NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
EduLink, Inc., dba The Learning Priority (the "Company"), a California
corporation, is engaged in the design, development, and production of an
integrated Internet educational service called the "EduLink Smart
Schoolhouse (sm)," which is intended to be marketed to and utilized by
students, parents, teachers, and school administrators.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going
concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in
the financial statements, during the nine months ended September 30, 2002
and 2001, the Company incurred losses of $512,635 (unaudited) and
$1,695,736 (unaudited), respectively. In addition, the bridge notes
amounting to $350,000 were due for payment on August 31, 2002 but the due
date was extended per oral agreements to March 31, 2003. As of September
30, 2002, the Company is in the development stage and is primarily engaged
in research and development activities. Accordingly, the accompanying
statements of operations should not be regarded as typical for normal
periods of operation. The Company's development stage status, recurring
net losses, and capital deficit raise substantial doubt about its ability
to continue as a going concern. Additional financing will be required in
order for the Company to complete its development stage activities and
debt service obligations. Management believes that it will be able to
obtain such financing from new investors.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of liabilities that might be necessary
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Development Stage Enterprise
The Company is a development stage company as defined in Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 7, "Accounting and Reporting
by Development Stage Enterprises." The Company is devoting substantially
all of its present efforts to establish a new business, and its planned
principal operations have not yet commenced. All losses accumulated since
inception has been considered as part of the Company's development stage
activities.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Comprehensive Income
The Company utilizes SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This
statement establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income and its
components in a financial statement. Comprehensive income as defined
includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner
sources. Examples of items to be included in comprehensive income, which
are excluded from net income, include foreign currency translation
adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale
securities. Comprehensive income is not presented in the Company's
financial statements since the Company did not have any of the items of
comprehensive income in any period presented.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization
are provided on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of
five years.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets to be held and used for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected
future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than
the carrying amount of the asset, the Company would recognize an
impairment loss based on the estimated fair value of the asset.
Stock-Based Compensation
SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," establishes and
encourages the use of the fair value based method of accounting for
stock-based compensation arrangements under which compensation cost is
determined using the fair value of stock-based compensation determined as
of the date of grant and is recognized over the periods in which the
related services are rendered. The statement also permits companies to
elect to continue using the current implicit value accounting method
specified in Accounting Principles Bulletin ("APB") Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," to account for stock-based
compensation issued to employees. The Company has elected to use the
intrinsic value based method and has disclosed the pro forma effect of
using the fair value based method to account for its stock-based
compensation.
Software Development Costs
Development costs incurred in the research and development of new software
products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility in the
form of a working model has been established. To date, the Company has not
completed its software development to the point of technological
feasibility, and accordingly, no costs have been capitalized.

DECEMBER 31, 2001 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income
taxes. The asset and liability method accounts for deferred income taxes
by applying enacted statutory rates in effect for periods in which the
difference between the book value and the tax bases of assets and
liabilities are scheduled to reverse. The resulting deferred tax asset or
liability is adjusted to reflect changes in tax laws or rates. Because the
Company has incurred losses from operations, no benefit is realized for
the tax effect of the net operating loss carry forward and software
development costs capitalized for tax purposes due to the uncertainty of
its realization.
Loss per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common
shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.
Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except
that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional
common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common
shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilative.
Because the Company has incurred net losses, basic and diluted loss per
share are the same.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." This statement addresses
financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or
disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF")
Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination
Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs
Incurred in a Restructuring)." This statement requires that a liability
for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when
the liability is incurred. Under EITF Issue 94-3, a liability for an exit
cost, as defined, was recognized at the date of an entity's commitment to
an exit plan. The provisions of this statement are effective for exit or
disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002 with
earlier application encouraged. The Company does not expect adoption of
SFAS No. 146 to have a material impact, if any, on its financial position
or results of operations.

