PART I. ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS. COMPANY OVERVIEW We were organized as a business corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 25, 1999. We were formed to engage in "pinhooking" and racing of thoroughbred horses. "Pinhooking" involves the purchase of a yearling, that is, a horse which is between one and two years old, with a view towards training and then reselling that horse as a two-year old. Those horses that we are unable to pinhook at an acceptable profit we plan to enter in races because we expect that if a horse is successful at racing, its value will increase. As of March 31, 2001 we held full title to 19 thoroughbreds and ownership interests, ranging from 20% to 60%, in five thoroughbreds. We purchase most of our thoroughbreds from non-affiliated breeders of thoroughbred yearlings through non-affiliated industry auction houses, such as Fasig-Tipton and Keeneland. Our Chief Executive Officer, President and sole employee, James D. Tilton, Jr., currently makes all the decisions regarding the purchasing, training, racing and selling of our thoroughbred horses. In particular, Mr. Tilton makes the decisions regarding: (i) whether to purchase a certain thoroughbred horse; (ii) who should be retained to break-in and train the thoroughbred; (iii) whether the thoroughbred should be sold as a two year old (i.e., pinhooked); (iv) whether the thoroughbred should be entered into races; and (v) if raced, at what point if any, the thoroughbred should be sold. Mr. Tilton has limited experience in pinhooking and racing of thoroughbred horses. As a result, Mr. Tilton may, from time to time, retain consultants experienced in the thoroughbred industry to: (i) assist him in determining which thoroughbreds to purchase; (ii) train the purchased thoroughbreds; and (iii) assist him in determining whether the thoroughbred should be sold as a two year old or raced. We have in the past and expect to incur in the future numerous expenses in our efforts to pinhook and race thoroughbred horses. First, we have previously paid and expect to continue to pay a 5% consultant fee for all thoroughbreds we purchase with the assistance of a consultant. Second, we plan to hire horse trainers to maintain, care and train our thoroughbreds. Such horse trainers bill us for veterinary, food, shipping, blacksmith, breaking in and training expenses. We also have previously paid and expect to make payments to these horse trainers of 5% of the sales price of each throughbred that they train and we sell. Additional expenses could include sale nominations and entry fees, advertising and video production. We also have in the past and expect to incur in the future mortality and surgical insurance expense. This insurance costs approximately 2.5% of the purchase price of each horse. Additionally, for each thoroughbred we sell at auction, we have previously paid and expect to pay a fee of 5% of the sale price to the auction house. 3

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF OUR COMPANY The following is a detailed chronology of the steps we have taken in furtherance of our business plan, beginning in 1997, prior to our incorporation. Our President, Mr. Tilton, has dedicated much of the past three years to developing and building the Company. [Download Table] (a) 1997: Mr. Tilton spent much of 1997 studying and developing a plan for engaging in profitable pinhooking. Mr. Tilton's market research came from several sources, including his personal experience (e.g., by growing up in Louisville, Kentucky -- the heart of the thoroughbred industry), his participation in horse ownership, and from his extensive reading of books and trade publications in the field, including periodicals such as Blood Horse and Thoroughbred Times. Mr. Tilton's objective was threefold. He wished to (i) build a solid understanding of the thoroughbred market, (ii) conduct extensive first hand research, and (iii) develop a solid business plan for the Company. (b) January-June of In addition to networking in Kentucky, Mr. Tilton made 1998: numerous trips to Florida and California to meet with individuals and entities in the thoroughbred industry. Mr. Tilton continued to own a few race horses with other individuals. His continued involvement with other horse owners provided additional market research. (c) July-Dec. of 1998: Mr. Tilton attended thoroughbred auctions around the country, including, but not limited to, the Fasig-Tipton Auctions. Mr. Tilton met consigners in the horse breeding and training business. He purchased one race horse in September of 1998, five race horses in October and two in December. Three of these horses were resold for a profit in 1999. (d) March 1999: Mr. Tilton formed the Company and was issued 12,000,000 shares of common stock. The Company then issued 1,150,000 shares of its Common Stock to five investors in exchange for various services rendered to the Company by them in connection with its organization and formation. Specifically, two of such investors, namely, Rick Fox, Esq. and Neil Broderick, Esq., provided legal services to the Company, one, namely Henry Fischer, provided accounting services to the Company and two, namely Andy Dyer and FT Trading, provided financial advisory services to the Company. The Company subsequently issued 43,000 shares of its Common Stock at $.10 per share to 43 investors for a total capital raise of $4,300. The Company relied upon the exemption afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the issuance of these shares. (e) July 1999: The Company purchased its first horse at the Fasig Tipton Auction. Mr Tilton loaned the Company $50,000 for the purpose of making that purchase. (f) Aug. 1999: We acquired two additional horses for a total sum of $121,000 at the Fasig Tipton New York Auction. The funds used to purchase the horses were also borrowed from Mr. Tilton. (g) Sept. 1999: We purchased one horse at the Keeneland sale. 4

