THE COMPANY

Piranha is a technology-based company with a line of digital asset
management products and services being developed for sale and/or licensing.
Piranha is in the business of providing enabling technologies in the areas of
data compression, product output routing, universal file format recognition,
data manipulation and custom application feature development in both the lossy
data compression and lossless data compression market segments. Additionally,
Piranha provides digital image acquisition services which are intended to
incorporate its core data compression technologies. Piranha's data compression
software products and digital asset service are designed to enhance digital
workflow processes and improve data transfer speeds across the Internet and to
provide high quality image clarity at compression rates which the Company
believes are higher than those presently available in the marketplace on a
variety of platforms. These compression products are directed to digital images
and Internet applications such as full motion streaming video, lossless image
and text string compression, and highly compressed, high resolution static
images.

The Company's products are designed to support business-to-business,
e-commerce and Internet related activities associated with professional digital
archival storage, digital workflow optimization and advanced
business-to-consumer on-line shopping applications. Piranha technology and its
resulting application developments are expected to provide a methodology to
support the emerging e-commerce market demand for solutions to the traditional
bottlenecks and time delays associated with the e-commerce shopping experience
that the Company believes are superior to those presently available. The Company
believes that its products and services provide measurable quantatitive and
qualitative advantages over related products and services. Products currently
available include:

o Piranha Net - This web based product is expected to allow commercial
web sites to download significantly faster than what is currently
available. Piranha Net utilizes Piranha's proprietary lossless and
lossy data compression algorithms.

o Piranha Byte- This Streaming FTP lossless and modified bit "ultra high
fidelity" data compression product is used for downloading files to or
from a server or individual user. A multitude of file types can be
delivered for archival or immediate use at compression rates and data
transfer speeds substantially greater than current competitive
products. The first shipments of this product occurred during the week
of June 19, 2000.

o Piranha Stream - This product is a plug-in or browser-based full-motion
video product with several audio codecs available, including Piranha
Audio featuring low bandwidth and high quality. Piranha Stream's
advanced component input compression process produces the highest
quality streaming video in the market place. The first products using
this technology were distributed to stockholders at the annual meeting
on August 18, 2000.

Products that are expected to debut in the future:

o An e-commerce application covering transaction, data mining, and
other e-commerce disciplines.

o A product combining all Piranha technologies into one suite of tools to
handle enterprise solutions for the largest customer. This product will
include data base interfacing with Oracle and other enterprise data
warehouse software.

o An affordable software rental that offers a variety of solutions from a
full suite of products to a smaller version designed to meet the
specific needs of the customer.

o Increased processing power delivered through custom DSP chip
integration for tailored hardware/software solutions.

o An advance image database product providing multifunctional search
capabilities.

Piranha products have been developed on the Linux operating system and
have been successfully ported to Microsoft and Apple operating platforms.

1996. See, "RISK FACTORS."

RISK FACTORS

IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PROSPECTUS, THE
FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED CAREFULLY BEFORE DECIDING TO INVEST
IN COMMON STOCK. THIS PROSPECTUS CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT
INVOLVED RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER
MATERIALLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED IN THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A
RESULT OF CERTAIN FACTORS, INCLUDING THOSE SET FORTH BELOW.

LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY; HISTORY OF LOSSES AND ANTICIPATION OF FUTURE
LOSSES. While the Company was founded in 1992 it did not engage in its current
business operations until December 1999 when it became a technology-based
company through the acquisitions of IBP, Inc. and Zideo.com, Inc. and obtained
the services, among others, of its current Chief Executive Officer, President
and Chief Operating Officer, Chief Information Officer and Chief Science
Officer: Messrs. Edward W. Sample, Don Ashley, Michael Steele and Carey Lotzer.
See, "MANAGEMENT." In February 2000 the Company changed its name from Classics
International Entertainment, Inc. to Piranha, Inc. As of September 30, 2000, the
Company had an accumulated deficit of $24,319,882 and no net earnings from
operations. Accordingly, the Company has a limited operating history on which to
base an evaluation of its business and prospects.

The Company and its prospects must be considered in light of the risks,
difficulties and uncertainties encountered by companies in the early stages of
development, particularly companies operating in new and rapidly evolving
markets like the Internet. In order to achieve and sustain profitability the
Company believes that it will have to, among other things (i) successfully
develop, market and sell compression techniques that are widely accepted by the
Internet community, (ii) develop and extend the Piranha brand, (iii) obtain
broad acceptance of its products, (iv) anticipate and adapt to the developing
Internet market, (v) respond promptly and adequately to changes in laws that
could adversely affect the Company's business, (vi) provide compelling and
unique services to Internet users, (vii) effectively develop new and maintain
existing relationships with customers, (viii) continuously update its
technology, (ix) adapt to meet changes in its markets and respond to competitive
developments and (x) attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can
be no assurance that the Company will be successful in addressing these risks
and failure to do so would have a materially adverse effect on its business,
results of operations and financial condition.

For these and other reasons, and even though the Company hopes to achieve
positive cash flow for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, there can be no
assurance that this will occur or that the Company will ever achieve
profitability or, if profitability is achieved, that it will be sustained.

UNPREDICTABILITY OF FUTURE REVENUES. The Company's limited operating
history and the emerging nature of the markets in which it competes makes
prediction of future revenue growth difficult if not impossible. There can be no
assurance that the Company will generate revenue or if generated that the

Company will achieve or maintain profitability. Accordingly, the Company cannot
predict what future growth may develop, if any.

Furthermore, the market for the Company's products and the long-term
acceptance of the Internet are uncertain. The Company therefore intends to
closely monitor its operating expenses while attempting, among other things, to
(i) fund increased sales and marketing activities and (ii) develop and upgrade
technology. Such expenses are based in part on its expectations regarding future
revenues and to a substantial degree such expenses are readily ascertainable.
While the Company hopes that future quarterly results of operations will reflect
positive cash flow, if the Company is unable to increase its revenues it may be
unable to adjust spending patterns in a timely manner to compensate for any
unexpected revenue shortfall or may have to reduce its operating expenses,
causing it to forego potential revenue generating activities, either of which
could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's business, results of
operations and financial condition.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY EMPLOYEES. The Company's success will depend to a
large degree on the efforts and abilities of a few key management employees. In
particular, the Company is almost exclusively dependent on the continued
services and experience of Messrs. Sample, Ashley, Steele, Lotzer, and Berger.
The loss, incapacity or unavailability of any of these persons at the present
time or in the foreseeable future before qualified replacements were obtained
would have a materially adverse effect on the Company's future. While Messrs.
Sample, Ashley, Steele and Lotzer are covered by employment contracts with the
Company and the Company has secured key person life insurance policies on its
executive officers, competition for senior management, experienced marketing
personnel, qualified scientists and engineers and other employees is intense,
and there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in attracting
and retaining such personnel. The failure of the Company to successfully manage
its personnel requirements would have a materially adverse effect on the
Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

Furthermore, the Company may experience rapid growth, which would place
a significant strain on the Company's managerial, financial and operational
resources. The Company is required to manage multiple relationships with
numerous outside parties. These REQUIREMENTS WILL BE EXACERBATED IN THE EVENT OF
FURTHER growth of the Company or in the number of third party relationships, and
there can be no assurance that the Company's systems, procedures or controls
will be adequate to support the Company's operations or that Company management
will be able to manage any growth effectively. To effectively manage its
potential growth, the Company must continue to implement and improve its
operational, financial and management information systems and to expand, train
and manage its employee base.

