BACKGROUND AND REORGANIZATION
-------------------------------
Digital Video Display Technology Corp. (Company) was incorporated under the laws
of the State of Nevada on August 1, 1997, under the name Meximed Industries. On
January 27, 1999, Company filed an Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation
changing its name to Digital Video Display Technology Corp.
Company was initially formed to engage in the business of developing, producing
and distributing a non-reusable medical syringe. In July 1998, Company raised a
total of $200,000 in a public offering pursuant to an
2
<PAGE>
exemption provided by Rule 504 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended. The offering was approved for sale by The New York
State Department of Law. After recognizing the syringe project was going to be
far too expensive and difficult to pursue, Company began looking for another
business to acquire.
In January 1999, Company completed a reorganization and change in control and
acquired a License to a U.S. Patent for proprietary technology for an audio
video jukebox system from Software Control Systems International Inc., a
Canadian corporation and unrelated third party (SCSI). As consideration for the
License, Company agreed to pay SCSI the sum of $250,000 U.S. in cash and issued
SCSI 2,000,000 shares of its restricted common stock. The License is for a term
of 15 years and grants Company an exclusive right to market and sell the SCSI
proprietary technology and products throughout Canada and the states of Oregon,
Washington, Montana, Idaho and Hawaii. Subsequently, on May 10, 1999, registrant
entered into a Distributor Agreement with SCSI granting SCSI the right to act as
a distribution agent for Company. Pursuant to the Agreement, Company will supply
SCSI a minimum of 500 jukebox systems at a price of $7,500 which may be paid in
full at the time of delivery or at the rate of $150 per month for 60 months.
On September 1, 1999, the SCSI agreement was modified. The amendment
stated that the Company was obligated to pay the $250,000 in $20,000
installments, beginning December 15, 1999, with a final payment of
$10,000 due on December 15, 2000. This amendment was never ratified by
the Company's Board. As of December 31, 1999, no payment has been made
to the third party. The 2,000,000 restricted shares were to be held by
SCSI for two years. SCSI had attempted to sell 230,000 shares of the
stock before the two years expired, so the Company stopped the sale,
and canceled the shares.
On May 5, 2000, the Company received a letter from the SCSI attorneys.
This letter demanded that the 2,000,000 shares be reinstated, and that
the Company pay the $250,000 that was originally agreed upon. The
letter also demanded a distributorship for two of the officers of SCSI
to distribute the Company's video jukeboxes at 10% commission in Canada
and the Northwestern United States. Other settlement alternatives were
also offered. The Company has responded to SCSI attorney deadlines, and
is awaiting response. The Company believes this dispute can be settled
without litigation.

Proprietary Technology and Products
-----------------------------------
Company's proprietary technology creates an interactive, audio-visual jukebox
system (the "DVD Juke System") linked to a satellite server network (the "DVD
Satellite System"). The DVD Juke System and the DVD Satellite System are
collectively referred to as the DVD System." In addition to revolutionizing the
conventional jukebox, the DVD System was designed to create a totally new
marketing venue.
(a) The DVD Juke System: Company's main product is the DVD Juke System, which is
an interactive audio/video entertainment kiosk. The DVD Juke System has
significantly greater flexibility and content than any product currently on the
market since it is capable of playing individual musical selections similar to a
standard jukebox; however, the DVD Juke System also has many additional revenue
generating capabilities. A standard jukebox is able to store approximately 100
CD's, whereas the DVD Juke System is currently capable of storing on the
internal hard drive 1,000 songs and 250 music videos. Company expects to install
improvements to the System such that, within a year, the DVD Juke System will be
capable of storing 4,500 audio tracks and 3,000 music videos. Unlike
conventional jukebox, the DVD Juke System is capable of playing music videos, as
well as audio tracks. Any number of video terminals and TV's are connected by
cable to the DVD Juke System and placed throughout each location. When a
customer chooses a video selection, the DVD Juke System displays the video on
the video terminals and TV's and plays the audio track of the song on the
location's sound system. The DVD Juke System also contains a user interface that
enables a consumer to seek information about artists, receive coupons providing
discounts on merchandise, and provides e-commerce connectivity to prime retail
web sites that offer products.
