PART I
ITEM 6 . DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
E-Pawn.com, Inc. (the "Company") was organized under the laws of the
State of Nevada on November 4, 1985, under the name Java, Inc. The Company was
formed for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing and all other
lawful businesses. The Company's initial authorized capital consisted of
50,000,000 shares, $.001 par value, common capital stock.
In 1986, the Company sold 1,320,350 shares of its common stock to the
public at a price of $0.10 per share, pursuant to an S-18 Registration Statement
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about January 10, 1986
and completed the offering on August 20, 1986.
The company changed its name to Wasatch International Corporation on
September 27, 1995. The company's principal business activity was to seek
potential business ventures which may warrant involvement or purchase.
On January 2000, the majority shareholder of the Company consented to
amend the article of incorporation to change the name of the Company to
E-Pawn.com, Inc., following its acquisition of the Florida corporation, E-Pawn,
Inc. The consent also changed the capitalization by increasing the number of
shares of common stock, par value $.001, to 500,000,000 and by providing for a
new Class A, Preferred Stock, par value $.10, with 100,000,000 authorized
shares. The Class A, Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference and each
shares has voting rights equal to 100 shares of common stock. The Preferred
Stock has no other economic rights to distributions or dividends.
GRAFFITI REMOVAL SYSTEMS
On November 12, 1995 the Company acquired all of the issued and
outstanding stock of Graffiti Removals Systems Inc. The only business operations
conducted by the Company from its inception to the end of the period covered by
the previous Annual Report were those of Graffiti Removal Systems Inc., which
was in the business of producing a specialized paint removal agent. Those
operations had proved to have only limited success, and on July 17, 1996 the
Company approved of the sale of Graffiti to Steven Moulton, the Company's former
President and Director in exchange for the assumption of all the liabilities of
Graffiti. The Company had no business operations after July 17, 1996, when
Steven Moulton sold 2,400,000 shares of his stock to LaSalle Group, Ltd. which
took over control of the Company.
CARIBBEAN HOLDINGS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
On September 25, 1996, the Company acquired all the issued and
outstanding stock of Caribbean Holdings International Corporation ("Caribbean"),
a Florida corporation, in exchange for 25,000,000 shares of the Company's common
stock. Caribbean is a partner in a joint venture which intends to secure and
develop certain land in the Bahamas which is part of the Effie Knowles Estate.
1
<PAGE>
Caribbean had entered into the joint venture agreement in July 1996 with two
individuals who are the heirs to the estate, which is in the process of being
probated and that owned approximately 15,000 acres of land in the Bahamas. The
agreement provides for net profits to be shared 50% by Caribbean and 50% by the
two individuals. The agreement also stipulates that advance payments are to be
made to the two individuals toward their share of future net profits derived
from the real estate associated with the joint venture. Pursuant to the
agreement, the two individuals were paid $100,000 initially and $5,000 each
month, until the estate has been completely probated. Through May 31,1997, a
total of $154,000 of advances toward joint venture net profit have been paid to
the two individuals. On May 31, 1998, a total of $404,000 of advances toward
joint venture net profit have been paid to the two individuals. Through May 31,
1999, an additional $60,000 of advances toward joint venture net profit have
been paid to the two individuals. Through August 1999 an additional amount of
$15,000 was advanced pursuant to the joint venture agreement. In September 1999,
the Company became aware that the joint venture partners had entered into
agreements with third parties and had accepted advances from such parties in
violation of the joint venture agreement. The Company has therefore suspended
payment of advances under the agreement, and the joint venture partners have
claimed a default by Caribbean under the agreement.
On January 20, 2000, the Company approved the distribution to all of
the Company's shareholders of record on January 28, 2000 (extended to February
28, 2000 pursuant to NASD rules) of a stock dividend of one share of Caribbean,
a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, for each share of the Company held as
of the record date. Caribbean assumed liabilities in the sum of approximately
$160,000 plus interest due to DBLA Associates. The Company has been released of
its obligations and guarantees to DBLA Associates, and the Company has no
further liability to DBLA Associates in connection with this debt. Caribbean has
claims through its joint venture with Merrill and Raymond MacDonald to an
interest in approximately 15,000 acres of land in the Bahamas. The rights of
Caribbean were retained by it in full when the stock of this company was
distributed to the shareholders of the Company pursuant to the stock dividend.
PALM BEACH CRUISE LINES
In 1996, the Company submitted a bid proposal to the U.S. Bankruptcy
Court in Florida in an effort to purchase all the assets of Palm Beach Cruise
Lines, Inc. ("Palm Beach"). As part of that acquisition proposal, the Company
advanced $312,000 to Palm Beach as Debtor-in-Possession financing. The Company
was unsuccessful in its bid proposal. As part of the plan of reorganization of
the ultimate buyer of Palm Beach, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Florida ordered
that the Company be repaid the $312,000 no later than scheduled closing of the
plan of reorganization, January 18, 1997. The Company sold its interest in the
$312,000 receivable for $200,000 and the forgiveness of $100,000 owed to an
affiliate of the Company's principal shareholder. The $100,000 was offset
against contributions made to the Company. The Company collected the $200,000.
The $12,000 difference has been treated as a loss of disposition of an asset on
the current financial statement.

