GENERAL

       ZEROS USA, Inc., a Texas corporation (the "Company" or "ZEROS"), seeks
to become a reporting company and is filing this Form 10-SB on a voluntary
basis.  The Company intends to voluntarily file periodic reports even if its
obligation to file such reports is suspended under the Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act").


ITEM 1.       BUSINESS

GENERAL

       ZEROS was organized in November 1996, for the purpose of selling
licenses and equipment, and providing licensee support services, in connection
with the Zero-emission Energy Recycling Oxidation System (the "ZEROS System").
The ZEROS System is a closed, waste disposal and energy production system which
processes toxic and non-toxic waste and recycles the processed waste into
marketable energy, carbon dioxide products, brine and other products.  The
waste processing is performed with zero emissions and is an alternative to the
traditional "smokestack" incineration.  The Company holds an exclusive license
to sell licenses and equipment in connection with the ZEROS System technology
to customers pursuant to a Master License Agreement (the "Master License
Agreement"), entered into by and between the Company and M, Ltd., a Bahamian
business entity and the owner of the rights to the ZEROS System technology.

ORGANIZATION AND HISTORY

       The Company was organized in Texas on November 12, 1996.  On June 30,
1997 the Company merged with  ZEROS USA, Inc., a Utah corporation incorporated
on February 14, 1996, formerly known as Gunner Holdings, Inc. ("Gunner").
Pursuant to the terms of such merger, each shareholder of Gunner received one
share of common stock of the Company, $.001 par value per share ("Common
Stock"), for each share of Gunner common stock held by such shareholder.

       Prior to the merger, Gunner was a private corporation with 14.9 million
issued and outstanding shares of common stock held by shareholders other than
the Company.  Such shares of common stock were held by the Agri Capital Trust,
the Star Trust and the Gunner Trust. On March 15, 1997, immediately prior to the
merger, Gunner effected a one for ten shares reverse split of its common stock,
reducing to approximately 1.5 million of its shares of outstanding common stock.
Following the Merger, the three trusts distributed shares to an aggregate of 163
beneficiaries. At that time, Steve Clark, a director and chief executive officer
of the Company, remained the controlling shareholder of the Company with an
80.3% voting interest.

       Steve Clark formed M, Ltd., in 1993 primarily to manage revenues derived
from international projects using his patents, technologies and systems and to
own, develop and market his various inventions to be used in the oil and gas
industry.  Mr. Clark initially developed the predecessor to the ZEROS System
based on mature technologies. This technology has evolved from operational
facilities since 1983 performing environmental restoration for oil industry
clients. Mr. Clark conveyed all rights to the predecessor to the ZEROS System to
M, Ltd., in 1993.  M., Ltd., continued further development of the technology
into the ZEROS System.   Mr. Clark is the majority shareholder of M, Ltd., and
UCBM Management, a Bahamian company ("UCBM"), provides the officers and
directors.  Mr. Clark is neither an officer nor a director of M. Ltd.  Mr. Clark
has no ownership interest in UCBM, nor any rights to management of UCBM.

       In November 1996, M, Ltd., entered into the Master License Agreement with
the Company, providing the Company with the exclusive right and license to sell
operating licenses, to sell or lease through related parties ZEROS System
equipment to customers and to use M, Ltd.'s proprietary marks, indicia and
information regarding patents in connection therewith.  The license covers an
unlimited geographical area and includes any and all territories, foreign and
domestic.  The Company agreed to pay M, Ltd., a master license fee in the
aggregate amount of $16.0 million, due and payable on or before eight years from
the date of the agreement.  The master license fee consists of a $4.0 million
fee for the right and license granted pursuant to the Master Transaction
Agreement, and a $12.0 million royalty payment.  Such royalty payment is to be
paid at the rate of $3.0 million per system for each of the first four systems
sold by the Company to other licensees.  In addition, M, Ltd., shall receive a
five percent commission on the Company's collections arising in connection with
the sale of licenses and equipment, five percent of the waste disposal fees
("tipping fees") and five percent of the value of all by-products produced from
the operation of each ZEROS System.

       During 1997, the Company entered into five non-exclusive territorial
license agreements providing for license fees of $13.5 million in the
aggregate, including installments of $4.5 million to be paid to the Company in
1998 beginning one year from the effective date of the license agreement.  The
effective dates of such license agreements are as follows:

BUSINESS OF THE ISSUER

       The Company sells non-exclusive territorial licenses to operate the ZEROS
System and the right to sell additional operating licenses for the use of the
ZEROS System.  In addition, the Company sells and leases through related
parties, and arranges for the manufacture and installation of, the equipment
required to operate the ZEROS System.  Under terms of its license agreements
with customers, the Company collects royalties on the waste by-products
generated as a result of the operation of a ZEROS System facility by its
licensees, as well as royalties on the tipping fees collected by its licensees.
In addition, the Company intends to provide additional ongoing services to the
users to permit the equipment to operate more efficiently.

       The Company is in the business of licensing and selling technology and
equipment to customers that recycle energy from a variety of fuels, including
hazardous and non-hazardous, toxic and non-toxic wastes.  The Company sells or
leases through related parties the necessary equipment for the operation of the
ZEROS System, which equipment is manufactured by another entity to the
specifications of the Company and its customers.  The Company itself does not
recycle waste, energy or operate any equipment.

       The standard license agreement entered into by and between the Company
and its licensees permits the licensee to either purchase and operate the ZEROS
System for its own use or act as an authorized representative of the Company in
the sale or lease of the ZEROS System technology and equipment to third
parties.  The license covers a limited geographical area specified in each
license agreement.  Although the license is non-exclusive, the license
agreement provides that the licensee shall have the right to be paid a
commission by the Company for any other operating license sold after the date
of such agreement to another entity within such licensee's geographical area.

       Pursuant to the terms of the Company's typical license agreement, the
licensee agrees to pay the Company a license fee in the amount of $2.7 million,
payable in three annual installments of $900,000 each, beginning one year from
the date of the agreement, and subject to such further terms and conditions
agreed to by the Company and licensee.  In addition, the Company will receive
fifteen percent of the gross income generated by the use of the ZEROS System by
the licensee.  For purposes of the Company's license agreements, "gross income"
is defined as all of the income of the licensee, before deducting operating
expenses and taxes, that is generated from tipping fees and from the sale of
all products produced by each ZEROS System facility operated by licensee.

       The Company may terminate its typical license agreement in the event the
Company has given written notice to the licensee of a breach of such license
agreement, and such breach is not cured by the licensee within thirty days of
receipt of such notice.  In addition, the license agreement terminates
immediately upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the
termination of the licensee's rights to possession of its current offices,
unless such termination is without fault or affirmative action on the part of
the licensee, (ii) the bankruptcy of the licensee, (iii) the making of a
general assignment by the licensee for the benefit of creditors, and (iv) the
appointment of a receiver or similar officer to take charge of the licensee's
business, or any attachment, execution, levy, seizure, or appropriation of the
licensee's interest in the license agreement.





                                       3
<PAGE>   4
       In the event the licensee proposes to sell the business operated
pursuant to the license agreement to any party other than a controlled
corporation, the licensee must first notify the Company of such proposed sale.
The Company shall have the right to purchase the business on the same terms as
stated in such proposed sale.  If the Company does not notify the licensee of
its election to exercise such right within fourteen days, the licensee may sell
the business to the third party, but only upon the same terms and conditions
and only upon the consent of the Company.

ZERO-EMISSION ENERGY RECYCLING OXIDATION SYSTEM

       The ZEROS System is a closed, energy recycling process, operating as a
thermal oxidation process. Unlike incineration, the process does not consume
ambient air and it has no smokestack or other vent to discharge emissions.  The
Company believes that the ZEROS System would be classified as "Air Quality
Exempt" by state environmental agencies, acting in accordance with the
Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") regulations, because the system has
demonstrated a 100% mass balance, thus proving to be emission free.  On April
29, 1997 the Company received a letter from the Texas Natural Resource
Conservation Commission stating that the Commission has determined that the
construction and testing of the ZEROS System will not create a new source of air
contaminants or increased emissions of air contaminants from existing sources
and that, on this basis, no permit will be required from the Office of Air
Quality.  Principal components of the ZEROS System are represented in the
diagram below.




[Inserted below contains a diagram of the Zero-emission Energy Recycling
Oxidation System, showing the primary combustion chamber, secondary combustion
chamber, baghouse, combustion gas manifold, ozone oxidation chamber,
electrostatic precipitator and catalytic reactor, acid scrubber, filtration
system, distillation brine concentration, indirect heat exchanger, refrigerated
heat exchanger and carbon dioxide recovery system.]





                                       4
<PAGE>   5
       The ZEROS System employs a rotary kiln primary combustion chamber
followed by a cyclone separator where entrained particulate matter is removed
from combustion gasses exiting the rotary kiln before their entry into the
secondary combustion chamber.  Combustion gasses are exposed to a high
temperature, high turbulence, oxidative environment for at least two seconds in
the secondary combustion chamber resulting in extremely high process oxidation
efficiency.  Both the primary and secondary combustion chambers are oxygen
fired from an oxidizer source, not with ambient air, eliminating nitrogen
(which comprises approximately 78% of ambient air) and nitrous oxide, a
principal smokestack contaminant, from the system.

