NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION, REGULATION AND CERTAIN 
SIGNIFICANT RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company's financial statements have been presented on the 
basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the 
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in 
the normal course of business.

The consolidated balance sheet for the period ended June 30, 
1998 and the related consolidated statement of operations and 
statement of cash flows are unaudited and reflect all normal 
and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of 
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results 
for the interim period.  The results of operations for the six  
month period ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily 
indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included 
in the financial statements prepared in accordance with 
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed 
or omitted.  It is suggested that the accompanying 
consolidated  financial statements be read in conjunction with 
the Summary of Accounting Policies and Notes to the 
Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's 
annual report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 
1997.

In 1997, the Company's business activities, operations and net 
income or loss were derived solely from its two divisions and 
four subsidiaries.  The Gaming and Licensing Division includes 
Sports International, Ltd. (Grenada) ("Sports"), Global Gaming 
Corp. (Grenada) ("Global"), and Global Casinos, Ltd.  
(Grenada) ("Casinos"). The Advertising/Software Division 
includes Intersphere Communications, Ltd. (Grenada)
("Intersphere").

In September 1997, the Company adopted a plan to dispose of 
two of its subsidiaries, Sports and Casinos. Effective March 
18, 1998, the Company sold Sports and Casinos for debt 
forgiveness of $1,656,344 and a $5,000,000 note receivable. 
The interest rate on the note is the prime rate.  The first 
eighteen months of the note only require monthly payments of 
interest on the unpaid principal portion.  The second eighteen 
months require payment of interest plus principal of $27,725 
per month.  A balloon payment of $4,490,950 is payable on the

thirty-seventh month.  Interest payments and accruals have 
been suspended through July 31, 1998 pending the reopening of 
Sports and Casinos by the new owners and management team.  The 
stock of Sports and Casinos has been pledged by the buyer as 
collateral.  The sale resulted in a pre-tax gain of 
approximately $6,556,344 in 1998 after considering costs 
incurred in connection with the sale and operating results 
through the date of disposition.  As collection of the 
$5,000,000 note is uncertain, the Company will defer the gain 
on the note and recognize revenue as principal is collected.

Net current assets from discontinued operations were primarily 
cash and customer receivables.  Net noncurrent assets from 
discontinued operations were primarily fixed assets.  Net 
current liabilities were customers' credit balances, security 
deposits and accounts payable and accrued expenses.

The Company's business is conducted through its wholly owned 
subsidiaries which are legally organized in Grenada and
licensed by the Grenadan governments to conduct its business.  
The subsidiaries' business activities in its Gaming and 
Licensing Division emanating from outside Grenada (customers' 
wagers) may become materially affected by regulations, laws or 
statues that may be promulgated by the various foreign, 
federal, state and/or local governments or their respective 
agencies in the future or the enforcement of such laws or 
regulations.  Presently, the Company's wagering operations are 
under investigation by the federal government.  The 
investigation is apparently based on the assumption that there 
may be a violation of federal laws if an illegal gambling 
business was being conducted from the Company's corporate 
offices in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania. Based on the advice of 
counsel with significant criminal law, trial and appellate 
experience and comprehensive understanding of the 
jurisdictional scope of gaming laws, both domestic and 
international, management does not believe that the gaming 
operations of its subsidiaries violate either the laws of the 
United States or the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, since no 
gaming or gambling operations are conducted in the United 
States.  Management's belief is based principally on its 
understanding, as interpreted by its counsel, that the 
operations of the Gaming and Licensing Division are legally 
authorized in Grenada and, as such, are beyond the scope and 
outside the jurisdiction of the United States regulatory 
powers and laws relating to gaming activities.  In May of 
1997, the Company filed an amended motion to quash the 
subpoenas issued from the United States District Court on the 

<PAGE>

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


grounds that the laws of Grenada pertaining to secrecy and 
confidentiality could be violated by individual compliance. 
The Court denied the motion, noting that the subpoenas were 
directed to the Company and not to individuals.  On July 30, 
1997, the Company made a good faith effort to comply with the 
subpoenas and delivered relevant documents.  Individuals from 
the Company under subpoena have been advised that their 
scheduled appearances have been continued indefinitely.  The 
Company intends to cooperate in all aspects of the 
investigation based upon the belief that it has nothing to 
hide and has done nothing wrong.  No assurance can be given 
that management's beliefs are correct as to the legality of 
its gambling operations or the Company's basis therefore, nor 
any assurance be made that the Company will ultimately prevail 
in any judicial proceedings.

In April of 1997, the State of Missouri sought an injunction 
in its courts seeking to restrict the Company from offering 
the Global Casino through the Internet to Missouri residents.  
While not admitting personal jurisdiction, the Company through 
counsel agreed not to offer these services to Missouri 
residents. The Company posted a notice to this effect within
its Internet web site.  Subsequently, an investigator employed 
by the State of Missouri accessed the Company's web site; 
apparently determining that the Company had breached its 
agreement with Missouri.  Accordingly, in May of 1997, the 
State of Missouri indicted the Company and its President, 
Michael F. Simone, and filed a judgement in the amount of 
$66,050 for statutory "gambling" violations in Missouri. Both 
the Company and Mr. Simone, through their counsel, have 
negotiated a settlement amounting to a $2,500 fine for Mr. 
Simone and $5,000 fine and $20,000 persecutory and 
investigative fees for the Company together with a second 
degree misdemeanor plea agreement for each party.

As a result of these investigations and costs to defend its 
position that the business of the Gaming Division pertaining 
to customer wagering over the Internet does not violate any 
federal, state or local statues, the Company completely 
divested itself from these activities with the sale of Sports 
and Casinos in March 1998.

