ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

HISTORY

      English Language Learning and Instruction System, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), was formed in January 1997 under the name Lone
Oak, Inc. Lone Oak, Inc. is the successor-by-merger of B&E Securities
Management, Inc., a Maryland corporation incorporated in January 1969.  The
merger with B&E Securities Management Company, Inc. was accomplished through a
stock for stock transaction in which all the common shares of B&E were
cancelled and Lone Oak, Inc. common shares were issued.  The transaction was
accounted for as a reverse merger (recapitalization).

      B&E Securities Management, Inc. was inactive from around 1971 until its
merger with and into Lone Oak, Inc. in February 1997.  Lone Oak, Inc. had no
significant operations since its inception until July 1999.  In April 1999,
Lone Oak, Inc. sold its wholly-owned subsidiary, D&E Flight Simulators, Inc.
for $5,000.  D&E Flight Simulators, Inc. was a flight simulator equipment
developer which was acquired by B&E Securities Management Company, Inc. on
January 12, 1998.  On July 27, 1999, Lone Oak, Inc. acquired all of the issued
and outstanding shares of common stock of Politics.com, Inc., a Nevada
corporation ("Politics.com-Nevada") (following which Lone Oak, Inc. changed
its name to Politics.com, Inc.).  The transaction was accounted for as a
reverse acquisition, with Politics-Nevada being the acquirer and Lone Oak the
acquired Company.  Politics.com's business consists solely of the business
conducted by its wholly-owned subsidiary, Politics.com-Nevada.

      Politics.com is a development stage Internet company that intends to be
a global Internet media company, offering a branded network of information,
communication, entertainment, community, and commerce services with a common
theme of politics.

      Politics.com draws users to its Web site by providing a one-stop
destination which enables users to identify, select and access resources,
services, content and information on the World Wide Web (the "Web"), all of
which are related to politics.  The Web site offers news, information and
entertainment search and directory service, activism and participation
communities, and a retail store.

      On January 31, 2001, a special meeting of the shareholders of
Politics.com, Inc. was held in Tempe, Arizona.  The shareholders of
Politics.com, Inc. (i) approved the spin off of its ownership interest in New
Politics.com, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("New Poco"), to Politics.com, Inc.'s
shareholders of record as of January 5, 2001 (the "Spin Off"); (ii) approved a
one for ten reverse split of its common stock (the "Reverse Split"); (iii)
approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Reorganization
Agreement") between Politics.com, Inc. and Computer Assisted Learning and
Instruction, Inc., a Utah corporation ("CALI"), whereby CALI was merged with
and into Politics.com, Inc. and Politics.com, Inc. changed its name to English
Language Learning and Instruction System, Inc. ("ELLIS") and the shareholders
of CALI received 11,550,000 post Reverse Split shares of ELLIS; and (iv)
elected Francis R. Otto, Timothy D. Otto, Kimber B. Jensen, and Janet M. Otto
to the Board of Directors. At the time of the Reorganization, CALI had a total
of five shareholders.

      During 1999 and 2000, CALI spent $29,147 and $217,120 respectively on
research and development.  None of these costs were born directly by
customers.

GENERAL

      Following the Reorganization and spin-off of Politics.com, the Company's
only continuing operations consist of the historical business operations of
CALI.  This business is described below.

      The Company is a software development and marketing company based in
Provo, Utah.  The Company's business is developing and marketing computer
software programs and supporting written materials to teach English as a
Second Language (ESL).

      The Company"s signature product is "ELLIS" (English Language Learning
and Instruction System), a series of 20 interactive multi-media software
programs designed to teach English.  ELLIS combines text, translation,
full-motion video and digitized sound, graphics and animation into a virtual
language learning experience for learners of all proficiency levels and native
speakers of fifty-eight (58) languages.  ELLIS is designed to be effective in
all teaching of English as a Second Language ("ESL"), English as a Foreign
Language ("EFL"), and as an indispensable support to Teachers of English to
Speakers of Other Languages ("TOEFL").

      All ELLIS components commence with high-quality video dialogues
featuring native English speakers.  The dialogues allow for and encourage
student interaction and participation in the lesson (for example,
role-playing, voice recording and pronunciation comparison).  Students may
adjust the speed of the dialogue, isolate phrases to clarify pronunciation,
compare their own speech with the native speakers', or research vocabulary,
grammar and cultural primers all without leaving the lesson.  The dialogues
lead to interactive online exercises, and eventually to written exercises in
companion workbooks.  ELLIS contains several thousand hours of instruction
and, because of its ability to recognize and process a wide range of student
responses, a virtually infinite number of personalized student responses and
learning situations.  All ELLIS programs operate on Windows and Macintosh
platforms.  The Company owns all proprietary and worldwide distribution rights
to ELLIS.  The Company does not anticipate incorporating any software or other
technology that would diminish the company's position in ELLIS.

      The most popular suite of ELLIS programs is the ELLIS Academic Suite,
which includes three lesson-based applications (ELLIS Intro, ELLIS Middle
Mastery and ELLIS Senior Mastery) with over 1,000 hours of interactive English
instruction.  The Academic Suite also includes ELLIS Master Pronunciation and
ELLIS Placement, an adaptive testing component that identifies an individual
learner's needs.  Additionally, the Company offers the ELLIS Business Series,
which consists of five programs offering English training for learners in
virtually any industry or level of English proficiency.

THE MARKET OPPORTUNITY

      The market for the ELLIS product line is, simply, anyone in the entire
world who needs to become more proficient in his understanding and use of the
English language.  As such, this includes students, immigrants to
English-speaking countries, business people, Internet users, and teachers of
English in any country, irrespective of their culture or language of origin.