The Company's management team has not worked together for any extended
period of time and are only now in the process of integrating as a cohesive
group. There can be no assurance that they will be able to work together
effectively or successfully manage any growth experienced by the Company. In

addition, while certain members of the Company's management have had previous
experience in managing public companies and/or large operating companies, such
experience has not been in the Internet industry. Accordingly, there can be no
assurance that they will quickly adapt to the Internet marketplace or that the
Company will be able to effectively manage any expansion of its operations.

INTENSE COMPETITION. The Company is in a highly competitive market. The
Company competes with major software developers as well as numerous smaller
companies producing one or more competitive products. The Company's products
compete with those of PKZip, Stuffit, WinZip, Sorensson, MPEG, Real, Cinepak,
Indeo and others. Most if not all of the Company's existing and potential
competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger
customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical and marketing
resources than the Company. Such competitors are able to undertake more
extensive marketing campaigns for their brands, adopt more aggressive pricing
policies and make more attractive offers to potential customers and employees.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete
successfully against its current or future competitors or that competition will
not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's business, results of
operations and financial condition.

Competition for Internet products and services is intense. As the
market for e-commerce grows, the Company expects that competition will
intensify. Barriers to entry are minimal and competitors can offer products and
services at a relatively low cost. The market in which Piranha competes is
significantly affected and is characterized by rapidly changing technology,
evolving industry standards, frequent new product and service announcements and
enhancements, other market activities of industry participants and changing
customer demands. Accordingly, the Company's success will depend on its ability
to adapt to such changes and its ability to continually improve the speed,
performance, features, ease of use and reliability of its products in response
to both evolving demands of the marketplace and competitive service and product
offerings. Any failure to rapidly adapt in a changing environment would have a
materially adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and
financial condition.

The Company's financial and operating success depends, among other
things, on the success of its products and services. If those products and
services fail to keep pace with the rapid changes in technology and customer and
supplier demands, the Company may not become or remain profitable. There can be
no assurance that the products and services of the Company will achieve market
acceptance or commercial success or that the Company will be successful. The
Company expects competition to persist and intensify in the future.

Company believes that its solutions currently compete favorably with respect to
several of these factors, the Company's market is relatively new and is evolving
rapidly. The Company may not be able to maintain any significant competitive
position against current and potential competitors, especially those with
significantly greater financial, marketing, service, support, technical and
other resources.

The Company continually strives to incorporate new technology into its
products. Introducing new technology involves numerous technical challenges,
substantial amounts of personnel resources and frequently requires months to
complete. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful at
integrating new technology on a timely basis or without degrading the
responsiveness and speed of its existing products or that, once integrated, such
technology will function as expected.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION AND LEGAL UNCERTAINTY. The Company is not
currently subject to direct regulation by any government agency, other than
regulations applicable to businesses generally, and there are currently few laws
or regulations directly applicable to access to or distribute information on the
Internet. However, due to the Internet's increasing popularity and use, a number
of legislative and regulatory proposals are under consideration by federal,
state, local and foreign governmental organizations, and it is possible that a
number of laws or regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet
relating to such issues as user privacy; user screening to prevent inappropriate
uses of the Internet by, for example, minors or convicted criminals; taxation;
infringement; pricing; content regulation; quality of products and services; and
intellectual property ownership and infringement. The adoption of any such laws
or regulations may decrease the growth in the use of the Internet, which could
in turn decrease the demand for the Company's products, increase the Company's
cost of doing business, or otherwise have a materially adverse effect on the
Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, the
applicability to the Internet of existing laws governing issues such as property
ownership, copyright, trademark, trade secret, obscenity, libel and personal
privacy is uncertain and developing. Any new legislation or regulation, or
application or interpretation of existing laws, could have a materially adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Communications Decency Act of 1996 (the "CDA") was enacted in 1996.
Although those sections of the CDA that, among things, proposed to impose
criminal penalties on anyone distributing indecent material to minors over the
Internet were held to be unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court, there can
be no assurance that similar laws will not be proposed and adopted in the
future. Similar types of legislation and the manner in which they may be
interpreted and enforced cannot be fully determined and could subject the
Company to potential liability. Such legislation could also impact on the growth
of the Internet generally and decrease the demand for the Company's products.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH BRAND DEVELOPMENT. The Company believes that
establishing and maintaining the Piranha brand is a critical aspect of its
business and that the importance of brand recognition will increase due to the

growing number of competitors and the minimal barriers to entry. Promotion and
enhancement of the Company's brand will depend, in part, on the Company's
success in providing a high-quality product which success cannot be ensured. If
the Company does not generate a corresponding increase in revenues as a result
of its branding efforts or otherwise fails to promote its brand successfully, or
if the Company incurs excessive expenses in an attempt to promote and maintain
its brand, its business, results of operations and financial condition will be
materially and adversely affected. If customers do not perceive the Company's
products to be of high quality or if the Company introduces products or enters
into business ventures that are not favorably received the value of the
Company's brand could be diluted.

SECURITY RISKS. The Company may experience attempts by experienced
programmers or "hackers" to penetrate the Company's network. A party who is able
to penetrate the Company's network security could misappropriate proprietary
information. Advances in computer capabilities, discoveries in the field of
cryptography and other discoveries, events, or developments could lead to a
compromise of the systems that the Company uses to protect such confidential
information. If such a compromise occurs, it could have a materially adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
The Company may be required to expend significant capital and resources to
protect against the threat of security breaches or to alleviate problems caused
by such breaches. Concerns over the security of Internet transactions and the
privacy of users may also inhibit the growth of the Internet generally,
particularly as a means of conducting commercial transactions. Security breaches
or the inadvertent transmission of computer viruses could expose the Company to
a risk of loss or litigation and possible liability. There can be no assurance
that contractual provisions attempting to limit the Company's liability in such
areas will be successful or enforceable or that other parties will accept such
contractual provisions as part of the Company's agreements, which could have a
materially adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and
financial condition.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. The Company regards its copyrights, trademarks,
trade secrets and similar intellectual property as critical to its success and
attempts to protect its rights by relying on trademark, service mark, copyright
and trade secret laws and restrictions on disclosure and transferring title and
other methods. The Company has filed trademark applications for Piranha, Piranha
Byte, Piranha Stream, Piranha Net and Piranha Web in the United States and
trademark applications for Piranha in Argentina, Australia, Bolivia, Brazil,
Canada, China, European Union, India, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Korea, Mexico,
New Zealand, Philippines, Poland, Russia, Singapore, Taiwan and Venezuela. In
addition, trademark applications are expected to be filed in several additional
overseas venues. There can be no assurance that these steps will be adequate,
the Company will be able to secure trademark registrations for all of its marks
in the United States or other countries or third parties will not infringe upon
or misappropriate the Company's copyrights, trademarks, service marks and
similar proprietary rights. The Company currently has no patents but has filed
for certain provisional patents. The Company is also examining whether further
patent protection will be sought. There can be no assurance that patents will

become a significant part of the Company's intellectual property in the
foreseeable future. Effective trademark, service mark, copyright, trade secret
and patent protection may not be available in every country in which the
Company's products may be distributed and policing unauthorized use of the
Company's proprietary information will be difficult if not impossible.