The promissory note was initially due and payable in the amount of $375,000 on or before March 28, 2000. On March 22, 2000, the Augustine Fund extended the due date to May 29, 2000. On October 3, 2000 and April 12, 2001, The Augustine Fund granted us an additional extension to March 31, 2001 and January 1, 2002, respectively. The entire loan is convertible, at the sole discretion of the Augustine Fund, into shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Converted Shares") at $.10 per share and warrants excercisable into one-half the number of Converted Shares at $.15 per share. (i) October 1999: We purchased three horses at the Fasig Tipton auction in Maryland and two horses in Kentucky. (j) December 15, 1999: Mr. Andrew Dyer, with an address c/o The Dyer Group, 100 Tower Drive, Greenville, S.C. 29650, loaned the Company $50,000 for operating expenses.

On April 12, 2001, Mr. Dyer granted us an additional extension to January 1, 2002. The loan is convertible, at the sole discretion of Mr. Dyer, into shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Converted Shares") at $.10 per share and warrants excercisable into one-half the number of Converted Shares at $.15 per share. (k) January 31, 2000: Mr. Andrew Dyer, with an address c/o The Dyer Group, 100 Tower Drive, Greenhille, S.C. 29600, loaned the Company an additional $50,000 for operating expenses.

[Download Table] (l) Feb. 2000: We sold two of our horses at the Ocalar Breeder Sales "OBS" February sale in Miami. We also sold a 75% ownership interest in another horse in a private transaction. (m) March 2000 - April We sold three of our horses, one at the OBS March sales in 2000: Ocala, and two at the Keeneland April sale in Lexington, Kentucky. We also purchased a horse at the OBS June sale in Ocala as a racing prospect. (n) May 2000: We sold one of our horses at the Fasig Tipton May Midatlantic sale in Baltimore, Maryland. We also purchased a horse as a racing prospect at the same sale. (o) June 2000: We sold ownership interests in three of our horses in private transactions. (p) August 2000 - We purchased five horses at the Keeneland September sale, 6 October 2000: horses at the Fasig Tipton Midatlantic sale, 3 horses at the Fasig Tipton Kentucky sale, and one horse through a private transaction. We borrowed $300,000 from Mr. Tilton at an interest rate of 6% per annum as partial payment for the horses and in consideration thereof gave Mr. Tilton a security interest in certain of our horses. This security does not require repayment upon sale of the horse. Instead, the security interest attaches to the proceeds from any such sale. The entire loan is convertible, at the sole discretion of Mr. Tilton, into shares of our Common Stock (the "Converted Shares") at $.10 per share and warrants exercisable into one-half the number of Converted Shares at $.15 per share. (q) September 2000: We purchased the domain name Thoroughbredsales.com in exchange for 25,000 shares of our Common Stock. We intend to construct a corporate website using this domain name.