      TESOL (Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages) estimates
that there are currently more than two billion people studying English as a
second or foreign language. Competence in English is central in much
government-funded education in virtually every industrialized nation.
Additionally, English has become the de facto lingua franca of the Internet
which is potentially how the world may do much of its future business and
conduct its communication.  And English is the accepted standard language for
the business person.

      The Company intends to become a pervasive and dominant presence in this
market.  The Company believes that it has established a reputation for product
excellence and effectiveness in the U.S. market, and it will now move to
develop a comparable market presence internationally.  Starting with
concentration in countries of highest potential (such as Brazil, Korea, China,
Japan and Mexico), the Company intends to demonstrate the power and
effectiveness of the ELLIS products and to open and seize unprecedented
business opportunities in every targeted country.

      As an example of this approach, the Company has concentrated on Brazil,
a country of 160 million where more than 20 million people are enrolled in
15,000 private language schools.  These Brazilian students spend (according to
Brazil's authoritative VEJA magazine) more than $100 per month each on English
instruction.  ELLIS is now selling a Brazilian version of ELLIS - ELLIS Access
- selling at $200 per set.  ELLIS Access has also sold more than one thousand
copies in Korea since its May 2000 release.

PRODUCTS

      The most popular suite of ELLIS programs is the ELLIS Academic Suite,
which includes three lesson-based applications (ELLIS Intro, ELLIS Middle
Mastery and ELLIS Senior Mastery) with over 1,000 hours of interactive English
instruction.  The Academic Suite also includes ELLIS Master Pronunciation and
ELLIS Placement, an adaptive testing component that identifies an individual
learner's needs.  Additionally, the Company offers the ELLIS Business Series,
which consists of five programs offering English training for learners in
virtually any industry or level of English proficiency.

      The ELLIS product has received consistently high praise from all areas
for its quality, content, and effectiveness.  In addition to the awards that
it has received from software developers, it has been acclaimed in articles by
a variety of educational leaders particularly those whose responsibility has
been to review, test and implement efficient solutions to allow their
organizations and institutions to satisfy mandated levels of English literacy
and competence, or who are faced with harsh practical realities of teaching
English in environments or schools that are predominantly non-English
speaking.

      In most instances, educational institutions which use ELLIS adopt it as
their standard source for English teaching, and report favorably on its
effectiveness. ELLIS has also been adopted by third-party organizations that
sell English-language training services, such as Berlitz, Kaplan Educational
Centers and Yazigi International (Brazil).

      The complete line of ELLIS products has been developed fully by the
Company and the Company is the sole owner of the ELLIS software.  All ELLIS
distributors are working under expired contracts, with the exception of one
distributor in the U.S. Mid-West, who continues to have certain distribution
rights.  With this particular exception, the Company has all worldwide
distribution rights.

      The Company is currently facing an important transition associated with
the launch of the ELLIS Kids product.  In addition, the Company anticipates
the completion and delivery to market over the next 12 months of the Language
Arts program for ELLIS Kids.

      Throughout the world, the elementary school market is one of the fastest
growing segments for English language learning. In China, there are over
970,000 elementary schools alone.  In the United States, an average district
breaks down into the following schools 5 high schools, 9 middle schools and 14
elementary schools.  In the past, none of the ELLIS products were applicable
for the K-6 audience and our penetration into the middle schools was minimal.
The Company's new Kids programs (Levels 0, 1 and 2) are designed specifically
for this younger audience, thereby more than doubling the size of the
Company's potential client base.  According to federal distribution data,
elementary schools also receive the most funding. This new program is also
dual platform, running in both the Macintosh and Windows environments.

      The Company's business model and sales and marketing plans will not
change due to the release of Kids, but will be extended for this new market.
While the Company will produce targeted campaigns directly to the K-6
audience, the Kids product just becomes another offering in the Company's
product library.

      The Company is also heavily engaged in the preparation of additional
languages for the further roll-out of ELLIS Access.  ELLIS Access is currently
being test-marketed in Brazil and Korea, so only Portuguese and Korean are
available in Native Language Guides.  The Company expects to expand this
program in the following markets in 2002: Spain, Mexico, China and the United
Kingdom.

      The Company foresees a significant growth in the number and complexity
of English for Specific Purposes projects, to be conducted on behalf of major
U.S. and international corporations and organizations.  The development of
these projects is expected to become more efficient as the Company completes
an underlying set of standard modules and programs which can be modified and
re-applied readily to meet the specific needs of additional customers.

SALES METHODS

      The primary change in organizational direction that the Company has
undertaken with the availability of external capital is the augmentation of
its present sales and distribution model, wherein it previously relied almost
exclusively on third-party agents and distributors for product sales.  The
Company currently contracts with ten institutional third party contractors
under this model.  While some of these agents have been extremely successful,
several have not achieved the potential sales levels that ELLIS should
command.  Further, the sales commissions payable to such distributors (up to
as high as 50% of revenue) had become a major factor limiting the Company's
profitability and growth.  The Company believes that it will be more effective
both in increasing sales and in enhancing profitability by enhancing this
sales model with one in which the Company will control its own branches and
sales personnel, and in which it will sell its ELLIS products directly to all
clients not serviced by its contracted distributors.  The Company anticipates
that, even with the start-up costs and additional ongoing expenses incurred as
a result of this change, it will materially improve its profit performance.
It is anticipated that the cost of commission on sales will be reduced to an
estimated 20-25% of sales revenue from the current level of approximately 50%
of sales revenue.

      The Company has already implemented the most critical phase of this
change in its sales model the restructuring of contracts of the Company's
independent sales representatives.  This was completed in March of 2001 with
respect to all independent sales representatives except the Company's
representative in the Midwestern United States, which representative currently
has distribution rights in 10 states at a 50% commission rate.

