Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

         The statements contained in this Annual Report that are not historical
are 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, including statements regarding the expectations,
beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. Without limiting the
foregoing, the words "anticipates," "believes," "expects," "intends," "may" and
"plans" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. The Company intends that all forward-looking statements be subject
to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. These forward-looking statements reflect the Company's views as of the
date they are made with respect to future events, but are subject to many risks
and uncertainties, which could cause the actual results of the Company to differ
materially from any future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. These statements speak only as of the date hereof. We are under no
duty to update, and do not undertake to update, any of the forward-looking
statements contained in this Annual Report to conform them to actual results or
to changes in our expectations.

ITEM 1.  Business.

         The Company was formed in Delaware on April 23, 1996. On January 3,
2001, the Board of Directors of MM Companies, Inc., f/k/a musicmaker.com,
Inc. (as used herein, the "Company" or "we"), as then constituted voted
unanimously to cease its operations as a provider of customized music CD
compilations and music digital downloads. The Company had sold its products
primarily over the Internet through its website and through marketing partners,
strategic alliances and direct mail-order promotions. The then-Board concluded
at that time that this business no longer represented a viable alternative to
provide maximum value to the Company's stockholders. In connection with the
Company's cessation of its Internet-based custom CD-marketing business, the
Company sold all of the Company's remaining furniture and equipment.

         Thereafter, the Board determined to seek to pursue one or more
potential acquisitions of other publicly traded or privately held companies or
significant interests in such companies, with a view to refocusing the Company's
strategic direction. While the Company continues to actively examine certain
potential acquisition transactions and believes that attractive opportunities
exist, there can be no assurance whether, when, or on what terms the Company
will complete any such acquisition.

         On February 25, 2002 the Board of Directors authorized a stock
repurchase program for up to 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
Shares of common stock are expected to be purchased from time to time in open
market transactions and privately negotiated transactions, subject to
availability and price, prevailing market and business conditions and regulatory
compliance.

         On June 11, 2002, we changed our name from musicmaker.com, Inc. to MM
Companies, Inc.

         The Company's financial statements as of December 31, 2003, have been
prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets
and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of
business. At December 31, 2003, the Company had $3,811,826 in cash and cash
equivalents and $687,170 in precious metals (see below) compared to $575,454 and
$4,028,115, respectively, at December 31, 2002. Substantially all of the
Company's remaining cash was provided by our initial public offering of common
stock in 1999. The Company expects to experience negative cash flows for the
foreseeable future. The Company has not yet settled on an operating plan, and
can give no assurance that the Company's existing cash and cash equivalents are
sufficient to fund the Company's current operations and satisfy its obligations.
The Company believes these obligations will primarily relate to costs associated
with our operation as a public company (legal, accounting, insurance, etc.), and
expenses related to any new business activities which may be undertaken by the
Company. As noted above, the Company continues to pursue the potential
acquisition of other businesses. However, the Company has not consummated any
significant transactions to date and the Company's business prospects remain
uncertain. To the extent that management of the Company moves forward on any
alternative strategy, such strategy may have an impact on the Company's
liquidity.

         On August 9, 2002, in connection with the review of the Company's
contested solicitation of proxies for the annual shareholders meeting of another
public company, the Company received a letter from the SEC's Division of
Investment Management inquiring as to the possible status of the Company as an
unregistered "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company
Act of 1940. The Company believes that, consistent with the discussion of
Investment Company Act matters in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2001, the Company may have become an inadvertent investment
company during 2001. The Company has relied on the "transient investment
company" exemption from the applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act
contained in Rule 3a-2 thereunder, which provides for a one year "safe harbor".

         Accordingly, prior to the expiration of such one-year safe harbor
period, on August 29, 2002, the Company acquired ownership of gold bullion for a
purchase price of $4,028,115. As of December 31, 2002, the Company borrowed
approximately $1.9 million secured by that gold bullion, which was included in
other current liabilities on the Company's balance sheet, which has since been
repaid. As a result of such acquisition, "investment securities" held by the
Company no longer exceed 40% of its total assets (excluding cash and government
securities), and the Company believes that it is no longer within the relevant
definition of "investment company" for purposes of the Investment Company Act.
Notwithstanding the fact that the Company purchased such gold bullion and
therefore "investment securities" held by the Company no longer exceed 40% of
its total assets (excluding cash and government securities), the Company could
be deemed an investment company under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment
Company Act, which covers companies that are engaged primarily in the business
of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities. As of December 31, 2003 the
Company has reduced its gold position to $687,170.

         The Company believes that, at all relevant times prior to the date of
filing of this annual report, either it has not been an investment company as
defined by the Investment Company Act, or it has been a "transient investment
company" exempt from the Investment Company Act. The Company believes that
because of the character of its assets it does not currently fall within the
definition of an investment company.

         The Company is seeking to acquire one or more operating businesses in
the near term which the Company believes would, among other things, eliminate
any concern that it may be deemed to be primarily engaged in the business of
investing, reinvesting or trading in securities. A determination by the SEC that
the Company is in fact an unregistered investment company could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business. An unregistered investment company can
be prohibited from, among other things, engaging in interstate commerce.

         As of December 31, 2003, the Company had no employees other than its
President and Chief Executive Officer, and its Chief Financial Officer.

         During the period August 2001 to March 2002, the Company, along with
certain other entities (the "Reporting Entities"), purchased 1,448,535 shares of
L Q Corporation, Inc. (f/k/a Liquid Audio, Inc.) ("L Q") at a cost of
approximately $2.20 per share, representing an approximately 6.9% ownership of L
Q. On February 22, 2002, the Reporting Entities offered to acquire L Q for $2.50
per share in cash, which was ultimately rejected by L Q's management. On May 3,
2002, the Company, on behalf of the Reporting Entities, filed a lawsuit against
L Q in Delaware Chancery Court. The suit alleged that L Q had failed to hold a
timely annual meeting. On May 14, 2002, L Q announced that it had scheduled its
2002 annual meeting for July 1, 2002. The Company notified L Q of its intention
to nominate Seymour Holtzman and James Mitarotonda as Class III directors.

