PREFACE


         Radiant Technology Corporation completed its fiscal 1999 year posting a
significant loss. This follows four years of high earnings before any
extraordinary items. Management attributes the loss to a significant reduction
in revenue, increased costs associated with R&D and a $100,000 increase in
marketing expense, an increase in reserves against inventory, and a major
increase in reserves for accounts receivable due to a likely write off of a
major account owed.

GENERAL:

         Radiant Technology Corporation (RTC) was incorporated in California in
1972. Its initial public offering (IPO) was in 1979. The Company is engaged in
the marketing, design, manufacture and service of highly precision thermal
processing systems that are primarily used by manufacturers of microelectronic
componentry. The Company's conveyorized (belt) ovens and furnaces are in
worldwide demand to meet ever-changing process requirements in the semiconductor
packaging, flat panel display, hybrid thick film firing, multichip module,
photovoltaic (solar cell) and printed circuit board assembly industries.

         To obtain financial growth and stability the Company concentrates on
managing the following key elements of its business:

Technological Leadership: The Company is constantly in contact with its
customers soliciting their input for both continued product improvement and new
product development. The Company encourages customers anticipating new thermal
processing requirements to contact it regarding their new opportunities and
needs. This past year, this approach has been responsible for the development of
three new products.

                                       2

The Company's new products are:
A conduction furnace for the wafer bump manufacturing step of the growing flip
chip assembly market. RTC's new TriBelt(TM) tool incorporates three conveyor
belts in series; one for each of the major stages of the wafer bump process.
This design provides a more thermally reliable and cost effective process than
other equipment being offered for the nitrogen-enhanced environment. It is
complimentary to and augments the RTC hydrogen furnaces being offered to
customers whose products require this method of production.

A new furnace extending the thermal processing range of RTC equipment from
1000(Degree)C higher to 1300(Degree)C in either a nitrogen or oxygenated
environment. Until now customers who required higher temperature furnaces where
required to look to other suppliers. Now they can stay with RTC as their
preferred and primary vendor.

A furnace incorporating ultra-violet enhanced heating in conjunction with or
separated from infrared heating. This was the result of the expression of a high
degree of interest in the potential value of UV enhancement by solar cell
industry. RTC has orders for three such systems from as many customers. The
company expects to sell other units to the industry in the near future; and also
finds requests from other customer areas interested in this new technology.

Customer Diversity: Customers from different facets of the electronics industry
are sought and maintained. As demand for the various manufacturing elements in
the electronics high technology industry shifts, RTC works to position itself to
be ready to be immediately responsive to changing market emphasis.

Service: The Company concentrates on providing timely, high quality,
responsiveness to its customer base. Most service concerns are handled by Phone,
FAX or E-mail immediately. Customer Service Engineers, when needed, are
dispatched within the day. Internationally, the Company retains Sales/Service
representatives, factory trained, to provide the same level of dedication in
placing the concerns and needs of the customer first. Modems are installed in
customers equipment, making it possible to analyze and implement customer
requests online from Company headquarters.

MARKETS AND PRODUCTS:

         The nature and high intensity of the infrared heat produced in the
Company's furnaces permits a high rate of heat absorption by the electronic
parts processed through them, making them more adaptable to the exacting
tolerances and high-speed heating requirements of certain industrial users.
Since these ovens and furnaces can be brought up to operating temperatures in a
shorter time span, operating at a faster conveyor belt speed, require less floor
space and use less electric energy, operating costs are significantly lower than
for conventional ovens and furnaces.

         The Company's near infrared processing systems are principally in
demand for the following applications:

                                       3
<PAGE>

SemiConductor Packaging: In recent years, flip chip packaging technology has
gained widespread acceptance. The first process, called wafer bumping, involves
a reflow solder process to form the solder balls on all of the input/output
(I/O) pads on the wafer. Because of the extremely small geometries involved, in
some instances this process is best accomplished in a hydrogen atmosphere. RTC
offers a high temperature furnace for this application, equipped with the
hydrogen package, providing a reflow process in a 100% hydrogen atmosphere. For
a second process, called "chip joining", RTC offers both a near infrared or
forced convection oven. RTC's D-series ovens are well suited for low temperature
curing applications such as "under-fill" epoxy or curing epoxy glob tops for
chip on board manufacturers.

