                               THE FIRST SCHEDULE
                               ------------------


 Currently, the Company has three major products.

 A. HanWEB Publishing Server Professional 3.0 for Windows 2000, Linux, Sun
Solaria and AIX

It consists of four major components:

1.       HanWEB Fanjtan  Translation  Server 3.0 (One way translation  only e.g.
         From traditional Chinese to simplified Chinese only or from traditional
         Chinese to simplified Chinese only)


 A real time online translation engine between traditional Chinese and
 simplified Chinese with the following benefits:

*        Cost and time saving - All maintenance and update (including content,
         design and programming) are made in one version.

*        Easy and Instant installation - As a plug and play solution, simplified
         and traditional Chinese version can be built immediately.

*        Best quality translation - Accurate translation is assured by a
         rule-based and database driven engine. On top of character-based
         translation, sophisticated vocabulary-based database translation is
         also included.

*        Content management made simple - Only one set of database is maintained
         and updated.

*        Information Integrity -- Since all Chinese contents (traditional
         Chinese or simplified Chinese) are originated from one database or
         source, information integrity can be kept.

2.       HanWEB UDC Chinese Font Server 3.0

         In Hong Kong, there are frequently used characters for name of places
         and people or Cantonese dialect which are not contained in Big-5
         character coding scheme. These characters cannot be correctly displayed
         or are missing in the client's browsers.

         In view of this situation, the Government of Hong Kong has recently
         published a new Hong Kong Supplementary Character Sot (HKSCS) inclusive
         of 4700 commonly used characters not defined in Big-S. However, users
         have to download HKSCS fonts in order to view these characters online.

         With the help of HanWEB UDC Chinese Font Server, users do not need to
         download anything but HKSCS characters can still be correctly displayed
         in their browser. In fact, HanWEB UDC Chinese Font Server is capable of
         generating character images on the fly and push to the client's
         browser. Hence, we can ensure that all contents can be delivered to
         users.

3.       HanWEB Chinese Font Server 3.0

         With KanHan's patent pending technology, all Chinese characters can be
         converted to images and be viewed on non-Chinese browser environment.
         Hence, Web publishers can deliver their Chinese contents all over the
         world without barriers.
                                       28

         In essence, HanWEB Chinese Font Server is an Innovative publishing

         unlimited Chinese characters support for as simple as news to as
         complicated as dictionaries and ancient literatures.