       Hot combustion gasses from the secondary combustion chamber
(approximately 2400 degrees Fahrenheit) are circulated through an energy
recovery boiler and a baghouse filter to remove entrained fly ash.  A portion
of the cleaned and cooled combustion gas is returned from the outlet of the
baghouse fabric filter and re-introduced to the primary and the secondary
combustion chambers at a temperature of up to 1200 degrees Fahrenheit together
with the pure oxygen providing for thermal oxidation of fuel and waste.

       The use of recycled combustion gasses and pure oxygen provides a number
of advantages over ambient air as the oxidizer source.  The absence of nitrogen
and other gasses which together comprise approximately 79% of ordinary air
greatly diminish the mass of exhaust gasses which exit the combustion chamber.
The recycled combustion gasses reenter the combustion chambers approximately
1000 degrees Fahrenheit above the ambient temperature, allowing high
temperature operation that promotes complete combustion without the energy cost
that would otherwise be incurred in continuously heating ambient air.  Recycled
combustion gasses have a higher heat transfer capability than air at elevated
temperatures such as those in the operating combustion chambers and in the
energy recovery boiler.  Additionally, at elevated temperatures the recycled
combustion gasses have the benefit of being reactive with carbon and some
hydrocarbons to form a synthetic fuel gas that is reinjected into the
combustion chamber.

       Both combustion chambers are operated at pressures below standard
atmospheric pressure during normal operations.  Special seals are installed on
the rotary kiln to prevent air infiltration.  These same seals additionally
prevent the expulsion of combustion gasses should the rotary kiln primary
combustion chamber become slightly pressurized due to inadvertent over feeding
or the introduction of highly volatile waste stock.  As a backup for fail safe
operation a vacuum tank is provided to automatically scavenge excessive
combustion gas during an inadvertent kiln pressurization.

       Upon exiting the secondary combustion chamber the combustion gasses are
routed into a heat recovery boiler.  The boiler is operated at 250 pounds per
square inch of steam pressure and the combustion gasses exit the boiler at
approximately 450 degrees Fahrenheit.  From the boiler, the combustion gasses
are routed to a baghouse filter where entrained particles are removed.

       Steam produced by the heat recovery boiler has many uses on site.  It
can be used as pure steam energy to drive wood dryers or to generate
electricity by driving a turbine generator.  The Company believes that the
electrical power generated can be used as a portion of the electrical power
required to operate the facility, drive water purification equipment and sold
commercially, thus defraying a considerable portion of the operating expense of
the facility.

       Upon exiting the baghouse fabric filter the cleaned combustion gasses
enter the induced draft fan which provides the motive force keeping the gasses
moving through the process.  At the exit of the induced draft fan the gasses
split into two streams of flow.  A portion of the cleaned and cooled combustion
gas is returned to both combustion chambers where it mixes with the products of
combustion there and is re-heated.  The cooler, recycled combustion gas
moderates the temperatures in the combustion chambers.  Conventional combustion
processes introduce a constant four parts nitrogen with each one part oxygen
delivered for combustion.  To increase temperature these conventional
combustion processes increase fuel and firing rate which results in increasing
production of nitrous oxides.  In the ZEROS System, the operator can simply
reduce the amount of re-circulated combustion gas to increase combustion
chamber temperature without increasing fuel consumption and firing rate.
Temperature and oxidation rate can be readily controlled in the combustion
chambers by regulating the flow of oxygen (increasing oxygen to increase
temperature and oxidation rate) and the cooler recycled combustion gasses
(which moderate temperature and oxidation rate).  This factor provides an extra
measure of control to enhance the safety and quality of operation of the ZEROS
System facility.

       Cleaned and cooled combustion gasses which is not returned to the
combustion chambers are routed into the wet scrubbing system to remove acidic
constituents such as Sulphur Dioxide ("SO(2)") and Hydrochloric acid ("HCl")
before the





                                       5
<PAGE>   6
gas enters the Carbon Dioxide ("CO(2)") recovery plant.  The first component of
the wet scrubbing system is an adiabatic quench and low pressure drop Venturi.
Combustion gas temperature is dropped from approximately 400 degrees Fahrenheit
to roughly 175 to 180 degrees Fahrenheit in the Venturi quench by direct
contact with and evaporation of water.  This direct contact with water spray
also provides for absorption of HCl from the gas into the water.  Approximately
90 percent of the HCl in the combustion gas will be removed by this first
mechanism in the wet scrubbing process.  SO(2) and additional HCl are removed
from the combustion gas by contact with reagents  in the packed bed scrubber
and in additional scrubbing columns added to insure optimum scrubbing
efficiency before the gas enters the CO(2) recovery system.  There is also an
activated carbon packed bed absorber immediately before the inlet of the CO(2)
recovery system to remove trace levels of residual organic compounds and metal
fume such as mercury which might find its way into the process with certain
waste streams.

       The wet scrubbing process requires that a liquid brine be produced and
discharged from the scrubber.  The amount of brine discharge depends on the
level of chlorine and sulfur present in the waste being processed.  This brine
is mixed with the ash product and cement described below to form cinder blocks.
In the event that waste with very high chlorine and/or sulfur content is
processed and more liquid brine discharge is produced than can be mixed with
ash and cement, the excess will be filtered and steam from the boiler will be
utilized to evaporate water from this filtered brine to produce a marketable
fracturing agent (frac) for the oil industry.  If required a solid salt cake
can be produced from this brine.

       After treatment in the wet scrubbing system, the remaining combustion
gas, a mixture of water vapor, CO(2), excess oxygen and nitrogen (from the
combustion of natural gas, fuel oil, and certain waste streams), enters  the
CO(2) recovery unit.  The CO(2) recovery unit condenses and discharges the
moisture as a liquid.  This water is then used as make-up to the wet scrubber
system to replace the water that is discharged there as a brine.  The amount of
water recovered from the combustion gas will vary, but the Company anticipates
a typical collection rate of 10 gallons per minute.  In the event that the
scrubber does not require this amount of water due to a very low chlorine and
sulfur content in the waste, the excess water will be contained, filtered,
treated, sampled and analyzed as required to allow for its discharge into the
waste heat boiler.

       The gaseous combination of roughly four parts oxygen and one part
nitrogen that is discharged from the CO(2) recovery unit cannot be reintroduced
into the ZEROS System process because the nitrogen would accumulate and grow in
proportion to the other gasses until the process was overwhelmed.  The gaseous
mixture is recovered as a separate product from the CO(2) and sold for oxygen
enrichment to metal smelters or used on site to fire a small clean fuel burner
for a recycling process for scrap metal or glass, or the mixture can be
processed further to yield pure oxygen.

       Upon exiting the boiler the combustion gasses are routed into the
baghouse fabric filter where particulate matter entrained in the gas flow is
removed.  This particulate matter is commonly referred to as fly ash because it
so readily takes flight with a moving gas.  Fly ash is readily ingested by
breathing and typically contains trace levels of metals which are harmful to
human health and the environment.  To prevent accidental discharge and the
consequential dispersion of fly ash into the air the system is operated below
atmospheric pressure and a wetting process is used to convert the fine dry
powder into a paste.

       Ash is also discharged from the exit of the rotary kiln primary chamber,
the cyclone separator, and from the bottom of the secondary combustion chamber.
Air seals are provided at each of these discharge points to prevent air
infiltration, including rotary seals submerged in water for cooling, dust
suppression, and additional blockage of air.  Ash discharged from this process
is hot (212 degrees Fahrenheit) and requires cautious handling.  Cement can be
added during this period if required as a measure to bind leachable metals or
other hazardous inorganic or residual trace organic constituents.

       Cement is mixed with the paste formed by mixing water with the baghouse
fly ash.  The cement and fly ash is then mixed with the bottom ash from the
kiln and cyclone separator.  This mixture is formed into cinder blocks for
storage on site.  Walkways, barricades, fences, small storage buildings, and
fire walls separating waste storage areas can all be constructed from the
cinder blocks produced over time from the ash discharged from the facility.

       The Company believes that some of the advantages of the ZEROS System
over conventional destructive waste disposal systems include:

              (i)    The ZEROS System produces no "emissions" (as defined by
                     the EPA)
              (ii)   No "Emergency Stack Opening" is required





                                       6
<PAGE>   7
              (iii)  Gas velocities are not a factor in operation of the ZEROS
                     System
              (iv)   The ZEROS System provides increased system control
              (v)    Co-generation of electrical energy for sale and for water
                     purification
              (vi)   Production of marketable products, including dry ice,
                     liquid carbonics, carbon dioxide gas and brine.

       The ZEROS System equipment can be manufactured in the following general
formats:

              Industrial Units which are generally installed on fixed
       industrial sites.  These units range in the 100 to 200 ton per day
       processing capacity and will handle integrated waste streams.

              Mobile Processing Units are mounted on tractor trailers with
       wheels and designed according to the licensee's project and required
       capacity.  These units will generally handle between 50 and 75 tons per
       day and will be moved from site to site.