The Company generally enters into confidentiality agreements with its
employees and consultants and generally controls access to and distribution of
its documentation and other proprietary information. It may be possible for a
third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use the Company's proprietary
information without authorization to develop similar technology independently.

Legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of
protection of certain proprietary rights in Internet-related businesses are
uncertain and still evolving and no assurance can be given as to the future
viability or value of any proprietary rights of the Company or other companies
within this market. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by the
Company will prevent misappropriation or infringement of its proprietary
information. Any such infringement or misappropriation could have a materially
adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial
condition

In addition, litigation may be necessary to enforce the Company's
intellectual property rights, to protect its trade secrets or to determine the
validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Such litigation might
result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention
and could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's business, results of
operations and financial condition. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that
the Company's business activities will not infringe upon the proprietary rights
of others or that other parties will not assert infringement claims against the
Company. The Company may become subject to claims of alleged infringement of the
trademarks, service marks and other intellectual property rights of third
parties. Although no such claims have occurred to date, such claims and any
resultant litigation might subject the Company to significant liability for
damages and might result in invalidation of the Company's proprietary rights and
even if not meritorious could be time consuming and expensive to defend and
could result in the diversion of management time and attention, any of which
might have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of
operations and financial condition.

CONTINUED GROWTH OF THE INTERNET. The Company's future success is
dependent upon continued growth in the use of the Internet. There can be no
assurance that the number of Internet users will continue to grow or that
commerce over the Internet will become more widespread. As is typical in the
case of a new and rapidly evolving industry, demand and market acceptance for
recently introduced services are subject to a high level of uncertainty. The
Internet may not prove to be a viable commercial marketplace for a number of
reasons, including lack of acceptable security technologies, lack of access and
ease of use, congestion of traffic, inconsistent quality of service, lack of
availability of cost-effective service, potentially inadequate development of
the necessary infrastructure, excessive governmental regulation, uncertainty

regarding intellectual property ownership or timely development and
commercialization of performance improvements.

The Company's success will depend in large part upon the continued
development of the Internet as a reliable network with the necessary security
and timely development of complementary products such as high speed modems for
providing reliable access. Because global commerce and online exchange of
information on the Internet and other similar open wide area networks are new
and evolving, it is difficult to predict with any assurance whether the Internet
will support increasing use or will prove to be a viable commercial marketplace.
The Internet has experienced and is expected to continue to experience
significant growth in the number of users and the amount of content. To the
extent that the Internet continues to experience increased numbers of users,
frequency of use or increased bandwidth requirements of users, there can be no
assurance that the Internet infrastructure will continue to be able to support
the demands placed on it by this continued growth or that the performance or
reliability of the Internet will not be adversely affected by this continued
growth. In addition, the Internet could lose its viability or effectiveness due
to delays and the development or adoption of new standards and protocols to
handle increased levels of activities or due to increased government regulation.
There can be no assurance that the infrastructure or complementary products or
services necessary to make the Internet a viable commercial marketplace will be
developed, or, if they are developed, that the Internet will achieve broadening
acceptance. If the necessary infrastructure standards, protocols or
complementary products, services or facilities are not developed, or if the
Internet does not become a viable commercial marketplace, the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially
adversely affected. Even if such infrastructure, standards or protocols or
complementary products, services or facilities are developed and the Internet
becomes a viable commercial marketplace, there can be no assurance that the
Company will not be required to incur substantial expenditures in order to adapt
its products to the ever-changing technologies, which could have a materially
adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial
condition.

RELIANCE ON THE INTERNET BEING AN EFFECTIVE INFORMATION DISTRIBUTION
METHOD. One of the Companies primary assumptions is that the Internet will
increasingly become a viable method of distributing information whether in the
form of raw data, media and/or advertising. The Company is therefore highly
dependent on the Internet continuing to develop as a major information
distribution channel. However, the Internet has not been in existence for a
sufficient period of time to gauge its effectiveness as compared with
traditional distribution channels such as hard copy and telecommunications. Many
of the Company's prospective clients are believed to have only limited
experience with the Internet as an information distribution medium, have not yet
devoted a significant portion of their budgets to Internet-based distribution
and may not find such a method to be effective for distributing information or
promoting their products and services relative to traditional approaches.

The adoption of Internet-based information distribution methods,
particularly by those entities that have historically relied upon traditional

methods, requires the acceptance of a new way of conducting business and
exchanging information. Entities that already have invested substantial
resources in other methods of doing so may be reluctant to adopt a new strategy
that may limit or compete with their existing efforts. There can be no assurance
that the market for Internet-based information distribution will continue to
emerge or become sustainable. If the market develops more slowly than expected,
the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition could be
materially and adversely affected. Further, no established standards have been
widely accepted for the measurement of the effectiveness of Internet-based
information distribution and there can be no assurance that such standards will
develop sufficiently to support the Internet as an effective alternative. There
can be no assurance that prospective clients will accept the Company's or other
third-party measurement standards, which could have a materially adverse effect
on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

CONTROL BY CERTAIN STOCKHOLDERS. The Company's directors and executive
officers beneficially own approximately 39% of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock. As a result, these stockholders, if they act as a group, have a
significant influence on all matters requiring stockholder approval, including
the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions.
Such control may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control
of the Company, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business
combination involving the Company or discourage a potential acquiror from making
a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company which
could have a materially adverse effect on the market price of the Company's
Common Stock.

