         Information in this Form 6-K contains "forward-looking" statements
about Bright Station. By their nature, forward looking statements involve risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially because
they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future.
There are a number of factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed in such forward looking statements including
amongst other things, changes in demand for Bright Station's products;
fluctuations in quarterly results; dependence on key personnel; growth of the
Internet; investment risk; financial risk management and the risk of litigation.
Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are
discussed in Bright Station's recent filing with the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to its Annual Report in Form
20-F and its Form 6-K's.