KIWI INTERNATIONAL AIRLINES
In October 1996, the Company agreed to advance funds in the form of
Debtor In Possession ("DIP") financing to Kiwi International Airlines of Newark,
N.J. ("Kiwi"), an air carrier that had filed for reorganization pursuant to
Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Company agreed to provide a total of
$1,000,000 in DIP financing to Kiwi. In November of 1996, the Company along with
Dr. Charles Edwards ( "Edwards") agreed to form a Partnership Edwards-Wasatch
Enterprises ( "EWE") to which the Company assigned its right to provide Kiwi the
DIP financing. Pursuant to the agreement (the "EWE Agreement"), Edwards agreed
to loan up to $1,000,000 as required to fund Kiwi operations, and the Company
agreed to provide up to an additional $1,000,000. (As of the date of the EWE
Agreement, the Company had previously provided Kiwi with $100,000 of the DIP
financing.) The Company's assignment of its right to provide the DIP financing
to Kiwi was approved by the Bankruptcy Court and on that date the Company was in
default of its financing obligations to Kiwi, which default the Court waived in
the order. Two orders were entered by the Bankruptcy Court at subsequent
hearings which resulted in an increase in the DIP financing to a total of
$9,500,000 consisting of $6,000,000 in cash and $3,500,000 million in the form
of letters of credit.
The EWE Agreement has been amended on two occasions, from November 1996
the partnership was owned 41% by the Company, and the balance by Edwards. The
Company had an option to acquire all of interest of EWE by converting the
interest into shares of the stock of the Company which shares were to be
convertible into shares of Kiwi. The conversion was to be based on the value of
Wasatch, which value was to be determined upon reliance on an appraisal of its
interest through Caribbean to land in the Bahamas. During this period, Edwards
had advanced approximately $4,280,000 in cash and $3,159,000 in letters of
credit to EWE, while the Company had advanced approximately $1,450,000 in cash.
All of the funds contributed to EWE were used to finance Kiwi.
The former President of the Company, Joseph Logan Jr., executed an
agreement with EWE and Edwards placing the Company's claim to $1,450,000 in a
subordinated position to that of EWE and as a junior claim behind approximately
$16,000,000 of additional financing provided by Edwards and or EWE, thus
significantly impairing the company's ability to recover the $1,450,000. Upon
the resignation of Joseph Logan, as President and Director, the Company entered
into an agreement with Aviation Holdings, Inc. to exchange the Company's claim
in the sum of approximately $1,450,000 plus an amount of up to $250,000 to which
the Company would be entitled to as a break-up fee in the event that Kiwi was
not acquired by the Company for 333,000 shares of common stock of Aviation
Holdings, Inc., a public Company traded over the counter. To date, the shares of
Aviation Holdings, Inc have not been delivered to the Company despite demand.
Kiwi has received a order for relief under Chapter 7 of Bankruptcy Code, and the
Company is reviewing with its legal counsel its options for recovery of its
damages.

ITEM 9. REMUNERATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
During the period of this Annual Report, the Company provided no
compensation to directors for serving that position.
On October 1, 1996, the Company entered into an employment agreement with
its President, Joseph Logan, for a period of five years. The agreement provides
for annual compensation of $250,000 with annual increases of $10,000. On his
resignation in 1997, Mr. Logan and the Company settled all claims for
compensation by agreeing to issue 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock
in lieu of compensation. These shares were never issued because Mr. Logan made a
commitment to an third party shareholder to deliver the shares to the third
party, which Joe Logan failed to timely perform, and the Company's majority
stockholder undertook to deliver the shares directly to the third party on
Joseph Logan's behalf.
Effective on January 1, 1997, the Company entered into an employment
agreement with Mr. Eli Leibowitz to serve as Chief Financial Officer for a
period of five years. The agreement provides for annual compensation of $150,000
with annual increases of $10,000 and other benefits and bonuses.. Mr. Leibowitz
agreed to postpone payment of his salary until the Company has obtained
sufficient operational funding. Upon resignation of Mr. Joseph Logan in October
1997, Mr. Leibowitz became the President of the Company. The Company did not
provide any compensation to Mr. Leibowitz during the period of this Annual
Report. In January 2000, Mr. Leibowitz agreed to accept 1,500,000 shares of
common stock in lieu of all compensation owed to him through January 31, 2000.

fee of $2,000 per month for his services as a director and consultant. He
resigned in June 1997.

