                                EXPLANATORY NOTE

      We are filing this Form 10-QSB/A to amend and restate the information
disclosed in Items 1 and 2 of Part I of the Form 10-QSB filed on August 13,
2002. The principal change was to revise the statement of operations to reflect
non-cash stock compensation expense resulting from an extension of the exercise
period for warrants and options granted to a former officer and our current
Chief Scientist and to recognize non-cash stock compensation expense for options
granted to non-employees.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The accompanying unaudited financial statements are presented in
      accordance with the requirements for Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of
      Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all the disclosures
      normally required by generally accepted accounting principles. Reference
      should be made to the ANTs software inc. (the "Company") Form 10-KSB for
      the twelve months ended December 31, 2001, for additional disclosures
      including a summary of the Company's accounting policies, which have not
      significantly changed.

      The information furnished reflects all adjustments (all of which were of a
      normal recurring nature), which, in the opinion of management, are
      necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations,
      and cash flows on a consistent basis. Operating results for the three
      months and six months ended June 30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative
      of the results that may be expected in the future.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Basic Net Loss Per Share - Basic net loss per share is calculated using
      the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the
      period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average
      number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during
      the period.

      The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net loss
      per share:

      As of June 30, 2002 outstanding options and warrants for the purchase of
      up to 8,261,308 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.25 to
      $11.63 were anti-dilutive, and therefore, not included in the computation
      of diluted loss per share.

3.    EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

      From April 1, 2002 through June 30, 2002, we sold to accredited investors,
      through a private offering, (i) 1,126,008 A Units, at a price of $0.75 per
      unit (the "A Units"), with each A Unit consisting of (i) One (1) share of
      Common Stock of the Company, and (ii) a warrant to purchase up to One (1)
      share of Common Stock of the Company at a per share price of One Dollar
      ($1.00), exercisable until December 31, 2002, and (ii) 46,666 B Units, at
      a price of $0.75 per unit (the "B Units"), with each B Unit consisting of
      (i) One (1) share of Common Stock of the Company, and (ii) a warrant to
      purchase up to One (1) share of Common Stock of the Company at a per share
      price of One Dollar ($1.00), exercisable until June 30, 2003. In
      connection with this offering, we paid $31,000 and issued 20,668 A Units
      in commissions and finder's fees. In addition, 24,998 A Units were issued
      in commissions related to offerings in the first quarter of 2002. As of
      June 30, 2002, all A Units were issued. The gross proceeds of the offering
      were $879,505. As of June 30, 2002, of the 1,172,674 A and B Units sold
      during the second quarter of 2002, there was a combination of 122,679 A
      and B Units subscribed but not yet issued. The proceeds will be used for
      general working capital purposes.

      On or about March 11, 2002 and March 14, 2002 we sold to an accredited
      investor, through a private offering, two convertible promissory notes
      without interest in aggregate principal face amount of $200,000,


                                       6
<PAGE>

      convertible at the option of the holder into B Units at a conversion price
      of $0.75 per B Unit. On or about June 25, 2002, the investor converted
      both promissory notes into an aggregate of 266,666 B Units. The proceeds
      were used for general working capital purposes.

      In January 2001, the British Columbia Securities Commission requested
      information regarding the distribution of securities to British Columbia
      residents to ensure that such distributions were made in compliance with
      the British Columbia Securities Act. In April 2001, we received $125,000,
      for the exercise of a warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock,
      from a former employee who we believed was a Canadian resident. Due to the
      pending inquiry we did not issue the shares to the former employee. Since
      April 2001, the $125,000 had been recorded as a current liability. These
      shares were issued during the first quarter of 2002 when it was determined
      that the former employee was not a Canadian resident and the amount was
      reclassified as capital.

      We agreed to extend the period during which a former officer could
      exercise two options to purchase a total of 220,000 shares of our common
      stock and we agreed to extend the period during which our current Chief
      Scientist could exercise a warrant to purchase 400,000 shares of common
      stock. A non-cash R&D expense totaling $525,635 was recognized during the
      first quarter of 2002.

