INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors
and Stockholders of
Worlds Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Worlds Inc. (a development
stage enterprise) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements
of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years ended December
31, 1996 and 1995, for the period from April 26, 1994 (inception) to December
31, 1994, and for the period from April 26, 1994 (inception) to December 31,
1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Worlds Inc. as of December 31,
1996 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, for the period from April 26, 1994
(inception) to December 31, 1994, and for the period from April 26, 1994
(inception) to December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the summary of
accounting policies, the Company is in the development stage and has suffered
recurring losses from operations, has a working capital deficit, and has a
stockholders' deficit since inception that raise substantial doubt about its
ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these
matters are described in Note 1 (Development Stage Risks) and Note 9 (Subsequent
Events) to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

DISCLOSURES OF NONCASH FINANCING AND INVESTING ACTIVITIES:
In 1995, the Company acquired equipment under capital leases totaling
$290,495. In 1995, the Company also purchased technology for $750,000
under an installment license obligation (Note 3).
In 1997, as part of the restructuring of operations (Notes 4 and 9), the
Company disposed of property and equipment with a net book value of
$252,180, which included $138,439 of equipment under capital leases. The
related capital lease obligations, totaling $123,013, were assumed by the
lessor and a party which acquired certain assets used in the Company's
Seattle operations. The agreement with this party also resulted in a
reduction of trade payables totaling $87,226.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NATURE OF BUSINESS Worlds Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated
under the laws of Delaware on April 26, 1994.
The Company was formed to develop and
commercialize 3D multi-user tools and
technologies for the Internet market. The
Company is in the development stage and, as
such, has not generated significant revenues
from operations.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will
continue as a going concern. The Company is in
the development stage (see Note 1) and has
suffered recurring losses from operations since
its inception that raises substantial doubt
about its ability to continue as a going
concern. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty. As more fully
described in Note 9, on December 3, 1997, the
Company consummated a merger agreement with
Worlds Acquisition Corporation ("WAC"), a
company which had completed a private placement
offering of securities.
The financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 7,
"Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage
Enterprises," which requires development stage
enterprises to employ the same accounting
principles as operating companies.
INTERIM FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS The accompanying balance sheet as of September
30, 1997 and the statements of operations and
cash flows for each of the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1997 have not been
audited. However, in the opinion of management,
they include all adjustments necessary for a
fair presentation of the financial position and
the results of operations for the periods
presented. The results of operations for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of results to be
expected for any future period.

