stock to be issued subject to stockholder approval.

LUXN ACQUISITION

On August 8, 2003, LuxN, Inc. was acquired by Sorrento Networks Corporation,
pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger ("the Agreement"), dated as of June
25, 2003. LuxN develops, manufactures and markets optical transport and
switching solutions for metropolitan service providers and enterprise customers.
We acquired LuxN to expand our offerings of optical transport and switching
solutions to a segment of customers we were not currently servicing. As of
August 8, 2003, the results of operations from LuxN are shown in our
consolidated income statement.

 The purchase consideration for the acquisition of LuxN amounted to
approximately $18 million consisting of cash paid and common stock issued. The
cash paid was approximately $14.8 million and was paid to LuxN's Series A-1
Preferred Stockholders who elected to receive cash in lieu of common stock. The
common stock was issued to LuxN shareholders who elected to exchange their
shares of LuxN stock for Sorrento Networks common stock. The Company issued
1,374,194 shares of its common stock at the per share fair value on the date of
issuance of $2.35 for an approximate value of $3.2 million. These shares were
issued August 8, 2003.

The purchase consideration excludes the value of 400,000 warrants issued in
connection with the purchase that are held in escrow until the expiration of an
indemnification period as per the Agreement. When and if the warrants are
released from escrow, the value of the warrants will be recorded as additional
purchase price consideration. The $900 thousand value of the 400,000 warrants
issued to LuxN shareholders who elected to exchange their shares of LuxN stock
for Sorrento Networks common stock was determined using the Black Scholes option
pricing model based on the following inputs: option price of $3.05, estimated
life of 5 years, volatility of 168% and no dividends. When released from escrow,
the fair value of these contingent warrants will be recorded as additional
purchase consideration.

The purchase consideration excludes the value of the future issuance of 505,153
shares of Sorrento Networks common stock to the LuxN shareholders who elected to
exchange their shares of LuxN stock for our common stock pursuant to the
Agreement. The shares will be issued upon shareholder approval and in return
$1.0 million of LuxN cash held in escrow will be released. The approximate value
of these shares is $1.2 million as of the acquisition date based upon the fair
market per share value of $2.35 on August 8, 2003. The fair value of these
contingent common shares will be recorded as additional purchase consideration.

On the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of the Company, the Company has
reflected contingent purchase consideration of approximately $2.3 million
arising from the contingently issuable warrants and common shares described
above and reimbursement for certain accounts receivable of approximately 200
thousand.

The accompanying balance sheet includes purchased technology of approximately
$864 thousand arising from the purchase of LuxN. The value assigned to the
purchased technology is based upon the Company's preliminary assessment of the
purchased technologies fair value. The Company is in the process of determining
the fair value of the purchased technology. The Company expects to complete the
valuation of the purchased technology in the near future and will make any
necessary adjustments to the purchase price as needed.

The balance sheet of LuxN as of August 8, 2003, is shown below reflecting the
preliminary application of purchase accounting.

Stock Option Plans

     We have five stock option plans in effect: The 2003 Equity Incentive Plan,
the 2000 Stock Incentive Plan, the 1988 Stock Option Plan, the 1997 Incentive
and Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan and the 1997 Director Stock Option Plan. The
stock options have been made available to certain employees and consultants. All
options are granted at not less than fair value at the date of grant and have
terms varying from 3 to 10 years. The purpose of these plans is to attract,
retain, motivate and reward our officers, directors, employees and consultants
to maximize their contribution towards our success. We account for these plans
under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No
stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all
options granted under these plans had an exercise price equal to the market
value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

     In order to provide more prominent and frequent disclosures about the
effects of stock-based compensation as required under SFAS 148, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure", the following table
summarizes the pro forma effect of stock-based compensation on net income and
earnings (loss) per share as if the optional expense recognition provisions of
SFAS 123 had been adopted.

     The fair value of stock options used to compute pro forma net loss and pro
forma loss per share disclosures is estimated using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model, which was developed for use in estimating the fair value
of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable.
In addition, this model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including
the expected price volatility of the underlying stock. Projected data for
expected volatility and expected life of stock options is based upon historical
and other data. Changes in these


                                       17





<PAGE>

subjective assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, and
therefore the existing valuation models may not provide a reliable single
measure of the fair value of the Company's employee stock options.