FUTURE CAPITAL NEEDS; UNCERTAINTY OF FUTURE ADDITIONAL FINANCING. The
Company currently anticipates that its available funds and resources, including
product sales which commenced the week of June 19, 2000, will be sufficient to
meet its anticipated needs for working capital and capital expenditures for the
next twelve months. The Company may need to raise additional funds in the future
in order to fund more aggressive brand promotion and more rapid expansion, to
develop new or enhanced products, to respond to competitive pressures or to
acquire complementary businesses or technologies. If additional funds are raised
through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage
ownership of the stockholders of the Company will be reduced, stockholders may
experience dilution and such securities may have rights, preferences or
privileges senior to those of the rights of the Company's Common Stock. There
can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms
favorable to the Company, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or not
available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to fund its
expansion, promote its brand names as the Company desires, take advantage of
unanticipated acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance products or respond
to competitive pressures. Any such inability could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

ACQUISITION RISKS. As part of its business strategy, the Company
expects to pursue the acquisition of businesses, services or technologies to

complement its existing business and/or enhance its technological capabilities.
There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to locate
suitable acquisition opportunities. Future acquisitions by the Company could
result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, large and
immediate write-offs, the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities or
amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets, any of
which could materially and adversely affect the Company's results of operations.
Furthermore, acquisitions entail numerous risks and uncertainties, including
difficulties in the assimilation of operations, personnel, technologies,
products and the information systems of the acquired companies, diversion of
management's attention from other business concerns, risks of entering
geographic and business markets in which the Company has no or limited prior
experience and potential loss of key employees of acquired organizations. The
Company has made several material acquisitions in the recent past. No assurance
can be given as to the ability of the Company to successfully integrate any
businesses, products, technologies or personnel that might be acquired in the
future, and the failure of the Company to do so could have a materially adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION. The Company may determine to expand its
international operations. To do so the Company would likely have to enter into
relationships with foreign business partners. This strategy contains risks,
including difficulty in managing international operations due to distance,
language and cultural differences; inability to successfully market and operate
services in foreign markets; need to implement business strategy quickly in
international markets to obtain a significant share of the market; and the need
to quickly react to changing international standards. There are also risks
inherent in doing business on an international level, including unexpected
changes in regulatory requirements; trade barriers; difficulties in staffing and
managing foreign operations; fluctuations in currency exchange rates and the
introduction of the euro; longer payment cycles in general; problems in
collecting accounts receivable; difficulty in enforcing contracts; political and
economic instability; seasonal reductions in business activity in certain other
parts of the world; and potentially adverse tax consequences.

LIMITED PUBLIC MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK; VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE.
Prior to this offering there has been only a limited public market for shares of
Company Common Stock in the over-the-counter market. There can be no assurance
that a more active trading market for the Common Stock will develop or be
sustained.

Trading in the Company's Common Stock has been subject to wide
fluctuations in price and such fluctuations are expected to continue in response
to numerous factors such as variations in the Company's results of operations,
changes in earnings estimates, announcements of technological innovations or new
solutions by the Company or its competitors, general conditions in the
technology Internet sectors and in Internet-related industries, the operating
and stock price performance of other companies that investors may deem
comparable, news relating to trends in the Company's markets and other risk
factors discussed elsewhere herein and other events or factors, many of which
are beyond the Company's control.

In addition, the stock market in general and the technology and
Internet sectors in particular have recently experienced extreme price and
volume fluctuations which have affected the market price for many companies in
industries similar or related to that of the Company and which have been
unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. These market
fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, may
have a materially adverse effect on the market price of the Company's Common
Stock. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a
company's securities, securities class action litigation has often been
instituted against such companies. Such litigation, if instituted, and
irrespective of the outcome of such litigation, could result in substantial
costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources and have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and
financial condition.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE. Sales of significant amounts of Common
Stock in the public market after the offering or the perception that such sales
will occur could materially and adversely affect the market price of the Common
Stock or the future ability of the Company to raise capital through an offering
of its equity securities. Of the 11,292,476 shares of Common Stock issued and
outstanding as of November 30, 2000 (which excludes 800,000 of the shares
covered by this Registraton Statement which have been authorized for issuance
but not yet issued), 6,683,717 are eligible for immediate sale in the public
market without restriction (after giving effect to this Registration Statement).
The remaining 4,608,759 shares of Common Stock (including 75,862 of the shares
covered hereby until this Registration Statement is effective) are "restricted
securities" as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
Restricted securities may be sold in the public market only if registered or if
they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rules 144, 144(k) or 701
promulgated under the Securities Act. If a large number of these restricted
shares become free of their restrictions and are sold in the public market such
sales could have a materially adverse effect on the market price for the
Company's Common Stock.

ABSENCE OF DIVIDENDS. The Company does not anticipate paying any cash
dividends in the foreseeable future. See, "DIVIDEND POLICY."

stockholders of record. As of November 30, 2000 there were 11,292,496 shares of
Common Stock issued and outstanding.

DIVIDEND POLICY

The Company has never paid cash dividends on its Common Stock and has
no present intention to pay cash dividends. In addition, the Company's
outstanding preferred stock prohibits the payment of cash dividends on its
Common Stock. It is the Company's intention to retain earnings to finance the
expansion of its business.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sales of the
Common Stock by the selling stockholders. See "Selling Stockholders" for those
holders of Company equity securities entitled to receive net proceeds from the
sales of the Common Stock. Any proceeds received by the Company would be added
to working capital. The selling stockholders will receive all of the net
proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock pursuant to this Prospectus. See,
"DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK."

MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATION FOR THE NEXT TWELVE MONTHS

workflow processes and improve data transfer speeds across the Internet and to
provide high quality image clarity at compression rates which the Company
believes are higher than those presently available in the marketplace on a
variety of platforms. These compression products are directed to digital images
and Internet applications such as full motion streaming video, lossless image
and text string compression, and highly compressed, high resolution static
images.

The Company needs to raise funds in the next twelve months in order to
meet its cash requirements and fund its current operations as well as to engage
in more aggressive brand promotion and more rapid expansion, to develop new or
enhanced products, to respond to competitive pressures or to acquire
complementary businesses or technologies. If additional funds are raised through
the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership
of the stockholders of the Company will be reduced, stockholders may experience
dilution and such securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior
to those of the rights of the Company's Common Stock. There can be no assurance
that additional financing will be available on terms favorable to the Company,
or at all. If adequate funds are not available or not available on acceptable
terms, the Company may not be able to meet its cash requirements and fund its
current operations as well as to engage in more aggressive brand promotion and
more rapid expansion, to develop new or enhanced products, to respond to
competitive pressures or to acquire complementary businesses or technologies.
Any such inability would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Company is continuously involved in the development of new products
and related technology. The Company's products are designed to support
business-to-business, e-commerce and Internet related activities associated with
professional digital archival storage, digital workflow optimization and
advanced business-to-consumer on-line shopping applications. Piranha technology
and its resulting application developments are expected to provide a methodology
to support the emerging e-commerce market demand for solutions to the
traditional bottlenecks and time delays associated with the e-commerce shopping
experience that the Company believes are superior to those presently available.
The Company believes that its products and services provide measurable
quantatitive and qualitative advantages over related products and services. For
products currently under development see "BUSINESS."

The Company may experience rapid growth, which would place a
significant strain on the Company's managerial, financial and operational
resources. The Company is required to manage multiple relationships with
numerous outside parties. These requirements WILL BE EXACERBATED IN THE EVENT OF
FURTHER growth of the Company or in the number of third party relationships, and
there can be no assurance that the Company's systems, procedures or controls
will be adequate to support the Company's operations or that Company management
will be able to manage any growth effectively. To effectively manage its
potential growth, the Company must continue to implement and improve its
operational, financial and management information systems and to expand, train
and manage its employee base.

To date, the Company has not incurred any significant problems associated
with the inability of software applications and operational programs not
properly recognizing calendar dates in the year 2000 in the following areas: (1)
accounting and reporting systems, (2) office automation and contact management
software, (3) systems of third party vendors incorporated into the Company's
developmental products, and (4) the Company's developmental products.

BUSINESS

The Company was formed in 1992. From 1996 through November 1999 the Company
essentially was a non-operating entity, even though two of its four prior
subsidiaries (First Classics, Inc. and Classics Media Group, Inc.) remain in
existence. Beginning with the acquisition of Zideo.com, Inc. on December 8, 1999
and IBP, Inc. on December 30, 1999, the Company effectively changed its business
operations. In February 2000 it changed its name to Piranha, Inc., effected a
1:3.49 reverse stock split and increased its authorized Common Stock to 100
million shares.

Products that are expected to debut in the future:

o An e-commerce application covering transaction, data mining, and
other e-commerce disciplines.

o An affordable software rental that offers a variety of solutions from a
full suite of products to a smaller version designed to meet the
specific needs of the customer.

o Increased processing power delivered through custom DSP chip
integration for tailored hardware/software solutions.

o An advance image database product providing multifunctional search
capabilities.

Piranha products have been developed on the Linux operating system and
have been successfully ported to Microsoft and Apple operating platforms.

The Company maintains three separate websites:

o www.piranha.com for investor and general Company information.

o www.zideo.com for Internet-related activities.

o www.impact-s.com for the pre-press, printing and publishing industries.

Piranha believes that it is different from current industry leaders in
that it is a solutions-based organization not limited to a specific operating
platform, to a specific type of data file or to either video or audio or
lossless or lossy sciences.

Market Need

The Company's product and service line is intended to fill what the
Company believes to be a market need for digital image acquisition, data
compression, product output routing, custom user interfaces, and universal file
format recognition with particular applicability in five distinct problem areas:

o Bandwidth Limitations: data pipes are too small to accommodate huge
multi-format data files. This is most notable in the critical areas of
video, audio, and high resolution graphics and pictures.

o Digital Storage Limitations: vast amounts of audio, video, text and
graphics have been converted from their original analog state to more
manageable digital storage files. This conversion from analog to
digital has created enormous data storage requirements.

o Data Transmission Speed: more speed, the most common cry in cyberspace.
Ideally, large pipes and small data files would result in lightning
speeds. In actuality consumers have small pipes and huge data files
resulting in very slow data communication rates.

o Security Concerns: digital information must be safely stored, securely
transmitted and accessible to encryption or safeguarding to protect
privacy and provide assurances of safety.

o Data Routing: ability to easily control the asset delivery and archival
process with definable network and Internet delivery addresses.

The Company believes that a technology focusing on "digital asset
management" will address each of these five major challenges and believes that
its preliminary demonstrations have reflected significant improvements over the
technologies of current industry leaders.

Market Segments

Digital Workflow Solutions

The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Impact Solutions, Inc., focuses
upon providing digital workflow solutions specifically directed toward lossless
and modified bit "ultra high fidelity" data compression sciences for the
pre-press, printing and publishing industries. Over the last decade these
industries have started to consider moving away from traditional consumable
materials to digital file handling. Certain printing and publishing industry

organizations such as Time, Inc., R.R. Donnelley and Sons, Quad/Graphics, Inc.
and Quebecor World have begun utilizing digital workflows in the last several
years. Certain publications are using digital solutions to produce most, if not
all, of their product.

The Company estimates, however, that less than one-fourth of the pages
produced by publications such as news magazines are digital. The Company
believes that factors such as cost and evolving technologies will accelerate the
movement to the digital world within three to five years but that file size,
storage size, transmission costs and security concerns are major impediments.
Piranha's expectations are that its compression technology will overcome certain
if not all of these hurdles.

The Company also believes that any technology it develops will be
useful in other industries, such as medical imaging technology (which needs to
assemble, track, transmit, archive and often output high resolution x-ray,
sonograms and other application-critical high fidelity images in a secure
environment) as well as the financial, government, insurance and real estate
industries (which require large document storage capabilities) and the banking
and financial services industries (which require business to business support
for their transactional services).

Major competitors in this market segment are believed to be PKZip,
Aladdin Industries, Inc. and document workflows presented by such companies as
Adobe, AGFA and Heidelberg.

As a result of the acquisition of JJT, Inc., Impact Solutions also
operates a digital image capture service. JJT, Inc. provides digital image
archive services for several clients including the United States Library of
Congress, the New York Public Library and the University of Texas at Austin.

Digital Distribution Solutions

Zideo.com, Inc., another Piranha subsidiary, is the Company's
Internet-directed sales and marketing organization that utilizes Piranha
technologies to provide a streaming media encoding service bureau for such
source material as music videos, movie trailers, pay-per-view movies,
educational content, e-greeting cards, gaming, video conferencing, e-commerce,
and research and development for the entertainment industry.

The Company believes its technology is suitable for streaming and
downloading audio and video on-demand at ratios and resolution qualities
previously not available. Zideo.com is also seeking to satisfy emerging needs in
the security, video-conferencing and distance learning arenas.

Zideo.com is currently engaged in the following pre-marketing efforts:

o Film & Video - Zideo.com is soliciting content providers with
materials ranging from movie trailers to independent films for

encoding services utilizing the Piranha Stream streaming
audio/video solution. The Company believes that Piranha Stream
provides a qualitative and quantitative improvement over the
current industry leaders, Sorensson, Fronhoeffer and MPEG 4.

o Web pages - Piranha products are also expected to be applicable to
on-line web page development of graphic, animation or image
presentations. The multiple discipline approach of Piranha Net is
expected to allow for significantly increased download speeds and
dramatically reduced files sizes.

In addition, Zideo.com expects to continue development of technology that can be
applied to the Internet in the computer games area.

The Zideo.com web site uses Cobalt RAQ3 web servers on twin OC3 backbones,
with a top tier connection. The Internet service provider is The Planet.com.

Business Development

In December 1999 the Company acquired all of the capital stock of
Zideo.com, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Digibyte Corporation, an Illinois
corporation, for cash in the aggregate amount of $750,000. The Company acquired
Zideo in order to obtain certain licensing rights to technology owned by
DigiByte as well as to obtain the Zideo.com brandname and the acquisition of
certain personnel associated with Zideo and DigiByte including Messrs. Sample,
Ashley and Mr. Larry Greybill.