Item 11. Interest of Management and Others in Certain Transactions
Not applicable
PART II
ITEM 1. MARKET PRICE OF AND DIVIDENDS ON THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND
OTHER SHAREHOLDER MATTERS.
The Company's common stock has traded over -the -counter and quoted on
the OTC NASDAQ Electronic Bulletin Board (OTCBB) under the symbol "EPWN" since
February 29, 2000. The Company previously traded under its former symbol "WITD."
The Company traded under this symbol since 1995. The following table represents
the range of the high and low bid prices of the Company's stock as reported by
the NASDAQ Trading and Market Services for the fiscal quarter for
7
<PAGE>
the fiscal years ending May 31, 1998 and May 31, 1997. Such quotations represent
prices between dealers and may not include retail markups, markdowns, or
commissions or actual transactions.
QUARTER ENDED HIGH LOW
August 31, 1996 $ 5.00 $ 1.625
November 30, 1996 $ 6.00 $ .875
February 28, 1997 $ 4.50 $ 1.8125
May 31, 1997 $ 3.9375 $ .6875
August 31, 1997 $ 1.875 $ .25
November 30, 1997 $ .35 $ .11
February 28, 1998 $ .15 $ .08
May 31, 1998 $ .12 $ .0626
As of May 31, 1998, the Company had approximately 490 stockholders of
record of the Company's common stock although the Company believes that the
number of stockholders is significantly larger because many firms hold shares on
behalf of many beneficial owners.
DIVIDENDS
The Company has never paid cash dividends on its stock, and it
anticiaptes that it will continue to retain any future earnings to finance the
growth and expansion of its business. The Company may elect to issue stock
dividends from its subsidiaries and investments.
QUOTATIONS
The Company's common stock is currently on the OTC Bulletin Board.
Under the rules, a company must be current with its filings in order to maintain
the listing on the OTC Bulletin Board. If the Company sustains a period of
delinquency, its listing may be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board, in which
case the company will move the listing to the National Quotations Bureau's Pink
Sheets. This move, if made, may adversely affect the market in the Company's
stock.
ITEM 2. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
In addition to the possibilty of Bankruptcy Court proceedings in connection
with the investment in Kiwi International Air Lines, Inc., referred to in Part I
Item 6, "Description of Business" and Note 4 to the Financial Statements, the
Company has been the party to several lawsuits and matters which may lead to
litigation. Management believes that none of the legal proceedings in which the
Company was engaged for the period of this Annual Report and the
8
<PAGE>
subsequent period to the filing of the Report will have a material adverse
affect on the financial condition of the Company. All matters have been settled
as of the filing or the matters represent actions in which the Company will be
the plaintiff seeking relief.
In February 1997, the Company delivered 4,000,000 shares of common
stock to Dr. Charles Edwards as partial consideration for his agreement to merge
Wasatch Edwards LLC into the Company. Dr. Edwards elected not to conclude the
merger and wholly failed to perform, which caused the Company significant
damages. The Company has demanded the return of all shares, and the Company has
issued a stop transfer order to the transfer agent. The Company may commence
litigation against Dr. Edwards and others in order to cancel the shares and to
recover damages suffered by the Company. In addition, the Company issued 500,000
shares to Dr. Charles Edwards under a consulting contract by which he was to
perform certain services. No work and no service was ever performed, and the
Company may seek recovery of the shares or damages.
In June 1998, the Company settled a $500,000 judgment held by Hans
Kooring in exchange for issuing 500,000 additional shares of its common stock to
Hans Kooring and 500,000 shares to attorney Jay Salyer. The claim arose from a
dispute in connection with $500,000 Regulation S stock purchase undertaken in
December 1996 with the Company in which the company issued 500,000 shares to
Hans Kooring. At the conclusion of the transactions, Hans Kooring received a
total of 1,000,000 shares and Jay Salyer received 500,000 shares.
Massachusetts Asset Financing Corp. ("MAFC"), a Massachusetts
Corporation, obtained a default judgement against the Company in the sum of
approximately $10,000 together with $287.70 in interest and $126.00 in costs
arising from a claim for fees for due diligence work allegedly performed by MAFC
for a loan of $500,000 which MAFC represented it would provide to the Company.
The Company believes that this claim has been satisfied as the result of the
garnishment of $13,000 from the bank account of John Frohling, legal counsel to
the Company. The Company has been unable to obtain written release and
satisfaction of judgement from the judgment creditor. The Company may have to
resort to legal action to remove the judgement from the Court Record. The
Company does not consider this matter to be one that will have a material effect
on the Company.
The Company has settled a lawsuit brought by an individual in the
Orlando District Court seeking $70,000 for the purchase price and approximately
$200,000 in damages in connection with the proposed purchase of a start up
Internet advertising company made in November 1996. The Company had previously
filed an answer and defended the action; however, in the interest of resolving
all outstanding litigation and avoiding the cost of defense, the Company agreed
to settle the action in March 2000 for 100,000 shares of restricted common
stock, in exchange for a dismissal of the claim, release of all liability and
delivery to the Company of certain computer equipment that the Company will use
in its newly acquired Internet businesses
The Company has been subject of civil litigation arising from a loan
advanced to the Company in April 1997 by two individuals. This claim has been
settled in December 1997 in exchange for a cash payment of approximately $20,000
and delivery of 200,000 shares of common stock of the Company by a third party.

<PAGE>
The Company has settled a claim from an investor who purchased
restricted common stock of the Company from a third party. The settlement

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of E-Pawn.Com, Inc. and Subsidiary
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of E-Pawn.Com, Inc.
and Subsidiary (formerly Wasatch International Corporation)(A Development Stage
Company) as of May 31, 1998 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the periods ended May 31,
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 audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the combined consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of E-Pawn.Com, Inc. and
Subsidiary as of May 31, 1998 and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for the periods ended May 31, 1998 and 1997, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Notes 1 and 10 to the
financial statements, the Company incurred significant operating losses of
$406,133 and $7,424,867 in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Additionally, the
Company had a working capital deficiency of approximately $752,000 at May 31,
1998. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. Management's plans with respect to these matters
are also described in Notes 1 and 10 to the financial statements. The
accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

