ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

(a)      BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

         In December 1990, Pursuit Ventures Corporation was incorporated in the
State of Delaware. In August 1998, Pursuit Ventures Corporation merged with
Remington Assets Limited, a Colorado corporation incorporated in March 1997.
Under the terms of the merger, Pursuit Ventures Corporation became the surviving
entity. In September 1998, Pursuit Ventures Corporation changed its name to
Reliance Resources Inc. On August 6, 1999, Reliance Resources Inc. entered into
a share exchange agreement with SUM Media Corp. (formerly known as E-Com Media
Corp.), a British Columbia, Canada Internet media and marketing company.
Pursuant to the terms of the exchange agreement, Reliance Resources Inc. issued
3,200,000 common shares to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of
SUM Media Corp. Immediately after the share exchange, Reliance Resources Inc.
focused its operations on Internet media and marketing. From inception to the
date of the share exchange, Reliance Resources Inc. was an inactive company. On
August 25, 1999, Reliance Resources Inc. changed its name to SUMmedia.com Inc.
(the "Company" or "SUMmedia.com")

         On August 30, 1999, SUMmedia.com received approval to change its
trading symbol on the over-the-counter bulletin board from "PSVC" to "ISUM."

         SUMmedia.com is a development stage company.

 (b)     BUSINESS OF THE ISSUER

Business

         SUMmedia.com is an Internet media and marketing company that provides
online coupons, or "eCoupons," for small businesses through its portal,
savingumoney.com. SUMmedia.com's goal is to provide Internet marketing
initiatives for smaller businesses lacking the expertise or financial resources
to carry on "eCommerce." In addition to its current eCoupon operations,
SUMmedia.com receives revenue from the sale of banner advertisement space on its
websites and from the sale of web sites it custom develops for its customers.

         SUMmedia.com plans to develop, market and support online marketing and
promotional activities for web site hosting, as well as online shopping
"storefronts" that enable small businesses to cost effectively utilize the
Internet, regardless of their size, resources or global address.

         SUMmedia.com plans to address the following issues that are frequently
encountered by development stage companies in new and rapidly evolving markets:

     o    protecting and enhancing its corporate brand, SUMmedia.com, through
          investment relationships, strategic links, public relations and
          traditional trademark protection protocols;
     o    protecting and enhancing its eCoupon web site, savingumoney.com,
          through aggressive marketing and contracting with a search engine
          optimization specialist;
     o    expanding its products and services and increasing the value of its
          eCouponing services;
     o    increasing the amount of Internet traffic to SUMmedia.com and
          savingumoney.com, as well as other company web sites currently under
          development;
     o    increasing the number and types of its business customers;
     o    attracting, retaining and motivating qualified personnel; and
     o    developing the company's financial, information technology and
          operations infrastructure.

PROTECTING AND ENHANCING ITS CORPORATE BRAND, SUMMEDIA.COM.

         The business partnerships and relationships that SUMmedia.com intends
to create are important components of protecting and enhancing its corporate
brand. These relationships will provide brand enhancing benefits, including:

     o    credibility in current and future markets;
     o    newspaper and online advertising space on a contra basis; and
     o    product innovations, including wireless applications and secured
          eCoupons.

         Another tool SUMmedia.com uses to protect and enhance its corporate
brand is the seamless integration of the SUMmedia.com brand into all of its web
sites. From its savingumoney.com web site, to the sites developed and hosted for
its customers, corporate branding will be reinforced via a "powered by
SUMmedia.com" message that will directly link to SUMmedia.com's corporate web
site.

         SUMmedia.com also utilizes traditional public relations methods to
enhance its corporate brand. SUMmedia.com's news releases, press conferences and
editorial coverage include specifics about SUMmedia.com designed to reinforce
its corporate brand with the investment community and prospective customers and
eCoupon users.

         Lastly, SUMmedia.com has endeavored to protect all of its various
brands through traditional trademark protection protocols.

PROTECTING AND ENHANCING ITS ECOUPON WEB SITE, SAVINGUMONEY.COM.

         SUMmedia.com's primary web site, savingumoney.com, is now operational
in several Canadian markets, either directly or through business alliances with
third parties. In addition, support offices are open in the following locations:

     o    Seattle, Washington: U.S. corporate office; Seattle marketing launched
          in mid-February 2000;
     o    Hong Kong: joint venture; marketing launch anticipated in early March
          2000; and
     o    Sydney, Australia: joint venture; marketing launch pursuant to a non
          binding agreement with ISEC Ltd. anticipated in early April 2000.

         It is anticipated that the opening of new markets will protect and
enhance the savingumoney.com brand by providing broader geographic coverage.
However, management believes that the key component of enhancing the brand is to
secure its place on the consciousness of consumers. To this end, the following
marketing communications plans, at a total estimated cost of $10.7 million U.S.,
are in place:

     o    Canada: an online and traditional media launch at a cost of $3 million
          for 2000;
     o    Seattle: a five-week online and traditional media launch at a cost of
          $500,000, with an additional $1 million expected to be spent through
          year end;
     o    U.S.: new U.S. territory initial advertising launches at a cost of $3
          million to be spent through the year for territories yet to be
          defined;
     o    Hong Kong: a five-week integrated media launch at a cost of $400,000,
          with another $800,000 expenditure expected through the remainder of
          the year; and
     o    Sydney: an integrated, five-week launch at a cost of $500,000, plus an
          additional $1.5 million expenditure through year end.

         In addition to the marketing launches listed above, SUMmedia.com's
management anticipates that a worldwide launch of its products to commence
during the next year would add at least another $50 million U.S. to its total
costs.

EXPANDING SUMMEDIA.COM'S PRODUCTS AND SERVICES AND INCREASING THE VALUE OF ITS
ECOUPONING SERVICES.

         Several product and service enhancements and innovations are at various
stages of their respective development cycles. The following are product and
service enhancements relating to savingumoney.com:

     o    easier to use design;
     o    data-driven eCoupons with improved consumer functionality;
     o    value-added services for members, such as email date reminders,
          personalization and shopping lists;
     o    pop-up advertising features to be sold to eCoupon customers;
     o    "mini-Web sites" to be sold to customers desiring to expand their
          eCoupon presence on SUMmedia.com's site;
     o    secured eCoupons aimed at satisfying the "retailer abuse" concerns
          of major packaged goods manufacturers; and
     o    savingumoney.com "eMalls" in which eCoupon customers will be able to
          sell their products online at themed online malls.

         SUMideas.com, SUMmedia.com's Web site development/hosting service,
through which SUMmedia.com will introduce new services, such as a low-priced
entry level site design and hosting program (enabling customers to order and buy
online, as well as through SUMmedia.com's sales force), is also expected to
accelerate growth.

INCREASING THE AMOUNT OF INTERNET TRAFFIC TO SUMMEDIA.COM AND SAVINGUMONEY.COM

         The amount of traffic driven to SUMmedia.com's web sites will be
increased through SUMmedia.com's efforts to enhance its corporate and eCoupon
web site brands using the various marketing and other initiatives described
above. In addition, SUMmedia.com plans to use strategic alliances and business
partnerships to further enhance the traffic to its company website.

         SUMmedia.com also intends to contract for the services of a search
engine optimization specialist to promote savingumoney.com to higher search
engine rankings.

INCREASING THE NUMBER AND TYPES OF BUSINESS CUSTOMERS

         Unlike the majority of its competitors, SUMmedia.com caters to the vast
number of smaller businesses and does not focus on Fortune 500-type companies.
The number of small businesses that are potential customers of SUMmedia.com is
continually growing, as new businesses are created every day. In addition,
management believes that many of these smaller businesses will be most likely to
use SUMmedia.com's ability to quickly and easily bring a business online.

         Notwithstanding its targeted appeal to small businesses, SUMmedia.com
has also identified a strategy to attract large national/multinational brands to
its services. Management believes that there are many large companies that
remain skeptical of online couponing. While they are attracted by the timely and
inexpensive delivery of coupons via the Internet, large companies are concerned
about potential abuse by retailers. For example, one of their recurring concerns
is that retailers may simply print online coupons themselves and fraudulently
submit them for reimbursement by the manufacturers.

         To address this issue, SUMmedia.com's senior information technology and
marketing personnel are working closely with SUMmedia.com's technology partners
to develop a potentially patentable solution. If this solution is put in place,
SUMmedia.com could attract large consumer packaged goods manufacturers as
eCoupon customers and also act as their coupon redemption clearing house,
thereby creating an entirely new revenue stream for SUMmedia.com.

<PAGE>   5

ATTRACTING, RETAINING AND MOTIVATING QUALIFIED PERSONNEL

         In order to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel,
SUMmedia.com is adopting highly competitive and innovative human resource
policies. Salary structures and benefit programs will be equivalent to or
supersede those offered by others in similar businesses. In addition, most
employees will be offered employee stock options when they join SUMmedia.com.
Management believes that one of the keys to the success of the business is the
quality of its people. The policies and procedures of the Company will reflect
this belief.

DEVELOPING THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND OPERATIONS
INFRASTRUCTURE

         In order to support SUMmedia.com's operations in the areas of Internet
research, growth and maintenance of internal operations and geographical
expansion, the Company expects to spend approximately $4.0 million in the next
year. Internet research consists of staying current with technological changes
related to the Internet and ensuring that the Company's web site has competitive
content. The Company expects to employ 10 additional employees in the next year
to conduct ongoing Internet research. The growth and maintenance of internal
operations is required to match the expected growth in sales in the upcoming
year. Also, SUMmedia.com expects to spend approximately $1 million for hardware,
approximately $500,000 for software and add approximately 15 people to the
information technology team to meet the needs of its expected growth in internal
operations.  In addition, SUMmedia.com expects to spend approximately $1 million
on hardware, $500,000 on software, and add 10 employees in order to undertake
its planned geographical expansion. Total salaries for the additional
information technology employees required is anticipated to be approximately $1
million.

         In addition to the technological staff requirements, management
anticipates that an additional 40 administration staff members will be required
to support the growth in other areas of SUMmedia.com's business. To handle the
new staff levels, management also anticipates requiring additional office space
and furniture. In total, the additions to administration staff and facilities
could add $5 million to SUMmedia.com's operational costs.

Product Offerings

         Of its services, SUMmedia.com anticipates that eCoupons will be its
major source of revenue for the foreseeable future. SUMmedia.com's eCoupon
offerings are still in their infancy, and, as a result, the effectiveness of
eCoupons, as compared to traditional methods of reaching customers, cannot yet
be determined. SUMmedia.com hopes to demonstrate to corporate customers that its
eCoupons will increase the rate at which comparison shoppers become purchasers,
improve customer satisfaction on SUMmedia.com's web sites and offer a
cost-effective alternative to newspaper and magazine advertising. If
SUMmedia.com is unable to do this, its ability to attract and retain corporate
customers will likely be impaired.

         SUMmedia.com offers three types of eCoupon contracts. In the first type
of contract, the "millennium special," the customer pays the company in advance
a non-refundable one-year fee to have its eCoupon posted on SUMmedia.com's web
site for a period of one year. The second type of contract that SUMmedia.com
offers provides for a one-year commitment in which the customer pays a monthly
fee to have its eCoupon posted on SUMmedia.com's web site. In this contract, the
customer obtains the first three months at no cost and does not have the right
to cancel. The third type of contract SUMmedia.com offers provides 90 days of
free service to the customer, after which time the customer may decide if they
want to enter into a one-year contract. If SUMmedia.com is unable to offer
sufficient value to its customers during the term of the 90-day contract, the
customers may not renew their contracts. If SUMmedia.com does not obtain a
sufficient amount of contract renewals, or if such renewal contracts are
obtained on terms less favorable than the original contracts, its business will
be materially adversely affected.

         Revenues related to eCoupon contracts are recognized by SUMmedia.com
ratably over the duration of the contract. For contracts where customers have a
90-day free trial with the right to cancel, no revenue is recognized until the
customer enters into a one-year contract.

         Currently, SUMmedia.com has approximately 3,200 eCoupon customers. Of
SUMmedia.com's 3,200 eCoupon customers, approximately 3,050 are doing business
under a 90-day promotional program (all figures represent eCoupon customers who
have signed a one year contract). All customers have contracts that span at
least one year. Less than five percent of the customers have contracts greater
than one year.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                     page 5

<PAGE>   6
         SUMmedia.com also generates revenues from web page design and
development. The amount charged to the customer for the web page design is based
on the length of time required to develop the customer's web pages. All details
of the web page design are outlined in a contract which is signed and approved
by the customer. Upon signing the contract, the customer is required to make a
50% non-refundable deposit. Upon completion of the web page and approval by the
customer, the remaining 50% is payable. The market for the creation of web pages
is very competitive. Management hopes to use the contacts it has established
through its eCoupon business to obtain web page development work. SUMmedia.com
recognizes revenues related to the development of customer web pages using the
completed contract method. To date, revenues from this source have been
insignificant.

         A third source of revenue for SUMmedia.com is regional exclusivity
fees. Regional exclusivity fees represent amounts paid to the company for the
exclusive right to market the company's products in a predefined geographic
region. The exclusivity fee charge depends on the number of customers in the
region being granted and the percentage of those customers who are expected to
use the Internet. Revenues from regional exclusivity fees are recognized when
the initial set up and training services are complete and the company is
satisfied that all significant obligations in accordance with the terms of the
arrangement have been met and collectibility of the related fees is reasonably
assured.

         An incidental revenue source for SUMmedia.com is banner ad advertising,
pursuant to which SUMmedia.com customers pay for the right to advertise on one
of the SUMmedia.com web sites. Generally, contracts for banner ads range from
one month to one year in duration. Currently, over 90% of SUMmedia.com's banner
ad contracts are for periods from one to three months. The company recognizes
revenues related to banner ads ratably over the term of the banner ad contract.
To date, revenues from this source have been insignificant. It is anticipated
that revenues from Internet advertising, as opposed to eCoupon revenue, will
provide an incidental portion of SUMmedia.com's future revenues. Because the
Internet advertising market is new and rapidly evolving, SUMmedia.com cannot yet
gauge its effectiveness, as compared to traditional advertising media.
Advertisers that have traditionally relied on other advertising media may be
reluctant to advertise on the Internet in the belief that Internet advertising
is less effective than traditional advertising media for promoting their
products and services. Consequently, advertisers may allocate only limited
portions of their advertising budgets to Internet advertising. Another risk lies
in the deep discounting offered by online advertising, a strategy that
SUMmedia.com believes it must match for the foreseeable future in order to
penetrate this market. Deep discounting occurs when companies charge rates that
are barely profitable, or even loss-leading rates, in order to gain a presence
on the web. SUMmedia.com expects that, as the Internet matures, deep discounting
will subside. Since Internet advertising is not expected to be a significant
revenue source, the effect of deep discounting on SUMmedia.com's operations will
likely be negligible.

Sales Channels

         SUMmedia.com employs a direct sales team of approximately 60 full-time
employees in North America. The sales team are paid with a base salary and a
commission based on products sold. The direct sales team gains and retains
customers through door-to-door, phone, Internet and mail solicitation.
Additionally, via its web site, SUMmedia.com offers users the ability to
recommend the service to friends and associates. SUMmedia.com is also currently
exploring an employee referral program. In the future, SUMmedia.com plans to use
strategic business alliances and partnerships to help increase its customer base
further.

                                     page 6

<PAGE>   7
         Currently, SUMmedia.com offers its services to Canadian customers
through its British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario eCoupon portals. Additionally,
SUMmedia.com offers its services to U.S. customers directly via its Seattle
eCoupon portal, launched in February 2000, and through Canadian companies that
are marketing to the traveling public, including U.S. travelers. SUMmedia.com is
currently identifying other key market opportunities in the U.S. and expects to
rollout in these markets throughout the current year.

         SUMmedia.com also anticipates adding customers in Australia, Hong Kong,
Japan, Malaysia, Singapore and Europe, based on anticipated rollouts in those
countries throughout 2000. It is anticipated that, in all rollouts, the product
lines and services offered will be virtually identical to the products and
services presently offered by the Company.

Competition

         There are a significant number of sites on the Internet offering
coupons for use online and offline. Two of SUMmedia.com's most significant
competitors are ValuPage.com and CoolSavings.com. ValuPage.com is a grocery-only
coupon site, while CoolSavings.com is exclusively focused on nationally branded
products and national retail chains. CoolSavings.com carries coupons for
approximately 300 companies. In addition to these two significant competitors,
there are numerous smaller online coupon sites, as well as companies using
traditional media such as newspaper inserts, direct mail flyers and co-op
envelopes to distribute their coupons. Many of SUMmedia.com's existing
competitors, as well as potential new competitors, have longer operating
histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly
greater financial, technical and marketing resources than SUMmedia.com.