         L Q thereafter announced that it agreed to enter into a reverse merger
with Alliance Entertainment Corp. and in addition it would conduct a self tender
offer for up to 10 million shares of its common stock for $3.00 per share. On
July 16, 2002, the Company wrote to L Q expressing its opposition to the
proposed transactions. As an alternative the Company proposed that L Q
distribute $3.00 per share to all L Q shareholders.

         At the September 26, 2002, Annual Shareholders Meeting of L Q, the
Company's nominees were elected to the Board. Subsequently, the CEO resigned and
L Q terminated its merger agreement with Alliance Entertainment and suspended
its self tender offer. On January 24, 2003, L Q announced that it had sold its
digital music fulfillment business to Anderson Merchandisers for $3.2 million.
On January 29, 2003, L Q distributed $2.50 per share, in cash, to all of its
shareholders. The Company understands that L Q is currently exploring options
for the disposition and/or use of its remaining assets.

(1)      The decline in total assets in 2003 of $2.7 million from 2002 was
         primarily due to the repayment of $1.9 million previously borrowed to
         fund the lease termination settlement with respect to our previously
         leased premises in Reston, Virginia. Additionally, we paid
         approximately $500,000 to settle certain litigation with Koch
         Entertainment and the Profile Publishing.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS.

         The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements contained in Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

                              Results of Operations

Year Ended December 31, 2003 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2002

         NET SALES. The Company's net sales were zero for the years ended
December 31, 2003 and 2002. This is attributable to the Company's cessation of
its Internet-based custom CD marketing business while the Board continues to
pursue the potential acquisition of other businesses.

          COST OF SALES. Cost of sales was zero for the years ended December 31,
2003 and 2002. This is attributable to the Company's cessation of its
Internet-based custom CD marketing business while the Board continues to pursue
the potential acquisition of other businesses.

         SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES. Sales and marketing expenses were zero
for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. This is attributable to the
Company's cessation of its Internet-based custom CD marketing business while the
Board continues to pursue the potential acquisition of other businesses.

         OPERATING AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. Operating and development expenses
were zero for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. This is attributable
to the Company's cessation of its Internet-based custom CD marketing business
while the Board continues to pursue the potential acquisition of other
businesses.

         GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. During the twelve month period
ended December 31, 2003 general and administration expenses, primarily
consisted of legal and professional fees and related expenses for accounting and
administrative personnel, as well as other general corporate expenses. General
and administrative expenses were $877,325 for the year ended December 31, 2003,
compared to $(74,521) for the year ended December 31, 2002. General and
administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2002 were $(74,521)
caused by the reversal of accruals made in previous accounting periods in the
amount of $1,639,472. Of this amount, $289,469 was attributable to the lease
termination for the Company's Wiehle Avenue location and $294,804 was
attributable to the lease termination for the Company's office and production
facility at Parkridge Boulevard in Reston, Virginia. The remaining $1,055,199
was due to the reversal of previously accrued accounts payable and general
liabilities.

         DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE. Depreciation and amortization
expense was zero for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. This is
attributable to the Company's cessation of its Internet-based custom CD
marketing business while the Board continues to pursue the potential acquisition
of other businesses.

         REORGANIZATION COSTS. Reorganization costs were zero for the years
ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. This is attributable to the Company's
cessation of its Internet-based custom CD marketing business while the Board
continues to pursue the potential acquisition of other businesses. The Company
does not expect to incur any significant additional reorganization costs in the
foreseeable future.

         INTEREST AND DIVIDEND INCOME. Interest and dividend income was $238,943
for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared to $105,907 for the year ended
December 31, 2002. The decline in interest income reflects the general decline
in interest rates. Dividend income included $190,318 in 2003 related to the cash
distribution from the Company's investment in LQ Corporation Inc.

         OTHER INCOME. Other income was $903,253 for the year ended December 31,
2003, compared to $42,691 for the year ended December 31, 2002. Other income in
2003 consisted of realized gains on the sale of gold bullion of $236,000, a gain
relating to the cash distribution from the Company's investment in a limited
liability company holding shares of common stock of Dynabazaar Inc. of $220,000
and a recovery of a note receivable settlement of $250,000.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

         STOCK SPLIT. On June 11, 2002, the Company's Board of Directors and a
majority of the stockholders authorized a one for one hundred reverse stock
split followed by a one hundred for one forward stock split. On July 12, 2002,
the Company commenced effecting the approved reverse/forward split. Fractional
shares were purchased by the Company at $1.35 per share. As of December 31,
2003, we have purchased 69,438 shares.

Year Ended December 31, 2002 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2001

         NET SALES. Net sales include the selling price of products sold by the
Company, net of returns, as well as sales promotions and discounts. The
Company's net sales were zero for the year ended December 31, 2002, compared to
$3,201,412 for the year ended December 31, 2001. This decrease is attributable
to the Company's cessation of its Internet-based custom CD marketing business
while the Board continues to pursue the potential acquisition of other
businesses.

        COST OF SALES. Cost of sales principally consists of content acquisition
costs, production and shipping costs, and credit card receipt processing costs.
Content acquisition costs include royalty advances that were paid upon signing
of royalty agreements with independent music labels and royalty charges that
were assessed on a per music track usage basis. Production costs include jewel
cases, CD trays and CD inserts. Cost of sales was zero for year ended December
31, 2002, compared to $1,925,333 for year ended December 31, 2001.

         SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES. Sales and Marketing expenses were zero
for the year ended December 31, 2002, as compared to $ (647,865) for the year
ended December 31, 2001. The decrease is attributable to the Company's cessation
of its internet-based custom CD marketing business while the Board continues to
pursue the potential acquisition of other businesses. The negative sales and
marketing expenses included in the year ended December 31, 2001 are due to the
reversal of sales and marketing expenses which had been previously accrued as an
expense by the Company.

        OPERATING AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. Operating and development expenses
were zero for the year ended December 31, 2002, as compared to $85,444 for the
year ended December 31, 2001.

         GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative
expenses primarily consist of legal and professional fees, payroll costs and
related expenses for accounting and administrative personnel, and other expenses
associated with general and corporate functions. Also included in general and
administrative expenses are expenses associated with the issuance of warrants to
various consultants. For the year ended December 31, 2002, general and
administrative expenses were $(74,521) compared to $8,005,124 for the year ended
December 31, 2001. Expenses were reduced to $(74,521) by the reversal of
accruals made in previous accounting periods in the amount of $1,639,472. Of
this amount, $289,469 is attributable to the lease termination for the Company's
Wiehle Avenue location and $294,804 is attributable to the lease termination for
the Company's office and production facility of Parkridge Boulevard in Restom,
Virginia. The remaining $1,055,199 is due to the reversal of previously accrued
accounts payable and general liabilities. General and administrative expense for
the year ended December 31, 2001 included $3,237,302 in rent accruals, a
$104,000 accrual for future payments under certain licensing agreements, legal
and other professional fees of $907,253, and $600,000 in insurance premiums.

         DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE. Depreciation and amortization
expenses were zero for the year ended December 31, 2002, as compared to
$2,976,630 for the year ended December 31, 2001. Depreciation decreased as a
result of the sale of all of the Company's remaining equipment and furniture
during the second quarter of 2001.

         REORGANIZATION COSTS, Reorganization costs were zero for the year
ending December 31, 2002, compared to $2,087,745 for the year ending December
31, 2001. The reorganization costs incurred in 2001 were a result of the Company
suspending its website and terminating its workforce with the exception of the
president and chief executive officer, and chief financial officer. The Company
paid severance payments to its terminated employees in varying amounts based on
the length of service to the Company. The Company does not expect to incur any
significant additional reorganization costs in the foreseeable future.

                                      -8-

         INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE. Interest income was $105,907 for the year
ended December 31, 2002, compared to $528,116 for the year ended December 31,
2001. The decline in interest income reflects the decline in cash balances
available for investment.

         OTHER INCOME. Other income was $42,691 for the year ending December 31,
2002, compared to $27,898 for the year ending December 31, 2001. Other income
was derived from the sale of the Company's remaining furniture and equipment.

         EXTRAORDINARY GAIN. In May 2001, the Company settled its obligation of
$171,429 to the Music Maker Relief Fund for $20,000 and recorded an
extraordinary gain on the early extinguishments of debt of $151,429.
Extraordinary gain in 2002 was zero.

                          Critical Accounting Policies

         The SEC has recently issued Financial Reporting Release No. 60,
"Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies"
("FRR 60"), suggesting companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on
those accounting policies considered most critical. FRR 60 considers an
accounting policy to be critical if it is important to the Company's financial
condition and results, and requires significant judgment and estimates on the
part of management in its application. The Company believes the following
represent the critical accounting policies of the Company as contemplated by FRR
60 based on our current state of operations. For a summary of all of the
Company's significant accounting policies, including the critical accounting
policies discussed below, see Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial
statements based on the Company's current activities.

                  Investments in Available-for-Sale Securities

         The Company purchased marketable equity securities, which it has
classified, for accounting purposes, as available-for-sale securities.
Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value with unrealized holding
gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity as
accumulated other comprehensive income. The fair market value of
available-for-sale securities is based on quoted market prices from nationally
recognized exchanges. The Company also assesses whether any impairment of the
fair value of an available-for-sale security below its cost basis is other than
temporary and might require a write down through earnings.

                            Operating Lease Accruals

         The Company has vacated possession of its premises subject to operating
leases. This should be read in conjunction with the statements contained in Item
2, Part 1, of this Form 10-K.

                         Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Net Cash provided by operating activities was $982,832 for the year
ended December 31, 2003. The cash provided resulted from the Company's sale of
gold bullion of $3,340,945 and a reduction in prepaid expenses and other current
assets of $1,058,483, offset by a reduction in accounts payable and accrued
expenses of $963,165 and other current liabilities of $904,500. Cash provided by
investing activities was from the liquidation of an investment in a limited
liability company (JHC Investment Partners LLC) created to purchase shares in
Dynabazaar, Inc. (f/k/a Fairmarket, Inc.) ("Dynabazaar") of $806,608 and the
distribution from L Q of which $1,446,932 was recorded as a return on
investment.

         On February 25, 2002, the Board of Directors authorized a stock
repurchase program for up to 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
Shares of common stock are expected to be purchased from time to time in open
market transactions and privately negotiated transactions, subject to
availability and price, prevailing market and business conditions, and
regulatory compliance.

         On February 27, 2002, the Company, along with certain other entities
(together with the Company, the "Reporting Entities"), was party to a joint
filing on Schedule 13D reporting the purchase of 3,485,500 shares of common
stock of Dynabazaar Inc. (NASDAQ: FAIM) (such amount representing approximately
12.0% of Dynabazaar's outstanding common stock). Of the total amount of
outstanding common stock reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting
Entities, the Company may be deemed to account for 627,390 shares of such common
stock (such amount representing approximately 3.0% of Dynabazaar's outstanding
common stock). The Reporting Entities include, in addition to the Company,
Barington Companies Equity Partners, L.P., an affiliate of Barington Capital
Group, L.P., a major shareholder of the Company, and Jewelcor Management, Inc.,
an entity whose Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is Seymour Holtzman, the
Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors.

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

         On May 8, 2002, Dynabazaar appointed Joseph Wright, Jr., to
Dynabazaar's Board of Directors. Mr. Wright is also a director of the Company.
Mr. Wright was appointed to the Board of Dynabazaar pursuant to an agreement
that Dynabazaar entered into with the Reporting Entities. The agreement provides
that the Reporting Entities will not proceed with their proposed proxy contest
and limits actions that the group may take prior to January 22, 2005 with
respect to their ownership of Dynabazaar common stock. In addition, James
Mitarotonda, President and Chief Executive Officer of MM Companies, Inc., was
granted observer status to Dynabazaar's Board.

