                          MERCURY WASTE SOLUTIONS, INC.

                          Notes to Financial Statements
                                  June 30, 1997

Note 1. - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and the instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1997, or any
other period. For further information, refer to the audited financial statements
and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 1996 contained in the
Company's Registration Statement on Form SB-2 (File No. 333-17399.)

Note 2. - Initial Public Offering

On March 5, 1997, the Company sold 1,000,000 shares at $5.00 per share in an
initial public offering, realizing net proceeds of $4,012,017. In April 1997,
the Company closed on the over-allotment for the offering by selling an
additional 95,000 shares at $5.00, realizing net proceeds of approximately
$397,921. In conjunction with the offering, the underwriter was issued a warrant
to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at $6.00 per share.

Upon closing of the offering, the Company's S corporation election was
terminated. As a result, the accumulated deficit balance at March 5, 1997,
totaling $1,062,966, representing losses on which income tax deductions have
been taken at the shareholder level, was reclassified to paid-in-capital.

Note 3. - Income(Loss) Per Share

Net income(loss) per common and common equivalent share is based upon the
weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding
during each period. Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 83, common
stock issued and stock options and warrants granted with exercise prices below
the initial public offering price for the period from January 2, 1996 (date of
inception) through the effective date of the offering (through March 31, 1997)
have been included in the calculations as if they were outstanding for all
periods presented. In periods subsequent to March 31, 1997, common equivalent
shares are included in the calculation if their effect is dilutive using the
treasury stock method.

Note 4. - Pro Forma Information

Pro forma income tax and loss per share data for the periods when the Company
was an S corporation is not presented as it does not differ from the information
in the accompanying statement of operations.

Note 5. - Settlement with U.S. Environmental, Incorporated

As part of the acquisition of U.S. Environmental, Incorporated (USE) on January
2, 1996, the Company was obligated to make payments to USE for each Model 2000
(or 2000B) sold by the Company, with total payments not to exceed $460,000. In
March 1997, the Company settled this obligation for $250,000 by paying $75,000
in cash and the balance of $175,000 in a note. This amount, together with the
amounts already owing the related party ($259,567), are payable pursuant to
notes bearing interest at 10% and payable in installments totaling $11,550 a
month through December 1, 2000. This settlement was an adjustment of the
original purchase price of USE and has been allocated to goodwill.