Intellectual Property

         SUMmedia.com is attempting to be proactive in protecting its
intellectual property rights. It has filed five trademark applications in
Canada, Hong Kong, the U.S. and the European Union and is in the process of
filing applications in Australia and additional ones in the U.S. SUMmedia.com
filed copyright registrations in Canada for its web site designs in February
2000. SUMmedia.com owns approximately 20 domain names and is in the process of
protecting them with trademarks. SUMmedia.com is in the process of applying for
a U.S. patent for certain elements of its technology.

         Pursuant to Canadian intellectual property laws, copyright protection,
at a base level, is acquired automatically in Canada for the computer programs
and web site designs developed by SUMmedia.com employees. Canadian law provides
a higher level of copyright protection once the copyright is registered.
SUMmedia.com anticipates filing copyright applications for SUMMEDIA and SAVING U
MONEY in the near future.

         In general, SUMmedia.com plans to protect its copyrights, service
marks, trademarks, and trade secrets through a combination of laws and
contractual restrictions, including confidentiality and non-disclosure
agreements. For example, SUMmedia.com may elect to register its trademarks and
service marks in the United States and internationally. However, effective
trademark, service mark, copyright and trade secret protection may not be
available in every country in which SUMmedia.com's services are made available
online. Because SUMmedia.com is devoting significant resources to building its
brands, primarily "savingumoney.com" and "SUMmedia.com," through media
advertising campaigns, if it is not granted registered status for the trade and
service marks for which it has applied, or if it is unable to defend its
intellectual property rights, its business may be materially and adversely
affected.

         Computer programs and web site designs, or portions thereof, that have
been developed by independent contractors and consultants engaged by
SUMmedia.com are supported by the proper agreements to transfer the copyright
and ownership rights to SUMmedia.com. Non-disclosure, assignment of invention
and non-competition agreements are required to be delivered by all employees and
consultants of SUMmedia.com to ensure that any individual ownership rights in
intellectual property are transferred to SUMmedia.com.

Regulation

         Any new law or regulation pertaining to the Internet, or the
application or interpretation of existing laws, could decrease the demand for
SUMmedia.com's services, increase its cost of doing business or otherwise have a
material adverse effect on its business. There is, and will likely continue to
be, an increasing number of laws and regulations pertaining to the Internet.
These laws or regulations may relate to liability for information retrieved from
or transmitted over the Internet, online content regulation, user privacy,
taxation, and the quality of products and services. Furthermore, the growth and
development of electronic commerce may prompt popular demand for more stringent
consumer protection laws that may impose additional burdens on electronic
commerce companies. Moreover, the applicability to the Internet of existing laws
governing intellectual property ownership and infringement, copyright,
trademark, trade secret, obscenity, libel, employment, personal privacy and
other issues is uncertain and developing.

         SUMmedia.com will file tax returns in such jurisdictions as required by
law based on principles applicable to traditional businesses. However, one or
more jurisdictions could seek to impose additional income tax obligations or
sales tax collection obligations on foreign companies, such as SUMmedia.com,
which engage in or facilitate electronic commerce. A number of proposals have
been made at state and local levels that could impose such taxes on the sale of
products and services through the Internet or the income derived from such
sales. Such proposals, if adopted, could substantially impair the growth of
electronic commerce and adversely affect SUMmedia.com's business.


Research and Development

         During the year ended December 31, 1999, SUMmedia.com expended $97,014
on research and development. No costs were incurred in prior years. Research and
development costs consisted primarily of payments to outside contractors and
associated expenses related to engineering design work and testing of
SUMmedia.com's technology. SUMmedia.com expects to spend approximately $500,000
on research and development and related activities in the year 2000. These
activities include the design of new company web pages and the development of
new coupon delivery technologies. Amounts expended will consist primarily of
salaries to company employees and fees paid to consultants.

Employees

         As of December 31, 1999, SUMmedia.com had 89 employees (including 16 in
Toronto, Ontario, 57 in Vancouver, British Columbia, and 16 in Seattle,
Washington). SUMmedia.com has never experienced an employee organized work
stoppage, and no employees are represented under collective bargaining
agreements. SUMmedia.com considers relations with its employees to be good.
SUMmedia.com plans to open corporate or joint venture sales offices in 15 new
cities or regions over the next 12 months. Each launch of a business in a new
region is expected to require the addition of approximately 25 employees. As a
result, the company expects to add approximately 375 additional employees during
the next year.

Forward-Looking Statements

         This document contains certain forward-looking statements that involve
risks and uncertainties, such as statements of SUMmedia.com's plans, objectives,
expectations and intentions. When used in this document, the words "expects,"
"anticipates," "intends," "plans" and similar expressions are intended to

made in this document should be read as being applicable to all related forward
- -looking statements wherever they appear in this document. SUMmedia.com's actual
results could differ materially from those discussed in this document.

Cash requirements

         SUMmedia.com believes that its existing cash and cash sources will not
be sufficient to fund its losses from operations, its capital expenditures and
other obligations beyond the next three months. If SUMmedia.com is not
successful in generating sufficient cash flow from operations or in raising
additional capital when required in sufficient amounts and on terms acceptable
to SUMmedia.com, its business, financial condition and operating results will be
materially adversely affected.

         As detailed in previous sections, SUMmedia.com anticipates that at
least $70 million U.S. will be required over the next 12 months to fund the
following: opening of new markets and generating brand awareness ($10.7
million), worldwide launch of SUMmedia.com products ($50 million), expansion and
improvement of the company's financial and information technology infrastructure
($4.0 million), expansion and improvement of the Company's operations
infrastructure ($5.0 million), and continued research and development activities
($0.5 million).

         In order to meet the expected cash deficiency and liquidity issues,
SUMmedia.com's management team is aggressively pursuing third-party investors
and strategic alliances. In addition, previously completed private sales of
securities included warrants that allowed investors to invest an additional $13
million in SUMmedia.com within one-year of the date of the purchase of the
warrant.

Research and Development

         During the next 12 months, SUMmedia.com intends to expend approximately
$500,000 in the pursuit of Internet research and development. These expenditures
will relate to the development of new company web pages and the development of
new coupon delivery technologies. Amounts to be expended include salaries for
company employees and fees paid to consultants.

Purchases of significant equipment

         SUMmedia.com had commitments of approximately $810,000 related to
capital expenditures at December 31, 1999. Such expenditures will primarily be
for computer equipment and software for SUMmedia.com's enterprise-wide systems.
SUMmedia.com also has total minimum lease obligations of $1,264,663 under
certain operating leases, and $72,257 in capital leases, through October 2004.

Results of Operations

         SUMmedia.com commenced operations as an Internet media and marketing
company on August 6, 1999 with its purchase of all the issued and outstanding
shares of SUM Media Corp. From inception (December 7, 1990) to August 6, 1999,
SUMmedia.com was an inactive "shell" with no operations or revenues; it had an
accumulated deficit of approximately $60,000, comprised mainly of general and
administrative costs (legal, audit, etc.). As a result, comparative figures are
not meaningful and are, therefore, not included in this discussion.

         SUMmedia.com reports in its financial statements in the U.S. dollar,
but in 1999 its functional currency shifted to the Canadian dollar due to a
change in SUMmedia.com's principal business activity. While management expects
SUMmedia.com's functional currency to soon return to the U.S. dollar, it does
not anticipate exchange rate or inflation forces to be material until that time
because historical analysis of the two currencies shows relative stability.

         SUMmedia.com incurred a deficit of $7.6 million from August 6, 1999 to
December 31, 1999, due to stock based compensation, operating expenses,
marketing and branding development, goodwill amortization and continuing costs
of raising capital.

         Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1999 were $132,051.
Approximately 36% of SUMmedia.com's revenues for the year ended December 31,
1999 were derived from exclusivity fees from Canadian businesses. The balance of
SUMmedia.com's revenues were derived from eCoupon sales (approximately 37%),
website development (approximately 18%) and online advertising on SUMmedia.com's
web site (approximately 9%).

         General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31,
1999 were $2.4 million. These expenses are generally attributed to the hiring of
over 55 administrative staff to build the infrastructure of SUMmedia.com in
areas of executive management, administrative personnel and technical support
for SUMmedia.com's offices, at a cost of approximately $600,000. Another
significant expenditure was travel expenses associated with trips to the United
States, Australia and Asia to secure financing and business partners for
SUMmedia.com at a cost of approximately $300,000. Leased office space consisted
of approximately 16,200 square feet at December 31, 1999, resulting in a cost of
approximately $130,000. General and administrative expenses also include
approximately $260,000 relating to startup and business expansion costs relating
to SUMmedia.com's Hong Kong joint venture interest. SUMmedia.com anticipates
that general and administrative expenses will continue to increase as
SUMmedia.com pursues its product rollouts by expanding to new cities and
regions.

         In conjunction with the acquisition of SUM Media Corp. on August 6,
1999 (the "Acquisition"), the following transactions occurred concurrently with
the Acquisition. Tigerlily Financial Inc. ("Tigerlily") and Cambridge Asset
Holdings S.A. ("Cambridge"), consultants to the companies in arranging the
transaction, each acquired 1,125,000 common shares of SUM Media Corp. for
nominal consideration from two significant shareholders. These common shares
were immediately exchanged for a total of 800,000 common shares of the company
pursuant to the Acquisition. Tigerlily and Cambridge invested a total of
$1,000,000 in the company for 1,000,000 units consisting of one common share and
one share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share at
a price of $3 per share for a period of 24 months. These units were transferred
by Tigerlily and Cambridge to two significant shareholders of the company who
were officers and directors of the company. Based on the above, the Company
recorded an issuance of 800,000 common shares to Tigerlily and Cambridge for
cash proceeds of $1,000,000. The fair value of the 800,000 common shares, based
on the quoted market value of the Company's stock on the OTC bulletin board of
$3.75 per share at the time the private placement was announced, exceeded the
proceeds received by the Company by $2,000,000. Of this amount $1,000,000 has
been allocated as a direct cost of the Acquisition and the remaining $1,000,000
has been recorded as stock based compensation related to other services provided
to the Company and its shareholders prior to the Acquisition. The two
significant shareholders effectively received the 200,000 common shares and
1,000,000 share purchase warrants which have been recorded as stock based
compensation expense in the amount of $1,500,000.

         Research and development costs amounted to $97,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1999. Research and development costs were primarily comprised of
payments to outside contractors and expenses related to engineering design work
and testing of SUMmedia.com's technology. Product development expenses are
expected to increase to approximately $500,000, primarily due to the payment of
consulting fees and salaries related to the development of additional web sites
and new eCoupon technologies.

         During the year ended December 31, 1999, SUMmedia.com incurred $1.4
million on various sales and marketing costs, of which $450,000 was spent on
salaries for over 40 new sales and marketing employees, with the remainder being
spent on promotional activities. SUMmedia.com's sales and marketing expenses are
comprised primarily of compensation for SUMmedia.com's sales and marketing
personnel, advertising, tradeshow and other promotional costs and expenses for
creative design of SUMmedia.com's websites. These costs resulted primarily from
growth in the number of personnel, increases in online, radio, and international
advertising and third-party services. Sales and marketing expenses are expected
to increase in the near term due to branding, advertising and marketing
expenses, as well as incremental expenses associated with personnel additions
expected to be made in the next year.

         Amortization expense related to property and equipment was $97,000 for
the year ended December 31, 1999 during which period SUMmedia.com purchased
computers, office equipment, furniture and fixtures and software at a total cost
of $1.6 million. In addition, on the purchase of SUM Media Corp. SUMmedia.com
acquired $283,000 of property and equipment consisting primarily of computer
equipment ($168,000) and a leased promotional vehicle (a large four-wheel drive
military style truck decorated with the savingumoney.com logo) ($107,000).
Amortization expense related to Goodwill on the purchase of SUM Media Corp. was
$1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         At December 31, 1999, SUMmedia.com had $2,108,167 in cash, working
capital of $997,998 and shareholders' equity of $15,190,780. Net cash used in
SUMmedia.com's operating activities was $3,082,010 for the year ended December
31, 1999. Net cash flows used in operating activities consisted primarily of a
loss for the year of $7,594,282. The loss for the year was offset by non-cash
stock-based compensation charges of $2,500,000 and amortization of property and
equipment and goodwill of $1,178,152. The change in the Company's net working
capital also contributed $834,120 to operating cash flows.

         Cash flows from financing activities of $6,562,834 were derived
primarily from $7,309,000 of proceeds received from the issuance of common
shares.

         Cash flows used in investing activities of $1,340,712 related primarily
to purchases of property and equipment of $1,558,017. This amount was offset by
$212,591 of cash received on the acquisition of SUM Media Corp.

         Since SUMmedia.com has no significant revenues, working capital will
continue to be depleted by operating expenses. In an effort to improve the
company's working capital going forward, the company's management is attempting
to increase revenues through marketing and branding efforts and through the use
of strategic alliances. The anticipated shortfall in working capital for the
next year is expected to be eliminated through the aggressive pursuit of
third-party investors and strategic relationships by company management.

         For the year ended December 31, 1999, SUMmedia.com financed its
operations primarily through private sales of securities and unsecured advances
from the founders of SUM Media Corp. Dilutive equity issuances completed during
the year, including options granted to employees and warrants granted in private
sales of securities to third party investors, will, to the extent they are
exercised, improve the company's liquidity and capital resources.

         SUMmedia.com's funding needs may vary depending upon a number of
factors, including the number and nature of the marketing and sales launch
initiatives; progress of SUMmedia.com's research and development programs; the
number and breadth of these programs; the progress of the development and
commercialization efforts of new products; and competing technological and
market developments. In the future, SUMmedia.com will need to raise substantial
additional funds to continue to conduct its branding, marketing plans, research
and development, and to implement enterprise-wide infrastructure programs.
SUMmedia.com intends to seek additional funding through public or private
financing and up-front licensing fees of its technology. There can be no
assurance that such funds will be available on favorable terms, if at all. If
adequate funding is not available, SUMmedia.com may be required to delay, reduce
or eliminate one or more of its marketing strategies or research and development
programs. These changes may also require SUMmedia.com to seek funding on less
favorable terms than it would otherwise.

Year 2000 Issues

         Some currently installed computer systems and software products are
coded to accept only two-digit entries in the date code field and cannot
reliably distinguish dates beginning on January 1, 2000 or January 1, 2001 from
dates prior to the year 2000 or 2001. Many companies' software and computer
systems may need to be upgraded or replaced in order to correctly process dates
beginning in 2000 or 2001 and to comply with the "Year 2000" requirements.
SUMmedia.com has reviewed its internal programs and has determined that there
are no significant Year 2000 issues within SUMmedia.com's systems or services.
SUMmedia.com has completed modifications to its internal systems to fix
identified Year 2000 issues in an attempt to ensure Year 2000 compliance. The
costs of these modifications have not been material and have involved a
reallocation of internal resources rather than incremental expenditures.
SUMmedia.com believes that its own software is Year 2000 compliant. However,
while SUMmedia.com has not experienced Year 2000 related problems in the past,
it could face unexpected expenses to fix any Year 2000 issues or unanticipated
website outages, either of which would harm its business. In addition,
SUMmedia.com uses third-party equipment and software that may not be Year 2000
compliant. SUMmedia.com is also conducting a further review of third-party
software and embedded systems used in its online business. In addition,
SUMmedia.com expects that the incremental cost of all of these reviews will not
exceed $50,000. The cost of any necessary upgrades or changes cannot currently
be estimated. SUMmedia.com may be harmed if necessary upgrades or changes are
not identified, or, if identified, are not timely and successfully implemented
at an acceptable cost. SUMmedia.com also may be harmed by Year 2000 problems of
its vendors and business partners. For example, SUMmedia.com may rely on credit
card companies to collect the majority of its revenues from users. Due to the
nature of the credit card system, some industry analysts have questioned the
effect of the year 2000 on credit card processing and billing. Failure of
SUMmedia.com's credit card vendors or other third-party equipment or software
vendors to properly process dates for the year 2000 and thereafter could require
it to incur unanticipated expenses in seeking alternative means of payment or
hardware or software replacements. It also could result in loss of revenues or
unanticipated website outages. SUMmedia.com's marketing efforts are also
dependent on the continued operation of Internet portals and other Internet
sites on which it advertises.

