Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules, and Reports on Form 8-K 15-16 - 2 - PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS - ----------------- A. General Development of the Business - -------------------------------------- Beeper Plus, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 25, 1986. On March 31, 1986, the Company entered into a Plan and Agreement of Merger with Dial-a-Score, Inc. (Dial), a Nevada Corpor- ation, to acquire all of its assets and outstanding shares of Common Stock from its sole shareholder. The Company disseminates sports information utilizing contracted paging services directly to customers nationwide, including Hawaii, Alaska and the Caribbean, through a hand-held alpha-numeric pager called The Sports Page. The Company also utilizes independent distributors to provide The Sports Page to clients in four locations throughout the United States. The distributors in each territory enter into Distribution Agreements which provide that a percentage or minimum as per their contract of gross revenues earned by the distributor is paid to the Company. Also pursuant to the Agreement, the distributor is typically required to pay the Company a minimum monthly fee, thus ensuring a minimum monthly revenue for the Company. On August 5, 1998, the Company made a filing with the Nevada Secretary of State, which reported that the Board of Directors had approved an amendment to the Company's articles of incorporation (the "Articles") changing the Company's name to "Maven Sports Page, Inc." Shortly thereafter, the Company was inform- ed that the ticker symbol for the Company's common stock had been changed from BEPP to MAVN. An amendment to the Articles requires approval of the Company's shareholders, such an amendment to change the Company's name was not submitted to a share- holder vote. It is, therefore, the Company's position that its corporate name continues to be "Beeper Plus, Inc." The Company does not propose to amend the Articles to change the corporate name, and it has authorized necessary actions to be taken to (i) cause the Nevada Secretary of State's records to be correct- ed to reflect accurately the Company's name as "Beeper Plus, Inc." and (ii) change the ticker symbol back to BEPP or to a substantially similar symbol which reflects the correct corporate name. B. Financial Information About Industry Segment - ----------------------------------------------- The Company operates in mainly one industry segment, involving the dissemination of computer data sports information. However, the Company has introduced another product to the industry known as "The Front Page" which involves the dissemination of computer data news information. C. Narrative Description of Businesses - -------------------------------------- The Company has been marketing its sports information service nationwide, in- cluding Hawaii, Alaska and the Caribbean. To date, the Company has continued to enter into additional markets without utilizing distributors. The Company maintains two existing distributorship contracts in Hawaii and New England. - 3 - ITEM 1. BUSINESS (Continued) - ---------------------------- C. Narrative Description of Businesses (Continued) - -------------------------------------------------- The Company, through its contracted paging services throughout the country, com- municates sports information to customers through a hand-held battery operated alpha-numeric pager called The Sports Page. The Company has terminated distrib- utorships in Chicago, Dallas, Maryland, Florida and Northern California, and has started to service these territories directly through contracted paging services. The Sports Page displays a variety of sports data on a four-line LCD screen. Three different wire services feed information to The Sports Page through a series of satellite transmissions that originate at a particular sporting event and are sent to a home-base computer and uplink facility in Las Vegas. From Las Vegas, signals are sent through satellite to transmitters positioned in cities around the country. These local transmitters then relay UHF, VHF and 900 MHz signals to The Sports Page, within a 30 to 150 mile radius of their loca- tion. The Sports Page displays information about sporting events on its LCD screen, including partial and final scores, game schedules, pitching changes, injuries and weather conditions and can also be utilized as a personal pager. The information displayed on The Sports Page is updated as often as every three minutes. The three wire services used by the Company are "The Sports Network" (TSN), "The Sports Wire", and Don Best. The arrangements are not exclusive and the wire services have other customers. The Company is not required to maintain paging licenses. Such licenses to provide personal paging services are held by paging companies that have contracts to provide paging services on behalf of the Company (the Company acts as a reseller of personal paging services). The pagers used by the customers are sold by the Company. The Company intends to continue expansion into other information markets at such time as the demand arises. The Company will be using the same methods of trans- mitting information. On March 23, 1992, the Company signed a joint venture agreement with NDC "National Dispatch Center" located in San Diego, California. Beeper Plus, Inc. and NDC together shall sell and promote the Front Page product. The product name has