       For more traditional chip packaging technologies, RTC offers an AG-series
furnace designed specifically for the silver-glass die attach process. A
critical thermal profile is required to achieve the proper mechanical and
thermal properties of the silver-glass material. Other packaging thermal
processes such as final lid sealing (metal or glass) and lead frame embed or pin
brazing are easily accomplished in RTC's furnaces.

Photovoltaics: For well over a decade, RTC has been the major supplier of
sintering furnaces used by photocell manufacturers for firing metallized inks to
form the front-side contacts and the back-side fields on the individual solar
cells. The product ideally suited for sintering of the metallized inks is our
C-series furnace. In recent years, existing RTC customers have been
experimenting with using a modified version of our S-series furnace for
phosphorus diffusion, which is the first thermal process in the manufacture of
solar cells. An extremely precise thermal process is required for phosphorus
diffusion as this step ultimately determines the cell's efficiency in generating
power when exposed to sunlight.

Flat Panel Display: While the flat panel display market has been primarily in
Japan, it is a relatively new market for US equipment manufacturers. RTC has
developed, in close cooperation with a flat panel manufacturer, one of the first
US built systems for processing large glass panels. The RTC furnace can handle
glass panels up to 58 inches wide. In addition to the challenges of achieving
uniform heating over the entire panel, there were unique mechanical challenges
for handling the large glass panels while loading and unloading the furnace.

Printed Circuit Board: RTC offers both infrared and forced convection heating
technology for printed circuit board assembly. These ovens are used for mass
reflow soldering of surface mount components to a printed circuit assembly.

Hybrid Thick Film: Hybrid thick film technology involves the firing of various
types of "inks" screen printed on ceramic substrates to form conductors and
resistors. Precise thermal profiles are required to achieve the desired resistor
value, or electrical properties of the conductors. RTC offers furnaces for
firing thick film inks in air, and for firing thick film materials in a
controlled, inert atmosphere having a low oxygen content.

                                       4
<PAGE>

Multichip Modules: Multichip module technology is an emerging packaging
technology. All RTC products can be used in some combination to manufacture a
multichip module (or package). RTC has developed an intelligent curing oven for
just this purpose where integrated sensors, through feed back mechanisms,
control the curing process in real-time.

         All systems use PCs to provide appropriate man/machine interface with
embedded microprocessors achieving precise control of thermal operations. Such
functions as power, temperature, belt speed, process gas measurement, profiling,
maintenance requirements, data logging, local and remote communications
diagnostics and operation, and computer integrated manufacturing with SECS/GEM
interface are available.

MARKETING, SALES AND CUSTOMERS

         The Company sells its products throughout the world, primarily to
organizations engaged in the manufacture of electronic components and
assemblies. RTC maintains direct sales offices in the United States.
Internationally the Company is represented through independent sales/service
organizations. Note 1 to the Financial Statements depicts a breakdown of
international sales.

         Customers evaluate furnace vendors on their technological leadership
resulting in high process yield of material produced. This primary benefit
combined with high up time, low meantime between failure, MTBF, quick reliable
service and spare parts response time combine to produce low cost of equipment
ownership.

         Two customers, AMD and AVX accounted for 18%, and 13%, respectively, of
RTC's revenue in fiscal year 1999. In 1998, they were: AMD 18%, AstroPower 11%
and Plasmaco 11%. AMD accounted for 35% of the Company's business in 1997.

         The Company does not experience a seasonal demand for its product.
Rather the demand for product, as above, is dependent on the demand for new
manufacturing equipment.

BACKLOG

         The Company regards as backlog all signed purchase orders received from
customers for delivery at specified dates. At September 30, 1999, the backlog
was $595,401 vs. $796,430 in 1998, and $1,830,640 in 1997. This backlog of
orders will be completed over a two to three month period.

         The Company's contracts include cancellation clauses, however the
Company does not generally dispute a timely cancellation provided no significant
costs have been incurred at the time of cancellation. The Company experienced a
significant contract cancellation during the past fiscal year. This cancellation
occurred after the Company had sustained significant cost expenditures. Although
the Company is most certain it would prevail in a litigation, the Company must
weigh the ultimate value of such action against costs of both money and
management time, verses other priorities. This cancellation has caused a
significant increase in reserve for accounts receivable.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

         Research and Development expenses are charged to specific product
enhancement activities and new product development. RTC's expense of $282,766,
8.5% of revenue in FY 1999, represents an absolute increase of 13.4% in product
development expenditures over the prior year. In this last year the Company
invested heavily in the development of three new products, which it hopes will
provide significant value to future years income. It is more ideal,
theoretically, to have this many new products developed over a longer period of
time. However, the opportunities of the market place dictated dedication to
increased product development at this time. In 1998 $250,964 was expended vs.
$254,461 in 1997. Sustaining engineering expenses, associated with standard
product offerings, are chargeable against present contractual activities.

