                       SOUTHWARD VENTURES DEPOSITARY TRUST

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                       JUNE 30, 1998 AND DECEMBER 31, 1997

1.      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

       The accompanying financial statements are unaudited and have been
       prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
       interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q
       promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial
       statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management,
       are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of
       operations and cash flows for the periods presented. All such adjustments
       are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for interim
       periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
       a full year. The statements should be read in conjunction with the
       financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company"
       Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.

2.      COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

               PENDING LITIGATION

        In 1993, the Trust filed a complaint against an individual asserting
        claims for conversion and civil theft in relation to computer hardware
        and software which was ordered, paid for, but never delivered to the
        specified entity . The Trust did not prevail in a jury trial of the
        civil theft case. The Trust has undertaken to appeal the adverse
        decision that was entered on April 15, 1997.

        Since the Trust was not successful in that claim, the defendant's
        attorney fees and costs could be assessed against the Trust. In the
        opinion of the Trustee, it is not possible at this time to assess the
        amount of such fees and costs. However, as the matter has been
        vigorously litigated since 1993, these fees and costs could be
        substantial and have a material effect on the financial statements. A
        Motion to Tax Costs was heard on September 26, 1997. Although the
        judgement has not been entered as of this date, it is expected that the
        Defendant will be awarded against the Trust approximately $2,634 plus
        interest from the date the judgement is signed.

               BAHAMIAN REAL PROPERTY TAXES

        The Trust has been advised by the Ministry of Finance of the
        Commonwealth of the Bahamas that property taxes pertaining to lots
        located on Great Harbour Cay were not included in a prior settlement
        that was understood to encompass all of the Trusts' properties on Great
        Harbour Cay. The Trust does not currently possess sufficient information
        to reasonably estimate the amount of liability to be recorded. However,
        the Trust believes that based upon future developments and
        determinations, it is possible the amount could have a material effect
        on the financial statements.
