1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of business and organization - American Quantum Cycles, Inc., a Florida
corporation, ("The Company") designs, produces, markets, distributes and sells
American-made, high performance V-twin engine cruiser and touring style
motorcycles. These motorcycle products include stock models and motorcycles
built to customer specified configurations. The Company was originally
incorporated on March 20, 1986 as "Norbern, Inc." and was inactive until March
1997 when it began developing and implementing its business and financing plans.
On May 8, 1997 the Company changed its name to American Quantum Cycles, Inc. and
its fiscal year end to April 30. The accompanying financial statements for years
prior to 1998 are presented on an April 30 fiscal year end which does not
require restatement since the Company had no operations prior to March 1997.
Basis of presentation - For years prior to the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999
the Company was considered to be in the development stage. During the current
year the Company commenced planned operations, however, substantial efforts are
still being made to raise capital, enter into dealership agreements and
implement its business plan.
Cash and cash equivalents - For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the
Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of
three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Inventories - Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market, with cost
principally determined under the average cost method.
Property and equipment - Property and equipment are carried at cost.
Depreciation is recorded principally on the straight-line method at rates based
on the estimated useful lives of the assets that range from three to seven
years. The book value of obsolete assets is charged to depreciation expense when
they are scrapped. Profits or losses from the sale of assets are included in
other income. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.
Intangible Assets - Intangible assets consist of licenses and intellectual
rights and are amortized on the straight-line method over fifteen years.
Income taxes - Deferred taxes are recognized for temporary differences between
the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statements and income tax
purposes. The differences relate primarily to depreciable assets (using
accelerated depreciation methods for income tax purposes), the allowance for
doubtful accounts (deductible for financial statement purposes but not for
income tax purposes), stock-based compensation, and net operating loss
carryforwards.
Concentration of credit risk - The Company occasionally maintains deposits in
excess of federally insured limits. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 105 identifies these items as a concentration of credit risk requiring
disclosure, regardless of the degree of risk. The risk is managed by maintaining
all deposits in high quality financial institutions.

1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Sales returns and warranty allowances - The Company establishes an allowance for
product warranties and sales returns based on experience with customers' claims
arising from the sale of defective merchandise and a study of the experiences of
other companies engaged in the sale of similar products. Changes in the
allowance are charged to selling expense.

obtained a license to use certain proprietary technologies including, among
other things, patents, trade secrets, techniques, tooling designs, product
designs, and trademarks. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, as long as the
Company complies with certain other provisions including non-disclosure of the
proprietary technology, the Company has an exclusive license, for motorcycle
applications, in perpetuity for the 4-Valve technology. This technology is used
in connection with the Company motorcycles and bolt-on kits for the Harley
Davidson motorcycles which feature the evolution engine, evolution big twin,
other Harley Davidson clones and aftermarket parts.
5 NOTES PAYABLE AND LINES OF CREDIT
Notes payable at April 30, 1999 consist of:
10% Subordinated Notes - The Company issued nine unsecured promissory notes
dated March 30, 1998 to individuals providing bridge loan financing. The
aggregate principal balance of the notes at April 30, 1999 is $700,000 with
interest payable at 10% at maturity (originally September 30, 1998). The terms
of the loan agreements provide for the Company to issue a total of 35,500 shares
of common stock to the note holders at maturity in order to obtain a favorable
interest rate and repayment terms. Additional interest expense (equal to the
fair value of the common stock to be issued minus the conversion price) is being
recognized over the term of the loans. The note holders of $320,000 of the
outstanding notes subsequently agreed to convert the notes and accrued interest
thereon into common stock at a conversion price equal to the offering price of
shares of the Company's common stock in a proposed public offering as discussed
in Note 8 ("the proposed stock offering"). The note holders will also receive
two common stock warrants for each share of common stock to be received upon
conversion. Note holders representing the remaining $380,000 of the outstanding
notes have agreed to extend the maturity date of their notes until the
completion of the proposed stock offering.