WORLDS INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)
SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
RESTRUCTURING OF
OPERATIONS Due to recurring losses, insufficient revenue,
a working capital deficit and a net
stockholders' deficit, the Company's management
made significant reductions in operations in
February 1997 that are reflected in the
Company's unaudited financial statements as of
and for the nine months ended September 30,
1997. In March 1997, the Company engaged an
outside management firm to assist with the
downsizing of operations which has included a
major reduction in employees and a
consolidation of all operations to one location
in San Francisco. The Company decided in
December 1996 to close its Seattle operations
resulting in a $110,000 charge to operations
for the year ended December 31, 1996.
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
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from these
estimates.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of
highly liquid money market instruments, which
have original maturities of three months or
less at the time of purchase.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are stated at cost or
the present value of the leased equipment, as
appropriate. Depreciation is calculated using
the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives or lease terms, if applicable, of
the assets, which range from two to five years.
Maintenance and repairs are expensed as
incurred and improvements are capitalized.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue from development and licensing
contracts is recognized upon the attainment of
contractual milestones (approximating the
percentage- of-completion method). Cash
received in advance of revenues earned is
recorded as deferred revenue.
SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
COSTS Software development costs are charged to
expense when incurred until the technological
feasibility of the product has been
established. After technological feasibility
has been established, any additional costs
would be capitalizable in accordance with SFAS
No. 86. No such costs have been capitalized to
date.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
COSTS Research and development costs are expensed as
incurred.
INCOME TAXES The Company uses the liability method of
accounting for income taxes in accordance with
SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are
recognized based on the temporary differences
between the financial statement and income tax
bases of assets, liabilities and carryforwards
using enacted tax rates. Valuation allowances
are established, when necessary, to reduce
deferred tax assets to the amount expected to
be realized.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT
RISK The Company provides consulting services to
corporate customers in a variety of industries.
For the period from April 26, 1994 (inception)
to December 31, 1994, three customers accounted
for 69% of the Company's revenues. For the
years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996, five
customers accounted for 91% and 74% of the
Company's revenues, respectively.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted
the provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation". Under this standard,
companies are encouraged, but not required, to
adopt the fair value method of accounting for
employee stock-based transactions. Under the
fair value method, compensation cost is
measured at the grant date based on the fair
value of the award and is recognized over the
service period, which is usually the vesting
period. Companies are permitted to continue to
account for employee stock-based transactions
under Accounting Principles Board Opinion
("APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees," but are required to disclose pro
forma net income and earnings per share as if
the fair value method has been adopted. The
Company has elected to continue to account for
stock-based compensation under APB No. 25 (see
Note 5).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(INFORMATION FOR SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1997 IS UNAUDITED)
1. DEVELOPMENT STAGE
COMPANY The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared on a going- concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
course of business. As shown in the financial
statements, the Company, as of September 30,
1997, has incurred recurring losses totaling
$21,000,496 since inception, has a working
capital deficit of $4,041,203 and a
stockholders' deficit of $3,902,742. As
discussed in Note 9, on December 3, 1997, the
Company consummated a merger agreement with
WAC, a company which had completed a private
placement offering of securities whereby
$4,385,000 of gross proceeds was raised.
The Company anticipates, however, that it
currently has only a portion of the funds
necessary to permit the Company to complete
product development and commercialization.
There can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to obtain the substantial additional
capital resources necessary to permit the
Company to pursue its business plan or that any
assumptions relating to its business plan will
prove to be accurate. The Company has no
current arrangements with respect to, or
sources of, additional financing and there can
be no assurance that any such financing will be
available to the Company on commercially
reasonable terms, or at all. Any inability to
obtain additional financing will have a
material adverse effect on the Company,
including possibly requiring the Company to
significantly curtail or cease operations.
These factors raise substantial doubt about the
ability of the Company to continue as a going
concern. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(INFORMATION FOR SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1997 IS UNAUDITED)
On December 13, 1996, the Company received a
Bridge Loan totaling $1,000,000 from two
preferred stockholders. Additional advances of
$650,000 were made under the Bridge Loan during
the nine month period ended September 30, 1997
($500,000 in January 1997 and $50,000 in June
1997 were received from the same preferred
stockholders; and $100,000 was received in May
1997 from an affiliated person of a
stockholder). These advances under the Bridge
Loan were granted in return for convertible
promissory notes and options at $0.88 per share
on 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock
held by a founder and officer of the Company as
of December 31, 1996 (825,000 shares at
September 30, 1997). Such options remain
exercisable for 36 months, but will terminate
immediately upon the consummation of an initial
public offering of the Company's capital stock
or any consolidation or merger by the Company
or any sale, conveyance or disposition of all
or substantially all of the assets of the
Company; such an event occurred on December 3,
1997 when the Company consummated a merger
(Note 9). The loan bears interest at a rate of
9% from the date of the advances. Accrued
interest is approximately $4,000 at December
31, 1996 and $71,000 at September 30, 1997.
In June 1997, the Company renegotiated the
terms of the Bridge Loan to convert it to a
three year loan bearing interest at 7.5% and
the option to convert into common stock based
on the conversion price of $4.375, $5.00 and
$5.625 in each of the three years following
consummation of the merger of Worlds Inc. into
Worlds Acquisition Corp. (see Note 9).
On January 3, 1995, the Company purchased
technology for $750,000 under a license
agreement with Kinetic Effects, Inc. and Simon
Fraser University of British Columbia ("SFU").
At December 31, 1996, the Company had an
obligation to make monthly payments of $10,000
($6,667 to SFU and $3,333 to Kinetic Effects,
Inc.) through November 2000. The purchased
technology was charged to research and
development expense in 1995. This obligation
has been renegotiated

the technology, $373,333 of the debt was
forgiven and has been included as an
extraordinary item in the statement of
operations for the nine months ended September