(FORMERLY-WASATCH INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED MAY 31, 1998 AND 1997
Note 1 - ORGANIZATION
E-Pawn.com, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of
Nevada on November 4, 1985 as Java, Inc. The Company changed its name to Wasatch
International Corporation on September 27, 1995 and on February 28, 2000 changed
its name to E-Pawn.com, Inc. The Company's principal business activity is to
seek potential business ventures and assets, which may warrant investment or
purchase. Therefore, the Company has been a business development stage company
from inception.
On November 7, 1986, the Company issued shares of its common stock to
acquire Quazon Communications, Inc. In 1989, the Company ceased operations along
with the operations of its wholly owned subsidiary. On November 12, 1995, the
Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Graffiti
Removal Systems, Inc. ("Graffiti"). Graffiti was incorporated on November 8,
1995 in the State of Utah. Graffiti's principal business is that of graffiti
removal and consulting. The Company has sold its subsidiary to its former
President in exchange for the recovery of expenses.
Effective September 25, 1996, the Company acquired all of the issued
and outstanding common stock of Caribbean Holdings International Corporation
("Caribbean") in exchange for 25,000,000 share of the Company's common stock.
Caribbean was incorporated in the State of Florida on December 27, 1995.
Caribbean was a partner in a joint venture engaged in the development and sale
of recreational property in the Bahamas. The acquisition of Caribbean has been
accounted for as a purchase, because a shareholder of Caribbean controlled the
Company after the acquisition. Accordingly, Caribbean has been treated as the
acquiring entity. There was no adjustment to the carrying value of the assets or
liabilities of the Company as a result of the acquisition.
On January 18, 2000, the majority stockholder of record consented to
amend the Articles of Incorporation to provide that the authorized share capital
shall be increased to a total of 500,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.001
par value and the creation of 100,000,000 shares of Class A Preferred Stock par
value $0.10 per share. Each share of Class A Preferred shall have 100 votes per
share.
On January 20, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved the
distribution of a stock dividend of shares of Caribbean on a share for share
basis. This action will cause the company to have no assets and limited
liabilities. On January 20, 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved the
purchase of E-Pawn, Inc., a Florida corporation. The Company has agreed to pay
two hundred million dollars, payable entirely in stock of the Company. The
Company has agreed to value the common shares at one dollar per share and to
issue one hundred million shares of Common Stock and one hundred million share
of Class A Preferred Stock. The purchase price is subject to an appraisal as to
the value of E-Pawn, Inc. that will be acceptable to the Board of Directors.

Development Stage and Continued Existence
As of February 29, 2000, the activities of the Company and its
subsidiaries have had no revenues from operations. Accordingly, the Company is
considered to be in the development stage. In addition, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will
continue as going concerns. The Company has incurred only losses from
operations, which creates reservations about the Company's ability to continue
as a going concern. The recovery of assets and continuation of future operations
are dependent upon the Company's ability to obtain additional debt or equity
financing and its ability to generate revenues sufficient to continue pursuing
its business purposes. The Company is actively pursuing equity and debt
financing and acquisitions and investments to fund future operations and
acquisitions.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Caribbean On
February 29, 2000 the Company distributed shares of Caribbean as a dividend to
its shareholders of record on February 28, 2000.
B. Earnings (Loss) Per Share - In February 1997, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128
("SFAS 128")" Earnings Per Share", which became effective for both interim and
annual financial statements for period ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS 128
requires a presentation of "Basic" and, where applicable, "Diluted" earnings per
share. Generally, Basic earnings per share is computed on only the weighted
average number of common shares actually outstanding during the period, and the
Diluted computation considers potential shares issuable upon exercise or
conversion of other outstanding instruments where dilution would result.
Furthermore, SFAS 128 requires the restatement of prior earnings per share to
conform to the new standard. The per share presentations in the accompanying
financial statements reflect the provisions of SFAS 128. Diluted earnings per
share is not being shown due to the fact that the years ended May 31, 1998 and
1997 show a net loss and the conversion of the preferred stock and common stock
outstanding during those years would be anti-dilutive.
C. Accounting 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 revenues and expenses
during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
D. Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash equivalents consist of money market accounts
and commercial paper with an initial term of fewer than three months. For the
purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid
debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturity of three
months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

