NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
1. FORMATION OF COMPANY
1997 Corp. ( a development stage enterprise) (the "Company"), was
incorporated in the state of Delaware on March 17, 1997. It intends to
serve, as a vehicle to effect a business combination with a target business
(not yet identified) which the Company believes will have significant
growth potential. The Company intends to utilize the net proceeds of this
offering, equity securities, debt securities, bank and other borrowing or a
combination thereof in effecting a business combination.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNT POLICIES
The financial statements are prepared on an accrual basis.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make significant
estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount
of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
3. SHAREHOLDER ESCROWED FUNDS
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company ("Continental") is holding
the public offering proceeds and the stock certificates of the public
investors in escrow pursuant to Rule 419 of the Rules and Regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Continental will hold the proceeds
and the stock certificates pursuant to Rule 419 until the approval of a
business combination by the shareholders of theCompany. If a business
combination has not been approved by the shareholders by December 15, 1998
all proceeds will be promptly returned to the shareholders and the stock
certificates will be cancelled.
