INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT'S REVIEW REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Studio City Holding Corporation
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Studio City
Holding Corporation (a New York corporation) (a development stage company) and
subsidiaries (development stage companies) as of September 30, 2000, and the
related consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months then
ended, and the changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the nine
months then ended, in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and
Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants. All information included in these financial statements is the
representation of the management of Studio City Holding Corporation.
A review consists principally of inquiries of company personnel and analytical
procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an
audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying September 30, 2000 financial statements in order for
them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999 (including
cumulative information from inception October 21, 1991 to December 31, 1999),
were audited by us, and we expressed an unqualified opinion on them in our
report dated February 28, 2000, but we have not performed any auditing
procedures since that date.

STUDIO CITY HOLDING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 21, 1991 (Inception) THROUGH SEPTEMBER 30, 2000
NOTE 1--ORGANIZATION, BACKGROUND INFORMATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization and Background Information
STUDIO CITY INCORPORATED HOLDING (the Company) was incorporated in the State of
Florida on October 25, 1991 as Studio City Incorporated. Prior to incorporation,
pre-incorporation operations commenced in February of 1991. The Company is
engaged in asset development, business management, production and
post-production studio operation, motion picture studio operation, tourist
attraction operation, the development of motion pictures for theatrical
exhibition, for television (i.e. network, cable, pay-per-view, etc.) and home
video, and in the development, production, and distribution of printed
publications. The Company owns a significant number of intellectual properties
and has a partial interest in other intellectual properties.
FAWNSWORTH INTERNATIONAL PICTURES CORPORATION (FIPC) was incorporated in the
State of Florida on October 21, 1991. Prior to incorporation, pre-incorporation
operations commenced in February of 1991. FIPC is a full service motion picture
and television production and distribution company. As a result of the
stockholders of FIPC receiving 491,150 shares of common stock of Studio City
with a par value of $1.00 in exchange for their ownership in the shares of FIPC,
FIPC became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company on October 18, 1992. The
Company owns 100% of the voting stock of FIPC.
Prior to the stock exchange and transfer, the stockholders of Studio City
Incorporated voted unanimously to increase the amount of common stock authorized
from 1,000,000 shares to 1,500,000 to accommodate the exchange with FIPC
stockholders. The end result was that Studio City, Incorporated became the
parent company of FIPC (a wholly owned subsidiary) with both companies being
developmental stage companies. In a unanimous vote of the stockholders of the
Company, it was voted to change the name of the Company to Studio City
Incorporated Holding, which also operated under the name SCI Holding.
In a unanimous vote of its stockholders, the Company was instructed to execute a
stock split to fully dilute the stock of the Company. The 100 to 1 stock split
was executed on March 1, 1993. On that date, the total authorized common stock
of 150,000,000 shares includes all of the stock authorized including 500,000
shares reserved under the Company's Employee Incentive Stock Option Plan. The
common stock of the Company originally had a par value of $1.00 per share and
was amended to $.01 per share at the time of the stock split. Subsequent to the
stock split, the par value has again been amended to reflect the par value at
$.0001 per share, and this is the par value per share for each of the
subsidiaries subsequently formed.
Realizing the necessity for expansion, the Company created another subsidiary,
POC-IT PUBLISHERS, INCORPORATED (Poc-It). Poc-It was incorporated in the State
of Florida on May 3, 1993. The Company owns 100% of the voting stock. This
subsidiary was created to assemble, acquire, produce and publish various
literary properties owned by Studio City Incorporated Holding.

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share: Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share is computed by
dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share
is computed the same as Basic but also giving effect to all dilutive potential
common shares such as options, warrants and convertible preferred stock.
However, the computation of Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share does not assume
conversion of any potential common shares if that has an antidilutive effect on
earnings per share. Since there is a loss from operations, Diluted Earnings
(Loss) Per Share is computed the same as Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share. This
is computed by dividing the net loss by weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the year. The Earnings (Loss) Per Share are as follows:

