                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

1.   ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

         The Company was organized by its members on July 1, 1997 in Delaware.
The Company is a development stage enterprise and provides electrical rate
information to commercial and residential consumers nationwide. Revenue is
anticipated to come primarily from referral fees and commissions charged to
electricity suppliers who offer their products and services through the Company.
On February 26, 1999, Wattage Monitor Inc. (a Nevada corporation) acquired all
of the membership units of the Company. For accounting purposes, the acquisition
is treated as a recapitalization with the Company as the acquirer (a reverse
acquisition). Pro forma information is not presented since the acquisition is
not a business combination. The financial statements give retroactive effect to
the conversion of members' equity into common stock to reflect the
recapitalization.

2.   INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         The accompanying financial statements for the six month period ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the Company's financial position and results of operations for
such periods have been included. The accompanying unaudited financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 1999 included in Form 10-KSB. The results for
the six months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000, or for any other
period.

3.   CASH EQUIVALENTS

         The Company considers all short-term investments with original
maturities of ninety days or less to be cash equivalents.

4.   DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

         Depreciation and amortization sufficient to relate the cost of
depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives is provided
using the straight-line method of depreciation.

5.   SOFTWARE LICENSE AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

         The Company has entered into several software license agreements to
enable customers to access information and order services provided via the
internet. Some of these agreements require the Company to pay an annual
maintenance fee. Additionally, the Company incurs software development costs to
tailor such software to its specific requirements. Such customization costs when
internally incurred or purchased from third parties are capitalized until the
project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. License and
development costs are amortized straight-line over three years while maintenance
fees are charged to expense ratably over the contract period. Periodically,
management evaluates the estimated useful life of intangible assets based on
projected future undiscounted cash flows. The Company intends to provide its
information services principally over the internet through both licensed and
custom software.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NATURE OF BUSINESS - (CONTINUED)

6.   PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

         The Company has filed for a patent relating to its computer-based
system and methods for collecting and providing information regarding the
electric power industry and available electric supply options. The Company has
also applied for trademarks to limit the use by others of WM, Wattage Monitor,
Kilowatt Monitor and Watt Monitor. During the six months ended June 30, 2000,
the Company received certificates of registration from the U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office for WM and Wattage Monitor. Patent and trademark expenses will
be amortized on the straight-line method over fifteen years.

7.   ADVERTISING

         The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.

8.   USE OF ESTIMATES

         In preparing these financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and
assumptions. These affect the carrying value of the Company's assets and
liabilities, revenues and expenses during the reporting period and disclosures
relating to contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from
these estimates.

9.   CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

         Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to credit
risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains its
cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured
limits. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk
related thereto.

10.   INCOME TAXES

         The Company, through February 26, 1999, was not subject to income tax.
Income was taxed directly to its members. Accordingly, no provision has been
made for federal income tax. Further, because losses incurred have been reported
by the members, no operating losses are available to offset future income.

         After February 26, 1999, the Company provides for income taxes based
upon income reported for financial reporting purposes. Certain charges to
earnings will differ as to timing from those deducted for tax purposes. The tax
effect of those differences will be recorded as deferred income taxes. At June
30, 2000, the Company has a deferred tax asset of $2,120,000 resulting from a
net operating loss for the period February 27, 1999 through June 30, 2000. The
Company has provided for a valuation allowance of $2,120,000 at June 30, 2000.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NATURE OF BUSINESS - (CONTINUED)

11.   FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

         Management believes the fair value of financial instruments
approximates their carrying amounts.

12.   DEFERRED OFFERING COSTS

         Costs associated with the recapitalization are deferred to the period
in which the recapitalization occurs.

13.   DISCOUNT ON DEBT

         Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of debt are amortized
over the expected life of the debt. The beneficial conversion feature has been
accounted for as additional paid-in capital and associated unamortized discount
on debt recorded as a component of stockholders' equity.