The DVD Juke System's audio and video capability allows it to run the
full-fledged audio-visual advertisements seen on television. The system has
approximately 12,000 minutes of available ad space per month. The Company will
be attempting to sell advertising time slots to national advertisers and is
currently in discussions with several companies in this regard. The
advertisements will run for 15, 30 or 45 seconds. There are 16 advertising spots
per hour during prime time that will be interlaced between the music video
selections. In addition, the system will offer customized content such as
concerts, chat groups, custom comedy selections, new artist previews,
infomercials, entertainment product marketing and merchandising video with
instant click-through e-commerce opportunities, as well as many other potential
programming highlights. This content is expected to create marketing
opportunities for marketers and enhance the DVD Juke System's unique features.
The DVD Juke System will also print discount and cross-promotional coupons.
Certain musical selections will trigger the Juke System to print coupons
extending offers from various marketers. The Company will derive revenue on a
per-coupon-issued basis or by receiving a percentage of the sales generated by
redeemed coupons.
In addition, the DVD Juke System will be connected to the Internet via a virtual
private network, proprietary to Company. Consumers will be automatically linked
to the web sites of the record companies whose songs have been selected, and
will be able to "click through" to additional web sites. Consumers will be able
to browse through these web sites and to purchase CD's and merchandise at the
sites.
The DVD Juke System's advertising, marketing and promotional capabilities will
provide advertisers and marketers with a new avenue with which they will be able
to target a captive audience where they have chosen to sit and relax and may be
prone to impulse purchasing. This aspect of the DVD Juke System is unique to
Company and currently unavailable by any other means. The DVD Juke System
effectively creates a new advertising and promotional channel for marketers.
Currently conventional jukeboxes allow for payment in cash only. The DVD Juke
System allows for payment by cash, credit card, debit cards and smart cards/
loyalty cards.
The DVD Juke System is also capable of collecting, storing and disseminating
data, including play lists and personal information input by its customers. The
play lists generated by the DVD Juke System are flexible and are capable of
providing the total number of plays of a given song, record company totals and
location-specific information, depending on the desired output. Company intends
to market this information to record companies and brand advertisers.
The conventional jukebox is different in that it holds complete CD's. Because of
this, several songs take up space in the jukebox that would otherwise not have
been chosen by the jukebox owner. That is, in order to stock the
4
<PAGE>
one or two popular songs of a given artist on a given CD, the jukebox owner has
no choice but to stock the rest of the songs on that artist's CD. With DVD Juke
System technology, each song is copied in digital format onto the hard drive of
the DVD Juke System, just as files are copied onto a computer's hard drive
allowing the location owner to stock only the specific tracks he/she wishes to
stock. In this way, only the most popular songs by any given artist will be
loaded onto the DVD Juke System's hard drive without any extraneous, unwanted
songs taking up potential revenue-generating space.
An important and unique programming feature of the DVD Juke System is that the
content can be customized for each location, and may be updated as frequently as
a location owner desires. The location owner may order the Juke System pre-
programmed with standard combinations of rock and pop standards, jazz, country
and western, and recent hits, or can order programming specifically tailored to
their geographic area and/or their customers' demographics. Company will provide
content and updating of content for $100.00 per month, providing an additional
source of income to Company.
(b) The DVD Satellite System: The DVD Satellite System is a proprietary
satellite server network which will provide content and updated content to DVD
Juke Systems throughout North America. The content will be transmitted, or
"uplinked," from Company's central server to satellites, and then "downlinked"
from the satellites to satellite dishes stationed at each location. The content
will be stored in digital format on the DVD Juke Systems' high capacity hard
drives. The Satellite System will also create a private network, which will be
capable of collecting data and remotely managing the stand-alone DVD Juke
Systems.