         Although SUMmedia.com has not yet developed contingency plans with
respect to collecting payment under these circumstances, it is unable to make
such contingency plans if any significant number of the computers constituting
the Internet fail to process dates properly for the year 2000 or 2001 and there
is a system-wide slowdown or breakdown. SUMmedia.com's business is dependent on
the continued successful operation of the Internet. Any interruption or
significant degradation of Internet operations due to Year 2000 problems could
harm SUMmedia.com's business.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

         SUMmedia.com's exposure to market risk is principally confined to its
cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities, which have short
maturities and are held with high credit quality financial institutions and,
therefore, are believed to involve minimal market risk.

Business Overview

         SUMmedia.com is an Internet media and marketing company that provides
online coupons, or eCoupons, for small businesses through its portal,
savingumoney.com. SUMmedia.com's goal is to provide Internet marketing
initiatives for smaller businesses lacking the expertise to exploit eCommerce
opportunities.

Future Acquisitions

            SUMmedia.com will consider strategic acquisitions of companies with
a strong brand identity and with customer and product information databases that
augment its databases. It will be SUMmedia.com's practice to allow the acquired
company's management team to retain responsibility for critical front-end
business functions such as merchandising, creative presentation and marketing,
while consolidating operational functions under its organization to realize
economies of scale.

ITEM 3.  DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

         SUMmedia.com conducts all of its operations from leased and sub-leased
facilities at various locations. SUMmedia.com believes that its current
facilities will be adequate for its current and foreseeable future needs,
although future additions will be required with the establishment of any new
offices under SUMmedia.com's expansion plans.

The following table sets forth certain information relating to SUMmedia.com's
facilities:

ITEM 8.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

COMMON STOCK

         SUMmedia.com is authorized to issue 65,500,000 shares of $0.01 par
value common stock, of which 16,142,000 shares are issued and outstanding as of
December 31, 1999. As of December 31, 1999, SUMmedia.com had approximately 50
holders of record of its common stock. Holders of record of SUMmedia.com's
common stock did not include persons whose shares are held in their securities
brokerage accounts. Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to one vote
per share on all matters submitted to vote of the shareholders of SUMmedia.com.
However, in the election of directors, each holder of shares of common stock is
entitled to have as many votes for each share owned as there are directors to be
elected. There is no right to accumulate votes in the election of directors. A
majority of the votes entitled to be cast on a matter by a voting group
constitutes a vote for action on a matter. Subject to preferences that may apply
to shares of preferred stock outstanding, the holders of shares of common stock
are entitled to receive dividends out of assets legally available at such time
and in such amounts as the board of directors may from time to time determine.
Upon the occurrence of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the assets of
SUMmedia.com, the holders of shares of common stock will be entitled to share
ratably in the distribution of all assets remaining available for distribution
after satisfaction of all liability and the payment of any liquidation
preference on any outstanding preferred stock.

                                     PART II

ITEM 1.    MARKET PRICE OF AND DIVIDENDS ON THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND
           RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS

MARKET INFORMATION.

         SUMmedia.com's common stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board. The range
of high and low bid quotations for the year ended December 31, 1999 was between
$6.75 and $1.875. These quotations represent prices between dealers and do not
include retail markups, markdowns or commissions and may not necessarily
represent actual transactions. The source of the high and low bid information is
The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. Management has been unable to locate any trading
information for the quarterly periods ended between December 31, 1997 and July
9, 1999.

         The market in which SUMmedia.com's common stock trades is commonly
referred to as the electronic bulletin board. In this market, an investor may
find it more difficult to dispose of or to obtain accurate quotations as to the
market value of SUMmedia.com's common stock. In addition, SUMmedia.com is
subject to a rule promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission that
provides that, if SUMmedia.com fails to meet certain criteria set forth in such
rule, various sales practice requirements are imposed on broker/dealers who sell
SUMmedia.com's common stock to persons other than established customers and
accredited investors. For these types of transactions, the broker/dealer has to
make a special investor suitability determination for the purchaser and to have
received the purchaser's written consent to the transactions prior to sale.
Consequently, the rule may have an adverse effect on the ability of
broker/dealers to sell SUMmedia.com's common stock, which may, in turn, have an
adverse effect on the ability of purchasers to sell SUMmedia.com's common stock
in the market.

HOLDERS

         As of December 31, 1999, SUMmedia.com had approximately 50 holders of
record of its common stock.

DIVIDENDS

         SUMmedia.com has not declared cash dividends on its common stock since
its inception. SUMmedia.com does not anticipate paying any dividends on its
common stock in the foreseeable future.

ITEM 2.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         Subsequent to December 31, 1999, a legal action was brought against the
company by a former officer and director of the company for unfair dismissal.
Management intends to diligently prosecute this action and expects to ultimately
prevail. The company is not party to any other material legal proceedings.

ITEM 3.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS

         A decision to change SUMmedia.com's principal independent accountant
was recommended by the board of directors and was approved by the shareholders
on August 20, 1999. This change is the result of SUMmedia.com's desire to engage
a global accounting firm. In January 2000, SUMmedia.com appointed
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as its independent accountants.

ITEM 4.  RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

ITEM 5.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

         In February 2000, SUMmedia.com obtained $1.0 million of directors' and
officers' liability insurance. This policy insures the past, present and future
directors and officers of SUMmedia.com, with certain exceptions, from claims
arising out of any error, omission, misstatement, misleading statement, neglect
or breach of duty or act by any of the officers or directors of SUMmedia.com
while acting in their respective capacities as such. Claims include claims
arising under federal and state securities laws.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling
SUMmedia.com pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been
informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is
therefore unenforceable.


         Section 7-109-102 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act permits a
Colorado corporation to indemnify any director against liability if such person
acted in good faith and, in the case of conduct in an official capacity with the
corporation, that the directors conduct was in the corporation's best interest
and, in all other cases, that the director's conduct was at least not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation or, with regard to criminal proceedings,
the director had no reasonable cause to believe the director's conduct was
unlawful.

         SUMmedia.com's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide
that a corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the
state of Colorado, indemnify any person who was or is a party or threatened to
be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or
investigative, and whether formal or informal by reason of the fact that he or
she is or was a director, officer, fiduciary agent of the corporation or is or
was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, fiduciary
or agent of any other foreign or domestic corporation or of any partnership,
joint venture, trust, other enterprise or employee benefit plan. In addition,
the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation state that the corporation
shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to indemnify any other person to
the fullest extent allowed by the laws of the state of Colorado, except as may
be limited by law from time to time in effect.

(a development stage company)
Notes to Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements
(UNAUDITED) DECEMBER 31, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(expressed in U.S. dollars)





1    PRO FORMA TRANSACTION

     On August 6, 1999, SUMmedia.com Inc. (formerly Reliance Resources Inc.)
     ("the company") entered into a share exchange agreement with SUM Media
     Corp. (formerly E-Com Media Corp.), a British Columbia, Canada company.
     Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the company issued 3,200,000 common
     shares for all of the issued and outstanding shares of SUM Media Corp. This
     transaction has been accounted for using the purchase method whereby the
     fair value of the common shares issued by the company have been allocated
     to the net identifiable assets of SUM Media Corp. based on their fair
     values. The purchase price allocation also resulted in goodwill of
     $13,417,275 including an allocation of $1,000,000 relating to acquisition
     costs. Prior to this transaction, the company was inactive.

     The pro forma consolidated statement of operations gives effect to the
     share exchange as if it had occurred on January 1, 1999. Accordingly, the
     pro forma consolidated statement of operations reflects a pro forma
     adjustment recording the amortization of goodwill for the period from
     January 1, 1999 to August 6, 1999. This adjustment results in the
     amortization of $2,683,455 of goodwill for the year ended December 31,
     1999. Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over five years.


2    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations has been
     prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles in the United States and the pro forma assumption and adjustment
     described in note 1.

     The pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the year ended
     December 31, 1999 is based on the historical consolidated statement of
     operations of the company for year ended December 31, 1999, and the
     historical statement of operations of the SUM Media Corp. for the period
     from March 23, 1999 to August 6, 1999.

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations is not
     necessarily indicative of the results that actually would have resulted if
     the transactions reflected herein had been completed on the dates indicated
     or the results which may be obtained in the future. The unaudited pro forma
     consolidated statement of operations should be read in conjunction with
     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
     Operations and the consolidated financial statements of the company and
     financial statements of SUM Media Corp., including the respective notes
     thereto, included elsewhere herein.


3    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the pro
     forma consolidated statement of operations include those disclosed in the
     audited financial statements of the company.



                                                                             (1)

the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31,
1999 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States. 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 audit. We conducted our audit of these statements in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States,
which required 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 audit provides a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

The financial statements of SUMmedia.com INC. (formerly Reliance Resources Inc.)
for the year ended December 31, 1998 were audited by other independent
accountants whose report dated March 31, 1999 expressed an unqualified opinion
on those statements.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 1 to the
consolidated financial statements, the company has suffered recurring losses
from operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a
going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described
in note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1    NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     THE COMPANY

     SUMmedia.com Inc. (the "company" or "SUMmedia.com") is an Internet media
     and marketing company that provides online coupons for small and medium
     sized businesses through its portal, savingumoney.com. The company's
     business consists of providing Internet marketing initiatives including
     coupons, advertising banners, discount shopping and website design and
     hosting, as well as selling exclusive regional rights to market the
     company's products. For the year ended December 31, 1999, the majority of
     the company's customers were located in Canada.

     The company was incorporated on December 7, 1990, under the laws of the
     State of Delaware as Pursuit Ventures Corporation ("Pursuit"). Under a Plan
     and Agreement of Merger dated August 21, 1998, Pursuit merged with
     Remington Assets Limited, a Colorado corporation that was incorporated on
     March 20, 1997. Under the terms of the Agreement of Merger, Pursuit became
     the surviving company. Effective September 8, 1998, Pursuit changed its
     name to Reliance Resources Inc. ("Reliance"). In June 1999, Reliance
     completed a 1:32 forward stock split. These consolidated financial
     statements have been presented on a post stock split basis (note 8).

     On August 6, 1999, Reliance entered into a share exchange agreement with
     SUM Media Corp. (formerly E-Com Media Corp.), a British Columbia, Canada
     company. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Reliance issued 3,200,000
     common shares to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of SUM
     Media Corp. (note 3). On August 25, 1999, Reliance changed its name to
     SUMmedia.com Inc.

     GOING CONCERN

     The company has not yet generated significant revenues and has no assurance
     of future profitability. Even if marketing efforts are successful,
     substantial time may pass before profitability will be achieved. During
     this time, the company will require additional financing. The company has
     losses from operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to
     continue as a going concern.

     These audited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the
     basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern which assumes
     the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course
     of business. The company is in discussions with financing institutions with
     respect to securing equity financing. However, there are no assurances that
     the company will be successful in closing such financing transactions.

     The company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
     obtaining additional financing and upon its ability to attain profitable
     operations. These consolidated financial statements do not give effect to
     any adjustments that would be necessary should the company not be able to
     continue as a going concern.


                                                                             (1)

     Development stage

     The company's activities, subsequent to its acquisition of SUM Media Corp.,
     have primarily consisted of establishing facilities, recruiting personnel,
     conducting research and development, developing business and financial
     plans and raising capital. Accordingly, the company is considered to be in
     the development stage. The accompanying financial statements should not be
     regarded as typical for a normal operating period. Prior to its acquisition
     of SUM Media Corp., the company was inactive incurring only general and
     administrative expenses.


2    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

     These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
     with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

     BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

     These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the company
     and its wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, SUM Media Corp. All significant
     intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on
     consolidation.

     USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles in the United States requires the company's
     management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the amounts
     reported in these financial statements and the notes thereto. Actual
     results could differ from those estimates.

     FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND TRANSACTIONS

     The company's principal operations are carried out by its Canadian
     subsidiary. The functional currency of the Canadian subsidiary is the
     Canadian dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in a currency other
     than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using period end
     exchange rates and revenues and expenses denominated in other than the U.S.
     dollar are translated using average exchange rates for the period.
     Translation gains and losses are deferred and accumulated as a separate
     component of comprehensive income in shareholders' equity (deficit). Net
     gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included
     in the consolidated statement of operations.


                                                                             (2)

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

     Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on deposit and highly liquid
     short-term interest bearing securities with maturities at the date of
     purchase of three months or less. Interest earned is recognized immediately
     in the consolidated statement of operations.

     CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

     Financial instruments that potentially subject the company to a significant
     concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash
     equivalents, accounts receivable and sales tax recoverable which are not
     collateralized. The company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing
     its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial
     institutions. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts
     receivable are considered to be limited due to the low average billing and
     large number of customers comprising the company's customer base. The
     company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers financial
     condition to determine the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts. The
     company has not experienced significant credit losses to date.
     Concentrations of credit risk with respect to sales tax recoverable are
     considered to be limited as these amounts are owed to the company by a
     branch of Canadian Federal Government.

     FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

     The company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents,
     accounts receivable, sales tax recoverable, accounts payable and accrued
     liabilities, due to related parties and obligations under capital lease are
     carried at cost, which approximates their fair value.

     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

     Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization.
     Property and equipment are amortized on a straight line basis over their
     estimated useful lives as follows:

           Software                                            1 to 5 years
           Computer equipment                                       2 years
           Leased automobile                                        3 years
           Office equipment                                         5 years
           Furniture and fixtures                                   5 years
           Leasehold improvements                  the remaining lease term

     Software includes operating systems development programs, financial systems
     and the company's website system. The company capitalizes certain
     expenditures on software used in its operations in accordance with
     Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software
     Developed or Obtained for Internal Use".


                                                                             (3)

     IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

     The company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets in accordance
     with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for
     the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be
     Disposed of" ("SFAS"). SFAS No. 121 requires recognition of impairment of
     long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds
     the future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets.

     GOODWILL

     Goodwill, which is the excess of the purchase price of the company's
     interest in its subsidiary over the fair value of the underlying assets
     acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition, is amortized on a
     straight-line basis over five years. Periodically, management reviews the
     carrying value of goodwill by considering the expected undiscounted future
     cash flows of the related business. Permanent impairments in the value of
     the unamortized portion of goodwill are written down and charged to the
     consolidated statement of operations in the periods in which the impairment
     is determined.

     REVENUE RECOGNITION

     Revenues from the placement of customers' online coupons and advertising
     banners on the company's website for fixed or determinable fees are
     recognized rateably over the period of the contract unless collection is
     not reasonably assured in which case revenues are recognized when cash
     payments are received. Revenues related to the design and production of a
     customer's website are recognized at the time the customer has accepted the
     completed website and collection is reasonably assured. Revenues related to
     hosting customers' websites are recognized rateably over the period of the
     contract unless collection is not reasonably assured in which case revenues
     are recognized when cash payments are received. Revenues from regional
     exclusivity fees for the exclusive right to market the company's products
     in predefined regions are recognized when the initial set-up and training
     services are completed and the company is satisfied all significant
     obligations in accordance with the terms of the arrangement have been met
     and collectibility of the related fees is reasonably assured. To the extent
     that uncertainties exist in connection with the company's obligations
     related to regional exclusivity fees, the company only records revenues to
     the extent of costs incurred. In such circumstances, amounts received in
     excess of revenue recognized are included in deferred revenue.

     ADVERTISING EXPENSE

     The company recognizes advertising costs in accordance with Statement of
     Position ("SOP") 93-7 "Reporting on Advertising Costs." As such the company
     expenses the cost of producing advertisements at the time production
     occurs, and expenses the cost of communicating advertising in the period in
     which the advertising space or airtime is used. Advertising expenses
     totalled $nil, and $866,441 during the years ended December 31, 1998 and
     1999, respectively.


                                                                             (4)

     STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

     The company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in
     accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
     25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", ("APB No. 25") and complies
     with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
     Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No.
     123"). Under APB No. 25, compensation expense is recognized based on the
     difference, if any, on the date of grant between the estimated fair value
     of the company's stock and the amount an employee must pay to acquire the
     stock. Compensation expense is recognized immediately for past services and
     rateably for future services over the option vesting period.

     The company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the
     receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with
     SFAS No. 123 and the conclusions reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force
     in Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to
     Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or
     Services" (EITF 96-18). Costs are measured at the estimated fair market
     value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the
     equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value
     of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services
     is determined on the date on which there first exists a firm commitment for
     performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by EITF 96-18.

     For purposes of valuing the company's stock-based compensation
     transactions, the company uses the market price of its common shares, as
     quoted on the OTC-bulletin board, on the measurement date for the
     applicable transaction.

