PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

INTRODUCTION AND HISTORY

The Company is a New York Corporation that was organized in 1968. In
January 1989, the Company and nine of its affiliated subsidiaries filed for
protection under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The Company
emerged from chapter 11 pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization in November 1994.
In 1997, the Board of Directors undertook a restructuring of senior management.
The new management included the appointment of a representative of the Company's
largest shareholder as Chief Executive Officer. New management conducted a
review of the Company's business and decided to focus on three areas of
operations, and to dispose of unrelated lines of business, including
telecommunications-related business units and its laser printing business. The
three areas of business it focused on were leasing of certain capital equipment,
buying and selling commercial aircraft and engines, and specialized financing
services.

In August 1999, the Company announced that its subsidiary, CIS Corporation,
would no longer enter into new equipment leases and had sold a substantial
portion of its remaining lease portfolio. Since then, the Company has been
disposing of the balance of its remaining lease portfolio. The Company also
announced that it would focus on developing and commercializing specialized
software for the securities industry. In July 2000, the Company, citing market
conditions, among other reasons, announced it was exiting the aviation business
to focus its resources on the continued development and commercializing of an
Internet-enabled electronic securities processing software platform which would
use proprietary technology and which would be adapted to changes in the
securities industry including operational changes related to increased volume,
the ability to effect trades through the Internet, Electronic Crossing Networks,
decimalization, expanded trading hours, various rule changes and the shift from
settling trades in three days to settling trades in one day.

2
<PAGE>
SECURITIES PROCESSING SOFTWARE BUSINESS

As noted above the Company is continuing its focus on developing and
commercializing software for the securities industry. Originally the product was
designed to provide a trading portal to allow institutional traders to automate
essentially all steps of the trading process across various trading platforms,
and to find optimal price executions. After further research, design and
development the product was redesigned and adapted to focus on the securities
processing business of clearing firms generally, especially in connection with
proposed shortening of trading cycles from settlement occurring three days after
the trade date to one day after the trade date. This change is commonly referred
to as "T+1". The newly created subsidiary that was formed to engage in this line
of business, CIS Portal Corporation, changed its name to T1Xpert.com Corp.
("T1Xpert.com") to more properly reflect its business focus.

The Company believes that there is a substantial window of opportunity
surrounding the planned transition to T+1 for a new entrant who is able to offer
a complete real-time processing and settlement system that includes operational
risk management tools. T1Xpert.com is in the early stages of developing what
management believes will be a complete real-time processing and settlement
solution encompassing straight through processing, process control, and
operational risk management, and plans to release an early test system by the
end of the 2000 calendar year. There can be no assurance, however, that the
Company's product goals will be met or, if they are, that the resulting products
will meet current expectations. In addition, there is currently no established
market for these services and there can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to create a market for its products.

CUSTOMERS AND MARKETING

As part of the marketing plans of T1Xpert.com, the Company may seek to
engage in strategic market relationships with vendors, brokers, dealers or other
market participants. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will
be able to establish the necessary strategic market relationships, or, if such
relationships are established, that they will be successful.

The current marketing strategy for T1Xpert.com is focused on being an early
entrant with a new product that management believes will solve the straight
through processing and T+1 problems. Establishing early product and firm
credibility will be essential to the success of the business. The Company will
be unable to establish such credibility if testing of the product does not meet
expectations or the Company is unable to meet current product timing and
development goals. Furthermore, technological changes may make the Company's
product obsolete, requiring a complete technological overhaul of the product or
allowing another entrant with more up-to-date technology to take the lead in the
industry.

The Company currently intends to rely on developing business through the
existing contacts and industry relationships of its senior management and other
key personnel. It is hoped that the development partners will become early
customers. There is a risk that, if the Company is unable to develop necessary
relationships, or if members of senior management and other key personnel leave
the Company, the Company will be unable to successfully develop its T1Xpert.com
business.

The Company intends that, in order to induce potential clients to test the
product, T1Xpert.com may provide incentives to such clients by offering them
equity interests, special investment opportunities and product discounts. There
can be no assurance, however, that potential clients will be willing to take
such incentives in exchange for allowing T1Xpert.com to test its products at
their businesses.

T1Xpert.com currently has no clients, though it has been engaged in
discussions with potential clients. There can be no assurance that such
discussions will lead to successful client relationships.

As the Company is in the initial stages of developing its T1Xpert.com
business, the product has not yet been released or tested for functionality.
There is currently no demonstrated market for this product and the Company does
not have any contracted clients.

<PAGE>
The financial statements contained herein do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

COMPETITION

T1Xpert.com may face competition from systems developed by other, much
larger companies and its success may depend on the ability of the Company to
position itself as the preferred trading facilitation service provider for
institutional users. This, in turn, will depend on the speed with which the
Company can develop and commercialize its products to its target users.
Potential competitors may have access to greater resources or better technology.

The Company's continued ability to compete effectively is also materially
affected by its ability to attract and retain well-qualified personnel and by
the availability of financing on competitive terms and conditions. Many of the
Company's potential competitors may have substantially greater financial
resources, economies of scale and lower capital costs than the Company and, as a
result, no assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in
operating profitably or in obtaining access to competitive capital sources or
other means of financing its product development.

The Company believes it will compete primarily on its use of the most
current technology platforms, its understanding of the securities industry, its
capability to meet customer needs, its flexibility in structuring transaction
terms, its reliability in meeting commitments and the degree of knowledge and
competence of key employees and advisors.

PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

The Company currently has no patents. It has applied for registration of
T1Xpert.com as a registered trademark. The Company's ability to succeed will
depend on the development of related proprietary technologies and specialized
processes either alone or in conjunction with others. These proprietary
technologies and processes will require the Company to secure patents and
trademarks to protect its systems and services. The Company may use licenses
from other relevant technology that may be important to the Company's business.

FEDERAL REGULATION

T1Xpert.com is not a broker dealer, nor does it engage in activities that
management believes require it to register as such. At present there is no known
regulation governing T1Xpert.com's activities, other than those that affect all
businesses generally. It does intend, however, to provide services to registered
broker dealers, and assist them with complying with various laws and
regulations. Its product offering is intended to assist broker dealers in
meeting a variety of such regulations. Failure to properly develop products in
compliance with such regulation could have a negative impact on the Company's
business.

EMPLOYEES

T1Xpert.com currently has nine employees, including seven full time
programmers. It also retains two consultants as programmers. The other employees
are its president and its chief operating officer each of whom works full time
on the T1Xpert.com business. In addition, employees of the Company provide
services to T1Xpert.com including executive, accounting, clerical, and legal
services.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Through its wholly owned subsidiary, CIS Air Corporation, a Delaware
corporation ("CIS Air"), the Company participated in the worldwide market for
the sale and leasing of used, commercial aircraft and aircraft engines. In
recent periods, CIS Air's activities have consisted primarily of acquiring
aircraft engines

4
<PAGE>
and then selling, leasing or selling them subject to lease. CIS Air financed its
portfolio acquisitions with cash flows from operations or through borrowings
under CIS Air's revolving credit facility.

Engines, which were acquired from brokers, airlines and dealers, were used
and frequently in need of substantial repair or refurbishing. The Company, when
necessary, contracted with outside vendors to complete this upgrade process
before reselling or leasing the equipment to its customers. Aircraft acquired by
the Company were in various stages of airworthiness. Repairs and upgrades to the
aircraft were sometimes required prior to leasing the aircraft. CIS Air's leases
required the lessee to maintain the aircraft in accordance with FAA-approved
maintenance programs and contained specific return conditions.

In July 2000, the Company announced that it had sold a portion of its engine
portfolio and had placed the balance out for competitive bid. Proceeds of any
sales will be used to pay down CIS Air's existing credit facility with its
lender. Any proceeds remaining after repayment of debt will be retained by the
Company for general business purposes. As of August 23, 2000 the balance on the
credit facility was $1,424,165 and the Company plans to continue to dispose of
assets in order to pay down the remaining balance. The Company announced that
completion of the sale of its engine portfolio will conclude its exit from the
aviation business. The Company is treating the aviation business as a
discontinued operation with appropriate disclosure and valuation under
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

In addition to CIS Air's sales and leasing activities, a subsidiary of CIS
Air, CIS Aircraft Partners, Inc., had managed a portfolio of commercial aircraft
on behalf of two publicly held limited partnerships, JetStream, L.P. and
JetStream II, L.P. since their inception in 1987 and 1988 respectively. As
managing general partner, CIS Aircraft Partners, Inc. acquired the portfolio on
behalf of the partnerships, arranged leases of the aircraft and engaged in
ongoing management activities including remarketing to preserve and protect the
value of the portfolio. The payment of management fees to CIS Aircraft
Partners, Inc. from Jet Stream, L.P. was suspended in December 1997, and the
payment of management fees from JetStream II, L.P. was suspended in
September 1998, as under the terms of the respective limited partnership
agreements, these fees are subordinate in right of payment to a preferred rate
of return to the limited partners.

The general partners of the JetStream Partnerships solicited and received
unitholders' approval for the liquidation of the JetStream Partnerships and for
the payment of a marketing fee upon the sale of each of the Partnerships'
assets. The marketing of the assets began in January 2000 and all the assets of
the portfolios except one aircraft held by JetStream L.P. were sold by the
Partnerships. JetStream L.P. is suing the lessee to regain possession of the
remaining aircraft and aircraft records and intends to sell the aircraft upon
repossession.

OTHER FINANCE ACTIVITIES

On July 3, 1997, the Company announced that it had entered into a Joint
Investment Agreement with Emmes Investment Management Co. LLC to provide up to
$8 million in high-yield, short-term financing for commercial real estate
transactions. At May 31, 2000, the Company's investment in such transactions was
approximately $703,224.

From time to time the Company makes loans or loan guarantees to borrowers
with profiles that do not meet the requirements of traditional lending
institutions. The Company's determination whether to make the loan will depend
on a number of factors, some of which include: an evaluation of the borrower,
the purpose of the loan, collateral held by the Company, if any, the nature of
the Company's security interest and the time expected to repayment. Based on the
unique nature of the loan the Company may receive fees, equity interests or
other forms of remuneration in addition to interest. The Company has made
several such loans and loan guarantees, which the Company is in the process of
managing, collecting and liquidating. In exchange for a loan guarantee made by
the Company, the Company received warrants in a high technology company, which
the Company currently carries at zero valuation. The amount of warrants, their
valuation and pricing will be determined upon successful completion of the next
round of financing to

5
<PAGE>
be conducted by the technology company. The Company has valued these warrants at
zero as there are no reasonable means to estimate current value.

