Item 1.  Description of Business

Background

The Company is a Delaware corporation organized in April 1993 under the name
Sterling Partners, Inc. Upon its organization, the Company engaged in the
business of acquiring tax lien certificates of redemption from various county
governments located in Maryland. In May 1996 the Company acquired Sterling Real
Estate Company, a Delaware corporation, which owned a commercial property in
Cecil County, Maryland. The property was subsequently sold and, in October 1998,
Sterling Global, Ltd.was spun off to the Company's shareholders.

On January 29, 1999, GourmetMarket.com, a California corporation
("GourmetMarket"), merged with and into the Company, with the Company being the
surviving corporation. Pursuant to its merger agreement with GourmetMarket, the
shareholders of GourmetMarket received 7,421,220 shares of the Company's common
stock, or approximately 47.4% of the Company's common stock outstanding after
the merger. Also pursuant to the merger agreement, persons holding options for
the purchase of GourmetMarket common stock exchanged their options for options
to purchase 2,298,780 shares of the Company's common stock. The merger agreement
also gave the GourmetMarket shareholders control of the Company's board of
directors, subject to the Company's meeting business projections to be agreed
upon by the parties to the merger. The merger agreement also provided for the
resignation of substantially all of the Company's officers and directors, who
were replaced by designated officers and directors, most of whom were then
officers or directors of GourmetMarket.

The Company has owned and operated GourmetMarket.com, an online culinary
marketplace for gourmet and specialty food, wine and cookware. The
GourmetMarket.com site was in full operation from September 1998 to January 15,
2001, when the Company ceased all operations of the site.

In February 1999 the Company acquired Travlang.com, an Internet travel-related
service company. On January 14, 2000, the Company sold its Travlang.com assets
to iiGroup, Inc., a related party, for consideration of 250,000 common shares of
iiGroup, Inc., $146,000 in cash, and the assumption of $104,000 of Travlang.com
liabilities.

The Company's office is located at 7000 W. Palmetto Park Road, Suite 501, Boca
Raton, Florida, 33433. Its telephone number is 561-620-9202.

Business


The Company currently operates no active business. It is working on settling its
trades debts, and converting its long term creditors to equity. In addition,
pursuant to a Transfer Agreement dated March 23, 2001 among the Company, Gourmet
Productions, Inc., d/b/a VirtualGourmet.com, and Rundell Coursey Company, the
Company transferred its domain name, brand name and all technology used in the
operation of the GourmetMarket.com website, in exchange for cancellation of
$100,000 of matured notes, 20% of Gourmet Productions outstanding stock, and a
percentage of VirtualGourmet.com's gross retail sales up to $125,000 in
royalties. The Company also agreed to issue 20,000 shares of its stock to
Gourmet Productions. In addition, management is exploring other opportunities
for the Company and refocusing the Company on interactive marketing, assuming
the informal workout with creditors is completed successfully. There is no
assurance that even if management is successful in working out the debts of the
Company, that it will be successful in locating alternative opportunities.


Employees

The Company has no full time employees.

Item 2.  Description of Property

The Company subleases an office at 7000 W. Palmetto Park Road, Suite 501, Boca
Raton, Florida 33433.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings

Item 5.  Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

The Company's Common Stock is traded on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board under the
symbol WINE.

The following bid quotations have been reported for the period beginning January
1, 2000, and ending December 31, 2000.

                                                         Bid Prices
         Period                                     High               Low
         ------                                     ----               ---
Quarter Ended March 31, 2000                       1.5625             1.125
Quarter Ended June 30, 2000                        1.5                0.9375
Quarter Ended September 30, 2000                   1.4375             0.4375
Quarter Ended December 31, 2000                    0.6094             0.0938


Such quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down
or commission. Such quotes are not necessarily representative of actual
transactions or of the value of the Company's securities, and are in all
likelihood not based upon any recognized criteria of securities valuation as
used in the investment banking community.

The Company has been advised that eight member firms of the NASD are currently
acting as market makers for the common stock. There is no assurance that an
active trading market will develop which will provide liquidity for the
Company's existing shareholders or for persons who may acquire common stock
through the exercise of warrants.

As of April 10, 2001, there were 114 holders of record of the Company's common
stock. Certain of the shares of common stock are held in "street" name and may,
therefore, be held by several beneficial owners.

As of April 10, 2001, there were 20,156,271 shares of Common Stock issued. Of
those shares 17,496,270 shares are "restricted" securities of the Company within
the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, because such shares were issued and sold by the Company in private
transactions not involving a public offering.