The DVD Satellite System technology is expected to significantly reduce the time
and cost involved in providing content and updated content to sites once a
critical mass of locations has been installed. The Satellite System technology
also allows for the easy and flexible loading and re-loading of content by
providing updates by satellite, obviating the need to send service technicians
to individual locations to update each DVD Juke System's content.
Service and Support
---------------------
The DVD Juke System will be sold with a content, service, maintenance, and
management contract which will be subcontracted to an independent third party.
Company has been verbally negotiating with several large, well-established
independent service organizations which offer seven-day a week, 24-hour a day
maintenance and service. Company feels service will be a primary concern to
location owners who have installed or are contemplating installing a jukebox.
Industry Background
--------------------
Currently, the conventional jukebox industry generates over $2.5 billion per
year in coin drop revenues in the United States alone (Vending Times, 1998).
There are approximately 350,000 jukeboxes operating in the United States. The
average jukebox generates revenues of approximately $600 per month based on
1,800 selections played. Currently there are approximately 50 large distributors
and 7,500 operators managing this business.
The business model for the jukebox industry has been under tremendous pressure
over the past five years due to the emergence of broadcast music video, video
game narrowcast networks, and other media competing for the attention of
consumers. In addition, certain basic economic factors must be considered in
evaluating any entry into the jukebox industry, which are set forth below:
- The cost for audio plays has remained static at three plays for a $1.00.
(This number is trending downward to as low as 5 plays for $1.00.)
- The average play time of a jukebox is 7,200 minutes per month, based on
1,800 plays within a 13 hour day, six days a week. The total playtime
possible within this timeframe is 20,280 minutes.
- A cost efficient video jukebox does not exist in the market today.
- Service, maintenance, and content-update costs continue to rise.
- Theft, and pilferage continue to be on the rise.
- Intense competition for prime locations continue to erode operating
margins.
Any entrant into the jukebox industry must be prepared to operate within these
parameters and to cooperate with the current distributors, while at the same
time introducing cutting edge technology into the industry to obviate potential
competitive technologies. Today, in this industry, jukebox manufacturers all
suffer from technological obsolescence.

Competition
-----------
Company's primary competitors are manufacturers of conventional jukeboxes. The
largest manufacturers of conventional jukeboxes and their estimated market share
as of 1997 are the following companies:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
<S> <C>
Rowe International, Grand Rapids, Michigan: 40%
NSM America, Bensenville, Illinois: 25%
Rock-Ola Manufacturing, Torrance California: 25%
Wurlitzer Jukebox, Gurnee Illinois: 10%
</TABLE>
Company has not been able to identify any competitors with technology comparable
or similar to the DVD Juke System . However, all of Company's primary
competitors are substantially larger and have significantly greater financial
resources than Company. In addition, their distribution channels are fully
established and their brand names are well-known.
In 1997, manufacturers sold approximately 22,000 jukebox units for a total
retail value of $132 million. The average retail price of a jukebox, loaded with
content, was $6,000 per unit.
Company has identified other competition for the DVD Juke System, primarily from
audio music private networks, cable and satellite. Examples are MTV, MuchMusic,
and VH1. Because these companies have entirely different distribution and
pricing models than the conventional electro-mechanical jukebox companies,
direct comparisons cannot be made.
Marketing Plan
--------------
Company intends to aggressively market the superior technology of the DVD Juke
System. Its initial goal is to replace approximately 10%-15% of the 350,000
conventional jukeboxes located primarily in bars and restaurants with the DVD
Juke System within the next 3 years, as more fully described below. Company
believes it can accomplish this goal by forming business relationships with the
top distributors in the jukebox industry by offering a unique split of the coin
drop revenues generated by the DVD Juke System, thereby enhancing the total
revenue generated by its partners within the industry. However, Company has not
yet formed any such business relationships. Company will also attempt to expand
the market for the DVD Juke System beyond bars and restaurants to fast food
restaurants, colleges, shopping centers, etc.