In December 1999, the Company acquired all of the capital stock of IBP,
Inc., a privately-held corporation owned by Messrs. Steele and Lotzer, the
Company's Chief Information Officer and Chief Science Officer, respectively. The
Company's acquired IBP to obtain certain technology regarding proprietary
lossless and lossy data compression algorithms. None of the technology was
subject to a patent or trademark.

In connection with the acquisition Messrs. Lotzer and Steele entered into
employment agreements with the Company. Mr. Lotzer entered into a two-year
employment contract at an annual salary of $150,000 in year one and $200,000 in
year two. Mr. Lotzer is the Company's Chief Science Officer and is expected to
be appointed to the Board of Directors in an annual alternation with Mr. Steele
at some time in the future. Mr. Steele entered into a two-year employment
contract at an annual salary of $150,000 per year. Mr. Steele is the Company's
Chief Information Officer and has been appointed to the Board of Directors in an
annual alternation with Mr. Lotzer.

In February 2000 the Company acquired the services of Edward Falk, Robert
Newton, Craig Westveer, Thomas Lenartz and Kevin Rahe through the acquisition of
Grand Rapids Science Group, Inc. (now known as Rogue River Software Group,
Inc.). The purpose of the acquisition was to add to the expertise of the
Company's science group in the areas of graphic arts, image processing, color
sciences and database design and modeling.

In March 2000 the Company purchased all ordinary shares of Online Marketing
(UK) Ltd. from Mr. Alan Fairnington and Mr. Joseph H. Sherrill, Jr. The primary
purpose of the acquisition was to obtain the services of Messrs. Fairnington.
Mr. Sherrill is currently an independent director of the Company.

In October 2000 the Company purchased all of the outstanding shares of
Comsight Imaging, Inc. and acquired the services of Dr. Xiaolin Wu. The Company
entered into a three-year employment contract with Dr. Wu as Director of
Research and Development. Dr. Wu receives a base annual salary of $160,000.

In November 2000 the Company acquired the business and assets of JJT, Inc.
The primary purpose of this acquisition was to obtain the imaging technology of
JJT, Inc. and the services of Mr. John T. Stokes.

See, "MANAGEMENT."

Competition

The Company is in a highly competitive market. The Company competes with
major software developers as well as numerous smaller companies producing one or
more competitive products. The Company's products compete with those of PKZip,
Stuffit, WinZip, Sorensson, MPEG, Real, Cinepak, Indeo and others. Most if not
all of the Company's existing and potential competitors have longer operating
histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly
greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the Company. Such
competitors are able to undertake more extensive marketing campaigns for their
brands, adopt more aggressive pricing policies and make more attractive offers
to potential customers and employees. Accordingly, there can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to compete successfully against its current or
future competitors or that competition will not have a materially adverse effect
on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

Competition for Internet products and services is intense. As the market
for e-commerce grows, the Company expects that competition will intensify.
Barriers to entry are minimal, and competitors can offer products and services
at a relatively low cost. The market in which the Company competes is
significantly affected and is characterized by rapidly changing technology,
evolving industry standards, frequent new product and service announcements and
enhancements, other market activities of industry participants and changing
customer demands. Accordingly, the Company's success will depend on its ability
to adapt to such changes and its ability to continually improve the speed,
performance, features, ease of use and reliability of its products in response
to both evolving demands of the marketplace and competitive service and product
offerings. Any failure to rapidly adapt in a changing environment would have a
materially adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and
financial condition.

The Company believes that the principal competitive factors affecting
companies seeking to develop, market and sell compression technology are
critical mass, technical competence, market acceptability, functionality, brand
recognition, market include speed of implementation, price, knowledge of the
industry, core technology, ability to implement a solution with existing
technology and financial capacity of its potential customers. Although the
Company believes that its solutions currently compete favorably with respect to
several of these factors, the Company's market is relatively new and is evolving
rapidly. The Company may not be able to maintain any significant competitive
position against current and potential competitors, especially those with
significantly greater financial, marketing, service, support, technical and
other resources.

Intellectual Property

The Company regards its copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and
similar intellectual property as critical to its success and attempts to protect
its rights by relying on trademark, service mark, copyright and trade secret
laws and restrictions on disclosure and transferring title and other methods.
The Company has filed United States trademark applications for Piranha, Piranha
Byte, Piranha Stream, Piranha Net, Piranha Web, Webbot, Netbot and trademark
applications for Piranha in numerous overseas venues. There can be no assurance
that these steps will be adequate, that the Company will be able to secure
trademark registrations for all of its marks in the United States or other
countries or that third parties will not infringe upon or misappropriate the
Company's copyrights, trademarks, service marks and similar proprietary rights.
The Company currently has no patents but has filed for certain provisional
patents. The Company is also examining whether further patent protection will be
sought. There can be no assurance that patents will become a significant part of
the Company's intellectual property in the foreseeable future. Effective
trademark, service mark, copyright, trade secret and patent protection may not
be available in every country in which the Company's products may be distributed
and policing unauthorized use of the Company's proprietary information will be
difficult if not impossible.

Government Regulation and Legal Uncertainty

The Company is not currently subject to direct regulation by any
government agency, other than regulations applicable to businesses generally,
and there are currently few laws or regulations directly applicable to access to
or distribute information on the Internet. However, due to the Internet's
increasing popularity and use, a number of legislative and regulatory proposals
are under consideration by federal, state, local and foreign governmental
organizations, and it is possible that a number of laws or regulations may be
adopted with respect to the Internet relating to such issues as user privacy;
user screening to prevent inappropriate uses of the Internet by, for example,
minors or convicted criminals; taxation; infringement; pricing; content
regulation; quality of products and services; and intellectual property
ownership and infringement. The adoption of any such laws or regulations may
decrease the growth in the use of the Internet, which could in turn decrease the
demand for the Company's products, increase the Company's cost of doing
business, or otherwise have a materially adverse effect on the Company's

business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, the
applicability to the Internet of existing laws governing issues such as property
ownership, copyright, trademark, trade secret, obscenity, libel and personal
privacy is uncertain and developing. Any new legislation or regulation, or
application or interpretation of existing laws, could have a materially adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

Properties

The Company's principal executive offices are located at 2425 N.
Central Expressway, Suite 480, Richardson, Texas 75080. Its principal financial
offices are located at 33 North LaSalle Street, 33rd Floor, Chicago, Illinois
60602. Its research and development facilities are located in Richardson, Texas
and additional research and development offices are located in Grand Rapids,
Michigan. Sales and marketing activities are conducted throughout the Company's
various offices and its Impact Solutions, Inc. and Zideo.com, Inc. subsidiaries
located in Freehold, New Jersey, London, England and Richardson, Texas.