              Biomedical Facilities are smaller units designed for installation
       in an enclosed structure which can be placed on a hospital's premises.
       The Company estimates that the processing capacity for such unit will be
       between  25 to 50 tons per day.  The EPA has mandated that hospitals
       with in-house waste incinerators shut down their incinerators by the
       year 2000.  The biomedical units provide hospitals an alternative waste
       disposal process without emissions.

       The ZEROS System technology can also be manufactured as a Special Use
System which can process waste streams which are radioactive and contaminated
with low level nuclear material.  Since no systems of this type have been
proposed, the design and engineering of such unit has not progressed to a
presentation stage.

MANUFACTURE OF THE ZEROS SYSTEM EQUIPMENT

       The Company has entered into an agreement with OCS, Inc., a Texas
corporation ("OCS"), to authorize OCS to manufacture the ZEROS System
equipment.  Pursuant to such agreement, OCS would manufacture, install, test,
and maintain the ZEROS System equipment as well as provide each licensee with a
product warranty, training, inspections, and technical support.  The Company
will receive a 10% interest in the revenues resulting from the design,
manufacture, assembly and installation of equipment in connection with the
ZEROS System equipment manufactured by OCS.

       In order to manufacture the ZEROS System equipment, OCS will use its
100,000 square foot facility with storage, welding and machine works equipment
as well as an industrial laboratory for testing, inspecting and qualifying the
ZEROS System equipment.  The Company believes that this facility is capable of
producing equipment for four ZEROS System facilities simultaneously during a
150 day period and a total of eight facilities per year.

       The construction of the ZEROS System equipment involves conventional
petroleum refinery equipment and conventional construction techniques.  The
components for the ZEROS System will be constructed and tested at the OCS
facility and transported to the site determined by the licensee for
installation.

       OCS is an oilwell control services company, engaged in oilwell blowout,
fire, failure and quality assurance management services and construction and
has been in business for more than 23 years.  It has serviced more than 1,950
oilwell blowouts, failures and fires during the time it has been in business.
The Company believes that OCS has the requisite expertise to manufacture the
ZEROS System equipment.  OCS was organized by Mr. Clark in January, 1975, in
order to manage his business activities in oil well blowout and failure
analysis and control.  Mr. Clark is the sole shareholder of OCS.

DEPENDENCE ON CERTAIN MAJOR CUSTOMERS

       Currently, the Company has only five licensees.  Since a significant
portion of the Company's revenues will be derived from the royalty payments to
be paid by each licensee pursuant to the license agreement, the failure of any
licensee to pay its deferred license fees or to succeed in the construction and
operation of its ZEROS System will have a substantial impact on the revenues of
the Company.  However, the Company is vigorously marketing the ZEROS System to
prospective licensees.  As the number of licensees grows, the effect on the
Company of the failure of a licensee will not be as significant.

COMPETITION

       Although the Company does not process waste, it sells ZEROS System
operating licenses and equipment to licensees that have a need to process
waste.  Consequently, the Company competes with both national and local waste
management businesses that provide alternative waste disposal options to
prospective licensees.  These businesses primarily store or bury waste in
landfills, incinerate it, or treat the waste with chemicals.  The Company
believes that the ZEROS System will be able to compete effectively because of
its ability to (i) process waste with 100% mass balance zero emissions and (ii)
convert the waste into marketable energy, and (iii) produce carbon dioxide,
brine and certain other products.  Some of the Company's competitors, however,
are larger and have greater financial and other resources than the Company. 

MARKETING AND NEW BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

       The Company plans to establish marketing and business development
offices in key areas of the United States and in certain international
locations.  The Company anticipates that the average annual cost of its
business centers will be $100,000 which will include payment of basic overhead
expenses with base salaries for an average of two commissioned marketing
representatives per office.  Other forms of compensation are performance-based
commissions for the sale of licenses and equipment to the licensee.  The
Company's business development offices presently in organization include the
following:

       1.     Houston ZEROS Business Center (Houston, Texas)
       2.     Oakland-Alameda ZEROS Business Center (Bay Area, California)
       3.     Banning ZEROS Business Center (Palm Springs, California Area)
       4.     Syracuse ZEROS Business Center (Syracuse, New York)
       5.     Seattle ZEROS Business Center (Seattle, Washington)
       6.     BAF de Mexico ZEROS International Center (Mexico D.F., Mexico)

It is the Company's goal for each of the ZEROS business development offices to
originate and place two new licenses per year for which the Company will pay a
commission.  The Company intends to market aggressively the ZEROS System
technology and equipment, utilizing its business relationship with Capital to
assist the prospective licensees and buyers in arranging financing for the
purchase of ZEROS System equipment.  The Company will pursue leads from users,
staff personnel, trade shows and conferences as well as hire a professional
marketing staff.  The Company has developed and currently has a "web site" on
the internet, located at www.zerosusa.com and has participated in trade shows.
The Company also distributes pamphlets, brochures and promotional packets to
prospective investors, licensees and end-users.  Other new business sources
include business referrals, announcements of contractors, advertisement for
bids and requests for proposals which the licensees originate for the
development of sales opportunities.  The Company will coordinate and assist the
ZEROS System licensees with plans and programs to respond to various commercial
and governmental requests for bid proposals as well as respond to
advertisements made by prospective customers in situations where the ZEROS
System process is suitable.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

       The Company's business depends on the continuation of the Master License
Agreement with M, Ltd., through which the Company obtains all rights to the
technology that it markets and licenses.  The Master License Agreement provides
the Company with the exclusive right to develop business opportunities  related
to the ZEROS System technology, and to sell, lease, license, market and use,
under terms and conditions approved by M, Ltd., the ZEROS System technology and
all improvements thereof.  The rights granted under the Master License
Agreement  cover an unlimited geographical area and continue perpetually unless
terminated as a result of  (i) the termination of the Company's rights to
possession of its current offices, unless such termination is without fault or
affirmative action on the part of the Company, (ii) the bankruptcy of the
Company, (iii) the making of a general assignment by the Company for the
benefit of creditors, and (iv) the appointment of a receiver or similar officer
to take charge of the Company's business, or any attachment, execution, levy,
seizure, or appropriation of the Company's interest in the Master License
Agreement.

       The technology comprising the ZEROS System is protected by one United
States patent and three United States patent applications pending which
primarily relate to reduced emission combustion process with resource
conservation and recovery options, and non-thermal process for cleaning
hydrocarbon from soils.  The patents grant M, Ltd., the right to exclude others
from making, using, offering for sale and selling the inventions in the United
States.  The process of seeking patent protection can be long and expensive,
and no assurance can be given that a patent will issue from the currently





                                       8
<PAGE>   9
pending applications of M, Ltd., or its future applications or that, if patents
are issued, that they will be of sufficient scope or strength to provide a
meaningful protection or any commercial advantage to M, Ltd., or the Company.
Litigation, which could demand significant financial and management resources,
may be necessary to enforce patents or other intellectual property rights of M,
Ltd., and the Company.

       A significant portion of the ZEROS System comprises innovations based on
mature technology and is protected by M, Ltd., and the Company as confidential
proprietary information or trade secrets.  Although the Company and M, Ltd.,
have taken steps to maintain the confidentiality of such information, there can
be no assurance that such confidentiality can be maintained or that competitors
cannot reverse engineer key elements of the ZEROS System without access to
confidential information.  Although such patents and proprietary information
are material to the operations of the Company, the Company believes that its
future success will depend more on its technological, marketing and general
business skills than on exclusive rights to its proprietary technology.

       Mr. Clark initially filed a patent  application for the ZEROS System. He
then transferred the rights to M, Ltd., in 1993.  On November 15, 1996,
pursuant to a Master License Agreement, M, Ltd., granted the Company an
exclusive license to sell licenses and equipment in connection with the ZEROS
System.  In accordance with the Master License Agreement, M, Ltd., retained all
rights to any improvements and related technologies, whether patented or not,
discovered or invented by the Company.  The agreement further provides that all
costs incurred in the development and filing of the patent applications are to
be paid by the Company.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

       The Company conducts research and development to improve the quality and
efficiency of  the ZEROS System and to develop specific applications of the
system according to the needs of its customers.  Research and development
activities include in-house development, extensive field testing, and
development with its affiliates, OCS and M, Ltd.

       Through its research and development efforts, the Company has developed
additional technologies for soil and water remediation which the Company calls
Biodynamics and Aquadynamics, respectively.

       Pursuant to the Master License Agreement, M, Ltd., is entitled to
royalties on advances and innovations developed by the Company arising out of
the technology comprising the ZEROS System.

GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS AND POTENTIAL FUTURE REGULATIONS

       The waste management industry is a highly regulated industry by both
federal and state law.  Since the Company does not operate a ZEROS System,
however, but instead sells rights to technology to its licensees who in turn
operate the systems, the Company believes there are no environmental laws that
are applicable to the Company.  In addition, the Company does not intend to
manufacture the ZEROS Systems.  Rather, the Company will contract with OCS and
other qualified contractors to manufacture the ZEROS System equipment for sale
to its licensees.  Consequently, the Company believes there are no regulations
of a manufacturing or operational nature that are applicable to the Company.