5 NOTES PAYABLE AND LINES OF CREDIT (Continued)
Convertible Debentures - The Company has issued two separate series of unsecured
convertible notes to investors:
Beginning in October 1997, the Company issued forty 8% Subordinated Notes, for
an aggregate of $1,524,500. The notes were scheduled to mature one year from
date of issue and were convertible at $8.00 per share. Interest was also
convertible at the same rate as the principal, at the discretion of the note
holder. As of April 30, 1999 the outstanding principal balance of these notes is
$1,327,000. The note holders of $706,500 of the outstanding notes subsequently
agreed to convert the notes and accrued interest thereon into common stock at a
conversion price equal to the offering price of shares of the Company's common
stock in the proposed stock offering and will also receive one common stock
warrant for each share of common stock to be received upon conversion. Note
holders representing $297,500 of the outstanding notes have agreed to extend the
maturity date of their notes until the completion of the proposed stock
offering. The remaining note holders representing $323,000 of the outstanding
notes have not agreed to convert or extend the maturity date of their notes and
the notes are, therefore, in default.
Beginning in April 1998, the Company issued twenty-seven 7% Subordinated Notes,
for an aggregate of $549,500. The notes were scheduled to mature one year from
the date of issue and were convertible at $8.00 per share. Interest is payable
in cash or convertible at the same rate as the principal, at the discretion of
the Company. A warrant is attached at 10% above the final price of a proposed
stock offering. As of April 30, 1999 the outstanding principal balance of these
notes is $517,000. The note holders of $337,000 of the outstanding notes
subsequently agreed to convert the notes and accrued interest thereon into
common stock at a conversion price equal to the offering price of shares of the
Company's common stock in the proposed stock offering and will also receive one
common stock warrant for each share of common stock to be received upon
conversion. Note holders representing the remaining $180,000 of the outstanding
notes have agreed to extend the maturity date of their notes until the
completion of the proposed stock offering.
Senior Promissory Notes - Between November 1998 and January 1999 the Company
issued thirty-five units at a price of $25,000 per unit. Each unit consisted of
a non-interest bearing, unsecured $25,000 senior promissory note and common
stock warrants for a number of shares of stock determined by dividing $12,500 by
the public offering price of shares of common stock of the Company to be issued
in the proposed stock offering. The warrants are exercisable at the offering
price of the proposed stock offering. The outstanding principal balance of the
senior promissory notes at April 30, 1999 is $870,000.
8% Subordinated Demand Notes - Between January and April 1999 the Company issued
seven unsecured 8% subordinated demand notes for an aggregate principal amount
of $587,000. These notes remain outstanding at April 30, 1999.

Lines of Credit at April 30, 1999 consist of:
Investor Group Line of Credit - In February 1999 the Company contracted with a
group of six individuals for an unsecured line of credit in the aggregate amount
of $500,000. The loans bear interest at 8% per annum plus the note holders

interest are payable upon the completion of the proposed stock offering.
Revolving Line of Credit - In March 1999, the Company contracted for a $750,000
secured line of credit. Interest is payable monthly at 10% plus the lender
received 187,500 shares of common stock valued at $187,500. The loan is secured
by inventory, accounts receivable and general intangibles and matures on June
30, 1999. Borrowing under the agreement is based on firm purchase orders for
motorcycles received by the Company. As of April 30, 1999, the Company had drawn
$220,000 on this line of credit.
Line of Credit - In December 1998, the Company contracted for a $755,000 secured
line of credit. Interest is payable quarterly at 10% per annum plus the lender
received 188,750 shares of common stock valued at $188,750. The loan is secured
by inventory, accounts receivable, general intangibles and equipment and is due
on demand. As of April 30, 1999, the Company had drawn $755,000 on this line of
credit.

The shares of common stock issued to note holders and line of credit lenders, as
discussed above, were valued at the market value at the date of issue. The value
of the shares, which aggregated $1,448,850, has been recorded as a discount from
the face value of the related debt and is being amortized over the term of the
debt using the interest method. During the year ended April 30, 1999, $572,991
of such discount has been amortized and charged to interest expense. These
transactions result in an effective interest rate on the notes payable and lines
of credit of 31.2% and 61%, respectively.