     Basic income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing the net
income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the period. Diluted income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing the
applicable net income (loss) by the sum of the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding and all additional common shares that would have been
outstanding if potentially dilutive common shares had been issued during the
period. The following data shows the effect on income and the weighted average
number of shares of dilutive potential common stock.

anti-dilutive.

Litigation

     On June 4, 2003, we consummated the exchange transaction and cancelled all
outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 9.75% Senior Convertible
Debentures. The Exchange Agreement provides that the litigation instituted by
the former holders of Series A stock be dismissed without prejudice against the
Company, its subsidiaries, its current officers and directors, and other
defendants who execute an appropriate release, and without prejudice against all
other defendants. This dismissal will require court approval, which is in the
process of being obtained by counsel for all parties.

     In addition, claims in arbitration were filed by two of our former
financial officers and employees who worked in our former Santa Monica office,
which has since been closed, alleging that their resignations in May 2002 were
for "good reason" as defined in their employment agreements, all of which were
to expire on May 22, 2002. One of the claims was settled in May 2003 for $45
thousand. The other claim was resolved by an arbitrator in August 2003 whom
ruled in our favor.

     A former officer of our SNI subsidiary brought suit alleging breach of a
consulting agreement we entered into with him in March 2002, following his
resignation "for good reason" as defined in his employment agreement. He was
seeking acceleration of consulting fees due to him under his consulting
agreement in the amount of $229 thousand. This suit was settled on December 1,
2003 for $15 thousand and $150 thousand worth of Sorrento common stock that was
distributed to him June 4, 2003.

     From time to time, we are involved in various other legal proceedings and
claims incidental to the conduct of our business. Although it is impossible to
predict the outcome of any outstanding legal proceedings, we believe that such
legal proceedings and claims, individually and in the aggregate, are not likely
to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of
operations, or cash flows.

Contingent Liabilities

     On August 8, 2003 we acquired LuxN for a combination of stock, warrants,
and cash previously held by LuxN. At October 31, 2003 Sorrento's balance sheet
contains a $2.3 million contingent liability. This contingent liability is made
up of $1.0 million in restricted cash, $242 thousand in accounts receivable and
the value of the 400,000 FIBR warrants held in escrow. This contingent liability
will be eliminated upon shareholder approval of the issuance of the remaining
approximately 500 thousand shares of Sorrento common stock to complete the
acquisition transaction.

     In 1996 we acquired a business from Cray Computers that eventually became
the basis of Entrada Networks, a subsidiary of ours that was spun-off in August
2003 through a merger agreement with Sync Research, a then


                                       20





<PAGE>

publicly traded NASDAQ company. Upon the purchase of the business from Cray
Computers, which subsequently was acquired by Anite Corporation, they assumed
the obligation of the pension plan and the right to terminate it within five
years from the date of purchase. If however after five years the plan had not
been terminated, the parties agreed to agree as to what to do with the plan on a
going forward basis. They did not terminate the plan during this five-year
period. In the third quarter of fiscal 2004, we were advised by a consultant
retained by us and by the successor corporation that the cost of termination
of the pension plan in question could be in excess of $2.0 million. While we do
not believe that we are liable for this cost, it is possible that the successor
corporation may try to seek a substantial contribution from us towards this
liability. We have not been involved with the plan for these periods and have no
employees that are participants or covered by the plan.

Concentration Of Credit Risk

     Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of
credit risk consist primarily of temporary cash investments and trade
receivables. As regards the former, we place our temporary cash investments with
high credit financial institutions and limits. At times such amounts may exceed
the F.D.I.C. limits. We limit the amount of exposure with any one financial
institution and believe that no significant concentration of credit risk exists
with respect to cash investments.

     Although we are directly affected by the economic well being of significant
customers listed in the following tables, we do not believe that significant
credit risk exists at October 31, 2003. We perform ongoing evaluations of our
customers and require letters of credit or other collateral arrangements as
appropriate. Accordingly, trade receivable credit losses have not been
significant.