been changed to "News-Master/Front Page". In February 1993, the Company entered into a contract with National Dispatch Center (NDC) such that NDC will conduct all the monthly billing for all Front Page Subscribers. Beeper Plus, Inc. will maintain and enhance the product and continue in sales and mar- keting. The types of news provided in the "The Front Page" service include headline and top story updates, weather forecasts, daily business reports, daily sporting event results and television listings and weekly entertainment head- lines and listings. The information sources utilized by the "The Front Page" service include various wire services such as U.P.I. and T.S.N. Information up- dates are provided in excess of fifty times a day. - 4 - ITEM 1. BUSINESS (Continued) - ---------------------------- C. Narrative Description of Businesses (Continued) - -------------------------------------------------- Accessing the Sports Information -------------------------------- Access to the Company's sports information is designed with an eye towards con- venience. The Sports Page provides immediate sports information, updated weather and racing results. For instance, during the professional and college football season, the scores of every professional game and the most actively watched college football games are displayed on the pager throughout the course of the event. The Sports Page alerts the customer when a new score is received by displaying a message of the most current score and team names of the contestants. Upon being alerted by the pager, the customer presses a button on the pager and the desired team name and score is displayed. This same process is utilized to alert the customer to injuries, weather conditions, racing results, hockey results, short stories related to sports events, statistics, probable pitchers for baseball, results of boxing matches and other sports news. Market and Marketing -------------------- Currently the Company has no intention to engage any distributor for any new territory. The Company has been and will be marketing its products directly. The Company will continue to rely on current distributors and their ability to successfully market The Sports Page product in their territories. The Sports Page has received national recognition in newspapers and magazines throughout the country. New Products ------------ The Company is continuing to research new products and improve existing products, including providing wagering tips by subscription service to hand held beepers and by telephone 900 line. Competition ----------- The dissemination of sports information is a competitive industry. There are a number of entities which could be considered direct or indirect competition with the Company in disseminating sports information. The Company, at this time, has identified several other companies in direct competition which disseminate sports information by virtue of a hand-held pager, one of which is a former terminated distributor of the New York, New Jersey, and Philadelphia territory. Indirect competition comes from cable television sports channels, commercial television sports new programs, sports information periodicals, the sports sec- tion of newspapers, radio, direct dial "900" score lines and online computer services. Management ---------- An annual meeting of shareholders was held on March 20, 1998 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The following persons were elected as Directors of the Company until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified: Basil B. Newton, May C.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT (Cont) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (iii) As discussed in note (ii) above, Mr. Buckle may be deemed the beneficial owner of the Company's common stock held by MEI. In addition to MEI's stock holdings, Mr. Buckle is the record owner of 80,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Mr. DeRenzo disclaims beneficial ownership of the Company's common stock owned by MEI and he has advised the Company that as a director and President of MEI, he has made no voting or investment decisions regarding Company stock owned by MEI.

(i) In addition to Mr. Buckle's direct ownership of 80,000 shares of the Company's common stock, he may be deemed the beneficial owner of 1,967,013 shares of such common stock owned by MEI, which would constitute an aggre- gate of 47.74% of the outstanding common stock. (ii) Mr. DeRenzo, a director and President of MEI, disclaims beneficial own- ership of the Company's common stock held by MEI. ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS - -------------------------------------------------------- At June 30, 1998, the Company owed one shareholder a total of $16,000, $10,000 was repaid during the year ended June 30, 1998. This loan has been classified as a current liability, as no specific due dates have been determined. This loan does not provide for interest payment and its terms are as favorable to the Company as those which could have been obtained from a third party in an arm's length transaction. On August 17, 1998, the Company obtained a $160,000 line of credit with Commun- ity Bank of Nevada (the "Line of Credit"), secured by a Company certificate of deposit in the same amount. On September 4, 1998, Maven Properties, Inc. (MPI), a related party to MEI, borrowed $100,000 from the Company to satisfy an obli- gation of MEI. The note, at 8% interest per