(FORMERLY-WASATCH INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
YEARS ENDED MAY 31, 1998 AND 1997
E. Income Taxes - Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
109 ("SFAS 109") "Accounting for Income Taxes, the Company accounts for income
taxes under the liability method. Under the liability method, a deferred tax
asset or liability is determined based upon the tax effect of the differences
between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities as
measured by the enacted rates which will be in effect when these differences
reverse.
Through May 31, 1998, the Company and its subsidiary have sustained operating
losses totaling approximately $7,813,193 that may be offset against future
taxable income through the year 2012. No tax benefit has been reported in the
consolidated financial statements since their realization cannot be assured. A
substantial amount of the carry forwards are subject to annual limitations
pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code which become effective when an "ownership
change," such as a change of control occurs. To the extent that such net
operating losses are not utilized in a particular year, such amounts become
available in increase the following year's limitation.
F. Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is carried at cost.
Depreciation is computed using the straight -line method over the useful lives
of the various assets.
NOTE 3 - RECEIVABLE
In July 1996, the Company submitted a bid proposal to the U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in Florida in an effort to purchase all the assets of Palm
Beach Cruise Lines, Inc. ("Palm Beach"). As part of that acquisition proposal,
the Company advanced $312,000 to Palm Beach as Debtor-in-Possession financing.
The Company was unsuccessful in its bid proposal. As part of the plan of
reorganization of the ultimate buyer of Palm Beach, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in
Florida ordered that the Company be repaid the $312,000 no later than scheduled
closing of the plan of reorganization, January 18, 1997. In February 1997, the
Company sold its interest in the $312,000 receivable for $200,000 and the
forgiveness of $100,000 owed to an affiliate of the Company's principal
shareholder. The Company collected the $200,000. Accordingly, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements thus reflect collection of the receivable. The
offset against contributions of an affiliate of the Company's primary
shareholder, and the $12,000 differential has been treated as a loss on
disposition of an asset on the current financial statement.
NOTE 4 - INVESTMENT IN KIWI
The Company advanced funds in the form Debtor In Possession ("DIP")
financing to Kiwi International Airlines of Newark, N.J. ("Kiwi"), an air
carrier that had filed for reorganization pursuant to Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code. The Company, in October of 1996, agreed to provide a total of
$1,000,000 in DIP financing to Kiwi. In November of 1996, the Company along with
a Baltimore individual, (hereinafter referred to as "Edwards") agreed to form a
Partnership Edwards-Wasatch Enterprises (hereinafter "EWE") to which the Company
assigned its right to provide Kiwi the DIP financing. Pursuant to the agreement
(the "EWE Agreement"), Edwards agreed to loan up to $1,000,000 as required to
fund Kiwi operations, and the Company agreed to provide up to an additional
$1,000,000. (As of the date of the EWE Agreement, the Company had provided Kiwi
with $100,000 of the DIP financing.) The Company's assignment of its right to
provide the DIP financing to Kiwi was approved by the Bankruptcy Court and on
that date the Company was in default of its financing obligations to Kiwi, which

