derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures
required by generally accepted accounting principles.

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
six months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the full year.

2. LOSS PER SHARE

Basic loss per share was computed based upon the weighted average number of
common shares and common share equivalents outstanding. Dilutive loss per common
share has not been presented because it was anti-dilutive.

3. PREFERRED STOCK

The Board of Directors have designated, subject to stockholder approval, a Class
A preferred stock, convertible into common stock at $1.50, per share.

4. ACQUISITION

On May 30, 2000, the Company agreed, subject to closing conditions, to acquire
the assets of Sequel Technology Corporation (Sequel) in exchange for 15,000,000
shares of the Company's common stock, subject to adjustment, and the assumption
of liabilities of Sequel, of approximately $2,000,000. The Company has also
agreed to lend Sequel up to $500,000, with interest at 10%, per annum.
Subsequent to June 30, 2000, the Company incurred additional expenses of
approximately $55,000.

ITEM 2. PLAN OF OPERATION


The Company was organized on November 17, 1998. The Company was involved in
significant patent litigation against Apple Computer Corp. ("Apple"), as
discussed in Item 1 of Part II herein. As the litigation has been resolved, the
Company believes, based upon its internal budgets, that its available cash
resources will be sufficient for the Company to either: (a) continue its
existing business by: (i) engaging in licensing the Company's technology and
Imatec 20/20 System developed for the medical diagnostic imaging field to
manufacturers of medical diagnostic imaging products such as scanners, cameras
and image reproduction systems, (ii) engaging in marketing activities to
facilitate the licensing of the Company's technology and its Imatec 20/20
Systems, and (iii) conduct its current operations at least through the year
ending June 30, 2001, as originally planned; or (b) assuming the Sequel
acquisition closes, to pursue Sequel's business. The Company has no plans to
pursue its historical business plan if the acquisition closes as scheduled.

The Company does not intend to utilize any cash resources towards research and
development or the purchase and/or sale of any significant equipment, except for
expenses in connection with the acquisition and termination of its license
agreement. In addition, assuming the acquisition occurs, the Company will hire
all of Sequel's employees.

General and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30,
2000 increased by $6,408 from $39,418, respectively, from $214,621 and $451,262
in 1999 to $221,029 and $490,680, respectively, in 2000. These increases
resulted from increased litigation expenses net of decreases in other expenses.
The Company is continuing to reduce general and administrative expenses.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, interest income decreased by
$3,639 and $6,607, respectively, from $29,611 and $62,074 in 1999 to $25,972 and
$55,467 in 2000, respectively, resulting from the use of marketable securities
and cash.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has been in the development stage and, primarily as a consequence of
expenses incurred in connection with research and development activities, at
June 30, 2000, the Company had accumulated stockholders' deficit of $7,031,477.
The Company has continued to incur losses since June 30, 2000.

As a result of the outcome of the Apple litigation, the Company conducted a
search for a transaction designed to enhance stockholder value and has selected
Sequel Technology Corporation, a network and internet resource management ,
allocation and utilization company. The Company has entered into an agreement,
subject to closing conditions, to acquire the assets and operations and assume
the liabilities of Sequel in exchange for common stock, subject to the closing
conditions. The acquisition will not require any cash outlay, except for
expenses of the transaction. The Company believes that the remaining cash, after
the payment to terminate the license agreement of $500,000 and the expenses of
the acquisition of approximately $182,000, will be sufficient to sustain the
Company through at least June 30, 2001 or until anticipated financing of Sequel
is obtained.

<PAGE>

Assuming the closing conditions are not met, the Company believes that the
remaining balance from their initial public offering will be sufficient for the
Company to sustain its business plan through at least June 30, 2001, although
there can be no assurance that such balance will be sufficient to finance the
Company's operations for such period.

FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

Statements contained in this report regarding the Company's future operations,
strategy, future performance and results and the anticipated liquidity are
forward looking and therefore are subject to certain risks and uncertainties,
including those discussed herein. In addition, any forward-looking information
regarding the operations of the Company will be affected by whether or not the
acquisition occurs. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in its plan of operation.


PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In February 1998, the Company and an officer filed a patent infringement
complaint for $1.1 billion against Apple Computer Corp. (Apple) in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging
infringement on certain of the Company's patents. In 1999, Apple filed motions
to dismiss and for summary judgement. In January 2000, the Court granted Apple's
motions, held that the inventions, which are the subject of the patents had been
previously assigned and held a certain system does not infringe.

The Company and the officer have appealed the decision to the United States
Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and believe the court erred in
determining the previous assignment and incorrectly construed the claim of the
patents.

In addition, Apple filed a motion to recover attorney's fees of approximately
$1,700,000. The Company and the officer have vigorously contested the motion and
believe the action for fees is without merit.

On May 13, 2000, the motion for attorney's fees was overturned.

The board of directors have designated, subject to stockholder approval, a Class
A preferred stock, convertible into $1.50, per share.

New York, NY

                         INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT


         We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Imatec, Ltd. as of
June 30, 2000, and the accompanying statements of operations, stockholders'
equity and cash flows for the three months and six months then ended. These
interim financial statements are the responsibility of the company's management.

         We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is
the expression of an opinion regarding the interim financial statements taken as
a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

         Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements in order
for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