      Phase two of this model is also underway hiring Company sales managers
in key territories around the world. While this phase occurs over the next 18
months, the Company has already opened sales offices in the following
geographic areas: Maryland/DC, New Jersey, Arizona, Mexico, China, Ecuador,
Chile, Spain and Seattle/Vancouver. Phase three of this model supporting these
offices with sales programs and marketing initiatives has also begun in these
same markets.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

      The Company has engaged counsel and is involved in early discussions
regarding the feasibility of seeking patent protection over certain aspects of
the ELLIS technology.

      The Company has acquired trademark protection for the English Language
Learning and Instruction System (ELLIS) name, and for both of the ELLIS Middle
Mastery and ELLIS Senior Mastery products.  It has acquired registered
trademark protection for ELLIS Master Pronunciation, and is seeking trademarks
for the ELLIS Intro, ELLIS Placement, the ELLIS Business Series, and ELLIS
Kids products.

      None of the ELLIS products uses or depends on a third-party intellectual
property which would limit the Company's rights to the products, and the
Company is not required to pay any license or other fees to third parties for
the distribution of the ELLIS products.  The Company does not anticipate
requiring the incorporation of any software or technologies that would
diminish its proprietary position with regard to the ELLIS products.  All of
the Company's employees and contractors are required to sign appropriate
confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements on commencement of employment,
and are also required to assign all rights or ownership resulting from their
work on the ELLIS products to the Company.  No present or former staff has any
property rights to the ELLIS products.

COMPETITORS AND COMPETITIVE FACTORS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS

      While the Company knows of no competitors that currently offer
interactive English training software of the same caliber as ELLIS, the
Company will compete in its market with numerous other businesses that provide
similar products.  These products cost less than ELLIS, and these products are
often the primary ESL option for individual users or institutions that do not
have the resources to afford the ELLIS line of products or necessary companion
software.  The Company's focus on targeting ELLIS toward institutional, rather
than individual purchasers makes it possible for a competitor to establish
itself at the simplest level by merely offering ESL software priced for the
individual learner.  Additionally, ELLIS will compete within the institutional
market with more traditional English instructional methods such as textbooks
and audiotapes.  While the Company's management feels that ELLIS is superior
to more traditional instructional methods and even other ESL software
currently available, management further realizes that ELLIS' pricing structure
prevents its introduction to the personal ESL learner market on a significant
scale.  Though the Company believes that the institutions and agencies to
which it typically sells ELLIS will generally select ELLIS over other ESL
applications to service their constituencies' English instructional needs, the
Company has no control over the purchase decisions that these institutions,
agencies or individual learners might make relative to their ESL software
needs, real or perceived.  In short, the Company cannot assume that
prospective purchasers will always pay more money for a superior product.  The
Company believes that its ability to compete effectively in the marketplace
will be enhanced by the experience of its management personnel, ELLIS'
superior quality and effectiveness, and its ability to offer a wide range of
services to its potential customers.  There can be no assurance, however, if
one or more of its competitors with greater financial resources than presently
possessed by the Company will not offer additional services to its customers
at rates equal to or more favorable than those offered by the Company.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

      The Company is not currently subject to direct regulation by any
governmental agency, other than regulations applicable to businesses
generally.  However, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may
be adopted with respect to the Internet and e-commerce, covering issues such
as user privacy, pricing and characteristics and quality of products and
services.  The Company cannot predict the impact, if any, that future
regulation or regulatory changes may have on its business.

EMPLOYEES

      As of November 28, 2001, the Company had 58 employees, of which 47 were
full-time and 11 were part-time.



ITEM 2.  DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.

      The Company currently rents approximately 5,647 square feet of office
space at a total cost of $6,839 per month for its principal executive offices
located at 3520 North University Avenue, Suite 275, Provo, Utah 84604.  These
leases all expire in January 2003.  The Company believes that its properties
are in good condition and satisfactory for its operations.


ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

      The Company is not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.


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

9,604,379 votes in favor of each of the above matters out of a total of
12,010,180 shares outstanding as of January 31, 2001.  There were no opposing

      The Company has also agreed to cause a "shelf" registration to become
effective on or before March 20, 2002 covering the shares purchased by Camden

      In addition, holders of Preferred Stock have the right to (a) two demand
registrations with minimum gross proceeds of $2,000,000 each; (b) unlimited
registrations on Form S-3 with minimum gross proceeds of $500,000 (limited to
one per six month period); and (c) unlimited "piggy-back" registration rights

      The Company has filed a registration statement on Form S-3 to register a
total of 3,107,741 shares of the Company's common stock with the SEC.  The SEC
has indicated to the Company that it has no further comment with respect to

S-3 effective at such time as the Company has received indication from the SEC
that the SEC has no further comment on the Company's periodic filings that are
currently being reviewed by the SEC.

      The Company also intends to file an additional registration statement on
Form S-3 in the very near future registering an additional 588,555 shares of
the Company's common stock as well as the stock purchased by the Camden
purchasers described above. Sales by such shareholders under such Form S-3
will be restricted in the manners described above.

ITEM 6.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.

      The following discussion and analysis of the Company's and the Company's
predecessor's financial condition as of December 31, 2000 and the Company's
predecessor's results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999
should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and
notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-KSB.  All information
contained in this Item 6 reflects only the Company's continuing operations.

Results of Operations

      The Company's current operations consist of operations historically
conducted by Computer Assisted Learning and Instruction System, Inc.

Comparison of Fiscal 2000 and 1999

      Revenues.  Revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 were
$3,845,113, compared to $2,388,995 for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1999.  This increase was due primarily to geographic expansion domestically
and internationally.

      Cost of Good Sold.  Cost of goods sold for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2000 were approximately $63,000, compared to approximately
$26,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.  This increase was due
primarily to increased sales and new product releases, requiring the
manufacture of additional product.

      General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative
expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 were $2,869,216, compared
to $2,038,320 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.  This increase was
due primarily to the development of the Company's British product and the
Ellis Kids line of products, and expansion of the Company's marketing efforts.