      During the second quarter of 2002, a current employee exercised a warrant
      to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock for the aggregate amount of
      $25,000. During the first quarter of 2002, the following equity
      transactions occurred: a former employee exercised an option to purchase
      600 shares of common stock for the aggregate amount of $1,200; a former
      consultant exercised an option to purchase 15,000 shares of common stock
      and paid the exercise price in services rendered during the first quarter
      of 2002; and 3,333 shares were issued in connection with a fourth quarter
      2001 private placement.

      During the second quarter of 2002, stock options were granted to
      non-employees in exchange for services previously rendered and a non-cash
      compensation expense of $493,611 was recognized.

4.    WARRANTS AND STOCK OPTIONS

      As of June 30, 2002, the Company had outstanding warrants to purchase up
      to 4,845,931 shares of common stock and options to purchase up to
      3,415,377 shares of common stock. These securities give the holder the
      right to purchase shares of the Company's common stock in accordance with
      the terms of the instrument.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATION

      Certain statements contained in this Form 10-QSB constitute
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended. Such forward-looking statements herein are based on current
expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such
forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company will have
adequate financial resources to fund the development and operation of its
business, and there will be no material adverse change in the Company's
operations or business. The foregoing assumptions are based on judgments with
respect to, among other things, information available to the Company, future
economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions. All
are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond
the Company's control. Accordingly, although the Company believes that the
assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any such
assumption could prove to be inaccurate and therefore there can be no assurance
that the results contemplated in the forward-looking statements will be
realized. There are a number of risks presented by the Company's business and
operations, which could cause the Company's financial performance to vary
markedly from prior results, or results contemplated by the forward-looking
statements. Such risks include failure of the ANTs technology to work properly,
failure to develop commercially viable products or services from the ANTs
technology, delays or failure in fundraising efforts, delays in or lack of
market acceptance, failures to recruit adequate personnel, and problems with
protection of intellectual property, among others. Management decisions,
including budgeting, are subjective in many respects and periodic revisions must
be made to reflect actual conditions and business developments, the impact of
which may cause the Company to alter its capital investment and other
expenditures, which may also adversely affect the Company's results of
operations. In light of significant uncertainties inherent in forward-looking
information included in this quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB, the inclusion of
such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company that
the Company's objectives or plans will be achieved. The Company undertakes no
obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these
forward-looking statements.

Overview

      We are engaged in the development and marketing of a proprietary software
technology that is intended to significantly improve the speed at which
computers can manipulate data.

Plan of Operation

      We anticipate that, if we are sufficiently funded, over the next six
months our focus will be threefold: continued development of our technology,
marketing our technology, and supporting customers. The development effort will
be focused on enhancing our technology and thereafter will be directed towards
developing initial customer applications utilizing our technology. General
commercial applications utilizing our technology are expected to be available by
the end of calendar 2002. There is no assurance that our plans will be realized.

      The majority of our operating expenses and costs over the next six months
are expected to be for and in connection with existing and additional personnel
and equipment. We currently have eleven full-time employees, two part-time
employees and two consultants. We view the recruitment of additional qualified
technical personnel as essential to the further development and
commercialization of our proprietary technologies. If we are sufficiently funded
and we are successful in our recruitment efforts, we expect that our personnel
and other operating costs will increase over current levels.

      We believe that due to a poor investment climate, securing additional
sources of financing which would enable us to complete the development and
commercialization of our proprietary technologies will be difficult, and there
is no assurance of our ability to secure such financing.

Technology Development

      Over the next six months we intend to continue to improve and add
functionality both to the ANTs Concurrency Engine (ACE) and to the ANTs Data
Server (ADS), assuming we are sufficiently funded. We are


                                       8
<PAGE>

actively engaging prospective partners and customers in technical discussions to
determine what features are and will be most in demand for the markets we are
targeting. We intend to then mobilize our engineering resources around
developing those features. Once we are successful in developing partner or
customer relationships, we anticipate that the specific needs of the partner or
customer will drive the development of ACE and ADS functionality.

