          NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

Consolidated Condensed Interim Financial Statements

      The condensed  consolidated  unaudited interim  financial  statements have
been  prepared  pursuant  to the rules and  regulations  of the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission.  Certain information and note disclosures normally included
in the annual  financial  statements  prepared  in  accordance  with  accounting
principles  generally  accepted  in the United  States  have been  condensed  or
omitted pursuant to those rules and  regulations,  although the Company believes
the  disclosures  made  are  adequate  to make  the  information  presented  not
misleading.  In the opinion of management,  all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation have been included in the condensed  financial  statements  herein.
The results of  operations  for the quarter and the nine months ending March 31,
2001 are not  necessarily  indicative  of the results for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 2001. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction  with the notes to the financial  statements and in conjunction with
the Company's  audited  financial  statements  contained in its Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 2000.  The  accounting  policies used to
prepare the condensed  financial  statements are consistent with those described
in the June 30, 2000 financial statements. The sale of the Company's services is
subject to general economic conditions.  The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
requires  management to make estimates and assumptions  that affect the reported
amounts of revenue and expenses  during the  reporting  period.  Actual  results
could differ from these estimates.

RESTATEMENT

      The Company has restated the condensed  consolidated  financial statements
for  the  three-month   and  nine-month   periods  ended  March  31,  2000.  The
presentation restated condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent
with the presentation in the Company's  financial  statements for the year ended
June 30, 2000 filed on Form 10-KSB.The restated condensed consolidated financial
statements  reflect  reductions  of payroll  expense  related to  correction  of
accounting  treatment  of various  items  included  in the  employee  employment
contracts.  The effect of the restatement caused a reduction in net loss for the
nine-month  period ended March 31, 2000 from $6,752,404 ($0.97 per common share)
to $4,532,670  ($0.86 per common share).  The affect of the  restatement was not
material to the three months period ended March 31, 2000.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      Global Sources Limited and its wholly-owned  subsidiaries  (the "Company")
provide  strategic  staffing  solutions in addition to  marketing,  training and
development programs, seminars, and employee benefits.

      The Company was formerly known as First Sunrise, Inc., a company organized
under the State of Delaware on April 28, 1997. First Sunrise, Inc. was organized
as a vehicle to acquire or merge with a business  or  company.  On  December  9,
1999,  First Sunrise,  Inc. merged with Platinum  Executive  Services,  Inc. For
accounting  purposes,  Platinum  Executive  Services,  Inc.  was  treated as the
acquirer and the  acquisition  was  accounted  for using the purchase  method of
accounting.  On the same date,  the  merged  entity  changed  its name to Global
Sources Limited. The Company has offices in New York and New Jersey.

      As shown in the accompanying financial statements,  the Company incurred a
net loss of $1,654,709  during the nine months ended March 31, 2001. As of March
31, 2001 the current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $1,328,287.  The
Company is delinquent in connection with various obligations.  These factors, as
well as the  uncertain  conditions  that the Company  faces with  respect to its
ability to pay its debts, as they become due, create substantial doubt as to the
Company's  ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial  statements do
not include any adjustments  that might be necessary if the Company is unable to
continue as a going concern.  The continuation of the Company as a going concern
is dependent upon the success of future  financings  and  generating  sufficient
revenue.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                          Page 8
<PAGE>

      Management  is  formulating  plans to  strengthen  the  Company's  working
capital  position and to generate  sufficient  cash to meet its operating  needs
through  June 30, 2001 and beyond.  The  Company  has sold  1,810,000  shares of
common stock, and 400,000 shares of redeemable common stock, for aggregate gross
proceeds of approximately $975,000 during the period ended March 31, 2001 and is
attempting  to secure  additional  capital  through  the  private  placement  of
securities.  No  assurance,  however,  can  be  made  that  management  will  be
successful  in  achieving  its plans.  Significant  additional  capital  will be
required.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

RECLASSIFICATION

      Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years amounts to conform
to the March 31, 2001 presentation.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

      The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts of Global
Sources  Limited  and  its  subsidiaries   after  elimination  of  inter-company
transactions.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

      Revenue from permanent  staffing is recognized when the candidate has been
employed for a minimum period pursuant to the search agreement. Executive search
and consulting  assignments are primarily based upon retainer  agreements  which
provide for periodic billings; revenue is recognized based upon the terms of the
agreements.