We also purchased 5 horses at the Fasig Tipton December Mixed Sales. 6

RISK FACTORS An investment in our Common Stock involves risks. You should be able to bear a complete loss of your investment. You should consider the following risks, among others. WE HAVE INCURRED LOSSES FROM INCEPTION AND MAY NEVER GENERATE PROFITS. We have only recently been incorporated and we are still engaged in structuring our management and our proposed operations. Our operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including the lack of significant operating history. There can be no assurance that future operations will be profitable. Revenues and profits, if any, will depend upon various factors, including our ability to acquire horses suitable for pinhooking, to adequately train such horses in order that they achieve their potential, the expertise of our management, the market acceptance of the products offered, costs and general economic conditions. There can be no assurance that we will achieve our projected goals or accomplish our business plans; and such failure could have a material adverse effect on us and the value and price of our securities. BECAUSE OF THE LIMITED EXPERIENCE OF MANAGEMENT IN PINHOOKING AND RACING OF THOROUGHBRED HORSES OUR BUSINESS COULD SUFFER. James D. Tilton, our President and sole employee, currently makes all of our decisions regarding the purchasing, training, racing and selling of our thoroughbred horses. Mr. Tilton has had limited experience in pinhooking and racing of thoroughbred horses. Prior to forming Thoroughbred Interests, Mr. Tilton had pinhooked a total of six horses. There can be no assurance that Mr. Tilton will be able to make the decisions necessary to earn a profit in the business. WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN THE CAPITAL NEEDED TO FINANCE GROWTH AND CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS. We will need additional capital and may not be able to obtain it in which case our ability to continue in business would be materially and adversely affected. We estimate that we require a minimum of approximately $500,000 and a maximum of approximately $1,150,000 to operate for the next 12 months. The minimum of $500,000 is required for operating expenses. The maximum will be required, however, if the Augustine Fund and Mr. Andrew Dyer do not convert their promissory notes into Common Stock of the Company. This estimate of required funds includes the $375,000 due and payable to the Augustine Fund as of January 1, 2002, the $100,000 due and payable to Mr. Andrew Dyer as of January 1, 2002 and $400,000 in estimated operating expenses including office rent, boarding, training and/or racing our horses. There is no guarantee that we will be able to raise any such capital on terms acceptable to us or at all. Such financing may be upon terms that are dilutive or potentially dilutive to our stockholders. If alternative sources of financing are required, but are insufficient or unavailable, we will be required to modify our growth and operating plans in accordance with the extent of available funding. At the present time, we do not intend to obtain any loan financing from a lending institution. If necessary, Mr. Tilton may make a personal loan to us at or below market rates, on terms customarily used by lending institutions in making loans. Mr. Tilton is under no obligation to make any such loans to us. 9
10KSB40/A10th Page of 32TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 10th
If we are required to obtain loan financing, the amount of our profits (if any) will decrease or the amount of our losses will increase due to the interest charged on the loan. Loan financing may subject our operations to restrictions imposed by the lending institution, hindering our ability to operate in the manner best determined by our management and/or Board of Directors, with the potential that such restrictions will impede or prevent our growth and/or negatively impact our level of profits. Additionally, the use of debt financing or leverage would subject us to the risk that any downturns in the thoroughbred industry and any changes in interests rates (if we have an adjustable rate loan) will substantially increase the likelihood that our operations will not be profitable, possibly causing us to become bankrupt or to dissolve the corporation. WE DEPEND ON KEY PERSONNEL AND MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RETAIN THEM. Our future success will depend largely on the efforts and abilities of our management, especially of our current sole officer, employee and director, James D. Tilton, Jr. The loss of the services of Mr. Tilton or the inability to attract additional, experienced management personnel could have a substantial adverse effect on us. We have not obtained a "key man" insurance policy for Mr. Tilton. Our ability to implement our strategies depends upon our ability to attract highly talented managerial personnel. There can be no assurance that we will attract and retain such employees in the future. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO EFFECTIVELY MANAGE OUR ANTICIPATED GROWTH, OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL RESULTS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION WILL BE MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECTED. Our inability to effectively manage our future growth will have a material adverse effect on us. We anticipate that we will have rapid growth in the number of horses that we own. This will place a strain on our managerial, operational, and financial resources. We will initially use outside consultants and specialists to provide thoroughbred consulting, legal counsel and preliminary accounting until such persons are required on a full time or ongoing basis. We currently employ one person, Mr. Tilton. Our future employment of personnel is dependent on the number of horses we obtain. We expect to employ a bookkeeper in the near future. There can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively manage the expansion of our operations, or that our facilities, systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to support our expanded operations. 10
10KSB40/A11th Page of 32TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 11th
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPLY WITH ALL CURRENT AND FUTURE GOVERNMENT REGULATION. Our business operations are subject to all government regulations normally incident to conducting business (e.g., occupational safety and health acts, workmen's compensation statutes, unemployment insurance legislation, income tax and social security laws and regulations, environmental laws and regulations, consumer safety laws and regulations, etc.) as well as to governmental laws and regulations applicable to small public companies and their capital formation efforts. In addition, we are subject to laws and regulations regarding the purchase, sale, breeding, transportation, care, and possibly, racing of horses. Although we will make every effort to comply with applicable laws and regulations, we can provide no assurance of our ability to do so, nor can we predict the effect of those regulations on our proposed business activities. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY WITH OUR COMPETITORS, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO INCREASE REVENUES OR GENERATE PROFITS. Our ability to increase revenues and generate profitability is directly related to our ability to compete effectively with our competitors. There are many competitors in the pinhooking industry. Due to the fact that the majority of pinhooking operations are run by private companies and partnerships, we are unable to state the size or profitability of our competitors. THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT OUR COMMON STOCK WILL BE CLEARED TO TRADE ON THE OVER-THE-COUNTER BULLETIN BOARD. A market maker has filed a Form 211 with Nasdaq to have our Common Stock quoted on the OTC-Bulletin Board. To date, Nasdaq has not cleared our Common Stock to be quoted on the OTC-Bulletin Board and there is no assurance that our Common Stock will ever be quoted on the OTC-Bulletin Board. WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT AN ACTIVE TRADING MARKET WILL DEVELOP FOR OUR COMMON STOCK. There is no public market for our Common Stock and there can be no assurance that a regular trading market for our Common Stock will ever develop or that, if developed, it will be sustained. Therefore, purchasers of our Common Stock should have a long-term investment intent and should recognize that it may be difficult to sell the shares, notwithstanding the fact that they are not restricted securities. There has not been a market for our Common Stock. We cannot predict the extent to which a trading market will develop or how liquid a market might become. 11

