MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
GENERAL DISCUSSION
Results from operations for the first fiscal quarter ending 9/30/99 suffered
from a variety of unexpected setbacks. Primary to that involved the relationship
with Lernout and Hauspie, and the significant investment in AMP3.COM.
With Lernout and Hauspie, despite a year-long mutual courting of an agreement,
the support that had been promised towards the www.crisis-communications.com
program failed to materialize over the course of the quarter. As a result, with
the exception of one significant opportunity that we hope will mature early next
year, management was unable to significantly capitalize on the marketing efforts
that had been opened up through our New York presence. Significant staff
reductions within the L&H division that management was dealing with have caused
us to reach out to new contacts at L&H to further the relationship. We have
opened up encouraging dialogue within the U.S. divisions of L&H, and are
continuing to pursue that relationship.
Therefore, the focus of our marketing efforts is being re-directed towards
capturing marketing and on-line corporate sponsorship consulting revenue for
clients and projects generated by management. Specifically, for example, our
www.ihomeline.com joint venture represents opportunities for corporate
sponsorships and joint marketing campaigns.
With www.amp3.com, the significant event for the quarter was their sponsorship
of the emerging artist stage at Woodstock in July. That sponsorship, of which
JVWeb had been instrumental in supporting, was anticipated to catapult AMP3 into
a material presence in the emerging digital music download, or MP3, Industry.
Although, as of this time, that investment has not yet realized its anticipated
potential, management is optimistic that a return on that investment will occur.
On-going efforts have concentrated on the following areas: 1) continuing the
development of www.ihomeline.com. Management is anticipating a live simulcast of
the program will soon take place. Once this occurs, this will give the ihomeline
joint venture a platform to simultaneously webcast and broadcast on the radio
programs that can be syndicated into a variety of avenues. 2) the
www.linksxpress.com investment. Linksxpress has a strong management team and is
well-funded. There are proving to be a number of opportunities for synergy
between our two organizations, and we are presently in negotiations to fully
capitalize on those synergies. Management is optimistic that those discussions
will bring positive results. 3) In the hosting area, management has had a number
of meetings with various GTE representatives, in order to fully maximize our
co-location facility in Phoenix. At least two significant proposals have been
issued in conjunction with GTE. However, none have yet resulted in significant
contracts, although some minor revenue is beginning to materialize. 4)
Considerable energies have been applied in securing additional joint ventures.
Management has striven to be prudent in securing good agreements with worthwhile
projects. As a result, although we continue to be in serious negotiations with a
variety of ventures, as of this time, no additional agreements have been signed.
For the future, management is consolidating its resources into the generation of
immediate consulting revenue. Management will also continue to work towards
developing www.ihomeline.com, which is presently in a capital raising phase.
Management has recently begun exploring various business combination
possibilities to create greater momentum for the company. No serious discussions
are underway at this time. However, management believes internet market forces
and technology changes continue to rapidly create new business models, and
challenge existing ones. Therefore, an alignment with a compatible entity with
additional resources could be a benefit.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On or about January 17, 2000, the Company was served with a Summons with
Notice dated December 30, 1999 regarding a lawsuit instituted by Louis Ferro, a
former consultant of the Company. This lawsuit was instituted in the Supreme
Court of the State of New York, County of New York (Index No. 605883) against
the Company and Greg J. Micek, a Director and the President of the Company. (The
Supreme Court of the State of New York is the initial level trial court of the
State of New York.) Under the procedural law of the State of New York, the
Summons with Notice received by the Company is not required to give much
information regarding the specifics of the claims being asserted, and no such
specifics were given. However, such Summons with Notice did indicate that the
nature of the action is breach of contract, unjust enrichment and libel, and
that Mr. Ferro is seeking $1,042,132.89 (plus interest) in damages. The Company
otherwise had until about February 17, 2000 to answer this lawsuit; however, the
Company procured an extension from Mr. Ferro's counsel, giving to the Company
the right to file its answer at any time on or prior to March 15, 2000. The
Company believes that the lawsuit is without merit and that the Company has
valid counterclaims against Mr. Ferro, having values that will more than offset
any amounts Mr. Ferro is likely to recover against the Company. Accordingly,
unless settled soon, the Company intends to answer this lawsuit, vigorously
defending against all claims asserted and asserting all available counterclaims.
Notwithstanding the preceding, to avoid the excessive costs of litigation, the
Company has reached a verbal, non-binding settlement with Mr. Ferro in which the
Company would pay to Mr. Ferro an amount extremely small in comparison to the
amount sought by him. The ultimate completion of this settlement depends on one
contingency, the outcome of which is uncertain. As a consequence, the ultimate
outcome of the proposed settlement and of this lawsuit can not now be
determined.
Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds
For services rendered and agreed to be rendered the Company granted to
a person providing services to the Company an option to purchase up to 1,000,000
shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $.21 per share. The
issuance of the option is claimed to be exempt, and the issuance of the common
stock underlying the option will be claimed to be exempt, pursuant to Regulation
D under the Securities Act of 1933.
On May 12, 1998, the Company's Registration Statement on Form SB-2
(Commission File No. 333-43379) was declared effective by the U.S Securities and
Exchange Commission. The Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the
quarter ended March 31, 1998 contained a detail discussion of the securities
registered by this Registration Statement. This discussion remains true and
correct as of the end of the quarter ended December 31, 1999 except in certain
regards discussed in the remainder of this paragraph. First, the Common Stock
and the Company's Class A Warrants ("Class A Warrants") have commenced trading.
In addition, 10,240 Class A Warrants have been exercised, and proceeds from such
exercises in the aggregate amount of $10,240 have been received by the Company.
All such proceeds have been used for general corporate purposes and were paid to
persons other than directors and officers of the Company and persons owning more
than 10% of any class of equity securities of the Company. Moreover, the Company
believes that LS Capital Corporation has sold material numbers of the shares of
Common Stock and Class A Warrants previously owned by it.

encumbrance and any restriction on the transfer thereof of any nature
whatsoever.
2.4 Conflicts. The execution, delivery, and consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not (a) violate, conflict with
or result in the breach or termination of, or otherwise give any other