7 LEASES
Capital leases - The Company leases various manufacturing, production, telephone
and computer equipment under capital lease agreements with terms of three to

options at the end of the lease terms.
The following is an analysis of the leased assets included in property and
equipment as of April 30, 1999:

8 CONTINGENCIES
The Company has suffered recurring losses since its inception and at April 30,
1999 has a capital deficiency of $9,421,136 and a working capital deficiency of
$4,580,827. As described in note 5, the Company has negotiated with its lenders
to convert certain loans to common stock and stock warrants and to defer payment
on certain loans until completion of a proposed stock offering planned for July
1999. The proposed stock offering of up to 1,840,000 shares of the Company's
common stock is expected to provide sufficient net proceeds to repay all
delinquent obligations and provide working capital to sustain operations until
such time as positive cash flow and profits can be generated.
Results of operations in the future will be influenced by numerous factors
including technological developments, competition, regulation, increases in
expenses associated with sales growth, market acceptance of the products of the
Company, the capacity of the Company to expand and maintain the quality of its
motorcycles and related services, continued development of the dealer
organization, favorable sourcing of supplies, recruitment of highly skilled
employees and integration of such persons into a cohesive organization, and the
ability of the Company to raise funds and control costs.
Management believes that it will be successful in completing the stock offering
and achieving profitable operations, however, there is no assurance that such
efforts will be successful.

Notes to Financial Statements
9 SECURITY TRANSACTIONS (Continued)
In October and November, 1998 the Company issued 375,350 shares of common stock
valued at $706,660 to management and other employees as performance bonuses.
At various dates between October, 1998 and January, 1999 the Company issued
237,350 shares valued at $913,760 for consulting and other services.
As discussed in note 5, the Company issued 35,500 shares of common stock valued
at $177,500 during December, 1998 to certain 10% note holders to obtain a
favorable interest rate and repayment terms. Additionally, in January and April,
1999, in connection with agreements to provide $2,005,000 in secured and
unsecured lines of credit, the lenders were issued 572,750 shares of common
stock valued at $1,271,350. The value of the shares issued to the 10% note
holders and the line of credit lenders is being amortized as additional interest
expense over the original terms of the debt.
10 PREFERRED STOCK
The Company is authorized to issue up to 2,500,000 shares of $.001 par value
Preferred Stock. Preferred Stock is designated as the "Series A 7% Convertible
Preferred Stock" and has a stated value of $6.00 per share. Dividends of 7% of
the stated value accrue and are payable semi-annually. Each share of Preferred
Stock is convertible into one share of common stock at the option of the
shareholder. No preferred shares have been issued.
11 INCOME TAXES
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting For Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109"). SFAS No. 109 requires that
the Company use the liability method which attempts to recognize the future tax
consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax bases of assets
and liabilities.
At April 30, 1999, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards totaling
approximately $9,400,000 that may be offset against future taxable income
through 2012. No tax benefit has been reported in the accompanying financial
statements, however, because the Company believes there is at least a 50% chance
that the carryforwards will expire unused. Accordingly, a $3,760,000 tax benefit
of the loss carryforward has been offset by a valuation allowance of the same
amount. During the years ended April 30, 1999 and 1998, the valuation allowance
increased by $2,720,000 and $1,040,000, respectively.
The expected tax benefit that would result from applying federal statutory tax
rates to the pretax loss differs from amounts reported in the financial
statements primarily because of the increase in the valuation allowance. The
company paid no income taxes since its inception.

12 LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. All
share and per share data, except shares authorized, have been retroactively
adjusted to reflect a 1,000 for 1 stock split effective March 25, 1997 and a 4
for 1 reverse stock split effective June 3, 1999.
13 STOCK OPTIONS
On May 9, 1997 (and as amended June 3, 1997) the Company entered into a
consulting agreement with Greenstone Financial Corp. ("GFC") to assist the
Company with corporate development and strategic business planning. Under terms
of the agreement, the Company granted GFC an option to purchase up to 62,500
shares of Company common stock based upon the successful completion of a private
placement of Company common stock, with each option exercisable at $16.00 per
share. Also under the terms of the agreement, as amended, the Company granted
GFC an option to purchase 75,000 shares of Company common stock at an exercise
price of $0.40 per share. GFC exercised this option in October, 1998.