Thoroughbred Interests, Inc. and TuneIn Media, Inc. together own the office equipment and furniture. Management believes that this facility is adequate for us for at least the next 12 months. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. We are not a party to any material legal proceedings. However, from time to time we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. Such claim, even if not meritous, would result in the expenditure by us of syndicated financial and managerial resources. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS. No matters were submitted for shareholder approval during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this Report. 12

PART II. ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS. Market Price. There is no trading market for the Company's Common Stock at present and there has been no trading market to date. There is no assurance that a trading market will ever develop or, if such a market does develop, that it will continue. Holders. There are approximately 53 holders of record of the Company's Common Stock. Dividend Policy. We have not had any earnings or profits and have not paid any dividends. Our proposed operations are capital intensive and we need working capital. Therefore, we will be required to reinvest any future earnings in the Company's operations. Our Board of Directors has no present intention of declaring any cash dividends, as we expect to re-invest all profits in the business for additional working capital for continuity and growth. The declaration and payment of dividends in the future will be determined by our Board of Directors considering the conditions then existing financial condition, including the Company's earnings, capital requirements, and other factors. ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. This Annual Report on Form 10-KSB and the information incorporated by reference may include "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27a of the securities act and section 21e of the exchange act. We intend the forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements. All statements regarding our expected financial position and operating results, our business strategy, our financing plans and the outcome of any contingencies are forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth or implied by any forward looking statements. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS REVENUES. Our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2000 was $703,015 compared to $0 for the period from March 25, 1999 to December 31, 1999 The increase in revenues reflect the various sales of thoroughbred horses for the year ended December 31, 2000. We began operations on March 25, 1999 and had no sales for the period from inception to December 31, 1999. OPERATIONAL COSTS. Our operational costs for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $174,649 as compared to $55,720 for the period commencing March 25, 1999 to December 31, 1999. The increase in operational costs of $118,929 is a result of an increase in sales of horses and related costs of an increase in inventory. GENERAL & ADMINISTRATIVE. Our general & administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $285,873 as compared to $38,947 for the period commencing March 25, 1999 to December 31, 1999. The increase in general & administrative expenses of $246,926 is a result of an increase in compensation to our CEO of $90,000 and additional administrative costs from the sale of horses. INTEREST INCOME. Our interest income for the year ended December 31, 2000 was $4,491 as compared to $0 for the period commencing March 25, 1999 to December 31, 1999. The increase is due to interest earned on excess cash in our bank accounts. 13
10KSB40/A14th Page of 32TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 14th
INTEREST EXPENSE. Our interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2000 was $58,800 as compared to $39,500 for the period commencing March 25, 1999 to December 31, 1999. The increase of $19,300 is due to an increase in borrowing by us in 2000 to fund our operations. FINANCIAL CONDITION At December 31, 2000, we had current assets of $835,908 as compared to current liabilities of $953,417. Also at December 31, 2000 we had an accumulated deficit of $409,036 and had a stockholders' deficit of $377,086. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES We had a net decrease of $7,937 of cash for the year ended December 31, 2000. We have received extensions of the maturity dates of our note obligations of $400,000 to January 1, 2002. We estimate that we require a minimum of approximately $500,000 and a maximum of approximately $1,150,000 to operate for the next 12 months. In either case, we will be required to raise additional capital within the next 12 months in order to fund our business. The minimum of $500,000 is required for operating expenses. The maximum will be required, however, if the Augustine Fund and Mr. Andrew Dyer do not convert their promissory notes into Common Stock of the Company. This estimate of required funds includes the $375,000 due and payable to the Augustine Fund as of January 1, 2002, the $100,000 due and payable to Mr. Andrew Dyer as of January 1, 2002 and $400,000 in estimated operating expenses including office rent, boarding, training and/or racing our horses. Although there can be no assurance, we expect that both the Augustine Fund and Andrew Dyer will convert their notes payable into our Common Stock pursuant to their Amended Promissory Notes. Additionally, as of December 31, 2001, we held full title to 19 thoroughbreds and ownership interests, ranging from 20% to 60% in five thoroughbreds. We expect to generate approximately $200,000 to $450,000 in gross profits from the sales of these horses. This projection is based upon our historical performance to date. Specifically, we have pinhooked 12 horses to date and generated gross profits of approximately $275,000.00 from these efforts. After giving effect to all our operating, general and administrative expenses, interest and taxes, however, we still expect to operate at a net loss for the next twelve months. We will therefore be required to seek additional funds and to raise additional capital from public or private equity or debt sources in order to fund our general and administrative costs and expenses, pay off startup loans, support further expansion, meet competitive pressures, or respond to unanticipated requirements. 14
10KSB40/A15th Page of 32TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 15th
There is no guarantee that we will be able to raise any such capital on terms acceptable to us or at all. Such financing may be upon terms that are dilutive or potentially dilutive to our stockholders. If alternative sources of financing are required, but are insufficient or unavailable, we will be required to modify our growth and operating plans in accordance with the extent of available funding. At the present time, we do not intend to obtain any loan financing from a lending institution. If we are required to obtain loan financing, the amount of our profits (if any) will decrease or the amount of our losses will increase due to the interest charged on the loan. Loan financing may subject our operations to restrictions imposed by the lending institution, hindering our ability to operate in the manner best determined by our management and/or Board of Directors, with the potential that such restrictions will impede or prevent our growth and/or negatively impact our level of profits. Additionally, the use of debt financing or leverage would subject us to the risk that any downturns in the thoroughbred industry and any changes in interests rates (if we have an adjustable rate loan) will substantially increase the likelihood that our operations will not be profitable, possibly causing us to become bankrupt or to dissolve the corporation. To the extent we are unable to meet our operating expenses or matured notes payable, we may borrow funds from our president Mr. Tilton or others, or we may attempt to raise capital from large institutional investment equity funds. Mr. Tilton is not legally required to loan any money to us. If we are unable to borrow or raise capital, we will have no choice but to sell thoroughbreds to meet our operating expenses and/or obligations under the matured notes. In the event any of our thoroughbreds have to be sold on an expedited basis, we expect that they would have to be sold at a discount to their fair market price. Any funds generated from sales of horses or from equity investments, if any, in our company that exceeds our operating expenses and debt repayments will be used to purchase additional thoroughbred horses.