4.	NOTE PAYABLE

On February 24,1997 and April 25, 1997, the Company issued a 
promissory note payable to a major shareholder in the amount 
of $50,000 and $36,065, respectively. The note bears interest 
at 1 1/2% above the national prime as is published from time to 
time in the Wall Street Journal. 

5. 	INCOME TAXES

The Company derives all its revenue from its wholly owned 
Grenadan subsidiaries. The government of Grenada does not 
presently impose income taxes on the Company. In 1997, a 
deferred tax asset of $100,000 was recognized for the future 
tax consequences attributable to U.S. net operating loss 
carryforwards of approximately $300,000, which expire in 2012. 
In March 1998 the Company realized gain on debt forgiveness

related to its sold subsidiaries and provided for a $100,000 
tax provision thereby utilizing its deferred tax asset.

Reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory rate to the 
Company's effective tax rate on continuing operations follows:


                                               1997   1998



U.S. federal statutory tax rate               34.0%   34.0%
Non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards    (27.8)  (21.0)   
Net operating loss carryforwards with no
current tax benefit                                  (13.0)   

Effective tax rate on continuing operations    6.2%    0.0%

Income taxes will be recognized on the installment basis for 
both financial and income tax purpose on the collection of the 
$5,000,000 note from the sale of Sports and Casinos.  There is 
about $100,000 basis in the subsidiaries; therefore, principal 
collection on the note will be fully taxable.

6.  CONTINGENCY

Litigation relating to the investigation as discussed in Note 
17 to the consolidated financial statements included in the 
Company's latest annual report, and discussed further in Note 
1 included by reference, has not been resolved to date.

Litigation relating to the State of Missouri as discussed in 
Note 1 included by reference has not been finalized to date.

Although the Company intends to defend vigorously any action 
that may be ultimately brought by the United States or the 
State of Missouri, no assurance can be given that management's 
beliefs as to the alleged criminality of its subsidiaries' 
operations, or its basis for such beliefs, are correct and 
that the Company will prevail.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition      
	   and Results of Operations

General

The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain 
significant factors which have affected the Company's financial 
position and operating results during the periods included in the 
accompanying consolidated financial statements. 

Results of Operations

For the six month period ended June 30,1998 and 1997 the statement 
of operations reflects a decrease in revenues from continuing 
operations amounting to $23,984 or 13%.  This decrease was 
attributable a reduction in licensing fees for 1998.  Expenses from 
continuing operations decreased by $217,200 in 1998 resulting from 
the consolidation of management and employees to a more economic 
and efficient facility together with a reduction in administrative 
personnel.  Loss from continuing operations decreased from $527,027 
in 1997 to $433,811 in 1998.

For the three month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 revenues 
from continuing operations decreased $55,328. Revenues from 
continuing operations include licensing, advertising, and Internet 
related Web design fees.  The decrease in revenues resulted from 
the postponement of certain licensing fees, which the Company 
anticipates, will be recovered in future period.  Expenses 
decreased from $322,386 in 1997 to $176,779 in 1998.  This decrease 
resulted from consolidating management and employees in a more 
economical and efficient facility together with a reduction in 
administrative personnel.  Loss from continuing operations 
decreased by $90,279 in 1998 or about 45%.

There was no income from discontinued operations for the quarter 
ended June 30, 1998 since the gaming subsidiaries were sold during 
the first quarter of 1998.   

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Current liabilities exceed current assets by $873,548 in 1998 
compared to $1,702,209 in 1997.  The reduction in the working 
capital deficit resulted from the sale of Sports and Casinos.  The 
Company anticipates further reductions in future periods as the 
$5,000,000 note amortizes.  Further capital resources is 
anticipated with increased licensing activities and the development 
and sale of new Internet gaming software. 

<PAGE>

Government Regulation - Effect on Financing

The Company's business is legally constituted and organized in 
Grenada, West Indies, and a license fee is paid to the 
Grenadan government to conduct its business in the Gaming and 
Licensing Division.  The Company's business activities 
emanating from the United States (customers' wagers) may be 
materially affected by regulations and actions that may now be 
in place or will be promulgated in the future by the various 
local, state, and/or federal government regulators.  However, 
with the sale of Sports and Casinos in 1998, the Company is no 
longer involved with customers' wagers.  But there continues 
to remain the uncertainty of how the U.S. and other world 
governments will look upon gambling on the Internet which may 
deter major financial and/or investment companies from 
participating in any capital venture with the Company.  In 
this regard, on February 19, 1997, the Company was served with 
a warrant to produce all records involving gambling activities 
emanating from the U.S.  The Company has co-operated with the 
U.S. Attorney's office in Philadelphia in providing such 
records.  In addition, the State of Missouri in April 1997 
sought an injunction in its courts seeking to restrict the 
Company from offering the Global Casino through the Internet 
to Missouri residents.  While not admitting personal 
jurisdiction, the Company through its counsel agreed not to 
offer these services to Missouri residents.  The Company 
posted a notice to this effect within its Internet web site.  
Subsequently, an investigator employed by the State of 
Missouri accessed the Company's web site; apparently 
determining that the Company had breached its agreement with 
Missouri.  Accordingly, in May of 1997, the State of Missouri 
indicted the Company and its President, Michael F. Simone, and 
filed a judgement in the amount of $66,050 for statutory 
"gambling" violations in Missouri. Both the Company and Mr. 
Simone, through their counsel, have negotiated a settlement 
amounting to a $2,500 fine for Mr. Simone and $5,000 fine and 
$20,000 persecutory and investigative fees for the Company 
together with a second degree misdemeanor plea agreement for 
each party.