      Depreciation and Amortization.  Depreciation and amortization costs for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 were $64,794, compared to $18,859 for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.  This increase was due primarily to
the increase in the Company's capital expenditures associated with increased
development and marketing expansion, and reclassification of the depreciation
schedule of certain of the Company's assets.

Foreign Currency

      The Company conducts almost all of its international business in United
States dollars.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The Company has funded its cash requirements primarily through cash
flows from its operating activities.  The Company has, however, raised net
proceeds of $4,307,375 in the first nine months of fiscal 2001 in private
offerings of common and preferred stock and warrants.  The Company has
established a revolving line of credit from a commercial bank in the amount of
$250,000, of which the entire $250,000 remains available.  The Company had
also taken out a $100,000 two-year loan from a commercial bank, which was paid
off in September, 2001.

      The Company is currently incurring cash expenses in the amount of
approximately $530,041 per month, of which fixed costs account for
approximately $278,185.  The Company anticipates capital expenditures will be
approximately $200,000 for the current fiscal year.

      The Company is not aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that
have or are reasonably likely to have an impact on the Company's short-term or
long-term liquidity.  Given the Company's current cash position, current and
historical cash flows, the Company believes that it has sufficient cash to
continue operations for the foreseeable future.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
---------------------------------

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
English Language Learning and Instruction System, Inc.
(A Delaware Corporation)
(F/K/A Politics.com, Inc.)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of English
Language Learning and Instruction System, Inc. and subsidiaries (F/K/A
Politics.com, Inc.) (A Development Stage Enterprise) ("the Company") as of
December 31, 2000 and the related consolidated statements of operations,
changes in stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the year then ended, the
period March 23, 1999 (Inception) to December 31, 1999, and the period March
23, 1999 (Inception) to December 31, 2000.   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 consolidated financial position of English Language
Learning and Instruction System, Inc., and Subsidiaries as of December 31,
2000, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows
for the year then ended, the period March 23, 1999 (Inception) to December 31,
1999 and the period March 23, 1999 (Inception) to December 31, 2000 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements, the Company has incurred substantial losses since
inception and has a working capital deficiency at December 31, 2000.  These
factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regard to these matters
are described in Note 1.  The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation
         --------------------------------------

         On July 27, 1999, Loan Oak, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Lone
Oak"), acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of
Policitcs.com, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Politics-Nevada").  In connection
with this transaction, Lone Oak issued 700,000 shares of its common stock
directly to the stockholders of Politics-Nevada in exchange for all of
Politics-Nevada's 700,000 issued and outstanding common shares. The exchange
resulted in Politics-Nevada's stockholders holding a larger portion of the
voting rights of Lone Oak than was held after the acquisition by the persons
who were Lone Oak's stockholders prior to the acquisition.  Since the private
company (Politics-Nevada) issued common stock for the net monetary assets of
Lone Oak, the transaction has been treated for accounting purposes as a
recapitalization. with Politics-Nevada being the acquirer and Lone Oak being
the acquired company.  Consequently, only the historical operations of
Politics-Nevada are presented for periods through July 27, 1999.  As a result
of the acquisition, Politics-Nevada became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lone
Oak.  In connection with this transaction, Lone Oak changed its name to
Politics.com, Inc., a Delaware Corporation ("Politics-Delaware").

         Politics-Nevada was incorporated on March 23, 1999 in the State of
Nevada.  Politics-Nevada is a development stage enterprise that intended to be
a global Internet media company, offering a branded network of information,
communication, entertainment, community and commerce services with a common
theme of politics.  Politics-Nevada has selected December 31 as its fiscal
year.

         On November 30, 2000 Politics-Delaware established a wholly owned
subsidiary, New Politics.com, Inc. (a Nevada corporation) ("New-Politics"),
and entered into an asset purchase agreement whereby New Politics acquired
from Politics-Delaware all of Politics-Delaware's assets and liabilities.  As
consideration for acquiring the assets, New Politics assumed complete and sole
responsibility of and for all obligations associated with the assets acquired.

         The Company's ownership interest in New Politics will be distributed
to the Company's stockholders by issuing one share of New Politics for every
share of the Company held by such stockholders.  This "spin-off" was approved
by the Company's stockholders on January 31, 2001 (see Note 13).

         On December 15, 2000 Politics-Delaware entered into an Agreement and
Plan of Reorganization (the "Reorganization Agreement") by and between
Politics-Delaware and Computer Assisted Learning and Instruction, Inc., a Utah
corporation ("CALI").  The Reorganization Agreement contemplated a closing
date of January 31, 2001 (see Note 13).

         Under the terms of the Reorganization Agreement, the shareholders of
CALI shall exchange 100% of the outstanding common stock of CALI for
11,550,000 shares of Politics-Delaware common stock, representing
approximately 90.6% of Politics-Delaware issued and outstanding common stock.
CALI shall then be merged with and into Politics-Delaware and
Politics-Delaware shall change its name to English Language Learning and
Instruction System, Inc. ("ELLIS").  The exchange will result in CALI's
shareholders holding a larger portion of the voting rights of
Politics-Delaware than would be held after the merger by the persons who were
Politics-Delaware shareholders prior to the merger.  Accordingly, the
transaction will be treated for accounting purposes as a reverse merger
(purchase) with CALI being the acquirer and Politics-Delaware being the
acquired company.

          Politics-Delaware and its two wholly owned subsidiaries,
Politics-Nevada and New Politics are hereafter referred to as the "Company".