In general, under Rule 144, as currently in effect, subject to the satisfaction
of certain other conditions, a person, including an affiliate of the Company (in
general, a person who has a control relationship with the company) who has owned
restricted securities of common stock beneficially for at least one year is
entitled to sell, within any three-month period, that number of shares of a
class of securities that does not exceed the greater of (i) one percent (1%) of
the shares of that class then outstanding or, if the common stock is quoted on
NASDAQ, (ii) the average weekly trading volume of that class during the four
calendar weeks preceding such sale. A person who has not been an affiliate of
the company for at least the three months immediately preceding the sale and has
beneficially owned shares of common stock for at least two (2) years is entitled
to sell such shares under Rule 144 without regard to any of the limitations
described above.

No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of shares
of common stock or the availability of common stock for future sale will have on
the market price of the common stock prevailing from time-to-time. Sales of
substantial amounts of common stock on the public market could adversely affect
the prevailing market price of the common stock.

                                       6
<PAGE>

The Company has not paid a cash dividend on the common stock since current
management joined the Company. The payment of dividends may be made at the
discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company and will depend upon, among
other things, the Company's operations, its capital requirements, and its
overall financial condition.

See Item 6 Liquidity and Capital Resources for a description of the financing
transactions for fiscal year 2000.


Item 6.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

Results of Operations


The Company had sales from discontinuing operations of $1,478,463 in the year
ended December 31, 2000 compared to sales of $880,464 in the year ended December
31, 1999. The Company had a gross profit from discontinuing operations of
$318,044 in the year ended December 31, 2000, compared to a gross profit of
$69,873 in the year ended December 31, 1999. The Company had a loss from
discontinuing operations of $1,505,965 in the year ended December 31, 2000
compared to an operating loss from discontinuing operations of $2,382,220 in the
comparable 1999 period. The Company had a net loss of $1,988,676 in calendar
year 2000 compared to a net loss of $3,760,710 in 1999. Although the Company
increased its sales and increased its gross profits during fiscal year 2000,
other factors which affected the decrease in net loss was a surrender of stock
options during 2000. Even with these results, the Company was unable to raise
the necessary funding to continue its operations and is refocusing the Company
on interactive marketing strategies for the Internet.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had total current assets of $96,003 at December 31,2000 compared to
total current assets of $128,192 (restated) at December 31, 1999. Total assets
increased from $203,106 at December 31, 1999 to $237,335 at December 31, 2000.
The Company's current liabilities increased to $2,533,715 at December 31,2000
from $1,392,058 (restated) at December 31,1999, primarily as a result of
maturing long-term debt and an increase in accounts payable and accrued
expenses. The Company used net cash for operations of $1,274,658 during 2000
compared to $1,729,893 for calendar year 1999, as a result of decreased
operating losses from the Company's business operations.

In February 2000, iiGroup, Inc., an affiliate of the Company, loaned a total of
$250,000 to the Company pursuant to two 8% Convertible Bridge Notes. The Bridge
Notes provide that they may be prepaid at any time, but are mandatorily
prepayable upon the sale of all of the outstanding shares of the Company, the
sale of substantially all of the Company's assets, or the closing of financing
of at least $5,000,000. The Convertible Notes are convertible into common stock
of the Company at the lower of $1.00 per share or 75% of the average closing bid
price of the Company's common stock in the five days preceding the date of
conversion. These Bridge notes matured on December 31,2000.

                                       7

In May 2000, the Company raised a total of $40,000 from unrelated third parties

This Bridge Note matured on December 31, 2000. It has subsequently been forgiven
by Quartz Capital Group, Inc., and is no longer due and owing.


In July 2000, iiGroup, Inc., loaned a total of $100,000 to the Company pursuant
to a 10% Convertible Bridge note. The Bridge Note provides that it may be
prepaid at any time, but is mandatorily prepayable upon the sale of all of the

During the quarter ended September 30, 2000, iiGroup, Inc., loaned an additional

prepayable upon the sale of all of the outstanding shares of the Company, the
sale of substantially all of the Company's assets, or the closing of financing
of at least $2,000,000. The Bridge Notes are convertible into common stock of
the Company at the lower of $0.85 per share or 75% of the average closing bid
price of the Company's common stock in the five days preceding the date of
conversion. Simultaneously with the execution of these notes the Company agreed
to issue 320,000 shares of the Company's common stock issued to iiGroup, Inc.
These Bridge Notes mature on June 30, 2001.