On June 15, 1998, the Company adopted the "1997 Stock Option Plan" (the "Plan").
Under the Plan, 750,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance upon
exercise of options granted to management, key employees and consultants. The
plan provides for the granting of either "incentive stock options" or
"non-qualified stock options", as defined under the Internal Revenue Code.
Options may be granted at prices not less than 100 percent of the fair market
value at the date of grant and may be exercisable with a term not exceeding ten
years. As of April 30, 1999, the Company has granted common stock options to
plan participants as follows:

14 COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
As of May 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income". SFAS No. 130
establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and
its components; however, the adoption of this statement had no impact on the
Company's net loss or shareholders' deficit for any of the periods presented in
the accompanying financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires other comprehensive
income to include foreign currency translation adjustments and minimum pension
liability adjustments, which prior to adoption were reported separately in
shareholders' equity.
15 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On June 3, 1999, the Company declared a one for four reverse stock split. All
share and per share data have been retroactively restated in the accompanying
financial statements.
As of June 14, 1999, American Quantum Cycles issued an aggregate of five (5) 8%
subordinated notes in the aggregate principal amount of $284,181. The notes
mature October 1, 1999 with interest and principal payable in cash.
An additional five noteholders have agreed to convert their notes into American
Quantum common stock after the completion of the subsequent public offering.
American Quantum Cycles closed on its secondary offering on September 13, 1999
selling 2,430,000 shares of its common stock at $3.50 per share raising a gross
of approximately $8.5 million. With this financing, American Quantum qualified
for listing on the American Stock Exchange and now trades on the AMEX under the
symbol "AFV". Net proceeds to American Quantum Cycles were $7,291,785 which have
been used for repayment of notes, paying down lines of credit, reducing accounts
payable, inventory purchase to allow for production increases, and working
capital for American Quantum Cycles.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements of American Quantum Cycles and the notes thereto appearing
earlier in this prospectus.
PLAN OF OPERATION
American Quantum Cycles continues to make significant progress in increasing
plant capacity, product development, Dealer network expansion in Q2 FY00 laying
the infrastructure for increased revenues and profits in Q3 FY'00. Two parallel
production lines have been established and equipped. Personnel have been
increased from 38 to 53 with most the increase coming in production and
inventory management. Training has been completed for the new production
personnel and plant capacity is now rated at 80 - 100 motorcycles per month. In
addition, a Regional Sales Manager, VP for Production and an additional Manager
for Quality Assurance have been hired and integrated into the management team.
Production and Inventory personnel will continue to be added throughout Q3 and
Q4 with headcount peaking at around 100 people in order to increase plant
capacity to 200 units per month in Q4.
Production capacity has been further advanced with the initiation of a program
partnering with the Wackenhut Corporation and the State of Florida for the
establishment of American Quantum production in state correctional institutions.
The State of Florida has constructed two 20,000 square foot buildings and the
Wackenhut Corporation is completing the interior construction to American
Quantum's specifications. These facilities will be used by inmate labor to
provide American Quantum with painting, polishing and fiberglass production
services. This is seen as a model program whereby the inmates receive training
and pay (at minimum wage) and American Quantum benefits from significantly
lowered cost-of-goods. Most of the inmate's pay goes for spousal support, child
support and victim restitution. The first facility will launch production in
early February.
Two new product lines are nearing completion and will be introduced to the
market in Q3 FY'00 and Q4 FY'00 respectively. The Touring model (the Pioneer)
has completed design and engineering and is in the final stages of production
rampup on the part of key vendors to support deliver of the first units in
January 2000. American Quantum has utilized state-of-the 3-dimensional CAD
software to design proprietary saddle bags which provide excellent storage
capacity along with styling which follows the unique curves and lines of
American Quantum's frame and fenders. America Quantum has retained leading
engineering experts and has designed proprietary suspension systems, exhaust
pipes and engine electronics for the new Touring model. Orders are now being
taken for January and February deliveries.