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        DECEMBER 31, 2000


NOTE 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation (Continued)
         --------------------------------------

         The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As of December 31, 2000
the Company was a development stage enterprise.  Politics-Delaware has
incurred losses of approximately $9,147,000 since inception and its current
liabilities exceed its current assets by approximately $2,363,000.  These
factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern.  Continuation of the Company is dependent on (i)
effecting the spin-off of New Politics, (ii) its exiting the development
stage, (iii) achieving sufficiently profitable operations and (iv) obtaining
adequate financing.  These financial statements do not reflect any adjustments
relating to the recoverability and classification of assets carrying amounts
and classification of liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as
a going concern.

         The Company has incurred substantial losses and has been funding its
operations through debt and equity financings.  The Company will need to
continue to fund its operations in this manner until it achieves sufficiently
profitable operations.  The Company plans to eliminate the going concern
uncertainty by effecting the spin-off of New Politics and raising additional
funds of approximately $1,000,000 through debt and/or equity financings from
private placements of the Company's securities to institutions, private
individuals and/or investment groups (see Note 13).  In addition, on January
31, 2001 the Company effected a reverse acquisition (see Note 13) and
anticipates that the acquired Company will generate profits.  The achievement
and/or success of these planned measures, however, cannot be determined at
this time.


NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
         ------------------------------------------

         Principals of Consolidation
         ---------------------------

         The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of English
Language Learning and Instruction System, Inc. (F/K/A Politics.com, Inc.,
Delaware) and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned.  All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in
consolidation.

         Use of Estimates
         ----------------

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

         Property and Equipment
         ----------------------

         Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated
depreciation.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over
the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which approximate 5 years.
Leasehold improvements were amortized over 3 years.

         Website Development Costs
         -------------------------

         Website development costs are expensed as incurred.

                        DECEMBER 31, 2000


NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
         ------------------------------------------

         Revenue Recognition
         -------------------

         The Company derives its revenues from the sale of targeted
advertising banners on web pages that are viewed by users of the Politics.com
web site.  These revenues are recognized as the services are performed.

         Intangibles
         -----------

         Intangibles consist of the cost of certain Internet Domain Names.
These intangibles are amortized using the straight-line method over periods
ranging from three to four years.  The Company periodically reviews intangible
assets to determine if any impairment exists based upon projected,
undiscounted net cash flows of the related business.  As of December 31, 2000,
in the opinion of management, there has been no material impairment.  As of
December 31, 2000, the Company owned the Internet Domain Name "politics.com".

         Income Taxes
         ------------

         The Company records deferred income taxes using the liability method.
Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized
for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the
financial statement and income tax bases of the Company's assets and
liabilities.  An allowance is recorded, based upon currently available
information, when it is more likely than not that any or all of the deferred
tax assets will not be realized.  The provision for income taxes includes
taxes currently payable, if any, plus the net change during the year in
deferred tax assets and liabilities recorded by the Company.

         Stock-Based Compensation
         ------------------------

         The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to its employees
using the intrinsic value method, which requires the recognition of
compensation expense over the vesting period of the option when the exercise
price of the stock option granted is less than the fair value of the
underlying common stock.  Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is
measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's
common stock as of the date of grant over the exercise price.  Additionally,
the Company provides pro forma disclosure of net loss and loss per share as if
the fair value method has been applied in measuring compensation expense for
stock options granted.  Stock-based compensation related to options granted to
non-employees is recognized using the fair value method.

         Loss Per Share
         ---------------

         The computation of loss per share of common stock is computed by
dividing net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during that period.

         Prior to the July 27, 1999 acquisition, the computation of net loss
per share is based on the weighted average number of outstanding common shares
of Politics-Nevada.  Following the acquisition, shares presented are adjusted
for the effect of the reverse acquisition.

         Because the Company is incurring losses, the effect of stock options
and warrants is antidilutive.  Accordingly, the Company's presentation of
diluted earnings per share is the same as that of basic earnings per share.

         Fair Value of Financial Instruments
         -----------------------------------

         The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, including
cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes and loans payable
approximated fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

         ----------------------

         Property and equipment consists of the following:

NOTE 7 - Stockholders' Deficit (Continued)
         ---------------------

         Common Stock (Continued)
         ------------

         On July 27, 1999, Lone Oak acquired all of the issued and outstanding
common stock of Politics-Nevada.  In connection with this transaction, Lone
Oak issued 700,000 shares of its common stock directly to the stockholders of
Politics-Nevada in exchange for all of Politics-Nevada's 700,000 issued and
outstanding common shares.  The exchange resulted in Politics-Nevada's
stockholders holding a larger portion of the voting rights of Lone Oak than
was held after the acquisition by the persons who were Lone Oak stockholders
prior to the acquisition.  As a result of the acquisition, Politics-Nevada
became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lone Oak.  In connection with the
transaction, Lone Oak changed its name to Politics.com, Inc., a Delaware
corporation.

         During August through October 1999 the Company sold 14,100 shares of
common stock to private investors for gross proceeds of $423,000 and net
proceeds of $363,000.

         In March 2000 the Company sold 50,000 shares of its Common Stock and
issued a warrant to purchase 70,000 shares of its Common Stock, at an exercise
price of $10 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $500,000.  The
warrants expire five years from the date of grant.  The subscription agreement
between the Company and the investor provides, among other things, in the
event that the Company in any non-public offering sells any Common Stock at a
price per share, or any warrant with an exercise price per share, that is less
than $10, then for no additional consideration, the Company shall immediately
transfer to the investor that number of shares of Common Stock of the Company
equal to the difference between (1) the number of shares which would have been
subscribed for under the subscription agreement, inclusive of the shares
underlying the warrant, at the lesser price per share of such subsequently
sold securities and (2) the number of the shares subscribed to under the
subscription agreement, inclusive of the shares underlying the warrant.  In
July 2000, the subscription agreement was amended to, among other things,
terminate the outstanding warrants to purchase 70,000 shares of Common Stock
of the Company.

