 ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
 
 The following discussion and analysis provides certain information, which the Company's management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of
 the Company's results of operations and financial condition for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. This discussion and analysis should be read
 in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and related footnotes.
 
 General
 
 Plan of Operation
 
 The short-term objectives of Amanda are the following:
 
 ·  Regain profitability through product cost restructuring, pricing changes and simplification of products.
 ·  Develop new products that integrate our technologies with other ready to market technologies.
 ·  Develop strategic relationships that license our technologies.
 ·  Reduce revenue product dependency on voice mail.
 
 Amanda's long-term objectives are as follows:
 
 ·  Position Amanda Portal as an industry recognized communications opersting system.
 ·  Enhance revenue stream with recurring service revenues.
 ·  Develop new intelligently integrated applications that are market specific products that will allow different communication devices work together,
 
 Strategic Vision
 
 Key to Amandas business in the future is the following:
 
 ·  Transition of Amandas product strength away from PBX and Key Systems that is a declining market to products that bring together PSTN and IP network capabilities to develop intelligent call processing and message handling systems. Amandas Microsoft DOS based product line still has a demand for new shipments and field replacements, which represents the bulk of Amanda sales. However, the Amanda Portal is beginning to generate new revenues as a product that can bring together and create new applications for PSTN, IP network and database capabilities.
 
 ·  Sustaining our dealer network to take our products to market.
 
 ·  Developing strategic relationships to create high margin opportunities while minimizing our exposure.
 
 ·  Leveraging Amanda Portal as a communications operating system to quickly bring intelligently integrated database processing and message handling applications to specialized markets. Over the next twelve months, Management is of the opinion that sufficient working capital will be obtained from operations and external financing to meet the Company's liabilities and commitments as they become payable. The Company has in the past successfully relied on private placements of common stock securities, bank debt, loans from private investors and the exercise of common stock warrants in order to sustain operations.
 
 There is no expected or planned sale of significant equipment by the Company. The Company's work force is expected to remain at the current level over the next twelve months.
 
 **13**
  Results of Operations
 
 Net sales: Net sales for the Company decreased $878,257 to $3,154,289 for the period ending September 30, 2002 from $4,032,546 for the period ending September 30, 2001, or approximately 22 percent. A slowdown in orders from Amandas distributors resulted in the reduced sales. Our distributors claim to have experienced lower sales as a result of the economic conditions.
 
 Cost of sales: Cost of sales of $1,676,403 for the period ended September 30, 2002 decreased $718,408 from $2,394,811 or 29% from the same period prior year. As a percentage of net sales, Cost of sales decreased to 53% of net sales as compared to 59% for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in Cost of sales was mainly due to the reduction in shipping costs due to improved management of inventory purchases and shipments to customers.
 
 Selling, general and administrative expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses of $2,799,955 for the period ending September 30, 2002 increased by $852,361 from $1,947,594 or approximately 44% from the year ended September 30, 2001. This increase was due an increase consulting expenses over prior year.
 
 Interest expense: Interest expense of $156,681 for the period ending September 30, 2002 increased $56,396 from the same period prior year.
 
 
 
 Liquidity and capital resources
 
 Amanda had negative working capital at September 30, 2002 of $3,145,194 compared to negative working capital of $1,641,440 at September 30, 2001 for a decrease in working capital of $1,503,754. The working capital decrease during the year was mainly attributable to increases in the following liabilities: 1) short term convertible debentures of $895,952, 2) liabilities from discontinued operations of $444,841, 3) dividends payable of $629,126 and miscellaneous items of $66,716, offset by decreases in the payable to Pen Interconnect of $461,200, and notes payable of $143,500 coupled with decreases in the following current assets: 1) accounts receivable of $71,429,and inventory of $116,148 offset by increases in prepaid expenses of $75,549, other receivables of $10,795, cash and cash equivalents of $29,414.
 