Marketing

      Our product offering is comprised of two components, the core technology,
ACE, which represents our intellectual property and ADS, a relational database
which is the first implementation of ACE. ACE can be used as the engine for any
application that manipulates data. ADS can be applied to certain segments of the
database market. Target markets include: application server, wireless messaging,
high-end on-line transaction processing (OLTP) and storage. Our go-to-market
strategy includes potential OEM and co-marketing partnerships with leading
vendors in each market and limited sales directly to customers.

General and Administrative

      General and administrative expenses decreased from $941,268 during the
three months ended June 30, 2001 to $856,595 for the three months ended June 30,
2002. Of the $856,595 expensed during the three months ended June 30, 2002,
$430,361 was a non-cash expense related to option grants to non-employees.
General and administrative expenses decreased from $2,503,222 during the six
months ended June 30, 2001 to $1,449,906 for the six months ended June 30, 2002.
Components of general and administrative expense for the six months ended June
30, 2002 include: salaries and benefits (20%), legal (12%), other professional
services (51%) and other expenses (17%). We expect that if we are sufficiently
funded, general and administrative expenses will increase moderately over the
next six months.

Research and Development

      Research and development expenses increased from $277,297 during the three
months ended June 30, 2001 to $402,005 for the three months ended June 30, 2002.
Research and development expenses increased from $636,756 during the six months
ended June 30, 2001 to $1,380,908 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. These
expenses are related to the research, testing and product development of our
proprietary software. Of the $1,380,908 expensed through June 30, 2002, $525,635
was a non-cash expense related to the extension of certain options and warrants
granted to a former officer and our current Chief Scientist. Salaries and
benefits accounted for 86% and other expenses accounted for 14% of the total for
the six months ended June 30, 2002. We expect that if we are sufficiently
funded, our research and development expenses will increase moderately as
additional staff is recruited.

Personnel

      On July 31, 2002 two employees (one full-time, one part-time) left the
company for personal reasons, and three employees and one contractor were laid
off. Additionally, remaining employees took pay cuts ranging from 50-80%. We
currently have eleven full-time employees, two part-time employees and two
full-time consultants.

Capital and Liquidity Resources

      We anticipate that if we are sufficiently funded, we will increase
expenditures over the coming months as we continue to develop our technology and
begin supporting customers. We expect to begin realizing revenues during
calendar year 2002. Our cash balance as of June 30, 2002 was $568,019, which,
when added to investments received since then, we believe will be adequate to
fund our activities through September 2002 at our current rate of spending.
There can be no assurance that our continued product development and
infrastructure development will not require a much higher rate of spending.
There can also be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional capital
on acceptable terms.

      To carry out our plan of operation, we anticipate that over the next six
months we will require approximately $1-2 million. We will pursue a number of
avenues to raise these operating funds: 1) in the past we


                                       9
<PAGE>

have been successful raising funds through a series of private placements of our
stock, we anticipate that we will continue to raise funds through private
placements, 2) as we develop close relationships with large partners, we will
pursue strategic investments from those partners, and 3) this year we expect to
begin generating revenue, which will be a source of operating funds if we are
successful. We are pursuing all three avenues, however, we believe, that due to
a poor investment climate, securing additional investment will be difficult.

                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      We were defendants in a case entitled Hubert P. Lauffs v. Mosaic Multisoft
Corporation, in which the plaintiff asserted a cause of action against us for
breach of fiduciary duty. The plaintiff purported to base his cause of action on
allegations that we and others caused the shareholders of Mosaic Multisoft
Corporation ("Mosaic") to elect outside directors to its board of directors who
subsequently voted to remove Mosaic's president from office, thus interfering
with Mosaic's ability to raise capital and causing Mosaic to be unable to repay
its debt to the plaintiff. In March 2000, we won this case on summary judgment.
In April 2000, the plaintiff filed an appeal of the summary judgment ruling. On
November 21, 2001, the Fourth District Court of Appeal ruled in our favor by
affirming the Superior Court's March 2000 summary judgment. Lauffs' time to
petition for hearing in the California Supreme Court has expired, and no further
review is now possible. In September 1999, we had filed an action for malicious
prosecution against the lawyer and the plaintiff in this case. Since May 4,
2000, the malicious prosecution action had been stayed pending resolution of the
appeal. On January 3, 2002, the stay was lifted. We are pursuing recovery of our
legal fees incurred in connection with the proceedings.

