NOTES TO THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED FEBRUARY 29, 1996 AND FEBRUARY 28, 1995
1 BUSINESS AND FORMATION OF THE COMPANY
Gull Foods CC was registered in February 1985 and conducts the business of
a multi - disciplinary convenience food manufacturer.
2 SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with Generally
Accepted Accounting Practice in the United States of America, on the
historical cost basis and incorporate the following significant accounting
policies:
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The functional currency is that of South African Rand. Accordingly the
following rates of exchange have been used for translation purposes:
* Assets and liabilities are translated to United States Dollars using
the exchange rates at the balance sheet date
* Common stock is translated to United States Dollars using the
historical rates at date of acquisition.
* Revenues and expenses, gains and losses are translated to United
States Dollars using the weighted average exchange rates during the
year.
The resultant translation adjustments are reported in the component of
Stockholders' investment designated as "Foreign currency translation
adjustments".
FOREIGN ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Transactions in foreign currencies arise as a result of plant, equipment
and raw materials purchased from foreign countries.
Transactions in foreign currencies are accounted for at the rates ruling at
transaction date. Exchange gains and losses are charged to the income
statement during the period in which they occur. Foreign assets and
liabilities of the company which are not denominated in South African Rand
are converted into South African Rand at the rates ruling at financial year
end or the rates of forward cover purchased.

NOTES TO THE AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED FEBRUARY 29, 1996 AND FEBRUARY 28, 1995
INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost
is determined on the following basis:
* Raw materials and consumables are valued at actual cost.
* Work in progress and finished goods are valued at direct raw material
cost plus labour costs and related manufacturing overhead expenses.
* Redundant and slow moving inventory is identified and written down
with regard to its estimated economic or residual value.
PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Plant, machinery, vehicles, equipment, furniture and fittings and kitchen
equipment is depreciated on the straight line basis so that the cost of the
assets are written off over their estimated useful lives.
The following rates are considered appropriate:
Period
in years
--------
Plant, machinery and equipment 5
Vehicles 5
Furniture and fittings 10
GROSS REVENUE
Gross revenue comprises the gross invoiced value of sales in respect of
trading operations before discounts, and excludes value added taxation. The
company recognizes revenue on the accrual basis upon delivery of the
products to the customers.
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense is based on reported earnings before income taxes.
Deferred income taxes represent the impact of temporary timing differences
between the amounts of assets and liabilities recognized for financial
reporting purposes and such amounts recognized for tax purposes. Deferred
taxation is provided on the comprehensive basis and is measured by applying
currently enacted tax laws.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
As at the end of February 1996 the carrying value of accounts receivable
and accounts payable approximate their fair value.

9 INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards no. 109 "Accounting for Income Tax" ("SFAS 109"), an asset and
liability method. SFAS 109 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets
and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary
differences between the tax bases and financial reporting bases of the
company's assets and liabilities. In addition, SFAS 109 requires the
recognition of future tax benefits, such as net operating loss carry
forwards, to the extent that realization of such benefit is more likely
than not.
The provision for income tax charged to continuing operations was as
follows:
