                            DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


General Development of Business

     Premier Classic Art, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated as Pet-Con
Industries, Inc. in the State of Delaware on June 14, 1991. The Company
previously manufactured recyclable containers and bottles for sale to private
grocery product manufacturers and food packers. The Company discontinued these
operations in June 1995 and had no operating activities from then until
September 1999.

     On September 2, 1999, the Company purchased all of the outstanding shares
of stock of Cool Classic Incorporated, a Nevada corporation, in exchange for
3,069,788 shares of the Company's common stock. Cool Classic Incorporated is
the owner of 400,000 original, hand-painted animation production cels, which
the Company now plans to market and sell.


Description of Business

     Having acquired the outstanding stock of Cool Classic Incorporated with
its collection of 400,000 animation production cels, the Company intends to
market and sell these cels to the public through its website as well as through
art galleries, department type stores, other retail outlets and catalogues.

     Pursuant to a Sub-Lease and Assembly Agreement, dated as of September
1999, by and between the Company and Royal Animated Art, Inc., a California
corporation ("Royal"), the Company stores its collection of cels in a warehouse
leased by Royal from a third party. In addition, Royal has agreed to provide
services such as cleaning, sorting, cataloguing, matching with backgrounds,
matting and framing (as requested by the Company) as well as generally
preparing the cels for market. The Company is to pay Royal $1,000 per month for
the warehouse space as well as out of pocket costs plus 15% for the services
rendered to the Company.

     In addition to the marketing and sale of its own collection of cels, the
Company has entered into a Distribution Agreement, dated September 2, 1999,
with Royal. The agreement is for a three year term, subject to renewal As part
of the agreement, Royal grants the Company the non-exclusive right to purchase
and market reproductions of certain animation and comic strip images and
characters, including all animation art and comic strip lithographs, which
Royal has or acquires reproduction rights to. These rights are subject to any
restrictions or limitations contained in agreements under which Royal acquires
its rights and to the approval of Royal over whether and how many reproductions
of each particular piece of artwork should be sold to the Company. The Company
is to pay Royal a percentage of Royal's suggested retail price, depending on
whether the Company sells directly to the ultimate consumer (50%) or to
wholesalers, distributors, retailers and/or other middlemen (25%).


Animation Cels

     The term "cel" is used to describe the basic component of most types of
animation art. In its strictest sense, a cel is a plastic sheet, either
cellulose nitrate or cellulose acetate, on which animated characters are
painted. In practice, the term cel has come to mean that plastic sheet in
combination with the outline and coloring of a character, object or special
effect. Outlines can be either hand-inked or Xerographically transferred to the
sheet of plastic. Those outlines are then filled with color, either by
hand-painting or a serigraphic process, to complete the cel.

     The Company's cel collection includes a combination of 12 field cels
(approximately 12" x 10" in size) and pan cels (approximately 36" x 10"). The
cels are selected from and were used in the production of Real
Ghostbusters/Slimer, Ewoks (Star Wars), He-Man, Master of the Universe, She-Ra,
Princess of Power, Bravestar, Flash Gordon, Shelly Duvall's Bedtime Stories,
Beethoven, Back to the Future and others.


Original Production Cels

     These cels are hand-painted and have actually been used in the making of
animated films. They can have either Xerographed or hand-inked outlines and are
hand-painted at the studio. Each animation film is made of


                                       1
<PAGE>

thousands of individual hand-painted cels. They are filmed in sequence to
create the illusion of motion. Many original production cels have been either
lost or destroyed through the years, which enhances their value as collectible
art. In addition each cel is a one-of-a-kind piece of art, and this rarity also
enhances its value. Because they were created to make an actual cartoon, each
cel is a component part of a larger movement. Different cels from the same
scene may be more or less desirable depending on a variety of factors such as
size, profile, and expression of the character, any damage to inking or paint
and overall visual appearance.


The Making of a Production Cel


     The process begins when a storyboard is created by a talented animator,
who with the film director, determines the extent of the background to be
shown, the size of the characters and props to be used in each scene. The
animator makes a sketch from what will become each of approximately 16 frames
per foot of film.