         In November 2003, Dynabazaar distributed $1.30 per share in cash to all
of its shareholders. Upon the dissolution of JHC Investment Partners LLC (the
entity created to purchase stock in Dynabazaar), the Company received cash of
$806,608 and 627,390 shares of Dynabazaar common stock, and recorded a gain on
investment in partnership of $417,626.

         At December 31, 2003, the Company had $3,811,826 in cash and cash
equivalents compared to $575,454 at December 31, 2002. Substantially all of the
Company's remaining cash was provided by our initial public offering of common
stock in 1999. The Company expects to experience negative cash flows for the
foreseeable future. The Company has not yet settled on an operating plan, and
can give no assurance that the Company's existing cash and cash equivalents are
sufficient to fund the Company's current operations and satisfy its obligations.
The Company believes these obligations will primarily relate to costs associated
with the operation as a public company (legal, accounting, insurance, etc.), as
well as the expenses associated with any new business activities which may be
undertaken by the Company.

         To the extent that management of the Company moves forward on its
alternative strategies, such strategies may have a significant impact on our
liquidity.

         On August 9, 2002, in connection with the review of the Company's
contested solicitation of proxies for the annual shareholders meeting of another
public company, the Company received a letter from the SEC's Division of
Investment Management inquiring as to the possible status of the Company as an
unregistered "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company
Act of 1940. The Company believes that, consistent with the discussion of
Investment Company Act matters in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2001, the Company may have become an inadvertent investment
company during 2001. The Company has relied on the "transient investment
company" exemption from the applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act
contained in Rule 3a-2 thereunder, which provides for a one-year "safe harbor."

         Accordingly, prior to the expiration of such one-year safe harbor
period, on August 29, 2002, the Company acquired ownership of gold bullion for a
purchase price of $4,028,115. As of December 31, 2002, the Company borrowed
approximately $1.9 million secured by that gold bullion, which was included in
other current liabilities on the Company's balance sheet and has since been
repaid. As of December 31, 2003 the Company has reduced its gold position to
$687,170. As a result of such acquisition, "investment securities" held by the
Company no longer exceed 40% of its total assets (excluding cash and government
securities), and the Company believes that it is no longer within the relevant
definition of "investment company" for purposes of the Investment Company Act.
Notwithstanding the fact that the Company purchased gold bullion, and
"investment securities" held by the Company no longer exceed 40% of its total
assets (excluding cash and government securities), the Company could be deemed
to be an investment company under Section 3(a)(1)(A) of the Investment Company
Act, which covers companies that are engaged primarily in the business of
investing, reinvesting or trading in securities.

         The Company believes that, at all relevant times prior to the date of
filing of this Annual Report, either it has not been an investment company as
defined in the Investment Company Act or it has been a "transient investment
company" exempt from the Investment Company Act. The Company believes that
because of the character of its assets it does not currently fall within the
definition of an investment company.

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

         The Company is seeking to acquire one or more operating businesses in
the near term, which the Company believes would, among other things, eliminate
any concern that it may be deemed to be primarily engaged in the business of
investing, reinvesting or trading in securities. A determination by the SEC that
the Company is in fact an unregistered investment company could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business. An unregistered investment company can
be prohibited from, among other things, engaging in interstate commerce.

                      Factors That May Affect Our Business,
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Our common stock has been delisted from the Nasdaq and is currently subject to
"penny stock" rules.

         Since our common stock is not listed on a national securities exchange
or listed on a qualified automated quotation system, and does not qualify for
any available exceptions, it is subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act,
which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell
such securities to persons other than established customers and "accredited
investors." (Accredited investors are, generally, individuals with a net worth
in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 or $300,000
together with their spouses.)

         For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a
special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the
purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to sale. For any
transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery,
prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by
the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be
made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the
registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally,
monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information
for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in
penny stock. Consequently, such Rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to
sell the Company's securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell
any of the Company's securities in the secondary market.

Concentration of stock ownership may delay or prevent a change of control.

         Our directors, executive officers and principal stockholders and their
affiliates own a significant percentage of our outstanding common stock. As a
result, these stockholders may have the ability to influence the outcome of
corporate actions requiring stockholder approval. This concentration of
ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of
the Company.

Certain alternatives being considered by the Board, if they occur, could have a
substantially dilutive effect on your investment.

         The Company's Board of Directors has determined to seek to pursue one
or more potential acquisitions. See Item 1, "Business." Such acquisitions could
involve the issuance of additional equity in the Company or a future business
combination involving the Company. Depending on the terms of any such event, you
could experience a substantially dilutive effect on your investment.

Our stockholders may have difficulty in recovering monetary damages from
directors.

         Our certificate of incorporation contains a provision, which eliminates
personal liability of our directors for monetary damages to be paid to us and
our stockholders for some breaches of fiduciary duties. As a result of this
provision, our stockholders may be unable to recover monetary damages against
our directors for their actions that constitute breaches of fiduciary duties,
negligence or gross negligence. Inclusion of this provision in our certificate
of incorporation may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against
our directors and may discourage lawsuits against our directors for breach of
their duty of care even though some stockholder claims might have been
successful and benefited stockholders.

We may be deemed to be an investment company and subjected to related
restrictions

         The regulatory scope of the federal Investment Company Act, which was
enacted principally for the purpose of regulating vehicles for pooled
investments in securities, extends generally to companies engaged primarily in
the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in
securities. The Investment Company Act may, however, also be deemed to be
applicable to companies which do not intend to be characterized as an investment
company but which, nevertheless, may be deemed to be within the definitional
scope of certain provisions of the Investment Company Act. We do not intend and
do not consider the Company to be an investment company and our anticipated
activities going forward are expected to involve acquiring one or more related
or other businesses. If we were deemed to be an investment company, our
activities would be restricted, including restrictions on the nature of our
investments and the issuance or repurchase of securities. We might also be
required to register under the Investment Company Act and file reports, or adopt
corporate governance rules including significant reporting, record keeping,
voting, proxy, disclosure and other rules and regulations. In the event we were
deemed to be an investment company, our failure to satisfy such regulatory
requirements have a material adverse effect on us.

Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

         The majority of our sales and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars
and as a result, foreign exchange gains and losses to date have been
insignificant. While the Company may effect some transactions in foreign
currencies, it does not expect that any related gains or losses will be
significant. The Company has not engaged in foreign currency hedging to date.

                         Report of Independent Auditors

Board of Directors and Stockholders MM Companies, Inc.

         We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of MM Companies, Inc.
(the "Company"), as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statements of
operations, stockholders' equity 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 auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit 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 MM Companies, Inc.
as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

         The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, certain
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. Management's plans regarding these matters are also described in
Note 1. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                         Report of Independent Auditors

Board of Directors and Stockholders Musicmaker.com, Inc.

         We have audited the accompanying statements of operations,
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2001. Our
audit also included the financial statement schedule for the year ended December
31, 2001 listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our
audit.

         We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

         In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the results of operations of Musicmaker.com,
Inc and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our
opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation
to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

         The accompanying financial statements and schedule have been prepared
assuming that Musicmaker.com, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As
described more fully in Note 1, on January 3, 2001, Musicmaker.com, Inc. ceased
operation of its Internet-based custom compact disc marketing business and has
no current substantive business operations. The Board of Directors continues to
review alternatives for the Company, but has not consummated any significant
transactions to date. As a result, the Company's business prospects remain
uncertain. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern. The financial statements and schedule do not
include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the
recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications
of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                               MM COMPANIES, INC.
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                      FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003

1.       ORGANIZATION

THE COMPANY

On January 3, 2001, the Board of Directors of MM Companies, Inc. (the
"Company"), as then constituted, voted unanimously to cease the operations of
its Internet-based custom CD-marketing business. The then-Board concluded at
that time that the business no longer represented a viable alternative to
provide maximum value to the Company's stockholders.

         The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of
assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of
business. At December 31, 2003, the Company had $3,811,826 in cash and cash
equivalents and $687,170 in precious metals (see note 3) compared to $575,454
and $4,028,115, respectively, at December 31, 2002. The Company expects to
experience negative cash flows for the foreseeable future. The Company has not
generated any revenue in the last two years. The Company has not yet settled on
an operating plan, and can give no assurance that the Company's existing cash
and cash equivalents are sufficient to fund the Company's current operations and
satisfy its obligations. The Company believes these obligations will primarily
relate to costs associated with the operation as a public company (legal,
accounting, insurance, etc.), as well as the expenses associated with any new
business activities, which may be undertaken by the Company. These factors,
among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue operations as
a going concern. No adjustment has been made in the accompanying financial
statements to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities which
could result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The
Company continues to consider future alternatives, including the possible
acquisition of other businesses. However, the Company has not consummated any
significant transactions to date and the Company's business prospects remain
uncertain. To the extent that management of the Company moves forward on any
alternative strategy, such strategy may have an impact on the Company's
liquidity.

2.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

         The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with an original
maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. A
portion of the Company's cash balances is held in an account managed by
Barington Capital Group, L.P. ("Barington"). Barington and an affiliate are
members of BCG Strategic Investors, which together with certain entities and
individuals beneficially owns approximately 40% of the Company's Common Stock.

INVESTMENTS

         Securities classified for accounting purposes as available-for-sale
securities consist of marketable equity securities not classified as either
held-to-maturity or trading securities. Available-for-sale securities are stated
at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported as a separate
component of stockholders' equity as accumulated other comprehensive income.
Dividends on marketable equity securities are recognized in income when
declared. Realized gains and losses and declines in value deemed to be
other-than-temporary are included in other income (expense). The cost basis for
realized gains and losses is determined on the basis of the actual cost of the
securities sold.

         As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had available-for-sale
investments with a fair market value of $397,125 and $1,611,874, respectively
and a cost basis of $207,609 and $1,447,502 respectively. The gross unrealized
gains for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 of $25,144, $50,283
and $114,089, have been recorded as a separate component of stockholders' equity
as accumulated other comprehensive income. On January 29, 2003 L Q Corporation,
Inc. (f/k/a Liquid Audio, Inc.), distributed $2.50 per share in cash to all of
its shareholders, of which $1,446,932 was recorded as a return of investment and
$190,318 was recorded as dividend income from cash distribution. In November
2003, the Company received 627,390 shares of Dynabazzar, Inc. (f/k/a Fairmarket,
Inc.) common stock as a result of the dissolution of JHC Investment Partners,
LLC ("JHC")(see footnote 6).

         As of December 31, 2003 and 2002 the Company held the following equity
positions:

                                                      2003              2002

     L Q Corporation, Inc. (OTC.BB: LQID)        654,900 shares   654,900 shares

     Dynabazzar, Inc. (NASDAQ: FAIM)             627,890 shares       500 shares


         All investments are held in an account managed by Barington.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

         At each balance sheet date, management determines whether any property
and equipment or any other assets have been impaired based on the criteria
established in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144.

Accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets and long-lived assets to be
disposed of:

         The Company evaluates the carrying amount of long-lived assets to be
held and used, including property and equipment and intangible assets, when
events and circumstances warrant such a review. The carrying amount of a
long-lived asset is considered impaired when the estimated undiscounted cash
flow from each asset is less than its carrying amount. In that event, the
Company records a loss equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds
the fair market value of the long-lived asset. Assets to be disposed of are
measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. For
the year ended December 31, 2001 the Company recorded an impairment allowance of
$2,276,731. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, all property and equipment had a
carrying value of zero.

FAIR VALUE, OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

         The Fair Value of the Company's assets and liabilities which qualify as
financial instruments under SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures About Fair Value of
Financial Instruments," approximate the carrying amounts presented in the
accompany balance sheets.