14.   LOSS PER SHARE

         Loss per common share is computed based upon the weighted average
shares outstanding giving retroactive effect of common shares issued to members
of WattMonitor LLC upon completion of the recapitalization. Convertible equity
instruments are not considered in the calculation of net loss per share as their
inclusion would be antidilutive at June 30, 1999 and 2000.

                          (A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

NOTE C - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT)

         In January 1999, Watt Monitor LLC sold 37,777 membership units.

         On February 26, 1999, Wattage Monitor Inc. (a Nevada corporation)
acquired all of the equity (membership units) of WattMonitor LLC. For accounting
purposes, the acquisition is treated as a recapitalization with the Company as
the acquirer (a reverse acquisition). Pro forma information is not presented
since the acquisition is not a business combination. The members exchanged their
membership units for 7,550,450 shares of common stock (approximately 72% of the
outstanding common stock) of Wattage Monitor Inc. In addition, each member,
other than the controlling members, was entitled to acquire such number of
shares of common stock at $1.00 per share as necessary to maintain the same
ownership percentage in Wattage Monitor Inc. as such member held in the Company.
In connection with this right, 657,366 shares were issued. Also, in connection
with the recapitalization, all employees exchanged their contingent membership
interests for stock options to purchase 918,000 shares of Wattage Monitor Inc.
exercisable at $1.00 per share.

         Certain stockholders of Wattage Monitor Inc. advanced approximately
$500,000 in January 1999, which, along with $500,000 advanced in 1998, were
converted into 2,750,000 shares of common stock in 1999. In October 1999, notes
payable and accrued interest of $487,580 were converted to 325,054 shares of
common stock.

         In connection with its recapitalization, Wattage Monitor Inc. issued
1,000,000 shares of Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock for $3,000,000. The
Series A 6% Preferred Stock accrues dividends at 6% per annum, payable annually,
commencing on February 26, 2000. The dividend at the option of the Company may
be paid in common stock. Each share of Series A 6% Preferred Stock is
convertible into one share of common stock. Such shares convert: (1) upon the
exercise of the warrant to purchase Series B Preferred Stock; (2) upon Wattage
Monitor Inc. raising $5,000,000 in an offering of common stock at $1.00 per
share or greater; or (3) at the option of the holder. In connection with the
issuance of the Series A 6% Preferred Stock, each purchaser received one Series
B warrant to purchase 3.5 shares of Series B Preferred Stock at $1.00 per share
exercisable 181 days after closing through December 15, 1999 or within 30 days
of a notice of a sale of at least $7,000,000 in equity securities of Wattage
Monitor Inc. for each share of Series A 6% Preferred Stock purchase.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

NOTE C - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT) - (CONTINUED)

         In connection with the merger, a warrant was issued to the holder of
250,000 shares of preferred stock which represents the right to purchase 100,000
shares of common stock at $1.00 per share. Also, warrants to purchase 449,999
shares of common stock at $1.50 per share are outstanding. These warrants were
issued in connection with notes payable to related parties which were repaid
during the year ended December 31, 1999.


NOTE D - CONTINGENT MEMBERSHIP INTERESTS/STOCK OPTIONS

         Contingent membership interests in an LLC are similar to stock options
in a corporation. Pursuant to a formal plan, the Board granted various employees
and other individuals contributing to the success of the organization,
contingent membership interests. In conjunction with the reverse acquisition of
Wattage Monitor Inc., all such contingent membership interests were exchanged
for stock options under Wattage Monitor Inc.'s incentive stock option plan. The
plan allows for 2,500,000 shares of common stock to be granted. In the three
months prior to the reverse acquisition, Wattage Monitor issued employee stock
options totaling 370,000 exercisable at $1.00 per share. Compensation expense
related thereto is immaterial.

         The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123,
ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION, but applies Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for stock options.