     The following data shows the customers accounting for more than 10% of net
consolidated receivables:

Results of Operations/Comparison of the Three and Nine Months ended October 31,
2003 and 2002.

     Net sales. Our consolidated net sales increased $1.2 million or 22% to $6.7
million for the quarter ended October 31, 2003 compared to net sales of $5.5
million for the quarter ended October 31, 2002. The August 8, 2003 acquisition
of LuxN added $2.5 million in net sales to the quarter. Excluding LuxN, net
sales declined $1.2 million compared to prior year with Sorrento Networks Inc.
("SNI"), the Company's primary operating subsidiary, down $1.4 million or 27% to
$3.8 million for the quarter ended October 31, 2003, as compared to net sales of
$5.2 million for the prior year period. This decrease is attributable to the
slow uneven pace of recovery in the telecommunications industry resulting in
reduced capital expenditures amongst our core customer base. During the nine
months ended October 31, 2003 our net sales increased to $19.1 million from
$16.7 million for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $2.4 million
or 14%. This increase reflects the $2.5 million in additional net sales of LuxN.
Net sales for our Meret subsidiary declined by $200 thousand and $500 thousand
for the quarter and nine month periods compared to prior year due to the
transfer of one of Meret's product lines to SNI. This transfer was done for
conformity of products within the two segments.

     During the three months ended October 31, 2003, product shipments to four
customers represented a combined $4.3 million or 65% of consolidated net sales.
During the quarter ended October 31, 2002, product shipments to three customers
represented a combined $3.9 million or 71% of consolidated net sales. During
the nine months ended October 31, 2003, product shipments to six customers
represented $13.4 million or 70% of consolidated net sales. For the comparable
nine months ended October 31, 2002, product shipments to four


                                       23





<PAGE>

customers represented $10.6 million or 63% of consolidated net sales. We expect
to continue experiencing significant fluctuations in our quarterly revenues as a
result of our long and variable sales cycle as well as our highly concentrated
customer base.

     Gross profit. Cost of sales consists principally of the costs of
components, subcontract assembly from outside manufacturers, and in-house system
integration, quality control, final testing and configuration costs.
Consolidated gross profit was $1.8 million, or 27%, for the quarter ended
October 31, 2003 versus $1 million, or 17%, for the prior year quarter. SNI's
gross margin for the quarter increased by 5-points from the prior year's 14%
reflecting competitive pricing pressure. Meret's 56% gross margin for the
quarter improved by 19 points from the prior year's 37% due principally to lower
overhead costs resulting from relocation and consolidation of Meret's
manufacturing. LuxN contributed $872 thousand of gross profit, at a 35% gross
margin, for the quarter.

     Consolidated gross profit for the nine months ended October 31, 2003 was
$5.2 million, or 27%, versus $150 thousand, or 1%, for the prior year period.
SNI's gross profit for the nine months was $3.6 million versus $95 thousand in
the prior year. Meret's gross profit for the nine months was $727 thousand
versus $55 thousand in the prior year. In July 2002, we adjusted the market
prices on many of our inventory components and took a write down for obsolete
and slow-moving inventories. These adjustments to SNI's and Meret's inventories
negatively impacted gross profit by $4 million. Excluding these adjustments, the
prior year gross margin would have been $4.2 million or 25%. The current year
nine-month period also includes $872 thousand of gross profit, at a 35% gross
margin, for LuxN.

     Selling and marketing. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of
employee compensation and related costs, commissions to sales representatives,
tradeshow expenses and travel expenses. Consolidated selling and marketing
expenses increased $80 thousand to $2.5 million, or 37% of net sales, for the
quarter ended October 31, 2003 from $2.4 million, or 44% of net sales, for the
prior year quarter. Excluding LuxN's $557 thousand, selling and marketing costs
were down by $477 thousand compared to the prior year. Comparative percentages
of net sales, excluding LuxN, reveal a 2-point increase from 44% last year to
46% this year reflecting our ongoing efforts to minimize operating expenses
thru tight cost controls and reduced personnel costs.