     INCOME TAXES

     Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach, which
     requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current
     period and deferred tax liabilities and assets for future tax consequences
     of events that have been recognized in the company's financial statements
     or tax returns. The measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities and
     assets are based on provisions of enacted tax laws; the effects of future
     changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated. The measurement of
     deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance,
     where, based on available evidence, the probability of realization of the
     deferred tax asset does not meet a more likely than not criterion.

     LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

     Loss per share computations are in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings
     Per Share" and Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 98. Basic net loss per
     share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares
     outstanding, after giving retroactive effect to the 1:32 forward stock
     split, as described in note 1. Diluted loss per share is computed using the
     weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive shares
     outstanding.



                                                                             (5)

     COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity from transactions
     and other events and circumstances other than those resulting from
     investments by owners and distributions to owners. Comprehensive income
     consists of net income and other comprehensive income. The accumulated
     balance of other comprehensive income is included in the equity section of
     the balance sheet. The company's other comprehensive income consists of
     foreign exchange translation adjustments.

     SEGMENT INFORMATION

     The company identifies its operating segments based on business activities,
     management responsibility and geographical location. During the year ended
     December 31, 1999, the company operated within a single operating segment,
     being online couponing services, and operated in only one geographic area,
     being Canada. In addition, substantially all of the company's assets are
     located in Canada and substantially all of its revenues are earned in
     Canada.

     RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
     issued Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
     Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" ("SOP98-1"). SOP98-1
     provides guidance for determining whether computer software is internal-use
     software and accounting for the proceeds of computer software originally
     developed or obtained for internal use and then subsequently sold to the
     public. It also provides guidance on capitalization of the costs incurred
     for computer software developed or obtained for internal use. The
     disclosures prescribed by SOP98-1 are effective for the year ended December
     31, 1999 consolidated financial statements. The adoption of SOP98-1 did not
     have a material impact on the company's consolidated financial statements.

     The company adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants'
     Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities"
     (SOP 98-5) effective January 1, 1999. SOP 98-5 requires that all start-up
     costs be expensed and that the effect of adopting SOP 98-5 be reported as
     the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The adoption of
     SOP 98-5 did not have a material impact on the company's consolidated
     financial statements.

     In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement Number 133 "Accounting for
     Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133
     establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments,
     embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that
     an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
     statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair
     value. The accounting for changes in fair value of the derivative depends
     on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. The
     company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 133 will have a material
     impact on its consolidated financial statements.


                                                                             (6)

     Based on a number of factors including, the lack of a history of profits,
     management believes that there is sufficient uncertainty regarding the
     realization of deferred tax assets such that a full valuation allowance has
     been provided.

     The income tax provision for the year ended December 31, 1999, differs from
     the amount obtained by applying the applicable statutory income tax rates
     to loss before income taxes as follows:

(expressed in U.S. dollars)

     As at December 31, 1998, the authorized common shares of the company
     consisted of 50,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001 of which
     2,000,000 common shares were issued and outstanding and 10,000,000
     preferred shares of which none were issued and outstanding. Pursuant to a
     June 4, 1999 Board of Directors resolution, the sole director and officer
     of the company agreed to the cancellation of 1,500,000 shares previously
     issued as compensation for management services. On June 16, 1999, the Board
     of Directors passed a resolution to adopt a forward stock split at a ratio
     of 1:32 with the effect that the total issued and outstanding shares
     increased to 16,000,000. Concurrently, the sole director and officer of the
     company executed a formal waiver of the right to receive 6,210,000
     post-split shares. As a result, the number of issued and outstanding shares
     then totalled 9,790,000. The forward stock split has been applied
     retroactively to all periods presented.

     On June 24, 1999, the company's Articles of Incorporation were amended to
     increase the company's authorized common shares to 65,500,000 shares,
     decrease the company's authorized preferred shares to 1,000,000 shares and
     increase the company's common share par value to $0.01.

     PREFERRED SHARES

     All series of preferred shares shall be alike except that there may be
     variations, as determined by the Board of Directors, as to:

     a)   right of dividend;

     b)   terms, conditions, and price of redemption;

     c)   amounts payable upon either voluntary and/or involuntary liquidation;

     d)   sinking fund provisions, if any, for the call or redemption of the
          shares;

     e)   terms and conditions of conversion, if any; and

     f)   voting rights consistent with Colorado law.

     Before issuing any shares of a class or series, the preferences,
     limitations and relative rights of which are determined by the Board of
     Directors, the company shall deliver to the Colorado Secretary of State
     appropriate Articles of Amendment, as required by law.

     As at December 31, 1999, no preferred shares were issued and outstanding.

                                                                            (12)

      (*) Equity units are comprised of one common share plus one share purchase

          i)    In conjunction with the acquisition of SUM Media Corp. (note 3)
                on August 6, 1999 (the "Acquisition"), the following
                transactions occurred concurrently with the Acquisition.
                Tigerlily Financial Inc. ("Tigerlily") and Cambridge Asset
                Holdings S.A. ("Cambridge"), consultants to the companies in
                arranging the transaction, each acquired 1,125,000 common shares
                of SUM Media Corp. for nominal consideration from two
                significant shareholders. These common shares were immediately
                exchanged for a total of 800,000 common shares of the company
                pursuant to the Acquisition. Tigerlily and Cambridge invested a
                total of $1,000,000 in the company for 1,000,000 units
                consisting of one common share and one share purchase warrant
                entitling the holder to purchase one common share at a price of
                $3 per share for a period of 24 months. These units were
                transferred by Tigerlily and Cambridge to two significant
                shareholders of the company who were officers and directors of
                the company. Based on these facts, the Company recorded an
                issuance of 800,000 common shares to Tigerlily and Cambridge for
                cash proceeds of $1,000,000. The fair value of the 800,000
                common shares, based on the quoted market value of the Company's
                stock on the OTC bulletin board of $3.75 per share at the time
                the private placement was announced, exceeded the proceeds
                received by the Company by $2,000,000. Of this amount $1,000,000
                has been allocated as a direct cost of the Acquisition and the
                remaining $1,000,000 has been recorded as stock based
                compensation related to other services provided to the Company
                and its shareholders prior to the Acquisition. The two
                significant shareholders effectively received the remaining
                200,000 common shares and 1,000,000 share purchase warrants
                which have been recorded as stock based compensation expense in
                the amount of $1,500,000.

          ii)   At December 31, 1999, $125,000 has not been received and
                recorded as subscriptions receivable.

          iii)  Consists of three separate private placements completed
                concurrently. In conjunction with these private placements, the
                company issued 159,900 options entitling the holder to purchase
                one common share at a price of $3 per share. The options expire
                September 9, 2002. The exercise price for the options granted
                was equal to the market value of the underlying stock quoted on
                the OTC-bulletin board at the date of grant. The company also
                incurred finders' fees of $60,000 related to these private
                placements.

      STOCK OPTION PLAN

      In October 1999, the company's Board of Directors adopted the 1999 Stock
      Option Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan provides for the issuance of up to 20%
      of the issued and outstanding common shares of the company in connection
      with incentive and non-statutory stock option awards granted to employees,
      directors and consultants to the company. Options will be issued in
      amounts in accordance with terms and conditions as determined by the
      company's Board of Directors. The stock option plan is subject to
      regulatory shareholder approval.

      A summary of activity under the plan is as follows:

      STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

      The company accounts for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic
      value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25
      "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". This method recognizes
      compensation cost as the amount by which the fair value of the stock
      exceeds the exercise price at the date of grant.

      Had the company determined compensation costs based on fair value at the
      date of grant for its awards under a method prescribed by Statement of
      Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-based
      Compensation" the company's loss and loss per share would be as follows:

b)       expected volatility of 80%;

c)       expected dividend yield of nil; and

d)       an estimated average life of two years.

      During the year ended December 31, 1999, revenue of $46,756 (1998 - $nil)
      from regional exclusivity fees was recognized, and offset by a
      corresponding amount of cost of sales related to the sale of marketing
      rights in three regions.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF
SUM MEDIA CORP.


In our opinion, the accompanying statements of operations, cash flows and
shareholders' equity (deficit), present fairly, in all material respects, the
results of SUM MEDIA CORP.'S (formerly E-Com Media Corp.) operations and its
cash flows for the period from March 23, 1999 (date of incorporation) to August
6, 1999 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. 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 audit. We conducted our audit of these
statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States, which required 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
audit provides a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 1 to the
financial statements, the company has suffered a loss from operations that
raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in note 1. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

SUM MEDIA CORP.
(formerly E-Com Media Corp.)
(a development stage company)
Notes to Financial Statements

AUGUST 6, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(expressed in U.S. dollars)


1     NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      THE COMPANY

      SUM Media Corp. (the "company" or "SUM Media") is an Internet media and
      marketing company that provides online coupons for small and medium sized
      businesses through its portal, savingumoney.com. The company's business
      consists of providing Internet marketing initiatives including coupons,
      discount shopping and website design and hosting, as well as selling
      exclusive regional rights to market the company's products. For the period
      ended August 6, 1999, the majority of the company's customers were located
      in Canada.

      The company was incorporated on March 23, 1999, as E-Com Media Corp. under
      the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada and on March 26, 1999
      changed its name to SUM Media Corp. On August 6, 1999, SUM Media entered
      into a share exchange agreement with Reliance Resources Inc. ("Reliance"),
      a Colorado company, quoted on the OTC-bulletin board. Pursuant to the
      terms of the agreement, Reliance issued 3,200,000 common shares to acquire
      100% of the issued and outstanding shares of SUM Media. Subsequent to the
      share exchange, Reliance changed its name to SUMmedia.com Inc. ("SUM").

      GOING CONCERN

      The company has not yet generated significant revenues and has no
      assurance of future profitability. Even if marketing efforts are
      successful, substantial time may pass before profitability will be
      achieved. During this time, the company will require additional financing.
      The company has losses from operations that raise substantial doubt about
      its ability to continue as a going concern.

      These audited financial statements have been prepared on the basis of
      accounting principles applicable to a going concern which assume the
      realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of
      business. The company is in discussions with financing institutions with
      respect to securing equity financing. However, there are no assurances
      that the company will be successful in closing such financing
      transactions.

      The company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
      obtaining additional financing through its parent company or otherwise and
      upon its ability to attain profitable operations. These financial
      statements do not give effect to any adjustments that would be necessary
      should the company not be able to continue as a going concern.

      DEVELOPMENT STAGE

      The company's activities since incorporation on March 23, 1999, have
      primarily consisted of establishing facilities, recruiting personnel,
      conducting research and development and developing business and financial
      plans. Accordingly, the company is considered to be in the development
      stage. The accompanying financial statements should not be regarded as
      typical for a normal operating period.




                                                                             (1)

Notes to Financial Statements

AUGUST 6, 1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


(expressed in U.S. dollars)


2     SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
      accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

      USE OF ESTIMATES

      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
      accepted accounting principles in the United States requires the company's
      management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the amounts
      reported in these financial statements and the notes thereto. Actual
      results could differ from those estimates.

      FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS

      The company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The financial
      statements are translated to United States dollars using the period-end
      exchange rate for assets and liabilities and weighted-average exchange
      rates for the period for revenues and expenses. Translation losses are
      deferred and accumulated as a component of other comprehensive income in
      shareholders' equity (deficit). Net gains and losses resulting from
      foreign exchange transactions are included in the statement of operations.

      CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

      Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on deposit and highly liquid
      short-term interest bearing securities with maturities at the date of
      purchase of three months or less. Interest earned is recognized
      immediately in the statement of operations.

      CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

      Financial instruments that potentially subject the company to a
      significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and
      cash equivalents, accounts receivable and sales tax recoverable which are
      not collateralized. The company limits its exposure to credit loss by
      placing its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial
      institutions. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts
      receivable are considered to be limited due to the low average billing and
      large number of customers comprising the company's customer base. The
      company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial
      condition to determine the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts.
      The company has not experienced significant credit losses to date.



                                                                             (2)

      PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

      Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization.
      Property and equipment are amortized on a straight-line basis over their
      estimated useful lives as follows:

<TABLE>

           Computer equipment                                              2 years
           Leased automobile                                               3 years
           Office equipment                                                5 years
           Furniture and fixtures                                          5 years
           Leasehold improvements                         the remaining lease term
</TABLE>

      REVENUE RECOGNITION

      Revenues from the placement of customers' online coupons on the company's
      website for fixed or determinable fees are recognized rateably over the
      period of the contract unless collection is not reasonably assured in
      which case revenues are recognized when cash payments are received.
      Revenues from regional exclusivity fees for the exclusive right to market
      the company's products in predefined regions are recognized when the
      initial set-up and training services are completed and the company is
      satisfied that all significant obligations under the terms of the
      agreements have been met and collectibility of the related fees is
      reasonably assured. To the extent uncertainties exist in connection with
      the company's obligations related to regional exclusivity fees, the
      company only records revenues to the extent of costs incurred. In such
      circumstances, amounts received in excess of revenue recognized are
      included in deferred revenue.

      STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

      The company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in
      accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
      25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", ("APB No. 25") and
      complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial
      Accounting Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation"
      ("SFAS No. 123"). Under APB No. 25, compensation expense is recognized
      based on the difference, if any, on the date of grant between the
      estimated fair value of the company's stock and the amount an employee
      must pay to acquire the stock. Compensation expense is recognized
      immediately for past services and rateably for future services over the
      option vesting period.

      For purposes of valuing the company's stock-based compensation
      transactions, the company used the market price of SUM's common stock, as
      quoted on the OTC-bulletin board, on the measurement date for the
      applicable transaction. SUM's common stock price was used as management
      believes this to be the most objective indicator of the fair value of the
      company's common stock due to the share exchange transaction (note 1)
      announced on July 7, 1999.



                                                                             (3)

      COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

      Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity from transactions
      and other events and circumstances other than those resulting from
      investments by owners and distributions to owners. Comprehensive income
      consists of net income and other comprehensive income. The accumulated
      balance of other comprehensive income is included in the statement of
      shareholders' equity (deficit). The company's other comprehensive income
      consists of foreign currency translation adjustments.

      SEGMENT INFORMATION

      The company identifies its operating segments based on business
      activities, management responsibility and geographical location. During
      the period ended August 6, 1999, the company operated within a single
      operating segment being online couponing services and operated in only one
      geographic area being Canada. In addition, substantially all of the
      company's assets are located in Canada and substantially all of its
      revenues are earned in Canada.

      RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

      In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement Number 133 "Accounting for
      Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133
      establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments,
      embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that
      an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
      statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair
      value. The accounting for changes in fair value of the derivative depends
      on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. The
      company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 133 will have a material
      impact on its financial statements.


3     REGIONAL EXCLUSIVITY FEES

      During the period ended August 6, 1999, revenue of $8,574 from regional
      exclusivity fees was recognized, and offset by a corresponding amount of
      cost of sales related to the sale of marketing rights in three regions.


4     RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      During the period ended August 6, 1999, SUMmedia.com Inc., which became
      the company's parent company on August 6, 1999, advanced the company
      $524,429. The advance is unsecured, non-interest bearing, and without
      stated terms of repayment.

      The company incurred $65,701 for management consulting and related
      services to a company controlled by a shareholder of the company for the
      period from March 23, 1999 to August 6, 1999. This amount has been
      included in general and administrative expenses.



                                                                             (4)

6     INCOME TAXES

      The company is subject to Canadian federal taxes, and Ontario and British
      Columbia provincial taxes in Canada.

      At August 6, 1999, the company had net operating loss carryforwards of
      approximately $450,000 available to reduce future taxable income. These
      losses expire in 2006. The potential benefits relating to these losses
      have not been recognized in the financial statements. Net deferred tax
      assets are composed of the following:

      Based on a number of factors, including the lack of a history of profits,
      management believes that there is sufficient uncertainty regarding the
      realization of deferred tax assets such that a full valuation allowance
      has been provided.

      The income tax provision for the period ended August 6, 1999 differs from
      the amount obtained by applying the statutory Canadian federal and
      provincial income tax rate to loss before income taxes as follows:

7     CAPITAL STOCK

      Authorized capital consists of 30,000,000 common shares without par value
      of which 9,000,001 shares were issued and outstanding as at August 6,
      1999.

      STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

      For the period ended August 6, 1999, a significant shareholder transferred
      1,940,625 common shares to certain key executives of the company for $nil
      cash consideration. These common shares were subsequently exchanged for
      690,000 shares of SUMmedia.com Inc. as part of the share exchange
      transaction described in note 1. Management estimated the fair value of
      these shares at the time of issuance to be $1.33 per share after taking
      into account the share exchange ratio for the transaction. As such, the
      company recorded $2,581,031 of stock based compensation expense in the
      period.

     (s) the Company has not experienced nor is it aware of any occurrence or
         event which has had, or might reasonably be expected to have, a
         materially adverse affect on its business or the results of its
         operations;

     (t) neither the Vendors nor any officer, director, employee or shareholder
         of the Company is now indebted or under obligation to the Company on
         any account whatsoever; and the Company is not indebted or under
         obligation to the Vendors or any officer, director, employee or
         shareholder of the Company.

     (u) this Agreement once duly executed and delivered by the Vendors and the
         Company will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
         Vendors and the Company; enforceable against the Vendors and the
         Company in accordance with its terms;

5.   The Vendors hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to the
     Purchaser as follows that:

     (a) the Vendors have the capacity to protect their own interests in
         connection with the acquisition of the common Shares of the Purchaser
         and are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in
         the Purchaser by reason of their business and financial knowledge and
         experience;

     (b) the Vendors are acquiring the shares of common stock of the Purchaser
         for investment for their own account, not as a nominee or agent, and
         not with the view to, or for resale in connection with, any
         distribution thereof. The Vendors understand that the shares of common
         stock of the Purchaser have not been, and will not be, registered under
         the US SECURITIES ACT 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), by
         reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the
         Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among other
         things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy
         of the Vendors' representations as expressed herein;


                                      -3-
<PAGE>   4

     (c) each Vendor acknowledges that the shares of common stock of the
         Purchaser must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered
         under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration
         is available. Each Vendor is aware of the restrictions and limitations
         on resale of the shares of common stock of the Purchaser into the
         United States or to a US Person pursuant to the provisions of
         Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. In addition, each
         Vendor is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated under the
         Securities Act ("Rule 144") which permit limited resales in the US of
         shares purchased in a private placement subject to the satisfaction of
         certain conditions, including, among other things, the existence of a
         public market for the shares of common stock of the Purchaser, the
         availability of certain current public information about the Purchaser,
         the resale occurring not less than one year after a party has purchased
         and paid for the security to be sold, the sale being effected through a
         "broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with a "market
         maker" and the number of shares being sold during any three-month
         period not exceeding specified limitations;

     (d) each of the Vendors has had an opportunity to discuss the Purchaser's
         business, management and financial affairs with the Company's
         management and has also had an opportunity to ask questions of the
         Purchaser's officers, which questions were answered to the Vendors'
         satisfaction. Each Vendor has been furnished with or has had access to
         such information as a sophisticated investor would customarily require
         to evaluate the merits and risks of the proposed investment together
         with such additional information as is necessary to verify the accuracy
         of the information supplied. The Vendors represent and acknowledge that
         they have been solely responsible for their own due-diligence
         investigation of the Purchaser and its management and business, for its
         own analysis of the merits and risks of this investment, and for its
         own analysis of the terms of the investment, and that in taking any
         action or performing any role relative to the proposed investment, it
         has acted solely in its own interest, and that neither it nor any of
         its agents or employees has acted as an agent, employee, partner or
         fiduciary of any other person, or as an agent of the Purchaser, or as
         an issuer, underwriter, broker, dealer or investment advisor relative
         to this investment;

     (e) each of the Vendors understands that the Purchaser has no operating
         history, and that investment in the Purchaser involves substantial
         risks. The Vendors further understand that the acquisition of the
         shares of common stock of the Purchaser will be a highly speculative
         investment. Each of the Vendors is able, without impairing his
         financial condition, to hold the shares of common stock of the
         Purchaser for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a complete
         loss of his investment;

     (f) each of the Vendors agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser
         and its officers, directors and agents for any costs, liabilities or
         losses caused by any misstatement of material fact by such Vendor with
         respect to the representations and warranties contained in this Section
         or any other written information provided to the Purchaser by such
         Vendor in connection with the investment contemplated by this
         Agreement; and

     (g) each Vendor represents and warrants to the Purchaser that he is not a
         US Person as defined in Regulation S as promulgated under the
         Securities Act and that the buy order for the common shares of the
         Purchaser originated by each Vendor outside of the US.

         of the Company and physical verification of the inventory of the

         Shares into the name of the Purchaser provided that all terms and
         conditions to be observed and performed by the Purchaser at the Time of

     inquiry that:

     (a) the Purchaser was incorporated on December 7, 1990 under the laws of
         the State of Delaware as Pursuit Ventures Corporation. Under a Plan and
         Agreement of Merger, effective August 21, 1998, the Purchaser merged
         with a Colorado corporation. The Colorado corporation was incorporated
         on March 20, 1997, under the name Remington Assets Limited, and,
         effective August 11, 1998, changed its name to Pursuit Ventures
         Corporation. Effective with the terms of the Agreement of Merger,
         Pursuit Ventures Corporation, Colorado, became the surviving company.
         The Purchaser filed for a name change with the Colorado Secretary of
         State to Reliance Resources Inc., which became effective September 8,
         1998;

     (b) the Purchaser is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good
         standing under the laws of the State of Colorado;

     (c) the Purchaser is now and as of the Closing Date will be traded on the

     (f) no proceedings have been taken or authorized by the purchaser, or to

         Purchaser or with respect to any amalgamation, merger, consolidation,
         arrangement or reorganization relating to the Purchaser;

         shares of common stock with a par value of US $0.001 per share, of

         State of Colorado received the amendment of the Purchaser's Articles of
         Incorporation, under which its authorized capital stock is now
         65,500,000 shares of common stock with a par value of US $0.01 per
         share. Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 11, 1999,
         between Caribbean Avionics Ltd. et al, the Purchaser and Patrick C.
         Brooks (a copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule "C"), on June
         16, 1999, Patrick C. Brooks cancelled and returned to the Purchaser
         6,210,000 post-split shares of common stock. The Purchaser's issued and
         outstanding post-split shares of common stock, on the Closing Date,

SHARE CERTIFICATE LEGENDS

13.  It is understood that the certificates evidencing the Purchaser's shares of
     common stock may bear one or more legends in substantially the following
     forms, as well as any other legend required by the laws of any applicable
     jurisdiction:

         THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
         1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR
         HYPOTHECATED IN THE U.S. OR TO US PERSONS IN THE ABSENCE OF A
         REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES UNDER
         SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH
         REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED. HEDGING TRANSACTIONS FOR SUCH SECURITIES
         MAY NOT BE MADE UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH SUCH ACT.

         THE SHARES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTION ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND

         PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM.

     The Purchaser need not record a transfer of the shares, unless the
     conditions specified in any applicable legends are satisfied. The Purchaser
     may also instruct its transfer agent not to record the transfer of any of
     the shares unless the conditions specified in the applicable legends are
     satisfied.

14.  The legend relating to the Securities Act endorsed on a stock certificate
     pursuant to this Agreement and the stop transfer instructions with respect
     to the shares represented by such certificate shall be removed and the
     Purchaser shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of
     such shares if such shares are registered under the Securities Act and a
     prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act is
     available or if such holder provides to the Purchaser an opinion of counsel
     reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, or a no-action letter or
     interpretive opinion of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission
     (the "SEC") to the effect that a public sale, transfer or assignment of
     shares may be made without registration and without compliance with any
     restriction such as Rule 144.

                 AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
                                       OF
                            RELIANCE RESOURCES, INC.,
                             a Colorado corporation

         The undersigned, constituting all members of the corporation's board of
directors, and acting pursuant to C.R.S. Section 7-110-107(2), hereby amend and
restate the corporation's Articles of incorporation, declaring these Amended and
Restated Articles of Incorporation effective as of the date of filing with the
Colorado Secretary of State. These Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation were adopted by the corporation's shareholders, the votes cast
approving adoption by each voting group entitled to vote separately on the
question sufficient for approval by each such voting group.

                                    ARTICLE I
                                      Name

         The name of the Corporation is RELIANCE RESOURCES, INC.

                                   ARTICLE II
                               Purposes and Power

         The Corporation shall have and may exercise all of the rights, powers
and privileges now or hereafter conferred upon corporations organized under the
laws of the State of Colorado, and shall have and may exercise all powers
necessary or convenient to effect any of the purposes for which the Corporation
has been organized.

                                   ARTICLE III
                                Capital Structure

         3.1. Aggregate Shares. Classes and Series. The aggregate number of
shares of capital stock which the Corporation shall have the authority to issue
is sixty-five million five hundred thousand (65,500,000) shares of stock
designated "Common Stock", par value $0.01, and one- million (1,000,000) shares
of stock designated "Preferred Stock", par value $0.01.

         The increase in the authorized amount of Common Stock from fifty
million to sixty-five million, five hundred thousand (65,500,000) shares is
accomplished by first converting each share issued and outstanding as of the
effective date of these Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, which
shares number five hundred thousand (500,000), into thirty-two (32) shares of
Common Stock (1:32), thereby increasing the total number of authorized shares to
sixty-five million, five hundred thousand (65,500,000), with the number issued
and outstanding as of the effective date equal to sixteen million (16,000,000).

         All shares of any one series shall be alike in every particular. In
establishing a series, the Board of Directors shall give to it a distinctive
designation so as to distinguish it from the shares of all other series and-
classes, shall fix the number of shares in such series, and as to Preferred



<PAGE>   2




Stock fix the preferences, rights and restrictions thereof. Shares of Common
Stock shall, in any case, have unlimited voting rights and unfettered rights to
receive the net assets of the Corporation upon dissolution, regardless of series
designations, which rights may nonetheless be shared with other classes of
stock. All series of Preferred Stock shall be alike except that there may be
variations, as determined by the Board of Directors, as to: (1), right of
dividend; (2), terms, conditions, and price of redemption; (3), amounts payable
upon either voluntary and/or involuntary liquidation, (4), sinking fund
provisions, if any, for the call or redemption of the shares; (5), terms and
conditions of conversion, if any, and (6), voting rights consistent with
Colorado law. Before issuing any shares of a class or series, the preferences,
limitations and relative rights of which are determined by the Board of
Directors, the Corporation shall deliver to the Colorado Secretary of State
appropriate Articles of Amendment, as required by law.

         3.2 Consideration for Shares. Each share of stock, when issued, shall
be My paid and nonassessable. The shares of the Corporation shall be issued for
such consideration expressed in dollars as shall be fixed from time to time by
the Board of Directors of the Corporation. The consideration for the issuance of
shares may be paid, in whole or in park in money, in other property, tangible or
intangible, or in labor or services actually performed for the Corporation. The
promise of future services shall not constitute payment or part payment for
shares of the Corporation, and neither the promissory note of a subscriber or
direct purchaser of shares from the Corporation, nor the unsecured or
nonnegotiable promissory note of any other person shall constitute payment or
part payment for shares of the Corporation. The judgment of the Board of
Directors as to the value of any property or services received shall, in the
absence of fraud or bad faith, be conclusive upon all persons.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                 Voting of Share

standing in his or her name on the books of the Corporation and entitled to
vote, except in the election of directors he or she shall have the right to vote
such number of shares for as many persons as there are directors to be elected.
Cumulative voting shall not be allowed in the election of directors or for any
other purpose.

                                    ARTICLE V
                                Preemptive Rights

         No holder of shares of the Corporation of any class shall have any
preemptive or preferential right in or preemptive or preferential right to
subscribe to or for or acquire any new or additional shares, or any subsequent
issue of shares, or any unissued or treasury shares of the Corporation, whether
now or hereafter authorized, or any securities convertible into or carrying a
right to subscribe to or for or acquire any such shares, whether now or
hereafter authorized.

         2.06 Closing of Transfer Books or Fixing of Record Date. For the
purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any
meeting of shareholders or any adjournment thereof, or shareholders entitled to
receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination of
shareholders for any other purpose, the Board of Directors of the corporation
may provide that the share transfer books shall be closed for a stated period
but not to exceed, in any case, fifty days. If the share transfer books shall be
closed for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to
vote at a meeting of shareholders, such books shall be closed for at least ten
days immediately preceding such meeting. In lieu of closing the share transfer
books, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for
any such determination of shareholders, such date in any case to be not more
than fifty days and, in case of a meeting of shareholders, not less than ten
days prior to the date on which the particular action, requiring such
determination of shareholders, is to be taken. If the share transfer books are
not closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of shareholders
entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders, or shareholders
entitled to receive payment of a dividend, the date on which notice of the
meeting is mailed or the date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors
declaring such dividend is adopted, as the case may be, shall be the record date
for such determination of shareholders. When a determination of shareholders
entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in
this section, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof.

         2.07 Voting. If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority
of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject
matter shall be the act of the shareholders, unless a vote of a greater
proportion or number of votes by classes is otherwise required by statute, or by
the Articles of Incorporation, or by these Bylaws. At all meetings of
shareholders, a shareholder may vote in person or by proxy executed in writing
by the shareholder or by his duly authorized attorney in fact. Such proxy shall
be filed with the Secretary of the corporation before or at the time of the
meeting. No proxy shall be valid after eleven (11) months from the date of its
execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy.

to who are the shareholders entitled to examine the record or transfer books or
to vote at any meeting of shareholders.

         2.08 Manner of Acting. If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of
the majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on
the subject matter shall be the act of the shareholders, unless the vote of a
greater proportion or number or voting by classes is otherwise required by
statute or by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws.

         2.09 Voting of Shares. Unless otherwise provided by these Bylaws or
Articles of Incorporation, each outstanding share entitled to vote shall be

shareholders, and each fractional share shall be entitled to a corresponding
fractional vote on each such matter.

         2.10 Voting of Shares by Certain Shareholder. Shares standing in the
name of another corporation may be voted by such officer, agent or proxy as the
Bylaws of such corporation may prescribe, or, in the absence of such provision,
as the Board of Directors of such other corporation may determine.

         Shares standing in the name of a deceased person, a minor ward or an
incompetent person, may be voted by an administrator, executor, Court appointed
guardian or conservator, either in person or by proxy without a transfer of such
shares into the name of such administrator, executor, Court appointed guardian
or conservator. Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by him,
either in person or by proxy, but no trustee shall be entitled to vote shares
held by him without a transfer of such shares into his name.

         Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by such receiver
and shares held by or under the control of a receiver may be voted by such
receiver without the transfer thereof into the trustee name if authority so to
do be contained in an appropriate order of the Court by which such receiver was
appointed.

         A shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote such
shares until the shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and
thereafter the pledgee shall be entitled to vote the shares so transferred.

         3.02 Number of Directors, Tenure and Qualification. The number of
directors of the corporation shall be fixed from time to time by a resolution of
the Board of Directors but shall not be less than one (1), or that number
otherwise required by law. Each director shall hold office until his successor
shall have been elected and qualified. Directors need not be residents of the
State of Colorado or shareholders of the corporation.

         The Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes as nearly
equal in number as possible. The initial terms of directors elected in 1997
shall expire as of the annual meeting of shareholders for the years indicated
below:

                           Class I Directors ..........................2000
                           Class II Directors..........................1999

<PAGE>   5





         Upon expiration of the initial term specified for each class of
directors, their successors shall be elected for a three-year term. If the
number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned
among the classes so as to maintain or attain, if possible, the equality of the
number of directors in each class, but in no case will a decrease in the number
of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director. If an equality in
number is not possible, the increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the
classes in such a way that the difference in the number of directors in any
class shall not exceed one.

         3.03 Chairman of the Board. There shall be a Chairman of the Board, who
has been elected from among the directors. He shall preside at all meetings of
the stockholders and of the Board of Directors. He shall have such other powers
and duties as may be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

         3.04 Regular Meetings. Regular meeting of the Board of Directors shall
be held without other notice than this Bylaw immediately after, and at the same

         3.06 Notice. Written notice of any special meeting of directors shall
be given as follows: (a) by mail to each director at his business address at
least three (3) days prior to the meeting, or (b) by personal delivery or
telegram at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the meeting to the business
address of each director, if any, but in the event such notice is given on
Saturday, Sunday or a holiday, personal delivery to the residence address of
each director. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when
deposited in the United States mail, so addressed, with postage thereon
pre-paid. If notice be given by telegram, such notice shall be deemed to be
delivered when the telegram is delivered to the telegraph company. Any director
may waive notice of any meeting. The attendance of a director at any meeting
shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a director
attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any
business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the
business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting
of the Board of Directors need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of
such meeting.

