This is a letter from Dr. Alan (FAKE PHD) Phan to all HRCT shareholders:

December 2nd, 1999

Dear Shareholders:

It has been a wild week for Hartcourt. While you are sitting in front of the computer, watching and cheering the HRCT scores, I have to deal daily with 9 pending acquisitions, 4 strategic partnership proposals, 3 underwiting negotiations, 2 attempted buy-outs, all in the midst of the search for CEO and CTO, the completion of paperwork for NASDAQ application, the start-up of the Sinobull.com portal as well as the Innostar project, the listing of Enova shares, the contracts with the new auditors and P/R firms, the year-end SEC reports, the management supervision of UAC, FTL, Pego, the meeting schedule of my China trip and the break-up with my girlfriend. I wish I could have some time to watch the HRCT game like you. However, the good news is all above will get done by January 15th, 2000. As agreements are signed, news will be released, Hartcourt will march steadily forward and nobody can stop us. Your strong support makes the Hartcourt team the best there is. I have read all of your Emails, and the most frequently-asked questions are: what will I bring back from the coming China trip, when will we be listed on Nasdaq, how many shares of Sinobull IPO can you buy, how do we deal with new post-WTO competitors, will we sell out to the big boys and will I bring a new girlfriend to the January party. Two questions I have to ignore are: when is the next news release and what the share price is going to be by 12/30/99. 1. China Trip: The objective of my China and Hong Kong trip is to sign agreements with powerful Chinese companies who have agreed to be our equity partners in the Sinobull.com IPO. Their participation will help bring in the biggest investment banker in Hong Kong to underwrite our IPO. A well-known American company will also be on board once the Chinese partners' agreements are in place. These are the final pieces of the IPO puzzle, which will clarify why the $500 Million value of Sinobull.com is extremely modest. 2. IPO Shares: We have also requested the above banker that we would like to reserve a portion of the Sinobull IPO shares for our existing shareholders. The Board of Directors will decide the cut-off date and every shareholder of records will get the proportional shares of the IPO according to the size of his or her HRCT holdings. 3. NASDAQ Listing: Our attorney is preparing for the application to list on NASDAQ National Market System. We are qualified now, and we should submit it by December 20th. 4. WTO And Competition: As I have mentioned before, we are ready for the challenges from any competitor. However, we still have a two-year headstart, considering the slow political process of WTO approval, the difficulties in finding the right Chinese partner and the complicated bureaucratic structure of business licensing. We will dominate the market before somebody shows up at the door. 5. Selling Out: I am here to turn Hartcourt into an Internet empire, not to make a few millions. However, you might have different goal. I guess if Bill Gates starts handling out $100-bills, I will be the only one left in Hartcourt. So let's be realistic. The Board will consider any offer which would make sense to the majority of the shareholders. Right now, it is above $50. One year from now, maybe $200. And you will make that decision yourself. 6. Other matters: The new Webmaster promised that the new Website will be up and running by Dec. 6th. The Enova shares must wait for the SEC approval of the Form 10. The PR campaign will be much stronger in December and January with the addition of two new firms, one here and one in Europe. The January 15th party is still on, no matter what happens with Y2K. The new girl friend is still being priced at Ebay. Life is wonderful, and everyday in Hartcourt land is a Christmas day. We are excited, grateful, studious and focus. December will be the most memorable month for Hartcourt. Nice guys will finish first.

Sincerely,

Dr. Alan V. Phan
Chairman & CEO

Gold Stake Begins Making Transactions over the Internet with eConnect's eCashPad, a secured eCommerce Payment Option and Begins Pilot Program

CUPERTINO, California, November 1, 2001 - Chris Jensen, President of Gold Stake, Inc. (The "Company"), announced that the Company has made available through it's newly released nutritional supplementation e-Commerce site the ability for distributors and individual consumers to purchase health products as well as utilize eConnects (ECNC: OTCBB) eCashPad for additional secured payment options. We have already started making transactions and generating revenues on our eCommerce website using the revolutionary new eCashPad. We have ordered 100 eCashpads for a promotion on our website (www.Goldstake.net). All orders that we receive for the month of November on our website using the eCashPad customers will receive one free bottle of the Gold Dietary Mineral Supplement for every three bottles ordered. This represents a 25% discount for our customers. We have committed to buy up to 1000 eCashpads from eConnect over the next six months and intend to sell eCashPads through our e-Commerce site for $59.95.

eConnect's eCashPad is a revolutionary e-commerce device designed to allow easier and more secure transactions on the Internet. The eCashPad easily connects to your laptop or desktop with a USB port connection and through the use of a built-in magnetic card reader allows you to use your credit card for transactions over the Internet with eCashPad-enabled merchants. This device eliminates the need to type your credit card information when making a purchase. The security of your information is as secure as using a credit card at the grocery store or gas station. eCashPad provides a direct link between your card and the bank protecting your information from theft or disclosure through its "Bank Eyes Only" transaction. The eCashPad USB also features the future services of smart card and ATM card with PIN Internet payments.

Mr. Jensen stated, "We are committed to our distributors and consumers to provide secured e-commerce transactions. We have been following eConnect for sometime now and through our testing we feel that the product provides our customers with the ability to purchase our products without being concerned about disclosing their financial information. We have found that customers are most apprehensive of buying products over the Internet due to the continuous rise in credit card fraud from the current manual entry process of payment today. We offer the eCashPad as a solution for providing secured payment transactions. Consumers will be able to purchase from our e-Commerce site the eCashPad and it will be delivered directly to their home. It's easy to install and use-features provide an attractive solution for our customers. As a web merchant I am particularly excited about the lower discount rate we pay when receiving a Bank Eyes Only credit card present purchase and am very enthusiastic about credit card with PIN usage on an eCashPad