Equipment was leased from a preferred
stockholder under both operating and capital
leases. The related outstanding capital leases
at December 31, 1995 and 1996 were $179,737 and
$123,012, respectively. The operating lease
commitments at December 31, 1995 and 1996 were
approximately $927,000 and $378,000,
respectively. In June 1997, the Company and the
preferred stockholder agreed that a total of
$364,000 is owed by the Company on the prior
operating and capital lease obligations which
is recorded in accounts payable at September
30, 1997. This obligation to the preferred
stockholder was reduced to $250,000 during
December 1997 upon completion of the merger and
private placement discussed in Note 9. The gain
of $114,000 from reduction of such obligation
will be included as an extraordinary item in
the statement of operations for the period
ended December 31, 1997.
5. STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT Preferred Stock
Each share of Series A and Series B preferred
stock is convertible, at the option of the
holder, into fully paid shares of common stock.
The conversion rate is based upon the original
purchase price, subject to adjustments for
stock dividends, stock splits, and capital
reorganizations and price based antidilution,
currently one-to-one.
Each share of Series A and Series B preferred
stock automatically converts to common stock
upon the affirmative vote of the majority of
the outstanding preferred stock or the closing
of an underwritten public offering of shares of
the Company's common stock resulting in total
proceeds of at least $15,000,000. The holders
of the preferred stock are entitled to one vote
on an "as if converted" basis.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(INFORMATION FOR SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1997 IS UNAUDITED)
Holders of Series A and Series B preferred
stock are entitled to receive dividends, prior
and in preference to any declaration or payment
of any dividends on common stock, at the rate
of $0.39 for Series A and $0.79 for Series B
per share per annum. Such dividends are not
cumulative, except in the event that the
Company does not enter into an initial public
offering of at least $15,000,000 in proceeds to
the Company on or before May 31, 1998, in which
case the dividends are cumulative effective May
31, 1998, and are payable when and if declared
by the Company's Board of Directors in cash
legally available for distribution, or in
stock, if no cash is legally payable. As of
December 31, 1996, no dividends have been
declared.
In the event of liquidation, consolidation,
merger, or winding up of the Company prior to
conversion, holders of preferred stock are
entitled to receive, in preference to the
holders of common stock, an amount equal to
their liquidation amount or a pro rata share of
the remaining assets, based on their ownership
of the Company. As of December 31, 1996, the
aggregate liquidation preference was
approximately $16,657,000. (See Note 9).
A Series A preferred stock investor also has a
stock warrant which provides the right to
purchase shares of Series A preferred stock
sufficient to bring its holdings on a fully
diluted basis to 21% of the Company's shares.
The warrant expires in the event of a qualified
public offering or when the holder of preferred
stock no longer chooses to exercise its
existing antidilution rights. The warrant is
exercisable at fair market value at date of
exercise. As a result of the merger described
in Note 9, such warrants were extinguished.
Common Stock
Prior to the mergers described in Note 9, the
Company had reserved 4,500,000 shares of common
stock for issuance under the 1994 Amended and
Restated Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"), which
authorized the granting of incentive and
nonstatutory stock options to employees and
consultants of the Company. Under this Plan,
the Company's Board of Directors would grant
stock options at prices not less than 85% of
fair value. The options were all immediately
exercisable and were subject to vesting at
times and in increments as specified by the
Company's Board of Directors. Options generally
vested over three years and expired 10 years
from date of grant.

