                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. The accompanying unaudited financial statements, which are for interim
periods, do not include all disclosures provided in the annual financial
statements. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and the footnotes thereto included in Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997 of Imatec, Ltd. (the "Company"),
as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The December 31, 1997
balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not
include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

2. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements contain all adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature)
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements. The results of
operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

3. Loss per share was computed based upon the weighted average number of
common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the three and
six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1998. Fully-dilutive loss per common share
has not been presented because it was anti-dilutive.

In February 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share",
which changes the calculations and disclosures of earnings per share. As of
January 1, 1997 the Company adopted Statement No. 128 without material effect.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
        CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company was organized on November 17, 1988 and is in the development
stage. To date, the Company's activities have primarily consisted of research
and development activities with respect to the development of the Company's
technology and an Imatec 20/20 System for the medical diagnostic imaging
field. During this time, the Company has received only minimal revenues from
limited non-recurring consulting activities. The Company has ceased
development of the Imatec 20/20 System and has refocused its efforts on the
licensing of the Company's proprietary technology for imaging and other
applications and the conduct of litigation in defense of its patents.

The Company believes, based upon its operating plan, that the Company's
available cash resources will be sufficient for the Company :(i) to engage in
licensing the Company's technology for medical diagnostic imaging products
such as scanners, cameras and image reproduction systems, (ii) to engage in
marketing activities to facilitate the licensing of the Company's technology,
(iii) to continue research and development activities with respect to other
applications of the Company's technology in other imaging fields, such as
graphic arts, computer, cinematography and television/video, and (iv)
otherwise conduct its operations at least through the 12 months ending June
30, 1999.

upon the marketplace's reaction and requirements to implement the Company's
technology.

to significantly change the number of employees.

1997 to $167,856 and $349,939 in 1998. Most of this decrease is the result of
decreased personnel and professional fees.
