                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

         The accompanying  unaudited financial  statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles for interim financial
information  and  with the  instructions  to Form  10-QSB  and  Item  310(b)  of
Regulation  S-B.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial  statements.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the Company's  financial  statements  for the fiscal year ended October 31,
1995  included  in the  Annual  Report as filed on Form  10-KSB  with the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission.

         In the opinion of  management,  all  adjustments  (consisting of normal
recurring  accruals)  considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  have been
included.

         The results of  operations  for the nine months ended July 31, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full fiscal year
ending October 31, 1996.

NOTE (A) - The Company:

         UC Television Network Corp.,  formerly Laser Video Network,  Inc. ("the
Company"),  is a broadcasting  company which owns and operates the UC Television
Network  ("UCTN"),  a  proprietary  interactive  commercial  television  network
operating on college and university campuses,  through single-channel television
systems  placed  primarily  in campus  dining  facilities  and  student  unions.
Substantially  all  of the  Company's  revenues  are  derived  from  advertising
displayed  on UCTN.  At July 31,  1996,  the  Company had an  installed  base of
approximately  200  entertainment  systems at various  colleges and universities
throughout the United States.

         The  Company's  revenues  are  affected by the  pattern of  seasonality
common to most school-related businesses.  Historically, the Company generates a
significant  portion of its revenues during the period of September  through May
and  substantially  less  revenues  during the summer  months when  colleges and
universities do not hold regular classes.  Furthermore,  the Company retrofitted
its  existing  systems  during the summer  months of 1996 in order to be able to
utilize satellite transmission technology as a means of updating its programming
on UCTN. This retrofit required a shut down of the network, resulting in minimal
sales during this period.

         Pursuant to a private placement  offering  ("Private  Placement"),  the
Company issued an aggregate of 4,914,293  shares of its Common Stock at $.70 per
share on April 26, 1996 and May 28, 1996. The offering  resulted in net proceeds
of $2,974,989, after payment of placement expenses and agent commissions.  Under
the Private  Placement,  warrants to purchase an additional  4,914,293 shares of
its Common Stock were also issued. The warrants,  which are exercisable at $1.29
per  share,  will  expire  five  years  from the issue  date.  The  Company  has
registered  the shares of Common Stock  issued and to be issued  pursuant to the
Private Placement.


<PAGE>

NOTE (A) - The Company:  (Continued)

         Management  intends  to use the  proceeds  to  finance,  in  part,  the
Company's installation of new satellite transmission  technology on UCTN as well
as  provide  the  Company  with  additional   working  capital  for  operations.
Management  believes that the aggregate net proceeds received and funds expected
to be generated from operations will provide the Company with sufficient working
capital to sustain  operations  through at least the fiscal year ending  October
31,  1996.  Additional  financing  may be needed for the  Company to continue to
expand into additional college dining facilities.

NOTE (B) - Contingencies:

         In  connection  with the  acquisition  of certain  assets,  the Company
agreed to pay two former  shareholders  of the seller an  aggregate of $100,000,
one-half  being payable at such time the Company's net pre-tax  income equals at
least $500,000, and the balance being payable at such time as the Company has an
additional $500,000 in net pre-tax earnings.

Item 2.               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                              OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

         The following  discussion  and analysis  should be read in  conjunction
with the Company's financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

Results of Operations

         The  Company  is a  broadcasting  company  whose  principal  activities
involve operating and marketing the UC Television  Network  ("UCTN"),  a private
commercial  television  network.  At July 31, 1996, the Company had an installed
base  of  approximately  200  entertainment  systems  at  various  colleges  and
universities throughout the United States. Substantially all of its revenues are
derived from advertising displayed on UCTN.

         In order to utilize  satellite  transmission  technology  as a means of
updating its programming on UCTN, the Company  retrofitted its existing  systems
installed at college and university  campuses  during the summer months of 1996.
This retrofit  required a shut-down of the network for the summer,  resulting in
minimal sales during this period.  Although installation of the satellite dishes
at campus  locations will continue  through the fall and  system-wide  satellite
transmissions  are not  expected to commence  until  January  1997,  the network
became  operational at the start of the fall 1996  semester.  The campus systems
will  continue  to be  updated  via  CD-ROM  until the  satellite  transmissions
commence.

         The Company's  sales are affected by the pattern of seasonality  common
to  most  school-related  businesses.  Historically,  the  Company  generates  a
significant  portion of its sales during September through May and substantially
less during the summer months when colleges and universities do not hold regular
sessions.

         The following table sets forth certain  financial data derived from the
Company's  statement of operations  for the three and nine months ended July 31,
1996 and July 31, 1995:

</TABLE>


         Sales  decreased to $77,000 for the  three-month  period ended July 31,
1996 ("third fiscal quarter") as compared to $110,087 for the comparable  period
last  year.  As  discussed  above,  in order to utilize  satellite  transmission
technology  as a  means  of  updating  its  programming  on  UCTN,  the  Company
retrofitted its existing  systems  installed at college and university  campuses
during  the summer  months of 1996.  This  retrofit  required a shut down of the
network for the summer, resulting in minimal sales during this period.

         Sales for nine-month period ended July 31, 1996 increased to $1,196,213
versus  $849,989  for  the  comparable   period  last  year.  The  increase  was
attributable  to a combination of increased  advertising by existing  customers,
adding new customers and  increased  advertising  rates during the first half of
the fiscal  year.  Even  though  sales  during  the  summer  months of 1996 were
minimal,  management  anticipates  sales to increase overall for the fiscal year
ending  October 31, 1996 ("Fiscal  1996").  Although the Company has  agreements
with national  advertisers and has held discussions or had prior agreements with
other  national  advertisers,  no  assurance  can be given  that  these or other
advertisers  will  continue to purchase  advertising  from the Company,  or that
future  significant  advertising  revenues will ever be generated.  A failure to
significantly  increase advertising revenues could have a material impact on the
operations of the Company.