Plan. Under APB Opinion No. 25, because the
exercise price of the Company's stock options
equals or exceeds the market price of the
underlying stock on the date of grant, no
compensation cost is recognized. Compensation
or other expense is recorded based on intrinsic
value (excess of current price over exercise
price on date of grant) for employees, and fair
value of the option awards for others.

to provide pro forma information regarding net
loss as if compensation cost for the Company's
stock option plans had been determined in
accordance with the fair value based method
prescribed in FASB Statement No. 123. The
Company estimates the fair value of each stock
option at the grant date by using the minimum

1995 and 1996, respectively; no dividend yield
for any year; near-zero volatility for both

6. INCOME TAXES From its inception, the Company has generated
losses for both financial reporting and tax
purposes. As of December 31, 1996, the
Company's net operating losses for Federal
income tax purposes were approximately $16.6
million, and expire between the years 2009 and
2011. For state income tax purposes, as of
December 31, 1996, the Company had net
operating loss carryforwards of approximately
$12.7 million for the State of California which
will expire 2002. As of December 31, 1996, the
combined Federal and state tax benefit of the
net operating loss carryforwards is
approximately $6.4 million and the deferred tax
asset relating to accounting differences for
depreciation, certain accrued expenses and
technology costs was approximately $0.4
million. This deferred tax asset totaling $6.8
million has been completely offset by a
valuation allowance since management cannot
determine that it is more likely than not that
the deferred tax asset can be realized. The use
of such net operating loss carryforwards will
be subject to annual limits if the Company has
incurred an "ownership change". In general, an
ownership change occurs if, during any
three-year test period, the aggregate of all
increases in percentage ownership by
stockholders is more than 50%. Upon completion
of the merger discussed in Note 9, such an
"ownership change" occurred.
The provision for income taxes for the year
ended December 31, 1996 and the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 consists of:

lawsuits filed by a former employee. One suit
filed in December 1995 in San Francisco
Superior Court alleges various contract and
tort claims for wrongful termination and seeks
damages ranging from $500,000 to $2,000,000. A
second suit filed in January 1997 in U. S.
District Court, Northern District of
California, asserts claims for damages of
$200,000 against the Company in connection with
the use of the Company's name on the World Wide
Web. Pursuant to mediation in July 1996, the
Company executed a settlement agreement in
connection with the wrongful termination case
and paid the former employee $225,000 in 1996.
In February 1997, the Company executed an
amendment to the July 1996 settlement involving
a proposed settlement of both cases. The
proposed settlement has not been completed but,
in December 1997, the Company received a
favorable ruling in San Francisco Superior
Court which the Company and counsel believe
will result in an overall resolution of the two
lawsuits for a maximum additional liability of
$150,000 which amount had originally been
accrued at December 31, 1996.

Although, to the best of the Company's
knowledge, no legal proceedings other than
those referenced above have been instituted,
current management has been informed that
potential claims may exist in the areas of
unpaid taxes, unpaid wages and expenses to
employees and consultants, unpaid vacation pay,
and indemnification claims by certain entities
and individuals against the Company. The
Company is also informed that certain employees
and consultants may assert claims against the
Company based on alleged grants of options or
other equity interests in the Company. While it
is not possible at present to quantify the
extent or risk of such matters, the Company's
management believes that all such potential and
unasserted claims in the aggregate will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position.
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (a) The Mergers
On December 3, 1997, the Company was merged
with and into Worlds Acquisition Corp.
("WAC") in a series of related transactions
which included the simultaneous merger with
and into Academic Computer Systems, Inc., a
New Jersey corporation ("Academic") (the
"Mergers") and a private offering of the
WAC's securities (the "Private Placement").
All of the common and preferred stock of the
Company were exchanged for 2,000,000 shares
of WAC. WAC was incorporated in Delaware on
April 8, 1997 to engage in designing,
developing and marketing three-dimensional
("3D") music oriented Internet sites on the
World Wide Web. These web sites are
anticipated to utilize 3D technologies
developed by the Company. At September 30,
1997, WAC had not yet commenced any formal
business operations and all activity to that
date related to its formation and the
negotiation of its fundraising transactions.
During the period ended September 30, 1997,
WAC advanced the Company $100,000 for
working capital. Such advance is noninterest
bearing with no fixed repayment terms.
Academic was an inactive company with no
operations. Academic voluntarily reported
under

