Third Quarter Report
For the three months ended June 30, 1999

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
The Company continued to show a steady improvement in bottom line items such as
net sales and a declining net loss. Sales of the company's utilities in the
quarter were modestly higher than the same quarter for 1998, but with a major
improvement in gross margin and reduction in selling expense. Management expects
the Company to continue in this positive direction.
During the quarter management directed significant resources to the development
and planned launch of its Online Small Business Community to be located at
http://www.peak.com and moved its corporate site to http://www.peaksoft.com. The
Company attended Networld+Interop, in the Novell partner pavilion in May, where
the first 4 vertical tools were unveiled and early registration was commenced.
There are 85 million small businesses across the globe, with 7 million of these
within the United States. These businesses have been virtually ignored due to
their size and diversity. PeakSoft has developed a plan to "facilitate the
formation, growth, and prosperity of small business globally through leading
Internet communications solutions which empower small business to compile
knowledge, and to develop e-commerce and other commercial relationships."
Through http://www.peak.com, we will provide services, products, information,
and forums (to name a few of our offerings) to the Small Business Community that
will assist its members in the task of achieving profitability and prosperity.
PeakSoft is also expected to thrive by driving revenues from several diverse
sources: advertising, revenue sharing, etc.
Helping Small Business seize the E-Opportunity.
The release of the PeakTrack Business Series, content rich software tools
designed to increase productivity in small businesses was also announced during
the quarter. PeakTrack will enhance the functionality of the company's online
business community, http://www.peak.com. The PeakTrack Business Series initially
consists of four industry specific tools, PeakTrack Law, PeakTrack Travel,
PeakTrack Realty and PeakTrack Business. More information on these products can
be found at http://peaktrack.com.
Capital continues to be a major issue for the Company. During the quarter the
Company obtained an additional USD $100,000 in operating capital. Subsequent to
the end of the subject period, the company obtained an additional USD $200,000.
We believe that the Company has developed a very high opportunity plan and can
be positioned to take maximum advantage of the dynamic Internet Market. We are
seeking to leverage our experience, technology and partnerships to this end.
Sincerely yours,
"T.W. METZ"

THIRD QUARTER REVIEW
The quarter ending June 30, 1999 shows a considerable improvement in net loss as
compared with the quarter ending June 30, 1998. Net loss for the third quarter
ended June 30, 1998 decreased from CDN $724,825 to CDN $411,434 in the
comparable quarter ended June 30, 1999 or 43.24%. This was primarily due to
management's continued efforts to reduce expenses along with the focus on
e-commerce/partnering as the preferred method of software distribution.
Net sales increased from CDN $94,125 in the third quarter ended June 30, 1998 to
CDN $182,147 in the comparable quarter ended June 30 ,1999 or 48.32%. With the
reduced costs of electronic commerce, cost of goods sold accounted for only

the comparable quarter ended June 30, 1998.
Operating expenses increased from CDN $572,672 in the third quarter ended June
30, 1998 to CDN $624,337 in the comparable quarter ended June 30, 1999 or 8.28%.

quarter ended June 30, 1998 to CDN $465,468 in the comparable quarter ended June

consulting and professional services used to develop our small business
community portal. During the company's third quarter, the directors approved and
signed employment contracts with three key management personnel.
Selling and marketing expenses decreased from CDN $133,259 in the third quarter
ended June 30, 1998 to CDN $87,071 in the comparable quarter ended June 30,1999

software distribution.

decision not to pursue normal retail outlets to sell our utility programs, that
were deemed unprofitable.

YEAR 2000
In response to the Year 2000 compliance rule established by the Board
of Governors of the Alberta Stock Exchange; the Company has conducted a
comprehensive review of its computer systems to identify the systems that could
be affected by the "Year 2000" issue and is developing an implementation plan to
resolve the issue. The Year 2000 problem is the result of computer programs
being written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year.
Time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather
than the year 2000. This could result in a major system failure or
miscalculations. The Company presently believes that, with modifications to
existing software and the conversion to new software, the Year 2000 problem will
not pose significant operational problems for the Company's computer systems as
so modified and converted. The Company has completed the required modification
and conversions. The Company is in the process of obtaining Year 2000 compliance
statements from vendors, suppliers, and all other third parties that do business
with the Company.
Based upon the foregoing, PeakSoft does not believe it is necessary to
undertake any special measures to cope with the turn of the century. PeakSoft
backs up all critical data as a matter of routine.
PeakSoft does not believe that its computer systems require remediation
to render them Y2K issues.
PeakSoft has concluded that it faces no material Y2K implications to
its business operations because its computer and the programs being run on them
are of recent vintage, marketed as being Y2K compliant.
This release may contain forward-looking statements as well as
historical information. Forward-looking statements, which are
included in accordance with the "safe harbor" provisions of the
"Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, may involve known
and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the
company's actual results and performance to be materially different
from any results or performance suggested by the statements in this
release. Such statements, and other matters addressed in this press
release, may involve a number of risks and uncertainties including
price competition, technological advances, decreased demand or
diversion to other software solutions.