                                       8
<PAGE>

the five days preceding the date of conversion. In conjunction with this loan
the Company agreed to issue warrants to purchase 15,000 shares of its common
stock at $.01 per share. This Bridge Note matured on December 26, 2000. As part
of a Transfer Agreement with Rundell, Coursey and Company and Virtual Gourmet,
more fully described under "Business", these notes have been returned and marked
fully paid.

On October 10, 2000, iiGroup, Inc., loaned an additional $25,000 to the Company
pursuant to an 8% Convertible Bridge Note. The Bridge Note provides that they
may be prepaid at any time, but are mandatorily prepayable upon the sale of al
of the outstanding shares of the Company, the sale of substantially all of the
Company's assets, or the closing of financing of at least $2,000,000. The Bridge

On October 31, 2000, an individual loaned the Company $100,000 pursuant to a
non-interest bearing Bridge Note, due and payable on November 20, 2000. The
Bridge Note was collateralized by 250,000 shares of iiGroup, Inc. common stock
owned by the Company. Upon default of the Bridge Note the shares were
transferred to the lender in full satisfaction of the Bridge Note.

Management is currently negotiating with iiGroup, Inc. to convert all remaining
outstanding Bridge Notes into equity in the Company.

In calendar year 2000, the Company borrowed $815,859 to meet ongoing operating
expenses. The Company also realized proceeds from the issuance of common stock
of $301,951 in 2000 compared to $964,129 in calendar year 1999.


The Company has incurred significant net losses and negative cash flows for
operations since November 1997 as a result of the development of its
GourmetMarket business operations. The Company has funded these losses primarily
from the issuance of common stock to the Company's founders, loans by related
parties, loans by third party lenders and the private placement of the Company's
securities to individuals. The Company was unsuccessful in raising significant
additional capital or debt financing in the fourth quarter of 2000 to continue
its operations. The Company is currently exploring business opportunities
unrelated to the previous GourmetMarket business, including interactive
marketing. There is no assurance that management will be successful in
identifying such opportunities, raising sufficient capital to pursue them, or be
able to complete any transactions. Management is currently attempting to work
out arrangements with its trade creditors in order to avoid the possibility of a
bankruptcy proceeding.

Board of Directors

All directors of the Company hold office until the next annual meeting of
stockholders or until their successors are elected and qualified.

The Company's By-Laws eliminate the personal liability of officers and directors
to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law. The effect of such provision is
to require the Company to indemnify the officers and directors of the Company
for any claim arising against such persons in their official capacities if such
person acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct
was lawful.

There are no committees of the Board, which acts as the full Board with respect
to any matter. No director receives any compensation for serving as a member of
the Board of Directors.

No compensation is paid to any director, as such, for his or her services, but,
by resolution of the Board of Directors, a fixed sum or expense for actual
attendance at each regular or special meeting by the Board may be authorized.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Based solely on a review of Forms 4 and 5 furnished to the Company and filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Rule 16a-3(e) promulgated
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company believes that all
directors, officers and beneficial owners of more than 10% of any class of
equity securities filed on a timely basis the reports required by Section 16(a)
of the Exchange Act during the most recent fiscal year.

after that date.

GourmetMarket was formed in November 1997 by Chanan Steinhart, Arome, Ltd., and
Janis Johnson. Chanan Steinhart is a principal shareholder, officer and director
of Arome, Ltd. The founders of GourmetMarket had an oral agreement to provide
capital, technology, content and services as they deemed necessary on a start-up
basis. In consideration of their organizing GourmetMarket and their agreement to
provide capital, services, technology and content, GourmetMarket issued shares
of its common stock to each of its three founders. Prior to the merger of
GourmetMarket into the Company, GourmetMarket had 763,500 shares of its common
stock outstanding as follows: Chanan Steinhart and Arome, 123,500 shares; Janis
Johnson, 140,000 shares; and i-Labs, 500,000 shares. i-Labs is controlled by
Gideon Shalom-Ben Dor, a Director of the Company, and Yishai Steinhart, a
brother of Chanan Steinhart, the Company's former President. These shares were
each exchanged for 9.72 shares of common stock of the Company pursuant to the
merger.