FINANCING

The Company's financing strategy had been primarily to use its own capital,
except in the aviation subsidiary where the Company also has a collateralized,
revolving loan agreement with an institution to provide lease and inventory
financing for aircraft engines for CIS Air in the amount of $10,000,000. The
facility bears interest at prime plus 1/4% and expires in December 2000. In
connection with the Company's decision to exit the aviation business it has been
paying down the debt associated with the engines. The Company believes that
proceeds from sale of these engines will be sufficient to pay off the debt.

The Company's expansion into a new line of business will place significant
demands on its current financial resources. The Company will need to arrange for
additional financing to aid in the development and commercialization of the
securities processing software. The Company anticipates that it will seek to
raise funds from outside sources in exchange for an interest in T1Xpert.com.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

As T1Xpert.com is in the development stage it has no customers. Initially
the Company anticipates that it may have only a few customers. The Company
believes that it competes in an industry in which many of its potential
customers are under regulatory guidelines which require that such entity
maintains a prescribed level of capital in the operations of its business.

Of the Company's notes receivable balance $2,083,000 is owed by one customer
in the aviation business. Thus, the Company is directly affected by the well
being of this one company and the airline industry in general. The credit risk
associated with this customer is mitigated by the note being collateralized;
however a substantial portion of such collateral is outside the United States,
thereby creating potential difficulties in the recovery of collateral in case of
default.

EMPLOYEES

As of June 30, 2000, the Company had 23 full-time employees, none of whom
were employed under a collective bargaining agreement. Ten of these employees
work in administration. It is anticipated that with the exiting of the Company
from the aviation business a substantial number of these employees will no
longer be necessary. Estimated termination costs have been taken into account in
discontinued operations. In connection with T1Xpert.com, the Company's plan is
to add employees, but it may be hampered if there are limitations in the pool of
eligible available personnel in the technology job market in which the Company
operates.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company's executive offices are located in New York, New York. The
Company maintains branch offices located in Syracuse, New York and in Los
Angeles, California. The Company anticipates relinquishing the leases on the
Syracuse and Los Angeles branch offices within the current fiscal year in
connection with its exiting from the aviation business. These leases occupy in
the aggregate approximately 7,000 square feet, (6,000 in New York City) for an
aggregate monthly rental of approximately $15,000, $14,000 of which is related
to the New York City office.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

CIS Air Corporation ("CIS Air") has three actions pending against Eastwind
Airlines, a lessee of aircraft and engines.

6
<PAGE>
1. On Sept 24, 1999 CIS Air, along with two other creditors, filed a
petition for involuntary bankruptcy against Eastwind in the Bankruptcy
Court in Delaware asserting a claim of $4,623,383 consisting primarily of
non payment of aircraft lease payments and reserves, violations of the
return provisions, non payment for engine leases and non return of a
damaged engine. Subsequently three other creditors executed Joinders to
the Petition. On March 31, 2000 the Court ruled that the numerosity
requirements of the Bankruptcy Code supporting the filing of the
Creditor's petition were met. Trial as to whether Eastwind was paying
their debts as they become due was held and proposed findings of fact and
conclusions of law are due to be filed with the Court by the end of
September 2000.

2. CIS Air previously sued Eastwind in State Court, New York County. That
action is stayed pending resolution of the bankruptcy action.

3. CIS Air commenced an action in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York against UM Holdings, the sole shareholder
of Eastwind, seeking damages in the amount of $4,623,383 based on the
assumption of liability by UM of Eastwind's obligations. The matter is in
the early stages of litigation. The Company is currently in settlement
negotiations concerning all of the actions against Eastwind and UM
Holdings.

On July 24, 2000 CIS Air settled its previously reported lawsuit against
Cigna Insurance in exchange for the payment by Cigna to CIS Air's institutional
lender as loss payee, the full value of the policy less the policy's deductible.

CIS Air filed suit in November 1999 against AeroTurbine Inc., a
Florida-based corporation, in State Court in North Carolina. The suit alleges
that AeroTurbine, in removing hushkits that it had purchased which were annexed
to two CIS owned engines, negligently damaged the CIS engines, thereby causing
CIS to incur expenses in repairing them. AeroTurbine has filed a counterclaim
seeking unspecified damages. The matter is in the discovery phase of litigation.

On March 3, 2000, Dallas AeroSpace, Inc. ("Dallas") of Texas filed suit in
the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against
CIS Air for breach of contract and other causes of action in connection with the
sale of an engine to Dallas in August 1997. Dallas is seeking damages for the
purchase price of the engine in the amount of $1,150,000. CIS Air has denied any
liability to Dallas on any of the causes of action, and has asserted its
defenses. The litigation is in its initial stages.

On April 24, 2000 CIS Air filed suit in the United States District Court for
the Northern District of New York against American Air Ventures, Inc. ("American
Air"), a Florida corporation. The suit seeks reimbursement in connection with
losses incurred in joint venture agreements between the parties for the purchase
and sale of engines. The suit further seeks indemnification from American Air
should CIS Air be found liable to Dallas AeroSpace, because CIS Air purchased
the engine sold to Dallas AeroSpace from American Air. The suit is in the
initial phase of litigation.

On March 7, 2000 CIS Air filed suit against Express One International, Inc.
a Delaware Corporation in The Supreme Court, State of New York, County of New
York. The suits seek damages in an amount no less than $47,500 for engine rent
and maintenance reserve payments and $70,639 for engine repairs. The suit is in
the discovery phase of litigation.