PROPERTY & EQUIPMENT

      Property  and  equipment  are  stated at cost.  Depreciation  is  computed
utilizing  the  straight-line  method over the useful  lives of the assets which
range from three to seven years.

INCOME TAXES

      The Company  accounts for income taxes in accordance with the Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 109,  "Accounting  for Income Taxes," which
requires the  recognition  of deferred tax  liabilities  and assets at currently
enacted tax rates for the expected  future tax  consequences of events that have
been included in the financial  statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance
is  recognized  to reduce the net  deferred  tax asset to an amount that is more
likely than not to be realized.  The tax  provisions  shown in the  accompanying
statements of operations  are zero since the deferred tax assets  generated from
the net operating losses are offset in their entirety by a valuation allowance.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

      Cash  and  cash  equivalents,  if any,  include  all  highly  liquid  debt
instruments  with an original  maturity  of three  months or less at the date of
purchase.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                          Page 9


<PAGE>


GOODWILL

      Goodwill is amortized utilizing the straight-line  method over a period of
3  to 5  years.  The  Company  evaluates  the  carrying  value  and  periods  of
amortization  of goodwill to  determine  whether  revised  estimates of carrying
value or  useful  lives  are  warranted.  As  described  in Note 3, the  Company
recorded a charge of $645,000 for the impairment of goodwill.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

      Long-lived  assets are reviewed for impairment  whenever events or changes
in  circumstances  indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.  If
the sum of the expected  undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value
of the related asset or group of assets, a loss is recognized for the difference
between fair value and carrying value of the asset or group of assets.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

      During the period ended March 31, 2001, the Company  adopted SFAS No. 133.
SFAS No. 133  establishes  accounting  and reporting  standards  for  derivative
instruments,   including  certain  derivative   instruments  embedded  in  other
contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives), and for hedging activities.
This  Statement  requires  that an entity  recognize all  derivatives  as either
assets or liabilities in its balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair
value.  The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative  instrument
depends on its intended use and the  resulting  designation.  Implementation  of
SFAS 133 did not have any material  impact on the  financial  statements  of the
Company.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

      Cash  and cash  equivalents  and  trade  accounts  receivable  potentially
subject the Company to concentration of credit risk. The Company places its cash
and cash  equivalents  with high  credit  quality  financial  institutions.  The
Company believes its credit risk from accounts  receivable is limited due to the
relatively  large  number  of  customers.  Further,  the  Company  assesses  the
financial  strength  of its  customers  and  when  appropriate,  establishes  an
allowance for uncollectible accounts.

NOTE 3 - ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION OF BUSINESS

      On July 21, 2000, the Company  acquired all of the  outstanding  shares of
Phillips and Chambers,  Ltd. In exchange for  1,363,633  shares of the Company's
common  stock.  The  value of the  acquisition  is being  recorded  at  $645,000
(approximately  $.47 per common share),  which  represents the fair value of the
shares at the date of issuance.  The Company incurred an additional  $200,000 in
costs related to this acquisition. In October, 2000, the Company became aware of
the fact that Phillips and Chambers,  Ltd. incurred significant losses since the
date  of the  acquisition.  In  addition,  the  Company  determined  that  their
investment  in Phillips  and  Chambers  would not generate any future cash flows
and, therefore, recorded an impairment loss of $645,000.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                         Page 10

      In February,  2001, the Company  decided to dispose of this investment and
has recorded an  additional  $200,000 of expenses  related to such  disposition.
Such amount was recorded in the three month period ended September 30, 2000. The
Company did not  consolidate,  or include,  the  operations  of is entity  since
control was  temporary  and the  Company did not  integrate  the  operations  of
Phillips and Chambers into its operations.