         3.07 Quorum. A majority of the number of directors fixed by or pursuant
to Section 3.02 of this Article III shall constitute a quorum for the
transaction of business at any meeting of the Board of Directors, but if less
than such majority is present at a meeting, a majority of the directors present
may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice.

         3.08 Participation by Electronic Means. Any member of the Board of
Directors or any committee designated by such board may participate in a meeting
of the Board of Directors or a committee by means of telephone conference or
similar communications equipment by which all persons participating in a meeting
can hear each other at the same time. Such participation shall constitute the
presence of the person at the meeting.

entitled to vote with respect to the subject matter thereof.

         3.11 Vacancies. Any vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors may be

directors may be filled by election by the Board of Directors for a term of
office continuing only until the next election by the shareholders.

         3.12 Resignation. Any director of the corporation may resign at any

notice thereof or at such later time as shall be specified in such notice; and,
unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not
be necessary to make it effective. When one or more directors shall resign from

committee, any of which shall have such authority in the management of the
corporation as the Board of Directors shall designate and as shall be prescribed
by the Colorado Corporation Code.

         3.15 Compensation. By resolution of the Board of Directors and
irrespective of any personal interest of any of the members, each director may
be paid his expenses, if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board of
Directors, and may be paid a stated salary as director or a fixed sum for
attendance of each meeting of the Board of Directors or both. No such payment
shall preclude any director from serving the corporation in any other capacity
and receiving any other compensation therefor.

         3.16 Presumption of Assent. A director of the corporation who is
present at a meeting of the Board of Directors at which action on any corporate
matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless
his dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless he shall
file his written dissent to such action with the person acting as the Secretary
of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by
registered mail to the Secretary of the corporation immediately after the
adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to a director
who voted in favor of such action.

given at such time in advance of the meeting as circumstances permit in the
judgment of the person calling the meeting.

         (b) At any such meeting of the Board of Directors, a quorum shall
consist of the number of directors in attendance at such meeting.

         (c) The Board of Directors, either before or during any such emergency,
may, effective in the emergency, change the principal office or designate
several alternative principal offices or regional offices, or authorize the
officers so to do.

         (d) The Board of Directors, either before or during any such emergency,
may provide, and from time to time modify, lines of succession in the event that
during such an emergency any or all officers or agents of the corporation shall
for any reason be rendered incapable of discharging their duties.

         (e) No officer, director or employee acting in accordance with these
Emergency Bylaws shall be liable except for willful misconduct.

         (f) These Emergency Bylaws shall be subject to repeal or change by
further action of the Board of Directors or by action of the shareholders, but
no such repeal or change shall modify the

                                      -11-

provisions of the next preceding paragraph with regard to action taken prior to
the time of such repeal or change any amendment of these Emergency Bylaws may

[ORACLE LOGO]                           SOFTWARE LICENSE AND SERVICES AGREEMENT


                              TERMS AND CONDITIONS

This Software License and Services Agreement (the "Agreement") is between Oracle
Corporation Canada Inc. with its principal place of business at 110 Matheson
Blvd., West, Suite 100, Mississauga, Ontario, L5R 3P4 ("Oracle") and the
customer identified on the signature page of this Agreement ("Customer"). The
terms of this Agreement shall apply to each Program license granted and to all
Services provided by Oracle under this Agreement and any Order Form.

I      DEFINITIONS

1.1    "APPLICATION SPECIFIC PROGRAM" shall mean one or more of the Programs
       with the following restrictions:

       (a)    limited for use solely for the purpose of executing the Customer
              application identified in an Order Form (the "Application");
       (b)    may not be used to create new tables or alter tables except to the
              extent necessary to implement the Application and may not allow
              use of the Program's "Create" or "Alter" commands or any other
              command to create or alter tables outside the scope of that which
              is necessary for the operation of the Application; and
       (c)    may not be used to build or modify reports or with other
              applications.

1.2    "CASUAL USER" shall mean an individual authorized by the Customer to only
       run queries or reports against Oracle Application Programs. Casual Users
       are licensed to use any of the Oracle Applications and Extensions to
       Oracle Applications for which Customer has acquired Named User licenses."

1.3    "COMMENCEMENT DATE" shall mean the date on which the Programs are
       delivered by Oracle to Customer or, if no delivery is necessary, the
       Effective Date set forth on the relevant Order Form.

1.4    "CONCURRENT DEVICES" shall mean the maximum number of input devices
       accessing the Programs at any given point in time. If multiplexing
       software or hardware (e.g. a TP monitor, webserver product) is used, this
       number must be measured at the multiplexing front-end.

1.5    "DESIGNATED SYSTEM" shall mean the computer hardware and operating system
       designated on the relevant Order Form.

1.6    "DOCUMENTATION" shall mean the user guides and manuals for installation
       and use of the Program software. Documentation is provided in CD-ROM or
       bound form, whichever is generally available.

1.7    "FULL-USE PROGRAMS" shall mean unaltered versions of the Programs with
       all functions intact.

1.8    "LIMITED PRODUCTION PROGRAM" shall mean a Program which does not appear
       on the Price List or which is designated as Limited Production by Oracle.

1.9    "ORDER FORM" shall mean the document in hard copy or electronic form by
       which Customer orders Program licenses and/or Services and which is
       agreed to by the parties. The Order Form shall reference the Effective
       Date of this Agreement.

1.10   "PRICE LIST" shall mean Oracle's applicable standard commercial fee
       schedule that is in effect when a Program license or any other product or
       service is ordered by Customer.

1.11   "PROGRAM" shall mean the software in object code form distributed by
       Oracle for which Customer is granted a license pursuant to this
       Agreement, the media, the Documentation and Updates.

1.12   "SERVICES" shall mean Technical Support, training, consulting or other
       services provided by Oracle to Customer under this Agreement.

1.13   "SUPPORTED PROGRAM LICENSE" shall mean a Program license for which
       Customer has ordered Technical Support for the relevant time period.

1.14   "TECHNICAL SUPPORT" shall mean Program support provided under Oracle's
       policies in effect on the date Technical Support is ordered.

1.15   "UPDATE" shall mean a subsequent release of the Program which is
       generally made available for Supported Program Licenses at no additional
       charge other than media and handling charges. Update shall not include
       any release, option or future product which Oracle licenses separately.

1.16   "USER," unless otherwise specified on the Order Form, shall mean a person
       authorized by Customer to use specified Programs, regardless of whether
       the individual is actively using the Programs at any given time.

II.    PROGRAM LICENSE

2.1.   RIGHTS GRANTED
       A.     Oracle grants to Customer a nonexclusive license to use the
              Programs Customer obtains under this Agreement, as of the
              Commencement Date as follows:

              i.     to use the Programs solely for Customer's operations on the
                     Designated System or on a backup system if the Designated
                     System is inoperative, consistent with the use and/or User
                     limitations specified or referenced in this Agreement, an
                     Order Form and the Documentation. Customer may not
                     re-license, rent or lease the Programs or use the Programs
                     for third-party training, commercial time-sharing, rental
                     or service bureau use;

              ii.    to use the Documentation in support of Customer's
                     authorized use of the Programs;

              iii.   to copy the Programs for archival or backup purposes and to
                     make a sufficient number of copies for the User limitations
                     specified in the Order Form. All titles, trademarks,
                     copyright and restricted rights notices shall be reproduced
                     in such copies. All archival and backup copies of the
                     Programs are subject to the terms of this Agreement;

              iv.    to modify the Programs and combine them with other software
                     products; and

              v.     to allow third parties to use the Programs for Customer's
                     operations so long as Customer


                                                                     Page 2 of 6

<PAGE>   3
[ORACLE LOGO]                           SOFTWARE LICENSE AND SERVICES AGREEMENT

                     ensures that use of the Programs is in accordance with the
                     terms of this Agreement.

              Customer shall not copy or use the Programs except as otherwise
              specified in this Agreement or an Order Form.

              In the event that the number of copies of the Programs shipped to
              Customer is less than the number actually licensed pursuant to
              this Agreement, then Customer shall have the right to make copies
              of the Programs up to the number licensed hereunder. In the event
              Customer does not, for any reason whatsoever, make and/or use the
              number of copies actually licensed pursuant to this Agreement, it
              shall, nevertheless, pay to Oracle all license fees due hereunder.

              In the event Customer specifies that no shipment of media is
              required for any Program, then Customer shall have been deemed to
              have a master copy of such Program and no additional shipment is
              required.

              Customer shall have no right to use any other Oracle software
              program that may be delivered with the Programs.

       B.     Customer agrees not to cause or permit the reverse engineering,
              disassembly or decompilation of the Programs, except to the extent
              required to obtain interoperability with other independently
              created software or as specified by law.

       C.     Oracle shall retain all title, copyright and other proprietary
              rights in the Programs. Customer does not acquire any rights,
              express or implied, in the Programs, other than those specified in
              this Agreement.

2.2.   NETWORK LICENSE
       Customer may order a Network license for Programs using a
       Network Order Form which shall have the following additional rights
       granted:

       A.     To use the Programs on up to five (5) Server operating systems. If
              the number of Server operating systems specified in a Network
              Order Form is less than five (5), Customer may, by written notice
              to Oracle during the one-year period commencing on the effective
              date of the Network Order Form, request Oracle to deliver, (at a
              charge of One Thousand Dollars ($1000) per Server operating system
              to cover media, documentation, shipping and handling charges), the
              corresponding software media and Documentation for the Network
              Program Set, for such additional Server operating system(s), up to
              a maximum of five (5), added by Customer to the Network; provided
              that: i) the Programs licensed hereunder are available in
              production release status on the additional Server operating
              system(s) at the time Customer elects to add such additional
              Server operating system(s); and ii) Customer has continuously
              maintained Technical Support for the Network Program Set on the
              Server operating systems being used prior to such written notice.

       B.     The addition of new Server operating systems beyond the five (5)
              provided for in this Agreement shall, in addition to the
              provisions set out in 2.2A above, be subject to payment by
              Customer to Oracle of ten percent (10%) of the net license fees
              for the Network Program Set as set forth in a Price Addendum in
              effect, or, in the absence of a valid Price Addendum, under
              Oracle's standard Price List in effect at the time of such
              addition. Payment shall be due and payable on the date Customer
              exercises this option.

       C.     Despite anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
              Customer shall not be required to report to Oracle which Programs
              included in the Network Program Set are installed on which Server
              or how many Servers are included in the Network. Customer may
              freely transfer the Programs between Servers in the Network at no
              additional charge; however substitutions of Server operating
              systems licensed under this Agreement may be made (at a charge of
              One Thousand Dollars ($1000) per Server operating system to cover
              media, documentation, shipping and handling charges) for a period
              of three (3) years from the effective date of the applicable
              Network Order Form provided that: i) Customer has maintained
              continuous Technical Support for the Programs, ii) notifies Oracle
              in writing of any such change in Server operating systems; and
              iii) the total number of Server operating systems on which the
              Network Program Set is run does not exceed five (5). Thereafter
              such changes may require the payment of additional fees in
              accordance with Oracle's standard license transfer policies then
              in effect.

       D.     Notwithstanding the foregoing, Oracle makes no representation or
              guarantee with respect to the future availability of the Programs
              on any operating system and Oracle shall not be liable for any
              expenditures incurred, or loss suffered, as a result of Customer
              relying on the future delivery by Oracle of the Programs on any
              operating system.

       All fees paid pursuant to this Section 2.2 are non-cancellable and the
       sum paid non-refundable.

2.3.   TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT
       A.     Customer may transfer a Program license within its organization
              upon notice to Oracle. Transfers are subject to the terms and fees
              specified in Oracle's transfer policy in effect at the time of the
              transfer.

       B.     Program licenses are personal to Customer. Customer may not assign
              this Agreement or a Program license, or any interest in either, to
              a legal entity separate from Customer except as part of a merger
              or other sale of Customer's business. Such assignment requires the
              prior written consent or Oracle, which shall not be unreasonably
              withheld.

2.4.   VERIFICATION
       At Oracle's written request, not more frequently than annually, Customer
       shall furnish Oracle with a signed certification verifying that the
       Programs are being used pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

       Oracle may, at its expense, audit Customer's use of the Programs. Any
       such audit shall be conducted during regular business hours at Customer's
       facilities and shall not unreasonably interfere with Customer's business
       activities. Customer agrees to co-operate in the audit, including
       providing access to servers, employees and information reasonably
       requested by Oracle. If an audit reveals that Customer has underpaid fees
       to Oracle, Customer shall be invoiced for such underpaid fees based on
       the Price List in effect at the time the audit is completed. Audits shall
       be conducted no more than once annually.

III.   SERVICES

3.1.   TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICES


                                                                     Page 3 of 6

<PAGE>   4

[ORACLE LOGO]                          SOFTWARE LICENSE AND SERVICES AGREEMENT


       Technical Support ordered by Customer will be provided under Oracle's
       Technical Support policies in effect on the date Technical Support is
       ordered, subject to the payment by Customer of the applicable fees.

3.2.   CONSULTING, TRAINING AND OTHER SERVICES
       A.     PROVISION OF SERVICES Oracle will provide consulting, training and
              other services agreed to by the parties under the terms of this
              Agreement. Consulting services shall be billed on a time and
              materials basis unless the parties expressly agree otherwise in
              writing.

       B.     DIRECTION OF SERVICES Unless otherwise specifically agreed in
              writing, Customer shall be responsible for the direction of the
              services.

       C.     NON-SOLICITATION
              During the term of an Oracle employee's work or assignment in
              connection with Services, and for a period of six (6) months after
              such work or assignment terminates, Customer agrees not to
              directly or indirectly solicit, recruit for employment or offer
              sub-contracting opportunities to or knowingly employ any such
              employee, without the prior written consent of Oracle. In the
              event of a breach of this provision by Customer, Customer shall
              pay Oracle as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount
              equal to twelve (12) months salary for the employee engaged by the
              Customer.

       D.     CHANGES Oracle shall not be in breach of any warranties provided
              for in this Agreement if any of the relevant software, hardware,
              products, goals or related system environment has been changed by
              Customer or any other person without Oracle's specific consent in
              writing. Where such unauthorized changes impede or make more
              costly the provision of Technical Support or consulting services
              hereunder, Oracle shall take such corrective action only if
              Customer agrees to bear such additional cost, at Oracle's then
              prevailing rates.

       E.     COOPERATION Customer acknowledges that the timely provision of and
              access to office accommodations, facilities, equipment,
              assistance, cooperation, complete and accurate information and
              data from its officers, agents, and employees, and suitably
              configured computer products are essential to performance of any
              Services and that Oracle's ability to complete any Services is
              dependent upon same. If the relevant requirement(s), project
              plan(s), schedule, scope, specification(s), design(s), software,
              hardware product(s), or related system environment(s) or
              architecture are changed by Customer or any other person, Oracle
              shall not be responsible for the change unless Customer and Oracle
              specifically consent to the change, scheduling, and additional
              charges, if any, in writing.

3.3.   INCIDENTAL EXPENSES
       For any on-site Services requested by Customer, Customer shall reimburse
       Oracle for actual, reasonable travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

IV.    TERM AND TERMINATION

4.1.   TERM
       If not otherwise specified on the Order Form, each Program license shall
       remain in effect perpetually unless the license or this Agreement is
       terminated as provided in Section 4.2 or 4.3.

4.2.   TERMINATION BY CUSTOMER
       Customer may terminate any Program license at any time; however,
       termination shall not relieve Customer's obligations specified in Section
       4.4.

4.3.   TERMINATION BY ORACLE
       Oracle may terminate this Agreement or any Program license upon written
       notice if Customer breaches this Agreement and fails to correct such
       breach within 30 days following written notice thereof.

4.4.   EFFECT OF TERMINATION
       Termination of this Agreement or any license shall not limit either party
       from pursuing other remedies available to it, including injunctive
       relief, nor shall such termination relieve Customer's obligation to pay
       all fees that have accrued or are otherwise owed by Customer under any
       Order Form or other similar ordering document under this Agreement. The
       parties' rights and obligations under Sections 2.1B, 2.1C, 2.2B and 2.3,
       and Articles IV, V, VI and VII shall survive termination of this
       Agreement.

4.5.   HANDLING OF PROGRAMS UPON TERMINATION.
       If a license granted under this Agreement terminates, Customer shall: (a)
       cease using the applicable Programs; and (b) certify to Oracle within one
       month after termination that Customer has destroyed or has returned to
       Oracle the Programs and all copies. This requirement applies to copies in
       all forms, partial and complete, in all types of media and computer
       memory, and whether or not modified or merged into other materials.