     Consolidated selling and marketing expenses of $6.5 million, or 34% of net
sales, for the nine months ended October 31, 2003 were $2.9 million lower than
the $9.5 million, or 57% of net sales, in the prior year period. This reduction
in expenses was attributable to implemented cost reductions heavily influenced
by reduced headcount and lower personnel related costs such as employee benefits
and travel. In addition, there were no LuxN expenses in the prior year period.

     Engineering, research and development. Engineering, research and
development expenses consist primarily of compensation related costs for
engineering personnel, facilities costs and materials used in the design,
development and support of our technologies. All research and development costs
are expensed as incurred. Our consolidated engineering, research and development
expenses increased to $2.5 million, or 38% of net sales, for the quarter ended
October 31, 2003, from $2 million, or 36% of net sales, for the prior year
quarter. Excluding LuxN's $1.2 million, engineering, research and development
expenses were down by $659 thousand compared to the prior year. Comparative
percentages to sales, excluding LuxN, show a 16-point decline from 36% last
year to 20% this year due primarily to reduced personnel costs.

     Consolidated engineering, research and development expenses of $5.7
million, or 30% of net sales, for the nine months ended October 31, 2003 were
$1.1 million lower than the $6.8 million, or 41% of net sales, in the prior year
period. This reduction in expenses was attributable to implemented cost
reductions heavily influenced by reduced headcount and lower personnel related
costs. In addition, there were no LuxN expenses in the prior year period.

     General and administrative. General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of employee compensation and related costs, legal and accounting fees,
public company costs and allocable occupancy costs. Consolidated general and
administrative expenses were $1.2 million in the quarter ended October 31, 2003
versus $1.6 million in the comparable prior year period. Excluding LuxN's $118
thousand, general and administrative expenses declined by $484 thousand from
the prior year due primarily to lower personnel related expense and
professional fees.

     Consolidated general and administrative expenses of $4.8 million, or 25% of
net sales, for the nine months ended October 31, 2003 were $4.6 million lower
than the $9.4 million, or 56% of net sales, in the prior year period. This
reduction in expenses primarily reflects a significantly lower level of costs
incurred in our corporate


                                       24





<PAGE>

restructuring program during the current year versus last year. In addition,
there were no LuxN expenses in the prior year period.

     Deferred stock compensation. Deferred stock compensation was $0 and $109
thousand in the quarters ended October 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. For the
nine month period ended October 31, 2003 and 2002, deferred compensation costs
were $51 thousand and $324 thousand, respectively. These costs were incurred in
connection with the grants of stock options with exercise prices determined to
be below the fair value of Sorrento's common stock on the date of grant,
Sorrento recorded deferred stock compensation of $2.6 million, which amount
was fully amortized at April 30, 2003.

     Other income (charges). Other income (charges) from operations for the
quarter ended October 31, 2003 was comprised mainly of $286 thousand interest on
the Company's 7.5% debentures while the prior year quarter was comprised mainly
of $1.7 million of costs associated with the Company's 9.75% debentures. During
the nine months ended October 31, 2003, other income (charges) was $13.8 million
compared to $182 thousand for the same period in the prior year. This increase
reflects a net gain on the capital restructuring of $13.7 million, partially
offset by $3.5 million in costs associated with the Company's 9.75% convertible
debentures and $400 thousand interest on the Company's 7.5% debentures, and a
$4 million gain on the sale of marketable securities. Prior year other income
was comprised of a gain on the sale of marketable securities of $11.7 million
partially offset by $4.3 million in costs associated with the Company's 9.75%
debentures.

     Income taxes. There was no provision for income taxes for the quarters and
nine months ended October 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. We have carry
forwards of domestic federal net operating losses, which may be available, in
part, to reduce future taxable income in the United States. These carry forwards
have been adjusted due to the capital restructuring that occurred in June 2003.
However, due to potential adjustments to the net operating loss carry forwards
as provided by the Internal Revenue Code with respect to ownership changes made
as a result of the Exchange Agreement dated June 4, 2003, future availability of
the tax benefits is not assured. In addition, we provided a valuation allowance
in full for our deferred tax assets, as it is our opinion that it is more likely
than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     We finance our operations through a combination of internal funds,
investments and debt and equity financing. At October 31, 2003, our working
capital was $10.2 million and including $4.8 million in cash and cash
equivalents and $483 thousand of investments in marketable securities.