     Next, an outlined ink drawing is made of each of the sketches. This
outline is on a sheet of clear celluloid acetate. Each and every inked outline
is turned over to a painter and, by hand, the brilliant colors are applied with
special paints.


     Once each cel is hand painted and the foregrounds and backgrounds are
complete, the artwork is ready for photography. Using a multiplane camera, the
foreground, animation plane and the background are meticulously arranged and
photographed.


Sericels


     Sometimes called serigraph cels, seri-cels re-create the look and feel of
the original art by means of Serigraphy, a fine art process. The serigraphy
process involves silk-screening each individual color to the cel, one at a
time. Every distinct shade is a separate screen and a separate pass in the
procedure. As a result of this fine art process, each color is flawlessly
reproduced. Sericels are also created in limited quantities, typically 2,500 to
5,000 peices. Because of their larger edition size, sericels are the most
affordable type of animation art and, the Company believes, ideal for the
beginning collector.


Production of Sericels


     To produce a serigraph cel, or sericel, a hand cut, master screen is
prepared for each individual color of the original artwork. To produce this
Serigraph Cel, or Seri-Cel, a hand cut, master screen is prepared for each
individual color of the original artwork. The serigrapher meticulously applies
each color separately one screen at a time in perfect registration. The result
is an original work of art. The images chosen for a sericel are carefully
selected from the studio archives. Each sericel is limited in production to
only a certain number of pieces. After each edition size is achieved, the
screens used to create the art are destroyed, thus insuring their limited
status.


Industry and Competition


     The Company believes that the collection of animation production cels is a
rapidly expanding pastime with more and more people every day discovering the
enjoyment and appreciating the hand-craftsmanship of these timeless works of
art. The Company is aware of two major distributors of animation cels, The Walt
Disney Co. (through its Walt Disney Art Classics division) and Time Warner Inc.
(through its Warner Bros. division) in addition to several distributors of
lesser stature. These distributors have significantly greater resources than
the Company. In addition, many collectors and distributors of cels have
established a presence on the Internet.


Sales and Marketing


     The Company has opened a website at www.premierclassicart.com through
which it offers for sale a selection of its animation cels. The website
receives an average of approximately 695 hits per week.


     The Company will also market the cels through art galleries, department
stores, other retail outlets and catalogues.


                                       2
<PAGE>

Seasonality

     The Company's management believes that the demand for animation cels is
not subject to seasonal fluctuations.


Employees

     The Company currently employs one executive and, if its revenue increases,
management expects that it will require one to three additional employees.


               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                        CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATION


Plan of Operation

     The Company plans to continue marketing and selling its collection of cels
over the internet and through art galleries, department stores, other retail
outlets and catalogues. The Company anticipates that it will take more than
five years for it to liquidate the collection so as to maximize its value and
to take advantage of opportunities to sell pieces when possible. The Company
has received no revenues from cels to date. An artistic staff employed by the
Company is in the process of preparing additional cels for presentation to the
public. The Company has 3,000 cels ready for presentation and distribution and
expects an additional 25,000 cels to be ready for distribution by January 31,
2000.

     The Company has had its cel collection independently appraised at between
$12 and $20 million by Appraisals by Ashby. However, the Company may not be
able to sell its animation cels at a prices commensurate with the appraised
value of the collection, and management cannot be certain what, if any,
revenues it will generate.


                                   PROPERTY

     On September 3, 1999, the Company entered into a Sublease and Assembly
Agreement with Royal Animated Art, Inc. of California. The agreement provides
for the Company to pay Royal Animated Art, Inc. $1,000 per month for the use of
space in a warehouse facility in order to store the Company's collection of
cels. The agreement also provides for services to be performed by Royal in
connection with the cels and payment by the Company of Royal's costs in
connection with such services plus 15% of it overhead costs.

                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Premier Classic Art, Inc.