      In December,  1999 and January 2000,  the Company  acquired four different
entities,  in the same line of business as the Company,  through the issuance of
shares of common and preferred stock. All of the acquisitions were accounted for
as purchases and have been included in the Company's  operations  from the dates
of their respective purchases.  The amortization of goodwill for the nine months
ended March 31, 2000 was $156,000.  The pro-forma unaudited condensed results of
operations  data for the nine months ended,  as if the purchases had occurred on
July 1, 1999, is as follows:

NOTE 4 - NOTES PAYABLE BANK

      The  Company  issued a note  payable to a bank in the  original  principal
amount of $250,000 on February 15, 2000. The unpaid balance at March 31, 2001 is
$175,000.  Repayment on the note is guaranteed personally by two officers of the
Company.  In February,  2001, the bank obtained judgment against the Company for
non-payment of the note, whereupon the Company and the bank reached an agreement
in principal for repayment of the debt, as follows: (i) $10,000 payment on April
1, 2001; and (ii) for eleven  consecutive  months beginning April, 2001, payment
of $8,152 per month with a balloon  payment  becoming  due in March 2002 for the
remaining  outstanding  balance. The total amount to be paid to the lender under
the restructuring agreement is $195,642 plus interest at 9%.

      On July 16, 1999, the Company issued an note payable with a different bank
in the original principal amount of $200,000.  Payment on the note is guaranteed
personally by two officers of the Company.  On May 29, 2001,  the bank filed for
payment of loans totaling $200,000 plus interest, late fees, attorney's fees and
costs. The Company is presently  negotiating with the Bank to satisfy its demand
and claim.

NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      Pursuant to an agreement dated June 30, 2000,  employment contracts of the
Company's  two  principal  officers  were amended to provide that they would not
receive  compensation for the year ended June 30, 2001. The Company has recorded
the deemed fair value,  $150,000, of the services rendered by these individuals,
in the nine month period ended March 31, 2001 as a contribution to capital.

      The officers  also agreed to waive the payment of certain  salary  amounts
due for the year ended June 30, 2000. These amounts,  $2,108,869, have also been
recorded as a contribution to capital.

NOTE 6 - ADVANCES FROM COMPANY OFFICERS

      These  amounts  constitute  advances  from  the  Company's  two  principal
officers, which advances are represented by non-interest bearing notes having no
definite maturity date.

NOTE 7 - REDEEMABLE COMMON STOCK

      On July 12, 2000, the Company  received  $195,000 in net proceeds from the
issuance to an individual  investor of 400,000  shares of the  Company's  common
stock pursuant to a private transaction. Under the terms of the transaction, the
investor is entitled, at its sole option, to demand redemption from the Company,
in the form of a cash  payment  of $0.75 per share of the  common  stock that is
demanded to be redeemed,  in the event that the Company  should  default  (which
default is continuing for more than thirty (30) days) on any of its  obligations
under any of the transaction  documents.  The Company is currently in default of
its covenant to register the common  stock  issued to such  investor.  As of the
date of this report, the individual has exercised its right to demand redemption
by the  Company of the shares but has taken no further  action.  The Company has
recorded  such common  stock at its  liquidation  value of $ .75 per share,  and
classified such common stock as temporary equity,  since the investor can demand
redemption at any time. The Company recorded the difference  between the selling
price of the common  stock and its  redemption  price of  $105,000 as an imputed
non-cash common stock dividend. Payment of any amount owed, pursuant to a demand
redemption, is guaranteed by the Company's two principal officers.

NOTE 8 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

      On August 14, 2000, the Company issued to an individual  investor pursuant
to a private transaction  500,000 shares of the Company's common stock,  subject
to a keepwell arrangement at $.75 per common share, and a warrant to purchase up
to 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock, exercisable at a price of $1.50
per share.  The  consideration  paid by such individual  investor was based on a
price  per  share  of $.50  and  made in the  form  of  cash of  $100,000  and a
promissory  note in the principle  amount of $150,000,  payable in equal monthly
installments over three (3) months. The Company had the option to repurchase the
shares and to reduce the number of shares  issuable upon exercise of the warrant
in the event that investor failed timely to pay in full the note. No such option
was  exercised  and the Note was  paid in full.  Based on the fair  value of the
common  stock at March 31,  2001  ($0.875  per share) no  additional  shares are
issueable to this investor.

      During  August 2000 and  September  2000  following  the  commencement  of
trading of its common stock on the OTC  Bulletin  Board,  the Company  issued to
individual  investors  an aggregate of 345,000  shares of the  Company's  common
stock pursuant to a private offering.  The consideration paid by such individual
investors was based on a price per share of $.50, for a total offering amount of
$172,500.

      On  September  1,  2000,  the  Company  issued to an  individual  investor
pursuant to a private  transaction  750,000 shares of the Company's common stock
and warrants to purchase up to 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The
consideration paid by such individual investor totaled $250,000, in cash.

