2. Acquisitions
In February 2000, YouthStream acquired the remaining equity of CommonPlaces not
owned by NET in a merger transaction. A new public holding company was created,
namely YouthStream, and it exchanged 0.89 of its shares for each unit of
CommonPlaces. In addition, YouthStream exchanged one of its shares for each
share of NET presently outstanding. The effect of this transaction was that
YouthStream became a public holding company and NET became a wholly owned
subsidiary of YouthStream.
CommonPlaces unitholders, excluding NET, received 4,792,867 shares of the
Company's common stock, valued at $78,934,000, or approximately $16.47 per
share, the current three day average price per share when the merger was first
announced in June 1999. The Company also issued 1,301,374 of its common stock
options in exchange for the same number of options in CommonPlaces units valued
at approximately $4,600,000, or $3.99 per option.
In January 2000, NET acquired sixdegrees pursuant to a merger agreement between
NET and sixdegrees. The Company issued 2,742,536 shares of common stock and
999,957 shares of convertible preferred stock valued at $110,715,000, or
approximately $29.583 per share, the current three day average price per share
when the merger was announced in December 1999. The convertible preferred stock
was converted into common stock in March 2000. The Company also exchanged
7,722,643 of its options and warrants for 640,979 of sixdegrees's options and
warrants valued at approximately $15,700,000.
In October 1999, NET acquired Invino pursuant to a merger agreement between NET
and Invino. Invino is the developer of an instant messaging application for the
college market, which features the ability to drag and drop text, audio, video
and other types of files into instant messages, and to conduct instant messaging
with groups of people simultaneously. The purchase price aggregating $9,000,000
is payable in the Company's common stock, of which $3,486,000 (167,358 shares)
was paid at closing, based on the 30 day average share price prior to the
quarterly payment date. In December 1999, the Company issued an additional
19,301 shares valued at approximately $558,000 in connection with the first
quarterly installment. As of March 31, 2000, the Company was obligated to issue
an additional 27,325 shares of the Company's common stock valued at
approximately $340,000 in connection with the second quarterly installment.
These shares were issued in April 2000. The aggregate purchase price was
recorded

(Unaudited)
in October 1999 and the deferred purchase price included in the accompanying
balance sheet represents the unpaid portion. Any differences between the use of
the 30 day and 3 day average trading prices will be accounted for as an
adjustment to the purchase price. For accounting purposes, the value of the
shares issued and to be issued has been and will be determined on the 3 day
average trading price one day before and one day after the date of issuance. The
Company has licensed Invino's technology to CommonPlaces (see Note 6). For the
period October through February 2000 (CommonPlaces merger), the Company
recognized approximately $1,216,000 in license fee income and CommonPlaces
recognized approximately $1,216,000 in license fee expense.
In August 1999, NET acquired CollegeWeb pursuant to a merger agreement between
NET and CollegeWeb. CollegeWeb owns and maintains a Web site aimed at college
students which, among other things, permits students to communicate with other
students using video cameras attached to their computers. The purchase price
consisted of 108,971 shares of the Company's common stock, valued at $2,529,000,
or approximately $23.22 per share, the then current market price. The Company
has licensed CollegeWeb's technology to CommonPlaces (see Note 6). For the
period August through February 2000 (CommonPlaces merger), the Company
recognized approximately $525,000 in license fee income and CommonPlaces
recognized approximately $525,000 in license fee expense.
In June 1999, the Company acquired Trent and certain assets and liabilities of
HelloXpress USA, Inc. The following unaudited pro forma information is presented
as if the Company had completed the acquisitions of sixdegrees, CommonPlaces,
Trent, HelloXpress,USA, Inc., CollegeWeb and Invino as of July 1, 1999 and 1998

the period January 1997 through December 1999 pursuant to three sale/leaseback
agreeements. The leases have been accounted for as capital leases. The gains
from the sale and leaseback have been deferred over the life of the leases and

(A) This loan is secured by all of the assets of Campus Voice, Beyond the Wall
and American Passage (the "Borrowers") and is guaranteed by NET. This loan is
payable in equal monthly installments, commencing in February 1998, over a
maximum of six years. Interest is payable monthly at a rate of interest of 275
basis points above LIBOR for U.S. dollar deposits of one month maturity.
The Borrowers are also party to an interest rate exchange agreement originally
converting $3,000,000 of the aforementioned floating rate debt to a fixed rate.
The balance of the interest rate agreement at March 31, 2000 was $1,500,000.
Under the interest rate exchange agreement, the Borrowers are required to pay
interest at a fixed rate of 9.11% on the notional amount covered by the interest

(B) In July 1998, the Company issued Subordinated Notes to accredited investors
in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 less an original discount of $188,000.
These notes bear interest at 11% per annum and are due in July 2003. In

