GENERAL INFORMATION INFORMATION STATEMENT Management of Dynamic I-T, Inc. ("Dynamic") is providing this information statement to inform you about things to be voted on at the special meeting of our shareholders scheduled for August 1, 2001. The matter or proposal to be voted upon is approval of the exchange of 100% of the Banknet shares for Consolidated Communications Corp. of Ireland ("CCC") shares, which shall be distributed pro rata to Dynamic I-T, Inc. shareholders on the record date for shareholders information statement for the transaction. We are not soliciting proxies as eight parties holding voting control of, in the aggregate, over 50% of the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting have indicated that they will vote in favor of the above proposal. WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY. COSTS OF INFORMATION STATEMENT We will pay the cost preparing and sending out this information statement. It will be sent to most shareholders via regular mail. A few will receive it by personal delivery or facsimile. VOTING SHAREHOLDERS ENTITLED TO VOTE Holders of record of common stock at the close of business on the date of mailing of this information statement will be entitled to vote at the Special Meeting of Shareholders. As of July 8, 2001, approximately 5,205,213 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding. Each shareholder is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held by such shareholder. Record date for Notice and the Information Statements is July 8, 2001. CUMULATIVE VOTING FOR DIRECTORS In the election of directors, shareholders are entitled to cumulate their votes for candidates whose names have been placed in nomination prior to the voting, if a shareholder has given notice at the Special Meeting prior to the voting of his or her intention to cumulate votes. Cumulative voting entitles every shareholder who is otherwise entitled to vote at an election of directors to cumulate its votes, that is, to give any one candidate a number of votes equal to the number of directors to be elected, multiplied by the number of votes to which the shareholder's shares are normally entitled, or to distribute those cumulated votes on the same principle among as many candidates as a shareholder thinks fit. If any one shareholder gives notice of the intention to cumulate votes, all shareholders may cumulate their votes for candidates. On all matters other than election of directors, each share has one vote. 1

QUORUM AND VOTE NECESSARY TO ADOPT PROPOSALS In order to transact business at the Special Meeting, a quorum consisting of a majority of all outstanding shares entitled to vote must be present. Once a share is represented for any purpose at the Special Meeting, it will be deemed present for quorum purposes for the entirety of the meeting. The affirmative vote of at least a plurality of the aggregate number of votes represented at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy is required to elect directors. That means that the two individuals receiving the largest number of votes cast will be elected as directors, whether or not they receive a majority of the votes cast. APPROVAL OF EXCHANGE (Proposal No. 1) On June 14, 2001, the Board approved the exchange of all of the shares of Banknet, LTD., its wholly owned subsidiary, to Consolidated Communications Corp. of Ireland ("CCC") in exchange for issuance of 5,205,213 shares of CCC which will be distributed pro rata to the shareholders of Dynamic I-T, Inc., as of the Record date July 8, 2001. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS COMPOSITION OF THE PRESENT BOARD OF DIRECTORS Dynamic is governed by a board of directors that meets throughout the year. There are no standing committees. All matters (including election of officers, executive compensation and selection of auditors) are approved by the board acting as a committee of the whole.

The names, background and periods of service of the present directors are as follows: Spencer H. Young (J.D. Fordham University) practiced law with Lord, Day & Lord Thacher Proffitt, and Prizer Crawley & Wood. Thereafter he joined the legal department of A.S.C.A.P. and later became a Vice President of Motion Pictures and Business Affairs at Ashley Famous Agency (the forerunner of International Creative Management) specializing in literary, television, motion picture, music, and publishing business affairs and legal matters on behalf of the agency and its clients. When General Electric entered into motion picture and television production, through its subsidiary Tomorrow Entertainment, he was recruited to be its Vice President of Business Affairs. Thereafter he was Vice President of Business Affairs for Lorimar. While at Lorimar he was one of the first American executives to establish co-production agreements for an independent American company. During his tenure at Lorimar these arrangements (with German, Italian and British partners) resulted in the financing of five feature films. The co-production formula he devised became the basis for the financing of dozens of the Lorimar films which followed. In 1981 he was appointed Managing Director of Clydebank Film Studios, Plc and relocated to Britain. In 1992 he returned to the United States to head the newly formed Falcon Film Finance, Ltd. He has been a business affairs consultant to numerous companies including R.K.O. and Taft Broadcasting and has produced three motion pictures and a mini-series. In 1995 he became associated with the Law Offices of Debra M. Stasson from which he resigned in March 1999 to devote his time to Internet related business. In February 2000, Mr. Young became a Vice President of the Company and in April 2000, joined the Company's Board of Directors. In June 2001, Mr. Young was appointed President of the Company. Paul R. Warshaw, graduated from the University of California at Berkeley with a BA in Economic History and an MBA in Finance, after which he worked as Security Analyst at Arnold Bernhard & Company in New York City, where he wrote more than 100 published reports on individual companies and industry groups for the Value Line Investment Service. Returning to graduate school in 1974, Dr. Warshaw earned a Ph.D. in Marketing and Psychology in 1977 from the University of Massachusetts, then joined the Faculty of Management at McGill University in Montreal, serving as both Assistant and Associate Professor, teaching, researching and publishing numerous articles with respect to various aspects of Consumer Behavior, Advertising, and Marketing. Dr. Warshaw was appointed to the Editorial Boards of the Journal of Marketing Research and the Journal of Business Research; served as reviewer for the Journal of Consumer Research, Management Science, Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, and the Association for Consumer Research. Dr. Warshaw is listed in Who's Who in American Advertising. Upon returning to his native United States in 1983, he worked as Associate and full Professor of Marketing at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, New York University, Drexel University, and Cal Poly. Dr. Warshaw left academia in 1991 to pursue entrepreneurial ventures in entertainment and marketing research, co-founding private companies RMO Entertainment Group, Digital Hollywood, Streamline Multimedia, 13 14 and WEB Research. They were instrumental in the formation of the Company's Distance Learning division. In June 2000 Dr. Warshaw joined the Company's Board of Directors. 3

COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES Our executive compensation policies and practices are designed to provide a competitive compensation program that effectively aligns executive compensation with our mission, business strategy, and values. The board believes that implementing these policies and practices will allow us to attract, motivate, retain, and reward key executives who have the skills, experience and talents required to promote our short- and long-term performance and growth. The executive compensation program is based on the following pay-for-performance guiding principles: o attract, retain, reward and motivate highly talented employees; o provide incentives for achieving specific corporate earnings and return goals, as well as market-related goals necessary to build shareholder value over time; and o align the interests of executives with the interests of our shareholders by basing a significant portion of compensation upon the company's performance. To achieve these objectives, our compensation philosophy and programs: o reward executives based on the achievement of financial and other performance measures; and o encourage significant employee ownership of the company's common stock. The board considers each of these principles as it administers and implements the program. 5