       The Company believes that the ZEROS process is currently exempt from EPA
and the Department of Environmental Quality regulation because there is no
smokestack or emissions to regulate or measure as described by Title 40 and the
Environmental Impact Statements required.  The Company received a letter from
the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission dated April 29, 1997 stating
that the Commission has determined that the construction and testing of the
ZEROS System will not create a new source of air contaminants or increased
emissions of air contaminants from existing sources and that, on this basis, no
permit will be required from the Commission's Office of Air Quality.

       Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976.  In 1976, Congress
passed the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 ("RCRA")  as a
response to growing public concern about problems associated with the handling
and disposal of solid and hazardous waste.  RCRA required the EPA to promulgate
regulations identifying hazardous wastes.  RCRA also created standards for the
generation, transportation, treatment, storage and disposal of solid and
hazardous wastes, including a manifest program for the transportation of
hazardous wastes and a permit system for solid and hazardous waste disposal
facilities.  The Company believes that its existing licensees will not be
subject to RCRA because the





                                       9
<PAGE>   10
hazardous waste to be treated originated on the site where the ZEROS System is
to be located and such licensees currently have no plans to transport, transfer
or receive hazardous materials.

       Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of
1980.  The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
of 1980, as amended ("CERCLA"), established a regulatory and remedial program to
provide for the investigation and clean-up facilities from which there has been
an actual or threatened release of hazardous substances into the environment,
including the designation of "Superfund" sites. CERCLA and similar state laws
impose strict joint and several liability on the current and former owners and
operators of facilities from which releases of hazardous substances have
occurred and on the generators and transporters of the hazardous substances that
come to be located at such facilities.  Responsible parties may be liable for
substantial waste site investigation and clean-up costs and natural resource
damages, regardless of whether they exercised due care and complied with
applicable laws and regulations.  If a ZEROS System licensee were found to be a
responsible party for a particular site, it could be required to pay the entire
cost of waste site investigation and clean-up, even though other parties may
also be liable. The Company believes that its existing licensees will not be
subject to CERCLA as a result of their use of the ZEROS System, however, because
the ZEROS System will be used to treat waste generated at the site and, as such,
the ZEROS System will not be the cause or a contributor to the release of
hazardous waste under CERCLA.

       State and Local Regulation.  The Company has licensed ZEROS Systems in
four states and is marketing throughout the United States.  Each state has its
own regulations related to the handling, treatment, processing, transferring,
recycling and storage of hazardous waste subject to the priority of federal
laws and regulations.  In each of the states where a licensee of the Company
currently intends to operate a ZEROS System, the licensee is required to comply
with numerous state and local laws and regulations as well as its site-specific
operating plan.  Agencies writing regulations at the state level typically
include departments of health and state environmental protection agencies.  In
addition, many municipalities have ordinances, local laws and regulations
affect the operations of the Company's licensee, including but not limited to
zoning and health measures.

       The Company believes increased government regulation regarding
landfills, incinerators and other waste processing systems could substantially
benefit the Company.  However, the demand for the ZEROS System may be adversely
affected by the amendment or repeal, or reduction in enforcement of federal,
state and local laws and regulations.  The Company cannot predict the extent to
which any legislation or regulation that may be enacted, amended, repealed or
enforced, or any failure or delay in enactment of legislation or regulations in
the future may affect the Company's operations.

EMPLOYEES

       As of October 1, 1997, the Company had approximately nine full-time
employees.  The Company's employees are not subject to any collective
bargaining agreements and management regards its relations with employees to be
good.

LOCATION

       The Company maintains offices at 507 North Belt East, Suites 155 and
550, Houston, Texas 77060, (281) 448-6070.  This space is leased from Capital
American Associates, Inc. ("Capital").

RISK FACTORS

       In addition to the other information contained herein, the following
risk factors should be considered carefully by any interested party before
investing in the Company.

No Operating History

       As an emerging company, the Company has had a limited operating history.
Thus far, the management has devoted significant efforts to raising capital and
identifying appropriate candidates with which to enter into license agreements.
The success of the Company will depend, in part, upon its ability to identify
and close license agreements with qualified licensees who can operate the ZEROS
System successfully and provide an income stream to the Company.





                                       10
<PAGE>   11
Liquidity Risk

       The Company's revenues are derived from the sale of licenses and
equipment ordinarily upon deferred payment terms.  As a result, although the
Company may record substantial revenues, it may not have sufficient cash flows
to finance its current operations.  As a result of the Company's financing
activities, it believes that it has sufficient funds to conduct its planned
operations for the subsequent twelve months.  Ultimately, the Company is
dependent upon the ability of its licensees to finance deferred licensee fee
payments and the cost of constructing, equipping and operating the ZEROS
System.  There can be no assurance that sufficient cash will be available as
needed to fully execute the Company's business plans.

Financing for Licensee

       Although each of the current licensees have entered into an agreement
with Capital to arrange construction and permanent financing in order to build
a ZEROS System facility, currently no licensee has obtained financing or a
commitment for financing from any lender.  There can be no assurance that each
of the licensees will be able to obtain financing sufficient to build and equip
a ZEROS System or to satisfy its obligations pursuant to the license agreement.

Risk That System Does Not Work

       The ZEROS System does not have a history of commercial operation by
licensees.  However, a prototype has been built, tested and operated.  The
ZEROS System is not based on new technology, but rather is primarily an
application of well-established technology.  The ZEROS System relies on a
series of devices, equipment and apparatus substantially all of which must
function as designed for the licensee to conduct commercial operations.
Because no assurances can be given that every piece of equipment will be fully
operational at all times, Investors should be aware that any loss of business
to any licensee because of equipment failure will affect the revenue stream to
the Company.

Dependence on Success of Licensee

       Although the Company will earn a one time license fee each time it sells
a new license, a significant portion of the Company's revenues will be derived
from the royalty payments to be paid by each licensee pursuant to the license
agreement.  Such royalty payment is equal to fifteen percent of the gross
income (defined as income before deducting operating expenses and taxes)
generated from tipping fees and the sale of all products produced by each ZEROS
System facility operated by a licensee.  Consequently, the success of the
Company, in part, will depend upon the operations and success of its licensees.

Dependence on Steve Clark

       As the designer of the ZEROS System, the success of the Company will
depend on the continuing efforts of Steve Clark with whom the Company has
entered into a three-year employment agreement.

Dependence on Key Management Personnel

       The success of the Company's operations will depend on the continuing
efforts of its executive officers.  The business of the Company could be
affected adversely if any of the executive officers does not continue in his or
her management role and the Company is unable to attract and retain a qualified
replacement.

Limited Experience of Management

       Other than Steve Clark's previous experience with OCS, none of the
officers or directors have had prior experience in the field of recycling
waste.  The Company believes, however, that the absence of such experience will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company since the Company is not in
the waste recycling business, but rather sells licenses to the ZEROS System
technology.





                                       11
<PAGE>   12
Need for Substantial Additional Capital

       As an emerging company and in order to develop its business plan, the
Company will require substantial capital for administration, operations,
marketing, legal and accounting fees and other similar expenses.  There can be
no assurance that additional financing will be available on a timely basis, if
at all, or that it will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.  In
the event that adequate financing is not available or is not available in the
amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company, the business plan and strategy
could be severely impeded and the Company's ability to react to the demands of
the industry in which it plans to do business could be limited, which could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition
and future prospects.

Environmental Regulation

       The waste management industry is a highly regulated industry by both
federal and state law.  Because the Company does not own or operate any ZEROS
System, but, rather, sells rights to ZEROS System technology to licensees who
operate the systems, the Company believes there are no environmental laws that
are applicable to the Company.  In addition, the Company does not intend to
manufacture the ZEROS Systems.  Rather, the Company will contract with OCS, and
other approved contractors to manufacture the ZEROS System equipment for sale
to the Company's licensees.  Consequently, the Company believes there are no
regulations of a manufacturing or operational nature that are applicable to the
Company.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company has obtained from the
Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission a letter concluding that since
the equipment as designed produces no emissions and does not contaminate the
air, no permits or exemptions are required for the operation of a ZEROS System.

Reliance on Patents and Proprietary Technologies

       The Company's success depends in part on its ability to obtain patents
and other intellectual property rights covering its technology.  The Company
has obtained certain patents and intends to continue to seek patents on its
technology.  The process of seeking patent protection can be long and
expensive, and there can be no assurance that patents will issue from currently
pending or future applications or that, if patents are issued, they will be of
sufficient scope or strength to provide meaningful protection or any commercial
advantage to the Company.  In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries
may not protect the Company's intellectual property rights to the same extent
as the laws of the United States.  Litigation, which could demand financial and
management resources, may be necessary to enforce patents or other intellectual
property rights of the Company.  In addition, there can be no assurance others
will not independently develop substantially equivalent or better technology
that would be free of the Company's patents and other intellectual property
rights.

Risks of Future Legal Proceedings

       The Company is not currently involved in any litigation or legal
proceedings with any person and the Company is not aware of any threatened
legal proceedings or any disputed claims which it believes will lead to any
legal proceedings.  The Company anticipates that it may, from time to time, be
involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business.  Although no
assurance can be given regarding the outcome of any legal proceeding, the
Company believes that because it does not own, operate or manufacture any
equipment comprising the ZEROS System that the Company expects to successfully
defend suits based on allegations of environmental laws.  Nevertheless, the
Company promotes and sells licenses for the ZEROS System and provides custom
design services intended to accommodate the particular needs of such licensees.
There can be no assurance that legal proceedings will not arise as a result of
disputes relating to allegations involving environmental laws.