 Net cash used in operations for the twelve months ended September 30, 2002 totaled $627,004 as compared to $563,906 for the comparable prior year period for an increase in usage of $63,098. The $627,004 in cash used was mainly made up of the September 30, 2002 year end operating loss of $1,639,759 offset by $309,800 for the amortization of the beneficial conversion feature, warrant and option compensation expense of $95,115 and common stock issued for merger expenses valued at $602,114.
 
 Financing activities provided cash totaling $655,676 during 2002 as compared to $636,054 in cash generated during the prior year for an increase of $19,622. The increase was mainly attributable the issuance of $870,000 in convertible promissory notes, partially offset by reductions in notes payable totaling $193,500, preferred dividend adjustments of $148,803 and a decrease in proceeds from advances of $461,200 . In 2001, the largest cash contributors from financing activities were the cash advances from Pen Interconnect, totaling $461,200 and the net borrowings from equipment lease financing which generated an additional $115,804.
 
 Investing activities provided cash of $739 during 2002 as compared to using $85,613 in cash during the prior year period, primarily reflecting non-recurring equipment write-offs in 2001.
 
 In summary, the Company continues to incur losses and suffers from inadequate cash flow. While the Company was able to cover its cash needs in 2002 by issuing convertible notes and debentures and by improvements in its utilization of operating assets and liabilities, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to obtain further equity funding to provide for its cash needs in future periods.
 
 
 **14**
  Going Concern
 
 The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $3,145,194 as at September 30, 2002 and has suffered recurring losses from operations which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Companys continued viability depends on two primary factors: reduction of operating losses and additional capital infusions. The Companys management intends to employ a number of strategies to accomplish these goals. In order to reduce operating losses, the Company will attempt to increase sales volume by continuing its focus on expanding the customer base, as well as the customized applications for, its Portal communications operating system. This product offers more attractive gross margins and a substantially larger market potential than the Companys core product lines. At the same time, the Company will endeavor to slow the rate of sales decline in its core product lines through aggressive pricing strategies and more effective liaison with its existing dealer organization. The Company will also continue to seek opportunities to lower its average unit costs on core products, and will further reduce operating expenses by selected headcount reductions, closing of the Connecticut office, partial deferral of salaries paid to management employees, and by any other means that may be available. Management will continue its efforts to provide additional capital via equity infusions, either from existing investors or new potential sources of capital. The Company will also seek merger opportunities and/or strategic partnerships with other specialty telecommunications companies which might not only provide additional capital, but might also create additional sales opportunities with minimal additional expense risk. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in these endeavors.

F7The Amanda Company, Inc.Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (continued)September 30, 2002 and 2001
 
  1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
 Organization and line of business
 
 The Amanda Company, Inc. (the Company) operates in a single business segment that includes the design, development, and manufacture of PC enabled telephone answering system software and related equipment and products. The Companys products include voice mail, automated attendant, call control, messaging and voice over Internet. Sales are made primarily to resellers and dealers. The Company operated as The Automatic Answer, Inc (tAA) prior to October 1, 2001, which is the effective date of its merger with Pen Interconnect, Inc. The trading symbol of Amanda is AMNA.
 
 Pen Interconnect, Inc. ("Pen") was incorporated on September 30, 1985, in the State of Utah. Pen was a shell company that had discontinued its operations and had no operating revenues during fiscal 2002 and 2001. Through March 3, 2000, the date of foreclosure of its last operating division, the Company was a total interconnection solution provider offering custom design and manufacturing of circuit boards, battery chargers, power supplies and uninterrupted power supply systems for original equipment manufacturers. Pen did not have any revenue during the years ended September 30, 2002 and 2001.
 
 
 Basis of presentation
 
 Effective October 1, 2001, the Company acquired Pen Interconnect, Inc. (Pen) (trading symbol: PENC) through a reverse merger.
 