INCOME TAXES

         The Company complies with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes",
which requires an asset and liability approach to financial reporting for income
taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences
between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that
will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, 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 income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

         In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure," which amended SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." This Statement provides alternative
methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based compensation. It also amends the disclosure
provisions to require more prominent disclosure about the effects on reported
net income (loss) of an entity's accounting policy decisions with respect to
stock-based employee compensation. The provisions of this Statement are to be
applied to financial statements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002.
As permitted by the Statement, the Company does not plan to adopt the fair value
recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 at this time. However, the Company has
adopted the disclosure provisions of the Statement.

                                      -20-
<PAGE>

         The Company accounts for its stock-based employee compensation plans
under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, under which no compensation
cost has been recognized in the accompanying statements of operations, as all
options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to or in excess of
the market value of the underlying common stock at the date of grant (see Note
9).

         Had compensation cost for these options been determined consistent with
the fair value method provided by SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income (loss)
and net income (loss) per common share would have been the following pro forma

NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

         The Company complies with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." SFAS No.
128 requires dual presentation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share for
all periods presented. Basic income (loss) per share excludes dilution and is
computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted
income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities
or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common
stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then share in the income
of the Company. Diluted net loss per share excludes common equivalent shares,
unexercised stock options and warrants as the computation would be
anti-dilutive. Unexercised stock options and warrants to purchase 91,892 and
392,734 shares of the Company's common stock as of December 31, 2003 and 2002
were excluded in the computation of diluted earning per share because the
options' and warrants' exercise price was greater than the average market price
of the Company's common stock. For the year ended December 31, 2001, since the
effects of the outstanding options and warrants are anti-dilutive, it has been
excluded from the computation of net loss per common share.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

         Net sales were recognized at the time merchandise was shipped to
customers for custom CDs and upon execution of orders for digitally downloaded
songs.

SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS

         In February 2001, the Company fulfilled its contract with the
Pepsi-Cola Company. As a result, the Company recognized the remaining $3,100,779
of revenue under the contract, which represented approximately 97% of the
Company's total sales for the year ended December 31, 2001.

COST OF SALES

         In accordance with SFAS No. 50, "Financial Reporting in the Record and
Music Industry," royalty advances and minimum guarantees to music labels were
recorded as an asset if the past performance and current popularity of the music
to which the advance related provided a sound basis for estimating the probable
future recoupment of such advances. Advances were then expensed as subsequent
royalties were earned. Any portion of advances that subsequently appeared not to
be fully recoverable from future royalties were charged to expense during the
period in which the loss became evident.

         The Company included in cost of sales royalty expenses incurred based
on usage per music track. Royalty charges resulted in cost of sales, related to
music content, of zero, zero and $13,647 for the years ended December 31, 2003,
2002 and 2001 respectively. The Company has included in cost of sales royalty
advances that were paid upon signing of certain initial royalty agreements with
independent music labels, due to management's expectations of minimal revenues
expected during the one-year period following the signing of the contracts. The
Company may be required to make additional advances upon the anniversaries of
the signing of these initial contracts and expenses them as incurred.

OPERATING AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

         Operating and development costs relating to the Company's proprietary
custom CD compilation software technology were expensed as incurred. The Company
has incurred research and development costs of approximately zero, zero and,
$85,444 in the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Operating and development costs also include network and non-capitalized website
costs.

ADVERTISING COSTS

         The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. The Company
incurred costs related to advertising of approximately zero, zero and
$(1,167,000) for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

USE OF ESTIMATES

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that 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.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

         Certain amounts in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform
with the current period presentation.

3.       PRECIOUS METAL

         In August 2002, the Company acquired 12,900 ounces of gold bullion for
a purchase price of $4,028,115. During 2003, the Company sold an aggregate of
10,700 ounces of gold bullion with a cost basis of $3,340,945 for approximately
$3,887,000. Approximately $1.9 million of the 2003 proceeds were used to pay off
its outstanding liability, which was secured by the gold bullion as of
December 31, 2002. As of December 31, 2003 the Company owns 2,200 ounces of gold
bullion.

4.       NOTE RECEIVABLE

         In connection with a royalty agreement signed on October 11, 1999, the
Company advanced $500,000 to an independent record label, in return for which
the Company received a note receivable that was due on April 11, 2000. In 2000,
the Company established a reserve for the entire receivable and pursued legal
action to collect the note. In January 2004 the parties agreed to a settlement
agreement whereby the Company would receive $50,000 due on each of May 1, 2004
and May 1, 2006 and $6,522 per month, for twenty-three months, commencing June
1, 2004 through May 1, 2006.

5.       PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

         Prepaid expenses and other current assets at December 31, 2003 and 2002
were $162,273 and $1,220,756, respectively. A portion of the balance at
December 31, 2003 is comprised of approximately $153,000 in prepaid insurance
for the renewed Directors and Officers Liability Policy. This amount is being
expensed monthly over the life of the policy. The December 31, 2002 amount is
comprised primarily of costs associated with previous litigation and proxy
solicitation related to L Q Corporation, Inc. which was subsequently paid in
2003.

6.       INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIP

         On February 27, 2002, the Company along with certain other entities
(together with the Company, the "Reporting Entities"), was party to a joint
filing on Schedule 13D reporting the purchase of 3,485,500 shares of common
stock of Dynabazaar Inc. (NASDAQ: FAIM) (such amount representing approximately
12.0% of Dynabazaar's outstanding common stock). Of the total amount of
outstanding common stock reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting
Entities, the Company may be deemed to account for 627,390 shares of such common
stock (such amount representing approximately 3.0% of Dynabazaar's outstanding
common stock). This represents the Company's investment of $596,021 in JHC
Investment Partners, LLC ("JHC") for the purchase of 627,390 shares of
Dynabazaar common stock. JHC is the entity created to purchase 3,485,500 shares
of Dynabazaar common stock. The Company has accounted for this investment as
cost. The Reporting Entities include, in addition to the Company, Barington
Companies Equity Partners, L.P., an affiliate of Barington and a major
shareholder of the Company, and Jewelcor Management, Inc., an entity whose
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is Seymour Holtzman, the Chairman of the
Company's Board of Directors.