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results
of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto which appear elsewhere in this

historical facts, including but not limited to, statements regarding anticipated
future capital requirements, the Company's future development plans, the
Company's ability to obtain additional debt, equity or other financing, and the
Company's ability to generate cash from operations and further savings from
existing operations, are based on current expectations. These statements are
forward looking in nature and involve a number of risks and uncertainties.
Actual results may differ materially. Among the factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially are the following: the availability of sufficient
capital to finance the Company's business plan on terms satisfactory to the
Company; competitive factors, such as the introduction of new technologies and
competitors that may compete with the Company's T1Xpert.com subsidiary; risks
generally associated with development technology projects, including design,
concept and implementation; risks of the Company in exiting the aviation
business including risks attendant to realizing acceptable value in liquidating
assets; risks attendant to collecting on the Company's notes receivable arising
out of various settlements in the aviation business, risks attendant to the
Company's finance business generally, including the risks of leverage, risks of
borrower default, general economic and real estate market conditions, and
competition for attractive real estate finance investments and pricing pressures
which could affect the value of the Company's assets; changes in labor,
equipment and capital costs; future acquisitions; general business, economic and
regulatory conditions; and the other risk factors described from time to time in
the Company's reports filed with the SEC. The Company wishes to caution readers
not to place undue reliance on any such forward looking statements, which
statements are made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 and, as such, speak only as of the date made. The Company undertakes no

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CONTINUING OPERATIONS

REVENUES

For the three fiscal years ended May 31, 2000, total revenues decreased to
$8.5 million in fiscal 2000 from $8.8 million in fiscal 1999, while increasing
from $6.3 million in fiscal 1998. Equipment sales increased to $4.7 million in
fiscal 2000 from $2.6 million in fiscal 1999, and increased from $1.7 million in
fiscal 1998. With the discontinuation of lease originations in August 1999 and
sale of a substantial portion of the portfolio in fiscal 2000, equipment sales
are expected to be minimal in fiscal 2001. The significant increase (78.3%) in
sales during the fiscal year 2000 is due to the sale of the majority of computer
equipment leases for $2.6 million to one lessee at the end of their lease term
during the third and fourth quarters. The Company recorded a gain of $608,000,
net of remarketing fees in the amount of $155,000 in

9
<PAGE>
fiscal 2000 for sales of previously leased computers. In August 1999, a
substantial portion of the general equipment lease portfolio was sold for
$1.7 million.

Equipment rentals and income from direct financing leases decreased to
$3.0 million in fiscal 2000 from $5.4 million in fiscal 1999 and from
$3.6 million in fiscal 1998. The decrease in fiscal 2000 is chiefly attributable
to the sale of the lease portfolio during the fiscal year 2000. The increase in
fiscal 1999 is mainly due to the increased investment in direct finance leases
made in fiscal 1998 as only 3 months' income was recorded in fiscal 1998 as
compared to 12 months in fiscal 1999 for those leases.

Interest, fees and other income decreased to $750,000 in fiscal 2000 from
$764,000 in fiscal 1999, and decreased from $955,000 in fiscal 1998. Interest on
bank and short term investments, amounted to $309,000 in fiscal 2000 compared to
$162,000 in fiscal year 1999 and $274,000 in fiscal 1998. Interest on notes
receivable decreased to $192,000 in fiscal 2000 from $343,000 in fiscal 1999 and
decreased from $353,000 in fiscal 1998. This decrease is the result of the note
receivable on spare parts inventory being paid down to $78,000 in fiscal 2000
from $675,000 in fiscal 1999.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

Costs and expenses decreased to $10.9 million in fiscal 2000 from
$11.7 million in fiscal 1999 and increased from $7.2 million in fiscal 1998.
Cost of sales increased to $3.7 million in fiscal 2000 from $2.1 million in
fiscal 1999 and from $1.2 million in fiscal 1998. The increase is a direct
result of the 78.3% increase in sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales
for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 was 79.6%, 81.7% and
71.4%, respectively.

Depreciation of rental equipment decreased to $2.4 million in fiscal 2000
from $4.2 million in fiscal 1999 and from $2.1 million in fiscal 1998. This
decrease is directly related to the sale of $3.7 million of rental equipment
during the fiscal year 2000. The increase in depreciation expense in fiscal 1999
is directly related to the addition of $14.6 million in rental equipment in
March 1998 resulting in an increase in depreciation of $2.2 million in fiscal
1999.

Interest expense decreased to $16,000 in fiscal 2000 from $127,000 in fiscal
1999 and decreased from $272,000 in fiscal 1998. These variances reflect the
changes in the average debt outstanding during the respective periods. In fiscal
1999 $1.6 million of debt was paid off in conjunction with an equipment sale.

Other operating expenses decreased to $612,000 in fiscal 2000 from
$1,324,000 in fiscal 1999 and increased from $403,000 in fiscal 1998. The
Company anticipates that these expenses which are principally related to leased
equipment will decrease as the Company liquidates its lease portfolio. In fiscal
2000, re-marketing fees of $155,000 were recorded as a result of sale of
computer equipment. A bad debt expense of $46,000 and an inventory write off of
$63,000 were recorded in fiscal 2000. In fiscal 1999, an inventory write-off of
$719,000 and a bad debt expense of $200,000 were recorded due to the bankruptcy
of a large lessee of the Company. There were no corresponding expenses in fiscal
2000. With the discontinuation of lease originations in August 1999, operating
expenses associated with leased equipment are expected to be minimal in fiscal
2001.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $4,063,000 in
fiscal 2000 from $3,940,000 in fiscal 1999 and from $3,256,000 in fiscal 1998.
In fiscal 2000 the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was
mainly attributable to the startup Company T1Xpert.com's expenses which amounted
to $1,611,000 during the fiscal year. This increase was offset by a decrease in
general and administrative expenses in the amount of $1,470,000. These decreases
were principally due to cost containment efforts and staff reduction between the
periods. The increase in fiscal 1999 was due to payments made for state
franchise taxes in the amount of $675,000.