Tilton, Jr. Chairman 1999 0 0 0 -- of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President 2000 $90,000(1) 0 0 3,000,000(2) (1) Mr. Tilton has agreed to defer his salary indefinitely. (2) On January 3, 2000, Mr. Tilton was granted 3,000,000 incentive stock options pursuant to our Millennium Stock Option Plan at an exercise price of $0.11. The options are fully vested and currently exercisable. EMPLOYMENT AND CONSULTING AGREEMENT We have an Employment Agreement with James D. Tilton which ends on December 31, 2002. The Agreement provides for the payment of an annual base salary of $90,000 for calendar year 2000, $120,000 for calendar year 2001 and $180,000 for calendar year 2002. The Agreement also provides for an annual incentive bonus of varying percentages based on our annual earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITA. If our EBITA is at least $1,000,000 the bonus is 30% of annual base salary, if it is at least $2,000,000 the bonus is 50% of annual base salary and if it is at least $4,000,000 the bonus is 100% of annual base salary. The Agreement provides for the one-time grant pursuant to our Millennium Stock Option Plan of 3,000,000 incentive stock options to Mr. Tilton at 110% of the fair market value of our Common stock on the date of the grant. When his options were issued on January 3, 2000 we used the last sales price of our common stock for our then most recent private sale, or $.10, to determine the fair market value.

The Agreement further provides for the payment of Mr. Tilton upon the discharge of Mr. Tilton without cause or the resignation of Mr. Tilton for "good cause", or as defined in the Agreement of a lump sum equal to his annual base salary and bonus.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION MATTERS As permitted pursuant to the corporate law of the State of Nevada, our state of incorporation, the Certification of Incorporation requires that we indemnify its directors and officers against certain liabilities and expenses incurred in their service in such capacities to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. These provisions would provide indemnification for liabilities arising under the federal securities laws to the extent that such indemnification is found to be enforceable under, and to be in accordance with applicable law. Furthermore, the personal liability of the directors is limited as provided in our Certificate of Incorporation. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of Thoroughbred Interests, Inc. pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. 17

THOROUGHBRED INTERESTS, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2000 AND 1999 NOTE 1 -- BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION The Company was organized under the laws of Nevada on March 25, 1999. The Company business consists of purchasing, training and sales of thoroughbred horses. The Company has emerged from its development stage in early 2000. The Company incurred a deficit of $134,167 in its development stage. ORGANIZATION COSTS The Company has incurred various expenditures in the formation of its corporate and organizational structure. In accordance with SOP 98-5 these costs will be expensed as incurred. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue is recognized when thoroughbred horses are purchased for cash or approved credit and title is transferred to the purchaser. Collectibility of proceeds is reasonably assured at the time title is passed to the purchaser. Delivery of the thoroughbred horses occurs at the time title is passed to purchaser. The purchaser is responsible for delivery and the ultimate possession of the horses acquired. DEFERRED REGISTRATION COSTS The Company has incurred various costs to prepare and file the required documents for any future stock offering. These costs will be offset against the proceeds of a successful offering, or expensed if unsuccessful. Registration costs include legal, accounting and out-of-pocket expenses applicable to future stock offering. SUBSCRIPTION RECEIVABLE Sales of common stock have occurred whereby the proceeds have not been received, thus the balances have been reflected as an offset to stockholders equity. INVESTMENT IN THOROUGHBRED HORSES The Company's investment in thoroughbred horses are stated at the lower of cost market. Costs of maintaining horses and other direct horse related costs are expensed in the period incurred. MANAGEMENT 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 revenues and expenses. The actual outcome of the estimates could differ from the estimates made in the preparation of the financial statements. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings per share is computed simular to basic earnings per share except the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding. If the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The following potential common shares have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the periods presented because the effect would have been anti-dilutive: F-7