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(INFORMATION FOR SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1997 IS UNAUDITED)
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 "Exchange
Act"). The combined entity that resulted from
the Mergers (the "Combined Entity") intends to
continue reporting under the Exchange Act. While
no trading market existed for the securities of
Academic, or currently exists for the securities
of the Combined Entity, the Combined Entity
intends to cause its common stock to be traded
on the Bulletin Board or in the Pink Sheets.
(b) The Private Placement
The Private Placement called for WAC to
offer for sale a maximum of 50 units (57 1/2
with the over-allotment), each consisting of
120,000 shares of its common stock (the
"Units") at a price of $120,000 per Unit. In
connection with the Private Placement, the
placement agent was to receive one warrant
to purchase one share of WAC's common stock
at $1 per share for every $40 of gross
proceeds from the sale of the Units. On
November 21, 1997, WAC sold 31.67 Units with
gross proceeds of $3,800,000 (the "Initial
Private Placement Closing") and, on December
31, 1997, the Combined Entity sold 4.85
Units with gross proceeds of $585,000. WAC
agreed to include the shares of common stock
underlying the Units sold in the Private
Placement (the "Private Placement Shares")
in a registration statement to be filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC"). In the event that WAC does not use
its best efforts to file the registration
statement with the SEC within 60 days of the
Initial Private Placement Closing and have
the registration statement declared
effective by the SEC within 120 days
thereafter, it has agreed, upon the
occurrence of each such event, to issue to
purchasers of the Units one warrant to
purchase one share of common stock, at an
exercise price of $1, for each three Private
Placement Shares.

(c) Stock Option Plan
As a result of the Mergers, WAC now has a
Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plan") as an
incentive for, and to encourage share
ownership by, its officers, directors and
other key employees and/or consultants and
potential management of possible future
acquired companies. The Option Plan provides
that options to purchase a maximum of
1,000,000 shares of common stock (subject to
adjustment in certain circumstances) may be
granted under the Option Plan. The Option
Plan also allows for the granting of stock
appreciation rights ("SARs") in tandem with,
or independently of, stock options. Any SARs
granted will not be counted against the
1,000,000 limit.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Worlds Acquisition Corp.
Boston, Massachusetts
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Worlds Acquisition Corp. (a
development stage enterprise) as of June 30, 1997, and the related statements of
operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the period from April 8,
1997 (inception) to June 30, 1997. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Worlds Acquisition Corp. at
June 30, 1997 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
period from April 8, 1997 (inception) to June 30, 1997, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming Worlds
Acquisition Corp. will continue as a going concern. The Company has a working
capital deficit whereby current liabilities exceed its current assets (cash)
which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
As discussed in Note 7 (Subsequent Events) and Note 1 (Basis of Presentation),
the Company completed a private placement raising gross proceeds of $4,385,000
and consummated a merger agreement with a development stage enterprise, Worlds
Inc. The financial statements do not include any adjustments resulting from the
private placement and merger transactions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES Income Taxes
Worlds Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") follows
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
109 ("SFAS 109"), "Accounting for Income Taxes."
SFAS 109 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. The Company has net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $168,000
available to reduce any future income taxes. The
tax benefit of these losses, approximately
$67,000, has been offset by a valuation
allowance due to the uncertainty of its
realization.
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per common share is computed on the
basis of the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Basis of Presentation and Development Stage
Risks
The Company has a working capital deficit
(current liabilities exceed current assets)
which raises substantial doubt about its ability
to continue as a going concern.
As discussed in Note 7, the Company completed a
private placement raising gross proceeds of
$4,385,000 and consummated a merger agreement
with a development stage enterprise, Worlds
Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Worlds"). Worlds
has not generated significant revenues from
operations and had an accumulated deficit from
inception to September 30, 1997 of approximately
$21,000,000.