Operations

     Our operations used cash flows of $11.9 million during the nine months
ended October 31, 2003. During the quarter ended October 31, 2002, operations
used cash flows of $10.2 million. Significant items impacting the change in cash
flows used by operations were: positive earnings versus the prior year loss, the
gain on restructuring, decrease in accounts receivable and inventory reserves,
decrease in the gain on sales of marketable securities and the decline in
deferred revenues.

     We have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations
for the past two years. Sorrento Networks, Inc., ("SNI") our principal operating
subsidiary, has primarily been the operating entity responsible for these high
losses and negative cash flows. The losses have been generated as SNI continues
to develop its technology, marketing and sales and operations in its effort to
become a major supplier of metro and regional optical networks worldwide.

     We have funded our operations primarily through a combination of internal
funds, the sale of investments and debt and equity financing. There can be no
assurance that similar funding will be available in the future. In addition, now
that our capital restructuring efforts are completed, there are certain
restrictions on us in both the amount of debt we can incur in future periods and
the types of securities that we can issue to raise additional capital in future
periods. Both of these restrictions could have a negative impact on our ability
to raise the additional working capital that we will require in future periods.
Further, with the downturn in the economic environment and decreases in capital
spending by telecom carriers, our revenue has been negatively impacted and our
future revenues could also be negatively impacted. As a result, our need for
additional working capital is crucial for future operations. We are actively
pursuing several alternatives and opportunities in order to strengthen our
financial condition. If we could successfully complete a financing transaction,
and there can be no assurance of that, we would expect to have


                                       25





<PAGE>

sufficient capital to operate our business for at least the next twelve months.
However, based upon the historical losses and negative cash flows we have
incurred in the past we estimate that we have less than six months of working
capital to finance our operations unless significant increases in revenue or
reduction in expenses are made. If such capital is not available, we will need
to substantially and immediately decrease our operating costs and capital
spending in order to fund operations. There can be no assurance that our
available cash, future funding or reduction in operating costs will be
sufficient to fund our operations in the future.

     Our standard payment terms range from net 30 to net 60 days. Receivables
from international customers have frequently taken longer to collect. In
addition, the downturn in the telecom market has impacted many of the telecom
carriers ability to purchase or pay for outstanding commitments within standard
payment terms. There can be no assurance that this continued economic
environment will not impact either current or future receivables negatively, or
our ability to control inventory levels. We do not provide long-term financing
to customers buying our equipment.

Investing Activities

     Our investing activities during the nine months ended October 31, 2003
provided cash flows of $12.0 million primarily from the sale of $6.4 million in
marketable securities, $1.9 million of net investing transactions related to the
LuxN merger and the disposal of $900 property and equipment. During the nine
months ended October 31, 2002, investing activities provided cash flows of $12.1
million primarily from $13.6 million on the sale of marketable securities offset
by purchased property and equipment of $2.8 million.

Financing Activities

     Our financing activities during the nine months ended October 31, 2003 and
2002 used cash of $181 thousand and $1.3 million, respectively, consisting
primarily of the repayment of debt. We anticipate that we will need additional
working capital to fulfill our capital working requirements for the next year.
While we have made significant cost reductions to bring our losses more in line
with our anticipated or projected revenues, there is no assurance the volume of
future revenues will be sufficient to allow us to meet our financial obligations
for future periods. We continue to reduce our operating costs and have initiated
activities to raise additional working capital. If revenues do not continue to
improve in the future and expenses are not significantly reduced, we anticipate
that we will not have sufficient working capital to finance our operations for
the next twelve months. Our future capital requirements may vary materially from
those now planned including the need for working capital to accommodate planned
growth, hiring and infrastructure needs. There can be no assurances that our
working capital requirements will not exceed our ability to generate sufficient
cash internally to support our requirements and that external financing will be
available or that, if available, such financing can be obtained on terms
favorable to us and our shareholders.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

     Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those
related to our valuation of inventory and our allowance for uncollectable
accounts receivable. We base our estimates on historical experience and on
various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under
different assumptions or conditions.