 The application of reverse takeover accounting, resulted in the consolidated financial statements being issued under the name of the legal parent (f/k/a Pen Interconnect, Inc.), but are a continuation of the financial statements of the legal subsidiary, (the Automatic Answer), and not of the legal parent. The control of the assets and business of Pen Interconnect, Inc., is deemed acquired in consideration for the issuance of capital by tAA. Upon completion of the merger, Pen Interconnect, Inc., changed its name to The Amanda Company.
 The Company, effective February 8, 2002, did a reverse split of its common stock at a 10 to 1 ratio. The reverse split did not change the proportionate equity interests of the Company's stockholders at the time of the split, nor were the respective voting rights and other rights of stockholders altered, except for possible immaterial changes due to rounding up to eliminate fractional shares. The reverse split is reflected in both the Companys September 30, 2002 balance sheet and retroactively in its September 30, 2002 balance sheet. .
 Consolidation policy
 
 The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary corporations, after elimination of all material inter-company accounts, transactions and profits. These financial statements consolidate the accounts of the Amanda Company and Pen subsequent to the merger date. Pens operating activity, which is limited to the resolution of various amounts payable, is included as discontinued operations.
 
 
 F-8The Amanda Company, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2002 and 2001
 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
 Use of estimates
 
 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include reserve for bad debts, reserve for obsolete inventory, and depreciation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 
 Contingencies
 
 Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Companys management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Companys legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
 
 If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Companys financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
 
 Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.
 
 
 Cash and cash equivalents
 
 For purpose of the statements of cash flows, cash equivalents include amounts invested in a money market account with a financial institution. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates market.
 
 
 Concentration of cash
 
 The Company at times maintains cash balances in excess of the federally insured limit of $100,000 per institution. There were no uninsured balances as of September 30, 2002 and 2001.
 F-9The Amanda Company, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2002 and 2001
 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
 Revenue recognition
 
 The Company recognizes revenue when merchandise is shipped to a customer or at the time services are rendered. Advances received before the merchandise is delivered are recorded as deferred revenue. License revenues are generated through contracts which grant a customer the use of call processing software developed by Amanda. Revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the contract .
 
 Non-Amanda products consist predominately of voice boards which are sold to dealers. Amanda has all risks associated with the sale including inventory and accounts receivable risk. The sales are accounted for on a gross basis. The accounting treatment is consistent with EITF 99-19.
 
 Dealers and distributors that purchase Amanda products do not have the right to return those products. Some returns do occur for exchanges and upgrades but amount is immaterial in relation to total sales. Warranties are provided for up to one year after the purchase of Amanda products, but warranty coverage (i.e. replacement of product) is provided by Amandas vendors. Amanda does not incur warranty costs other than out of pocket receiving and shipping expenses.
 Accounts receivable and the allowance for doubtful accounts
 
 Accounts receivable are typically unsecured. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers financial condition. It generally requires no collateral and maintains reserves for potential credit losses on customer accounts when necessary
 
 The Company establishes an allowance for uncollectible trade accounts receivable based on historical collection experience and management evaluation of collectibility of outstanding accounts receivable.
 
 
 Inventory
 
 Inventory consists principally of network telephone PC hardware and is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Management reviews the quality and salability of the inventory on a periodic basis and establishes reserves based upon the lower of cost or fair market value.
 
 
 Property and equipment
 
 Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Maintenance and minor replacements are charged to expense as incurred. Gains and losses on disposals are included in the results of operations.
 
 Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:
 
 Office furniture and fixtures
7 yearsComputer and office equipment
5 yearsComputer software
3 years
 
 Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the lesser of the asset life or the life of the respective lease.
 
 F-10The Amanda Company, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2002 and 2001
 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
 
 Assets held under capital leases
 
 Assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the net present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased asset at the inception of the lease. Amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the period of the related lease.
 
 
 Advertising costs
 
 The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Total advertising expense was $ 928 and $17,195 for the years ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
 
 
 Basic and diluted net earnings per share
 
 Basic net earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) applicable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of shares that might be issued upon exercise of common stock options. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
 
 
 Income taxes
 
 The Company utilizes SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
 Fair value of financial instruments
 
 The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The amounts shown for notes payable also approximate fair value because current interest rates offered to the Company for debt of similar maturities are substantially the same.
 