The Emergence of New Technology

       The Company has no control over the emergence of new technology other
that its own.  The Company's technology can be surpassed by the introduction of
other technology.  The Company continues to improve and enhance its ZEROS
System design, however, so that it can remain state of the art.

       Although the Company does not believe that it would suffer a direct loss
from an equipment failure or industrial accident because the Company does not
own, operate or manufacture the ZEROS System, any loss of business to any
licensee because of equipment failure will ultimately affect the revenue stream
to the Company, and if a record of industrial accidents





                                       12
<PAGE>   13
were to develop with respect to the ZEROS System, the ensuing damage to the
reputation of the system could have adverse effect on the Company's license
sales and revenue stream.

ITEM 2 .  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF PLAN OF OPERATION

       The Company was organized November 12, 1996 and operates on a fiscal
year ending March 31.  The Company's revenues are derived from the sale of
licenses and equipment ordinarily upon deferred payment terms.  As a result,
although the Company may record substantial revenues, it may not have
sufficient cash flows to finance its current operations.  As a result of its
financing activities, the Company believes that it has sufficient funds to
conduct its planned operations for at least the next twelve months.  There can
be no assurance, however, that sufficient cash will be available as needed to
fully execute the Company's business plan.

       Although the Company reported revenues of $3,383,845 during its fiscal
year ended March 31, 1997, the only cash generated during the period came from
the private placement of $885,000 debentures.  Negotiations are in varying
stages with regard to the sale or lease of ZEROS System equipment to existing
licensees.  Although the total estimated cost of these plants has been
defined, the financing necessary to commence construction has not been
finalized.  Therefore, until the buyer of the ZEROS System equipment has
delivered the required payment, the Company cannot be assured of the sale of the
equipment.

       The Company has entered into a Master License Agreement with M, Ltd.,
which requires the payment of $4.0 million no later than eight years after the
effective date of the agreement and an additional $3.0 million to be paid for
each of the first four plants sold by the Company to other Licensees. The
payment of $12.0 million to be made in connection with the first four plants is
not required until the Company has received payments from the licensees.

  

       Each licensee must obtain its own financing to pay its license fees to
ZEROS and to pay a manufacturer to construct and equip its ZEROS System to the
licensee's specifications.  Although the Company believes that several of its
licensees have sufficient capital to pay such fees and construction costs
without third party financing, each of the licensees has engaged Capital
American Associates, Inc. ("Capital") to arrange financing for it.  As of the
date hereof, no commitment for construction or permanent financing has been
obtained by any of the licensees.  The Company and Capital believe that such
financing can be obtained on terms and conditions adequate to meet the
licensees' needs.  Of course, there can be no assurance that such financing can
be obtained, or if obtained, that the terms will be favorable enough to produce
a profit for the licensees.

       During the first two quarters of the Company's 1998 fiscal year, the
six-month period from September 30, 1997, the Company continued its efforts to
sell non-exclusive territorial licenses for the ZEROS System technology as well
as continuing its improvements of the ZEROS System technology.  During the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1997, the Company raised $855,000 by the sale of
its One Year 10% Secured Debentures (the "Debentures").  As of September 30,
1997, the total debentures sold were $1,928,084 and $135,000 of Series A Five-
Year 12% Percent Convertible Bonds.

       The debentures have various maturing dates starting January 1998 with a
monthly total of $200,000 and averaging $227,664 per month in the first quarter
of 1998 and $292,367 per month in the second quarter of 1998.  The Company
expects a very strong exchange of the debentures, pursuant to their terms, into
common stock versus monetary redemption at maturity.  Over the succeeding twelve
months, maturity on the Company's outstanding indebtedness is $1,928,084 on the
debentures and $415,000 on secured commercial debt (See Footnote 5 to the
Financial Statements for September 30, 1997.)

       The Company had an aggregate of $415,000 of commercial bank debt
outstanding as of December 31, 1997 pursuant to a series of one-year term loans
maturing at various dates from March 18, 1998 to August 12, 1998, made by
Citizens Bank & Trust of Baytown, Texas.  The loans are for one year on a fully
secured basis, with interest paid quarterly at 7.00-7.35% per annum.  The
Company borrowed such funds for working capital and to fund the acquisition of
certain assets from OCS.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

       In November 1997, the Company entered into an asset sales agreement with
OCS under which the Company acquired the accounts receivable, certain contracts
and certain equipment, including equipment used for testing ZEROS Systems, in
consideration of $100,000 in cash and 3.0 million shares of Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock.  Other than such equipment, the Company does not
anticipate the need for significant fixed assets.  The Company's capital
expenditures during fiscal 1997 were $16,292, not including obligations under
the Master License Agreement, and $19,644 for the six month period ended June
30, 1997 (excluding the equipment acquired from OCS), primarily for furniture,
fixtures and equipment, including computers, used by the Company's
professionals and staff.  The Company currently has no plans for





                                       13
<PAGE>   14
capital expenditures except for additional expenditures for furniture, fixtures
and equipment at levels comparable to prior periods.

REVENUE SOURCES.

       The Company anticipates that it will continue to obtain revenues from
the sale of licenses to independent third parties to use the ZEROS System
technology.  These licenses are currently priced at $2.7 million per license
payable in annual installments of $900,000 each over a three year period
beginning one year from the effective date.  The agreements with the Licensees
provide that they pay a 15% royalty on the tipping fees and on the sale of
by-products from operation of the ZEROS System equipment of which 5%, or one
third, is remitted to M.,Ltd., within thirty days of receipt.  Under terms of
ZEROS' agreement with OCS authorizing OCS to manufacture ZEROS System equipment,
the Company anticipates that it will earn 10% of the sales price of ZEROS System
equipment manufactured by OCS.  In consideration for certain covenants
restricting Mr. Clark from certain hazardous business activities, the Company
has issued 1.0 million shares of common stock to OCS.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

       During the company's fiscal year ended March 31, 1997, the Company had
no material research and development expenditures.


ITEM 3.       DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

       The Company currently subleases 4,112 square feet of administrative
offices adequately furnished with furniture, computers, telephones and
facsimile equipment at 507 North Belt East, Suites 155 and 550, Houston, Texas
77060.  These offices serve as both the Company's headquarters and as one of
its regional business development offices.  The lease term is two years and
expires on December 31, 1998.  The Company believes that the current facilities
are adequate but that it will require additional space in January 1999 to
accommodate planned growth.  The Company anticipates that additional space will
be available on reasonable terms if needed.

       The Company leases the entire first floor of an office building located
on 504 Old Liverpool Road, Liverpool, New York 13088.  The lease term is three
years, commencing on October 15, 1997 and expiring on October 15, 2000.

       The Company subleases two regional offices in California located at 245
North Murray Street, Banning, CA 92220 and 1000 Atlantic Avenue, Suite 106,
Alameda, CA 94501, respectively.  These subleases are month-to-month from
related parties.

       Other than Steve Clark's experience in connection with OCS, none of the
officers or directors have had prior experience in the field of recycling
waste.  The Company believes, however, that the absence of such experience will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company since the Company is not in
the waste recycling business, but rather sells licenses to the ZEROS System
technology.  See "Risk Factors."

based upon fair market value of services performed.

ITEM 8.       LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

       To the knowledge of management, there is no material litigation pending
or threatened against the Company.

ITEM 9.       MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS

       To date there has been no public market for the common shares of the
Company. To the knowledge of the Company, there are no plans, proposals,
arrangements or understandings of any person with regard to the development of a
trading market in any of the Company's securities.  As of January 20, 1998,
approximately 17,421,682 shares of Common Stock are subject to outstanding
warrants, debentures and preferred stock issued by the Company, and the Company
had 172 holders of record of the Common Stock.

      As of today,  the Company has not declared any cash dividends on its
Common Stock. The Company currently intends to retain its earnings, if any, to
finance the expansion of its business and for general corporate purposes and
does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its Common Stock for the
foreseeable future. Any future dividends will be at the discretion of the Board
of Directors, after taking into account various factors, including among others,
the Company's financial condition, results of operations, cash flows from
operations, current and anticipated cash needs and expansion plans, the income
tax laws then in effect, the requirements of Texas law, and any restrictions 
that may be imposed by the Company's future credit arrangements.

       In general, under Rule 144, if a minimum of one year has elapsed since
the later of the date of acquisition of the restricted securities from the
Company or an affiliate of the Company, the holder (or holders whose shares of
Common Stock are aggregated) of such restricted securities, including holders
who may be deemed "affiliates of the Company," is entitled to sell within any
three-month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of (i)
one percent of the then outstanding shares of the Common Stock or (ii) the
average weekly reported volume of trading of the Common Stock during the four
calendar weeks preceding such sale. Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to
certain provisions regarding the manner of sale, notice requirements and the
availability of current public information about the Company. Affiliates may
sell shares not constituting restricted securities in accordance with the
foregoing volume limitations and other requirements but without regard to the
one year holding period. Under Rule 144(k), if a period of at least two years
has elapsed since the later of the date on which restricted securities were
acquired from the Company or the date they were acquired from an affiliate of
the Company, a holder of such restricted securities who is not an affiliate of
the Company at the time of the sale and has not been such an affiliate for at
least three months prior to the sale is entitled to sell the shares immediately
without regard to the volume limitations and other conditions of Rule 144
described above. The foregoing summary of Rule 144 is not intended to be a
complete description thereof and is qualified in its entirety by reference
thereto. The Commission has proposed certain amendments to Rule 144 that would,
among other things, eliminate the manner of sale requirements and revise the
notice provisions of that rule. The Commission has also solicited comments on
other possible changes to Rule 144, including possible revisions to the one-
and two-year holding periods and volume limitations described above. Following
the satisfaction of the current public information standard of Rule 144, which
the Company anticipates will occur within ninety days of the effective date of
this Form 10-SB, 900,000 shares of Common Stock will be eligible for sale under
Rule 144.