NOTE 3--INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND RELATED OBLIGATIONS
Intangible assets consists of ownership of and rights to a significant number of
literary properties.
In October 1991, the date of incorporation of the Company and FIPC, stock was
issued for rights to several literary properties. 750,000 shares of Studio City
Incorporated Holding stock and 400,000 shares of Fawnsworth International
Pictures Corporation were issued at $1.00 per share in exchange for property
rights and exploitation. The recorded amount of these intangible assets for the
years 1991 and 1992 was zero based on the predecessor's cost. Larry D. Faw,
majority stockholder, was the predecessor owner. The total price of $1,150,000
has been reflected in the 1991 and 1992 financial statements as a reduction in
equity, specifically as a special distribution to stockholder.
Purchase Agreement: On February 16, 1993, the Company entered into an agreement
to acquire the direct ownership of various intellectual properties in the amount
of $7,226,000, which included 72 motion picture properties, 4 television pilot

Specialty Product Design and marketing program. The Company's Purchase Agreement
for these properties included an obligation in the form of a promissory demand
note in the amount of $1,554,027 payable to Larry D. Faw, the majority
stockholder. In addition, the Company granted to Larry D. Faw warrants with the
option to purchase 5,000,000 shares of common stock, which was considered to be

the Purchase Agreement. These warrants are exercisable at $1.00 per share at a
maximum of 25% per year beginning the first anniversary of the effective date of
the grant and continues until one of the following occurs: (i) to the year 2003,
or, (ii) when all warrants have been exercised, or, (iii) all rights to such
warrants have been terminated in a mutually agreed upon written agreement.
The Purchase Agreement additionally provided for the requirement that 51% of the
Company's preferred stock be issued to Larry D. Faw. The amount of preferred
stock was later decreased to 1,000,000 shares of redeemable convertible and
callable preferred B stock, with each share of preferred stock being entitled to
noncumulative dividends at 6% annual rate upon declaration of the Board of
Directors.
The preferred stock was recorded in the amount of $671,973, which was the
purchase price of the assets less the amount attributed to the promissory demand
note and the common stock warrants.
The Company, as part of the Purchase Agreement issued 1,000,000 shares of its
preferred B stock on February 15, 1995. The preferred stock can be converted to
common stock at market price, or, callable at any time by the Company at a fixed
price of $50 per share for preferred B stock and $105 per share for preferred A
stock, or in parts, on or after February 16, 1996, and will be redeemable and/or
callable until February 16, 2006.
In summary, the Purchase Agreement includes the $1,554,027 promissory demand
note, the $5,000,000 common stock warrants and $671,973 value of preferred stock
for a total price of $7,226,000. Management believes this Purchase Agreement was
at a significant discount which is evidenced by the Independent Valuation as
discussed below in Note 3. As previously stated, the recorded amount of these
intangible assets was zero based on the predecessor's cost. Larry D. Faw, the
majority stockholder, was the predecessor owner. The total price of $7,226,000
has been reflected in the 1993 through 1999 financial statements as a reduction
in equity, specifically as a special distribution to stockholder.
Pre-existing Rights: Ownership of certain literary properties were transferred
from the Company to its subsidiaries in 1993. Properties with a value of
$600,000 were transferred to Fawnsworth International Pictures Corporation,
increasing the intangible asset value from $400,000 to $1,000,000 (note:
properties were purchased in 1993 for $100, increasing intangible assets to
$1,000,100) and increasing its additional paid-in capital from $433,880 to
$1,033,880. Properties with a value of $1,200,000 were transferred to Poc-It
Publishers, Incorporated in exchange for its common stock. After these
transfers, the Company's intangible assets were $5,026,000. Incidental costs
have subsequently been incurred increasing the asset costs.
The purchase price of the intangible assets acquired from the majority
stockholder, Larry D. Faw, was determined by Industry Standards (i.e. Union
Minimums as detailed in the Writers Guild of America 1992 Minimum Basic
Agreement as collectively bargained with the Alliance of Motion Picture and