      On October 12, 2001, a class action complaint, titled Joseph Chatham v.
ANTs Software.com, et al., was filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court
against us and certain of our former officers and former directors. The
plaintiff claims to be suing on behalf of a class of persons who purchased the
Company's stock from October 5, 1999, through March 23, 2001. The complaint
claims violations of certain provisions of the California Corporations Code in
connection with the following alleged misrepresentations: (i) we misrepresented
that Dr. Peter Patton was a member of our board of directors; (ii) we failed to
disclose an effort by a creditor to force us into involuntary bankruptcy; and
(iii) Donald Hutton falsely identified himself as a certified public accountant
in an SEC filing. On our about May 10, 2002 we were informed that the Superior
Court of California in Los Angeles has, with the agreement of plaintiffs'
counsel, dismissed the complaint without prejudice. We paid nothing to the
plaintiffs or their attorneys in connection with this dismissal.

      We have received correspondence from an attorney in South Carolina
claiming that, in 1996, one of their clients purchased shares of our common
stock for $25,000, that they never received a stock certificate and that, had
they received a stock certificate, they would have sold such stock at the
highest market price at which our stock was listed over the last few years. We
have requested documentation from this attorney and to date have not received
sufficient documentation that such stock was ever purchased. Without such
documentation, in the event that any proceeding is commenced, we intend to
vigorously defend.

      The information is hereby incorporated by reference from the Form 10-QSB
filed on May 14, 2002. There have been no other material developments in the
period covered by this report.

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES

      From April 1, 2002 through June 30, 2002, we sold to accredited investors,
through a private offering, (i) 1,126,008 A Units, at a price of $0.75 per unit
(the "A Units"), with each A Unit consisting of (i) One (1) share of Common
Stock of the Company, and (ii) a warrant to purchase up to One (1) share of
Common Stock of the Company at a per share price of One Dollar ($1.00),
exercisable until December 31, 2002, and (ii) 46,666 B Units, at a price of
$0.75 per unit (the "B Units"), with each B Unit consisting of (i) One (1) share
of Common Stock of the Company, and (ii) a warrant to purchase up to One (1)
share of Common Stock of the Company at a per share price of One Dollar ($1.00),
exercisable until June 30, 2003. In connection with this offering, we paid
$31,000 and issued 20,668 A Units in commissions and finder's fees. In addition,
24,998 A Units were issued in commissions related to offerings in the first
quarter of 2002. As of June 30, 2002, all A Units were issued. The gross
proceeds of the offering were $879,505. As of June 30, 2002, of the 1,172,674 A
and B Units sold during the second quarter of 2002, there was a combination of
122,679 A and B Units subscribed but not yet issued. The proceeds will be used


                                       10
<PAGE>

for general working capital purposes. The sales of these securities were made in
reliance upon Rule 506 and Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

      On or about March 11, 2002, and March 14, 2002, we sold to an accredited
investor, through a private offering, two convertible promissory notes without
interest in aggregate principal face amount of $200,000, convertible at the
option of the holder into B Units at a conversion price of $0.75 per B Unit. On
or about June 25, 2002 the investor converted both promissory notes into an
aggregate of 266,666 B Units. The proceeds were used for general working capital
purposes. The sales of these securities were made in reliance upon Rule 506 and
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

      No changes during the period covered by this report.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

      The annual Shareholder Meeting of the Company was held on May 14, 2002.
Proxies for the meeting were solicited pursuant to Regulation 14A under the
Exchange Act. On the proposal to elect one Class 2 Director of the Company,
11,104,993 shares of the Company's voting securities voted on the matter, of
which 11,014,742 shares were voted for Mr. Homer G. Dunn. The Class 1 and Class
3 directors and the Class 1 and Class 3 director positions were not up for

            hereby incorporated by reference.