       The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 (the
"Penny Stock Act"), and the rules promulgated thereunder, are part of a
comprehensive effort by Congress and the Securities and Exchange Commission





                                       21
<PAGE>   22
("SEC") to reduce fraud and manipulation in the penny stock market and to
provide investors with important information concerning that market.  The Penny
Stock Act requires a broker-dealer recommending penny stocks to document the
suitability of the investment for the specific customer and to obtain the
written agreement of the customer to purchase the penny stock.  In addition,
the broker-dealers must provide the customers with a Standardized Risk
Disclosure Document, disclosure of market quotations, if any, disclosure of the
compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and
monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in
the customer's account.

       Generally, a penny stock is an equity security of a company that (i) is
priced less than $5.00 (ii) is not approved for quotation on the National
Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (NASDAQ) or
registered, or approved for registration upon notice of issuance, on a national
securities exchange which makes transaction reports available or (iii) has net
tangible assets in excess of $2.0 million ($5.0 million if the issuer has been
in continuous operation for less than three years) or average revenue of at
least $6.0 million for the last three years.

       In the event the Common Stock of the Company is deemed to be penny
stock, such classification may significantly limit the ability of the Company
to raise capital in the securities market due to the compliance burdens caused
by the rules, the unwillingness of broker-dealer firms to effect transactions
in these securities, or the negative connotation of being classified as a penny
stock.

holder of any shares of Common Stock has a pre-emptive right to subscribe for
any securities of the Company nor are any common shares subject to redemption
or convertible into other securities of the Company.  Each share of Common
Stock is entitled to one vote for each share held.  Holders of the Common Stock
do not have cumulative voting rights.

PREFERRED STOCK

       The Company's Amended Articles authorize 75.0 million shares of $.001
par value preferred stock.  The Company's board of directors shall have the
power, without further action by the holders of Common Stock, to designate the
relative rights and preferences of the preferred stock, and to issue the
preferred stock in such one or more series as designated by the board of
directors. The designations of rights and preferences could include preferences
as to liquidation, redemption and conversion rights, voting rights, dividends
or other preferences, any of which may be dilutive of the interest of the
holders of the Common Stock or the preferred stock of any other series.  The
issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a
change in control of the Company without further shareholder action and may
adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders
of Common Stock.  In certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock
could depress the market price of the Common Stock.  The board of directors
effects an establishment of series  designation of each series of preferred
stock by filing with the Secretary of State of Texas an establishment of series
of designation defining the rights and preferences of each such series.

              Preferred carries a dividend of $0.30 per share, payable
              annually, provided that if the price of the Series A Convertible
              Preferred Stock is $5 per share or more, the Company has the
              option to pay such dividend in Common Stock.  If the Company
              elects to pay the dividend in Common Stock, the Company will
              round up to the next whole number any fractional shares payable
              in the total annual dividend to each shareholder. The holder of
              the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, may at any time,

                          Independent Auditor's Report

                                                             July 3, 1997

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
ZEROS USA, Inc.
Houston, Texas

         We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of ZEROS
USA, Inc. and Subsidiary as of March 31, 1997, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the period
from inception (November 12, 1996) to March 31, 1997. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.

         We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

         In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ZEROS USA, Inc. and
Subsidiary as of March 31, 1997, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the initial period then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

                    ZEROS USA, Inc. and Subsidiary Notes to
                       Consolidated Financial Statements
              From Inception (November 12, 1996) to March 31, 1997

Note 1 - Significant accounting policies

Organization

         ZEROS USA, Inc. (the "Company") formerly "ZEROS," Inc. (Note 12) was
incorporated in the state of Texas on November 12, 1996. The Company develops
and sells technology for industrial waste systems. The Company has a master
license on the system (the "System") called "Zero Emission Energy Recycling
Oxidation System" or "ZEROS" - an energy recycling oxidation system. The
Company sells licenses for the System to sub-licensees both nationally and
internationally. The books and records of the Company are prepared on the
accrual basis for financial reporting purposes and the cash basis for federal
income tax purposes. The Company has elected a March 31 fiscal year end for
both financial and tax reporting purposes. The financial statements include the
records of the majority (91%) owned subsidiary, ZEROS USA, Inc. - Utah, a Utah
corporation. The subsidiary had no active operations from inception to March
31, 1997. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

Revenue recognition

         The Company sells sub-licenses to the System and recognizes revenue on
licenses based upon milestones in the contract process. The milestones include
contract signing and delivery of the technology (75%), training on the
technology (15%) and testing of the system equipment (10%).

Organization costs

         Organization costs, primarily legal costs, are being amortized over a
sixty month (60) period.

Investment

         Investments are recorded at an estimated fair market value based upon
the investment held available for sale criteria in accordance with FASB #115 -
Accounting for Certain Debt and Equity Securities.

Property and equipment

         Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided
on an accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as
follows:

                 Office equipment                   5 year





                                      -8-
<PAGE>   40
Property and equipment (continued)

         All expenditures for major renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
When property and equipment are retired or disposed of the related costs and
accumulated depreciation are removed from the applicable accounts and any gain
or loss is reflected in income.  Depreciation expense from inception to March
31, 1997 was $815.

Acquisition

         In February 1997 the Company acquired the majority stock (91%) of
Gunner Holdings, Inc. - a Utah corporation and changed its name to ZEROS USA,
Inc. - Utah. The acquisition was accounted for by using the purchase method for
business combinations. Under the purchase method the purchase price of $90,000
was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Income taxes

         The Company accounts for its income taxes using the Financial
Accounting Standards Board Statement No.109, "Accounting for Income Taxes"
(SFAS No. 109) which requires the establishment of a deferred tax asset or
liability for taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and
deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.
Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by
a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely
than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of
changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Cash and cash equivalents

         The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of
three months or less, when purchased, to be "cash equivalents" for purposes of
the statement of cash flows.

Concentration of credit risk

         The Company extends credit to its customers. The Company may extend
certain credit during the normal course of business operations which may be
unsecured. A substantial portion of the customers' ability to pay their debts
(Note 13) to the Company is dependent on the waste management economic sector.

<PAGE>   41
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.

Earnings per share

         Net earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding. For the period from inception (November 12,
1996) to March 31, 1997 an amount of one million shares was used to compute the
earnings per share. Primary and fully diluted earnings per share are the same
for the period. 11,490,000 shares were used to compute earnings per share pro
forma to give effect to the restructuring of common stock in June 1997 (Note
12).  Primary and fully diluted earnings per share are the same for the
pro-forma period.

Note 2 - Contracts receivable

         The Company utilized installment contracts to finance the sale of
sub-licenses by the Company. The terms of each contract indicate a license
price of $2,700,000 to be paid in three annual installments of $900,000. These
contracts are secured by certain assets and guarantees of the licensees and
their guarantors. Unamortized discount is based upon an imputed interest rate
of 9%. The analysis of the contracts at March 31, 1997 is as follows:

<TABLE>
                 <S>                                <C>

                                                    ----------
</TABLE>

         The Company at March 31, 1997 had two contracts with three year terms.
One contract matures in February 2000 and the other contract matures in March
2000. The contracts include the right of the licensor to charge the licensee a
royalty of 15% of gross income for each operating system. Each licensee obtains
a geographical area and is allowed to sell sub-licenses subject to the approval
of the licensor. The licensor is obligated primarily to provide a training
program and counsel on operational assistance.

Note 3 - Investment

         The Company holds an investment in preferred stock of a capital
corporation company with a 6% dividend per annum. The Company holds twenty
thousand shares of preferred stock recorded





                                      -10-
<PAGE>   42
Note 3 - Investment (continued)

at an estimated market value of $25,000. Each preferred stock share is
convertible into ten shares of common stock at the end of two years (December
1998). The common stock of the capital corporation is traded on the NASDAQ
exchange (bulletin board) with a trading range of 1/2 to 1/8 per share at March
31, 1997. The investment is held as available for sale based upon a contributed
cost of $25,000 and estimated fair market value of $25,000. No additional
valuation allowance has been recorded.

Note 4 - Master license costs

         The Company acquired a master license for the energy recycling
oxidation system in January 1997. The major terms of the acquisition of the
master license indicates that the Company is to pay $4,000,000 plus certain
legal costs for the master license to a foreign entity ("the Master Licensor")
which is controlled by the President of the Company.