         In June 2000 the Company issued 20,000 shares of common stock
pursuant to the terms of the March 2000 subscription agreement referred to
above that provided for the issuance of such shares in the event that the
Company did not have a registration statement effective by June 22, 2000 with
respect to the shares and Warrant shares issued in the private placement.  In
connection with the issuance, the Company recognized a charge of $162,500
representing the quoted market price of common stock at date of issuance.

         During June 2000 the Company granted non-qualified stock options
under the 2000 Plan to purchase an aggregate of 60,000 shares of common stock
at an exercise price of $.01 per share.  In connection with this grant, the
Company recognized a stock based compensation charge of $486,900.  The stock
option was exercised in June 2000 and the Company issued 60,000 shares of
common stock.

         On July 17, 2000 the Company granted non-qualified stock options
under the 2000 Plan to purchase 17,000 shares of common stock with an exercise
price of $.10 per share.  In connection with the grant, the Company recognized
a stock based compensation charge of $232,050.  These stock options were
exercised in July 2000.

         In July 2000 the Company issued 11,973 shares of common stock as
consideration for the cancellation of an aggregate of 81,293 common stock
purchase options.  In connection with the issuance of these shares, the
Company recognized a charge of $142,173 representing the quoted market price
of common stock at date of issuance.

         Common Stock (Continued)
         ------------

         In July 2000 the Company granted non-qualified stock options to two
individuals to purchase an aggregate of 7,000 shares of common stock with an
exercise price of $.10 per share.  In connection with the grants, the Company
recognized a stock based compensation charge of $82,425.  These stock options
were exercised in July 2000.

         In October 2000 the Company issued 10,000 shares of common stock as
consideration for the voiding of the Medinex transaction (see Note 10).

         In December 2000 the Company issued 95,096 shares of common stock
upon conversion of $95,096 principal of indebtedness to related parties
representing the quoted market price of common stock at date of issuance.

         During the year ended December 31, 2000 the Company issued 6,350
shares of common stock valued at $40,438 for services and other consideration
representing the quoted market price of common stock at date of issuance.

         Stock Option Plans
         ------------------

         On July 27, 1999, the Company adopted the 1999 Combination Stock
Option Plan (the "Plan").  Under the Plan, both non-qualified and incentive
stock options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock may be granted
to key employees and other persons.  A total of 200,000 shares have been
reserved for issuance under the Plan.  The options expire ten years from the
date of grant, subject to certain restrictions.

         Effective June 8, 2000 the Company adopted its 2000 Non-Qualified
Stock Option Plan ("the 2000 Plan").  Under the 2000 Plan, both non-qualified
and incentive stock options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock
may be granted to key employees and other persons.  A total of 250,000 shares
have been reserved for issuance under the 2000 Plan.

         The Company has issued various stock options.  The options' vesting
period varies from full vesting upon issuance of options to vesting over a 3
to 4 year period.  A summary of the Company's stock options activity is as
follows:

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        DECEMBER 31, 2000


NOTE 7 - Stockholders' Deficit (Continued)
         ---------------------

         Stock Option Plans (Continued)
         ------------------

         The Company recognized approximately $885,000 and $3,989,000 of
stock-based compensation expense and deferred compensation of approximately $0
and $4,585,000 during the year ended December 31, 2000 and period ended
December 31, 1999 respectively, relating to options granted with exercise
prices below the estimated fair market value of the Company's common stock at
the date of grant.  Deferred compensation is charged to expense as stock
options become vested.  During the year ended December 31, 2000 options to
purchase an aggregate of 180,920 shares of common stock were terminated and
the related deferred compensation was written off against additional paid-in
capital.  The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations
in accounting for these plans.  Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123") was issued by
the FASB in 1995 and, if fully adopted, changes the methods for recognition of
cost on plans similar to those of the Company.  The Company has adopted the
disclosure-only provision of SFAS 123.  Pro forma information regarding net
income and earnings per share is required by Statement 123, and has been
determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options
under the fair value method of that Statement.  The fair value for these
options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option
pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:  risk-free
interest rate of 5.5%; volatility factor of the expected market price of the
Company's common stock of .50; and a weighted-average expected life of the
option, after the vesting period, of 5 years.

         The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in
estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions
and are fully transferable.  In addition, option valuation models require the
input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price
volatility.  Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics
significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in
the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value
estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily
provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock
options.

         Had compensation cost for stock options granted been determined based
on the fair value at the grant date consistent with the provisions of SFAS
123, the Company's net loss and loss per share would have been increased to
the pro forma amounts indicated below:

                                             Year Ended       Period Ended
                                         December 31, 2000  December 31, 1999
                                         -----------------  -----------------
         Net loss - as reported          $  (3,108,388)     $   (6,039,027)
         Net loss - pro forma               (2,944,379)     $   (7,852,469)
         Loss per share - as reported
           Basic                         $       (3.02)     $       (10.46)
         Loss per share - pro forma
           Basic                         $       (2.86)     $       (13.60)

         The effects of applying the pro forma disclosures of SFAS 123 are not
likely to be representative of the effects on reported net earnings for future
years due to the various vesting schedules.

NOTE 7 - Stockholders' Deficit (Continued)
         ---------------------

         Recapitalization
         -----------------

         On December 15, 2000 the Board of Directors approved a one for ten
reverse split of the Company's common stock (see Note 13).  All share and per
share data have been retroactively restated to reflect this recapitalization.


NOTE 8 - Sale of Internet Domain Names
         -----------------------------

         In January 2000 the Company sold the internet domain names gop.com
and gop.net to a third party for $40,000 resulting in a net loss of $11,861.
The Company's net book value at time of sale was $51,861.

         In July 2000 the Company sold the internet domain name elections.com
to a third party for $100,000 resulting in a net gain of $74,834.  The
Company's net book value at time of sale was $25,166.