      During  September  and  October  2000,  the Company  issued to  individual
investors an aggregate of 215,000 shares of the Company's  common stock pursuant
to a private offering.  The consideration paid by such individual  investors was
based on a price per share of $0.50, for a total offering amount of $107,500.

<PAGE>


      The Company  incurred  approximately  $98,000 of  expenses  related to the
sales of common stock.

      On October 1, 2000,  the Company  issued as aggregate of 165,000 shares of
the  Company's  common  stock  to  two  (2)  employees  of  the  Company  and an
independent  contractor  for  services  performed  by each.  These  shares  were
cancelled  shortly after issuance by the Company since the  individuals  did not
remain in the employ of the  Company.  Therefore,  the  Company  reversed in the
three month period ended  December 31, 2000,  the expense of $50,000,  which was
previously recorded in that three month period.

NOTE 9 - STOCK OPTION PLAN

      The  Company's  1999  Stock  Option  Plan  provides  for the  granting  of
incentive  stock  options,  non-qualified  stock options and stock  appreciation
rights.  It is administered  by the Company's Board of Directors.  The aggregate
number of shares of common stock which may be issued or delivered  upon exercise
of all incentive  stock options and  non-qualified  stock options granted cannot
exceed 5,000,000 shares.  Option prices for incentive stock options shall not be
less than 100% and for non-qualified stock options not less than 85% of the fair
market  value of such shares on the date on which the option is  granted.  As of
March 31, 2001, there were 2,685,000 options outstanding.

NOTE 10 - CONTINGENCIES

LITIGATION

      On November 30, 2000 Gordon Cook ("Cook")  filed a complaint in the United
States District Court for the Southern  District of New York against the Company
and others,  alleging damages arising from the termination of Cook's  employment
by the Defendants.  The complaint  alleges  violation of the New York Labor Law,
breach of  contract,  breach of the  covenant  of good  faith and fair  dealing,
violation of the Employee  Retirement  Income Security Act (ERISA),  conversion,
and the theories of quasi-contract,  quantum meruit, and unjust enrichment. Cook
seeks damages in the amount of  approximately  $155,000 for unpaid wages,  bonus
and severance  pay. In addition,  Cook seeks the value of  approximately  75,000
stock options  exercisable  at $2.00 per share and 2,500 options  exercisable at
$.30 per share.  On February 13, 2001,  the Company filed its answer  whereby it
denied all claims.  Management  believes  that the Company has good defenses and
intends to  vigorously  contest the claims  asserted  against it.  However,  the
Company is unable to predict the outcome of these  claims and,  accordingly,  no
adjustments have been made in the consolidated  financial statements in response
to these claims.

      On November 22, 2000, Stuart P. Smith and ASOT Enterprises,  Inc. ("ASOT")
filed a complaint against the Company, each of John Mazzuto and James J. Strupp,
individually,  and others,  in the Circuit Court of the 11th Judicial Circuit in
and for Miami-Dade County,  Florida. The complaint alleges,  among other things,
that the Company  has failed and  refuses to register  shares and options on the
books and records of the Company and has breached its contractual obligations to
Mr. Smith pursuant to a personal services  agreement with ASOT.  Alleged damages
claimed are in the approximate  amount of $277,000,  including the balance owing
under an alleged loan from Mr. Smith to the Company in the sum of $125,000.  The
complaint also seeks to register  options and shares  allegedly on the books and
records of the  Company.  On January 30,  2001,  the  Company  filed a motion to
dismiss the action for lack of jurisdiction  and, in the alternative,  to change
of venue from the State of Florida  to the State of  Delaware,  the state of the
Company's  incorporation,  which motions are still pending.  Management believes
that the Company has good defenses and intends to vigorously  contest the claims
asserted  against it.  However,  the Company is unable to predict the outcome of
these claims and, accordingly, no adjustments have been made in the consolidated
financial statements in response to these claims.