(FORMERLY-WASATCH INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
YEARS ENDED MAY 31, 1998 AND 1997
default the Court waived in the order. Two orders were entered by the Bankruptcy
Court at subsequent hearings which resulted in an increase in the DIP financing
to a total of $9,500,000 consisting of $6,000,000 in cash and $3,500,000 million
in the form of letters of credit.
The EWE Agreement has been amended on two occasions, from November 1996
the partnership was owned 41% by the Company, and the balance Charles Edwards.
The Company had an option to acquire all of EWE by converting the interest into
shares of the stock of the Company which shares were to be convertible into
shares of Kiwi. The conversion was to be based on the value of Wasatch, which
value was to be determined upon reliance on an appraisal of its land in the
Bahamas. During this period, Edwards had advanced approximately $4,280,000 in
cash and $3,159,000 in letters of credit to EWE, while the Company had advanced
approximately $1,450,000 in cash. All of the funds contributed to EWE were used
to finance Kiwi.
The former President of the Company, Joseph Logan Jr., executed an
agreement with EWE and Edwards placing the Company's claim to $1,450,000 in a
subordinated position to that of EWE and as a junior claim behind approximately
$16,000,000 of additional financing provided by Edwards and or EWE, thus
significantly impairing the company's ability to recover the $1,450,000. Upon
the resignation of Joseph Logan, as President and Director, the Company entered
into an agreement with Aviation Holdings, Inc. to exchange the Company's claim
in the sum of approximately $1,450,000 plus an amount of up to $250,000 to which
the Company would be entitled to as a break-up fee in the event that Kiwi was
not acquired by the Company for 333,000 shares of common stock of Aviation
Holdings, Inc., a public Company traded over the counter. To date, the shares of
Aviation Holdings, Inc have not been delivered to the Company despite demand.
Kiwi has received a order for relief under Chapter 7 of Bankruptcy Code, and the
Company is reviewing with its legal counsel its options for recovery of its
damages.
NOTE 5 - JOINT VENTURE NET PROFIT ADVANCES
On July 10, 1996, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Caribbean,
entered into a joint venture agreement with two individuals previously
unaffiliated with the Company or any of its subsidiaries to, develop, lease and
sell real estate located in the Bahamas beneficially owned by those individuals.
These individuals are the heirs to an estate, which is in the process of being
probated, that own the real estate. The agreement provides for net profits to be
shared by Caribbean and the two individuals. The agreement also stipulates that
advance payments are to be made to the two individuals toward their share of
future net profits derived from the real estate associated with the joint
venture. Pursuant to the agreement, the two individuals were paid $100,000
initially and $5,000 each month, until the estate has been completely probated.
Through May 31,1997, a total of $154,000 of advances toward joint venture net
profit have been paid to the two individuals. On May 31, 1998, a total of
$404,000 of advances toward joint venture net profit have been paid to the two
individuals. Through May 31, 1999, an additional $60,000 of advances toward
joint venture net profit have been paid to the two individuals. Through August
1999 an additional amount of $15,000 was advanced pursuant to the joint venture
agreement. In September

1999, the Company became aware that the Joint Venture Partners had entered into
agreements with third parties and had accepted advances from such parties in
violation of the agreement. The Company has therefore suspended payment of
advances under the agreement, and the Joint Venture partners have claimed a
default by Caribbean of the agreement. (See Note 10, "Subsequent Events" for
further explanation).
NOTE 6 - RELATED PARTY PAYABLES
As of February 1997, the Company agreed to the sale of the Company's
wholly owned subsidiary, Graffiti Removal, Inc. to its former President in
exchange for the assumption of liabilities. In the financials ending May 31,
1997, this transaction has been reflected in the disposition of the current and
long-term portion of notes receivable and the vehicle that was acquired by that
subsidiary. The sale will be subject to the assumption of liabilities including
the capital lease.
NOTE 7 - DUE TO AFFILIATE
Its majority stockholder, LaSalle Group, Ltd.("LaSalle"), has
financially supported the Company, and the aggregate debt of the Company to
LaSalle through May 31, 1998 is $362,851. In January 2000, the Company issued
ten million shares to compensate the stockholder for its advances to the
Company, thereby discharging all of the Company's debt and obligations to
LaSalle as of January 31, 2000.
NOTE 8 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
A. Common Stock-The Company amended its Articles of Incorporation on January

NOTE 9 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
On October 1, 1996, the Company entered into an employment agreement
with its President, Joseph Logan, for a period of five years. The agreement
provides for annual compensation of $250,000 with annual increases of $10,000.
On his resignation in 1997, Mr. Logan and the Company settled all claims for
compensation by agreeing to issue 250,000 shares of the company's common stock
in lieu of compensation. These shares were never issued because Mr. Logan made a
commitment to an third party shareholder to deliver the shares to the third
party, which Joe Logan failed to timely perform, and the Company's majority
stockholder undertook to deliver the shares directly to the third party on
Joseph