NOTE 16--CHANGING ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
From September 1995 to September 1996 Studio City Incorporated Holding entered
into a "First Right of Refusal/Space Lease Agreement" with The Walt Disney
Company on product produced on the Disney-MGM Studios by Studio City. The
Company entered into a one year space lease/first right of refusal/production
agreement to expend a minimum of $1,200,000 at the studio for its projects. The
Company entered into this agreement with Disney based on an agreement with a New
York investment banker taking a contractual (dated August 28, 1995) equity
position of $1,200,000 in Quagga Entertainment Corporation, the production arm
which was located with the Company at Disney/MGM Studios. Quagga Entertainment
Corporation was to achieve total capitalization in 1996 of $8,500,000 based on a
registered public offering in Connecticut. The Company was also qualified to
sell the offering in the state of New York as a registered broker/dealer. The
Company was represented by an investment banker/consultant in Connecticut, who
contractually committed to raising Quagga's capital needs through a registered
D-504 offering. Also, the Company had the option to create and market a "red
herring" D-506 private placement. The Company chose "Shadow Raven", a low-budget
feature motion picture, to be the first project. However, due to expanded costs
associated with the contingent joint venture production partners, the project
was postponed until sufficient capitalization was realized. Quagga's D-504
offering was registered in Connecticut on April 12, 1996. The investment banker
was to commence the financial marketing of the offering, but failed to do so.
The New York equity investor could not meet the contractual commitment. As a
result, the D-504 offering expired on April 12, 1997 and the "red herring" D-506
was withdrawn as a viable funding plan. Accordingly, the offering costs of
$32,051 have been expensed during 1997. With the lack of alternative financing
available to the Company, the contract with Walt Disney Company expired on
September 15, 1996 along with the contingent joint venture production
partnerships.
In April 1997, the Company expanded its operations by relocating to Tampa,
Florida into a facility that provides a small soundstage, office operations, and
edit suite. This new organization

The Company being an entertainment company is often required to defend its
rights and licenses for intellectual properties that the Company either owns or
serves as a joint venture partner. This type of litigation is common in the
entertainment industry, and considering that the Company owns numerous
intellectual properties and owns various types of licenses and joint
participations in intellectual properties, it can safely be assumed that the
Company will be required to defend its rights, presently and in the future.
Currently, the Company and its subsidiary, Poc-It Comics, Incorporated, are

products are in question. Litigation is pending in this matter, and, it has been
determined that the products will be completed without the assistance of the
joint venture partner. The Company and its financial partners will seek to
recoup all of its investment.
In March 2000, the Company agreed to a mediated settlement. The Settlement
Agreement With Prejudice became effective April 11, 2000. In the settlement
agreement, the Company would have complete ownership of all video footage
associated with the "Zoo Toonz" video series with music. The project included
some original music created by other members of the joint venture. The Company
has the right and direct ownership of all compiled music videos, and the right
to exploit 28 musical compositions for a period which would end April 2030. The
Company and its joint venture partner will receive 100% of the revenues produced
from the sales associated with the musical products as originally produced for a
period ending in 2030, and 100% of the revenues from and for perpetuity all Zoo
Toonz products, including new music produced from various new master recordings

rescission liability has been classified outside of permanent stockholders'
equity, under the caption "Equity Securities Subject To Rescission". This amount
is $432,176 as of December 31, 1996, $913,599 as of December 31, 1997,
$1,003,100 as of December 31, 1998, and 1999 and $1,006,220 as of September 30,
2000. The likelihood of the exercising of these rescission rights is considered
to be remote, and therefore, interest has not been accrued and included as an
additional liability amount. But the interest is considered to be a contingent
liability of the Company and based on a 10% annual interest rate, amounts to
approximately $36,000 as of December 31, 1996, $98,000 as of December 31, 1997,
$198,000 as of December 31, 1998, $298,000 as of December 31, 1999 and $373,000
as of September 30, 2000. When the rescission rights expire, the respective
amounts will be reclassified as permanent equity.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION.
The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
consolidated condensed financial statements included herein. The Company filed
its first Quarterly Report on August 15, 1999. The Company filed its first
Annual Report on April 20, 2000. The attached financial statements represent
quarterly reports from inception to June 30, 2000. The Company has broadened
its operations to include the development of non-entertainment businesses.
Management is currently reviewing and preparing updated business plans to
complement new business opportunities. The purpose of this effort is to add
value to the Company and its subsidiaries and to create core activities that
will increase and maintain revenues for an extended period of time. See Item 1.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Revenues. The Company's cash flow are derived from providing debt, equity, or
debt/equity financing to its subsidiaries. The operating results have
fluctuated in the past and may fluctuate significantly in the future as well as
a result of a variety of factors, some of which are outside the Company's
control. In response to the demand for entertainment products, the Company has
recently introduced a plan to create new product lines and to fully develop
various intellectual properties. The Company expects that it will continue to
net losses at least through and including the fourth quarter of 2000 and until
March 31, 2001. There is no guarantee that the Company can fully capitalize it
operations.
Nine months ended September 30, 2000, compared to Nine months ended September
30, 1999
Total revenues increased from $178,228 to $202,120 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000. The increase is primarily attributable to increases in,
short-term financing and Book Sales were offset by a increase in the cost of
operations as they Company prepares for its Primary Stock Offering.
The increase of expenses is due to the increase of associated administrative
costs and pre-public offering costs.
A decrease of earnings is due to the reduction of wholesale Book Sales prior to
the year end from Zweig Knights Publishing's entertainment franchise, based on
"The Nicholas Stories". The last of the first trilogy (The Maiden Voyage of
Kris Kringle) was published on November 1, 1999, and the second printing of
"The Boy With A Wish" was published on October 15, 1999. The first book of the
second trilogy (Luigi and the Lost Wish) was published on September 30, 2000
and will be released on November 1, 2000.