The incentives provided to distributors for forging such relationships will be
(i) significant new revenue potential from their distribution network, (ii)
exclusive territorial boundaries granted by Company, thereby ensuring maximum
penetration of the new product, (iii) long-term access to new video products and
(iv) access to the entertainment, e-commerce business. In addition, Company has
addressed the problems of the industry as follows:
- By providing video, the cost per play can be increased to two selections for
$1.00, thereby increasing the pay-for-play revenue
- Because the DVD Juke System includes video, it can offer 600 minutes per
month of prime time consumer and brand advertising (
- The company can offer off-peak customized content of 12,480 minutes at
Internet prices ($15.00 per hour) representing a minim
- The DVD Juke system will retail at comparable prices to the standard jukebox
- The entire system is networked for cost effective remote diagnostics and
satellite downloading of content, reducing infrastructure
- The distributors and operators will be able to remotely access each DVD Juke
System, ensuring security and optimum management
- The industry will have a state-of-the-art product for their locations that is
revenue generating, versus subscription or cost
- The distributors will have a product that they can expand into many new
channels of distribution, such as hotels, malls, fast
Company intends to work closely with its distributors in marketing the DVD Juke
System to the bars and restaurants that commonly have jukeboxes.
Company is in the process of introducing the DVD Juke System to several national
brand name advertisers, most of which have requested a demonstration.

<PAGE>
To date, presentations have been made to several potential Advertisers. The
response of these advertisers has been positive and discussions are currently
under way with various advertisers to become sponsors of the DVD Juke System.
However, no such sponsors have entered into agreements to date.
Company's marketing plan also includes the following marketing and promotional
activities, which Company anticipates will create further interest in the DVD
Juke System:
(a) Test Marketing: Company expects the DVD Juke System to be fully operational
by mid-February 2000 and intends to perform a 20-unit trial in the New York
metropolitan area between March and April of 2000. Certain test locations will
be chosen to market the DVD Juke System to the Hispanic and African American
communities. This market segment represents the largest coin-drop per unit of
any group. Company expects to fully launch the Juke System to the public in May
2000.
(b) Trade Shows: Company will participate as an exhibitor to demonstrate the DVD
Juke System and issue new product releases at selected national and
international trade shows sponsored by the Amusement and Music Operators
Association (AMOA) and Amusement Showcase International (ASI). Company considers
the following Year 2000 trade shows to be excellent venues in which to
demonstrate its DVD Juke System: the Point-of-Purchase Advertising Institute
Show, the Annual Nightclub and Bar Show, the Family Entertainment Centers Show,
and the International Amusement Parks and Attractions Show. Other possible
venues will include the National Restaurant Show, the Convenience Store Show,
the American Hotel and Motel Show, and the International Shopping Center Show.
(c) Trade Publications: A number of print media opportunities exist for
promoting the DVD Juke System in order to communicate the superiority of the DVD
Juke System compared to conventional jukeboxes. These publications include
Replay Magazine, Playmeter Magazine, Vending Times, Street Beat Magazine,
Nightclub and Bar Magazine and Fun World Magazine. Company intends to advertise
its DVD Juke System in some or all of these publications to promote the product.
(d) Promotional Video and Informational Kit: Company intends to produce a
promotional/informational video describing the DVD Juke System and its features,
benefits and values. A brochure and informational kit will also be created
summarizing the features of the DVD Juke System. The materials will
differentiate the product from its competitors' products outlining the
advantages and superiority of the DVD Juke System over conventional jukeboxes.
Manufacturing and Distribution
--------------------------------
Company has established business relationships with some distributors in the
jukebox industry and has verbal agreements with certain distributors and written
agreements with additional distributors to market the DVD Juke System to the
locations that they service.
Software Control Systems International, Inc., the Canadian distributor, has
entered into a Letter of Intent with the Windfield Group, one of Canada's
largest distributors, to form a joint venture for the purpose of distributing
jukeboxes. The joint venturers and Company are entering into a distribution
agreement which includes a commitment to install 1,000 units in the first year
of Company's operations at the rate of approximately 80 units per month.