WORLDS ACQUISITION CORP.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company anticipates, however, that it
currently has only a portion of the funds
necessary to complete product development and
commercialization. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to obtain the
substantial additional capital resources
necessary to pursue its business plan or that
any assumptions relating to its business plan
will prove to be accurate. The Company has no
current arrangements with respect to, or sources
of, additional financing and there can be no
assurance that any such financing will be
available to the Company on commercially
reasonable terms, or at all. Any inability to
obtain additional financing will have a material
adverse effect on the Company, including
possibly requiring the Company to significantly
curtail or cease operations.
These factors raise substantial doubt about the
ability of the Company to continue as a going
concern. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.
2. ORGANIZATION AND
BUSINESS OPERATIONS The Company was incorporated on April 8, 1997 to
engage in designing, developing and marketing
three-dimensional ("3D") music oriented Internet
sites on the World Wide Web. These web sites are
anticipated to utilize 3D technologies developed
by Worlds, which merged with and into the
Company on December 3, 1997 in a series of
related transactions (see Note 6). At September
30, 1997, the Company had not yet commenced any
formal business operations and all activity to
that date related to the Company's formation and
the negotiation of transactions described in
Note 7. The Company's fiscal year-end is
December 31.

3. DEFERRED PRIVATE
PLACEMENT COSTS As of September 30, 1997, the Company had
incurred expenses of $215,000 in connection with
its proposed private placement. As discussed in
Note 7, the private placement occurred in
December 1997 at which time such costs will be
charged to stockholders' equity.
4. ADVANCE TO WORLDS
INC. During the period ended September 30, 1997, the
Company advanced Worlds $100,000 for working
capital. Such advance is noninterest bearing
with no fixed repayment terms.
5. COMMITMENTS (a) During September 1997, the Company commenced
leasing of office space in Boston under a
noncancelable operating lease expiring in
September 2000. Minimum rentals under this
lease are approximated as follows:
Year ending December 31,
--------------------------------------------
1997 (three months) $ 16,000
1998 48,000
1999 50,000
2000 34,000
--------------------------------------------
Total minimum payments $148,000
--------------------------------------------
(b) The Company anticipates entering into an
employment agreement with its president that
calls for minimum annual compensation of
$175,000. Bonuses will be determined at the
discretion of the Board of Directors. The
agreement is anticipated to expire in
December 2000.

6. COMMON STOCK (a) During the period ended September 30, 1997,
the Company issued 8,400,000 shares of
common stock (on a post-split basis), par
value $.001 per share, to founders of the
Company for a consideration of $204,000.
(b) On September 15, 1997, the Company's Board
of Directors approved a two-for-one split of
the common stock. The additional shares
resulting from the stock split were
distributed on September 15, 1997 to all
stockholders of record at the close of
business on September 15, 1997. The balance
sheets as of June 30, and September 30, 1997
and the statements of stockholders' equity
for the period from April 8, 1997 to
September 30, 1997 reflect the retroactive
recording of the stock split as if it had
occurred on April 8, 1997. Further, all
references in the financial statements to
average number of shares outstanding and
related prices, per share amounts and stock
option data have been restated for all
periods to reflect the stock split.
(c) During September 1997, the Board of
Directors and stockholders of the Company
adopted a stock option plan (the "Option
Plan") as an incentive for, and to encourage
share ownership by, the Company's officers,
directors and other key employees and/or
consultants and potential management of
possible future acquired companies. The
Option Plan provides that options to
purchase a maximum of 1,000,000 shares of
common stock (subject to adjustment in
certain circumstances) may be granted under
the Option Plan. The Option Plan also allows
for the granting of stock appreciation
rights ("SAR's") in tandem with, or
independent of, stock options. Any SAR's
granted will not be counted against the
1,000,000 limit.