V.     INDEMNITY, WARRANTIES, REMEDIES

5.1.   INFRINGEMENT INDEMNITY
       Oracle will defend and indemnify Customer against a claim that the
       Programs infringe a copyright or patent, provided that: (a) Customer
       notifies Oracle in writing within 30 days of the claim; (b) Oracle has
       sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations; and
       (c) Customer provides Oracle with the assistance, information and
       authority necessary to perform Oracle's obligations under this Section.
       Reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Customer in providing such
       assistance will be reimbursed by Oracle. Oracle shall have no liability
       for any claim of infringement based on use of a superseded or an altered
       release of a Program if the infringement would have been avoided by the
       use of a current unaltered release of the Program which Oracle provides
       to Customer.

       In the event a Program is held or is believed by Oracle to infringe,
       Oracle shall have the option, at its expense, to; (a) modify the Program
       to be non-infringing; or (b) obtain for Customer a license to continue
       using the Program. If it is not commercially reasonable to perform either
       of the above options, then Oracle may terminate the license for the
       infringing Program and refund the license fees paid for the Program. This
       Section 5.1 states Oracle's entire liability and Customer's exclusive
       remedy for infringement.


                                                                     Page 4 of 6

<PAGE>   5

[ORACLE LOGO]                           SOFTWARE LICENSE AND SERVICES AGREEMENT


5.2.   WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS

A.     PROGRAM WARRANTY
       Oracle warrants for a period of one year from the Commencement Date that
       each unmodified Program will perform the functions described in the
       Documentation.

       Oracle warrants that the current production version of the Programs will,
       to the extent applicable as set forth in the Documentation, fully comply
       with the following millennium compliance statement when configured and
       used according to the documented instructions. The definition of
       compliance is the ability to:
         (a)      correctly handle date information before, during and after 1
                  January 2000 accepting date input, providing date output and
                  performing calculation on dates or portions of dates;
         (b)      function according to the Documentation, during and after 1
                  January 2000 without changes in operation resulting from the
                  advent of the new century assuming correct configuration;
         (c)      where appropriate, respond to two digit date input in a way
                  that resolves the ambiguity as to century in a disclosed,
                  defined and predetermined manner;
         (d)      store and provide output of date information in ways that are
                  unambiguous as to century; and
         (e)      manage the leap year occurring in the year 2000, following the
                  quad-centennial rule.

       Oracle shall have no liability for any alleged or actual breach of the
       "year 2000" warranty provided in the preceding sentence if such claim is
       based upon a superseded or altered release of Programs and such claim
       would have been avoided by the use of a current unaltered release of
       Programs which Oracle provides to Customer. Any breach of this warranty
       is subject to the exclusive remedies as set forth in Section 5.3 of the
       Agreement

B.     MEDIA WARRANTY
       Oracle warrants the tapes, diskettes or other media to be free of defects
       in materials and workmanship under normal use for 90 days from the
       Commencement Date.

C.     SERVICES WARRANTY
       Oracle warrants that Services will be performed in accordance with
       generally accepted industry standards. This warranty shall be valid for
       90 days from the performance of such Services.

D.     DISCLAIMERS
       THE WARRANTIES ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
       WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND
       CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
       ORACLE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PROGRAMS WILL MEET CUSTOMER'S
       REQUIREMENTS, THAT THE PROGRAMS WILL OPERATE IN THE COMBINATIONS WHICH
       CUSTOMER MAY SELECT FOR USE, THAT THE OPERATION OF THE PROGRAMS WILL BE
       UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ALL PROGRAM ERRORS WILL BE
       CORRECTED. LIMITED PRODUCTION PROGRAMS, PRE-PRODUCTION RELEASES OF
       PROGRAMS, AND COMPUTER-BASED TRAINING PRODUCTS ARE DISTRIBUTED "AS IS."

5.3.   EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES
       For any breach of the warranties contained in Section 5.2, Customer's
       exclusive remedy, and Oracle's entire liability, shall be:

       A.  FOR PROGRAMS
           The correction of Program errors that cause breach of the warranty
           or, if Oracle is unable to make the Program operate as warranted,
           Customer shall be entitled to terminate the Program license and
           recover the fees paid to Oracle for the Program license.

       B.  FOR MEDIA
           The replacement of defective media returned within 90 days from the
           Commencement Date.

       C.  FOR SERVICES
           The re-performance of the Services or, if Oracle is unable to perform
           the Services as warranted, Customer shall be entitled to recover the
           fees paid to Oracle for the unsatisfactory Services.

VI.    PAYMENT PROVISIONS

6.1.   INVOICING AND PAYMENT
       All fees for Programs and Services provided hereunder shall be due and
       payable 30 days from the date of Oracle's invoice. Any amounts payable by
       Customer hereunder which remain unpaid after the due date shall be
       subject to a late charge equal to 12% per annum, calculated from the due
       date until such amounts are paid. Customer agrees to pay applicable media
       and shipping charges. Customer shall issue a purchase order or
       alternative document acceptable to Oracle, on or before the Effective
       Date of the applicable Order Form.

6.2.   TAXES
       The fees listed in this Agreement do not include taxes; if Oracle is
       required to pay sales, use, goods and services or other taxes based on
       the licenses granted or Services provided pursuant to this Agreement or
       on Customer's use of Programs or Services, then such taxes shall be
       billed to and paid by Customer. This Section shall not apply to taxes
       based on Oracle's income.

VII.   GENERAL TERMS

7.1    NONDISCLOSURE
       By virtue of this Agreement, the parties may have access to information
       that is confidential to one another ("Confidential Information").
       Confidential Information shall be limited to the Programs, the terms and
       pricing contained in this Agreement, and all information clearly
       identified as confidential. A party's Confidential Information shall not
       include information that: (a) is or becomes a part of the public domain
       through no act or omission of the other party; (b) was in the other
       party's lawful possession prior to the disclosure and had not been
       obtained by the other party either directly or indirectly from the
       disclosing party; (c) is lawfully disclosed to the other party by a third
       party without restriction on disclosure; or (d) is independently
       developed by the other party. Customer shall not disclose the results of
       any benchmark tests of the Programs to any third party without Oracle's
       prior written approval. The parties agree to hold each other's
       Confidential Information in confidence during the term of this Agreement
       and for a period of two years after termination of this Agreement. The
       parties agree, unless required by law, not to make each other's
       Confidential Information available in any form to any third party or to
       use each other's Confidential Information for any purpose other than the
       implementation of this Agreement. Each party agrees to take all
       reasonable steps to ensure that Confidential Information is not disclosed
       or distributed by its employees or agents in violation of the terms of
       this Agreement.

7.2    GOVERNING LAW


                                                                     Page 5 of 6
<PAGE>   6

[ORACLE LOGO]                           SOFTWARE LICENSE AND SERVICES AGREEMENT


       This Agreement and all matters arising out of or relating to this
       Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario.

7.3    JURISDICTION
       Any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement shall be
       instituted in a court in Toronto, Ontario. Oracle and Customer agree to
       submit to the jurisdiction of, and agree that venue is proper in, these
       courts in any such legal action or proceeding.

7.4    NOTICE
       All notices, including notices of address change, required to be sent
       hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been received
       on the third business day following mailing by first class mail to the
       first address listed in the relevant Order Form (if to Customer) or to
       the Oracle address on the Order Form (if to Oracle). To expedite order
       processing, Customer agrees that Oracle may treat documents faxed by
       Customer to Oracle as original documents; nevertheless, either party may
       require the other to exchange original signed documents.

7.5    LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
       In no event shall either party be liable for any indirect, incidental,
       special or consequential damages, or damages for loss of profits,
       revenue, data or use, incurred by either party or any third party,
       whether in an action in contract or tort, even if the other party has
       been advised of the possibility of such damages or even if such damages
       were reasonably foreseeable. Oracle's liability for damages hereunder
       shall in no event exceed the amount of fees paid by Customer under the
       relevant Order Form, and if such damages result from Customer's use of
       the Programs or the provision of Services such liability shall be limited
       to fees paid for the relevant Program or Services giving rise to the
       liability. The provisions of this Agreement allocate the risks between
       Oracle and Customer. Oracle's pricing reflects this allocation of risk
       and the limitation of liability specified herein.

7.6    SEVERABILITY
       In the event any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or
       unenforceable, the remaining provisions thereof will remain in full
       force.

7.7    WAIVER
       The waiver by either party of any default or breach of this Agreement
       shall not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent default or
       breach. Except for actions for non-payment or breach of Oracle's
       proprietary rights in the Programs, no action, regardless of form,
       arising out of this Agreement may be brought by either party more than
       one year after the cause of action has arisen.

7.8    EXPORT ADMINISTRATION
       Customer agrees to comply fully with all relevant export laws and
       regulations of Canada and the United States ("Export Laws") to assure
       that neither the Programs nor any direct product thereof are (1)
       exported, directly or indirectly, in violation of Export Laws; or (2) are
       intended to be used for any purposes prohibited by the Export Laws
       including, without limitation, nuclear, chemical or biological weapons
       proliferation.

7.9    RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES
       Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create a partnership,
       joint venture or agency relationship between the parties.

7.10   ENTIRE AGREEMENT
       This Agreement constitutes the complete agreement between the parties and
       supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements or representations,
       written or oral, concerning the subject matter of this Agreement. This
       Agreement may not be modified or amended except in writing signed by a
       duly authorized representative of each party; no other act, document,
       usage or custom shall be deemed to amend or modify this Agreement. It is
       expressly agreed that the terms of this Agreement and any Order Form
       shall supersede the terms contained in any Customer purchase order or
       other ordering document. This Agreement shall also supersede the terms of
       any unsigned or "shrinkwrap" license included in any package, media, or
       electronic version of Oracle-furnished software and any such software
       shall be licensed under the terms of this Agreement, provided that the
       use limitations contained in any unsigned ordering document shall be
       effective for the specified licenses.

7.11   SEPARATION OF LICENSES AND SERVICES
       Any Services acquired by Customer from Oracle are deemed to have been bid
       and acquired separately from any Program licenses granted under this
       Agreement, with Customer having the right to acquire such Services and
       Program licenses without acquiring the other.

         (b) may not be used to create new tables or alter tables except to the
             extent necessary to implement the Application and may not allow use
             of the Program's "Create" or "Alter" commands or any other command
             to create or alter tables outside the scope of that which is
             necessary for the operation of the Application; and

             applications.

1.2    "CASUAL USER" shall mean an individual authorized by the Customer to only

       accessing the Programs at any given point in time. If multiplexing
       software or hardware (e.g. a TP monitor, webserver product) is used, this
       number must be measured at the multiplexing front-end.

1.5    "DESIGNATED SYSTEM" shall mean the computer hardware and operating system
       designated on the relevant Order Form.

1.6    "DOCUMENTATION" shall mean the user guides and manuals for installation

       on the Price List or which is designated as Limited Production by Oracle.

1.9    "ORDER FORM" shall mean the document in hard copy or electronic form by
       which Customer orders Program licenses and/or Services and which is
       agreed to by the parties. The Order Form shall reference the Effective
       Date of this Agreement.

1.10   "PRICE LIST" shall mean Oracle's applicable standard commercial fee
       schedule that is in effect when a Program license or any other product or
       service is ordered by Customer.

II.    PROGRAM LICENSE

2.1.   RIGHTS GRANTED
       A.  Oracle grants to Customer a nonexclusive license to use the Programs
           Customer obtains under this Agreement, as of the Commencement Date as
           follows:

           i.   to use the Programs solely for Customer's operations on the
                Designated System or on a backup system if the Designated System
                is inoperative, consistent with the use and/or User limitations
                specified or referenced in this Agreement, an Order Form and the
                Documentation. Customer may not re-license, rent or lease the
                Programs or use the Programs for third-party training,
                commercial time-sharing, rental or service bureau use;

           ii.  to use the Documentation in support of Customer's authorized use
                of the Programs;

           iii. to copy the Programs for archival or backup purposes and to make
                a sufficient number of copies for the User limitations specified
                in the Order Form. All titles, trademarks, copyright and
                restricted rights notices shall be reproduced in such copies.
                All archival and backup copies of the Programs are subject to
                the terms of this Agreement;

           iv.  to modify the Programs and combine them with other software
                products; and

           v.   to allow third parties to use the Programs for Customer's
                operations so long as Customer ensures that use of the Programs
                is in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.


                                                                     Page 2 of 6

<PAGE>   9

[ORACLE LOGO]                            SOFTWARE LICENSE AND SERVICES AGREEMENT

           Customer shall not copy or use the Programs except as otherwise
           specified in this Agreement or an Order Form.

           In the event that the number of copies of the Programs shipped to
           Customer is less than the number actually licensed pursuant to this
           Agreement, then Customer shall have the right to make copies of the
           Programs up to the number licensed hereunder. In the event Customer
           does not, for any reason whatsoever, make and/or use the number of
           copies actually licensed pursuant to this Agreement, it shall,
           nevertheless, pay to Oracle all license fees due hereunder.

           In the event Customer specifies that no shipment of media is required
           for any Program, then Customer shall have been deemed to have a
           master copy of such Program and no additional shipment is required.

           Customer shall have no right to use any other Oracle software program
           that may be delivered with the Programs.

       B.  Customer agrees not to cause or permit the reverse engineering,
           disassembly or decompilation of the Programs, except to the extent
           required to obtain interoperability with other independently created
           software or as specified by law.

       C.  Oracle shall retain all title, copyright and other proprietary rights
           in the Programs. Customer does not acquire any rights, express or
           implied, in the Programs, other than those specified in this
           Agreement.

2.2.   NETWORK LICENSE
       Customer may order a Network license for Programs using a Network Order
       Form which shall have the following additional rights granted:

       A.  To use the Programs on up to five (5) Server operating systems. If
           the number of Server operating systems specified in a Network Order
           Form is less than five (5), Customer may, by written notice to Oracle
           during the one-year period commencing on the effective date of the
           Network Order Form, request Oracle to deliver, (at a charge of One
           Thousand Dollars ($1000) per Server operating system to cover media,
           documentation, shipping and handling charges), the corresponding
           software media and Documentation for the Network Program Set, for
           such additional Server operating system(s), up to a maximum of five
           (5), added by Customer to the Network; provided that: i) the Programs
           licensed hereunder are available in production release status on the
           additional Server operating system(s) at the time Customer elects to
           add such additional Server operating system(s); and ii) Customer has
           continuously maintained Technical Support for the Network Program Set
           on the Server operating systems being used prior to such written
           notice.

       B.  The addition of new Server operating systems beyond the five (5)
           provided for in this Agreement shall, in addition to the provisions
           set out in 2.2A above, be subject to payment by Customer to Oracle of
           ten percent (10%) of the net license fees for the Network Program Set
           as set forth in a Price Addendum in effect, or, in the absence of a
           valid Price Addendum, under Oracle's standard Price List in effect at
           the time of such addition. Payment shall be due and payable on the
           date Customer exercises this option.

       C.  Despite anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
           Customer shall not be required to report to Oracle which Programs
           included in the Network Program Set are installed on which Server or
           how many Servers are included in the Network. Customer may freely
           transfer the Programs between Servers in the Network at no additional
           charge; however substitutions of Server operating systems licensed
           under this Agreement may be made (at a charge of One Thousand Dollars
           ($1000) per Server operating system to cover media, documentation,
           shipping and handling charges) for a period of three (3) years from
           the effective date of the applicable Network Order Form provided
           that: i) Customer has maintained continuous Technical Support for the
           Programs, ii) notifies Oracle in writing of any such change in Server
           operating systems; and iii) the total number of Server operating
           systems on which the Network Program Set is run does not exceed five
           (5). Thereafter such changes may require the payment of additional
           fees in accordance with Oracle's standard license transfer policies
           then in effect.

       D.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Oracle makes no representation or
           guarantee with respect to the future availability of the Programs on
           any operating system and Oracle shall not be liable for any
           expenditures incurred, or loss suffered, as a result of Customer
           relying on the future delivery by Oracle of the Programs on any
           operating system.

       All fees paid pursuant to this Section 2.2 are non-cancellable and the
       sum paid non-refundable.

2.3.   TRANSFER AND ASSIGNMENT
       A.  Customer may transfer a Program license within its organization upon
           notice to Oracle. Transfers are subject to the terms and fees
           specified in Oracle's transfer policy in effect at the time of the
           transfer.