Legal Proceedings

In July 1994, the Company discharged four officers of its Dream Factory
subsidiary. The officers who were discharged commenced actions against the
Company seeking damages arising out of the alleged wrongful termination of their
employment. The Company subsequently settled the claims of two of the officers.
The Company has from time to time been engaged in settlement negotiations with
the two remaining officers, a husband and wife, and has accrued a provision of
$700,000 in its consolidated financial statements. No settlement negotiations
are currently taking place and the Company is preparing to go to trial in early
2001. The remaining cases are pending in Connecticut state court.

2000, LeCompte filed an action against the Company in the Circuit Court of Cook
County, Illinois, asserting substantially the same claims as in the case which
was dismissed. That action was dismissed on October 18, 2000. Subsequently an
amended complaint was filed. The Company believes this action is without merit,
has filed another motion to dismiss and intends to vigorously defend itself in
this matter.

Employees

As of December 11, 2000, the Company employed 68 full-time employees,
31 of whom were employed in research and development, 16 in sales and marketing
and 21 in general and administrative capacities. None of the Company's employees
are subject to collective bargaining agreements and the Company considers its
relationships with its employees to be good.

not have preemptive rights. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive
ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the
Board of Directors in its sole discretion from funds legally available therefor.
Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the holders of
shares of Common Stock would be entitled to share ratably in the distribution of
all of the Company's assets remaining available for distribution after
satisfaction of all of its liabilities and obligations. The Company has not
declared or paid any cash dividends on its capital stock since its inception and
does not expect to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. The
Company currently intends to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the

to be payable on the Common Stock unless dividends are paid in full on any then
outstanding preferred stock and all sinking fund obligations for any then

liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the outstanding shares of any then
outstanding preferred stock would have priority over the Common Stock to receive
the amount specified in each particular series out of the remaining assets of
the Company. Any future issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of
deferring, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company, or
decreasing the market price of the Common Stock, and may adversely affect the
voting and other rights of the holders of Common Stock.

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 AND 1998
1. THE COMPANY
Piranha, Inc. (previously known as Classics International
Entertainment, Inc.) (the "Company") was incorporated under the
laws of the State of Delaware on November 20, 1992. By 1994, the
Company had four subsidiaries: Moondog's, Inc., which on August
5, 1997, filed for protection under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy
laws; Dream Factory, Inc., which on May 2, 1996, filed for
protection under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Laws; First
Classics, Inc., the holder of a license for the exclusive use of
the Classics Illustrated copyrights, trade names and other
intangibles, excluding non-print media rights; and Classics Media
Group, Inc., the exclusive licensee of the Classics Illustrated
properties for non-print media purposes.

The Dream Factory, Inc. and Moondog's, Inc. Bankruptcy cases
were brought to closure in September, 1996 and January, 1997,
respectively. First Classics, Inc. has limited activity, while
Classics Media Group, Inc. is currently dormant.

The Company essentially has been a non-operating entity
since it discontinued its operations at the end of 1996.
Beginning with the acquisition of Zideo on December 8, 1999 and
IBP, Inc. on December 30, 1999, the Company effectively changed
its business emphasis.

Upon changing its name to Piranha, Inc.(TM), the Company has
become a technology company with a line of digital asset
management products being developed for sale and/or licensing.
The data compression software products under the new Piranha(TM)
brand are designed to improve Internet speed and to provide image
clarity at high compression rates.

In January, 2000 the Board of Directors received written
consents from a majority of stockholders authorizing (i) a change
in the name from Classics International Entertainment Inc. to
Piranha, Inc., (ii) an increase in the authorized Common Stock
from 30,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares, and (iii) a reverse
stock split so that each 3.49 outstanding shares were converted
into one share of Common Stock outstanding.

Through February 25, 2000 quotes for the Company's Common
Stock were available under the symbol CIEI. Effective with the
Reverse Stock Split on February 28, 2000, quotes for the
Company's Common Stock were available under the symbol BYTE.
These financial statements and the notes herein give retroactive
effect to the reverse stock split.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a. Principles of consolidation - The accompanying
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

b. 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 amounts reported in the financial statements and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

c. Net Income (Loss) Per Share - Basic income (loss) per
share was computed using the weighted average number of shares of
outstanding common stock. Diluted per share amounts when
applicable also include the effect of dilutive common stock
equivalents from the assumed exercise of stock options.

d. Income Taxes - Income taxes are accounted for under
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes", which is an asset and liability approach that
requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities
for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been
recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns.

e. Amortization of Intangibles - Amortization of the
algorithms underlying the acquired intellectual property/trade
secrets, as well as the brand name, and other trade secrets and
intangibles, are recognized over a five year period beginning in
the month of first commercial application.

f. Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is stated
at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives. Depreciation expense for the
years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 was $422 and $0,
respectively.
F-7

g. Long-lived Assets - The Company reviews long-lived assets
for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such
that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be
recovered. At December 31, 1999 the Company believes that there
has been no impairment of its long-lived assets.

h. Stock Based Compensation - The Company accounts for its
stock option plan under APB Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees," ("APB 25"). The Company has also adopted
Statement of Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock
Based Compensation," (SFAS 123 ) for disclosure purposes, and has
adopted the proforma disclosure requirements of SFAS 123, which
was not applicable in 1999 and 1998.

3. ACQUISITIONS

a. ACQUISITION OF IBP, INC.

On December 30, 1999, the Company acquired all of the capital
stock of IBP through a merger of its subsidiary with and into IBP. As
a result of the acquisition, IBP became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company. The two stockholders of IBP received an aggregate of
1,000,000 shares of Common Stock in exchange for all of the
outstanding capital stock of IBP. The purchase price of $10,788,125
consisted of the assumption of liabilities in the amount of $100,000
and the issuance of the aforementioned stock, valued at $10,688,125.

In connection with the acquisition, the Company entered into a
two year employment agreement with each of the selling stockholders of
IBP at an annual salary to each individual of $150,000 in the first
year and $200,000 in the second year. In addition, the Company
committed to grant the sellers options to purchase an aggregate of
400,000 performance based stock options at the strike price of $1.35
per share as well as 200,000 incentive based stock options at a strike
price of $5.00 per share. The options, when granted, may result in
compensation expense being recorded to the extent the market price,
when granted, exceeds the excise price.

F-8

b. ACQUISITION OF ZIDEO.COM, INC.

On December 8, 1999 the Company acquired all of the capital stock
of Zideo.com, Inc. ("Zideo") from DigiByte Corporation ("DigiByte") of
Chicago, Illinois. The purchase price of $750,000 consisted of cash in
the amount of $250,000 and a note for $500,000, of which $100,000 was
paid by December 31, 1999; the balance was paid in full as of February
16, 2000.

The aforementioned acquisitions resulted in the Company
acquiring intangible assets consisting of data compression technology
of approximately $11,5000. The acquired companies had no previous
revenue nor net income or loss and therefore pro forma financial
information as if the companies were combined at the beginning of 1998
are not presented.