Patents and Copyright Protection
-----------------------------------
Company has entered into a License Agreement for the rights to use U.S. Patent
#5481509, issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office on January 2,
1996, with Software Control Systems International Inc. (SCSI), an unrelated
third party. The License Agreement grants Company the exclusive right to use
SCSI's patented technology, which is the basis for the DVD Juke System. The
License Agreement was executed on March 1, 1999 and is effective until 2017. As
consideration for the licensing right, Company agreed to pay SCSI the amount of
$250,000 in cash; 2,000,000 restricted shares of common stock of Company; and
the right to appoint one director Company's Board. According to the terms of the
License Agreement, Company is not required to pay SCSI any additional
consideration for the rights granted therein. SCSI is unrelated to the Company,
and does not control Company's Board or govern its business decisions and
policies.
Company has also developed additional technology of its own which is utilized in
the DVD Juke System, and continues to develop technology to further enhance the
DVD Juke System. The software comprising the DVD Juke System will be covered by
appropriate patent protection and copyright registration.

Licenses
--------
Company is actively pursuing license agreements with several record companies
for the right to display music videos. Company does not expect to incur a cost
for such rights, but rather, in exchange for the right to display their videos,
Company is offering record companies programming information such as play lists
compiled by the DVD Juke System and cross-promotions. As an example of the
latter, every time a certain music video by a well-known artist is selected by a
customer, Company will program the DVD Juke System to also play at no additional
cost a music video by an unknown artist that the record company is attempting to
promote. Additionally, since music videos are primarily considered promotional
materials by the record companies, as opposed to revenue generating assets,
Company expects to obtain the rights to display music videos on the DVD Juke
System at no cost to Company.
Company intends to generate revenue from e-commerce, specifically by
automatically linking consumers to the web sites of the record companies whose
songs have been selected. The consumers will then be able to "click through" to
additional web sites to browse as well as to purchase CD's and merchandise.
Company intends to obtain licenses from web sites such as Amazon.com and CD Now
to allow consumers to click through to such sites and purchase CD's and
merchandise.
In accordance with The Copyright Act of 1976, as amended, Company is not
required to obtain licenses to stock the audio content of the DVD Juke System.
Payment of a performance royalty is required for the songs played over the DVD
Juke System; however, this fee is the responsibility of the location owner and
Company has no responsibility for this fee or for obtaining performance licenses
for the locations.
Company also intends to expand the scope of its content licenses and obtain
licenses that will enable it to display sports highlight films, comedy clips and
pay-per-view events on the DVD Juke System.
Relationships with Third-Parties
--------------------------------
On March 30, 1999, Company entered into a Letter of Agreement with The Investor
Relations Group (IRG), an unrelated third party. Pursuant to the terms of the
Agreement, IRG will provide Company investor relations and corporate
communications services in exchange for $10,000 per month in cash, beginning
April 1, 1999, for a period of 1 year, renewable annually thereafter. As
additional compensation, Company granted IRG stock options, with piggy- back
rights, to purchase up to a total of 150,000 shares of Company's restricted
common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share. In addition, Company has
agreed to register the shares subject of the option with its first appropriate
registration statement.
On November 19, 1999, Company entered into an Agreement for Financial
Communication Services with North American Corporate Consultants, Inc. (NACC),
an unrelated third party. Pursuant to the Agreement, NACC will assist Company on
a non-exclusive basis in developing, implementing and maintaining an ongoing
market awareness program for a period of 6 months from the date of the
Agreement. As compensation for its services, NACC shall receive 277,500 shares
of Company's restricted common stock, payable in monthly increments of 87,500
shares for the first two months, 27,500 shares the third month, and 25,000
shares the last 3 months of the term. In addition, in the event NACC is the
procuring cause in a successful merger, acquisition or corporate financing on
behalf of Company, NACC shall be compensated in the amount of 5% of the
merger/acquisition value, or the total value of the corporate financing,
whichever is applicable. Any such fees would be due and payable at the close of
the transaction.