         The Company paid $30,000 in legal costs to transfer the master
licensing rights. Per the contract the initial master license cost of
$4,000,000 has been earned by the licensor upon the signing of the contract.
The $4,000,000 contract amount is payable in January 2005. The present value of
the contract of $1,926,848 reflects a discount of 9% imputed interest rate and
has been deferred until paid. The master license cost has been initially
recorded at legal transfer costs of $30,000.

         Per the contract an additional $12,000,000 in master licensing costs
will be earned by the Master Licensor when the sale of four equipment systems
occurs by the Company at the rate of $3,000,000 per equipment system sale.
These costs will be payable as the equipment systems construction deposits are
collected.

         The contract also indicates that the Company will pay certain
commissions and fees to the Master Licensor as follows:

         (1)     5% of license fees sold to third parties.

         (2)     5% of gross profit resulting from sales of energy recycling
                 systems by the licensee to sub-licensees.

         (3)     5% of gross income resulting from the sale of products
                 produced from energy recycling systems sold through
                 sub-licensees.

         (4)     5% royalty fees on gross income on units owned and operated by
                 the licensee (ZEROS USA, Inc.).

Note 5 - Debentures payable

         The Company has $885,500 debentures payable to various individuals and
entities. The debentures including interest are due and payable on various
dates ranging from January 1, 1998 to March 15, 1998. The interest rate on the
debentures is 10% per annum. Each dollar of debenture is securitized by two
shares of Company common stock owned by the Company's President. Effective June
1997, the Company authorized 20 million shares of common stock to complete the
securitization of Company stock for the debenture holders. The debentures are
also exchangeable during the term of the debenture into Company common stock
from the President's shares of common stock.

Note 6 - Long term contract payable

         The Company has entered into a long term contract payable for the
purchase of the exclusive master license of the "ZEROS" System Technology (Note

Note 11 - Major customers

         The Company had revenue from licenses sold to two licensees at
approximately $1,692,000 for each licensee. Each sub-license represents
approximately 50% of total revenue.

Note 12 - Subsequent events

         In April 1997 the Company entered into a loan agreement with a bank
for a line of credit of $75,000 secured by a certificate of deposit of $78,000
at the bank. The bank line of credit is due in April 1998 at an interest rate
of 7%.  As of June 1997 the Company also obtained additional debentures payable
proceeds totaling $808,410. The additional debentures are at 10% per annum
maturing between April 1998 and June 1998 with principal and interest due at
maturity.  Each dollar of debenture is securitized by two shares of Company
common stock owned by the Company's President. The debentures are also
exchangeable during the term of the debenture into Company common stock from
the President's shares of common stock.

         In June 1997 the Company amended its articles of incorporation to
authorize twenty million shares of common stock at a $.001 par value and ten
million shares of preferred stock at a $5 stated value. The Company also
changed its name from "ZEROS", inc. to ZEROS USA, Inc. The Company then issued
8,100,000 of common stock at $.001 par value to the President for services
rendered in June 1997 fair valued at $8,100 and 900,000 shares rendered in June
1997 of common stock at $.001 to another shareholder for services fair valued
at $900. Effective June 1997 in conjunction with the merger of the parent and
the subsidiary, the Company also purchased the minority shares interest in the
subsidiary by exchanging 1,490,000 shares of common stock of the parent for the
minority shares of the subsidiary on a one share of minority interest for a one
share of parent Company common stock basis.

         The effect of earnings per share calculation based upon the
restructuring and merger of the common stock of the Company and Subsidiary is
as follows:

</TABLE>

         The net earnings per share before the restructuring and merger is
based upon 1,000,000 shares outstanding. The net pro forma earnings per share
after the merger is based upon the 11,490,000 shares of common stock
outstanding after the restructuring and merger of the common stock. Primary and

Note 13 - Financial instruments

         The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, contracts
receivable, an investment in preferred stock, a long term contract payable, and
debentures payable.

         Cash

         The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at
times, may exceed federally insured limits and a money market investment
account at a brokerage firm. The Company has not experienced any losses and it
believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risks affecting cash. At
March 31, 1997, $88,542 of its cash at a bank was maintained in excess of
federally insured amounts.

         Investment

         Management believes this investment in preferred stock (Note 3) is
fairly stated at its estimated net realizable value and a reserve for
additional valuation allowances is not required.

         Contracts receivable

         Management believes the carrying value of contracts receivable (Note
2) is fairly stated at estimated net realizable values and a reserve for
uncollectibility is not required. Management also believes the carrying value
of these contracts receivable represents fair value of these financial
instruments because terms are similar to those in the lending market for
comparable loans with comparable risks using an imputed interest rate of 9%
(Note 2).

         Long-term contract payable

         Management believes the carrying value of the long term contract
payable represents the fair value of this financial instrument because its
terms are similar to those in the lending market for comparable loans with
comparable risks utilizing a present value rate of 9% (Note 6).

         Debentures payable

         Management believes the carrying value of debentures payable
represents fair value of these financial instruments because terms are similar
to those in the lending market for comparable loans with comparable risks.

Organization

         ZEROS USA, Inc. (the "Company") formerly "ZEROS", inc. was
incorporated in the state of Texas on November 12, 1996. The Company develops
and sells technology for industrial waste systems. The Company has a master
license on the system (the "System") called "Zero Emission Energy Recycling
Oxidation System" or "ZEROS" - an energy recycling oxidation system. The
Company sells licenses for the System to sub-licensees both nationally and
internationally. The books and records of the Company are prepared on the
accrual basis for financial reporting purposes and the cash basis for federal
income tax purposes. The Company has elected a March 31 fiscal year end for
both financial and tax reporting purposes.

Basis of presentation and interim period

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements, which are for the
interim period, may not include all disclosures provided in the annual audited
financial statements. 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 three months ended June 30, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Revenue recognition

         The Company sells sub-licenses to the System and recognizes revenue on
licenses based upon milestones in the contract process. The milestones include
contract signing and delivery of the technology (75%), training on the
technology (15%) and testing of the system equipment (10%).

Organization costs

         Organization costs, primarily legal costs, are being amortized over a
sixty month (60) period. Amortization expense for the 3 months ended June 30,
1997 was $3,303.

Investment

         Investments are recorded at an estimated fair market value based upon
the investment held available for sale criteria in accordance with FASB #115 -
Accounting for Certain Debt and Equity Securities.

Note 1 - Significant accounting policies (continued)

Property and equipment

         Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided
on an accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as
follows:

                 Office equipment                  5 year

         All expenditures for major renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
When property and equipment are retired or disposed of the related costs and
accumulated depreciation are removed from the applicable accounts and any gain
or loss is reflected in income.  Depreciation expense for the 3 months ended
June 30, 1997 was $898.

Acquisition

         In February 1997 the Company acquired the majority stock (91%) of
Gunner Holdings, Inc. - a Utah corporation and changed its name to ZEROS USA,
Inc. - Utah. In June 1997, the subsidiary corporation was merged into ZERO USA,
Inc.  by issuance of 1,490,000 shares of parent stock on a one share for one
share basis to minority shareholders of the subsidiary and the merger of the
subsidiary into the parent under applicable state corporate law.

Income taxes

         The Company accounts for its income taxes using the Financial
Accounting Standards Board Statement No.109, "Accounting for Income Taxes"
(SFAS No.109) which requires the establishment of a deferred tax asset or
liability for taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and
deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.
Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by
a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely
than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of
changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Cash and cash equivalents

         The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of
three months or less, when purchased, to be "cash equivalents" for purposes of
the statement of cash flows.

Note 1 - Significant accounting policies (continued)

Concentration of credit risk

         The Company extends credit to its customers. The Company may extend
certain credit during the normal course of business operations which may be
unsecured. A substantial portion of the customers' ability to pay their debts
(Note 14) to the Company is dependent on the waste management economic sector.

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.

Earnings per share

         Net earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding. For the three months ended June 30, 1997,
1,115,275 shares was used to compute the earnings per share. Primary and fully
diluted earnings per share are the same for the period.

Note 2 - Contracts receivable

         The Company utilized installment contracts to finance the sale of
sub-licenses by the Company. The terms of each contract indicate a license
price of $2,700,000 to be paid in three annual installments of $900,000. These
contracts are secured by certain assets and guarantees of the licensees and
their guarantors. Unamortized discount is based upon an imputed interest rate
of 9%. The analysis of the contracts at June 30, 1997 is as follows:

of the licensor. The licensor is obligated primarily to provide a training
program and counsel on operational assistance.

The $4,000,000 contract amount is payable in January 2005. The present value of
the contract at its signing date of $1,926,848 reflects a discount of 9%
imputed interest rate and has been deferred until paid. The master license cost
has been initially recorded at the transfer costs of $30,000.

         Per the contract an additional $12,000,000 in master licensing costs
will be earned by the Master Licensor when the sale of four equipment systems
occurs by the Company at the rate of $3,000,000 per equipment system sale.
These costs will be payable as the equipment systems construction deposits are
collected.

         The contract also indicates that the Company will pay certain
commissions and fees to the Master Licensor as follows:

         (1)     5% of license fees sold to third parties.

                 systems by the licensee to sub-licensees.