COMPETITION

         The Company confronts competition from two primary domestic companies:
BTU International, and Sierra-Therm. There are numerous other competitors both
domestically and internationally.

         The Company believes that it presently is one of the principal
manufacturers of conveyorized, controlled atmosphere, variable speed, high
temperature infrared furnaces used in the manufacture of precision,
microelectronic circuitry for the semiconductor, solar cell, hybrid micro
circuits and general electronic industries. The competitive environment in the
market for ovens and furnaces is based on superior technology, design and
delivery and ultimate cost of ownership over initial purchase price. The Company
believes that its higher temperature near infrared products are more
technologically advanced than that of the conventional products of its
competitors. The Company has patents issued and pending covering the basic
technology involved in the principal markets. See "Patents" below.

MATERIAL

         The Company purchases raw materials, mechanical parts and electronic
components. It manufactures most of its sheet metal and some mechanical and
electronic components. Alternative sources of material exist for nearly all
parts, components and materials. The Company has selected a single source
supplier for much of its electronic componentry, due to high levels of quality
and service. Should this favorable condition degenerate, an alternative supplier
can be found but not without initial extra cost expenditures.

PATENTS

         The Company owns a number of current patents on its products issued
from 1983 to 1997. It also has patents pending. Its patents are the result of
its creative energies and innovative technology. RTC believes that it must
continually work to maintain technological leadership for its customer base. The
Company further believes that patents may prove creativity and provide
competitive hurdles. However, it is primarily attention to customer service with
high quality products, produced in a timely manner, ultimately providing the
customer with low cost of ownership that provides the Company its most
competitive strength.

                                       6
<PAGE>

         Three important patents relate to RTC's infrared furnace and oven

GENERAL

         The Company pioneered the design and application of near infrared high
temperature furnaces with the semiconductor manufacturing and electronics
assembly markets. RTC products are now principally used by manufacturers of
semiconductor packaging, solar cells, flat panel displays, printed circuit
boards, hybrid thick film and multichip modules. New and inventive uses of the
product line for other applications continue to be discovered.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Net sales of $3,336,674 decreased $1,349,708 or 29% for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 1999 as compared to net sales of $4,686,382 for fiscal 1998.
Net sales of $4,686,382 fiscal 1998 increased $274,348 or 6% from the fiscal
1997 level of $4,412,024.

         Fiscal 1999 was a financially disappointing year. The Company suffered
a loss of $475,820 or (0.25) per share. The decrease in sales coupled with the
discussion below regarding Cost of Sales resulted in the loss. The slowness in
the early part of the year surrounding semiconductor equipment sales in general,
coupled with no revenue generated from what is usually the emerging fruitful
sales of Asia resulted in a bleak year for income. In the light of such events,
management believed it best to increase both marketing and R&D expenditures as
preparation for the time when the market turns around and may be interested in
and or stimulated by new product offerings

         Cost of Sales increased 3% due to lower volume. Selling and G & A costs
increased $319,291 due primarily to as increase in reserve against accounts
receivable. The doubtful A/R caused by a contract cancellation was in the amount
of $191,000. Substantially all of the remaining increase in cost is the result
increased marketing activity. Although this increased activity failed to bear
fruit in FY 99, it is anticipated that the effort will be effective in the
future.

         Research and Development costs were increased both relatively and
absolutely. These costs are primarily related to the design of three new
products. These costs are essential to the Company's long term future, a future
that can move very quickly in the high technology field.

         Interest was booked as income rather than expense. Borrowing is
reserved only for short-term requirements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         During 1999, cash used in operations was $337,305., a decrease over
1998 cash generation of $600,186. The Company anticipates that it has sufficient
cash to fund planned sales growth in 2000 without any long term borrowing. There
may be occasional periods when short-term borrowing will be utilized, although
little of this type of activity is foreseen.

