Radim, CORRECT: $1.5 mil done deal pending signatures, $5 mil projected for '99. The $1.5 Million is the expected revenue generated from the deals on annual basis. some of which are on hand but probably will be projected in 99 revenue instead of 98. IMO with Alan Spar on board we will see some neat additions to the web site in a shorter time. Best TMK

Yes .... I know the 1.5 mill is pending signatures....but it's not all going to come in this Q is it? I am expecting about a 1/4 of it this quarter..... Here's a WAG as to what revs. COULD look like this year....(and if anyone talks with MS or MM before I do ask and correct me if I am wrong......but it's what I am thinking is a possible scenaio based on MS saying the expected to 'realize 5 mill revenue in 99'. 1Q revenues starting - 1.5 mill contracts (on an annual basis signed - 350K revs realized) 2Q say they sign an additional 1.75 mill in annual contracts. Take your base revs from last Q, the 350K continuing to flow in from first signed contracts plus now 375K from new - total revs 2Q = 725K Addvertising is beginning say we get 25K for this (some banners on the site) total 2 Q rev 725K realized. (not quite proitable yet.) 3Q (remember this is the Q that profitability is projected) say they sign an additional 2.25 mill contracts (many people have had time to test it and are beginning to jump on....) take the 725K rev from last Q add to it 550K (from new contracts signed in 3Q). And advertising is beginning to pick up. The web site is hot. Siemens name is hot.....people want to advertise with them. Advertising gets 100K Now total revs at say 1.375 mill for 3rd Q 4 Q it's beginning to snowball now.....got the base of another 1.275 mill from contracts signed. More people want to advertise on FNTN say we get 150K this quarter for that.....say another 2.75 mill contracts signed which generate another 650K for the quarter. Revs for the 4 Q are base 1.275 mill plus 650K new plus say 150K for ads ..... 2.075 million. where does that leave us..... 1 Q revs....350K 2 Q revs....725K 3 Q revs...1275K 4 Q revs...2075K Total rev for the year is 4.425 million (very conservative figure. BUT BUT BUT we now have over 8 million going forward in annual sales....If they didn't sign another customer we would have 100 % growth the next year. What would you pay for a company growing at this rate......and MS has said they expect to recognize (not just sign 5 mill contracts this year) but recognize at least 5 million in revenues this year....our annual contracts could easily be double the 5 million figure by year end. Ahgain I am trying to be conservative. NOW..... remember thatthis is only a WAG. I have not confirmed this is how it will be ....it is only one possible scenario....I am not trying to hype but rather clarify what I think is a likely scenario...a plausible one anyway. At any rate for MS to say they expect 5 mill revs this year is proabably a lot better than many realize....it will mean a lot of contracts and this company will draw attention very fast IMO. Well, tear it apart I can see the bullets coming, Respectfully, jpbp