Company is also currently in negotiations with NeTune Communications to provide
satellite links and telecommunications technology that will allow Company to
transmit content to the DVD Juke Systems. NeTune provides wireless multimedia
network and telecommunications services primarily to the motion picture,
television and advertising industry. NeTune's technology allows high quality
sound and images to be transmitted via satellite from remote locations to
production studios. NeTune's technology also includes an elaborate, multilevel,
state-of-the-art encryption and security system which protects the content
transmitted over its system. The technology utilized by NeTune is proprietary
and covered by 40 United States patents. NeTune is currently in the process of
expanding its business and technology model to other industries that require
high resolution, broadband telecommunications services. NeTune utilizes leased
satellite transponders which cover most of North America. The NeTune satellite
delivery system provides global connectivity on demand 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week. NeTune's ability to transmit extremely high-quality sound and images is
extremely beneficial to Company, since Company will save time
8
<PAGE>
and money delivering content to its DVD Juke Systems, while maintaining a high
quality of digital sound and images.
In April, 1999, Company retained The Marshall Firm, an entertainment law firm
located in New York City, of which Marilyn Haft, an officer, director and
shareholder of Company, is associated, to obtain and negotiate licenses for
music and music video content for the DVD Juke System. The Marshall Firm is
well-known for its expertise in entertainment law and its many contacts in
entertainment industry, especially the music industry. Pursuant to the letter of
engagement, Company paid The Marshall Firm a retainer in the sum of $15,000
against which legal fees will be billed at The Marshall Firm's customary rates
of between $125 and $475 an hour.
In August, 1999, Company entered into an Agreement for Computer and/or
Programming Services with FirePlug Computers Inc., an unrelated third party, to
design and system software development, documentation, testing, project
management and implementation of the DVD Juke System. All services will be
billed on an hourly rate ranging from $45 to $150/hour.
In November, 1999, Company entered into an Agreement for Financial Communica-
tion Services with North American Corporate Consultants, Inc., (NACC) an
unrelated third party to assist Company on a non-exclusive basis to develop,
implement and maintain an ongoing market awareness program for its products. The
term of the Agreement is for 6 months. As consideration for the services,
Company has agreed to issue to NACC a total of 277,500 shares of its restricted
common stock in the following denominations: 87,500 for each of the first two
months of the Agreement, 27,500 shares the third month and 25,000 for shares
each of the last three months. In addition, in the event NACC is the procuring
cause of a successful merger, acquisition or corporate financing on behalf of
Company, NACC will receive 5% of the merger/acquisition value or the total value
of the corporate financing, whichever applies, payable at the time of closing of
the transaction.
Future Projects in Development
---------------------------------
Company intends to generate additional future revenues by pressing, or
"burning," CD's at each DVD Juke System. "Burning" a CD means copying a song or
songs onto a blank CD.
Company projects the DVD Juke System to be able to burn CD's by the third
quarter of 2000. When this process is fully operational, consumers will be able
to copy onto a CD a song or songs they have selected on a fee-per-song basis.
Company expects to generate revenue by retaining a percentage of the cost per
song charged to the consumer. Company intends to offer the record companies a
percentage of the income generated by each burned CD in exchange for the right
to reproduce their songs, while retaining a five to ten percent (5-10%) royalty
for each song copied onto a CD by the DVD Juke System.
The Company is also developing technology which will allow the DVD Juke System
to be capable of video-conferencing and dispensing cash as an automatic teller
machine ("ATM"). These additional uses of the DVD Juke System involve only minor
modifications to the Company's current technology. For example, the Juke System
technology is already capable of accepting and calculating the amounts of
currency input into the unit; dispensing cash will involve only minor
adjustments to already existing technology. Therefore, Company expects to be
able to implement these additional uses of the DVD Juke System in the second
quarter of 2000.