On September 25, 1998, Arome Publishing U.S., Inc., a subsidiary of Arome, Ltd.,
entered into an assignment and transfer agreement with GourmetMarket. Pursuant
to that agreement, Arome, Ltd., assigned to GourmetMarket its copyright interest
in certain wine programming content and contracts, including an agreement with

delivered to Arome, Ltd., its 7.5% promissory note in the amount of $300,000
payable from 10% of the proceeds of any financing in an amount greater than
$1,500,000 completed after January 29,1999. The note is secured by certain

236,500 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $.01 per share. Of
this total, 185,667 options were vested but had not been exercised, Pursuant to

options were exchanged were Mr. Steinhart, who held options to purchase 729,000
shares of the Company's common stock; Josh Dickman, who at the time of the
completion of the merger was an officer of the Company and who held options to

In January 1999, MCG Partners, Inc., a newly organized business consulting firm
("MCG"), agreed with GourmetMarket and the Company that MCG would assume certain
obligations of Marblehead Capital Group, Inc., a firm which had provided
guidance to the Company in connection with their proposed merger. Pursuant to
that agreement, the Company issued MCG 100,000 shares of the Company's preferred
stock in payment of the par value thereof and, upon the completion of the merger
on January 29,1999, paid MCG a $100,000 merger completion fee. MCG; consequently
converted all of its shares of preferred stock into 6,030,000 shares of common
stock. At the time of the merger, the Company entered into a consulting
agreement with MCG pursuant to which it appointed MCG its exclusive agent
through December 1, 2004 to provide financial advisory services to the Company.
As compensation for its services, MCG was paid a monthly fee of $6,000 and will
be entitled to receive a fee of 5% of the fair market value of any merger or
acquisition arranged for the Company through MCG, together with a fee of ten

fee of $10,000.

On February 1, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with Rainmaker
Capital, LLC ("Rainmaker"), a company owned by Eric Ott, who was then a director
of the Company, pursuant to which Rainmaker agreed to provide investment banking
services to the Company in consideration of a retainer of $5,000 per month for a
period of twelve months ending February 1, 2000. Under the agreement Rainmaker
was entitled to a fee of five percent (5%) of proceeds of any debt or equity
financing, or merger or acquisition, for which it is responsible. Also on or
about February 1, 1999, the Company paid Rainmaker an advisory fee of $50,000
for its advice to GourmetMarket in connection with the merger.

In March 1999 the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to JNG &
Associates, Inc., for cash of $50,000. JNG is wholly-owned by Joshua Greenberg,
the stepson of C. Lawrence Rutstein, who was then a director of the Company and
a principal shareholder, officer and director of MCG. In May 1999 the Company
executed a revolving loan note with JNG & Associates, Inc., in the maximum
principal amount of $1,000,000. The Company had borrowed $405,000 from JNG
through December 31, 1999, pursuant to this note.

In February 1999 the Company acquired Travlang.com, an Internet travel-related
service company. On January 14, 2000, the Company subsequently sold its
Travlang.com assets to iiGroup, Inc., a related party, for consideration of
250,000 common shares of iiGroup, Inc., $146,000 in cash, and the assumption of
$104,000 of Travlang.com liabilities.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Shareholders and
Board of Directors
GourmetMarket.Com, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of GourmetMarket.com, Inc. as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the related statements of operations,
stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of GourmetMarket.com, Inc. as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the results of its operations and cash flows for
the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
GourmetMarket.com, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in notes
1, 2 and 4 to the financial statements, on January 15, 2001 the Company ceased
its internet sales operations, and terminated substantially all its employees.
The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, and has working
capital and total stockholders' deficiencies at December 31, 2000. Furthermore,
at December 31, 2000 the Company could not demonstrate that it had sufficient
liquidity to meet its routine operating costs for the next year. These
circumstances raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as
a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are described in
note 4. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business and basis of presentation

Gourmet Market.com was formed on November 5, 1997. On January 29, 1999,
GourmetMarket.com, (a California corporation), was acquired by Sterling
Partners, Inc., a non-operating Delaware corporation, in a reverse merger, which
was accounted for as a recapitalization in accordance with APB 16. At the same
time Sterling Partners, Inc. changed its name to GourmetMarket.Com, Inc. (a
Delaware corporation) and emerged as the surviving Corporation.


The Company was an online marketplace specializing in the sale of premium
culinary products, including wine, chocolates, cigars, and kitchenware. On
January 15, 2000 the Company ceased its internet sales operations and terminated
all of its employees, except the President. The Company currently operates no
active business. It is working on settling its trade debts, converting its
long-term debt to equity, and transferring its internet traffic to a debtor in
settlement of a liability. The Company formerly owned and operated a web site,
GourmetMarket.com. The Company is focusing on interactive marketing.


Cash equivalents

Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments readily convertible
to known amounts of cash and so near their maturity that they present
insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates.

Inventory

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the
first-in, first-out method.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost. The Company provides depreciation
for financial purposes over the estimated useful lives of fixed assets using the
straight-line method. Upon retirement or sale of fixed assets, their net book
value is removed from the accounts and the difference between such net book
value and proceeds received is recorded in income. Expenditures for maintenance
repairs are charged to expense; renewals and improvements are capitalized.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes income, and expenses when the merchandise is shipped.

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)


1.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes according to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" which requires an
asset and liability approach to financial accounting for income taxes. Deferred
income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for the difference
between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that
will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future, based on enacted tax
laws and 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. Income tax
expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period, plus or minus the
change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Net income (loss) per share


Net loss per share is determined by dividing net loss by the weighted average
common shares outstanding. The outstanding common shares reflect the
reorganization of Gourmet Market.com. Common stock equivalents, consisting of
stock options in fiscal 2000 and 1999, were antidilutive and were not included
in the calculation of net loss per share. The Company has adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" which
simplifies the accounting for earnings per share by presenting basic earnings
per share including only outstanding common stock and diluted earnings per share
including the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents. The Company's basic
and diluted earnings per share are the same, as the Company's common stock
equivalents are dilutive.


Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions.
These assumptions, if not realized, could affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The Company's financial instruments, primarily consisting of cash and cash
equivalents, investments, accounts receivable, note receivable form related
party, accounts payable, and long-term debt, approximate fair value due to their
short-term nature or interest rates that approximate market.

1.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of
long lived assets, including associated intangibles, may be impaired, an
evaluation of recoverability is performed by comparing the estimated future
undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset to the assets carrying amount
to determine if a write down to market value or discounted cash flows is
required.

Stock Based Compensation

Statement of Financial Accounting Standard no. 123 " Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation" is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995.
Statement No. 123 provides companies with a choice to follow the provisions of
No. 123 in the determination of stock based compensation expense or to continue
with the provisions of APB 25, " Accounting for Stock issued to employees". The
Company has elected to follow APB 25 and will provide pro forma disclosure as
required by statement No.123 in the notes to the financial statements.

Restatements

The 1999 financial statements have been restated to conform to the 2000
financial statement presentation.


2.       DISCONTINUING OPERATIONS

terminated all employees. The net liabilities that will be disposed consist of

3.       ASSETS DISPOSED - TRAVLANG

On February 8, 1999, the Company acquired all the contracts, rights and interest
in Travlang.com, an up to date repository on the internet of information
regarding travel, and travel related agendas for traveling both domestically and
abroad. Travlang.com includes language translations for travelers in more than
70 languages, real-time currency exchanges, and data bases of hotels in more
than 120 countries from which travelers can book reservations.

Travlang's content rights and interest were acquired for $95,817 in cash and
notes payable, and 62,500 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $1.00
per share, totaling $158,317.

On January 14, 2000 the Company disposed of Travlang. The terms of the purchase
were 250,000 shares of iiGroup, Inc. (a related party) and $250,000 payable as
follows: approximately $146,000 in cash and the assumption of approximately
$104,000 in liabilities. The disposal of Travlang resulted in a gain to the
Company of $ 273,400.

4.       MANAGEMENT'S PLAN


The Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from
operations since inception, as a result of the development of its business
operations. These losses have been funded primarily with the issuance of common
stock and various debt instruments throughout 1999 and 2000. On January 15, 2001
the Company ceased its internet sales operations and terminated all of its
employees. The Company currently operates no active business. It is working on
settling its trade debts, converting its long-term debt to equity, and
transferring its internet traffic to a debtor in settlement of a liability. As a
result of these factors, there exists substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.

In the past, management has been able to raise the capital necessary to continue
the implementation of the Company's plan. However, the Company's ability to
successfully implement its plan to identify alternative businesses for the
Company is dependent upon a number of factors, some of which are beyond its
control. There can be no assurance that the Company's operating results or
financial condition will improve in fiscal year 2001.



5.       INVESTMENTS

Investments at December 31, 2000 consist of 250,000 shares of iiGroup Inc.
common stock, valued at market. These shares collateralized a note payable in
the amount of $100,000, entered into by the Company in October 2000, with a
related party. In January 2001 the Company surrendered these shares in
satisfaction of the obligation plus unpaid loan fees and interest. See (Note 7)