7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (a) The Mergers
On December 3, 1997, Worlds was merged with
and into the Company in a series of related
transactions which included the simultaneous
merger of the Company with and into Academic
Computer Systems, Inc., a New Jersey
corporation ("Academic") (the "Mergers") and
a private offering of the Company's
securities (the "Private Placement"). All of
the common and preferred stock of Worlds
were exchanged for 2,000,000 shares of the
Company. Worlds was a development stage
company, had not generated significant
revenues from operations and had an
accumulated deficit from inception to
September 30, 1997 of approximately
$21,000,000. Academic was an inactive
company with no operations. Academic
voluntarily reported under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").
The combined entity that resulted from the
Mergers (the "Combined Entity") intends to
continue reporting under the Exchange Act.
While no trading market existed for the
securities of Academic, or currently exists
for the securities of the Combined Entity,
the Combined Entity intends to cause its
Common Stock to be traded on the Bulletin
Board or in the Pink Sheets.
(b) The Private Placement
The Private Placement called for the Company
to offer for sale a maximum of 50 units (57
1/2 with the over-allotment) each consisting
of 120,000 shares of the Company's common
stock (the "Units") at a price of $120,000
per Unit. In connection with the Private
Placement, the placement agent was to
receive one warrant to purchase one share of
the Company's common stock at $1 per share
for every $40 of gross proceeds from the
sale of the Units. On November 21, 1997, the
Company sold 31.67 Units with gross proceeds
of $3,800,000 (the "Initial Private
Placement Closing") and on December 31,
1997, Combined Entity sold 4.85 Units with
gross proceeds of $585,000. The Company
agreed to include the shares of common stock

PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET
The following sets forth the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance
sheet of Worlds Inc. ("Worlds"), Worlds Acquisition Corp. ("WAC") and Academic
Computer Systems Inc. ("Academic"), as if the Mergers had been effective as of
September 30, 1997. The merger agreements provide that all of the outstanding
shares of Worlds will be converted into shares of WAC and WAC will be merged
into Academic. The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet has been
prepared to illustrate the estimated effects of the Mergers and was derived by
adjusting the historical balance sheets of Worlds, WAC and Academic as of
September 30, 1997 for certain transactions pursuant to the mergers described in
the notes to the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet. The unaudited
pro forma consolidated balance sheet should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements of Worlds, WAC and Academic contained elsewhere herein. The
unaudited proforma consolidated balance sheet is not necessarily indicative of
the financial position of the combined company that would have occurred had the
Mergers occurred on September 30, 1997, nor is it necessarily indicative of
future financial position.

WORLDS INC.
NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET
(Unaudited)
On December 3, 1997 the merger agreements between Worlds, WAC and
Academic were consummated. In combining the entities and accounting for the
private placement closings that occurred on November 21 and December 31, 1997,
the following pro forma adjustments have been made to the unaudited pro forma
consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 1997.
(1) Represents the acquisition of Worlds by WAC, issuance of 2,000,000
shares of WAC to the former shareholders of Worlds and elimination of
Worlds equity accounts. The 2,000,000 shares of WAC were valued at the
private placement price at $1 per share ($2,000,000). The final
allocation of the purchase price is dependant upon certain valuations.
Accordingly the difference between the costs of the acquisition and the
underlying book value of Worlds (an excess purchase price over equity
of $5,902,742) has been allocated to purchased research and development
costs subject to completion of such valuations.
(2) Represents the merger of WAC and Academic.
(3) Represents the elimination of an intercompany advance from WAC to
Worlds.
(4) Represents net proceeds ($3,168,676, after commissions and expenses of
the offering) from the initial closing of private offering memorandum,
the issuance of 3,800,000 shares of WAC to investors and the issuance
of 425,000 shares of WAC to placement agent. Settlement of certain
accrued liabilities ($160,456), accrued private placement costs
($130,000) and payment of consulting fees ($120,000) were made at the
initial closing resulting in net cash received of $3,008,220.
(5) Represents net proceeds ($526,000, after commissions and expenses of
the offering) from the second closing of private offering memorandum
and the issuance of 585,000 shares of WAC to investors.
(6) Represents the reclassification from current liabilities to long-term
debt of Worlds liabilities of $1,964,000 and the write down of $114,000
of Worlds lease obligations as a result of the consummation of the
mergers.