4. ACCRUED LIABILITIES

At December 31, 1999, accrued liabilities consisted of the
following:

Consulting fees $ 134,583

TOTAL $ 2,012,488 555,950
========= =======

At December 31, 1999, the Company had 555,950 common shares
reserved for issuance upon conversion of Preferred Stock.

7. EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN

In November 1992, the Company adopted the 1992 Employee Stock
Option Plan (the "Option Plan"). The Option Plan provides for the grant
of options to qualified employees (including officers and directors) of
the Company to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of Common
Stock. The Option Plan is administered by the Board of Directors or a
committee of the Board of Directors (the "Option Committee") whose
members are not entitled to receive options under the Option Plan. The
Option Committee has complete discretion to select the optionee and to
establish the terms and conditions of each option, subject to the
provisions of the Option Plan. Options granted under the Option Plan
may or may not be "incentive stock options" as defined in Section 422
of the Code ("Incentive Options") depending upon the terms established
by the Option Committee at the time of grant, but the exercise price of
options may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the
Company's Common Stock as of the date of grant (110% of the fair market
value if the grant is an Incentive Option to an employee who owns more
than 10% of the outstanding Common Stock). Options may not be exercised
more than ten years after the grant. Options granted under the Option
Plan are not transferable and may be exercised only by the respective
grantees during their lifetimes or by their heirs, executors or
administrators in the event of death. Under the Option Plan, shares
subject to canceled or terminated options are reserved for subsequently
granted options. The number of options outstanding and the exercise
price thereof are subject to adjustment in the case of certain
transactions such as mergers, recapitalizations, stock splits or stock
dividends. No options are outstanding as of December 31, 1999.

F-10

8. INCOME TAXES

The following is a reconciliation of income taxes and amounts
computed using the U.S. Federal statutory rate and the effective tax
rate for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998:

1999 1998
---------- -------

Consolidated pre-tax income (loss) $(1,054,000) $ (197,000)
========== ========

Tax (benefit) at Federal statutory rate 369,000 69,000

Effect of permanent differences 8,000 0

Effect of temporary differences 277,000 6,000

Tax benefit not recognized 654,000 75,000
-------- -------
Taxes per financial statements $ - $ -
======== =======

The Company has adopted Statements of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Under this standard,
the Company records as an asset its net operating loss carryforward
("NOL") based upon current tax returns, and establishes a valuation
allowance to the extent of any NOL which will not be utilized in the
foreseeable future.

At this time, the Company can not reliably predict future
profitability. Accordingly, the deferred tax asset has been reduced in
its entirety by the valuation allowance.

As of December 31, 1999, the Company had net operating loss
carry forwards of approximately $14,600,000 expiring beginning in the
year 2007. A significant portion of these carry forwards are subject to
limitations on annual utilization due to "equity structure shifts" or
"owner shifts" involving "5 percent stockholders" (as defined in the
Internal Revenue Code), which result in more than a 50 percent change
in ownership.

9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company was provided with office and administrative
facilities under an informal arrangement with a principal shareholder.
Amounts charged to operations for such services in 1999 and 1998 were
$7,500 and $10,500, respectively.

F-11

10. LICENSE AGREEMENTS

The Company has the exclusive and perpetual right to use
certain trade names, copyrights, logos, trademarks and other intangible
property related to Classics Illustrated and Classics Illustrated
Juniors. The Company is obligated to remit royalties ranging from 3
percent to 10 percent, with a minimum of $3,000 per annum, of revenues
derived from such rights.

11. LITIGATION

In July 1994, the Company discharged four officers of its
Dream Factory subsidiary. The officers who were discharged commenced an
action against the Company seeking damages arising out of the alleged
wrongful termination of their employment. The Company subsequently
settled the claims of two officers for $600,000. The Company is
currently engaged in settlement negotiations with the remaining
officers, and has accrued a provision of $700,000 in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements, but will vigorously defend this case
in the absence of a settlement, and believes that it is without merit.

The Company was a defendant in the case of Benjamin B.
LeCompte, III v. Classics International Entertainment, Inc., in the
United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois,
Eastern Division. This case involved a claim by LeCompte that the
Company owed him 573,066 shares of Common Stock pursuant to an alleged
conversion of a promissory note into said shares. The note, in the
principal amount of $200,000, and the accrued interest thereon, are
included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As of
April 3, 2000 this case has been dismissed for a lack of jurisdiction.

12. EXTRAORDINARY GAIN - EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT

In January 1998, Moondog's bankruptcy case was closed
resulting in the cancellation of liabilities of $218,515. The
transaction is reflected in the 1998 financial statements as an
extraordinary gain from the extinguishment of debt.

In October 1999, the Company settled certain outstanding
accounts payable for $15,000, resulting in an extraordinary gain of
$51,132 from the extinguishment of debt.

13. STOCK SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVABLE

Stock subscriptions receivable at December 31, 1999 of $800,000,
were collected in full as of March 14, 2000.

14. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

The company maintained cash balances in excess of the Federally
insured ("FDIC") limit of $100,000. Such excess approximated $230,000
at December 31, 1999.

15. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On March 23, 2000, 851,421 shares of Common Stock were issued
upon the exercise of warrants. There are additional warrants
outstanding which provide for the issuance of 143,267 shares, upon
exercise, at a price of $1.74 per share. These warrants expire in
February 2001.

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

The accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments which,
in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented. The
results of operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results attainable for a full fiscal year.

These statements have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. Certain

NOTE 2 - LITIGATION

In July 1994, the Company discharged four officers of its Dream Factory
subsidiary. The officers who were discharged commenced actions against the
Company seeking damages arising out of the alleged wrongful termination of their
employment. The Company subsequently settled the claims of two of the officers.
The Company has from time to time been engaged in settlement negotiations with
the two remaining officers, a husband and wife, and has accrued a provision of
$700,000 in its consolidated financial statements. No settlement negotiations
are currently taking place and the Company is preparing to go to trial in early
2001. These remaining cases are pending in Connecticut state court.

The Company was a defendant in the case of Benjamin B. LeCompte, III, a
stockholder, v. Classics International Entertainment, Inc., in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division. This
case involved a claim by LeCompte that the Company owed him 573,066 shares of
Common Stock pursuant to an alleged conversion of a promissory note into said
shares. The note, in the principal amount of $200,000, and the accrued interest
thereon, are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. On
April 3, 2000, this case was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. On April 12,
2000, LeCompte filed an action against the Company in the Circuit Court of Cook
County, Illinois, asserting substantially the same claims as in the case which
was dismissed. That action was dismissed on October 18, 2000. Subsequently an
amended complaint was filed. The Company believes this action is without merit,
and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter.

The Company is subject to various federal, state and local laws affecting its
business, and believes that it is in material compliance with all applicable
laws and regulations.