The second product line nearing completion is the 96 cubic inch, 4-valve engine.
The 96 cubic inch engine has passed all durability and performance tests. In
tests run at the Orlando Speedworld Dragway, the 96 cubic inch engine (in an
American Quantum standard cruiser motorcycle) reached over 100 mph from a
standing start, on average, in less than a quarter of a mile and around twelve
seconds. The final configuration of the 96 cubic inch engine produced 110 peak
horsepower and 110 peak foot-pounds of torque. This represents a 25% improvement
over American Quantum's 88 cubic inch engine performance and is extremely
competitive in the heavy cruiser and touring motorcycle markets. The 96 cubic
inch engine will enter EPA testing in early January and is expected to be
available for delivery in March of 2000. An electronic ignition has been added
to the 96 cubic inch engine that can vary the spark advance curve for hot and
cold operating conditions and environmental conditions such as atmospheric
16
<PAGE>
pressure. Engineering and development of motorcycle engines will continue in Q3
and Q4 with a focus on the development a 107 cubic inch, 4-valve engine and a
fuel injection, 4-valve engine. These engine products are not expected to be
available for delivery until FY'01.
The number of American Quantum Dealers has been increased to 45 and is on pace
to end FY'00 at around 70. Investment has continued in Internet based sales
support software. American Quantum's proprietary software for allowing a
consumer to design their desired motorcycle configuration and see it portrayed
graphically on a computer screen (CycleDesign) is being ported to the Internet
for consumer use. American Quantum will complete this software development in Q3
FY'00 and will launch an aggressive Internet advertising campaign in Q4 FY'00.
The Internet Advertising campaign will use demographically targeted techniques
and are expected to deliver strong revenues for Q4 FY'00 and Q1 FY'01.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
American Quantum Cycles has transitioned from a development stage company into
an early production company. American Quantum Cycles was originally incorporated
on March 20, 1986 as "Norbern, Inc." and was inactive until March 1997 when it
began developing and implementing its business and financing plans. On May 8,
1997, Norbern, Inc. changed its name to American Quantum Cycles, Inc. and its
fiscal year end to April 30.
As American Quantum Cycles was inactive prior to March 1997, there was no income
and only incidental supply costs and the accrued interest expense from seven
promissory notes totaling $250,000. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 1997, we
had a deficit carry forward of $2,634. During the fiscal year ended April 30,
1998, our efforts were principally devoted to research, development and design
of products, marketing activities and raising capital, which resulted in
cumulative losses of $2,634,345. These losses resulted primarily from
expenditures for general and administrative activities, including salaries and
professional fees for outside services in the amount of $1,164,291, travel and
marketing expenses of $457,590, and accrued interest expense of $187,232 from
the bridge loan and convertible debentures issued.
American Quantum Cycles sustained continuing losses during the fiscal year ended
April 30, 1999 in the amount of $6,786,791. These losses include $5,706,840 in
general and administrative activities, representing training and development of
personnel and process necessary in a development stage operation, and $1,079,951
in accrued interest expense.
American Quantum Cycles moved from a product development focus during the fiscal
year ended April 30, 1999 to low volume production. During the first quarter of
this fiscal year (FY'00), revenues increased and there was a significant
reduction of expenses compared to prior quarters. We sustained losses of
$641,569 during the quarter ended July 31, 1999 as compared to losses of
$1,845,129 during the quarter ended July 31, 1998. Revenues continued to
increase significantly during the second quarter. We sustained losses of
$655,996 for the second quarter ended October 31, 1999.
Revenues in the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998 of $192,856 resulted from the
sale of the initial ten motorcycles produced plus some after-market 4-Valve
engine parts. An additional eight motorcycles were produced, of which two were
used for engineering and regulatory testing, and the remaining six are used for
marketing purposes. Fifty-four (54) motorcycles have been produced during the
fiscal year ended April 30, 1999 for revenues of $959,210 plus $16,570 in
aftermarket parts. Revenues in the quarter ended July 31, 1999 were $343,700 and
revenues in the quarter ended October 31, 1999 were 605,352.