       B.  Program licenses are personal to Customer. Customer may not assign
           this Agreement or a Program license, or any interest in either, to a
           legal entity separate from Customer except as part of a merger or
           other sale of Customer's business. Such assignment requires the prior
           written consent or Oracle, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

2.4.   VERIFICATION
       At Oracle's written request, not more frequently than annually, Customer
       shall furnish Oracle with a signed certification verifying that the
       Programs are being used pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

       Oracle may, at its expense, audit Customer's use of the Programs. Any
       such audit shall be conducted during regular business hours at Customer's
       facilities and shall not unreasonably interfere with Customer's business
       activities. Customer agrees to co-operate in the audit, including
       providing access to servers, employees and information reasonably
       requested by Oracle. If an audit reveals that Customer has underpaid fees
       to Oracle, Customer shall be invoiced for such underpaid fees based on
       the Price List in effect at the time the audit is completed. Audits shall
       be conducted no more than once annually.

                                                                     Page 3 of 6

III.   SERVICES

3.1.   TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICES
       Technical Support ordered by Customer will be provided under Oracle's
       Technical Support policies in effect on the date Technical Support is
       ordered, subject to the payment by Customer of the applicable fees.

3.2.   CONSULTING, TRAINING AND OTHER SERVICES
       A.  PROVISION OF SERVICES
           Oracle will provide consulting, training and other services agreed to
           by the parties under the terms of this Agreement. Consulting services
           shall be billed on a time and materials basis unless the parties
           expressly agree otherwise in writing.

       B.  DIRECTION OF SERVICES
           Unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing, Customer shall be
           responsible for the direction of the services.

       C.  NON-SOLICITATION
           During the term of an Oracle employee's work or assignment in
           connection with Services, and for a period of six (6) months after
           such work or assignment terminates, Customer agrees not to directly
           or indirectly solicit, recruit for employment or offer
           sub-contracting opportunities to or knowingly employ any such
           employee, without the prior written consent of Oracle. In the event
           of a breach of this provision by Customer, Customer shall pay Oracle
           as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to twelve
           (12) months salary for the employee engaged by the Customer.

       D.  CHANGES
           Oracle shall not be in breach of any warranties provided for in this
           Agreement if any of the relevant software, hardware, products, goals
           or related system environment has been changed by Customer or any
           other person without Oracle's specific consent in writing. Where such
           unauthorized changes impede or make more costly the provision of
           Technical Support or consulting services hereunder, Oracle shall take
           such corrective action only if Customer agrees to bear such
           additional cost, at Oracle's then prevailing rates.

       E.  COOPERATION
           Customer acknowledges that the timely provision of and access to
           office accommodations, facilities, equipment, assistance,
           cooperation, complete and accurate information and data from its
           officers, agents, and employees, and suitably configured computer
           products are essential to performance of any Services and that
           Oracle's ability to complete any Services is dependent upon same. If
           the relevant requirement(s), project plan(s), schedule, scope,
           specification(s), design(s), software, hardware product(s), or
           related system environment(s) or architecture are changed by Customer
           or any other person, Oracle shall not be responsible for the change
           unless Customer and Oracle specifically consent to the change,
           scheduling, and additional charges, if any, in writing.

3.3.   INCIDENTAL EXPENSES
       For any on-site Services requested by Customer, Customer shall reimburse
       Oracle for actual, reasonable travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred.

IV.    TERM AND TERMINATION

4.1.   TERM
       If not otherwise specified on the Order Form, each Program license shall
       remain in effect perpetually unless the license or this Agreement is
       terminated as provided in Section 4.2 or 4.3.

4.2.   TERMINATION BY CUSTOMER
       Customer may terminate any Program license at any time; however,
       termination shall not relieve Customer's obligations specified in Section
       4.4.

4.3.   TERMINATION BY ORACLE
       Oracle may terminate this Agreement or any Program license upon written
       notice if Customer breaches this Agreement and fails to correct such
       breach within 30 days following written notice thereof.

4.4.   EFFECT OF TERMINATION
       Termination of this Agreement or any license shall not limit either party
       from pursuing other remedies available to it, including injunctive
       relief, nor shall such termination relieve Customer's obligation to pay
       all fees that have accrued or are otherwise owed by Customer under any
       Order Form or other similar ordering document under this Agreement. The
       parties' rights and obligations under Sections 2.1B, 2.1C, 2.2B and 2.3,
       and Articles IV, V, VI and VII shall survive termination of this
       Agreement.

4.5.   HANDLING OF PROGRAMS UPON TERMINATION.
       If a license granted under this Agreement terminates, Customer shall: (a)
       cease using the applicable Programs; and (b) certify to Oracle within one
       month after termination that Customer has destroyed or has returned to
       Oracle the Programs and all copies. This requirement applies to copies in
       all forms, partial and complete, in all types of media and computer
       memory, and whether or not modified or merged into other materials.

V.     INDEMNITY, WARRANTIES, REMEDIES

5.1.   INFRINGEMENT INDEMNITY
       Oracle will defend and indemnify Customer against a claim that the
       Programs infringe a copyright or patent, provided that: (a) Customer
       notifies Oracle in writing within 30 days of the claim; (b) Oracle has
       sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations; and
       (c) Customer provides Oracle with the assistance, information and
       authority necessary to perform Oracle's obligations under this Section.
       Reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Customer in providing such
       assistance will be reimbursed by Oracle. Oracle shall have no liability
       for any claim of infringement based on use of a superseded or an altered
       release of a Program if the infringement would have been avoided by the
       use of a current unaltered release of the Program which Oracle provides
       to Customer.

       In the event a Program is held or is believed by Oracle to infringe,
       Oracle shall have the option, at its expense, to; (a) modify the Program
       to be non-infringing; or (b) obtain for Customer a license to continue
       using the Program. If it is not commercially reasonable to perform either
       of the above options, then Oracle may terminate the license for the
       infringing Program and refund the license fees paid for the Program. This
       Section 5.1 states Oracle's entire liability and Customer's exclusive
       remedy for infringement.

                                                                     Page 4 of 6

5.2.   WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS

A.     PROGRAM WARRANTY
       Oracle warrants for a period of one year from the Commencement Date that
       each unmodified Program will perform the functions described in the
       Documentation.

       Oracle warrants that the current production version of the Programs will,
       to the extent applicable as set forth in the Documentation, fully comply
       with the following millennium compliance statement when configured and
       used according to the documented instructions. The definition of
       compliance is the ability to:
         (a) correctly handle date information before, during and after 1
             January 2000 accepting date input, providing date output and
             performing calculation on dates or portions of dates;
         (b) function according to the Documentation, during and after 1 January
             2000 without changes in operation resulting from the advent of the
             new century assuming correct configuration;
         (c) where appropriate, respond to two digit date input in a way that
             resolves the ambiguity as to century in a disclosed, defined and
             predetermined manner;
         (d) store and provide output of date information in ways that are
             unambiguous as to century; and
         (e) manage the leap year occurring in the year 2000, following the
             quad-centennial rule.
       Oracle shall have no liability for any alleged or actual breach of the
       "year 2000" warranty provided in the preceding sentence if such claim is
       based upon a superseded or altered release of Programs and such claim
       would have been avoided by the use of a current unaltered release of
       Programs which Oracle provides to Customer. Any breach of this warranty
       is subject to the exclusive remedies as set forth in Section 5.3 of the
       Agreement

B.     MEDIA WARRANTY
       Oracle warrants the tapes, diskettes or other media to be free of defects
       in materials and workmanship under normal use for 90 days from the
       Commencement Date.

C.     SERVICES WARRANTY
       Oracle warrants that Services will be performed in accordance with
       generally accepted industry standards. This warranty shall be valid for
       90 days from the performance of such Services.

D.     DISCLAIMERS
       THE WARRANTIES ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
       WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND
       CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
       ORACLE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PROGRAMS WILL MEET CUSTOMER'S
       REQUIREMENTS, THAT THE PROGRAMS WILL OPERATE IN THE COMBINATIONS WHICH
       CUSTOMER MAY SELECT FOR USE, THAT THE OPERATION OF THE PROGRAMS WILL BE
       UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ALL PROGRAM ERRORS WILL BE
       CORRECTED. LIMITED PRODUCTION PROGRAMS, PRE-PRODUCTION RELEASES OF
       PROGRAMS, AND COMPUTER-BASED TRAINING PRODUCTS ARE DISTRIBUTED "AS IS."

5.3.   EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES
       For any breach of the warranties contained in Section 5.2, Customer's
       exclusive remedy, and Oracle's entire liability, shall be:

       A.  FOR PROGRAMS
           The correction of Program errors that cause breach of the warranty
           or, if Oracle is unable to make the Program operate as warranted,
           Customer shall be entitled to terminate the Program license and
           recover the fees paid to Oracle for the Program license.

       B.  FOR MEDIA
           The replacement of defective media returned within 90 days from the
           Commencement Date.

       C.  FOR SERVICES
           The re-performance of the Services or, if Oracle is unable to perform
           the Services as warranted, Customer shall be entitled to recover the
           fees paid to Oracle for the unsatisfactory Services.

VI.    PAYMENT PROVISIONS

6.1.   INVOICING AND PAYMENT
       All fees for Programs and Services provided hereunder shall be due and
       payable 30 days from the date of Oracle's invoice. Any amounts payable by
       Customer hereunder which remain unpaid after the due date shall be
       subject to a late charge equal to 12% per annum, calculated from the due
       date until such amounts are paid. Customer agrees to pay applicable media
       and shipping charges. Customer shall issue a purchase order or
       alternative document acceptable to Oracle, on or before the Effective
       Date of the applicable Order Form.

6.2.   TAXES
       The fees listed in this Agreement do not include taxes; if Oracle is
       required to pay sales, use, goods and services or other taxes based on
       the licenses granted or Services provided pursuant to this Agreement or
       on Customer's use of Programs or Services, then such taxes shall be
       billed to and paid by Customer. This Section shall not apply to taxes
       based on Oracle's income.

VII.   GENERAL TERMS

7.1    NONDISCLOSURE
       By virtue of this Agreement, the parties may have access to information
       that is confidential to one another ("Confidential Information").
       Confidential Information shall be limited to the Programs, the terms and
       pricing contained in this Agreement, and all information clearly
       identified as confidential. A party's Confidential Information shall not
       include information that: (a) is or becomes a part of the public domain
       through no act or omission of the other party; (b) was in the other
       party's lawful possession prior to the disclosure and had not been
       obtained by the other party either directly or indirectly from the
       disclosing party; (c) is lawfully disclosed to the other party by a third
       party without restriction on disclosure; or (d) is independently
       developed by the other party. Customer shall not disclose the results of
       any benchmark tests of the Programs to any third party without Oracle's
       prior written approval. The parties agree to hold each other's
       Confidential Information in confidence during the term of this Agreement
       and for a period of two years after termination of this Agreement. The
       parties agree, unless required by law, not to make each other's
       Confidential Information available in any form to any third party or to
       use each other's Confidential Information for any purpose other than the
       implementation of this Agreement. Each party agrees to take all
       reasonable steps to ensure that Confidential Information is not disclosed
       or distributed by its employees or agents in violation of the terms of
       this Agreement.

                                                                     Page 5 of 6

[ORACLE LOGO]                            SOFTWARE LICENSE AND SERVICES AGREEMENT

7.2    GOVERNING LAW
       This Agreement and all matters arising out of or relating to this
       Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario.

7.3    JURISDICTION
       Any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement shall be
       instituted in a court in Toronto, Ontario. Oracle and Customer agree to
       submit to the jurisdiction of, and agree that venue is proper in, these
       courts in any such legal action or proceeding.

7.4    NOTICE
       All notices, including notices of address change, required to be sent
       hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been received
       on the third business day following mailing by first class mail to the
       first address listed in the relevant Order Form (if to Customer) or to
       the Oracle address on the Order Form (if to Oracle). To expedite order
       processing, Customer agrees that Oracle may treat documents faxed by
       Customer to Oracle as original documents; nevertheless, either party may
       require the other to exchange original signed documents.

7.5    LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
       In no event shall either party be liable for any indirect, incidental,
       special or consequential damages, or damages for loss of profits,
       revenue, data or use, incurred by either party or any third party,
       whether in an action in contract or tort, even if the other party has
       been advised of the possibility of such damages or even if such damages
       were reasonably foreseeable. Oracle's liability for damages hereunder
       shall in no event exceed the amount of fees paid by Customer under the
       relevant Order Form, and if such damages result from Customer's use of
       the Programs or the provision of Services such liability shall be limited
       to fees paid for the relevant Program or Services giving rise to the
       liability. The provisions of this Agreement allocate the risks between
       Oracle and Customer. Oracle's pricing reflects this allocation of risk
       and the limitation of liability specified herein.

7.6    SEVERABILITY
       In the event any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or
       unenforceable, the remaining provisions thereof will remain in full
       force.

7.7    WAIVER
       The waiver by either party of any default or breach of this Agreement
       shall not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent default or
       breach. Except for actions for non-payment or breach of Oracle's
       proprietary rights in the Programs, no action, regardless of form,
       arising out of this Agreement may be brought by either party more than
       one year after the cause of action has arisen.

7.8    EXPORT ADMINISTRATION
       Customer agrees to comply fully with all relevant export laws and
       regulations of Canada and the United States ("Export Laws") to assure
       that neither the Programs nor any direct product thereof are (1)
       exported, directly or indirectly, in violation of Export Laws; or (2) are
       intended to be used for any purposes prohibited by the Export Laws
       including, without limitation, nuclear, chemical or biological weapons
       proliferation.

7.9    RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES
       Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create a partnership,
       joint venture or agency relationship between the parties.

7.10   ENTIRE AGREEMENT
       This Agreement constitutes the complete agreement between the parties and
       supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements or representations,
       written or oral, concerning the subject matter of this Agreement. This
       Agreement may not be modified or amended except in writing signed by a
       duly authorized representative of each party; no other act, document,
       usage or custom shall be deemed to amend or modify this Agreement. It is
       expressly agreed that the terms of this Agreement and any Order Form
       shall supersede the terms contained in any Customer purchase order or
       other ordering document. This Agreement shall also supersede the terms of
       any unsigned or "shrinkwrap" license included in any package, media, or
       electronic version of Oracle-furnished software and any such software
       shall be licensed under the terms of this Agreement, provided that the
       use limitations contained in any unsigned ordering document shall be
       effective for the specified licenses.

7.11   SEPARATION OF LICENSES AND SERVICES
       Any Services acquired by Customer from Oracle are deemed to have been bid
       and acquired separately from any Program licenses granted under this
       Agreement, with Customer having the right to acquire such Services and
       Program licenses without acquiring the other.

ADDENDUM NO. 2 to Order Form bearing an effective date of ________ under the
Software License and Services Agreement between ("Customer") and Oracle
Corporation Canada Inc.("Oracle") bearing an Effective Date of ________ (the
"Agreement"). This Addendum shall only be deemed to supersede the terms of the
Agreement that are inconsistent with a term or provision contained herein. All
the defined terms contained in the Agreement and used in this Addendum shall
have the same meanings unless varied herein.



The parties hereby agree to amend the Agreement as follows:



1.   The Program(s) listed herein is licensed to Customer pursuant to the Power
     Unit licensing method set out below and such Program(s) is designated as a
     Web Specific Program license, also as set out below.

2.   "POWER UNIT - RISC": One Power Unit - RISC is defined as one MHz of power
     in all RISC processors in the computers on which the Programs are installed
     and operating. The total number of Power Units - RISC is determined by
     adding together the number of MHz in all the processors in all such
     computers. Customer may add processors and computers, or modify existing
     processors and computers, provided that if, at any time, Customer's use
     exceeds the total number of licensed Power Units - RISC, Customer will
     acquire licenses for the additional Power Units - RISC. At Oracle's
     request, no more than once annually, Customer shall certify in writing the
     Power Unit - RISC computation, including the number of relevant computers
     and processors, and the MHz of each such processor. (For example: two
     computers with two 400 MHz processors each would equal 1,600 Power Units -
     RISC).

3.   A "WEB SPECIFIC" Program is defined as a Program license which may only be
     accessed by third parties via internet networking protocols and which is
     limited to use solely for deployment of Customer's public web site.
     Customer's application may allow third party web access to a licensed Web
     Specific Program solely for viewing, querying or adding data, provided such
     use is in accordance with the other terms of the Agreement.
      No corporate use or internal data processing by Customer or its clients
     shall be permitted with a Web Specific Program. Prohibited corporate and
     internal uses shall include, but shall not be limited to, the following
     types of uses: human resource, finance and administration, internal
     messaging and communications, accounting, sales force management, etc
