Item 1. Changes in Control of Registrant
Pursuant to a Plan of Reorganization and Exchange Agreement (the
"Agreement") dated as of April 30, 1999 and entered into on May 3, 1999, the
shareholders of Zeros & Ones, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("ZOI"), will receive
from Commercial Labor Management, Inc., a Nevada corporation, ("CLMI" or
"Registrant"), 6,000,000 newly-issued shares of Registrant's Common Stock in
exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of Zeros & Ones, Inc. (the
"Acquisition"). The 6,000,000 shares would represent approximately 90% of the
outstanding shares of the common stock of Registrant on a fully-diluted basis.
Shareholders of CLMI have agreed to surrender and return 3,800,000 outstanding
shares of CLMI common stock at the closing of the Acquisition to facilitate the
transaction.
Pursuant to the Agreement, Zeros & Ones, Inc. will designate up to five
persons to be the new directors of Registrant on the closing of the Acquisition
and the present directors of Registrant will resign as directors subject to
compliance with Section 14f of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
as necessary. The new directors have not yet been designated by Zeros & Ones,
Inc.
Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
The Plan of Reorganization and Exchange Agreement with Zeros & Ones,
Inc. is subject to numerous conditions and contingencies. Pursuant to the
Agreement, the shareholders of Zeros & Ones, Inc. will exchange 100% of the
shares of ZOI's common stock for an aggregate consideration of 6,000,000 shares
of Registrant's Common Stock. The number of shares of Registrant's Common Stock
to be issued pursuant to the Agreement was determined by arms-length
negotiations in consideration of the financial condition of CLMI as compared to
the existing business of ZOI. There is no assurance regarding if or when the
Acquisition will close.
Upon the closing of the Acquisition, Registrant will own 100% of the
issued and outstanding shares of ZOI.
Upon execution of the Agreement, ZOI tendered $75,000 in cash to CLMI
or its designee, from which CLMI will pay all accounts payable set forth on the
CLMI Financial Statements, or which are incurred after December 31, 1998, with
the balance allocable as determined by CLMI in its discretion. ZOI has tendered
an additional $15,000 to CLMI to be allocated (i) first, to pay any CLMI
accounts payable, and then (ii) as determined by CLMI in its discretion. On May
15, 1999, ZOI will tender to CLMI an additional $15,000, and on the sooner to
occur of June 30, 1999 or the closing, ZOI will tender to CLMI a payment of
$87,500 in cash, all to be allocated in the same manner.
<PAGE>
Pursuant to the Agreement, in the event that: (i) ZOI does not provide
the financial information necessary for Registrant to comply with its
obligations to provide such information in connection with Registrant's filing
obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or (ii) by the
closing of the Acquisition ZOI does not have positive net stockholders' equity
of at least $5,000,000, the Registrant will have the right but not the
obligation to cancel the Acquisition. ZOI is presently making a private
placement of its stock to achieve the level of net stockholders' equity
necessary to satisfy the condition in the Agreement. There is no assurance ZOI
will satisfy the net stockholders' equity condition in the Agreement.
The descriptions of the Agreement and the Acquisition contained in this
report are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Agreement, dated as
of April 30, 1999, by and among Registrant, Zeros & Ones, Inc. and the
shareholders of ZOI filed as Exhibit 7.1 to this report.
Item 3. Bankruptcy or Receivership
None.
Item 4. Changes in Registrants Certifying Accountant

Item 5. Other Events
The Company which is being acquired by Registrant is described
as follows:
Zeros & Ones, Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation
engaged in the business of providing technical consulting
services to major technology developers, developing quality
Web sites, providing direct to consumer retailing, and
creating core technologies that other software and hardware
developers can integrate into their own products. In 1996, the
Company established a division called Studio Subzero to design
and develop Web convergence of traditional media such as
television and radio and communication tools such as telephony
and facsimile. In early 1999, Zeros & Ones, Inc. entered into
a Plan and Agreement of Reorganization with each of the
following technology companies: Quantum Arts, Inc., a
California Corporation ("Quantum"), EKO Corporation, a
California corporation ("EKO"), KidVision, Inc., a California
corporation ("Kidvision"), Wood Ranch Technology Group, Inc.,
a California corporation ("Wood Ranch"), and Polygonal
Research Corporation, a California corporation ("Polygonal").
On the closing of the Acquisition, ZOI will own 100% of each
of these companies as subsidiaries. KidVision, EKO, and
<PAGE>
Polygonal should be considered start-up development stage
companies with no significant operating history.
Quantum is a media consulting and production company located
in Burbank, California. Quantum specializes in digital asset
development and production for informational and entertainment
purposes.
EKO is an Internet based commerce oriented online services and
virtual community for entertainment professionals. EKO is
currently building its planned website for the Internet.

portal Web site, and plans to distribute educational products
through its own mail order catalog. KidVision also plans to
operate an e-commerce catalog on the Kids Educational Network

Media Production Center
("AMPC").
Polygonal is the developer of an image compression technology
called Dynamic Polygonal Compression ("DPC"). Polygonal plans
to manufacture and market products that utilize the DPC
engine.
Zeros & Ones, Inc. believes that by consolidating the
technical expertise of all these companies, it will be in a
unique position to create core technologies and advances in
media services.
