REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Plan Administrators of the
MindSpring Enterprises, Inc.
401(k) Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of MINDSPRING ENTERPRISES, INC. 401(k) PLAN as of December 31, 1999 and
1998 and the related statement of changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the year ended December 31, 1999. These financial statements and
the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the Plan's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
the schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as
of December 31, 1999 and 1998 and the changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the year ended December 31, 1999 in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is
not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary
information required by the Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SCHEDULE
DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998
1. PLAN DESCRIPTION
The following description of the MindSpring Enterprises, Inc. 401(k) Plan
(the "Plan") is provided for general information purposes only.
Participants should refer to the plan document for a more complete
description of the Plan's provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan established by Mindspring
Enterprises, Inc. (the "Company"), effective September 1, 1996. All
employees of the Company who have completed one month of service are
eligible to participate in the Plan. In 1999, the Company acquired certain
assets of ICG Communications, Inc. ("ICG"). In connection with the
acquisition, certain employees of ICG were eligible to participate in the
Plan effective July 1, 1999. Former ICG employees may also elect to
transfer their account balances from the ICG Communications, Inc. Employee
Savings Plan to the Plan. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"), as amended.
Effective January 1, 1999, the Company adopted Statement of Position
("SOP") 99-3, "Accounting for and Reporting of Certain Defined Contribution
Plan Investments and Other Disclosure Matters." SOP 99-3 establishes new
disclosure requirements for defined contribution plans.
PLAN ADMINISTRATION
Overall responsibility for administering the Plan rests with the Plan's
administrative committee which is appointed by the board of directors of
the Company. The Plan's custodian is responsible for the management and
control of the Plan's assets and has responsibility for the investment and
management of such assets. Effective March 1, 1999, the Company appointed
Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (the "Custodian" or "Great-
West") to serve as Custodian of the Plan, replacing Manulife Financial. The
Company also appointed Norwest Bank to manage the Company Stock Fund,
replacing JC Bradford and Company. Selected employees of the Company serve
as the Plan's trustees.
CONTRIBUTIONS
Participants may elect to contribute, in 1% increments, up to 15% of pretax
annual compensation, as defined by the Plan, subject to certain limitations
under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company's matching contribution is
determined annually by the board of directors, not to exceed a
participant's contribution up to 6% of their annual compensation. The
Company may also elect to make a discretionary profit-sharing contribution
for nonhighly compensated employees, which is determined and approved by
the Company's board of directors on an annual basis. The Company made
neither a matching contribution nor a discretionary contribution for the
years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998.
<PAGE>
VESTING
Participants are fully vested in their contributions and the earnings
thereon. Vesting in company matching contributions and discretionary
profit-sharing contributions is based on years of continuous service.
Participants vest according to the following schedule:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
VESTED
PERCENTAGE
----------
<S> <C>
Years of service:
Less than two 0%
Two 50
Three 75
Four 100
</TABLE>
Participants automatically become fully vested, regardless of their length of
service, upon attainment of age 59 1/2, retirement due to disability, death, or
termination of the Plan.
ROLLOVERS FROM OTHER PLANS
A participant who has received a distribution of his/her interest in a qualified
retirement plan may elect to deposit all or any portion of the eligible amount
of such distribution as a rollover to the Plan.
FORFEITURES
Termination of employment for reasons other than normal retirement, disability,
or death results in forfeiture of the nonvested portion of the market value of
employer contributions. Forfeitures are used to reduce future employer matching
contributions. The Plan did not have any forfeited accounts during the years
ended December 31, 1999 and 1998.
BENEFITS
Upon normal retirement, death, disability, or termination of service, a
participant or his/her beneficiary may elect to receive a lumpsum distribution
equal to his/her vested account balance in one of several ways. A participant
with a vested account balance exceeding $5,000 may receive either a lumpsum
payment in cash, cash and shares of company stock held in the participant's
account, or a combination of one lumpsum payment and annual, semiannual,
quarterly, or monthly cash installments. A participant with a vested balance
less than $5,000 may receive the vested balance of his/her account in the form
of a lumpsum payment or shares of company stock held in their account. In
addition, hardship distributions are permitted if certain criteria are met, as
defined by the Plan.
PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS
Each participant account is credited with the participant's contributions and
related company matching and discretionary profit-sharing contributions as well
as the participant's share of the Plan's income and any related administrative
expenses. Allocations of income and expenses are based on each participant's
account balance relative to the total of all participants' account balances.
INVESTMENT OPTIONS
Participants may elect to direct their contributions into the following
investment options and may change their investment elections quarterly. Company
matching contributions are allocated based on the participants' investment
elections for their contributions. Effective March 1, 1999, participants may
direct
-2-
<PAGE>
their contributions into any combination of the following investment
funds and portfolios offered under a pooled separate account with the Custodian:
- Profile Series I (Aggressive)
- Profile Series II (Moderately Aggressive)
- Profile Series III (Moderate)
- Profile Series IV (Moderately Conservative)
- Profile Series V (Conservative)
The Profile Series of investment portfolios are fashioned to achieve the
risk-return ratio desired by the participant. For participants who choose a
Profile Series investment option, the Custodian automatically allocates
contributions to an appropriate combination of the following available funds:

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally

estimates and assumptions that affect the accompanying financial statements

-7-
<PAGE>
INVESTMENT VALUATION
The Plan's investments in pooled separate accounts are carried at fair
value. Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at
the last reported sales price on the last business day of the year;
investments traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for
which no sale was reported on the last day of the plan year are valued at
the last reported bid price.
The Plan presents in the statement of changes in net assets available for
plan benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of
investments which consists of realized gains (losses) from the sale of
investments as well as changes in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)
during the year.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
The Company pays all administrative expenses of the Plan, except for the
administrative costs of commissions and loan processing fees.
3. INVESTMENTS
The fair values of individual assets that represent 5% or more of the
Plan's net assets as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 are as follows:

4. TAX STATUS
The Plan received a favorable determination letter from the Internal
Revenue Service on December 18, 1998. This letter confirmed that the Plan
is designed in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code (the "IRC") as of that date. The plan administrator believes
that the plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable
requirements of the IRC. Therefore, the plan
-8-
<PAGE>
administrator believes that the Plan was qualified and the related trust
was taxexempt as of the financial statement dates.
5. PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to
terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of plan
termination, participants will become fully vested in their account
balances.
6. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On February 4, 2000, the Company and EarthLink Network Inc. merged into
EarthLink Inc. in a transaction accounted for as a "pooling of interests."
Each outstanding share of EarthLink Network Inc. securities was exchanged
for 1.615 shares of the equivalent security of the new company and each
outstanding share of Mindspring common stock was exchanged for one share of
the common stock of the new company. Other outstanding securities of the
companies were converted on the same basis. The effect of the merger with
EarthLink Network Inc. on the Plan has been presently determined.