received in two installments. The first installment of $100,000 was
received in December 2001. The second installment of $150,000 was
received in January 2002. The note matures on March 31, 2002 and may
be converted at the lender's request into common stock. The number
of shares will be determined by dividing $0.05 into that portion of
the money owed by the Company.
The lender was also assigned an aggregate of 6,000,000 existing
warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at an
exercise price of $0.0022 per share. Of these warrants, 2,400,000
were assigned upon the debtor's receipt of the first $100,000 loan
installment, and 3,600,000 are to be assigned upon the debtor's
receipt of the last $150,000 loan installment.
The proceeds of the $250,000 loan have been allocated between the
note payable and the warrants based on their relative fair value.
The resulting interest expense associated with these warrants
assigned was $129,168 was recorded during the three months ended
March 31, 2002.
NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company received a
loan from its Chief Executive Officer for $88,000 (unaudited) in order to

the material matters of EduLink's financial condition, results of operation,
capital resources and liquidity. It should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto and other information appearing elsewhere
in this report.
OVERVIEW
EduLink, Inc. is a development stage company engaged in the design and
development of a seamless integrated Internet educational service, called the
Smart Schoolhouse system, for schools and homes, that is intended to be marketed
to and utilized by students, parents, teachers and school administrators. The
planned service will be delivered over the Internet to personal computer users.
The Company originally estimated that it needed a total of approximately $8.5
million to produce, alpha test, beta test and launch the System for grades 7th
and 8th only. The Company now intends to include all grades from 3rd through
12th as well as the home-school market. The Company estimates that it needs an
additional $5.5 million to complete the modifications required for the System's
application to the home-school market and for grades 3rd through 6th and 9th
through 12th, to license third party curriculum content for grades 3rd through
6th, 9th through 12th, to beta test, launch and market the system for grades 3rd
through 12th, to complete the production of additional enabling tools, to
provide the infrastructure to market and exploit the Company's technologies, and
to commence the creation of proprietary curriculum content for two additional
grades, 9th and 10th. It has raised a total of approximately $9.3 million, net
of expenses, towards the goal of a total $14 million as of September 30, 2002,
primarily through the December 1999 private placement of common stock.
The Company expects that expenses (including software development costs and
general and administrative costs) will be approximately $5 million per year from
2002 to 2004, to create curriculum content for two additional grade levels each
year, to alpha test and beta test the content so created, to produce additional
software tools, to upgrade technologies to continue operations, to increase
marketing activities for the Smart Schoolhouse system and to continue marketing
the Company's technologies for application in markets outside of the 3rd through
12th U.S. education market.

REVENUE
EduLink is a development stage enterprise and has spent most of its efforts
during the past five years in developing its Smart Schoolhouse system web based
software initially for the 7th and 8th grades, and now also for 3rd through 6th
and 9th through 12th grades as well as the home-school market, which is intended
to be launched upon the start of the next customary school year in September,
2002 following the completion of the beta test and resultant modifications to
the system, if any. Accordingly, EduLink has not generated any revenues to date.
EduLink's cumulative losses from inception through September 30, 2002 are
$15,441,457.
INTEREST INCOME
Interest income in 2002 arose from investment of capital raised through the
December 1999 private placement of common stock.
SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Software development costs decreased by $910,393 to $12,884 for the six-month
period ended September 30, 2002, from $923,277 for the six-month period ended
June 30, 2001. The decrease in software development costs resulted from the
completion of a part of EduLink's software development activities after the
third quarter 2001.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
General and administrative expenses decreased by $1,729,915 to $584,438 for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, compared with $2,314,353 for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 2001. The main reasons for the variance
are decrease of G & A payroll, wages and bonus expenses, legal fees, rent and
equipment rental expenses in the nine-month period ending September 30, 2002, as
compared to the nine-month period ending September 30, 2001.
The Company's payroll and payroll related expenses decreased by $397,225 to 0 in
the nine-month period ending September 30, 2002 from $397,225 in the nine-month
period ending September 30, 2001. In the nine-month period ending September 30,
2001, the Company paid a bonus of $140,000 to Company's executive officers, in
return for the termination of warrants; moreover, the Company's Westlake office
was closed during the first quarter ending March 31, 2002, resulting in the
termination of one employee who had received compensation during the six-month
period ending June 30, 2001.
The Company's rent and equipment rental expenses decreased by $47,746 to $38,857
in the nine-month period ending September 30, 2002 from $86,603 in the
nine-month period ending September 30, 2001, as a result of the closing of
Company's Westlake office. Legal and accounting fees decreased by $74,975 to
$88,969 during the nine-month period ending September 30, 2002 from $163,944
during the nine-month period ending September 30, 2001 because Company's
requirement for legal services during the nine-month period ending September 30,
2002 decreased.