Year 2000, Y2K, Readiness Disclosure

The Year 2000 issue, Y2K, is the result of older computer programs being written
using two digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year. Computer
equipment, software and other devices with embedded technology that are
time-sensitive may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the
year 2000. This could result in the inability of business processes to function
correctly in the year 2000 and could have serious adverse effects on companies
and entities throughout the world.

RTC has addressed issues related to the impact of the Year 2000 in its products,
internal computer systems that handle business and engineering processes, and
suppliers. Upgrades to internal critical systems have been completed. All known
users of RTC equipment that could experience Y2K anomalies have been contacted.
Some have elected equipment up dates, some have not. All major suppliers have
warranted Y2K compliance.

Notwithstanding this planned program to make a smooth transition, there can be
no assurance that these estimates will prove to be accurate and actual results
could differ materially from those currently anticipated. Moreover, the Company
could be adversely impacted by the Year 2000 issues faced by customers, vendors,
governments and financial service organizations with which the Company
interacts.

The varying definitions of "compliance with Year 2000" and the products produced
by the Company in the past may lead to claims whose impact on the Company is not
currently estimable. The Company has product and general liability insurance
policies, which provide coverage in the event of certain product failures. The
Company has not purchased Year 2000 specific insurance because the cost is
prohibitive and likely of little value. No assurance can be given that the
aggregate cost of defending and resolving such claims will not financially
adversely affect the Company.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Radiant Technology Corporation


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Radiant Technology
Corporation as of September 30, 1999 and 1998, and the related statements of
operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the
three year period ended September 30, 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 generally accepted auditing
standards. 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 Radiant Technology Corporation
as of September 30, 1999 and 1998 and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 1999 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ------------------------------------------------

      Nature of Operations
      --------------------

      Radiant Technology Corporation (the "Company") is engaged in the
      manufacturing and marketing of infrared conveyorized ovens and furnaces
      used primarily by the microelectronics manufacturing industry.

      All of the Company's operations are located in California. Sales to
      entities located outside the United States are as follows:

      COUNTRIES                    1999            1998           1997

      Middle East                  443,178               -              -
      Pacific Rim                  178,170         847,700        616,900
      NAFTA                         38,963         116,200         52,500
                               ------------    ------------  -------------
                               $ 1,300,822     $ 1,569,700    $ 1,489,000
                               ============    ============  =============


      Revenue recognition
      -------------------

      The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon shipment or upon
      completion when the customer requests the unit to be held at the facility
      for later shipment.

      Cash and cash equivalents
      -------------------------

      For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents include time
      deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments
      with original maturities of three months or less.

      Accounts receivable
      -------------------

      The allowance for doubtful accounts includes management's estimate of the
      amount expected to be lost on specific accounts and for losses on other
      unidentified accounts included in accounts receivable. In estimating the
      allowance component for unidentified losses, management relies on
      historical experience. The amounts the Company will ultimately realize
      could differ materially in the near term from the amounts assumed in
      arriving at the allowance for doubtful accounts in the accompanying
      financial statements.

      Inventories
      -----------

      Inventories include material, direct labor and manufacturing overhead and
      are reported at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in-first-out
      method) or market. Allowances for slow moving and obsolete inventory are
      based on management's estimate of the amount considered obsolete based on
      specific review of inventory items. In estimating the allowance,
      management relies on its knowledge of the industry as well as its current
      inventory levels.

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
- ------------------------------------------------------------

      Equipment
      ---------

      Equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation
      is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
      lives of the related assets or over the lesser of the term of the lease or
      the estimated useful life for leasehold improvements.


      Intangibles
      -----------

      The cost of patents are being amortized using the straight line method
      over their estimated lives of five years. Amortization expense charged to
      operations in 1999, 1998 and 1997 was $8,716, $8,737, and $8,695,
      respectively.


      Software development costs
      --------------------------

      The Company capitalizes internal software development costs in accordance
      with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86. The
      capitalization of these costs begins when a product's technological
      feasibility has been established and ends when the product is available
      for general release to customers. The Company uses the working model
      approach to establish technological feasibility. Amortization is computed
      on an individual product group on the straight-line method over the
      estimated economic life of the product. Currently, the Company is using an
      estimated economic life of three years for all capitalized software costs.
      Amortization expense was $106,550, $63,330, and $45,363 for 1999, 1998,
      and 1997, respectively. Unamortized cost on capitalized software as of
      September 30, 1999 and 1998 was $153,237 and $181,332, respectively.