In addition, with only minor additions to Company's content, the DVD Juke System
will be capable of playing sports highlight films, comedy clips and pay-per-view
events. These additional content categories do not involve technological
advances, but merely expanding Company's content licenses and marketing these
additional uses of the DVD Juke System to distributors, location owners and
ultimate consumers. Company intends to launch these efforts in the fourth
quarter 2000.
Company is also developing an independent audio and video network designed to
provide background video and advertising for hospitality and retail locations.
The system is designed to replace the VCR and Laser Disc players used by tens of
thousands of hospitality and retail locations. The product will provide
interactive commercial support at the point of sale, creating a new media
channel for locations to assist consumer brand companies in enhancing their
visibility on the sites where their products are sold.
Additional Information

The Company intends to provide annual reports to its security holders, and to
make quarterly reports available for inspection by its security holders. The
annual report will include audited financial statements.
The Company is subject to the informational requirements of the Securities

Results of Operations
-----------------------
Limited Operating History; Accumulated Deficit; Need for Additional Capital
There is limited historical financial information about the Company upon which
to base an evaluation of the Company's performance or to make a decision
regarding an investment in shares of the Company's Common Stock. The Company has
an accumulated deficit of $717,113 through December 31, 1999. The Company's cash
decreased from $194,124 at December 31, 1998 to $2,079 at December 31, 1999.
Year Ended December 31, 1999 Compared to Year Ended
December 31, 1998
The Company has not yet realized any revenue from its business operations.
Operating and administrative expenses from inception to the year ended December
31, 1999 were $708,312, and represent the majority of the Company's net loss to
date.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased from $199,500 for the year
ended December 31, 1998 to $215,500 for the period ended December 31, 1999, as a
result of proceeds in the amount of $215,500 received from Line of Credit.
The Company's net loss for the period from inception to December 31, 1999 was a
deficit of $717,113, or a deficit of $.0312 per share, based on 23,250,000
weighted average shares outstanding at December 31, 1999. Since there have been
no revenues realized since inception, no comparison of net loss is made.

<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
Due to the infant stage of its operations, substantial ongoing investment in
software development, and expenditures required to build the appropriate
infrastructure to support expected future growth, The Company has been
substantially dependent on private placements of its equity securities and a
bank line of credit to fund its cash requirements.
Net cash used in operating activities increased from $9,513 for the year ended
December 31, 1998 to $407,545 for the period from inception to December 31,
1999.
Proceeds from common stock subscriptions decreased from $194,635 for the year
ended December 31, 1998 to 0 for the year ended December 31, 1999.
As of December 31, 1999, the Company had total assets of $256,190 and total
liabilities of $791,679.

Independent Auditors' Report
----------------------------
May 31, 2000
Board of Directors
Digital Video Display Technology Corporation
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Digital Video Display
Technology Corporation (a Company in the development stage) as of December 31,
1998 and 1999, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity,
and cash flows from inception (August 1, 1997) through December 31, 1998, and
for the year ended December 31, 1999. 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 audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audits 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 audits provide 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 Digital Video Display
Technology Corporation (a Company in the development stage), as of December 31,
1998 and 1999, and the results of its operations and its cash flows from
inception (August 1, 1997) through December 31, 1998, and for the year ended
December 31, 1999, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 1 to the
financial statements, the Company is in the development stage, and existing cash
and available credit are insufficient to fund the Company's cash flow needs for
the next year. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described
in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
For the Period From Inception (August 1, 1997) Through December 31, 1999
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
------------------------------------------------
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 1, 1997,
under the name Meximed Industries, Inc. The Company is in the
development stage as its operations principally involve research and
development, market analysis, and other business planning activities,
and no revenue has been generated from its business activities.
Originally, the Company intended to distribute non-reusable medical
syringes. In January 1999, the Company abandoned its plan to distribute
medical syringes, and changed its name to Digital Video Display
Technology Corporation. The Company intends to create a Digital Video
Display jukebox system for distribution in Canada and the United
States.
These financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. The Company is currently in the
development stage, and existing cash and available credit are
insufficient to fund the Company's cash flow needs for the next year.
As discussed in Note 4, on April 15, 1999, an unrelated third party
extended the Company a line of credit, which is due on demand June 1,
2000. The Company plans to raise additional capital in the near future
through private placements, ranging from between $6,000,000 to
$8,000,000.
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.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
-------------------------
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 1999, the
Company held no cash equivalents.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
------------------------------------------------------------
PRIOR PERIOD ADJUSTMENT
-----------------------
The accompanying financial statements for 1998 have been restated to
correct an error made in 1998. Legal fees incurred in 1998 were not
expensed during 1998. The effect of the restatement was to increase the
net loss for 1998 by $25,000 ($0.0007 per share).
ADVERTISING COSTS
------------------
Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Total
advertising costs charged to expense for the years ended December 31,
1999 and 1998, were $3,750 and $0, respectively.
RENT EXPENSES
-------------
For years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, the total expense was $864
and $0, repectively.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
------------------------------
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Such costs
were $159,027 and $0 at December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998,
respectively.
2. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
--------------------
The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and benefits for the
expected future tax impact of transactions that have been accounted for
differently for book and tax purposes.
Deferred tax benefits and liabilities are calculated using enacted tax
rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to
reverse. A valuation allowance has been provided to reduce the asset to
the amount of tax benefit management believes it will more likely than
not realize. As time passes, management will be able to better assess
the amount of tax benefit it will realize from using the carryforward.

abandoned and the related asset was written off.

3. OTHER ASSETS (CONTINUED)
------------------------
The other assets at December 31, 1999, consist of patent rights to a
jukebox entertainment system. In February, 1999, the Company purchased
the patent rights from an unrelated third party in exchange for
2,000,000 shares of common stock and $250,000 due in September, 1999.
The purchase agreement was subsequently modified to provide for payment
of the $250,000 in monthly installments of $20,000 with the final
payment due in December, 2000. As of December 31, 1999, no payments
have been made. In a subsequent action in April 2000, the Company
canceled the 2,000,000 shares previously issued and is currently
renegotiating the purchase agreement. Legal questions have also been
raised as to the seller's rights to the patent due to a previous sale.
4. LINE OF CREDIT
--------------

6. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
-----------------------------------
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 107,
"Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments" is a part of a
continuing process by the FASB to improve information on financial
statements. The following methods and assumptions were used by the
Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for such financial
instruments as defined by the Statement.
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and
receivables approximate fair value at December 31, 1999 and 1998.
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for the other
assets approximate fair value at December 31, 1999 and 1998, as the
assets were recently purchased at fair market value.
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for accounts
payable approximate fair value at December 31, 1999 and 1998 as the
payables mature in less than one year.
The estimated fair values of the line of credit are not materially
different from the carrying values for financial statement purposes at
December 31, 1999 and 1998.

at $2.50 per share, to the President, CEO, and Director. The option
expires March 31, 2001 (see Note 5). The Company also issued an option

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
-----------------------------
The Company is involved in a dispute pertaining to the purchase of the
patent rights for the jukebox entertainment system. The original
purchase provided for payment of $250,000 and issuance of 2,000,000
shares of common stock in exchange for the patent rights. No monies
have been paid and in April 2000, the Company canceled the stock that
had been previously issued.
Questions have also arisen as to the seller's legal rights to the
patent. The seller has made legal demands for reinstatement of the
shares and fulfillment of other conditions. Negotiations are underway
and management believes that the matter will be resolved without
further legal action.
The Company is a defendant in an action by a former service provider
over services provided and fees due. In the opinion of the Company,
amounts accrued at this time for such services are adequate and the
ultimate resolutions of this matter will not have a material adverse
effect on the financial position or overall trends in the results of
operations of the Company.