RISK FACTORS

      In addition to other information in this 10-QSB, the following risk
factors should be carefully considered in evaluating our business since we
operate in a highly changing and complex business environment that involves
numerous risks, some of which are beyond our control. The following discussion
highlights a few of these risk factors, any one of which may have a significant
adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition. As a
result of the risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this 10-QSB, and the
risks discussed in our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings, actual
results could differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking
statements.

      A failure to obtain additional financing could prevent us from executing
our business plan. We anticipate that current cash resources will be sufficient
to fund our operations through September 2002 at our current rate of spending.
We believe that, due to a poor investment climate, securing additional sources
of financing to enable us to complete the development and commercialization of
our proprietary technologies will be difficult and there is no assurance of our
ability to secure such financing. A failure to obtain additional funding could
prevent us from making expenditures that are needed to pay current obligations,
allow us to hire additional personnel and continue development of the
technology. If we raise additional funds by selling equity securities, the
relative equity ownership of our existing investors could be diluted or the new
investors could obtain terms more favorable than previous investors. If we raise
additional funds through debt financing, we could incur significant borrowing
costs.

      If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, our competitive
position would be adversely affected. We rely on patent protection, as well as
trademark and copyright law, trade secret protection and confidentiality
agreements with our employees and others to protect our intellectual property.
Despite our precautions, unauthorized third parties may copy our products and
services or reverse engineer or obtain and use information that we regard as
proprietary. We have also filed patent applications and intend to file more. We
do not know if any of our intended future patents will be issued or whether we
will be successful in prosecuting any additional patents. In addition, the laws
of some foreign countries do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent
as do the laws of the United States. Our means of protecting our proprietary
rights may not be adequate and third parties may infringe or misappropriate our
patents, copyrights, trademarks and similar proprietary rights. If we fail to
protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights, our business,
financial condition and results of operations would suffer. We believe that we
do not infringe upon the proprietary rights of any third party, and no third
party has asserted a patent infringement claim against us. It is possible,
however, that such a claim might be asserted successfully against us in the
future. We may be forced to suspend our operations to pay significant amounts to
defend our rights, and a substantial amount of the attention of our management
may be diverted from our ongoing business, which can materially affect our
ability to attain and maintain profitability.

      We face possible competition from large companies. The industry that we
are in is highly competitive. Although we believe that our technology is unique,
can be protected, and, if adopted, will confer benefits that will be otherwise
unavailable for some significant time, we face very large competitors with
greater resources who may adopt various strategies to block or slow our market
penetration, thereby straining our more limited resources. They may also seek to
hinder our operations through attempts to recruit key staff with exceptionally
attractive terms of


                                       12
<PAGE>

employment, including signing bonuses, or by offer of highly competitive terms
to potential or newly acquired customers.

      We depend on our key personnel and may have difficulty attracting and
retaining the skilled staff we need to execute our growth plans. Our success
will be dependent largely upon the personal efforts of our Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer, Francis K. Ruotolo, as well as other senior managers. The
loss of key staff could have a material adverse effect on our business and
prospects. To execute our plans, we will need to hire additional staff and
retain current employees. If we are sufficiently funded, we plan to increase our
technical personnel. Competition for highly skilled employees with technical,
management, marketing, sales, product development and other specialized training
is intense. We may not be successful in attracting or retaining such qualified
personnel. Specifically, we may experience increased costs in order to attract
and retain skilled employees. If we are unable to hire, train and manage new
skilled and experienced employees as needed, we would be unable to support our
planned growth and future operations.

      We face rapid technological change. The market for our products and
services is characterized by rapidly changing technologies, extensive research
and the introduction of new products and services. We believe that our future
success will depend in part upon our ability to continue to enhance our existing
products and to develop, manufacture and market new products and services. As a
result, we expect to continue to make a significant investment in engineering,
research and development. There can be no assurance that we will be able to
develop and introduce new products and services or enhance our initial intended
products and services in a timely manner to satisfy customer needs, achieve
market acceptance or address technological changes in our target markets.
Failure to develop products and services and introduce them successfully and in
a timely manner could adversely affect our competitive position, financial
condition and results of operations.