<PAGE> 33
Total expenses decreased $19,121 to $225,673 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000. The increase is primarily attributable to a decrease in
Other expenses selling, general and administrative.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company experienced cash flow deficiencies from operations and from
financing activities, (offset by cash flow from short-term borrowings) during
the nine months ended September 30, 2000.
There were no revenues at the end of September 30, 2000, which was primarily
due a decrease in revenue from books sales from Zweig Knights Publishing
Corporation (a majority owned subsidiary of the Company). The Company has
continued to incur debt through short-term financing activities through
officers, stockholders and affiliates. The Company anticipates the continuance
of short-term financing until capital is created through a Primary stock
offering and/or mezzanine financing and/or equity capitalization. There is no
assurance that the Company will achieve the level of capitalization needed to
sustain its operations, however, new business opportunities may allow the
Company to re-capitalize through joint venture associations.
RECENT BUSINESS ALLIANCE AND ACQUISITION.
On November 26, 1999, the Company formed a business alliance with Problem
Solvers, Incorporated (a Kansas corporation that provides consultation to
petroleum companies) to form "The Hammer Trust - An Irrevocable Business
Royalty Trust". The Hammer Trust was created to coordinate the acquisition of
various types of business operations and to disperse revenues generated by
acquisitions to Studio City Holding Corporation and Problem Solvers,
Incorporated. Upon the creation of the Hammer Trust, the Company issued
1,500,000 shares of common stock to the Trust, 1,200,000 shares of Class B
Preferred stock to the Trust, and a promissory demand note of $2,500,000.
Problem Solvers provided 2,333,340 shares of Class B Preferred stock of SCA
Global Resources to the Trust. Both parties contributed $1000 in cash, goodwill
and business expertise to the alliance. The Trust is operated on a fifty-fifty
basis, with Larry D. Faw and Hurschel Buscher, Esquire serving as Managing
Trustee and Trustee, respectfully.
The first acquisition generated by The Hammer Trust was the acquisition of
M & C Oil, Incorporated.
In April 2000, SCA Global Resources, Incorporated (a majority owned subsidiary
of the Company) completed an acquisition M & C Oil, Incorporated (a Nebraska
corporation operating as a foreign corporation in Kansas). SCA Global
Resources, Inc. received all of M & C Oil's stock and assets in a stock swap of
10,000 shares of common stock in M & C Oil owned by Wellsprings Investments,
Inc. (which represented 100% of M & C Oil's stock) to a minority holding of
10,000 shares of common stock in SCA Global Resources.

M & C Oil owns certain oil and gas leases in Kansas with existing oil wells and
existing gas wells. SCA Global Resources is currently preparing an inventory of
each well, (i.e. pump jacks, drilled footage with steel piping, electric
plants, oil reservoirs, drilling apparatus, gas lines, and assorted materials
for the operation of each well). Upon the completion of the inventory, an
analysis will be provided through a Petroleum Engineering Report in terms of
current industry values. The current report will then be filed by amendment.

to prepare a status report for each well. The Company's current business plan
revolves around the activation of existing wells, and there are no current
plans for new drilling wells.