 
 Adoption of SFAS-133: Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
 
 The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", which requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. The Company is currently not engaged in hedging activities nor does it have any derivative instruments, thus there is no impact on the current periods financial statements

 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
 Comprehensive income (loss)
 
 Comprehensive income consists of net income and other gains and losses affecting shareholders equity that, under generally accepted accounting principles are excluded from net income in accordance with Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." The Company, however, does not have any components of comprehensive income (loss) as defined by SFAS No. 130 and therefore, for the years ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, comprehensive income (loss) is equivalent to the Companys reported net income (loss).
 
 
 Deferred revenue
 
 The Company recognizes revenues as earned. Amounts billed in advance of the period in which service is rendered are recorded as a liability under "Deferred revenue."
 
 
 Stock split
 
 In October 2002, the board of directors approved a one-for-ten reverse stock split of the Corporations common stock, which was effective in 2002 to shareholders of record on February 8, 2002. Shareholders equity, common stock, and stock option activity for all periods presented have been restated to give retroactive recognition to the stock split. In addition, all references in the financial statements and notes to financial statements, to weighted average number of shares, per share amounts, and market prices of the Companys common stock have been restated to give retroactive recognition to the stock split.
 
 
 Stock option plan
 
 Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123 (Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation) encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans based on the fair value of options granted. The Company has elected to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees) and related interpretations and to provide additional disclosures with respect to the pro forma effects of adoption had the Company recorded compensation expense as provided in FAS-123 (see Note 15).
 
 In accordance with APB-25, compensation cost for stock options is recognized in income based on the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the grant date of the award or other measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Generally, the exercise price for stock options granted to employees equals or exceeds the fair market value of the Companys common stock at the date of grant, thereby resulting in no recognition of compensation expense by the Company.

 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
 Stock option plan (continued)
 
 In March 2000, the FASB released Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation." This Interpretation addresses certain practice issues related to APB Opinion No. 25 in regards to options or warrants granted to employees and other third-parties. The Companys policies comply with the guidance provided by FIN No.44.
 
 
 Long-lived assets
 
 The Company accounts for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of". In accordance with SFAS No. 121, long-lived assets to be held are reviewed for events or changes in circumstances, which indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. During the years ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, no impairment has been recorded.
 
 
 Discontinued operations
 
 Pens current operating activities consist solely of the resolution of amounts remaining payable to the prior Pen creditors that did not participate in a voluntary conversion of debt for common stock program. These payables are included as liabilities from discontinued operations.
 
 
 Segment reporting
 
 The FASB issued SFAS 131 on "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" effective in 1998. The Company evaluated SFAS 131 and determined that it operates in only one segment.
 
 
 Recent accounting pronouncements
 
 In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 ("SFAS 141"), "Business Combinations," which supercedes Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations." SFAS 141 requires the purchase method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001, and eliminates the pooling-of-interests method. In addition, SFAS 141 establishes specific criteria for the recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill and requires unallocated negative goodwill to be written off immediately as an extraordinary gain. The provisions of SFAS 141 are required to be adopted July 1, 2001. The adoption of SFAS 141 will not change the method of accounting used in previous business combinations including those the Company accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method. The adoption of this statement did not have any impact on the Companys financial condition or results from operations.

 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
 Recent accounting pronouncements (continued)
 
 In July 2001, the FASB also issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 ("SFAS 142"), "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Certain provisions shall also be applied to acquisitions initiated subsequent to June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 supercedes APB Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets," and requires, among other things, the discontinuance of amortization related to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets. These assets will then be subject to an impairment test at least annually. In addition, the standard includes provisions upon adoption for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles and reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill. The adoption of this statement did not have any impact on the Companys financial condition or results from operations.
 
 In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." SFAS No. 143 requires liability recognition for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived asset and the associated asset retirement costs. The Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002 with earlier application encouraged. The implementation of SFAS No. 143 will not have a material affect on the Companys results of operations or financial position.
 
 In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Bureau issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This statement also extends the reporting requirements to report separately, as discontinued operations, components of an entity that have either been disposed of or are classified as held-for-sale. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 144 effective July 1, 2002. The adoption of this statement did not have any impact on the Companys financial condition or results from operations.
 