      Dominique  Martinet  ("Martinet")  filed a summons  and  complaint  in the
Supreme Court of the State of New York in July, 2000 against the Company and its
subsidiary,  GS Management Corp.,  alleging that Martinet is owed  approximately
$592,000 for unpaid  wages,  bonus,  benefits and stock  options,  plus punitive
damages.  An order was  entered by the court on default on January  17, 2001 for
the appointment of a Special Referee for assessment of damages.  Hearings before
the Special  Referee  were held and the parties  were  invited to brief  certain
matters relating to the calculation of damages.  On May 18, 2001, a judgement in
the amount of

                                                                         Page 13

<PAGE>


$262,485.57  plus  approximately  $53,000 in  interest,  plus costs was  entered
against the Comany.  Management intends to appeal such judgement. No adjustments
have been made in the  consolidated  financial  statements  in  response to this
judgement.


      On or about January 4, 2000,  plaintiffs  Frank R. Palma  ("Palma"),  City
Brewing,  Inc. and the Company  commenced an action in the Superior Court of New
Jersey,  Law Division:  Morris County (Docket No.  L14-2000)  against Goodrich &
Sherwood  Associates,  Inc. et al. On or about March 23,  2000,  the  defendants
interposed an Answer with counterclaims.  The complaint and counterclaims relate
to the  circumstances  surrounding  Palma's  separation from Goodrich & Sherwood
Associates, Inc., a competitor of the Company in the business of human resources
counseling,  and  Palma's  subsequent  employment  by the  Company  and  contain
allegations of inducement, breach of contract, tortious interference,  breach of
fiduciary  duty and implied  covenant of good faith and fair dealings as well as
unfair competition, unjust enrichment and fraud. Damages sought are in excess of
$1,000,000.  On January 16, 2001,  the Company  plaintiffs  filed a Reply to the
counterclaims,  denying the material allegations.  On or about November 3, 2000,
defendants  also  commenced an action as  third-party  plaintiffs  against James
Strupp and John Mazzuto, personally,  alleging claims against Messrs. Strupp and
Mazzuto  arising  out of the same set of  circumstances  and  seeking to recover
damages in excess of $1,000,000.  On December 7, 2000,  Strupp and Mazzuto filed
an Answer denying the material allegations of the third-party  complaint.  On or
about May 7,  2001,  Palma  asserted  a cross  claim  against  the  Company  for
indemnification  from and against any liabilities and damages incurred by him as
a result of defendants' claims. By Answer to the Cross Claim filed May 10, 2001,
the Company denied Palma's right to  indemnification.  A trial date has been set
for June 26, 2001.  Management  believes  that the Company has good defenses and
intends to  vigorously  contest the claims  asserted  against it.  However,  the
Company is unable to predict the outcome of this  matter  and,  accordingly,  no
adjustments have been made in the consolidated  financial statements in response
to this matter.

      On January 11, 2001, the Company was notified by the New Jersey Department
of Labor,  Division of Wage and Hour Compliance,  that is has allegedly violated
that  state's  minimum wage and wage  payment  statutes.  To the extent that the
amount of the claim can be  ascertained,  it appears that the Company is alleged
to owe employees  approximately $42,364. The claim is presently pending, and the
Company has been ordered to perform a self-audit  and pay wages found to be due.
Management  believes that is has good defenses to any wage claims and intends to
defend  vigorously any such claim asserted  against it. However,  the Company is
unable to predict the  outcome of this claim and,  accordingly,  no  adjustments
have been made in the  consolidated  financial  statements  in response to these
claims.

      The  Company  is a party to other  proceedings  which,  in the  opinion of
management  of the  Company,  are not  material  to the  financial  position  or
operations of the Company.

PAYROLL AND PAYROLL TAXES

      On  November  15,  2000,  a Notice  of  Federal  Tax Lien was filed by the
Internal  Revenue Service ("IRS") against a subsidiary of the Company for unpaid
federal withholding taxes in the aggregate amount of $93,243, of which payments,
in the aggregate sum of $25,000,  have been made by the Company to the IRS since
November  2000.  In addition,  the Company has not paid payroll  taxes since the
fourth  quarter of 1999  totaling  $477,  122 (which  includes  the above amount
subject to lien).  Such  amount is  included  in  accounts  payable  and accrued
expenses.  The  Company  is in process of filing  all  unfiled  returns  and has
accrued penalties and interest of $100,000.

      By letter dated August 21, 2000,  the  Department of Revenue  Services for
the State of Connecticut  alleged a subsidiary of the Company had failed to file
with the State of  Connecticut  withholding  tax returns and to pay  withholding
taxes in the amount of approximately $48,414.