      Customer deposits
      -----------------

      The Company often requires a deposit from customers before commencing work
      on a furnace. It is the Company's policy to record the deposit as a
      receivable with a corresponding deferred liability at the time the sales
      order is written. When the deposit is received, the receivable is
      relieved.


      Income taxes
      ------------

      Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future
      years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and
      their financial reporting amounts at each year-end based on enacted tax
      laws and statutory rates applicable to the periods in which the
      differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances
      are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the
      amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents
      the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in
      deferred tax assets and liabilities.

1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
- ------------------------------------------------------------

      Earnings per common share
      -------------------------

      Earnings per common share is computed by dividing reported earnings by the
      weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective
      periods. Common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of
      earnings per share in 1999 and 1997 because the effect of including such
      equivalents in the computation would have been anti-dilutive.

      Fair value of financial instruments
      -----------------------------------

      The fair value of financial instruments, consisting principally of
      short-term debt payable is based on interest rates available to the
      Company and comparison to quoted prices. The fair value of these financial
      instruments approximates carrying value.

      Stock based compensation
      ------------------------

      The Company accounts for compensation costs related to employee stock
      options and other forms of employee stock-based compensation plans in
      accordance with the requirements of Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25
      ("APB 25"). APB 25 requires compensation costs for stock based
      compensation plans to be recognized based on the difference, if any,
      between the fair market value of the stock on the date of the grant and
      the option exercise price. In October 1995, the Financial Accounting
      Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123,
      Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS 123"). SFAS 123 established
      a fair value-based method of accounting for compensation costs related to
      stock options and other forms of stock-based compensation plans. However,
      SFAS 123 allows an entity to continue to measure compensation costs using
      the principles of APB 25 if certain pro forma disclosures are made. The
      Company adopted the provisions of pro forma disclosure requirements of
      SFAS 123 in fiscal 1997. Options granted to non-employees are recognized
      at their estimated fair value at the date of grant.

      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.

      Reclassifications
      -----------------

      Certain items in the 1997 and 1998 financial statements have been
      reclassified to conform with the 1999 presentation.

2.    CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS
- ------------------------------------------------------------

      The Company, from time to time, has cash deposits at financial
      institutions in amounts in excess of federally-insured limits. The Company
      believes that credit risk related to its cash deposits is limited due to
      the quality of the financial institutions.

      The Company's customers are located in several geographic markets,
      primarily in the United States, Middle East, Europe and Pacific Rim
      countries and are concentrated within three industries. To minimize the
      risk of loss, the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its
      customers, and may require a substantial downpayment prior to commencing
      machine production.


      Net accounts receivable by geographic markets are as follows:

               COUNTRIES                   1999                      1998

      During 1999, 1998 and 1997, the five largest customers represented 52, 53
      and 63 percent of revenues, respectively. At September 30, 1999 and 1998
      the five largest balances represented 72 and 66 percent, respectively, of
      total accounts receivable.

- -----------------------------------

      Operating leases
      ----------------

      In November 1996 the Company signed a five year lease on a building in
      Fullerton, California. Base monthly rent is $10,600 plus common area
      charges of approximately $3,400 per month. The Company also leases office
      equipment under operating leases expiring in various years through 2002.
      Minimum future lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases are:

        Year ending September 30,

                2000                                       175,968
                2001                                       175,512

                                                    ===============


      Rent expense for 1999, 1998 and 1997 was $172,228, $150,090, and $147,200,
      respectively.


      Environmental matters
      ---------------------

      The Company, like others in similar businesses, is subject to federal,
      state and local environmental laws and regulations. Although Company
      environmental policies and practices are designed to ensure compliance
      with these laws and regulations, future developments and increasingly
      stringent regulation could require the Company to make unforeseen
      environmental expenditures.