 In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 145 ("SFAS 145"), "Rescission of FASB Statements Nos. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." SFAS 145 eliminates the requirement that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect. SFAS 145 was adopted by the Company in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002. The adoption of SFAS 145 is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys results of operations or financial position.
 
 
 Reclassifications
 
 Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2001 financial statements to conform to the 2002 presentation.

The Company has an accumulated deficit of $ 5,627,907 at September 30, 2002 . In addition, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $ 3,145,194 at September 30, 2002 . These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence. The Companys continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the additional financing necessary to complete development of new products and achieve the level of sales that will enable it to sustain its operations.
 
 Additionally, the Company is seeking to enter into a strategic acquisition or merger with companies in allied businesses and anticipates obtaining more financing from equity sources to fund its operations. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.
 
 
 
 3.  Accounts Receivable
 
 The Companys accounts receivable consists of balances due from dealers in the telecommunications industry. The terms are normally net 10 days. Accounts receivable amounted to $137,870 at September 30, 2002 and $209,977 at September 30, 2001
 
 The Company recorded an allowance for bad debts of $53,475 at September 30, 2002 and $54,153 at September 30, 2001 .

 10.  Income Taxes (continued)
 
 At September 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company has available approximately $3,250,562 and $1,462,000 in net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future federal and state income taxes, respectively, whicih expire through 2020.
 
 The provision for income taxes consists of state franchise taxes. The expected combined federal and state income tax benefit of approximately 45% is reduced predominately by the valuation allowance applied to such benefits. The use of loss carryforwards from Pen of approximately $387,000 is limited because of the change of greater than 50% in the ownership of its stock resulting from the merger.
 
 A reconciliation of the provision for income tax expense with the expected income tax computed by applying the federal statutory income tax rate to income before provision for (benefit from) income taxes for the year ended September 30, 2002, is as follows:

 The exercises period for the options ranges from immediate to four years from the date of the grant and have various vesting requirements.
 
 The Company has adopted only the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123. It applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock options and warrants granted to employees or to members of the Companys Board of Directors. Pursuant to FASB Interpretation No. 44, the Company applies provisions of SFAS No. 123 for options and warrants granted to third parties. Accordingly, in 2002, compensation cost has been recognized for its stock options and warrants granted to outside third parties subsequent to June 30, 2000. This information is required to be determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options/warrants granted subsequent to December 31, 1994, under the fair value method of that statement.

 If the Company had elected to recognize compensation expense based upon the fair value at the grant date for awards under this plan consistent with the methodology prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss and loss per share would be reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below for the years ended September 30:

 Options/warrants are granted at prices equal to the current fair value of the Companys common stock at the date of grant. All options and warrants granted during fiscal year 2002 and 2001 vest immediately.
 
 The fair value of these options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: 2002: dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 300%; risk-free interest rate of 5.3%, and expected life of 2 to 5 years; 2001: dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 300%; risk-free interest rate of 5.8%, and expected life equal to the actual life for the period. The weighted-average fair value of options and warrants granted were $0.02 and $0.06 for 2001, and $0.006 and $0.01 for 2002.
 
 The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its stock options.

 21.   Modifications made to previously issued audited financial statements
 
 Subsequent to the issuance of the audited financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 with an audit report dated January 3, 2003, the Company modified its accounting for several transactions in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These transactions are summarized as follows:
 
 During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002, the Company changed its accounting treatment for goodwill and the beneficial conversion feature resulting from the merger transaction between Pen and The Automatic Answer, Inc. The Company originally accounted for the transaction as a purchase using the reverse merger takeover accounting. Subsequently, management determined that the merger should have been treated as a capital transaction in substance rather than a business combination. The Company eliminated goodwill in the amount of $2,811,498 and the related charge to impairment. Additionally, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature related to notes acquired as part of the merger in the amount of $215,959, which was fully amortized to interest expense as of September 30, 2002. 
 The Company recorded the beneficial conversion feature associated with $870,000 of new convertible debentures issued during 2002 (see Note 13) in the amount of $331,418. Of that amount, $93,844 was charged to interest expense for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002. F-31