         On May 8, 2002, Dynabazaar appointed Joseph Wright, Jr., to
Dynabazaar's Board of Directors. Mr. Wright is also a director of MM Companies,
Inc. Mr. Wright was appointed to the Board of Dynabazaar pursuant to an
agreement that Dynabazaar entered into with the Reporting Entities. The
agreement provides that the Reporting Entities will not proceed with their
proposed proxy contest and limit actions that the group may take with respect to
their ownership of Dynabazaar common stock prior to January 22, 2005. In
addition, James Mitarotonda, President and Chief Executive Officer of MM
Companies, Inc., was granted observer status to Dynabazaar's Board.

         On December 31, 2002, the Company issued a stock appreciation right for
185,000 shares to each of James Mitarotonda and Seymour Holtzman. The stock
appreciation right provides that it may be exercised for cash in an amount equal
to the excess value, if any, by which the market value of the shares on the date
of exercise exceeds $1.852, as adjusted from time to time. The stock
appreciation right is exercisable immediately and expires on December 31, 2007.
No compensation expense has been recorded during the years ended December 31,
2003 and 2002, as the Company's stock price was lower than the stock
appreciation right's exercise price.

11.      INCOME TAXES

         At December 31, 2003, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards
of $90.4 million and capital loss carry-forwards of $1.2 million. The timing and
manner in which the remaining operating loss carry-forwards may be utilized in
any year will be limited to the Company's ability to generate future earnings
and by limitations imposed due to change in ownership. Current net operating
loss carry-forwards will expire principally in the years 2021 through 2022. The
capital loss carry-forwards will expire in 2005. As the Company has not
generated any revenues during 2003 and no assurance can be made of future
earnings, a valuation allowance in the amount of the deferred tax asset has been
recorded. The change in the valuation allowance was $14.4 million in 2003 and
$946,876 in 2002. There was no current or deferred provision for income taxes
for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 or 2001.

                                      -25-
<PAGE>

         The total net operating loss carry-forwards ("NOL") of $90.4 million
has been reduced, for financial reporting purposes, by $54.4 million, which is
unlikely ever to be utilized due to the application of the Section 382
provisions. The remainder of the NOL also likely might effectively be obviated
if certain future events were to occur that would invoke additional Section 382
provisions. Future use of the NOLs therefore is extremely speculative and should
not be presumed absent extensive analysis of the complex Section 382 provisions.

         Net deferred tax assets consist of:

         The Company has not paid any income taxes since its inception.

         The provision for income taxes differed from the amount computed by
applying the U.S. federal statutory rate to the income (loss) before income
taxes due to the effects of the following:

12.      INFRASTRUCTURE REORGANIZATION

         On January 3, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors as then
constituted voted unanimously to cease the operations of its Internet-based
custom CD-marketing business. As a result, pending the present Board's ongoing
review of alternatives for the Company going forward, the Company suspended its
website, bought out several equipment leases and terminated 44 employees which
represented 83% of the work force. Severance packages, totaling approximately
$1,714,000, were granted to these employees based on length of service with the
Company. Additionally, the Company accrued the severance costs of approximately
$374,000 related to the remaining employees. All amounts related to this charge
have been paid as of December 31, 2001.

13.      RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         In connection with the Company's cessation of its Internet-based custom
CD-marketing business, effective as of July 1, 2001, the Company relocated its
principal executive offices to 888 Seventh Avenue, 17th Floor, New York, New
York 10019, an office maintained by Barington Capital Group, L.P. ("Barington"),
a limited partnership whose general partner is a corporation of which James
Mitarotonda is Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. Barington and an
affiliate are members, and Mr. Mitarotonda is one of the managing members, of
BCG Strategic Investors LLC. Mr. Mitarotonda is also the President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company.

         Effective July 1, 2001, Barington has made available to the Company the
services of a Barington employee to serve as the Chief Financial Officer and
Secretary of the Company, and began providing the Company with the assistance of
certain other Barington employees and the use of office space and administrative
services provided by Barington. In consideration of the foregoing, the Company
pays Barington a $21,500 monthly fee. This fee includes the salary and benefit
costs of the two Barington employees who devote 80% and 70% of their time to the
Company, in addition to the provision for occupancy, computer, telephone, fax,
Internet access, office supplies and stationary, and printing expenses. In
addition, the Company pays $5,000 per month, each, to Mr. Mitarotonda and Mr.
Holtzman for services performed. For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002,
the Company expensed approximately $378,000 and $328,000, respectively in
payments to related parties, which are included in general and administrative
expenses.

         On February 15, 2001, the Company announced that the Board of Directors
had approved a cash distribution in the amount of $3.00 per share to the holders
of record of common stock as of March 1, 2001, the record date. The distribution
totaled $9,941,988, and was paid in March 9, 2001. The distribution included
$82,500 paid in error to a former stockholder of the Company whose stock was not
returned to the Company until after the establishment of the record date for the
distribution, which amount was subsequently returned by the former stockholder,
leading the Company to record a net distribution of $9,859,488 as a reduction of
stockholders' equity.