Four hundred and twenty (420) motorcycles have been booked into production slots
based on orders from 45 Dealers. Forty-two motorcycles were produced in Q2 with
eight motorcycles being allocated to marketing purposes and thirty-four being
delivered to Dealers. Production in August and September was constrained due to
tight cash flow as result of a delay of American Quantum's public secondary
offering to late September.
American Quantum Cycles closed on its secondary offering on September 13, 1999
selling 2,430,000 shares of its common stock at $3.50 per share raising a gross
of approximately $8.5 million. With this financing, American Quantum qualified
for listing on the American Stock Exchange and now trades on the AMEX under the
symbol "AFV".
A number of marketing programs were launched in the Quarter. A joint marketing
relationship with Decoma of Troy, MI resulted in the establishment of
17
<PAGE>
co-marketing programs with GMC Truck and Chrysler. An American Quantum, custom
painted motorcycle was co-marketed in a booth at the SEMA (Specialty Equipment
Marketing Association) Show in Las Vegas with GMC's GMT 800 truck. A similar
co-marketing relationship has been established with Chrysler's SUV model. The
legendary racecar driver A.J. Foyt agreed to extend his National Master
Distributor relationship with American Quantum Cycles and also agree to join the
Board of Directors. Mr. Foyt will continue his promotional activities with
American Quantum included appearances at motorcycle shows and rallies and
product endorsements through print, broadcast and Internet media advertisements.
American Quantum Cycles will have to increase monthly production from roughly 20
per month to 125 per month in order to deliver against the 420 outstanding
orders within FY'00. Additional orders are expected to be received in Q3 and
will add to the monthly production requirement. To accomplish this increase in
production, American Quantum will have to add personnel, train personnel, add
tooling, continue to refine production and material handling processes, ensure
the smooth and timely flow of parts from vendors and launch paint, polishing and
fiberglass production at the Wackenhut/State of Florida facilities. There is no
guarantee that the management team will be able to implement this required
increase in the three-month time frame necessary for timely delivery of
motorcycles against outstanding orders. Risks which could prevent successful
delivery of 420 motorcycles include:
. Not recruiting adequate production staff
. Insufficient training of production staff
. Not ordering parts on time
. Too many last minute engineering changes
. Suppliers delivering parts of unacceptable quality
. Suppliers not delivering parts on a timely basis
. Not managing the production staff to produce the quantity and
quality of motorcycles required
. Not establishing an effective Quality Assurance Program
. Inadequate skill and experience in the inmate population available
for the Wackenhut Program
. Unacceptable levels of damage to motorcycles in shipping to Dealers
Consequently, there is no guarantee that we will be successful in producing the
motorcycles that have been ordered.
American Quantum Cycles anticipates that the current fiscal year ending April
30, 2000 will have significant reductions in the losses incurred in the first
three Quarters. American Quantum Cycles expects their first profitable quarter
to occur fourth quarter of fiscal year 2000. Results of operations in the future
will be influenced by numerous factors including technological advancements,
competition, regulation, increases in expenses associated with sales growth,
market acceptance of the products of American Quantum Cycles, the capacity of
American Quantum to expand and maintain the quality of its motorcycle and
related services, continued development of the dealer organization, favorable
sources of supplies, recruitment of highly skilled employees and integration of
such persons into a cohesive organization along with the ability to control
costs and manage cash flow.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since American Quantum Cycles only recently emerged from its development stage,
it has not received any material income from operations. As such, American
Quantum Cycles relies on private sources of financing to support its operations.
As part of its funding and financing, American Quantum Cycles issued three
separate series of convertible notes to investors:
o Beginning in October 1997, American Quantum Cycles issued an aggregate
of forty (40) 8% subordinated notes to 32 investors, in the aggregate
principal amount of $1,407,000. The notes matured one year from date of
issue. Eighteen of the 8% note holders, representing an aggregate of
$756,500 of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 8% notes
agreed to convert the principle balance plus accrued interest of their
respective notes into (i) common stock of American Quantum Cycles at the
a price per share equal to the price per share of the subsequent public
offering; and (ii) warrants to purchase an equal number of shares of
American Quantum Cycles common stock at an exercise price per share equal
to the price per share of the subsequent public offering. American
Quantum Cycles redeemed two of the 8% notes with a principal balance of
$80,000.
