                          VICTORMAXX TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
                     Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

1. Basis Of Preparation

The accompanying condensed financial statements of VictorMaxx Technologies, Inc.
(the "Company") for the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 have
been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the
disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto, together with management's discussion
and analysis of financial condition and operations, contained in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary to present fairly the financial position and operating results for the
interim periods, have been included. The results of operations for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the entire year ending December 31, 1997.

2. Net Loss Per Common Share

The computation of net loss per share is based on the weighted average number of
common and common equivalent shares outstanding (adjusted for a 20.2225 to one
split completed in July 1995) during the period. Common stock equivalents
represent outstanding stock options and warrants which are included in the
weighted average shares pursuant to the treasury stock method. Common share
equivalents attributable to stock options issued within 12 months prior to the
initial public offering have been included in the calculation of net loss per
share as if they were outstanding for the period presented.

3. Loss of Quotation of Securities

On October 23, 1996, the Company received notification from the Nasdaq Listing
Qualifications Panel that because the Company does not currently meet the
maintenance criteria for continued listing of its Securities on The Nasdaq
Small-Cap Market ("Nasdaq"), that its Securities would be delisted from Nasdaq
effective at the close of business on October 24, 1996. Subsequent to that date,
the Securities of the Company have been quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.

4. Subsequent Events

On September 24, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire all of
the outstanding capital stock of Sonoma Holding Corp. ("Sonoma"). The
transaction, which is expected to close in January 1998, is contingent upon the
fulfillment of certain conditions by both of the parties. The Company will
account for the acquisition as a purchase.

The Company will issue 12,108,558 shares of its common stock and 100,000 shares
of its preferred stock to the shareholders of Sonoma. The former President,
Chief Executive Officer and a Director of the Company is a beneficiary of a
profit sharing plan and trust that is a shareholder of Sonoma. The preferred
shares are convertible into 30,000,000 shares of the common stock of the
Company. Additionally, the Company will issue 1,550,000 shares of its common
stock to certain creditors of the Company in full satisfaction of their claims
against the Company. The creditor group includes the former President, Chief
Executive Officer and a Director of the Company and all of the current officers
and directors of the Company. Additionally, the Company will issue 615,000
shares of its common stock to a group of individuals as a settlement of various
employment claims and as compensation for assisting in the structuring of the
transaction. Included in this group are all of the current officers and
directors of the Company.

Unaudited consolidated financial statements for Sonoma, a diversified industrial
holding company, for the six month period ending June 30, 1997 show sales of
$2,224,040 and pretax earnings of $149,919.

Item 2 --- Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Overview

The Company designed, developed, marketed and sold virtual reality products for
home use, principally headsets sold under the trademark CyberMaxx. The Company
marketed the CyberMaxx through two intensely competitive channels, both personal
computer vendors and consumer electronics vendors, that are characterized by
harsh price competition, rapidly changing product mix and short product life
cycles. The Company's first product, the CyberMaxx 120 model, was introduced in
November 1994. The Company achieved only limited sales from this product, which
has now been discontinued. In 1995 the Company shifted its primary focus to the
development of the more advanced CyberMaxx model 2.0. This model contains an
improved optics system and has 50% more pixels (picture elements) than the
Company's previous model. The Company began shipping the CyberMaxx model 2.0 in
August 1995.

The Company believes that it was the first to sell virtual reality headsets
intended for home use with a suggested retail price of less than $1,000. In
early 1996, the management of the Company concluded that its headset was not
likely to gain widespread consumer acceptance at its suggested retail price of
$889. In February 1996, the Company suspended production of the CyberMaxx model
2.0 and deferred development activities on the next generation of the CyberMaxx
headset. In March 1996, the Company lowered the price on the CyberMaxx model 2.0
for the purpose of stimulating sales at a suggested retail price of $499. In
connection with this price reduction, the Company wrote down its remaining
CyberMaxx model 2.0 inventory, including component parts, and tools and dies
associated with the production of the CyberMaxx to their estimated net
realizable value. In December 1995, a catalog retailer that previously had given
the Company purchase orders for substantially all of the Company's remaining
inventory of the CyberMaxx 120 model, canceled its purchase orders. As a result
of these cancellations and due to the lack of sales demand for this product, the
Company wrote off the remaining value associated with the CyberMaxx 120 model.
These write downs were recorded during the fourth quarter of 1996.

The Company expects that a significant portion of its future revenues, if any,
will be dependent upon the ability of its management to acquire another
operating entity to merge into the Company.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three month period ending March 31, 1997 with the three month
period ending March 31, 1996

Net sales. The Company had no sales for the three month period ending March 31,
1997. Net sales were $146,311 for the three months ending March 31, 1996. The
Company


                                       8
<PAGE>

derived revenues of $126,815 for the three months ending March 31, 1996 from the
sale of the CyberMaxx model 2.0 and revenues of $ 19,496 from the sale of other
products.

Gross profit. The Company generated no gross profit for the three month period
ending March 31, 1997. Gross profit for the three months ending March 31, 1996
was $57,556.

Selling, general and administrative. Selling, general and administrative
expenses totaled $3,017 for the three months ending March 31, 1997 compared to
$583,815 for the three months ending March 31, 1996. The 1997 expense is net of
credits totaling $29,226, which reflect the settlement of certain employee
claims for compensation accrued as of December 31, 1996. Included in the 1996
balance are sales and promotional expenses of $160,232, non sales compensation
expense of $189,589, occupancy expenses of $31,290 and legal expenses of
$20,327.

Research and development. The Company incurred no research and development
expense of the three months ending March 31, 1997. Research and development
expenses totaled $242,615 for the three months ending March 31, 1996. The
Company incurred expenses totaling $134,582 related to the development of its
virtual reality engine and the application software for Car Wars. The remaining
expense for 1996 consists primarily of the costs of the Company's support
activities and the cost of providing support to the entities developing software
for the CyberMaxx.

Interest expense. The Company incurred no interest expense for the three month
period ending March 31, 1997. The Company incurred interest expense of $526 for
the three months ending March 31, 1996.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 1997, the Company had no unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and
a net book balance overdraft of $4,450. Subsequent to December 31, 1997, the
Company settled outstanding creditor claims aggregating approximately $530,000
through the issuance of 1,550,000 shares of the common stock of the Company.
Outstanding creditor claims aggregating approximately $200,000 remain unsettled.

The Company's independent accountants have included an explanatory paragraph in
their report for the year ended December 31, 1996 making reference to the
Company's note to financial statements (Note 1), which discusses the fact that
the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1996 have
been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and
that the substantial losses from operations suffered by the Company and its
significant reliance on obtaining continued financing to satisfy its liquidity
requirements raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as
a going concern.
