ITEM 1: FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
The response to Item 1 has been submitted as a separate section of this Report
beginning on page F-1.
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Information contained in this Report contains forward-looking statements such as
statements of the Company's plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, that
can often be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as
"may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "intend," "could,"
"estimates," "is being," "goal" or other variations of these terms or comparable
terminology. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and
actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to
materially differ include known and unknown risks, including, without
limitation, the early stage of the e-commerce market, the Company's ability to
manage its growth, the ability of the Company to develop and successfully market
new products, the Company's ability to acquire control of and successfully
integrate the operations of Communicate.com Inc., an Alberta corporation
("Communicate Alberta"), the attraction and retention of key technical and other
personnel, rapid technological change and intense competition. The cautionary
statements made in this Report should be read as being applicable to all
forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this Report. The Company's
actual results could differ materially from those discussed herein.
Plan of Operation
The Company's plan of operation is to seek, investigate, and if such
investigation warrants, acquire an interest in one or more business
opportunities presented to it. Although the Company is not required to restrict
its search to any specific business, industry, or geographical location, it has
recently decided to focus its search on companies engaged in the electronic
commerce ("e-commerce") industry. Management is currently in the process of
identifying suitable candidates for acquisition and, as previously reported,
entered into a share exchange agreement to acquire a controlling interest in
Communicate.com Inc., an Alberta corporation ("Communicate Alberta"), and in
anticipation of the acquisition the Company changed its name from "Troyden
Corporation" to Communicate.com Inc. Subsequently, the parties to the share
exchange agreement were unable to consummate the acquisition; however, since
that time, the Company recommenced negotiations with Bryan Liew, the holder of a
majority of the outstanding capital stock of Communicate Alberta, and on
November 8, 2000, entered into an agreement to acquire the capital stock of
Communicate Alberta held by Mr. Liew. See "Acquisition of Communicate Alberta,"
below. However, if management subsequently decides that any other companies
under consideration are not suitable acquisition candidates, or if a suitable
candidate in another industry is located, management may complete transactions
with another company or companies including those in other industries.

<PAGE>
Since its inception on October 10, 1995, the Company has engaged in no
significant operations other than undertaking organizational activities, filing
a registration statement for small business issuers on Form 10-SB with the SEC,
complying with periodical SEC reporting requirements and attempting to identify
suitable merger or acquisition candidates. During the period ended June 30,
2000, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire control of
Communicate.com Inc., an Alberta corporation. However, that agreement was
terminated and the Company subsequently entered into an agreement pursuant to
which it acquired a majority interest in such company. See, "Acquisition of
Communicate Alberta." Except for such agreements, the Company had not signed any
letters of intent or entered into any agreements with suitable acquisition
candidates. Except for an aggregate of $132,000 in management fees recognized
more than two years ago, the Company has generated no revenue from operations
since its inception.
In the coming quarters, the Company intends to continue its efforts to identify
suitable acquisition candidates, and, when a suitable candidate is found, to
complete a business acquisition. The Company anticipates incurring a loss for
the fiscal year as a result of expenses associated with (1) locating and
evaluating acquisition candidates; (2) completing one or more business
acquisitions; (3) complying with the reporting requirements of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934; and (4) attending to general and administrative matters.
Other than through the operations of Communicate Alberta, the Company does not
expect to generate revenues until additional business acquisitions have been
completed. Further, the Company may continue to operate at a loss after
completing any acquisitions, depending on the performance of the acquired
businesses.
In order to cover the costs described above, the Company believes that it will
require substantial additional capital. This additional capital will be required
whether or not the Company is able to complete any additional business
acquisition during the current fiscal year. Further, once additional
acquisitions are completed, the Company's need for additional financing is
likely to increase substantially. The Company expects to raise additional
capital through the sale or issuance of additional securities. To the extent
that additional funds are required to cover Company expenses, the Company may
seek additional funds in the form of loans from financial institutions and other
sources. However, there can be no assurance that any additional funds, whether
generated through the issuance of securities or through borrowings, will be
available to the Company to allow it to cover its expenses.
Since inception, the Company has financed its operations almost exclusively from
the original sale of shares, from shareholder loans, and from a loan in the
amount of $150,000 from Pacific Capital Markets Inc. to the Company in September
2000.
Acquisition of Communicate Alberta
Acquisition. Pursuant to a Purchase Agreement entered into on November 8, 2000
(the "Purchase Agreement"), the Company acquired 11,714,080 shares of the
capital stock of Communicate Alberta, from Bryan Liew. In consideration for the
Communicate Alberta
4
<PAGE>
shares, the Company (i) issued an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of its Common
Stock to the Mr. Liew, (ii) made a cash payment of $400,000 to Mr. Liew, and
(iii) agreed to either (a) make additional cash payments totaling an aggregate
of $1,100,000 to Mr. Liew, or (b) if the Company is unable or fails to make such
payments, to issue up to an additional 2,200,000 shares of Common Stock to Mr.
