Current Outlook as listed on the corporate website:
http://www.zane.com/zane_news.html
Zane Publishing Inc. is currently in the process of undergoing a complete management change. It is planned that this change will take the company in a dynamic new direction allowing it to consider a range of new investment opportunities and investment proposals.
The plans being discussed and considered for the company's future are potentially focusing on a significant involvement in Internet related projects internationally, and may extend to a number of other more traditional fields of investment. The individuals likely to head up the new management structure, are significant holders of Zane stock, and have considerable experience in launching, and developing new Internet related projects.
For 2006 and 2007
Premier Management Limited, the controlling stockholder in Zane Interactive Publishing Inc., is now in the process of implementing the change of management structure that will allow Zane to take advantage of investment opportunities that present themselves internationally, as well as within the United States itself.
The Principals of Premier Management have been involved with Internet related projects since 1995 and property related projects since the 1970's. They now consider the Internet investment market to have stabilized sufficiently to provide an interesting, and commercially feasible environment in which to consider further investment.
At the same time they are also interested to consider all commercially credible and financially feasible opportunities and proposals that are offered to them.

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 8, 2000
Zane Interactive Publishing, Inc. (OTCBB:ZANEE) today announced it has simultaneously completed the acquisition of three established British Internet and software companies, it (and its wholly-owned subsidiary Zane Publishing, Inc.) has emerged from Chapter 11, and it has issued stock and completed a reverse stock split per the provisions of its Plan of Reorganization.
With the completion of these acquisitions and its restructuring, Zane will now focus upon using its extensive library of grades PreK-12+ educational and reference software titles as a foundation to become a leading content publisher, aggregator and supplier to the U.S., European, and International markets. According to President Reed F. Bilbray, "the company has identified opportunities to make its content available to established Internet, interactive television, cable, broadband and wireless operators around the world, while continuing to develop and publish educational and reference products for students and teachers."
British-based businessman Nicholas Tee has acquired approximately 86% of Zane's stock via a reverse merger of his three Internet and software companies into Zane. In addition to its wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, the well known educational software publisher Zane Publishing, Inc., Zane now has three new wholly-owned British subsidiaries: Yorkdale, Ltd., the owner of an Internet shopping portal and specialized European Internet search engine, Mayflower Computers, Ltd. (d/b/a CD Imports) a specialist European software distributor, and Megarom Publishing, Ltd., a specialist software publisher.
Zane (and its wholly owned subsidiary Zane Publishing, Inc.) has also officially emerged from bankruptcy in accordance with the provisions and requirements of its confirmed Plan of Reorganization, as modified, in In re: Zane Interactive Publishing, Inc. Case No. 398-39860 in the jointly administered cases of Zane Publishing, Inc. Case No. 398-39859, IN THE UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS, DALLAS DIVISION. The order of confirmation was entered on January 21, 2000 and all closing requirements were met on May 4, 2000.
Zane issued common shares held in escrow on April 20, 2000 as part of the company's Plan of Reorganization. On May 4, 2000, all conditions to release the escrow were met. As a result the company has issued a total of 21,785,350. The number of common shares held are 395,000 (1.8%) by Zane's public shareholders (reflecting a 1:22.8 reverse split as directed in the Plan of Reorganization and to be deemed effective on May 19, 2000); 531,350 (2.4%) by Halter Financial Group of Dallas, Texas which has been engaged as a strategic financial advisor; 2,105,000 (9.7%) by Zane's former creditors; and 18,754,000 (86.1%) by Nicholas Tee. Approximately 2,500,000 or 11.5% of all issued and outstanding common shares now constitute public float.
Zane's common stock is currently traded on the OTC Bulletin Board maintained by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. As Zane does not presently file annual and periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") its securities will become ineligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board beginning May 17, 2000. The securities will thereafter be quoted on the Pink Sheets maintained by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. Zane intends to register its securities under the Exchange Act so as to provide for their quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board. A registration of securities under the Exchange Act is subject to review by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Zane shall attempt to register its securities under the Exchange Act as soon as practicable and thereafter become eligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board.