<PAGE>
INCOME TAXES

For the fiscal years ended May 31, 1999 and 1998, a provision for deferred
income tax expense on income from continuing operations, was recorded in the
amounts of $5,414,000 and $371,000, respectively. The value of the deferred tax
assets is dependent on the Company generating future operating earnings, the
income taxes on which would be offsettable by the Company's NOL carryforwards.
The Company provided a full valuation allowance for these deferred tax assets as
of May 31, 1999, since, in management's opinion, the future realizability of the
deferred tax assets is uncertain in light of its actual operating results since
reorganization. This action does not impair the availability of the NOL
carryforwards to offset any future taxable earnings. The pre-reorganization NOL
carryforwards expire during the years 2004 to 2010. Utilization of the
pre-reorganization NOL carryforwards is limited to approximately $2 million per
year. The Company periodically reviews the adequacy of the valuation allowance
for NOL carryforwards and will recognize benefits only if a reassessment
indicates that it is more likely than not that the benefits will be realized.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On July 14, 2000, the Company announced that it has placed its commercial
aircraft engine portfolio up for competitive bid, that upon completion of the
sale it will be exiting the aviation business, and that it would account for and
report the Air Group Business as a discontinued operation. The Company recorded
a provision of $4,071,000 in the quarter ended May 31, 2000, relative to the
disposal of CIS Air assets, including $2,679,000 representing estimated losses
on sale of equipment and other revenues and charges related to the
discontinuance of the business unit.

EQUIPMENT LEASING BUSINESS

In August 1999, the Company announced that its subsidiary had sold a
substantial portion of its remaining lease portfolio and would no longer enter
into new equipment leases. The Company has outsourced the administration of its
remaining lease portfolio, the termination dates of which exceed one year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

FINANCING ACTIVITIES AND OTHER MATTERS

Proceeds from lease, bank and institution financings for the fiscal years
ended May 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, were $205,000, $0 and $1,445,000,
respectively, while payments on lease, bank and institution financings for the
fiscal years ended May 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, were $249,000, $2,387,000 and
$4,484,000 respectively. In August 1999 a substantial portion of the general
equipment lease portfolio was sold resulting in paying down a majority of the
debt balance.

On May 27, 1997, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had
authorized the expenditure of up to $500,000 for the repurchase of its common
stock. The Company commenced a voluntary odd lot repurchase program through
June 30, 1997, which was extended through July 31, 1997. Shareholders owning
less than 100 shares of the Company's common stock were offered the opportunity
to sell all their shares at the closing price of the common stock on the Nasdaq
Small-Cap Market on May 23, 1997, which was $2.25 per share. Approximately
20,000 shares were repurchased by the Company at an aggregate cost of
approximately $45,000. Subsequent to the odd lot repurchase program, the Company
repurchased from time to time additional shares of its common stock up to the
balance of $500,000 remaining after the odd lot program. In February 1999, the
Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized the expenditure of
an additional $500,000 for the repurchase of its common stock. The Company will
hold all repurchased shares of common stock in its treasury. Subject to approval
from the Board of Directors, the Company may repurchase the additional shares at
prevailing prices in the open market or in negotiated or other transactions. As
of May 31, 2000, approximately 525,000 shares had been repurchased by the
Company in this manner at an aggregate cost of approximately $866,000.

T1Xpert.com had expended $1,611,000 as of May 31, 2000. The Company believes
it has sufficient cash on hand to meet current operating needs until the
projected development of an alpha product.

may decide to fund such expenditures from its own resources, as then available.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to meet its financial
needs after it passes the alpha stage of development.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT, ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE

On June 15, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities (FAS 133). FAS 133 is effective for all
fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000 (June 1, 2001
for the Company). FAS 133 requires that all derivative instruments be recorded
on the balance sheet at their fair market value. Changes in the value of
derivatives are recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive
income, depending on whether a derivative is designated as part of a hedge
transaction and, if it is, the type of hedge transaction. The Company does not
presently have derivative instruments and does not believe that the adoption of
FAS 133 will have a significant impact on its earnings or statement of financial
position.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

MARKET RISK DISCLOSURES

The Company is exposed to risks associated with interest rate changes. The
Company does not foresee any significant changes in its exposure to fluctuations
in interest rates in the near future. At May 31, 2000, the Company's total
outstanding debt consisted of a secured, revolving loan facility in the amount
of $6,919,000. The facility has a floating interest rate of prime plus 1/4% and
expires in December 2000. If interest rates were to rise dramatically, the cost
of servicing this loan would also increase. Based on weighted average borrowings
outstanding under the credit facility during fiscal year 2000, a 1/8 percentage
point change in the weighted average interest rate would have caused the
interest expense to increase or decrease by approximately $9,000.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of Continental Information Systems Corporation:

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the
accompanying index on page 15 present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Continental Information Systems Corporation and its
subsidiaries (the "Company") at May 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
May 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement
schedule listed in the accompanying index presents fairly, in all material
respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the
related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and
financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management;
our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits of
these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America, which 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, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

As described in Note 2, the Company believes it has sufficient funds to meet
current operating needs until the projected development of an alpha product and
through the end of fiscal 2001. The Company anticipates that in developing past
the alpha stage it will need substantial additional funds and will be seeking
additional investments from third parties. The Company may co-invest with such
investors, or, failing to find such investors, the Company may decide to fund
such expenditures from its own resources, as then available. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to meet its financial needs after it
passes the alpha stage of development.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Continental Information Systems Corporation and its Subsidiaries (the
"Company") was a specialized financial services company that engaged in the
leasing, sales and management of commercial aircraft and engines and other
financing activities, including commercial real estate financing.