NOTE 9 - Loss on Sale of Property and Equipment
         --------------------------------------

         Loss on sale of property and equipment represents the loss recognized
on the sale of leasehold improvements and office furniture and fixtures of the
Company's former New York City office facilities.


NOTE 10 -Medinex Transaction
         -------------------

         In July 2000, the Company acquired from Medinex Systems, Inc., a
Delaware corporation formerly known as Netivation.com, Inc. ("Medinex"), all
of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Raintree Communications
Corporation, Public Disclosure, Inc., Net.Capitol, Inc., and U.S. Congress
Handbook, Inc., along with certain other political-related assets
(collectively, the "Assets") in exchange for an aggregate of 4,010,000 shares
of the Company's common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the
"Transaction").  In October 2000, however, the Company and Medinex, by mutual
agreement, voided the Transaction ab initio (that is, at its inception).

         In order to restore the parties to their respective positions
immediately prior to the consummation of the Transaction, the parties agreed
that Medinex would (i) be responsible for all liabilities incurred by the
Company after July 26, 2000 through the unwinding of the Transaction, (ii) pay
the Company (or its designee) approximately $125,000 to pay certain of the
Company's liabilities, and (iii) host and provide basic maintenance of the
"Politics.com" website for up to 6 months; and that the Company would (i) pay
to Medinex an amount equal to 50% of the amount by which the net proceeds from
any sale of the "Politics.com" URL (and related technology) exceed $500,000,
and (ii) issue to Medinex 10,000 shares of its common stock.  The Company
recorded contributed capital of $385,501 from Medinex, representing
expenditures paid by Medinex on behalf of the Company.

         Since the Transaction was voided at its inception (July 26, 2000),
the financial statements of the Company do not reflect the Assets or any
related results of operations.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        DECEMBER 31, 2000


NOTE 11 -Commitments and Contingencies
         -----------------------------

         Other
         -----

         New Politics, by way of assignment, has agreed to pay its web site
developer 25% of the proceeds of any offering of securities by New Politics
until such time as New Politics' account with the web site developer is
current.


NOTE 12 -Income Taxes
         ------------

         For income tax purposes, the Company has a net operating loss
carryforward ("NOL") at December 31, 2000 of approximately $3,984,000 expiring
in 2015 if not offset against future federal taxable income.  There may be
certain limitations as to the future annual use of the NOLs due to certain
changes in the Company's ownership.

         Income tax benefit attributable to net loss differed from the amounts
computed by applying the statutory Federal Income tax rate applicable for each
period as a result of the following:

                                             Year Ended       Period Ended
                                          December 31, 2000  December 31, 1999
                                          -----------------  -----------------
         Computed "expected" tax benefit      $  658,000        $  697,000
         Decrease in tax benefit resulting
           from net operating loss for
           which no benefit is currently
           available                            (658,000)         (697,000)
                                              -----------       -----------
                                              $        -        $        -
                                              ===========       ===========

         The Company had deferred tax assets of approximately $1,355,000 at
December 31, 2000, resulting primarily from net operating loss carryforwards.
The deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance
resulting from the uncertainty surrounding their future realization.


NOTE 13 -Subsequent Events
         -----------------

         Reorganization Agreement
         ------------------------

         On January 31, 2001 Politics-Delaware and CALI executed the
Reorganization Agreement (see Note 1).  Accordingly, Politics-Delaware issued
11,550,000 shares of common stock in exchange for 100% of CALI's common stock.
Concurrently, CALI merged with and into Politics-Delaware and changed its name
to English Language Learning and Instruction System, Inc. ("ELLIS").

         Politics-Delaware also effected a one for ten reverse split of its
common stock.  All share and per share amounts have been retroactively
restated to reflect this recapitalization.

         In addition, the stockholders of Politics-Delaware approved the
distribution of all of Politics-Delaware's interest in New Politics.

Inventory cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.

Fixed Assets - Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Property and
equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method for financial
reporting purposes.  Asset lives vary from three to ten years based on the
estimated useful life of the assets.

development costs due to the immateriality of such costs.

Advertising - The Company expenses the costs of advertising when the
advertising takes place.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements

Note 3.  Foreign Currency Transactions (continued)
         ----------------------------------------

During 1999, the Company entered into one transaction for the sale of goods in
a foreign currency.  This sale resulted in a loss on translation of $7,647.

No other transactions for the years ending December 31, 2000 and 1999 involved

Note 4.  Income Taxes
         ------------

The provision for income taxes is based on income and expense reported in the
financial statements which differs from that reported for income tax purposes.
Accordingly, deferred income taxes are provided in recognition of such
differences.  Temporary differences include vacation accrual, excess tax
depreciation and unpaid interest on the stockholder loan.

Income tax liabilities, expense, and deferred taxes are computed by following
the procedures outlined in Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes".  The applicable federal and state tax
rates in effect at December 31, 2000 and 1999 were used in calculating the
income tax liabilities, expense, and deferred taxes.  In 1999, the balance of
the Company's net operating loss carryforwards was used to offset a portion of
income.  Income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, is
computed as follows:

                                                         2000         1999

Note 5.  Related Party Transactions
         --------------------------

The Company's majority stockholder loaned the Company $709,800 as of December
31, 1999.  Accrued interest totaling $40,860 has been included in this balance
sheet account total of $750,660.  During 2000, the Company repaid $309,894 of
this loan.  This stockholder then converted the remaining balance, $440,766,
to additional paid-in capital.  Also during 1999, the Company purchased from
this stockholder vehicles and boats for $77,500.  Additionally, another
vehicle was purchased from a company officer for  $8,000.  These assets are
reported under "Vehicles and boats" in Note 2.

Note 6.  Concentrations
         --------------

The Company is engaged in a single business segment, the development and
marketing of language training software.  The computer software industry is
highly competitive and rapidly changing.  Significant technological changes in
the industry or customer requirements or the emergence of competitive products
with new capabilities or technologies, could adversely affect operating
results.