         The cost of sales decreased to $294,792 for the three months ended July
31, 1996 from  $313,115 for the  comparable  period last year.  Lower  operating
costs  due to the  shut-down  of the  network  during  most of the  quarter  was
partially  offset by costs  associated with the preparation for the retrofitting
of  existing  systems  to  receive  satellite  transmissions.  The cost of sales
increased  to  $972,162  for the  nine-month  periods  ended July 31,  1996 from
$904,178 for the comparable periods last year. The increase relates primarily to
costs  associated  with  the  preparation  for  the  conversion  of  UCTN  to  a
satellite-delivered network.

         Selling,  general and administrative expenses increased to $741,532 and
$2,096,885 for the three and nine-month periods ended July 31, 1996, as compared
to $654,791 and  $2,009,926  for the same periods last year.  Such increases for
both the three and nine-month periods relate to a severance  arrangement entered
into during the third fiscal quarter,  offset partially by decreased  consulting
fees.  In  addition,  during the nine months  ended July 31,  1996,  advertising
agency fees increased as a result of the increased sales during that period.


<PAGE>

         Interest  income  increased  by 23% to  $31,925  for the  third  fiscal
quarter as a result of the investment of the proceeds from the private placement
described below.  Interest income decreased to $42,911 for the nine-month period
ended July 31, 1996 as compared to $67,563 for the comparable  period last year.
The decrease is  attributed  lower  average cash levels during the first half of
Fiscal 1996.

         The net loss for the third fiscal  quarter  reached  $927,399,  up from
$831,818  for the  comparable  period  last year,  however  the net loss for the
nine-month  period ended July 31, 1996 totaled  $1,829,923  down from $1,996,552
for the comparable period last year. The Company has incurred substantial losses
since  commencement  of its  operations  and  anticipates  that such losses will
continue  through  Fiscal 1996. In order to reach the stage where the Company is
profitable,  the Company will need to continue to expand into additional college
dining facilities.  Furthermore, additional financing may be required to produce
the additional systems necessary to reach profitable operating levels.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

         At July 31, 1996,  the Company had working  capital of  $2,654,346.  At
such date, the Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $2,885,921.

         Cash used in  operations  decreased to $950,884  during the nine months
ended July 31, 1996 from  $1,470,786  for the  comparable  period last year. The
decrease is related  primarily to cash flows generated by increased sales during
the current fiscal year.

         Production  of new  systems  during the first  half of Fiscal  1996 was
delayed in  anticipation  of UCTN  converting to a  satellite-delivered  network
during the summer of 1996.  As a result,  the Company  sold  equipment no longer
needed for the satellite  network,  primarily at cost,  and such sales  exceeded
property  and  equipment  purchased  for the nine months  ended July 31, 1996 by
$69,392.  Net  purchases  of property and  equipment  for the same period in the
prior  year  was  $171,992.  The  Company  has  contracted  with  an  authorized
distributor   of  IBM  to   provide   hardware   required   to   upgrade   to  a
satellite-delivered  network.  Commitments  for equipment to the IBM distributor
totaled approximately $900,000 at July 31, 1996.

         Pursuant to the Private  Placement  on April 26, 1996 and May 28, 1996,
the Company  issued an aggregate of 4,914,293  shares of its Common  Stock.  The
issuances  resulted in net proceeds of  $2,974,989,  after  payment of placement
expenses  and agent  commissions.  Management  intends  to use the  proceeds  to
finance,  in part,  the Company's  installation  of new  satellite  transmission
technology  on its UCTN as well as provide the Company with  additional  working
capital for  operations.  Management  believes  that the  aggregate net proceeds
received and funds  expected to be generated  from  operations  will provide the
Company with sufficient  working capital to sustain  operations through at least
the fiscal year ending October 31, 1996.  Additional financing may be needed for
the  Company to continue to expand into  additional  college  dining  facilities
required to reach profitable operating levels.

         In the event the Company does not achieve  anticipated  revenue  levels
and/or obtain additional financing,  the Company expects to reduce its operating
expenses by, among other  actions,  downsizing  its  personnel  and reducing its
marketing, promotional and product development costs in an effort to reduce cash
requirements.  Reduction of operating  expenses  alone is not expected to assure
profitability.

                           secretary) to terminate his/her employment;

                           indirectly,  employ any person  within six (6) months
                           after the termination of such person's  employment by

                           become  or remain  employed  or  associated  with any
                           other person or entity which does so;

                  c)       other than your personal effects, you will not remove
                           any documents,  files or other papers  (written or in
                           machine  readable  form)  from  the  premises  of the
                           Company  and  you  will  promptly  turn  over  to the
                           Company  any  documents,  files  or other  papers  or
                           records of the Company or  relating to its  business,

                           addressed or directed to the  Company,  which you may
                           at any time  hereafter  receive or  discover to be in
                           your possession;

                  d)       you will not, for a period of two (2) years following
                           the date of this  Agreement,  engage in any  business
                           competitive with the business presently  conducted by
                           the Company -- i.e., the College  Television  Network
                           which develops television programming for the college
                           market,  nor  will  you  accept  employment  with any
                           employer  which is so engaged,  or which  proposed to
                           use your services to be so engage; and