     We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Premier Classic Art,
Inc.(the "Company") as of November 30, 1999, May 31, 1999 and May 31, 1998, and
the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficiency), and
cash flows for the six months ended November 30, 1999 and 1998 and the years
ended May 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. 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 audit.

     We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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 audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

     In our opinion, such financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Premier Classic
Art, Inc. at November 30, 1999, May 31, 1999 and May 31, 1998 and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for the six months ended November 30,
1999 and 1998 and the years ended May 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully explained in Note 1 of
Notes to Financial Statements, the Company needs to obtain additional financing
and sell its inventory to liquidate its debts that are in default and support
the Company's overhead. These uncertainties raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these
uncertainties.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
     ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Organization

     Premier Classic Art, Inc. (the "Company") formerly Pet-Con Industries,
Inc. previously manufactured recyclable containers and bottles for sale to
private label grocery product manufacturers and private label food packers. The
Company discontinued operations in June 1995. On September 1, 1999 the Company
changed its name and is currently engaged in the marketing of original,
hand-painted production animation cels through a variety of outlets throughout
the United States.


Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

     The Company is currently in default on its long-term debt from prior
operating activities and operating activities have just commenced under new
management.

     The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependant upon its
ability to obtain needed working capital through additional equity and/or debt
financing and its ability to market its inventory. Management is actively
seeking additional capital to liquidate its current obligations. There is no
assurance that additional capital will be obtained or the Company will be able
to sell its current inventory. These uncertainties raise substantial doubt
about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

     The financial statements do not include any adjustments relative to the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification
of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue
as a going concern.


Use of Estimates

     The preparation of the 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
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 those estimates.


Marketable Securities

     The Company classifies its investment in equity securities as "available
for sale", and accordingly, reflects unrealized losses, net of deferred taxes,
as a separate component of stockholders' equity (deficiency).

     The fair values of marketable securities are estimated based on quoted
market prices. Realized gains or losses from the sales of marketable securities
are based on the specific identification method.


Concentration of Credit Risk

     Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash
investments. The Company places its temporary cash investments with quality
financial institutions and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure
with any on financial institution.


Reverse Stock Split

     Effective September 1, 1999 the Board of Directors approved a
one-for-fifty reverse stock split of its common stock. All references in the

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
     ACCOUNTING POLICIES  -- (Continued)

Prepaid Expenses


     Prepaid expenses consist primarily of a three year consulting agreement in
the amount of $500,000 which was paid in cash by the Company in September 1999.
Consulting expense charged to operations for the six months ended November 30,
1999 and 1998 was $41,667 and -0-, respectively. For the years ending May 31,
1999, 1998 and 1997, there was no consulting expense.


Inventories


     Inventories, consisting of finished animated cels, were acquired as part
of the acquisition and are stated using the discounted market value of the
common stock issued in exchange for the inventory.


Amortization of Intangibles


     Goodwill represents related costs over the value assigned to the net
tangible assets acquired. Goodwill is amortized on a straight line basis over
12 months. Amortization for the six months ended November 30, 1999 and 1998 was
$40,329 and -0-, respectively. For the years ending May 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997
there was no amortization expense.


Stock-Based Compensation


     Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS
No. 123). The standard encourages, but does not require, companies to recognize
compensation expense for grants of stock, stock options and other equity
instruments to employees based on fair value accounting rules. The Company has
adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123.


Earnings Per Common Share


     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per
Share", which requires companies to present basic earnings per share ("EPS")
and diluted earnings per share instead of the primary and fully diluted EPS
that was required. The new standard requires additional information disclosures
and also makes certain modifications to the currently applicable EPS
calculations defined in Accounting Principles Board No. 15.