Nine of the 8% note holders, representing an aggregate of $247,500 of the
outstanding principal balance of the 8% Notes, agreed to extend the
maturity date of their 8% notes until the close of the subsequent public
offering. American Quantum Cycles intends to repay these notes from the
proceeds of this offering.
The remaining three 8% note holders, representing an aggregate of
$323,000 of the outstanding principal balance of the 8% notes, have not
18
<PAGE>
agreed to either extend the terms of, or convert, their 8% notes.
American Quantum received notice of default from one 8% note holder and
agreed to settlement terms with such note holder.
o Beginning in April 1998, American Quantum Cycles issued an aggregate of
twenty-seven (27) 7% subordinated notes to 25 investors, in return for
which American Quantum Cycles received proceeds of $549,500. The 7% notes
matured one year from the date of issuance and are convertible into
shares of common stock of American Quantum Cycles at $8.00 per share.
Interest is payable in cash or shares of common stock of American Quantum
Cycles, at the discretion of American Quantum Cycles. Seventeen of the 7%
note holders, representing an aggregate of $367,000 of the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of the 7% notes agreed to convert the
principle balance plus accrued interest of their respective notes into
(i) common stock of American Quantum Cycles at the a price per share
equal to the price per share of the subsequent public offering; and (ii)
warrants to purchase an equal number of shares of American Quantum Cycles
common stock at an exercise price per share equal to the price per share
of the subsequent public offering. American Quantum Cycles redeemed two
of the 7% notes that had an aggregate principal balance of $32,500.
Six of the 7% note holders, representing an aggregate of $150,000 of the
outstanding principal balance of the 7% notes, agreed to extend the
maturity date of their 7% notes until the close of the subsequent public
offering. American Quantum Cycles intends to repay these notes from the
proceeds of this offering.
o In March 1998, American Quantum Cycles received aggregate of $700,000
in connection with the issuance of nine (9) promissory notes to nine
investors, which bear interest annually at a rate of 10%. The 10% notes
matured one year from the date of issuance and are convertible into
shares of common stock of American Quantum Cycles at $8.00 per share.
Interest is payable in cash or shares of common stock of American Quantum
Cycles, at the discretion of American Quantum Cycles. All of the 10% note
holders agreed to convert the principle balance plus accrued interest of
their respective notes into (i) common stock of American Quantum Cycles
at a price per share equal to the price per share of the subsequent
public offering; and (ii) two warrants to purchase an equal number of
shares of American Quantum Cycles common stock at an exercise price per
share equal to the price per share of the subsequent public offering.
Under the terms of the notes, American Quantum Cycles has 30 days after receipt
of written notice of default from a note holder to cure the default. If American
Quantum is unable to cure the default or reach satisfactory arrangements with
the note holder who sent such written default, the note holder is entitled to
proceed to protect and enforce his or her rights under this note.
There is a risk that the proceeds from this offering would be insufficient for
American Quantum Cycles to satisfy the payment of these notes. American Quantum
Cycles would attempt to establish a long-term payment plan out of cash flow from
the sale of motorcycles. There are risks that cash flow will be insufficient,
the note holders would not accept a payment plan and that legal action could be
taken against American Quantum Cycles by the holders of the notes in default.
Between November 1998 and January 1999, American Quantum Cycles completed a
private offering of approximately 35 units of its securities to 11 investors
from which American Quantum Cycles received gross proceeds of $870,000. Each
unit consisted of (i) a senior promissory note in the principal amount of
$25,000 and (ii) the right to receive a number of shares of common stock of
American Quantum Cycles determined by dividing $12,500 by the subsequent public
offering price per share of American Quantum Cycles common stock in an
underwritten public offering from which American Quantum Cycles receives at
least $5,000,000 gross proceeds. . American Quantum will use these funds for
costs of goods required for motorcycle manufacturing, research and development,
product development, marketing and administrative expenses through to the time
of the completion of the public offering.