      We may need to manage growth well. We may experience substantial growth in
the size of our staff and the scope of our operations, resulting in increased
responsibilities for management. To manage this possible growth effectively, we
will need to continue to improve our operational, financial and management
information systems and to hire, train, motivate and manage a growing number of
staff. We expect to experience difficulty in filling our needs for qualified
engineers and other personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to
effectively achieve or manage any future growth, and our failure to do so could
delay product development cycles and market penetration or otherwise have a
material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

      We could face information and product liability risks and may not have
adequate insurance. Because we intend to provide middleware solutions to
critical business and Internet applications, we may become the subject of
litigation alleging that our products were ineffective or disruptive in their
treatment of data, or in the compilation, processing or manipulation of critical
business information. Thus, we may become the targets of lawsuits from injured
or disgruntled businesses or other users. We do not presently carry product or
information liability or errors and omissions insurance, and although we intend
to acquire such insurance prior to commencing substantial sales, such insurance
may not be available in an acceptable or affordable form. In the event that we
are required to defend more than a few such actions, or in the event that we
were found liable in connection with such an action, our business and operations
would be severely and materially adversely affected.

      We are dependent on new demand for our products and services. The success
of our business depends upon demand for and use of our technology, products and
services in general and the demand for additional computing power, cost
effectiveness and speed in particular. Our technology introduces a new kind of
middleware, so we may encounter substantial market resistance. In the event
sufficient demand does not develop, our business and results of operations would
be materially adversely affected. We believe that there appears to be increased
demand for computing power, cost effectiveness and speed, but if general
economic conditions decline or hardware and memory advances make such power,
cost effectiveness and speed more readily available, then adoption, use and
sales of our products and services may be materially adversely affected.

      We will need to continue our product development efforts. We believe that
our market will be characterized by increasing technical sophistication. We also
believe that our eventual success will depend on our ability to continue to
provide increased and specialized technical expertise. There is no assurance
that we will not fall technologically behind competitors with greater resources.
Although we believe that we enjoy a significant lead in our product development
and introduction, and are hopeful that our patents provide some protection, we
will


                                       13
<PAGE>

likely need significant additional capital in order to continue to enjoy such a
technological lead over competitors with more resources.

      Market acceptance of our products and services is not guaranteed. We are
at an early stage of development and our earnings will depend upon broad market
acceptance and utilization of our intended products and services. There can be
no assurance that our product and technology development efforts will result in
new products and services, or that they will be successfully introduced.

      Future profitability is not guaranteed. We have not recognized any
operating revenues to date. Assuming we are able to secure sufficient financing,
we expect to begin recognizing revenues from the sale of products and services
in calendar 2002. There is no assurance that our plans will be realized, that we
will be able to generate revenues in 2002 or that we will achieve profitability
in the future.

      Limited market for our common stock. Our common stock is not listed on any
exchange and trades in the over-the-counter (the "OTC") market. As such, the
market for our common stock is limited and is not regulated by the authorities
of any exchange. Further, the price of our common stock and its volume in the
OTC market may be subject to wide fluctuations.

      We focus on the research and development of our proprietary technologies.
Our present focus is on the research and development of our proprietary
technologies. We believe that, given sufficient funding, these technologies will
be the basis for the development of highly marketable commercial products.
However, there can be no assurance of this and it is possible that our
proprietary technologies have no commercial benefit or potential. In addition,
from our inception to the present, we have had no commercial products and have
not recognized any operating revenues.

      We have a long corporate existence and were inactive during much of our
corporate history. We were formed as the Sullivan Computer Corporation,
incorporated in Delaware in January 1979. We were privately owned until late
1986, at which time our common stock began trading in the over-the-counter
market. This was a result of the registration of our common stock pursuant to
the merger with CHoPP Computer Corporation, a British Columbia corporation.
During the period from mid-1987 through late 1999, we had few or no employees.
Our operating activities were limited and were largely administered personally
by our former Chairman, Donald R. Hutton. Due to the passage of time and the
poor condition of financial and other records, there can be no assurance that
all matters have been addressed at this date.
