NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements are unaudited; however, in the
opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of
financial position and results for the stated periods have been included. These
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Results for interim periods are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for an entire fiscal
year. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto as of and
for the period ended December 31, 1996.
Income Taxes
The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109
("FAS 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes." FAS 109 is an asset and liability
approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities
for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in
the Company's financial statements or tax returns. The Company has net operating
loss carry forwards of approximately $9,500 available to reduce any future
income taxes. The tax benefit of these losses, approximately $3,800 has been
offset by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of its realization.
Deferred Registration Costs
As of March 31, 1997, the Company has incurred deferred registration
costs of $80,673 relating to expenses incurred in connection with the Proposed
Distribution (see Note 2). Upon consummation of this Proposed Distribution, the
deferred registration costs will be charged to equity. Should the Proposed
Distribution prove to be unsuccessful, these deferred costs, as well as
additional expenses to be incurred, will be charged to operations.
Net Loss Per Share
Net loss per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Page 7
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Organization and Business Operations. Paragon Acquisition Company,
Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware on June 19, 1996 to serve as a
vehicle to effect a merger, exchange of capital stock, asset acquisition or
other business combination (the "Business Combination") with an operating
business (the "Target Business"). At March 31, 1997, the Company had not yet
commenced any formal business operations and all activity to date relates to the
Company's formation and proposed fund raising. The Company's fiscal year end is
December 31.
The Company's ability to commence operations is contingent upon its
ability to identify a prospective Target Business and raise the capital it will
require through the issuance of equity securities, debt securities, bank
borrowings or a combination thereof. The Company intends to obtain adequate
financial resources through the registration of a distribution of shares of its
Common Stock and Subscription Rights to its shareholders (the "Distribution").
The Subscription Rights will entitle the holder to purchase two (2) shares of
Common Stock of the Company for each Subscription Right held for a purchase
price to be determined by the Company's Board of Directors at the time a
Business Combination is identified, such price to be not more than $2.00 per
Subscription Right.
Subscription Rights will not be exercisable until after a
Post-Effective Amendment to the Form S-1 Registration Statement to be filed by
the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission describes a Business
Combination, establishes the Subscription Price and the number of Subscription
Rights which may be exercised in such Subscription Period and specifies the
Subscription Period established by the Company. The Shares to be distributed to
the shareholders, the Subscription Rights and any Shares issuable upon exercise
of Subscription Rights will be held in escrow and may not be sold or transferred
until the Company has consummated a Business Combination. After the Business
Combination is consummated, the Shares will be released from escrow.
Due to the terms of the Distribution, the Company has not established a
time period within which to exercise the Subscription Rights as such exercise is
dependent upon the identification of a Target Business. The Company anticipates
that, due to the time constraints imposed on the management of the Company, it
is not possible to predict the length of the identification process.

3. Commitment. The Company presently occupies office space provided by
a stockholder. Such stockholder has agreed that, until the acquisition of a
Target Business by the Company, it will make such office space, as well as
certain office and secretarial service, available to the Company, as may be
required by the Company from time to time at no charge.
4. Preferred Stock. The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares
of preferred stock with such designations, voting and other rights and
preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.
5. Common Stock. On June 25, 1996 the company issued 2,900,000 shares
of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, to PAR Holding Co., LLC for a
consideration of $150,000. On March 6, 1997 the Company issued a further 514,191
shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, to St. Lawrence Seaway
Corporation for a total consideration of $5,141.