ITEM 9   CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
         FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

None.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

         Within 90 days prior to the filing date of this Annual Report on Form
10-K, the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the
Company's current disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have
been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date
of the evaluation by the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

         The design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part
upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no
assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

             Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

         Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), requires the Company's officers and directors, and persons who
own more than 10% of the Company's Common Stock to file reports of ownership and
changes in ownership of the Company's Common Stock with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Based solely on a review of the copies of such reports and
written representations from the reporting persons that no other reports were
required, the Company believes that during the fiscal year ended December 31,
2003, its executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders filed
on a timely basis all reports due under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

         On July 30, 2003 the Company changed from a stock/option based
compensation plan to a cash based compensation plan. Directors are entitled to
receive $7,500 on being appointed and $7,500 as an annual retainer upon the
anniversary of their appointment. Each director is entitled to a payment of
$1,000 for each board or committee meeting he attends; the chairperson of a

                 Employment Agreements and Consulting Agreements

         Effective July 1, 2001, Barington Capital Group, L.P. has made
available to the Company the services of a Barington employee to serve as the
chief financial officer and secretary of the Company, and began providing the
Company with the assistance of certain other Barington employees and the use of
office space and administrative services provided by Barington. In consideration
of the foregoing, the Company pays Barington a $5,000 monthly fee. Effective May
1, 2002, the Board of Directors approved an increase of the fee to Barington to
$23,500 per month later reduced to $21,500. This increase recognizes the salary
and benefits cost of the two Barington employees who devote 80% and 70% of their
time to the Company. It includes the provision for occupancy, computer,
telephone, fax, Internet access, office supplies and stationary and printing
expenses. In addition, the Company pays $5,000 per month, each, to Mr.
Mitarotonda and Mr. Holtzman for services performed in their capacity as
President and Chairman of the Board, respectively.

          Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation.

         On July 30, 2003, the Company created a new Compensation Committee
comprised of Jesse Choper as chairman and William Fox and Joseph Wright as
members. Prior to that time the Board of Directors had undertaken to review the
performance of the Company's management and recommend and approve the
compensation of and the issuance of stock options to executive officers and
employees under the Company's stock option plan.

         Report of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

         General Compensation Policy. The fundamental policy of the Board is to
provide the Company's executive officers with competitive compensation
opportunities based upon their contribution to the Company's development and
financial success and their personal performance. The compensation package for
each executive officer is comprised of three elements: (i) base salary, (ii)
bonus and (iii) equity incentive awards.

                                      -31-
<PAGE>

         Base Salary. The Board strives to offer salaries to its executive
officers, which are competitive with salaries offered by companies of similar
size and capitalization in the Company's industry. Base salaries are reviewed on
an annual basis and are subject to adjustment based upon the individual's
contribution to the Company and changes in salary levels offered by comparable
companies. Executive officers' salaries are determined by the Chief Executive
Officer, based on information from various sources, and approved by the Board of
Directors.

         Bonuses. The amount of awards granted to the executive officers are
contingent upon the Company achieving certain performance goals established by
the Board of Directors. For executive officers, awards are also contingent on
the achievement of individual performance objectives. Target and minimum amounts
of bonuses for each executive officer are set annually by the Board of Directors
and are specifically weighted for identified financial, management, strategic
and operational goals.

         Equity Incentives. The Board of Directors believes that employee equity
ownership is highly motivating, provides a major incentive to employees to build
stockholder value and serves to align the interests of employees with the
interests of the Company's stockholders. In determining the amount of equity
compensation to be awarded to executive officers in any fiscal year, the Board
considers the position of the officer, the current stock ownership of the
officer, the number of shares which continue to be subject to vesting under
outstanding options and the expected future contribution of the officer to the
Company's performance, giving primary weight to the officer's position and his
expected future contributions. In addition, the Board of Directors compares the
stock ownership and options held by each officer with the other officer's equity
positions and each officer's experience and value to the Company.

         CEO Compensation. Commencing July 1, 2001, Mr. Mitarotonda received
$5,000 per month for services rendered in his capacity as President and Chief
Executive Officer. See "Summary Compensation Table" above.

                             Audit Committee Matters

         The purpose of the audit committee is to assist our Board of Directors
in the oversight of the integrity of the financial statements of the Company,
the Companys' compliance with legal and regulatory matters, the independent
auditors' qualifications and independence, and the performance of the Company's
independent auditors. The primary responsibilities of the audit committee are
set forth in its charter, and include various matters with respect to the
oversight of the Company's accounting and financial reporting process and audits
of the financial statements of the Company on behalf of our Board of Directors.

         The current members of the Company's audit committee are William J.
Fox, Jesse Choper and Joseph Wright, Jr. The Company's board has determined that
Mr. Fox is an audit committee financial expert and that he is independent as
defined in Item 7(d)(B)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Exchange Act.

ITEM 12  SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED
         STOCKHOLDERS MATTERS

         Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

         The following table sets forth certain information known to us with
respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 24, 2004, by
(1) all persons who are beneficial owners of 5% or more of our common stock, (2)
each director and nominee, (3) the Named Officers in the Summary Compensation
Table above, and (4) all directors and executive officers as a group.

         The number of shares beneficially owned is determined under rules
promulgated by the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of
beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under those rules, beneficial
ownership includes any shares as to which the individual has sole or shared
voting power or investment power and also any shares which the individual has
the right to acquire within 60 days of March 24, 2004, through the exercise or
conversion of any stock option, convertible security, warrant or other right.
Including those shares in the tables does not, however, constitute an admission
that the named stockholder is a direct or indirect beneficial owner of those
shares. Unless otherwise indicated, each person or entity named in the table has
sole voting power and investment power (or shares that power with that person's
spouse) with respect to all shares of capital stock listed as owned by that
person or entity. Except as otherwise indicated in the table, the address of the
stockholders listed below is that of the Company's principal executive office.
Directors or executive officers not included in the table below do not hold
Company securities.

                    Indemnification of Directors and Officers

         The Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation Charter
and Amended Bylaws provide that it shall indemnify all of its directors and
officers to the full extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Under these provisions, any director or officer who, in his or her capacity as
such, is made or threatened to be made a party to any suit or proceeding, may be
indemnified if the Board determines the director or officer acted in good faith
and in a manner the director reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to,
the best interests of the Company. The Charter, Amended Bylaws, and Delaware law
further provide that indemnification is not exclusive of any other rights to
which directors and officers may be entitled under our Charter, Amended Bylaws,
any agreement, any vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or
otherwise.

                                      -35-

trust, or other enterprise, against any expense, liability, or loss incurred by
that person in the capacity he served for the Company or arising out of his