THOROUGHBRED INTERESTS, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 2000 AND 1999 [Enlarge/Download Table] AS OF DECEMBER 31, ------------------------- 2000 1999 --------- --------- Options outstanding under the Company's stock option plan................................................... 3,000,000 0 Common stock issuable upon conversion of Loan payable - related party.......................................... 3,000,000 0 Warrants issued in conjunction with Loan payable - related party.................................................. 1,500,000 0 Common stock issuable upon conversion of Notes payable.... 4,750,000 0 Warrants issued in conjunction with Notes payable......... 2,375,000 0 NOTE 2 -- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company has issued 24,000,000 shares of common stock to its founder at a par value of $.001 for his time and effort in establishing the Company. The founder of the Company has assumed the role of CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors at a salary and a stock option plan subject to the approval by the Board of Directors. The financial statements reflect $90,000 of accrued compensation in accordance with the agreement to be paid upon sufficient cash flow. The employment agreement commenced on January 3, 2000 for a three year period ending December 31, 2002. The base salary under this agreement is as follows: $90,000, $120,000 and $180,000 for the years 2000, 2001 and 2002, respectively. The agreement in addition to scheduled salary increases also provides for incentive bonuses in accordance with prescribed performance levels of the Company. The incentives are based on annual earnings of the Company before deduction of income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBIDA") The bonus will be computed on annual base salary as detailed above at 30%, 50% and 100% of base salary if the EBIDA reaches $1,000,000, $2,000,000 and $3,000,000, respectively. In addition, the CEO has received a grant of incentive stock options pursuant to Company's Millennium Stock Option Plan of three million shares of common stock. The CEO has advanced funds to the Company as a interest bearing 6% per annum secured loan pursuant to a written promissory dated October 31, 2000. The loan is payable in full on October 31, 2003. The security consists of certain horses held in inventory. The loan is convertible into common stock (the "Converted Shares") of the Company at $.10 per share and warrants exercisable into one- half the number of Converted Shares at $.15 per share. Based on an approximate loan balance at December 31, 2000 of $300,000 of principal only, the amount of Converted Shares will be 3,000,000 of common stock and an additional 1,500,000 of common stock upon the exercise of stock warrants for a total of 4,500,000 issued shares. As of December 31, 2000, all accrued interest on the note balance has been paid and has not been added to the loan principal balance. The warrants are first exercisable at the date of conversion into the Converted Shares and expire at the end of five years from such date. The Company used the Black-Scholes model to determine the fair market value of these warrants which is $0. There is no expense recognized for the conversion feature of the loan payable due to the conversion price being equal to the fair value of the Company's common stock. In addition to the loan as discussed above which is pursuant to the promissory note dated October 31, 2000, the CEO has advanced funds to the Company on an informal basis as needed. These funds advanced are unsecured, interest bearing at 6% per annum payable in three years from the date of the advance and not subject to the conversion features of the other funds loaned to the Company. The Company commenced in April 2000 utilizing an office facility leased by the CEO on a informal agreement at $1,352 per month to conduct its business operations. In review of this transaction, the disclosures pursuant to FASB 13 is not required since the Company has no legal commitment for future payment of rent at its option. NOTE 3 -- CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS a.) The Company at its inception issued 24,000,000 shares of common stock to its founder. The services rendered by the founder were valued at the par value of the stock issued and expensed as startup costs. F-8

The fair value is computed as of the date of grant using the following assumptions for grants in 2000: (i) dividend yield of 0% (ii) expected volatility of 0% (iii) weighted-average risk-free interest rate of approximately 6.2%, and (iv) expected life of 10 years. The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding issued under the Stock Option Plan is 9.75 years at December 31, 2000. No compensation expense was recognized as a result of the issuance of stock options during the year ended December 31, 2000. For options granted during the year ended December 31, 2000 where the exercise price equaled the stock price at the date of the grant, the weighted-average fair value of such options was $.05 and the weighted-average exercise price of such options was $0.10.
