                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholder of Panmedia Corporation:

    We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Panmedia Corporation (a
California corporation) as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related
statements of operations and accumulated earnings and cash flows for the years
then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

    We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

    In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Panmedia Corporation as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations and accumulated
earnings and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997

1. INCORPORATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS:

    Panmedia Corporation, (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the
State of California on January 21, 1998. Prior to incorporation, the Company
operated as a sole proprietorship. The Company provides website design and
implementation services for corporate clients.

    The Company is also the owner of Learn2.com, a popular learning website. The
website offers step-by-step instructions on a wide spectrum of skills,
activities and tasks; an extensive set of discussion forums where consumers can
find and share information; and hundreds of helpful tips. Approximately 200
comprehensive tutorials and 1,000 Learnlets, (abbreviated tutorials), are
currently available and another 200 tutorials are in the editorial development
process.

    The Company merged with 7(th) Level, Inc. in May 1999 (See Note 10).

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

CASH EQUIVALENTS

    Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid short term investments
with original maturities of three months or less.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

    Revenues for website design services rendered are recognized based either on
time and material charges incurred during the period, the achievement of project
milestones as defined by customer contracts or percentage of completion for
fixed fee contracts. Unbilled charges consist of labor costs incurred and
estimate earnings, production and other client reimbursable costs. Provisions
for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which
such losses are determined. Amounts billed which are not yet earned are
classified as deferred revenue in the accompanying balance sheet.

    Revenues from advertising sales are recognized ratably in the period in
which the advertisement is displayed, provided that no significant Company
obligations remain and collection of the resulting receivable is probable.
Payments received from advertisers prior to displaying their advertisements on
the website are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized as revenue
ratably as the advertisements are displayed.

    On April 3, 1998, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with a
publisher under which the Company receives royalty income from sales of "The
Learn2 Guide." The Company received $60,000 in royalties which is included in
net revenues on the accompanying statement of operations and accumulated
earnings for the twelve months ended December 31, 1998.

    To date, a majority of the Company's revenues are from website design and
implementation services.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

    The Company provides for depreciation and amortization using the
straight-line method to allocate the cost of property and equipment over their
estimated useful lives as follows:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
ASSET CLASSIFICATION                                         ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE
- ----------------------------------------  ------------------------------------------------------------
<S>                                       <C>
Leasehold improvements                      Lesser of estimated life or remaining term of the lease
Computer equipment                                                  3 years
Office equipment                                                    5 years
Furniture and fixtures                                              10 years
</TABLE>

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

    The Company adopted SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." Under the
provisions of this statement, the Company has evaluated its long-lived assets
for financial impairment, and will continue to evaluate them as events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may
not be fully recoverable.

    The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets held for sale
by comparing the assets carrying amount with its fair value less cost to sell.
Based on these evaluations, there were no adjustments to the carrying value of
long-lived assets in 1998 or 1997.

INCOME TAXES

    The Company has elected S Corporation status for federal and state income
tax reporting purposes. As a result, the Company's earnings are taxable directly
to the stockholder. The Company remains liable, however, for the State of
California taxes.

USE OF ESTIMATES

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

    The Company's estimates and future results could be adversely affected by a
number of uncertainties related to its new software products. Such factors
include, but are not limited to, market acceptance; ability to obtain sales
volumes and adequate prices; the Company's sustained commitment of resources to
further develop and market its technology; and the technological competitive
advantage of these new products.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
("SFAS No. 130"). SFAS No. 130 requires disclosure of all components of
comprehensive income on an annual and interim basis. Comprehensive income is
defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from
transactions and other events and circumstances from nonowner sources. SFAS No.
130 is effective

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The adoption had no impact
on the Company's financial position, results of operations and accumulated
earnings or cash flows in the current year.

    In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use". SOP 98-1 requires computer
software costs associated with internal use software to be charged to operations
as incurred until certain capitalization criteria are met. SOP 98-1 is effective
beginning January 1, 1999. The Company does not expect adoption of this
statement to have a material impact on its financial position, results of
operations and accumulated earnings or cash flows.

3. FIXED ASSETS, NET:

    Fixed assets, at cost as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 consisted of the

    SFAS No. 105, "Disclosure of Information About Financial Instruments With
Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Financial Instruments With Concentrations of Credit
Risk," requires disclosure of any significant off-balance sheet risk and credit
risk concentrations.

    During 1998, sales to 2 customers amounted to approximately 53% and 16% of
total sales. In 1997, sales to 4 customers amounted to approximately 32%, 18%,
11% and 10% of total sales.

                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

                           DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997

         SUMMARY UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA

    The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements
present the effect of the merger between 7th Level and the Company as a pooling
of interests. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet presents
the combined financial position of 7th Level and the Company as of March 31,
1999 assuming that the merger had occurred as of that date. Such pro forma
information is based upon the historical consolidated balance sheet of 7th
Level. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations give
effect to the merger of 7th Level and the Company by combining the consolidated
results of operations of 7th Level for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and
1998 and for each of the two years ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997
with the results of operations of the Company for December 31, 1998 and 1997, as
a pooling of interests. The results of operations for the Company for the year
ended December 31, 1996 are not included in the pro forma information as they
were immaterial to the consolidated results of 7th Level for the respective
period. The financial statements of the Company, included in this document, have
been prepared to conform to the presentation of 7th Level.

    Additionally, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of
operations reflect the acquisition by 7th Level of Street Technologies, Inc.,
now known as 7th Street.com in February 1999. This acquisition was accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting. The pro forma condensed combined
balance sheet has been prepared as if such acquisition had been effective as of
December 31, 1998 while the pro forma condensed combined statement of operations
for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the three months ended March 31, 1999
and 1998 have been prepared as if such acquisition had been effective as of
January 1, 1998.

    The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on
the estimates and assumptions set forth in the notes to such statements, which
are preliminary and have been made solely for purposes of developing such pro
forma information. The information has been prepared in accordance with the
rules and regulations of the SEC and is provided for comparative purposes only.
The pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the results that
actually would have occurred had the merger been effected on January 1 of the
years presented.

    7th Level and the Company estimate that they will incur direct transaction
costs of approximately $300,000 in connection with the proposed merger of 7th
Level with the Company which will be charged to operations in the quarter in
which the merger is consummated. These amounts are preliminary estimates and are
therefore subject to change. 7th Level may incur additional merger related costs
in subsequent quarters to reflect costs associated with the merger.

    All of the financial data set forth below should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements of 7th Level, Inc. filed in its Form
10-K/A and the financial statements of 7th Street.com, Inc. filed in its Form
8-K/A dated February 16, 1999.
