                 TECHNOLOGY GENERAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Commitments and Contingencies:

On September 1, 1994, the Company received a memorandum from the United States
Depart ment of Justice outlining the terms of a contemplated settlement
relating to a toxic chemical  contamination at a former operational site of
the Company. The memorandum stipulated that  the United States Government
("USG") would receive $25,000 upon execution of the settle ment, $206,000
payable over five years and a balloon payment of $150,000 payable in five 
years. In addition, the USG would receive 60 percent of the net rental income
derived from  the formerly contaminated property and 60 percent of the net
proceeds from the sale of the  property. At December 31, 1996, the Company
established an accrual for this loss contingen cy of $368,500.

The Company is party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the ordinary
course of busi ness. While the ultimate effects of such litigation cannot
be determined at present, it is  Management's opinion, based on the advice
of legal counsel, that any liabilities which may  result from these actions
would not have a material effect on the Company's ability to operate.

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


     For the nine-month period ended December 31, 1996, Technology General 
Corporation and subsidiary had consolidated revenues of $2,316,608 and a net
income of $281,466. Technology General Corporation, operating individually
as a holding company  managing the various operating segments, does not
generate significant revenue other than  allocating management expenses to
the operating entities and leasing space to a tenant.

     The Company received $91,182 from its insurer during the current nine-month
period as reimbursement for water damage to its physical inventory and buildings
as a result of a partial roof collapse due to an ice storm which occurred on
January 14, 1996. Of this amount, $48,708 is reflected as part of "Other Income"
in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the current period, and $42,474
was offset against "Cost of Product Sales" on the fiscal year-end financial
statements of March 31, 1996.


     Additionally, a fire accidentally started by a roofing contractor on May 7,
1996 resulted in extensive damage to machinery, equipment, and inventory kept at
Precision Metal form, the division which manufactures a variety of deep-drawn
metal components. The fire destroyed a portion of the building (which is owned
by Technology General Corporation), which necessitated operations of this
division to be curtailed, resulting in loss of income. Insurance coverage is
adequate to cover the loss and repairs. The Company has received $419,455
through December 31, 1996 as partial reimbursement so that the Consolidated
Statement of Operations" reflects an aggregate of $468,163 under "Other Income".
Recovery from the insurer for business interruption loss is anticipated to
approximate $75,000.


     The Precision Metalform Division reported sales for the nine months ended
December 3, 1996 of $810,595 compared to $1,114,453 for the nine month period
ended December 31, 1995, a decrease of $303,858. As stated above, this loss of
sales was largely as a result of a fire in the building which partially
destroyed the Finishing Department, interrupt ed production and caused delays in
shipping.


     The Eclipse and Clawson Divisions operate in combination with each other,
and total sales for the nine-month period amounted to $842,588 and $248,983,
respectively, for a total of $1,091,571.

     Clawson Machine's ice crushing products featuring the patented "Plus
Crusher" are used in conjunction with major ice cube machines, primarily
Scotsman, Manitowoc, Crys tal Tips, and Ice-O-Matic. This system provides an
in-line means to intercept the flow of ice cubes in order to process them into
crushed ice during each ice cube harvest cycle. This device, which is installed
as an integral part of each ice cube machine, is used predominantly by hotels
and restaurants where large volumes of crushed ice are required.


     Clawson Machine is currently in negotiations with a dry ice blasting
company to develop an integrated dry ice shaving and blasting system which, when
completed, is expected to generate significant sales and further diversify its
product line. This division has recently submitted a design for a
manually-operated ice crusher to the National Sanitation Foundation for listing.
This will allow expansion of the crusher line into national restaurant chains.


     Eclipse Systems's sales for the nine months ended December 31, 1996
increased $84,691 or 11 percent over the comparable period for 1995. Management
expects sales to gradually increase as a result of the introduction of a new
line of industrial mixers and con tinued growth in its new EnviroFlo industrial
line of "inplant" pollution-control systems. The division has recently designed
and developed a special line of chemical mixers, which are expected to generate
increased sales in the air-driven mixer market.

annum.

31, 1996.

1996 amounted to $98,060, of which $84,758 is reflected under "Cost of Rentals"
and the remainder of $13,302 is shown as a separate line item within "Other
Income (Expense)".


     Net Income/Loss. Net income for the nine months ended December 31, 1996,
amounted to $281,466, an increase of $271,603 over the comparable nine-month
period in 1995.