annum, is due on November 4, 1998 and lists security for the loan as the property located at 1711 E Desert Inn Road, Las Vegas, NV 89109. The note refers to a Deed of Trust executed by MPI on this property, however, no Deed of Trust has been recorded with the Clark County Recorders office. The Line of Credit was used for this transaction. See "ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT" herein for a discussion of relationships which certain directors and executive officers of the Company have with MEI. - 14 - ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS (Continued) - ------------------------------------------------------------------- It is the position of the Company's Board of Directors that neither it nor the Company's President authorized the Line of Credit, the pledging of the certif- icate of deposit, or the loan to MPI to satisfy the obligation of MEI. It is the position of Mr. DeRenzo, the President and a director of both the Company and MEI, that neither he, in his respective positions with the two companies, nor the MEI Board of Directors approved any of the transactions described above. At a meeting on October 12, 1998, the Board of Directors removed Rodd Buckle and the Secretary/Treasurer from their executive officer positions with the Company and terminated their signature authority over Company bank accounts. Also at that meeting, the Board of Directors appointed Basil B. Newton and Thomas J. Neavitt as directors to fill vacancies on the Board and appointed Mr. Neavitt as Secretary and Treasurer of the Company. Thereafter, the Board of Directors passed resolutions formally censuring Mr. Buckle based on the Board's determination that Mr. Buckle took, or caused to be taken, the following actions without Company authorization: (i) payments by the Company to Mr. Buckle; (ii) issuance and use of Company credit cards; (iii) change of Company bank accounts and designation of signatories on the accounts; and (iv) procuring the Line of Credit, pledging the Company's certificate of deposit and making the Loan to MPI, as discussed above.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Notes to Financial Statements For the Years Ended June 30, 1998, 1997, and 1996 NOTE 10 - Subsequent Events: - ---------------------------- As of August 31, 1998, the Company has entered into an agreement with Edge Capital Investment, LLC to coordinate a campaign to raise additional invest- ment capital in the one to two million dollar range. In September of 1998, the Company began providing wagering tips by subscrip- tion service to a hand held beeper and by telephone 900 line. On August 5, 1998, the Company made a filing with the Nevada Secretary of State, which reported that the Board of Directors had approved an amendment to the Company's articles of incorporation (the "Articles") changing the Company's name to "Maven Sports Page, Inc." Shortly thereafter, the Company was informed that the ticker symbol for the Company's common stock had been changed from BEPP to MAVN. An amendment to the Articles requires approval of the Company's shareholders, such an amendment to change the Company's name was not submitted to a share- holder vote. It is, therefore, the Company's position that its corporate name continues to be "Beeper Plus, Inc." The Company does not propose to amend the Articles to change the corporate name, and it has authorized necessary actions to be taken to (i) cause the Nevada Secretary of State's records to be corrected to reflect accurately the Company's name as "Beeper Plus, Inc." and (ii) change the ticker symbol back to BEPP or to a substantially similar symbol which reflects the correct corporate name. On August 17, 1998, the Company secured a line of credit with Community Bank of Nevada (the "Line of Credit") in the amount of $160,000, maturity date August 13, 1999, secured by Certificate of Deposit in the amount of $160,000. $160,000 has subsequently been drawn on the line of credit. On September 4, 1998, Maven Properties, Inc. (MPI, a related party to Maven Enterprises, Inc. (MEI), a 45.87% shareholder in the Company, borrowed $100,000 from the Company to satisfy an obligation of MEI. The note, at 8% interest per annum, is due on November 4, 1998 and lists security for the loan as the prop- erty located at 1711 E Desert Inn Road, Las Vegas, NV 89109. The note refers to a Deed of Trust executed by MPI on this property, however, no Deed of Trust has been recorded with the Clark County Recorders office. The Line of Credit was used for this transaction. - 29 - NOTE 10 - Subsequent Events (Continued) - --------------------------------------- It is the position of the Company's Board of Directors that neither it nor the Company's President authorized the line of Credit, the pledging of the certifi- cate of deposit, or the loan to MPI to satisfy the obligation of MEI. It is the position of Mr. DeRenzo, the President and a director of both the Company and MEI, that neither he, in his respective positions with the two companies, nor the MEI Board of Directors approved any of the transactions described above. On October 12, 1998, the Board of Directors reappointed Basil B. Newton and appointed Thomas J. Neavitt as directors to fill two vacancies on the Board. Also on that date, the Board removed Rodd Buckle and Herb Jensen from all officer positions which they held with the Company and appointed Mr. Neavitt as Secretary and Treasurer. - 30 - EX-27 2 ARTICLE 5 FIN.