In connection with the issuance of Subordinated Notes in July 1998, the Company

warrant, which expires in July 2003, entitles the holder to purchase one share

In connection with certain earn out contingencies related to the American
Passage acquisition in September 1996, the Company issued 75,000 options which
entitled the holder to purchase one share of the Company's common stock for
$2.627. The value of such options of $1,062,000 was recorded as additional
purchase price. In November 1999, the Company issued 75,000 shares of its common
stock in connection with the exercise of such options.
For the nine months ending March 31, 2000, options were exercised resulting in
the issuance of approximately 932,000 shares of common stock, including the
options related to the American Passage earn out, resulting in net proceeds of
approximately $2,624,000.
In December 1999, the Company sold 1,257,400 shares of its common stock for
$31,435,000 in a private placement. In conjunction with the private placement,
the Company issued to the placement agent a warrant to purchase 37,722 shares of
the Company's common stock at $25.00 per share, the then current market price.
The Company incurred approximately $1,900,000 of fees and related expenses in
this transaction.
6. Investment
In November 1998, NET had acquired 5,000,000 common units in CommonPlaces in
exchange for providing media and marketing services having an aggregate value of
$15,000,000 over a four year period commencing upon the initial public launch
campaign promoting CommonPlaces' business, but not later than August 31, 1999.
Twenty-five percent of the common units initially acquired by NET, or 1,250,000
common units, were not subject to vesting and no additional performance of
services by NET was necessary with respect to those units.
NET did not assign a value to the initial 1,250,000 common units that vested
immediately because of the start-up nature of CommonPlace's business and the
related uncertainty surrounding it. It was NET's intention to record an
investment proportionate to the cost of media and marketing services provided on
an on-going basis related to its $15,000,000, four year commitment. This
investment in CommonPlaces was accounted for using the equity method until the
February 2000, merger. Under the equity method NET's share of earnings or losses
of CommonPlaces was reflected in income as earned and dividends were credited
against the investment when received.

March 31, 2000
(Unaudited)
For the period July 1, 1999 through February 28, 2000, NET provided
approximately $2,890,000 in media and marketing services to CommonPlaces. NET's
share of CommonPlaces' losses for the period July 1, 1999 through February 28,
2000 and the year ended June 30, 1999 were approximately $7,045,000 and
$2,300,000, respectively. For the period from July 1, 1999 through February 28,
2000, NET recognized approximately $1,741,000 in license fee income and

recognition of CommonPlaces' losses in its statement of operations to $2,890,000
for the period July 1, 1999 through February 28, 2000 because it was not
required to fund CommonPlaces' losses or to make additional capital
contributions.

of sixdegees, CommonPlaces and Trent, which accounted for $2,265,000, $1,781,000
and $1,220,000 of the increase, respectively. The remaining increase of $753,000
was due to increased level of sales and administrative staff to support the

compared to $853,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The increase of
$418,000 is primarily due to increased corporate personnel and related overhead
expenses required to support the Company's growth.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2000, corporate expenses were $3,156,000 as
compared to $3,111,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The increase of

expenses were $12,626,000 as compared to $520,000 for the three months ended

leases that were acquired with the sixdegrees acquisition, offset by a $56,000
reduction for long-term debt.

compared to $878,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The decrease of

to $1,276,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The increase of

administrative expenses, corporate expenses, and amortization expense that were
offset by increased revenues, other income and interest income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
In July 1999, the Company realized net proceeds of approximately $296,000 from
the exercise of underwriter's warrants. In August 1999, the Company realized net
proceeds of approximately $23,500,000 from the sale of 1,219,521 shares of the
Company's common stock. In December 1999, the Company realized net proceeds of
approximately $29,500,000 from the sale of 1,257,400 shares of the Company's
common stock and approximately $2,624,000 from the exercise of options.
The Company used approximately $8,122,000 in its operating activities in the
first nine months of fiscal year 2000, primarily resulting to funding the net
loss and increase in accounts receivable offset by depreciation and
amortization. The Company used $5,921,000 in operating activities in the first
nine months of fiscal year 1999 substantially related to funding the net loss.
Cash used in investing activities in the first nine months of fiscal year 2000
of approximately $13,851,000 was composed primarily of capital expenditures and
business acquisitions. Cash provided by financing activities in the first nine
months of fiscal year 2000 of approximately $57.1 million was attributable to
the sale of common stock in private placements, proceeds from the exercise of
warrants and options and the issuance of additional long-term debt.
The Company's primary capital requirements with respect to its operations have
been to fund corporate overhead and its online businesses as well as its network
of campus theaters and postcard distribution. In the event that the Company's
plans and assumptions with respect to its network of campus theaters change or
prove to be inaccurate, if its assumptions with respect to NET, American
Passage, Campus Voice, Beyond the Wall and Trent being able to fund their
operations and to make debt service payments out of their own cash flow in the
future prove to be inaccurate, or if the working capital or capital expenditure
requirements of sixdegrees, NET, CommonPlaces, American Passage, Campus Voice,
Beyond the Wall or Trent prove to be greater than anticipated, the Company could
be required to seek additional financing.
As of March 31, 2000, the Company had approximately $42.2 million in
unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. The Company believes that such amounts
will be sufficient to fund working capital, including debt service and interest
requirements for the next fiscal year.
The Company may also seek additional debt or equity financing to fund the cost
of its online businesses or to expand its network of campus theaters and the
cost of developing and acquiring additional media and marketing services
businesses or to fund its operations. To the extent that the Company finances
its requirements through the issuance of additional equity securities, any such
issuance would result in dilution to the interests of the Company's
stockholders.
Additionally, to the extent that the Company incurs indebtedness or issues debt
securities in connection with financing activities, the Company will be subject
to all of the risks associated with incurring substantial indebtedness,
including the risk that interest rates may fluctuate and cash flow may be
insufficient to pay principal and interest on any such indebtedness. The Company
has no current arrangements with respect to, or sources of, additional
financing. There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be
available to the Company on acceptable terms, if at all.