     Basic and diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net earnings by the
weighted average number of common and potential common shares during the year.
Potential common shares are excluded from the loss per share calculation.
because the effect would be antidilutive. Potential common shares relate to the
preferred stock that is convertible into common stock, convertible debt and
outstanding warrants. The number of potential common shares outstanding were
701,810, 59,064 and 59,064 as of November 30, 1999, May 31, 1999 and May 31,
1998, respectively.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


     At November 30, 1999, the fair values of cash, other current assets,
accounts payable, accrued interest and other accrued liabilities approximated
their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
The estimated fair values of the convertible debt subject to fair value
disclosures was determined by multiplying the number of common shares the debt
is convertible into by the quoted market price of the Company's Common Stock at
November 30, 1999.

</TABLE>

     There were no realized gains or losses for the six months ended November
30, 1999 and 1998 or the years ended May 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.

3. ACQUISITION

     On September 8, 1999, the Company acquired the assets, consisting of
inventory of original, hand-painted production animation cels, of Cool Classic,
Inc., a subsidiary of Joe Cool Collectibles, Inc. for 3,069,788 shares of the
Company's common stock, which represents approximately 40% of the total
outstanding shares of the Company.

     The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting and includes the operations of the acquired entity from September 8,
1999 through September 30, 1999. The assets were recorded at fair value based
on a fairness opinion obtained by the Company from Davsam Consultants, Inc.
since the fair value of stock of the Company was not readily determinable. The
fair value of the stock was determined by using a discounted market value. The
asset of inventory was recorded at $5,372,130. Goodwill of approximately
$167,000 reflects related costs over the value assigned to the net tangible
assets acquired. The Company has not included any proforma unaudited results of
operations as the acquired entity had no operations prior to acquisition.

4. DEBT

     Short-term debt consisted of the following: On September 3, 1999, the
Company issued a $775,000 principle 101/2% convertible note due September 3,
2000. Interest is payable monthly, commencing in December 1999 and payable in
arrears from September 1999. The note is convertible into 250,000 shares of the
Company's common stock, at the option of the holder, at a conversion price of
$3.10 per share. The convertible note contains a provision for an automatic
conversion if the closing bid of the common stock is greater than or equal to
$5.50 per share for twenty consecutive trading days. In connection with the
execution of this note, the Company sold the holder 100,000 shares of the
Company's restricted common stock for $.001 per share (which was below fair
market value) and a warrant to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company's common
stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. This transaction resulted in
additional interest expense of $9,900.

     The holder of this note received a first priority security in the
Company's inventory and an insurance policy in the amount of $1.5 million,
naming the holder as an additional insurer.

6. INCOME TAXES

     The Company has a net operating loss ("NOL") carryforward of approximately
$900,000 expiring in various years through 2014. The Company has not reflected
any benefit of such NOL carryforward in the accompanying financial statements
in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS 109) as the realization of this deferred
tax benefit is not more than likely.

     The Tax Reform Act of 1986 provided for a limitation on the life of NOL
carryforwards, following certain ownership changes. As a result of transactions
in the Company's common stock during the six months ended November 30, 1999, a
change in ownership of greater than 50%, as defined, has occurred. Under such
circumstances, the potential benefits from utilization of tax carryforwards may
be substantially limited or reduced on an annual basis.

     There is no provision for income taxes for the six months ended November
30, 1999 and for the years ended May 31, 1999, as the Company had net losses.

     The tax effect of the net operating loss carryforward on deferred income
taxes at November 30, 1999 and May 31, 1999 was as follows:



                                  Temporary

7. EXTRAORDINARY GAINS

     In August 1999, the Company issued common shares to extinguish long-term
debt and accrued interest. In connection with these transactions the Company
recorded extraordinary gains of approximately $305,000 ($.23 per share) for the
six months ended November 30, 1999.

Leases

     On September 3, 1999, the Company signed a sublease agreement for a

related charges.

     Future minimum lease payments are as follows:

$3,000 and -0-, respectively. For the years ended May 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997,
there was no rent expense.

9. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     In December 1999, the Company issued 4,000 shares of common stock for
payment of $30,725 of debt and $19,573 of accrued interest. This transaction
will result in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $49,898 in the subsequent
period. In December 1999, the Company also negotiated payment of $13,000 of
principal and 12,914 of accrued interest for the remaining long term debt.