     We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more
significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated
financial statements:

          o    Revenue recognition. Revenue is generally recognized when the
               products are shipped, all substantial contractual obligations, if
               any, have been satisfied, and the collections of the resulting
               receivable is reasonably assured. When title does not pass to the
               customer at time of shipment, revenue is not recognized until all
               contractual requirements are met and title has transferred.
               During this transition period, the amount of the sale and/or
               installation is shown in deferred revenue.

               Revenue from installation is recognized as the services are
               performed to the extent of the direct costs incurred. To date,
               installation revenue has not been material. Revenue from service
               obligations, if any, is deferred and recognized over the life of
               the contract. Inventory or demonstration equipment shipped to
               potential customers for field trials is not recorded as


                                       27





<PAGE>

               revenue. We accrue for warranty costs, sales returns and other
               allowances at the time of shipment. Although our products contain
               a software component, the software is not sold separately and we
               are not contractually obligated to provide software upgrades to
               our customers.

          o    Inventory. Inventory is evaluated on a continual basis and
               management must make estimates about the future customer demand
               for our products, taking into account both the economic
               conditions and growth potential of our customers. Reserve
               adjustments are made based on management's estimate of future
               sales value, if any, of specific inventory items. Reserve
               adjustments are made for the difference between the cost of the
               inventory and the estimated market value and charged to
               operations in the period in which the facts that give rise to the
               adjustments become known. A misinterpretation or misunderstanding
               of these conditions or uncertainty in the future outlook of our
               industry or the economy, or the failure to estimate correctly,
               could result in inventory losses in excess of the provisions
               determined to be appropriate at the time of the balance sheet.

          o    Accounts receivable. Accounts receivable balances are evaluated
               on a continual basis and management regularly reviews the
               financial stability of individual customers. This analysis
               involves a judgment of the customer's current and projected
               financial condition and the positive or negative effects of the
               current and projected industry outlook, as well as that of the
               economy in general. Allowances are provided for potentially
               uncollectable accounts based on management's estimate of the
               collectability and the probability of default of customer
               accounts. If the financial condition of a customer were to
               deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make
               payments, an additional allowance may be required. Allowance
               adjustments are charged to operations in the period in which the
               facts that give rise to the adjustments become known.

          o    Intangible assets. We currently have intangible assets that
               include assets with finite lives, such as our purchased
               technology. The determination of related estimated useful lives
               and whether these assets are impaired involves judgments based
               upon short and long-term projections of future performance. We
               have no goodwill or indefinite life intangible assets. Other
               intangible assets with finite lives continue to be amortized over
               their useful lives.

          o    Legal contingencies. We are subject to proceedings, lawsuits and
               other claims, including proceedings under laws and government
               regulations related to securities, environmental, labor, product
               and other matters. We are required to assess the likelihood of
               any adverse judgments or outcomes to these matters, as well as
               potential ranges of probable losses. A determination of the
               amount of reserves required, if any, for the contingencies is
               based on a careful analysis of each individual issue with the
               assistance of outside legal counsel. Our reserves may change in
               the future due to new developments in each matter or changes in
               approach such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with
               these matters.

          o    Income taxes. We currently have no provisions for income taxes.
               We have carry forward domestic federal net operating losses,
               which may be available, in part, to reduce future taxable income
               in the United States. However, due to potential adjustments to
               the net operating loss carry forwards as provided by the Internal
               Revenue Code with respect to ownership changes made as a result
               of the Exchange Agreement dated June 4, 2003, future availability
               of the tax benefits is not assured. In addition, we provided a
               valuation allowance in full for our deferred tax assets, as it is
               our opinion that it is more likely than not that some portion or
               all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 150. "Accounting for
Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity" ("SFAS 150"). SFAS 150 clarifies the accounting for certain financial
instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity and requires
that those instruments be classified as liabilities in the balance sheets.
Previously, many of those financial instruments were classified as equity. SFAS
150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May
31, 2003 and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first