- --------------------------------------

      EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTIONS
      ----------------------

      Incentive and non-statutory option plan
      ---------------------------------------

      The Company adopted an incentive and non-statutory stock option plan which
      provides for granting options to key employees and officers. Under the
      plan, options up to 1,000,000 shares may be granted at a price not less
      than the fair market value of such shares on the date of the grant, and
      the maximum term of each option may not exceed ten years. With respect to
      any participant who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the voting
      rights of the Company's outstanding capital stock, the exercise price of
      any stock option must not be less than 110% of the fair market value on
      the date of the grant and the maximum term may not exceed five years. On
      January 22, 1998 and April 15, 1999 the Board authorized options to
      purchase 70,000 and 100,000 shares, respectively. Of these shares, 120,000
      have been granted at an exercise price that was at or above the market
      price on the date of the grant. The options vest between January 5, 2000
      and March 22, 2002 and expire three years from the vesting date.

      Non-statutory director options
      ------------------------------

      On September 30, 1996, the Company granted 20,000 non-statutory options to
      each of three outside board members. The options vested immediately and
      expire 50% at September 30, 2000 and 50% at September 30, 2001. The option
      price is $.48 per share, which was equal to the market price at the date
      of the grant.

      Lawrence McNamee
      ----------------

      On January 1, 1991, the Company and its chairman, Lawrence McNamee,
      executed a one year employment agreement wherein Mr. McNamee was granted
      six blocks of options totaling 275,350 options which amounted to 10% of
      the outstanding shares. The option price varied according to the date of
      the grant. The employment agreement provided that in the event the Company
      issued any additional (or repurchased existing) shares of common stock
      (excluding shares issued or issuable pursuant to Mr. McNamee's employment
      agreement), the number of options issued to Mr. McNamee should be
      automatically and proportionately adjusted as to preserve the ratio of ten
      percent of the outstanding common stock. Under certain conditions, Mr.
      McNamee may be issued additional options in the amount equal to five
      percent of the outstanding options and warrants excluding those belonging
      to Mr. McNamee. The exercise price of any additional options issued would
      be the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. This
      adjustment provision of Mr. McNamee's employment agreement is referred to
      as the "Adjustment" clause. During the year ended September 30, 1996 Mr.
      McNamee was granted 167,723 options under this adjustment clause, while
      248,715 of the original options expired. Option prices range from $.075 to
      $.375. In fiscal 1997, all of these options expired.

      Mr. McNamee also holds options to acquire 346,666 shares at $.075 per
      share issued to him in lieu of salary in 1992. These options have no
      expiration date.

      Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123, "Accounting for

      record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at
      fair value. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based
      compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting
      Principles Board Opinion

      Stock options (continued)
      -------------------------

      25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related
      interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is
      measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the
      Company's stock at the date of grant over the amount an employee must pay
      to acquire the stock.

      Had compensation cost for the plan been determined based on the fair value
      of the options at the grant dates consistent with the method of SFAS 123,
      the Company's net income/(loss) and earnings/(loss) per share would have
      been:



                                                         1999            1998
                                                    ------------      ----------
                Net income/(loss):

                Basic earnings per share:
                   As reported                      $     (0.25)      $     0.22

                Diluted earnings per share:
                   As reported                      $     (0.25)      $     0.18
                   Pro forma                        $     (0.27)      $     0.17



      These pro forma amounts may not be representative of future disclosures
      because they do not take into effect pro forma compensation expense
      related to grants made before 1996. In addition, potential deferred tax
      benefits of approximately $12,500, $15,000, and $19,200 in 1999, 1998 and
      1997, respectively, have not been reflected in the pro forma amounts due
      to the uncertainty of realizing any benefit. The fair value of these
      options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
      option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for
      1999, 1998 and 1997:

          Expected life (years)                           4
          Risk-free interest rate                     6.00%
          Volatility                                   100%
          Expected dividends                           None

      The weighted fair value of options granted during the years ended
      September 30, 1999 and 1998 for which the exercise price approximated the
      market price on the grant date was $.21 and $.58, respectively.

10.   INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)
- ------------------------------


      During 1998 the Company reduced the valuation allowance to reflect the
      deferred tax assets utilized in fiscal 1998. The recognized deferred tax
      asset is based upon expected utilization of the net operating loss
      carryforwards and reversal of certain temporary differences. The ultimate
      realization of the deferred tax asset will require aggregate taxable
      income of approximately $1,486,000 in future years.

      At September 30, 1999, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards
      for federal and state income tax purposes expiring as follows:

                                           FEDERAL            STATE

                                      ====================================


      Federal investment credit and other general business credit carryforwards
      total $35,600 and $105,500, respectively, and expire at various dates
      through 2003.