         Presented below is a summary of the status of the Company's stock
options and the related transactions.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

year ends on December 31st. The plan covers employees who have completed one
month of service and have attained the minimum age requirement, as defined in
the plan.

under Item 2 "Plan of Operation" constitute or may constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995 (the "Act"). We desire to avail ourselves of certain "safe harbor"
provisions of the Act and are therefore including this special note to enable us
to do so. Forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-QSB or hereafter
included in other publicly available documents filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, reports to our stockholders and other publicly available
statements issued or released by us involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties, and other factors which could cause our actual results,
performance (financial or operating) or achievements to differ from the future
results, performance (financial or operating) achievements expressed or implied
by such forward-looking statement. Such future results are based upon
management's best estimates based upon current conditions and the most recent
results of operations.

ITEM 2. PLAN OF OPERATION

         As of August 1, 2000, we had $802,933 of cash in our accounts. At
today's expenditure levels that would carry us into October 2000, assuming no
material revenue. We began to generate revenue during the first quarter of
2000, and although we expect our revenues to grow consistently throughout the
year, we believe we will need to obtain additional financing in the next
three months to cover the shortfall between that expected revenue and our
expenditures through 2001. At present, we are in discussions with several
parties regarding multiple possible transactions and are confident that an
acceptable financing will be closed prior to the expenditure of our current
funds.

         Our goal is to be the preeminent electric rate and service information
source in the competitive electricity market. To do so, our initial focus was to
become the industry standard for objective information regarding an electric
consumer's specific choices. We derive our revenue principally from electricity
suppliers for presenting consumers with information about electric rates and
allowing consumers to order electricity from their chosen supplier. We also
expect to receive commissions on electricity sales to consumers who order
through our system, to provide electric marketing research, industry news and
information, statistical indices reflecting industry performance and to offer a
variety of related services.

         From our inception, we thought and still believe there are three
requirements necessary to prove our business model:

         1.  Creation of the Wattage Monitor information system;
         2.  Demonstration that consumers use the Wattage Monitor service; and
         3.  Electricity supplier participation.

         With our success enrolling suppliers - a total of 28 competitive
electricity suppliers in the first quarter of 2000 - we have successfully
demonstrated our ability to achieve each of these requirements. Now the
challenge is to scale our business as competition spreads to additional states
to capitalize on our market leading position.

         The first step in scaling our business was to secure a strong market
share of participating suppliers in each of the regulated utility territories in
each of the states with active (more than one or two suppliers) competition:
California, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. Through the second quarter of
2000, our market share - defined as the percentage of competing suppliers in a
territory that are actively participating in our system - was greater than 50%
in all cases, as much as 85% in some cases, and averaged approximately 70%.



                                       12
<PAGE>


PLAN OF OPERATION

         During the next year, we expect monthly expenditures, which grew from
approximately $300,000 to approximately $400,000 during the quarter, to remain
consistent at the roughly $400,000 level as we scale our business. Current
monthly expenditures are approximately $110,000 for system development, $80,000
for marketing to suppliers, $70,000 to operate our toll free telephone service
and $140,000 for general and administrative expenses. Of these amounts
approximately $85,000, $50,000, $0 (these services are contracted to a third
party) and $40,000, respectively, are for salaries of our employees.

         We expect to operate for the next twelve months principally as follows:

               -    We expect to maintain current information about electric
                    rates and services in all states with active competition
                    among suppliers.

               -    We expect to offer Internet access and telephone service
                    through our call center for the entire year, the cost of
                    which is included in the monthly expenditures discussed
                    above.

               -    We expect to realize increasing revenue from offering our
                    service.

               -    We expect to secure additional funding as necessary to
                    meet our operational needs.

               -    We expect to continue to actively market our service to
                    suppliers through our direct sales force.

               -    We expect to expand and refine our information system,
                    Wattage Monitor v2.0, and secure the related additional
                    software and systems necessary.

               -    We expect to actively pursue co-branding opportunities to
                    increase the exposure of our service and have recently added
                    one marketing employee to focus exclusively on this effort.

               -    We expect to pursue additional revenue generating
                    activities.

               -    In sum, we expect current cash reserves to carry us into
                    October 2000. As we begin to scale our business to
                    capitalize on our market leading position, we expect to
                    secure the additional financing required to continue that
                    process and carry us through the year 2001.