                                       28





<PAGE>

interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. We adopted this pronouncement with
no material impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

     In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of SFAS No. 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 149"). SFAS 149 amends and
clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS
No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS
133"). In particular, it (1) clarifies under what circumstances a contract with
an initial net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative as discussed
in SFAS 133, (2) clarifies when a derivative contains a financing component, (3)
amends a definition to conform it to the language used in FASB Interpretation
No. ("FIN") 45, "Guarantor Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for
Guarantees, including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others" ("FIN 45")
and (4) amends certain other existing pronouncements. SFAS 149 will be effective
for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, except as stated
below, and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The
provisions of SFAS 149 that relate to guidance in SFAS 133 Implementation Issues
that have been effective for fiscal quarters which began prior to June 15, 2003,
will continue to be applied in accordance with their respective effective dates.
In addition, certain provisions relating to forward purchases or sales of
when-issued securities or other securities that do not yet exist, will be
applied to both existing contracts as well as new contracts entered into after
June 30, 2003. We will apply the provision of SFAS 149 on a prospective basis to
contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and expect that this
pronouncement will not have a material impact on our results of operations and
financial condition.

     In November 2002, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") reached a
consensus on Issue 00-21, "Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple
Deliverables" ("EITF 00-21"). In the absence of higher level accounting
literature, EITF 00-21 governs how to separate and allocate revenue to goods or
services or both that are to be delivered in a bundled sales arrangement. EITF
00-21 applies to revenue arrangements entered into after June 30, 2003 and
allows for either prospective application or cumulative adjustment upon
adoption. We adopted this pronouncement with no material impact on our financial
position or results of operations.

Effects of Inflation and Currency Exchange Rates

     We believe that the relatively moderate rate of inflation in the United
States over the past few years has not had a significant impact on our sales or
operating results or on the prices of raw materials. There can be no assurance,
however, that inflation will not have a material adverse effect on our operating
results in the future.

     The majority of our sales and expenses are currently denominated in U.S.
dollars and to date our business has not been significantly affected by currency
fluctuations. However, we conduct business in several different countries and
thus fluctuations in currency exchange rates could cause our products to become
relatively more expensive in particular countries, leading to a reduction in
sales in that country. In addition, inflation in such countries could increase
our expenses. In the future, we may engage in foreign currency denominated sales
or pay material amounts of expenses in foreign currencies and, in such event,
may experience gains and losses due to currency fluctuations. Our operating
results could be adversely affected by such fluctuations.

Other Matters

See Part II, Item 1, "Other Information--Legal Proceedings".

Fluctuations in Revenue and Operating Results

     Sales of our products to the telecommunications industry are subject to
fluctuation and the declines and increases recently experienced by us are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results for any future periods. Our
operating results may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including
the timing of orders from, and shipments to, customers; the timing of new
product introductions and the market acceptance of those products; increased
competition; changes in manufacturing costs; availability of parts; changes in
the mix of product sales; the rate of end user adoption and carrier and private
network deployment of WAN data, video and audio communication services; factors
associated with international operations; and changes in world economic
conditions.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in interest
rates and foreign currency rates. Our exposure to interest rate risk is the
result of our need for periodic additional financing for our large operating
losses


                                       29





<PAGE>

and capital expenditures associated with establishing and expanding our
operations. The interest rate that we will be able to obtain on debt financing
will depend on market conditions at that time, and may differ from the rates we
have secured on our current debt.

     Almost all of our sales have been denominated in U.S. dollars. A portion of
our expenses are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and in the
future a larger portion of our sales could also be denominated in non-U.S.
currencies. As a result, currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the
currencies in which we do business could cause foreign currency translation
gains or losses that we would recognize in the period incurred. We cannot
predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on our future operating results
because of the number of currencies involved, the variability of currency
exposure and the potential volatility of currency exchange rates. We attempt to
minimize our currency exposure risk through working capital management and do
not hedge our exposure to translation gains and losses related to foreign
currency net asset exposures.

