                                                   ----------
($000s, except per share amounts)             2009          2008
                                              ----          ----

Net loss                                     ($620)      ($1,774)

Loss per share (basic & diluted)            ($0.02)       ($0.06)

Total assets                                  $795       $12,193

Total long-term financial liabilities       $6,464        $6,677



In light of the ongoing dispute with its business partner on the i-vu project,
it is clear that the i-vu project will not become economic. Accordingly, the
Company discontinued the operations related to the i-vu project, with all
inventory and deferred charges related to the discontinued operations being
written off as impaired during 2008. The results of operations and financial
position of the i-vu project have been segregated and presented separately as
discontinued operations in the Company's consolidated financial statements. As a
result, no revenues, cost of goods sold, gross profit or selling and marketing
expenses are presented in the Company's income statement for 2008. Very modest
sales occurred in the first quarter of 2009 as the Company was trying to resolve
the i-vu situation and restart its distance learning business.


Loss from discontinued operations was $293 thousand in Q1 of 2009 versus $1,262
thousand in Q1 of 2008. While the assets related to the i-vu project were
written off in 2008, criteria had not been met as at March 31, 2008 to
extinguish a liability of $10,851 thousand related to this project. Management
considers it unlikely that the Company will have to fulfil this other liability;
and the other liability may be taken into income in a future period. Settlement
discussions are at a very advanced stage on the i-vu legal actions and, in light
of the filing for liquidation of i-vu's UK parent, the parties have agreed in
principle to discontinue the actions and provide mutual releases with no
payments to each other. A formal settlement agreement is at the draft stage.