Liew. The Company financed the acquisition through a loan provided by Pacific
Capital Markets Inc. providing for up to $1,500,000 to be used solely for the
acquisition of the shares from Mr. Liew.
Business. Communicate Alberta owns and operates a network of websites and
uniform resource locators ("URLs") that share a common technology platform and
infrastructure. Communicate Alberta is assembling its roster of more than 30
intuitive, generic domains in such categories as Health & Beauty (such as
Makeup.com and Perfume.com) and Sports & Recreation (such as Wrestling.com and
Boxing.com) into a network of online businesses built with the Internet's best
technologies from providers such as Oracle, Sun, BEA and Interwoven. The
operating businesses in the Communicate Alberta network share a common platform
and infrastructure, creating a highly scalable, adaptable and efficient way for
Communicate Alberta's partners to add branding and e-commerce channels to their
online strategy, while also capitalizing on the generic domain names' ability to
intuitively attract customers. Through the network's economies of scale,
Communicate Alberta can enable its strategic partners to quickly and easily
participate in e-commerce much faster and more cost effectively. Communicate
Alberta's business model for these operating businesses include multiple revenue
streams via e-commerce, data mining, infrastructure/shared services, and
sponsorships/advertising. Communicate Alberta is also creating a ventures group
designed to maximize value within its portfolio of 400 other domain names by
strategically participating and investing these assets into other companies'
business plans and operations.
Communicate Alberta had revenues generated during its last two fiscal years from
its previous business operations as an Internet consulting firm, prior to
selling its Internet consulting contracts in January of 2000. Communicate
Alberta is now in the early stages of operating a network of related online
businesses.
Key targets for Communicate Alberta's products are established non-Internet
businesses that are leaders in their respective industries, where Communicate
Alberta will offer a long-term, strategic partnership in exchange for
commitments which could include cash, marketing exposure, access to limited
products, and business development activities. Another related target for
Communicate Alberta's products are end-consumers who will purchase the
diversified products and services that are represented by Communicate Alberta's
various operating online businesses.
Distribution Methods. Communicate Alberta will distribute its products and
services over the Internet, and through distribution partners. The main product,
the technology platform and infrastructure, is centrally available to strategic
partners and is accessed by end-consumers through web sites which are housed and
monitored in a secure data center in Vancouver, Canada. The end-consumer
products sold through Communicate Alberta's operating businesses will be
distributed and fulfilled either directly by the operating business itself or
through distribution partners around the world.
As a result of the acquisition of Communicate Alberta, the Company currently has
three full-time employees.

[A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY]
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - GENERAL MATTERS
THE COMPANY
On August 24, 2000, the Company changed its name from Troyden Corporation to
Communicate.com, Inc.
Troyden Corporation has existed as a development stage company which is seeking
business acquisition opportunities.
GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company
will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets
and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the financial statements do not
purport to present realizable or settlement values. The Company incurred net
losses of $14,451 and $734 during the nine month periods ended September 30,
2000 and 1999 respectively, and the Company's total liabilities exceeded its
total assets by $30,836 at September 30, 2000. These conditions 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 those uncertainties.
INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair representation have been included. Operating
results for the nine month period ending September 30, 2000, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31,
2000. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes
included in the Company's report on Form 10-SB.
NOTE 2 - STOCKHOLDER ADVANCE
The Stockholder Advance represents amounts lent by the former President of the
Company. This advance is non-interest bearing and is due on demand.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 3 - COMMON STOCK
On December 8, 1999, 10,000 shares of common stock were issued as compensation
to a director for services provided as a board member and was recorded at the
fair market value on that date of $1,000. The Company has no stock option plans,
warrants, or convertible debt, therefore, the basic net loss per share is equal
to the diluted net loss per share.
Effective June 27, 2000 the Company forward split its issued and outstanding
shares of common stock from 310,000 shares to 9,300,000 shares.
NOTE 4 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Subsequent to the period end, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire
52% of the capital stock of Communicate.com Inc. ("Communicate Alberta"), in
consideration for 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock, and cash
payments totaling an aggregate of $1,500,000. If the Company fails to make these
cash payments it has agreed to issue up to an additional 2,200,000 shares of its
common stock to the vendor. The Company will finance the acquisition through a
loan provided by Pacific Capital Markets Inc., providing for up to $1,500,000 to
be used soley for the acquisition of the Communicate Alberta shares. Communicate
Alberta owns more than 400 websites and is in the early stages of operating a
network of related online businesses.