The Company sells its products primarily through distributors and resellers.
Sales through the two largest distributors of the Company accounted for
approximately 28 and 41 percent of the Company's net revenues for December 31,
2000 and 1999, respectively.

The Company believes that no single end-user customer accounted for more than
five percent of the Company's sales in 2000 and 1999.

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations
of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable.  The credit risk
associated with accounts receivable is mitigated by the Company's credit
evaluation process, reasonably short collection terms, and the geographical
dispersion of sales transactions.  The Company estimates an allowance for
doubtful accounts of $5,000 based on the credit worthiness of its distributors
and customers as well as general economic conditions.

On August 21, 1998, the Company entered into a three-year lease agreement for

lease is renewable in September of each succeeding year.  During the year
ended December 31, 2000, the Company was released from this agreement when
they signed a new lease at a different location.  The new lease carries a
three-year term, beginning in March of 2000.  The initial monthly payment of
$6,839 will be adjusted annually for increases in the consumer price index.
Future minimum payments are required as follows for the years ending December

Note 8.  Pension Plan
         ------------

On December 31, 1999, the Company adopted a defined benefit pension plan,
effective for the 1999 plan year, covering all employees who meet age and
length of service requirements.  The benefits are based on years of service
and the employee's compensation during the last three consecutive years of
employment. The Company's funding policy is to contribute annually an amount
that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes.  Contributions are
intended to provide not only for benefits
attributed to service to date but also for those benefits expected to be
earned in the future.  Contributions vest to employees at the end of six years
of service.

The required contribution, accrued in the financial statements, for the years
ending December 31, 2000 and 1999 was $70,517 and  $161,417.

The Company has entered into an agreement to pay $4,500 a month until
September 2001 for public relations and investment banking services.

Note 10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
         --------------------------------

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities."  This
statement establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every
derivative instrument be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or
liability measured at fair value.  The statement also requires that changes in
the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless
specific hedge accounting criteria are met.  In June 1999, the FASB issued
SFAS No. 137, which deferred the application of SFAS NO. 133 from fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 1999 to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
The application of SFAS No. 133 is not expected to have a material impact on
the Company's financial statement.

Note 11. Subsequent Event
         ----------------

On December 15, 2000, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (Reorganization Agreement).  This Reorganization Agreement was
executed on January 31, 2001 and was accounted for as a reverse merger with
Politics.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation incorporated in January 1997.  All
of the outstanding common stock of CALI was exchanged for 11,550,000 of common
stock of Politics.com, Inc (POCO).  The transaction, accounted for as a
reverse merger acquisition, resulted in the recapitalization of CALI;
inasmuch, as it was deemed to be the acquiring entity for accounting purposes.
Politics.com, Inc. then changed its name to English Language Learning and
Instruction System, Inc. (ELLIS).

In connection with the reverse merger, the 11,550,000 shares of common stock
of CALI were exchanged at a rate of one share of CALI for one share of POCO.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2000
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Politics.com, Inc. - On July 27, 1999, Loan Oak, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(Lone Oak), acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of
Politics.com, Inc., a Nevada corporation (Politics-Nevada).  The transaction
has been treated for accounting purposes as a reverse acquisition (purchase)
with Politics-Nevada being the acquirer and Lone Oak being the acquired
company.  As a result of the acquisition, Politics-Nevada became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Lone Oak.  In connection with this transaction,
Lone Oak changed its name to Politics.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

Politics-Nevada was incorporated on March 23, 1999 in the State of Nevada.
Politics-Nevada is a development stage enterprise that intended to be a global
Internet media company, offering a branded network of information,
communication, entertainment, community and commerce services with a common
theme of politics.

Computer Assisted Learning & Instruction, Inc.   The Company was organized
under the laws of the State of Utah on January 1, 1994.  The Company was
formed for the purpose of, but not limited to, the development, marketing, and
support of English language training software.

(A) Pro forma Adjustments   On November 30, 2000, Politics.com, Inc.
established a wholly-owned subsidiary, New Politics.com, Inc. (a Nevada
corporation) (New Politics), and entered into an asset purchase agreement
whereby New Politics acquired from Politics.com, Inc. all of Politics.com,
Inc.'s assets and liabilities.  As consideration for acquiring the assets, New
Politics assumed complete and sole responsibility of and for all obligations
associated with the assets acquired.

The Company's ownership interest in New Politics was distributed to the
Company's stockholders by issuing one share of New Politics for every share of
the Company held by such stockholders.  The "spin-off" was approved by the
Company's stockholders on January 31, 2001.

On December 15, 2000 Politics.com, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the Reorganization Agreement) by and between Politics.com,
Inc. and Computer Assisted Learning & Instruction, Inc., a Utah corporation
(CALI).  The Reorganization Agreement contemplated a closing date of January
31, 2001.

Following the "spin-off", on January 31, 2001, under the terms of the
Reorganization Agreement, the shareholders of CALI exchanged 100% of the
outstanding common stock of CALI for 11,550,000 shares of Politics.com, Inc.
common stock, representing approximately 85.6 percent of the outstanding
common stock of Politics.com, Inc. and Politics.com, Inc. changed its name to
English Language Learning and Instruction System, Inc. (ELLIS).  The exchange
resulted in CALI's shareholders holding a larger portion of the voting rights
of Politics.com, Inc. than would be held after the merger by the persons who
were Politics.com, Inc. shareholders prior to the merger.  Accordingly, the
transaction was treated for accounting purposes as a reverse merger (purchase)
with CALI being the acquirer and Politics.com, Inc. being the acquired
company.  Consequently, the pro forma adjustment has been made to record the
"spin-off" of all assets, liabilities, and results of operations of
Politics.com, Inc. held by its subsidiary, New Politics.com, Inc.