The Company has changed its focus and is in the early stages of developing
software for the securities industry to deal with the processing of securities
transactions in a real time environment. Management intends that the system will
make use of the state of the art software using proprietary work process control
methods.

CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Continental Information Systems Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
All intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents include checking and money market accounts and
short term commercial paper with financial institutions having original
maturities of 90 days or less.

RESTRICTED CASH

Restricted cash comprises funds on deposit for two letters of credit
hypothecated to one US bank and one Israeli bank which guarantee a loan made to
an unrelated high technology company. In connection with this loan guarantee,
the Company received warrants to purchase the stock in the high technology
company. The amount of stock to be purchased, their valuation and pricing will
be determined upon the successful completion of the next round of financing to
be conducted by the technology company. The Company has valued these warrants at
zero as there are no reasonable means to estimate value.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

T1Xpert.com is in the development stage and has no customers. Initially the
Company anticipates that it may have only a few customers in the broker-dealer
industry.

Of the Company's notes receivable balance $2,083,000 is owed by one customer
in the aviation business. Thus, the Company is directly affected by the well
being of this company and the airline industry in general. The credit risk
associated with this customer is mitigated by the note being collateralized;
however, a substantial portion of such collateral is outside the United States,
thereby creating potential difficulties of recovery of collateral in case of
default. The note bears interest at 6% and will mature in 2005.

INVESTMENT IN MORTGAGE PARTICIPATION NOTES

Investment in mortgage participation notes represents investments in
high-yield, short-term commercial real estate transactions and are carried at
the lower of cost or market. Interest income on the notes is recorded monthly
using the weighted average estimated yields on these investments.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
LEASE ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13 requires that a lessor
account for each lease by the direct financing method, sales-type method or
operating method. Presently, the Company has primarily direct financing and
operating leases; the dollar value and number of sales-type leases are
considered immaterial. Net investment in direct financing leases consists of the
future minimum lease payments plus unguaranteed residual less unearned income
net of unamortized initial direct costs. At the end of the lease term, the
recorded residual value of equipment under direct financing leases is
reclassified to rental equipment and is depreciated over its estimated remaining
useful life, if the related asset is released.

Unearned income is amortizated to lease income by the interest method using
a constant periodic rate over the lease term.

Rental equipment consists of equipment under operating leases. Rental
equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis to their estimated residual
values over the remaining useful lives of such equipment. Operating lease
revenues consist of the contractual lease payments which are recognized on a
straight-line basis over the lease term. Costs associated with operating leases
principally consist of depreciation of the equipment.

The Company makes adjustments to the carrying value of leased assets, if
necessary, when market conditions have resulted in values that are below net
book value. At the time assets are disposed of, cost and accumulated
depreciation as to each investment are removed from the accounts and the
difference, net of proceeds, is recognized as a gain or loss.

DEFERRED COMMISSIONS AND INITIAL DIRECT COSTS

Commissions and other initial direct costs related to lease transactions are
capitalized as a component of the corresponding investment in direct financing
leases or rental equipment and amortized over the estimated average lease term
as an adjustment of yield. Costs relating to direct financing leases are
amortized using the interest method and costs relating to operating lease
equipment are amortized using the straight-line method. In accounting for the
air subsidiary as a discontinued operation all deferred commissions and indirect
costs were accelerated and recorded as a current expense.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are being depreciated
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of such assets.
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over three to seven years. Computer
equipment and software is depreciated over three to five years and furniture,
fixtures and office equipment over seven years and aircraft engines over seven
years from the date of purchase.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method
required by Financial Accounting Standard No. 109 (SFAS 109), ACCOUNTING FOR
INCOME TAXES. SFAS 109 requires the recording of deferred tax assets and
liabilities for the future tax effects of temporary differences between the
bases of all assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and tax
purposes. Valuation

allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the
amount expected to be realized. The Company periodically reviews the adequacy of
the valuation allowance and will recognize benefits only if reassessment
indicates that it is more likely than not that the benefits will be realized. A
valuation allowance for the full amount of deferred tax assets was provided for
in income tax expense in 1999.

NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

EARNINGS PER SHARE, is calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standard No. 128 (SFAS 128), EARNINGS PER SHARE, which specifies standards for
computing and disclosing net income (loss) per share. Basic and diluted net
income (loss) per share for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998,
was computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the periods. As of May 31, 2000, the Company had issued and
outstanding options to purchase 315,283 shares of common stock (see Note 10).
The effect of these options is antidilutive and was not included in the
computation of diluted net income (loss) per share.