OTHER

      Pursuant to an employment  agreement and  acquisition  agreements  entered
into, the Company issued common stock to various individuals.  Such common stock
issued is subject to keepwell guarantees. The total number of shares issuable at
March 31,  2001 based on the deemed  fair value  ($.875) of the common  stock is
1,125,000 shares.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

      This financial  review should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
consolidated  financial  statements  and contains  management's  discussion  and
analysis of the Company's results of operations and liquidity.

      The  Company  at  present  provides   strategic   staffing   solutions  to
enterprises  in  addition  to  providing  marketing,  training  and  development
programs,  seminars,  and employee  benefits.  The Company was formerly known as
First Sunrise,  Inc., a company  organized  under the State of Delaware on April
28, 1997.  First  Sunrise,  Inc. was  organized as a vehicle to acquire or merge
with a business or company. On December 9, 1999, First Sunrise, Inc. merged with
Platinum Executive Services,  Inc. For accounting  purposes,  Platinum Executive
Services, Inc. was treated as the acquirer and the acquisition was accounted for
using the purchase  method of  accounting.  On the same date,  the merged entity
changed its name to Global Sources Limited.

      In July,  2000,  the  Company  acquired a company  in the United  Kingdom.
During the third fiscal quarter,  management decided to focus on and growing its
business  holdings in the United States markets and, as a result,  the operating
assets of the company in the United Kingdom are being liquidated.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      The Company showed a significant  improvement in the results of operations
in the nine months and three months  ending  March 31, 2001.  As a result of its
cost  cutting   efforts  and  the   disposition  of  operations  that  were  not
contributing  to  gross  profits,   the  Company  showed  improvements  in  both
operations and cash flow. The  improvement  in operations  was  attributable  to
reduced costs, including payroll and professional and administrative expenses.

      Revenues  for the 9 months  ended March 31,  2001 showed an increase  from
approximately  $904,000 to  $953,000.  Increases  in revenue  were driven by the
company's acquisitions during the fiscal year 2000 which was partially offset by
dispositions  during the same period. For the three month period ended March 31,
2001,  revenues  declined  from  approximately  $702,000 to $267,000  due to the
change in the composition of the Company's subsidiary business.

      Operating  loss for the nine month  period  declined  to  $1,620,000  from
$4,532,000  and for the three  month  period  from  $1,837,000  to $179,000 as a
result of reduced non cash compensation  expenses and the reduction in corporate
overhead. Operating expense reductions was also attributed to a decline in legal
expenses.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                         Page 15
<PAGE>

      Because  the  Company  has  insufficient  capital  to fund its  merger and
acquisition  program and expenses  associated  with the legal  proceedings,  the
Company must raise additional funds in both the short and long term.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      To date the Company has funded its liquidity and capital  resources  needs
primarily  through capital  contributions  from key executives,  supplemented by
loans  and  the  sale  of  the  Company's   capital  stock.   The  Company  sold
approximately $780,000 of common stock, and $195,000 of redeemable common stock,
in the private  placement  market for the nine  months  ending  March 31,  2001.
During the quarter  ended  March 31,  2001,  officers  of the  Company  advanced
approximately  $200,000 to the Company. The Company intends to secure additional
capital through private placement of its securities and other financings to fund
itself and its acquisition  program.  There is no assurance that such funds will
be available on terms or in quantity  acceptable  to the Company.  The foregoing
capital is not  sufficient  to fund the expenses  associated  with the Company's
merger and acquisition program.

      As shown in the accompanying  financial  statements the Company recorded a
loss of $191,175 and $1,654,709 for the three and nine month periods ended March
31, 2001. At the end of the quarter the Company's current  liabilities  exceeded
its current assets by approximately  $1,328,000 which is a significant reduction
from the working  capital  deficit of $2,224,222  recorded at June 30, 2000. The
principal use of capital during the period was to reduce liabilities.

      The Company plans to purchase  additional  companies that have a strategic
fit  with the  Company's  goal of  becoming  a  premier  provider  of  strategic
solutions in the human  resources  fields.  Acquisitions  will be made primarily
through the issuance of common and preferred  stock.  It is intended that future
acquisitions will not be with development  stage or start-up  companies in order
to maximize cash flows to the Company.