REVENUE
EduLink is a development stage enterprise and has spent most of its efforts
during the past five years in developing the proposed Smart Schoolhouse system
web-based software initially for the 7th and 8th grades, and now also for 3rd
through 6th and 9th through 12th grades as well as the home-school market, which
is now intended to be beta tasted in the spring of 2003 and launched in the Fall
of 2003 following the completion of the beta test and resultant modifications to
the system. Accordingly, EduLink has not generated any revenues to date.
EduLink's cumulative losses from inception through September 30, 2002 were
$14,817,150.
SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Software development costs decreased by $149,941 to 0 for the three months ended
September 30, 2002, from $149,941 for the three months ended September 30, 2001.
The decrease in software development costs in third quarter of 2002 arose from
the completion of a part of EduLink's software development activities and there
were insufficient funds to further the development and promotion of its web site
for the Smart Schoolhouse system.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
General and administrative expenses decreased by $210,476 to $157,398 for the
three months ended September 30, 2001, compared with $347,874 for the three
months ended September 30, 2001. The main reason for the variance was decreased
payroll, legal and consulting expenses.
The company's payroll and payroll related expenses decreased $118,735 to 97,500
in the three months ended September 30, 2002 from $216,235 in the three months
ended September 30, 2001. This is because of the closure of the Westlake village
office and termination of another employee.
The Company's legal and accounting expenses decreased by $22,636 to $16,753 for
the three months ended September 30, 2002, from $39,389 for the three months
ended September 30, 2001. This was due to reduced level of activity during the
three months ended September 30, 2002.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company's interest expenses increased by $2,642 to $8,726 for the three
months ended September 30, 2002, from $6,084 for the three months ended
September 30,2002. The increase was because the loans were outstanding for the
entire three months ended September 30, 2002.
The Company rent expenses decreased by $8,691 to $7,201 for the three months
ended September 30, 2002, from $15,892 for the three months ended September 30,
2001. This was due to the closure of the Westlake village office.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since 1996, EduLink has financed its working capital needs through capital
contributions by stockholders, private placement of common equity and bridge
loans. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had cash of approximately $1,114.
Cash used in operations was $69,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2002,
and $14,727,749 from inception through September 30, 2002. Cash used in
operations during each of these periods was primarily for expenses related to
software development, marketing, general and administrative expenses. Since 1996
through September 30, 2002, the Company has raised $9,777,579 through private
placements of common stock and seed capital from one of the Company's executives
and approximately $625,000 through bridge loans. In August 2000, the Company
amended its employment contracts with its President, Chief Executive Officer,
and Senior Vice President. The amendments terminated the issuance of an
aggregate of 17,152,950 warrants to these officers upon completion of each of
the build-out elements, the beta test, and the national launch of the Smart
Schoolhouse system. In consideration for the warrant termination, the Company
agreed to give $50,000 each to its President and its Chief Executive Officer and
$30,000 to its Senior Vice President as compensation. In addition, the President
and Chief Executive Officer each received an additional $160,000 during 2001,
payable to each officer at the rate of $50,000 in January 2001 and $10,000 per
month for eleven consecutive months commencing February 1, 2001. No compensation
was paid to these offices during the second quarter ending September 30, 2002.
As indicated above under the caption "Overview," the estimated cost of EduLink's
development program and its projected expenses over the next twelve months will
exceed its current cash resources. EduLink anticipates that it will need to
raise an additional $5 million of capital in order to meet its anticipated cash
requirements up to the planned launch of the Smart Schoolhouse system for the
3rd through 12th grades. Changes in the Company's development program or other
changes affecting operating expenses could alter the timing and amount of
expenditures and therefore the amount and timing of when the Company will
require additional funding. Our independent auditor, Singer, Lewak, Greenbaum &
Goldstein, LLP, has expressed substantial doubt as to EduLink's ability to
continue as a going concern for the year ended December 31, 2001 based on
significant operating losses that Edulink has incurred since inception and the
fact that Edulink is currently in default of its bridge note payables. EduLink
currently plans to raise sufficient additional capital through private placement
of its common stock and/or private placement of debt or preferred stock
convertible into its common stock to meet its ongoing cash needs, until such
time as its business generates cash flow sufficient to fund its operations.
However, the additional funding the Company requires may not be available on
acceptable terms or at all. If the Company cannot obtain adequate funding, it
could be required to significantly curtail or even shutdown operations.
During the three months ended June 30, 2002 principle shareholder and one
employee waived a total of $97,500 of their salaries owed to them in which has
been expensed and accounted for as additional paid in capital to the Company.
During the three months ended September 30, 2002, this same individuals agreed
to defer $97,500 of the salaries, and such sums have been expensed and accounted
for as compensation payable