         (3)     5% of gross income resulting from the sale of products
                 produced from energy recycling systems sold through

July 1998 with principal and interest due at maturity. Each dollar of debenture
is securitized by two shares of Company common stock owned by the Company's
President. The debentures are also exchangeable during the term of the
debenture into Company common stock from the President's shares of common
stock.

         The system equipment purchase (OCS assets purchase) from a related
party is currently under discussion.  Currently, the Company anticipates
issuance of preferred stock to acquire the OCS assets.

Note 14 - Financial instruments

         The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, certificate of
deposit, contracts receivable, an investment in preferred stock, a long term
contract payable, note payable, and debentures payable.

         Cash

         The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at
times, may exceed federally insured limits and a money market investment
account at a brokerage firm. The Company has not experienced any losses and it
believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risks affecting cash. At
June 30, 1997, $306,822 of its cash in banks wan maintained in excess of
federally insured amounts.

         Certificates of Deposit

         The Company has one year certificates of deposit with the bank which
exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses and
believes it is not exposed to any significant risks affecting certificates of
deposit.

         Investment

         Management believes this investment in preferred stock (Note 3) is
fairly stated at its estimated not realizable value and a reserve for
additional valuation allowances is not required.

Note 14 - Financial instruments (continued)

         Contracts receivable

         Management believes the carrying value of contracts receivable (Note
2) is fairly stated at estimated net realizable values and a reserve for
uncollectibility is not required. Management also believes the carrying value
of these contracts receivable represents fair value of these financial
instruments because terms are similar to those in the lending market for
comparable loans with comparable risks using an imputed interest rate of 9%
(Note 2).

         Long-term contract payable

         Management believes the carrying value of the long term contract
payable represents the fair value of this financial instrument because its
terms are similar to those in the lending market for comparable loans with
comparable risks utilizing a present value rate of 9% (Note 7).

         Notes payable

         Management believes the carrying value of notes payable approximates
fair value of these financial instruments.

         Debentures payable

         Management believes the carrying value of debentures payable
represents fair value of these financial instruments because terms are similar
to those in the lending market for comparable loans with comparable risks.

                    Six Month Period ended September 30, 1997

Note 1 - Significant accounting policies

Organization

     ZEROS USA, Inc. (the "Company") formerly "ZEROS", inc. was incorporated in
the state of Texas on November 12, 1996. The Company develops and sells
technology for industrial waste systems. The Company has a master license on the
system (the "System") called "Zero Emission Energy Recycling Oxidation System"
or "ZEROS" - an energy recycling oxidation system. The Company sells licenses
for the System to sub-licensees both nationally and internationally. The books
and records of the Company are prepared on the accrual basis for financial
reporting purposes and the cash basis for federal income tax purposes. The
Company has elected a March 31 fiscal year end for both financial and tax
reporting purposes.

Basis of presentation and interim period

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements, which are for the interim
period, may not include all disclosures provided in the annual audited financial
statements. 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 3 and 6 month periods ended September 30, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Revenue recognition

     The Company sells sub-licenses to the System and recognizes revenue on
licenses based upon milestones in the contract process. The milestones include
contract signing and delivery of the technology (75%), training on the
technology (15%) and testing of the system equipment (10%).

Organization costs

     Organization costs, primarily legal costs, are being amortized over a sixty
month (60) period. Amortization expense for the 3 and 6 month periods ended
September 30, 1997 were $3,303 and $6,605, respectively.

Note 1 - Significant accounting policies (continued)

Investment

   Investments are recorded at an estimated fair market value based upon the
investment held available for sale criteria in accordance with FASB #115 -
Accounting for Certain Debt and Equity Securities.

Property and equipment

   Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on an
accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

        Office equipment                           5 year

   All expenditures for major renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
When property and equipment are retired or disposed of the related costs and
accumulated depreciation are removed from the applicable accounts and any gain
or loss is reflected in income. Depreciation expense for the 3 and 6 month
periods ended September 30, 1997 were $1,1378 and $2,037, respectively.

Acquisition

   In February 1997 the Company acquired the majority stock (91%) of Gunner
Holdings, Inc. - a Utah corporation and changed its name to ZEROS USA, Inc. -
Utah. In June 1997, the subsidiary corporation was merged into ZERO USA, Inc. by
issuance of 1,490,000 shares of parent stock on a one share for one share basis
to minority shareholders of the subsidiary and the merger of the subsidiary into
the parent under applicable state corporate law.

Note 1 - Significant accounting policies (continued)

Income taxes

   The Company accounts for its income taxes using the Financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS No. 109)
which requires the establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability for
taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax
assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax
liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary
differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation
allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that
some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws
and rates on the date of enactment.

Cash and cash equivalents

   The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three
months or less, when purchased, to be "cash equivalents" for purposes of the
statement of cash flows.

Concentration of credit risk

   The Company extends credit to its customers. The Company may extend certain
credit during the normal course of business operations which may be unsecured. A
substantial portion of the customers' ability to pay their debts (Note 14) to
the Company is dependent on the waste management economic sector.

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.

Note 1 - Significant accounting policies (continued)

Earnings per share

   Primary earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of
shares of common stock and common stock equivalents(convertible preferred
stock). Primary earnings per share is computed by dividing (a) net income by (b)
average number of common shares outstanding, increased by common equivalent
shares (convertible preferred stock) determined by using the treasury method.
Fully diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing (a) net income plus
interest on debentures and Series A bonds net of applicable income taxes by (b)
common and common stock equivalents shares outstanding plus shares which would
by issued upon conversion of the debentures and Series A bonds. For the 3 and 6
month periods ended September 30, 1997, 11,567,337 and 6,369,863 shares were
used to compute primary earnings (loss) per share. For the 3 and 6 month periods
ended September 30, 1997, 11,698,762 and 6,435,935 shares were used to compute
fully diluted earnings (loss) per share.

Note 2 - Contracts receivable

   The Company utilized installment contracts to finance the sale of
sub-licenses by the Company. The terms of each contract indicate a license price
of $2,700,000 to be paid in 3 annual installments of $900,000. These contracts
are secured by certain assets and guarantees of the licensees and their
guarantors. Unamortized discount is based upon an imputed interest rate of 9%.
The analysis of the contracts at September 30, 1997 is as follows:

</TABLE>

   The Company at September 30, 1997 had three contracts with three year terms.
The contracts mature in February 2000, March 2000 and April 2000. The contracts
include the right of the licensor to charge the licensee a royalty of 15% of
gross income for each operating system. Each licensee obtains a geographical
area and is allowed to sell sub-licenses subject to the approval of the
licensor. The licensor is obligated primarily to provide a training program and
counsel on operational assistance.

Note 3 - Investment

   The Company holds an investment in preferred stock of a capital corporation
company with a 6% dividend per annum. The Company holds twenty thousand shares
of preferred stock recorded at an estimated market value of $25,000. Each
preferred stock share is convertible into ten shares of common stock at the end
of two years (December 1998). The common stock of the capital corporation is
traded on the NASDAQ exchange (bulletin board) with a trading range of 1/2 to
1/8 per share at September 30, 1997. The investment is held as available for
sale based upon a contributed cost of $25,000 and estimated fair market value of
$25,000. No additional valuation allowance has been recorded.

Note 4 - Master license costs

   The Company acquired a master license for the energy recycling oxidation
system in January 1997. The major terms of the acquisition of the master license
indicates that the Company is to pay $4,000,000 plus certain legal costs for the
master license to a foreign entity ("the Master Licensor") which is controlled
by the president of the Company.

   The Company paid $30,000 in legal costs to transfer the master licensing
rights. Per the contract the initial master license cost of $4,000,000 has been
earned by the licensor upon the signing of the contract. The $4,000,000 contract
amount is payable in January 2005. The present value of the contract at its
signing date of $1,926,848 reflects a discount of 9% imputed interest rate and
has been deferred until paid. The master license cost has been initially
recorded at the transfer costs of $30,000.

   Per the contract an additional $12,000,000 in master licensing costs will be
earned by the Master Licensor when the sale of four equipment systems occurs by
the Company at the rate of $3,000,000 per equipment system sale. These costs
will be payable as the equipment systems construction deposits are collected.

     The Company has one year certificates of deposit with the bank which exceed
federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses and
believes it is not exposed to any significant risks affecting certificates of

   Investment

     Management believes this investment in preferred stock (Note 3) is fairly 
stated at its estimated net realizable value and a reserve for additional 
valuation allowances is not required.

   Contracts receivable

     Management believes the carrying value of contracts receivable (Note 2) is
fairly stated at estimated net realizable values and a reserve for
uncollectibility is not required. Management also believes the carrying value of
these contracts receivable represents fair value of these financial instruments
because terms are similar to those in the lending market for comparable loans
with comparable risks using an imputed interest rate of 9% (Note 2).

   Long-term contract payable

     Management believes the carrying value of the long-term contract payable
represents the fair value of this financial instrument because its terms are
similar to those in the lending market for comparable loans with comparable
risks utilizing a present value rate of 9% (Note 7).

   Notes payable

     Management believes the carrying value of notes payable approximates fair
value of these financial instruments.

   Debentures payable

     Management believes the carrying value of debentures payable represents 
fair value of these financial instruments because terms are similar to those in
the lending market for comparable loans with comparable risks.