ESTIMATES

The preparation of 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The most
significant estimates relate to the carrying value of discontinued operations
and notes receivable.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain prior period balances in the financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

2. T1XPERT.COM

The Company shifted its focus to development and commercializing of an
Internet-enabled electronic securities processing software platform which would
use proprietary technology and which would be adapted to changes in the
securities industry including operational changes related to increased volume,
the ability to effect trades through the Internet, Electronic Crossing Networks,
decimalization, expanded trading hours, various rule changes and the shift from
settling trades in three days to settling trades in one day. This latter shift
is commonly referred to as "T+1". The newly created subsidiary that was formed
to engage in this line of business, CIS Portal Corporation, changed its name to
T1Xpert.com Corp. ("T1Xpert.com") to more properly reflect its business focus.

As part of the marketing plans of T1Xpert.com the Company may seek to engage
in strategic market relationships with vendors, brokers, dealers or other market
participants. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able
to establish the necessary strategic market relationships, or, if such
relationships are established, that they will be successful.

2. T1XPERT.COM (CONTINUED)
As the Company is in the initial stages of developing its T1Xpert.com
business, the product has not yet been released or tested for functionality.
There is currently no demonstrated market for this product and the Company does
not have any contracted clients. The financial statements contained herein do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

T1Xpert.com has expended $1,611,000 as of May 31, 2000. The Company believes
it has sufficient funds to meet current operating needs until the projected
development of an alpha product and to the end of fiscal 2001.

The Company anticipates that in developing past the alpha stage it will need
substantial additional funds. In connection therewith, the Company will be
seeking investments from strategic client/investors and/or venture capital
investors. The form of investment will depend upon the terms and conditions to
be negotiated. The Company may co-invest with such investors, or, failing to
find such investors, the Company may decide to fund such expenditures from its
own resources, as then available. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to meet its financial needs after it passes the alpha stage of
development.

3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On July 14, 2000, the Company announced that it was offering for sale its
commercial aircraft engine portfolio by competitive bid, that upon completion of
the sale it will be exiting the aviation business, and that it would account for
and report the Air Group Business as a discontinued operation.

The Company has a revolving loan agreement (the "CIS Air Loan facility")
with an institution to provide lease and inventory financing for aircraft
engines for CIS Air, in the amount of $10,000,000. The facility has a three-year
term and permits borrowings equal to a percentage of the appraised value of the
aircraft engines financed. Substantially all of the assets of CIS Air are
pledged as collateral for the Loan. At May 31, 2000, $6,862,000 of this facility
was being utilized. The CIS Air Loan facility bears interest at prime plus 1/4%
(9.75%, 8.0% and 8.75% at May 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998 respectively) and expires
in December 2000. The Company paid interest related to this facility of
$619,000, $513,000 and $438,000 in fiscal 2000, 1999, 1998, respectively.
Proceeds of sale are used to permanently pay down the loan. The Company's lender
had been notified, and the CIS Air Loan facility will not be renewed. Upon pay
down of the CIS Air Loan facility, and in connection with CIS Air's exiting from
the aviation business, proceeds from the disposition of Air assets will be
available for general corporate purposes. As of August 23, 2000, $1,424,165 of
the facility was unpaid.

The Consolidated Balance Sheet and Statements of Operations for all periods
presented have been reclassified to report the results of discontinued
operations separately from those of continuing operations.

9. DISCOUNTED LEASE RENTAL BORROWINGS

The Company financed certain leases by assigning the rentals to various
lending institutions at fixed rates on a recourse and non-recourse basis.
Discounted lease rental borrowings represent the present value of the lease
payments discounted at the rate charged by the lending institution and are
reduced on a monthly basis as the corresponding lease rental stream is collected
(generally by the lending institutions). Amounts due under recourse borrowings
are obligations of the Company, and are also collateralized by the leased
equipment and assignments of lease receivables. Amounts due under non-recourse
borrowings are collateralized by the leased equipment and assignments of lease
receivables with no recourse to the general assets of the Company.

10. COMMON STOCK

Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters
submitted to a vote of shareholders. The Company does not anticipate the payment
of dividends on the common stock for the foreseeable future.

Pursuant to an odd lot repurchase program established by the Company in
prior years, the Company repurchased from time to time additional shares of its
common stock up to a balance of $500,000 remaining after the odd lot program. In
February 1999, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized
the expenditure of an additional $500,000 for the repurchase of its common
stock. As of May 31, 2000, approximately 525,424 shares had been repurchased by
the Company in this manner at an aggregate cost of approximately $866,000.
Subject to approval from the Board of Directors, the Company may repurchase the
additional shares at prevailing prices in the open market or in negotiated or
other transactions. The Company will hold all repurchased shares of common stock
in its treasury.

11. STOCK OPTION PLAN

In 1995, the Board of Directors adopted and the stockholders approved the
Continental Information Systems Corporation 1995 Stock Compensation Plan (the
"1995 Plan"). The 1995 Plan provides for the issuance of options covering up to
1,000,000 shares of common stock and stock grants of up to 500,000 shares of
common stock to non-employee directors of the Company and, at the discretion of
the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors, employees of and
independent contractors and consultants to the Company. Options granted to
non-employee directors of the Company in any year become exercisable at the next
annual stockholders' meeting while those granted to employees of and independent
contractors and consultants to the Company are subject to vesting periods
determined by the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors. Options
granted to employees in fiscal 1999 become exercisable in installments of 33 1/3
percent at the grant date and at each subsequent fiscal year end except for
options granted to two executive officers which become fully exercisable one
year from the grant date. The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations in accounting for
the 1995 Plan. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been charged against income
for the stock option plan. Had compensation cost for the 1995 Plan been
determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the Plan,
consistent with the requirements of FASB

11. STOCK OPTION PLAN (CONTINUED)
In 2000, the Board of Directors of T1Xpert.com adopted the T1Xpert.com Corp.
Stock Compensation Plan ("the T1X 2000 Plan"). The T1X 2000 Plan provides for
the issuance of stock options covering up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock to
employees of T1Xpert.com. Options granted typically do not become exercisable
until at least one year from the date of commencement of employment and vest
ratably over periods of time as provided at the discretion of the Board of
T1Xpert.com. Option grants expire ten years from date of grant, or upon
termination of the employee's employment with the T1Xpert.com.

12. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

The income tax effect of the significant temporary differences and
carryforwards which give rise to deferred tax assets and (liabilities) are as
follows as of May 31 (in thousands):

<TABLE>

ASSETS
Net operating losses.................................... $17,525 $16,429

Discontinued operations................................. 1,178 29

Leased assets........................................... 2,898 1,135
Valuation allowance..................................... (22,116) (18,791)
------- -------
$ 0 $ 0
======= =======
</TABLE>

A full valuation allowance was provided for such deferred tax assets since,
in management's opinion, the realizability of such assets was uncertain in light
of the Company's actual operating results since reorganization. The Company
periodically reviews the adequacy of the valuation allowance and will recognize
benefits only if a reassessment indicates that it is more likely than not that
the benefits will be realized. As of May 31, 2000, the Company had a net
operating loss carry-forwards for future tax, taxable income in the amount of
approximately $46 million which will expire from 2005 through 2020.

13. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Company maintains a defined contribution 401(k) plan covering
substantially all of its employees under which it is obligated to make matching
contributions at the rate of 50% of the first 6% of participant earnings
contributed to the plan and which provides for an annual discretionary
contribution based on participants' eligible compensation. Employees generally
became eligible to participate in the plan after the completion of one full year
of employment. Matching and discretionary contributions made by the Company vest
over a five-year period. Matching company contributions to the plan for the
fiscal years ended May 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, were $26,000, $21,000 and
$38,000, respectively. The Company made no discretionary contribution.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

RENTAL COMMITMENTS

The Company has various operating lease agreements for offices and office
equipment. These leases generally have provisions for renewal at varying terms.
The Company recorded rental expense of $243,000, $279,000 and $243,000 in the
fiscal years ended May 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

CONTINGENCIES

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

CIS Air Corporation ("CIS Air") has three actions pending against Eastwind
Airlines, a lessee of aircraft and engines.

1. On Sept 24, 1999 CIS Air, along with two other creditors, filed a
petition for involuntary bankruptcy against Eastwind in the Bankruptcy Court in
Delaware asserting a claim of $4,623,383 consisting primarily of non payment of
aircraft lease payments and reserves, violations of the return provisions, non
payment for engine leases and non return of a damaged engine. Subsequently three
other creditors executed Joinders to the Petition. On March 31, 2000 the Court
ruled that the numerosity requirements of the Bankruptcy Code supporting the
filing of the Creditor's petition were met. Trial as to whether Eastwind was
paying their debts as they become due was held and proposed findings of fact and
conclusions of law are due to be filed with the Court by the end of September
2000.

2. CIS Air previously sued Eastwind in State Court, New York County. That
action is stayed pending resolution of the bankruptcy action.

3. CIS Air commenced an action in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York against UM Holdings, the sole shareholder of
Eastwind, seeking damages in the amount of $4,623,383 based on the assumption of
liability by UM of Eastwind's obligations. The matter is in the early stages of
litigation. The Company is currently in settlement negotiations concerning all
of the actions against Eastwind and UM Holdings.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
action in connection with the sale of an engine to Dallas in August 1997. Dallas
is seeking damages for the purchase price of the engine in the amount of
$1,150,000. CIS Air has denied any liability to Dallas on any of the causes of
action, and has asserted its defenses. The litigation is in its initial stages.

15. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
of each class of financial instruments:

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS, NOTES RECEIVABLE AND INVESTMENT IN MORTGAGE
PARTICIPATION NOTES--The carrying value approximates fair value because of the
short maturity of those instruments.

DISCOUNTED LEASE RENTAL BORROWINGS AND NOTE PAYABLE TO INSTITUTION--The fair
value of discounted lease rental borrowings and note payable to institution are
based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank loans
with similar terms and average maturities. At May 31, 2000 and 1999, the fair
value of such borrowings approximate their carrying values.

16. SEGMENT FINANCIAL DATA

The Company adopted SFAS No. 131, DISCLOSURE ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE
AND RELATED INFORMATION, as required, in fiscal 2000. The Company's operating
subsidiaries are classified into two principal operating segments on the basis
of the Company's strategic direction and assessment procedures within the
operating subsidiaries, which require different investment and marketing
strategies.

EQUIPMENT LEASING BUSINESS: The Company's Equipment Leasing Business, which
was conducted through its operating subsidiary CIS Corporation, a New York
Corporation ("CIS"), leased a wide range of equipment, including computers,
printers and telecommunications equipment. The Company participated in the
leasing market principally by originating new leases and financing other
equipment brokers. In August 1999, the Company announced CIS would no longer
enter into new equipment leases.

SECURITIES PROCESSING SOFTWARE BUSINESS: The product is being designed as an
electronic securities processing software platform which would use proprietary
technology and which would be adapted to changes in the financial market place.