As of June 14, 1999, American Quantum Cycles issued an aggregate of five (5) 8%
subordinated notes in the aggregate principal amount of $284,181. The notes
mature October 1, 1999 with interest and principal payable in cash.
In December 1998, American Quantum Cycles contracted for a secured line of
credit with Skippack Capital Corp. in the amount of $755,000 to use for research
and development, product development, marketing and administrative expenses. The
line of credit accrues interest at a rate of 10% per annum. The line of credit
19
<PAGE>
is evidenced by a secured promissory note. Principal and interest on the line of
credit must be repaid to the line of credit provider upon demand. The entire
amount of the line of credit has been drawn down as of April 30, 1999. This is
not a revolving line of credit and is secured by all of American Quantum Cycles'
assets. If Skippack calls the line of credit, American Quantum Cycles will
attempt to establish a long-term payment plan out of revenue from the sale of
motorcycles.
In February 1999, American Quantum Cycles contracted with seven individuals for
an unsecured line of credit in the aggregate amount of $650,000 use for research
and development, product development, marketing and administrative expenses. The
entire amount of the line of credit was drawn down as of April 30, 1999.The line
of credit accrues interest at a rate of 8% per annum plus an aggregate of
112,500 incentive shares of stock. Principal and interest are to be paid back
after completion of a subsequent public offering. This is not a revolving line
of credit.
In March 1999, American Quantum Cycles contracted with Anchor Capital
Corporation for a $750,000 revolving line of credit to use for inventory and
production expenses. Draw on the line of credit is based per purchase order for
motorcycles from our dealers. Interest accrues at a rate of 10% per annum.
Principal and interest are paid from funds received from the sales of the
motorcycles.
The proceeds from American Quantum Cycles notes and lines of credit have been
used for research and development in the amount of $489,302 and investment in
inventory, equipment, licenses and intellectual rights in the amount of $978,182
during the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998. American Quantum Cycles expended
$608,722 for research and development and $807,885 in equipment, facility
improvements and fixtures during the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999. The
remaining funds raised were used to supply working capital for American Quantum
Cycles operations to date.
American Quantum Cycles closed on its secondary offering on September 13, 1999
selling 2,430,000 shares of its common stock at $3.50 per share raising a gross
of approximately $8.5 million. With this financing, American Quantum qualified
for listing on the American Stock Exchange and now trades on the AMEX under the
symbol "AFV". Net proceeds to American Quantum Cycles were $7,291,785 which have
been used for repayment of notes, paying down lines of credit, reducing accounts
payable, inventory purchase to allow for production increases, and working
capital for American Quantum Cycles.
Year 2000 Disclosure
American Quantum Cycles has investigated what, if any, impact the year 2000
could have on its internal software and operating systems. It is believed by the
management team that American Quantum's operating system (Win NT 4.0) is year
2000 compliant. DealerNet, a proprietary software for designing and ordering
motorcycles at the dealership level, was developed for American Quantum Cycles
in 1998, and is to our knowledge year 2000 compliant. Additionally, integral
software that is currently being purchased and/or developed for American Quantum
Cycles (MRP/ERP, TechNet, & e-commerce), is believed to also be year 2000
compliant. American Quantum Cycles has made efforts to ascertain its
vulnerability should any of its vendors experience year 2000 difficulties.
Should certain vendors become unable to meet American Quantum's material needs,
production could be interrupted, which would in turn adversely affect
operations. In 1999, American Quantum Cycles will attempt to identify, if
possible, multiple vendor sources for product to limit our exposure to vendor's
year 2000 problems. The anticipated costs of American Quantum's year 2000
initiative is not considered material. The internal year 2000 team's mission is
to attempt to ensure that there is no adverse effect on us. While we believe
that every effort is being taken to address all year 2000 concerns, we can not
guarantee that the systems of other companies will be compliant and will not
have a material adverse affect on American Quantum Cycles.