Logan's behalf. In January 2000, LaSalle waived claim to the 250,000 shares in
connection with the settlement of all claims against the Company.
Effective January 1, 1997, the Company entered into an employment
agreement with Mr. Eli Leibowitz to serve as Chief Financial Officer for a
period of five years. The agreement provides for annual compensation of $150,000
with annual increases of $10,000 and other benefits and bonuses.. Mr. Leibowitz
agreed to postpone payment of his salary until the Company has obtained
sufficient operational funding. Upon resignation of Mr. Joseph Logan in October
1997, Mr. Leibowitz became the President of the Company. During January 2000,
Mr. Leibowitz agreed to accept 1,500,000 shares of common stock in lieu of all
compensation owed to him through January 31, 2000.
In October 1996, in connection with the Wasatch International
Corporation Stock Plan and the filing of the related registration statement, the
Company entered into various consulting agreements with officers, directors and
consultants wherein those individuals are to provide services to the Company for
a period of one year with the shares of common stock issued as sole
compensation.
As discussed in Notes 1 and 9, the Company issued 25,000,000 share of
common stock to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common stock of
Caribbean. On February 29, 2000, the Company distributed to shareholders of
record all of the shares of Caribbean held by the Company in the form of a stock
dividend of one share of Caribbean for each share of the Company held on the
record date. As of February 29, 2000, the Company no longer has any investment
or interest in Caribbean.
Massachusetts Asset Financing Corp. ("MAFC"), a Massachusetts
Corporation, obtained a default judgement against the Company in the sum of
approximately $10,000 together with $287.70 in interest and $126.00 in costs
arising from a claim for fees for due diligence work allegedly performed by MAFC
for a loan of $500,000 which MAFC represented it would provide to the Company.
The Company believes that this claim has been satisfied as the result of the
garnishment of $13,000 from the bank account of John Frohling, legal counsel to
the Company. The Company has been unable to obtain written release and
satisfaction of judgement from the judgment creditor. The Company may have to
resort to legal action to remove the judgement from the Court Record. The
Company does not consider this matter to be one that will have a material effect
on the Company.
In February 1997, the Company delivered 4,000,000 shares of common
stock to Dr. Charles Edwards as partial consideration for his agreement to merge
Wasatch Edwards LLC into the Company. Dr. Edwards elected not to conclude the
merger and wholly failed to perform, which caused the Company significant
damages. The Company has demanded the return of all shares, and the Company has
issued a stop transfer order to the transfer agent. The Company may commence
litigation against Dr. Edwards and others in order to cancel the shares and to
recover damages suffered by the Company. In addition, the Company issued 500,000
shares to Dr. Charles Edwards under a consulting contract under which he was to
perform certain services. No work was ever performed, and the Company may seek
recovery of the shares or damages.
The Company has been subject of civil litigation arising from a loan
advanced to the Company in April 1997 by two individuals. This claim has been
settled in February 2000 in exchange for a cash payment of approximately $20,000
and delivery of 200,000 shares of common stock of the Company by a third party.

take place because the two acquiring companies, Swiss Arctic Traders, Ltd. and
Fortuna Holdings Limited., will each acquire, respectively, fifty million
(50,000,000) shares of restricted series A preferred stock which grants the
holders the power to elect a majority of the directors to the board. The one
hundred million shares of series A preferred issued under the Acquisition
Agreement represents all of the authorized series A preferred stock. The Company
will also issue fifty million (50,000,000) shares of the Company's restricted
common stock to each of the companies that is transferring together all of the
E-Pawn, Inc. stock, and the aggregate of the shares issued in connection with
the acquisition will represent over two-thirds of the issued and outstanding

On January 30, 2000, the majority stockholder by written action taken,
also consented to an amendment to the articles of incorporation to reverse split
the common stock of the company on a one for 200 share basis effective January
30, 2000. Subject to the ten-day notice Rule of NASDAQ the effected date of the
stock split may be adjusted to be a date as set by the NASDAQ Bulletin Board.
This date was extended to February 28, 2000. On February 27, 2000, the Company
announced that its Board had rescinded a previously announced 200 for 1 reverse
stock split because this change in the capital structure would not be conducive
to an orderly market in view of the market changes which arose after the
announcement of the acquisition of E-Pawn, Inc., an Internet portal involving
e-commerce and online auction sites. The consent further provided for an
amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to change the capital structure of
the Company to provide that "the Corporation shall have the authority to issue
500,000,000 shares of common stock $0.001 par value and 100,000,000 shares of

call or assessment."