     We do not hold or issue derivative, derivative commodity instruments or
other financial instruments for trading purposes. Investments held for other
than trading purposes do not impose a material market risk.

     We believe that the relatively moderate rate of inflation in the United
States over the past few years and the relatively stable interest rates incurred
on short-term financing have not had a significant impact on our sales,
operating results or prices of raw materials. There can be no assurance,
however, that inflation or an upward trend in short-term interest rates will not
have a material adverse effect on our operating results in the future should we
require debt financing in the future.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Controls and Procedures

     The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) designed to ensure that it is able
to collect the information it is required to disclose in the reports it files
with the SEC, and to process, summarize and disclose this information within the
time periods specified in the rules of the SEC. These disclosure controls and
procedures are designed and maintained by or under the supervision of the
Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as required by
the rules of the SEC. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer are responsible for evaluating the effectiveness of the disclosure
controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation of the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures which took place as of the end of the period covered by
this report, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers believe that these
controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the Company is able to
collect, process and disclose the information it is required to disclose in the
reports it files with the SEC within the required time periods. During the
period covered by this report, there have been no changes in the Company's
internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.

Changes in Controls and Procedures

     There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in
other factors that could significantly affect these internal controls after the
date of our most recent evaluation.

                                     PART II
                                OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1: Legal Proceedings

     On June 4, 2003, we consummated the exchange transaction and cancelled all
outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 9.75% Senior Convertible
Debentures. The Exchange Agreement provides that the litigation instituted by
the former holders of Series A stock be dismissed without prejudice against the
Company, its subsidiaries, its current officers and directors, and other
defendants who execute an appropriate release, and without prejudice against all
other defendants. This dismissal will require court approval, which is in the
process of being obtained by counsel for all parties.

     In accordance with a settlement agreement reached between us and our former
Chairman and Founder, Par Chadha, 566,000 shares of ENI stock were transferred
to Mr. Chadha in exchange for mutual releases by the Company and Mr. Chadha and
certain of his affiliates. The stock transfer was completed on July 1, 2003 and
had a value of $88 thousand.

     In addition, claims in arbitration were filed by two of our former
financial officers and employees who worked in our Santa Monica office, which
has since been closed, alleging that their resignations in May 2002 were for
"good reason" as defined in their employment agreements, all of which were to
expire on May 22, 2002. One of the claims has was settled in May 2003 for $45
thousand. The other claim was resolved by an arbitrator in August 2003 whom
ruled in our favor.

     A former officer of our SNI subsidiary brought suit alleging breach of a
consulting agreement we entered into with him in March 2002, following his
resignation "for good reason" as defined in his employment agreement. He was
seeking acceleration of consulting fees due to him under his consulting
agreement in the amount of $229 thousand. This suit was settled on December 1,
2003 for $15 thousand and $150 thousand of Sorrento common stock that was
distributed to him June 4, 2004.

     From time to time, we are involved in various other legal proceedings and
claims incidental to the conduct of our business. Although it is impossible to
predict the outcome of any outstanding legal proceedings, we believe that such
legal proceedings and claims, individually and in the aggregate, are not likely
to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of
operations, or cash flows.

Item 2: Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds

     On August 8, 2003, we acquired LuxN for a combination of stock, warrants,
and cash previously held by LuxN. Stockholders of LuxN were given the option of
exchanging shares of LuxN stock for either their pro-rata portion of LuxN's net
cash or shares of Sorrento's common stock. In addition to the cash or common
stock, stockholders of LuxN have the right to receive warrants to purchase an
aggregate of 400 thousand shares of Sorrento common stock, with an exercise
price of $3.05 per share, the fair market value on the date of acquisition. The
warrants will be held in escrow for a period of six months to satisfy any
successful indemnification claims. At closing, Sorrento issued approximately 1.4
million shares of common stock with the remaining approximately 500 thousand
shares of common stock to be issued subject to stockholder approval.

Item 3: Defaults Upon Senior Securities

     Not Applicable

Item 4: Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
